The floor could not be pushed back, and the eight teammates on the stairs were racing against time. The first one to reach the sixth floor was Hong Guoguo. After he reached the position, he did not dare to jump over but moved up a little.
Qingfeng shouted, "Guozi, jump boldly, I will catch you!"
"Catch that shit, get out of the way, don't delay my performance!" Hong Guoguo said as he ran, glancing at the sideways floor getting closer and closer. Only then did he dare to jump on the reversed stairs and landed steadily on the sixth floor.
After him, "Zhi Ge", "Huo Shu Yin Hua", "Apple" and "Cantaloupe" also came one after another.
At this time, the extended floor was only 2 meters away from the stairs, and there were only Xingzhiwujiu and Kugua left on the stairs.
Watermelon ran over: "Where is Boss Bitter Melon!"
Huo Shu Yin Hua shouted anxiously: "It's on the fifth floor, but it's a bit far away!"
Su Mo's heart tightened. He quickly walked to the edge of the extended floor and looked at Yu Zhen who was moving quickly on the stairs.
At this time, Bitter Melon, who was originally on the fifth floor, moved to the edge of the stairs, as if he wanted to jump down, which scared several teammates.
"Boss Kugua, don't forget to jump down if you feel upset!" As soon as Hong Guoguo shouted, Kugua really jumped out from the edge of the stairs, and everyone looked over nervously. The next second, the formation master stepped on the railing and jumped up, landing lightly on the sixth floor, and the flying rope in his hand suddenly shrank at this time, directly pulling up the bitter melon below.
The two of them successfully entered the sixth floor at the last moment before the floor closed.
Bitter Melon heaved a sigh of relief after landing, "Who called me just now? Xingzhi was worried that I would get stuck in the stairs with the flying rope, so he asked me to wait for the right moment to jump out so that he could pull me up." He looked at Yu Zhen who was collecting the rope and said, "The flying rope is really useful for short distances."
Yu Zhen looked behind him, "The stairs have stopped."
At this time, the floor of the sixth floor had completely closed, and the murals were all bright. Because the floor was laid horizontally in the middle, the distance between the sixth and seventh floors was instantly shortened by half. Now, they could easily jump to the seventh floor with Qinggong. The spiral staircase in the middle of the tower stopped rotating, and the horizontal plane of the sixth floor completely cut off the lower five floors. Now they seemed to have reached a new first floor.
"Rest where you are, don't go up to the seventh floor."
Su Mo jumped onto the stairs right after he finished speaking. The stairs that stopped rotating had no deterrent effect, and climbing up became easier. When he reached the seventh floor, it was completely dark. This kind of darkness was different from the previous darkness. There was clearly light from the sixth floor mural below, but he just couldn't see the stairs going up clearly, and could only grope his way forward bit by bit.
When he was about to reach the eighth floor, he missed a step and fell down. The originally irregular stairs underwent subtle changes at this time. His lamp staff did not stay in place and he fell directly from the eighth floor to the sixth floor where his teammates were. His health dropped by 40%.
The movement caught the attention of teammates and scared them.
Su Mo had never fallen so hard before, and he was stunned for a moment while lying on the ground. It was not until Yu Zhen's hand appeared in front of him that he reacted.
Yu Zhen pulled him up, his eyes darkened: "What's wrong?"
"I was careless." Su Mo said in a deep voice, "The staircase goes all the way to the seventh floor, and there is no way back. I guessed right earlier."
The lower five floors disappeared because the floors merged, and the stairs leading up were gone too, so how could they get to the tenth floor
Hong Guoguo felt that her smart little brain was not enough at this time. She followed her elder brother all the way here, but was still confused. "Brother, can you just tell me what this Senluo Tower game is about? I feel like I'm solving a puzzle, and then I feel like I'm doing parkour."
"Simply put, this is a mission tower."
Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "Based on the inference from the first six floors, the mechanism is that 13579 is a single-layer tower and various monsters will appear to attack us, and the system will issue a task to 'stop them'. 246810 will have props or mechanisms that can deal with them, and once completed, a prompt will pop up saying 'You are so smart'. It is estimated that we can only reach the tenth floor after completing 5 tasks."
Hong Guoguo said, "Oh, I understand. Looking at a single-layer mural means accepting a mission, and looking at a double-layer mural means handing in a mission, right?"
Su Mo responded casually: "Almost."
Hong Guoguo became curious: "What will happen if we don't do the mural mission? Will our team be wiped out?"
"It was unclear just now, but it is clear now." Su Mo pointed at the stairs, "Ten of us are going up the stairs in reverse, and there is no mechanism on the sixth floor to stop the rotation. The steps of the stairs will change in the dark. Even if we reach the eighth floor without any danger, what do you think will happen in the end?"
Hong Guoguo asked: "Fall down?"
Yu Zhen continued what Su Mo said: "The last road will disappear, and ten people will fall from a high place. We will be wiped out."
"Yes, I just fell down and lost 40% of my health." Su Mo looked at Hong Guoguo and calculated for him: "According to the full blood deduction, 40% was lost on the 2nd floor, and you dropped from the 8th floor to the 1st floor. You still owe the main brain 60% of your health."
Now the other people in the group were terrified. At the beginning, they did find the murals troublesome and wanted to go up the stairs directly in the dark.
Even someone with such strong skills would fall down, let alone them. If a group of people came down, they could declare the failure of the Senluo Tower challenge in advance.
"I have another question." Apple said, "What's with the even-numbered layers? Why did you say you had to imagine it? I didn't seem to be thinking about anything when I pulled out a bucket. Does the mural appear based on what we think?"
Su Mo laughed when he heard this: "That's not it."
Qingfeng and Xigua were stunned for a moment. They had been thinking about it for a long time, and finally Qingfeng came up with the idea of using bricks to make a new floor.
"The content of the mural is fixed. All you have to do is guess the content of the mural to light it up." Yu Zhen added, "He asked you to imagine because you said you couldn't understand it, so he made it simpler and just asked you to imagine and describe it. As long as what you say is similar, the system will judge it as successful and the mural will light up."
Qingfeng: "Brother, do you look down on us so much?"
watermelon:"… "
"No." Su Mo glanced at Yu Zhen and said to Qing Feng, "Aren't you smart and timely?"
This clever and timely move really hurt Qingfeng's heart. The group rested on the sixth floor and looked at the dark seventh floor. For a moment, they didn't know what to do next.
"What's next?" asked Bitter Melon.
Su Mo looked at the time and said, "Let's take a break first and have lunch before we continue."
Everyone then looked at the system time and discovered that the time outside was approaching 10:30 on the capital planet. As soon as 11 o'clock arrived, the commander had to go offline to rest.
"Then shall we play cards?" Huoshuyinhua said excitedly, "The lights are on here too, we can play some cards."
Hearing about playing cards, Hong Guoguo was the most excited. "Come on, come on, how many tables can we open here?"
Hamigua was traveling with a tour group for the first time. He had only heard about it before, but now he saw the darkness above him. The murals lit up all around him were very strange, and there were candles on the walls. It looked like a place where horror scenes could happen at any time. This group of people actually wanted to play cards in this environment. He looked at Hong Guoguo and said, "Weren't you very scared before..."
"Why am I afraid?" Hong Guoguo set up the card table. "You can't be afraid of making money. Why are you afraid of so many people?"
Hami melon heard this and immediately said, "Count me in. I'll show you my card counting skills today."
"Let me count how many tables are available..." Hong Guoguo was calling people, "Is Brother Xing coming?"
Yu Zhen raised his hand to refuse, "You guys go ahead."
He saw the murals on the sixth floor and followed them.
The mural illuminated most of the area, making this floor of the eerie Senluo Tower brightly lit. Most of the people in the team were old acquaintances. Seeing Xiao Hongguo set up the card table and eight people formed two tables, Kugua took out his leisure lounge chair and placed it next to Xigua, ready to start giving instructions. He also put out his holiday pergola for everyone to have tea and rest.
Su Mo still had some time before he would log off, so he came to see the murals on the sixth floor.
Most of the mural on the sixth floor was separated. From the current angle, there was indeed nothing obvious on the mural. Qingfeng was quick enough to figure out that it was something like bricks.
Yu Zhen switched to the nearby voice and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What are your plans next?"
Su Mo saw the people standing side by side and suddenly asked, "Brother, you jumped before me just now, are you ready to catch me?"
The time it took to jump from the fourth floor to the stairs was short and quick. If Yu Zhen hadn't been prepared in advance, it would have been impossible for him to react in such a short time and successfully catch him.
Yu Zhen responded: "Yeah."
Asking is one thing, hearing the response is another.
Su Mo tilted his head slightly, meeting Yu Zhen's gaze, and said, "I want to eat fish tonight, is that ok?"
"Your meat intake for three meals this week is a bit too much, so fish is not allowed for the time being."
Yu Zhen finished speaking and said, "But you can drink fish soup."
Su Mo asked again: "Then come to my house to play games tonight?"
Yu Zhen paused for a moment and replied, "Come."
When the two of them were alone, they started to whisper more and more.
As he was talking, Su Mo returned to the question that Yu Zhen asked him at the beginning.
"We need to split into two teams. The first team will open the murals on the seventh floor, and the other team will try to get to the eighth floor." Su Mo called up the drawing board and simply drew the terrain inside the Senluo Tower. "The flood on the fourth floor and the floor on the sixth floor are actually obstacles to us. If we don't keep up, we will most likely be trapped by the floor and drown on the next five floors. The setting of the main brain is not that simple, so the monsters on the seventh and ninth floors will probably be difficult, and there may also be traps on the eighth and tenth floors."
Yu Zhen pointed on his drawing board, "Team 1 will open the 7th floor mural, and Team 2 will wait for an opportunity to act. Team 1 needs to have a highly flexible profession, but Team 2 doesn't need to, but they need to keep two more clever ones. Do they need to bring a healer?"
Su Mo added on the drawing board: "Bring one. Fruits move faster than cantaloupes. Bring a healer."
Yu Zhen: "Then we can allocate it like this..."
Not far away, the people playing cards unconsciously turned their eyes to the other side.
Everyone at the table wasn't paying attention to the card table, but instead was focusing on the two big guys.
Hong Guoguo quietly switched to a nearby voice chat and asked, "What's going on between the two of them? What can't be said in the group? Did they start a private chat?"
"I think they've been acting weird lately. Last time, Brother Xing didn't come to the dungeon, so Big Brother just slacked off." Qingfeng poked his head over from the next table and whispered, "Also, hasn't Big Brother been online recently? I often see Brother Xing browsing the material stalls, collecting some upgrade materials for his pets. Brother Xing's pets are all maxed out and have all the skills, so why is he collecting upgrade materials? After thinking about it, the only pet in our group that hasn't reached max level is the elf that Big Brother opened last time."
"She's called the Spirit of Flowers and Grass." Hong Guoguo perked up instantly and said, "Could it be that Big Brother asked Brother Xing to collect them? No, no, the day before yesterday, Big Brother asked me in the group if I had any food materials before he came online. I said he'd come to me to get them when he came online, but he hasn't asked me to get them yet."
Apple: "Fuck, are all the flower and grass spirits maxed out?"
Bitter Melon moved the recliner closer.
Hong Guoguo stole a few glances and said, "I don't know! My brother rarely releases the spirit of flowers and plants."
Huo Shu Yin Hua said: "I seemed to see him release it just now, but I didn't notice its shape."
Hami melon saw this kind of scene for the first time and exclaimed, "Is it so exciting?"
This sound appeared in the team voice chat, and instantly attracted the attention of the two people next to the mural. The two big guys cast their eyes at the same time, and the people at the two card tables instantly became nervous. Fortunately, the other party just glanced at them and thought they were playing cards, and their attention quickly returned to the mural. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to gather for discussion.
Apple slapped Hami melon on the back of his head: "Brother, don't you switch to voice when you are whispering?"
Hami melon quickly apologized: "This is my first time listening to live gossip, I'm not very experienced."
At this time, Xigua suddenly asked, "Has anyone touched the head?"
"Wow, you've become braver after not seeing you for a few days!" Hong Guoguo: "Who dares to touch my big brother's head? Aren't you afraid that my big brother will knock his head off?"
"Oh." Xigua pointed to the opposite side, "There's a guy on the opposite side who wasn't hit in the head."
The group of people were busy discussing and didn't react for a moment. They looked in the direction Xigua pointed and saw the scene next to the mural.
The formation master and the summoner had a height difference, one was a man and the other was a teenager. At this time, the formation master's hand was on the top of the young summoner's head and rubbed it. His lips moved slightly as if he was saying something, and the summoner seemed to respond. This scene lasted for a few seconds, and soon the summoner disappeared beside the formation master.
“!!!!”

Su Mo took a break after lunch and told Lele that Yu Zhen would be coming to his house in the evening. He left the rest to Lele. When he came online again, he suddenly found that his teammates looked at him with a different expression. He frowned slightly and looked at the others, "Is there something on my face?"
Several people suddenly said in unison: "No."
Su Mo looked at Yu Zhen in surprise, and the latter shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.
He didn't take it seriously and made the arrangements according to the plan he discussed with Yu Zhen in the morning: "Divide into two teams, Team 1 on the 7th floor, Team 2 ready to go to the 8th floor at any time. Team 1: Xingzhi Wuji, Zhige, Xigua and Hongguoguo. Team 2: Apple, Huoshuyinhua, Qingfeng, Bitter Melon and Hami Melon."
Kugua asked, "How are our 2nd team going to get to the 8th floor?"
The members of Team 2 looked at the commander. There was no staircase on the 8th floor. Even if they followed the previous rules, they had to light up the mural on the 8th floor before the corresponding staircase would light up.
Su Mo said: "Jump from the seventh floor."
He sent the staircase diagram to his teammates. "The place I marked is the last position of the 7th floor. The staircase disappears in the second half of the 7th floor, about 1 meter away from the 8th floor. From this position, you can try to jump to the 8th floor. As long as you grab the edge, you will have a chance to go up. This is not a spiral staircase. Stand at the edge and use Qinggong to jump. With your skills, you should have no problem jumping over."
In the Strange Stories copy, the Great Qinggong is banned, but it is not a problem to jump over it with the Small Qinggong.
Team 2: “…”
Wouldn’t it be so embarrassing if I couldn’t jump over it
Watermelon patted Apple on the shoulder and said, "Come on."
Apple: "How about you dance?"
Xigua said expressionlessly: "I am in Team 1 now."
The people in Team 2 quickly ran to the stairs, ready to try to jump to the next level.
The distance between the 6th and 7th floors was shortened by at least half because of the horizontal stone slab. Su Mo led the members of Team 1 to the edge, and the five of them jumped up directly using light skills.
As soon as they reached the 7th floor, they saw almost darkness. There was only the flickering candlelight in front and the murals were dimly visible.
There was no wind in the Senluo Tower, but the candles were swaying happily, as if they had been waiting for a long time. This scene was completely different from the lower floors. A gloomy feeling spread around, and the flickering murals gave them a bad premonition.
Hong Guoguo quietly moved in that direction and whispered, "7 seems to be a bad number."
"Just think of it as opening the fourth floor of the mural. Once we open it, we'll have cleared the level." Xigua continued, "If everything goes well, we can complete a strange challenge today. The sooner we finish it, the sooner we can relax."
Hong Guoguo looked at Xigua: "Xigua, you have become more confident."
watermelon:"… "
Su Mo released two summoned beasts in succession. He remembered Qingfeng saying that he was attacked by something on the 7th floor. The murals here might be opened automatically. He stared at the flickering candlelight in front of him and said, "The murals here are not simple. Pay attention to the surrounding situation at all times and don't stray too far away from your teammates."
After the commander's voice was spoken, the members of Team 1 did not dare to be careless and quickly moved towards their teammates.
Team 1 has already reached the 7th floor, and Team 2 has just reached the take-off point of the command painting.
The fireworks climbing the stairs glanced at the dark 7th floor and said enviously, "Ah, if I move faster I can also join Team 1."
Apple pushed him up and said, "Why are you envious? The 7th floor may not be more comfortable than ours. Didn't you hear what Qingfeng said before? It's like something suddenly appeared."
Qing Feng also responded: "Yes, yes, it will come out and plot against you. I was knocked down 7 floors by it before."
As he was speaking, Huo Shu Yin Hua had reached the take-off point. He aimed at the platform on the 8th floor opposite and prepared to jump. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye he saw two figures flying out from the 7th floor one after the other, like a bird with broken wings drawing a parabola in the air.
The two teams were attracted by the scene, and their eyes followed the two parabolas one after the other. Then two new prompts popped up in the team -
Member Zhi Ge has died.
A big watermelon of the group member has died.
"Wow—" Huoshuyinhua exclaimed, "Is the 7th floor so exciting?"
The author has something to say: Fireworks: Wow, so exciting.
Captain Kugua of Team 2: Well, try your best to jump to 8 floors and don’t fall down.
