The villain's daily corpse collection
Chapter 167 Entering the Building
The leader of the caravan looked back in the direction of the sound. He recognized Wang Wei and Jun Zhao. He had met them once when he entered the city last time.
He had met many people, but the appearance of these two people really gave people an extraordinary feeling. Especially the woman, she had a temperament that was not like that of an ordinary person. Now that these words were spoken, it further confirmed his guess.
"My wish is very simple. I hope that we, the Red Queen people, can live a better life. I hope that all the monsters here will disappear! No more cannibalism!" The caravan leader spoke bluntly. His voice was a little loud and startled the people next to him who were frantically stuffing food into their mouths.
"Great! I can help you realize your wish. Now I need you to do something for me." Wang Wei looked at him, and then at the people in the caravan who were gradually taking their places behind him. "They... are all trustworthy people."
There were more than ten people behind the caravan leader, both men and women, mostly young and middle-aged. Wang Wei glanced at them and nodded slightly.
"Don't worry, they are my capable partners, and they are all very reliable people." The leader of the caravan patted his chest and assured him. He turned around and looked at everyone, and they all nodded. The reason why Wang Wei decided to trust these people was not because they were trustworthy, but because of some information she judged from their eyes.
These people came here in pursuit of a better life - like this leader, they were not like the others, who were pursuing the ultimate indulgence.
The leader said that they went out of the city to investigate the monsters. Because of the monsters, there were some large and small sacrificial ceremonies in the city, but the monsters still entered the city from time to time to attack lone mortals. They could only go out to explore and then come back to rest and replenish. Over and over again, they did not find a way to crack it. They were guided to the city lord's mansion by their dreams to ask for a wish, so they came here. After listening to this, Wang Wei felt that the city lord's mansion was the most bizarre place.
There were indeed people blocking the way downstairs of Wutian Building, but it was just a formality. Wang Wei made the guards make way with just a few words. This also proved his idea from the side that the things he wanted to find and the way out must be in this building, not outside. The outside was just a trick to make people relax their vigilance.
Faced with so many floors, she could only resort to the human wave tactic. She made some inquiries and came to the conclusion that the floors above the 30th floor were sealed, so she basically had to search the 30th floor.
Wang Wei gave everyone a talisman to facilitate communication, and then she called the people behind her to come in and start the treasure hunt. The artifacts she described to everyone were also very simple and common. As long as it looked like an eye, she could send a message to her and she could see what they were holding in their hands.
Someone asked what this trick was? Wang Wei gave a unified answer: "This is the only way to kill those monsters. You have seen my strength last time." The leader nodded in approval, and Wang Wei continued, "Find it and give it to me. I can help you kill all the monsters surrounding the Red Queen City."
The deal was reached. Seeing that no one had any objection, Wang Wei led a team of more than a dozen people into Wutan Tower. Someone behind them saw it and wanted to go in, but was stopped by the guards outside the door.
The guard asked, "Before the hour of You, anyone who enters Wutian Tower cannot have their wish fulfilled. Does this distinguished guest also want to enter in advance?"
"They have all gone in, why don't they let us in? Is there something good they're not telling us?" Someone was making trouble at the door.
"You can enter now if you are willing to give up everything you have got."
"With so many of them, are they willing to give up? I don't believe it!"
"Then you can also try to go upstairs." The guard did not argue forcefully, but made a friendly invitation gesture. The man snorted coldly, stopped making trouble, and went downstairs to continue his pleasure and satisfy his desires, and in his heart he despised those who went upstairs.
Wang Wei arranged two floors for each person, and he was going to go to the 30th floor to explore what secrets this place had. Jun Zhao followed closely behind, and Wang Wei said bluntly: "The 30th floor is the safe place, other places are not guaranteed, what can you do if you follow up?"
"I am born with extraordinary perception, and my memory contains an endless source of power. Although I cannot use it, it is no problem for me to help you explore the way." Jun Zhao said so, and Wang Wei naturally followed.
Entering the building is a dark corridor. From the outside, you can't tell its length, but from the inside, it feels like it stretches infinitely. Everyone was a little scared at first, but after Wangwei used his spiritual power to illuminate the way ahead, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, some people still screamed out: "What is that!"
What comes into view is a main hall arranged like an ancestral hall, with a majestic statue in the middle. The statue is huge, at least ten stories high, and the building is hollow so the statue can stand inside.
The statue lowered its head, giving off a sense of oppression as it looked down upon the beings below. There were also many strange and clever red strings around it, loosely wrapping the statue's limbs, with the ropes hanging in the dark air. There was no wind in the room, and the red strings did not move at all, quietly blending into the darkness.
"It's just a statue. Everyone, remember your mission. We are running out of time." Wang Wei reminded them. She had a stone in her arms that would light up in the next hour. If the stone started to glow, it meant the countdown was over.
Everyone ran up to their assigned floors and began to explore. Wang Wei grabbed Jun Zhao and flew up. The stairs were completely cut off after the 30th floor, making it impossible for ordinary people to reach them.
When someone was rummaging through something, he accidentally touched a mechanism, and a red string hanging on the statue suddenly broke, and the string floated back to the ground.
Because it was too light, it did not attract anyone's attention.
There was nothing on the top, but Wang Wei used the light of spiritual power to search around. Jun Zhao saw the painting carved on the rock wall between the flashes of light and shadow. Although there were only some simple lines, it was not a difficult problem for Jun Zhao, who had seen many strange murals in the heavens.
"This mural tells a myth that is popular here," Jun Zhao explained slowly. "It says that there is a god protecting this place. This god is willing to stay here because he made a promise to a human being."
"So, does it have something to do with my eyes? We don't have time to read any legends. It's more important to get out alive." Wang Wei flew up a few more floors, and Jun Zhao had to follow him.
"Maybe this is the source of our real solution to the problem?" Jun Zhao persuaded, he opened the fire stick and continued to study the paintings.
At this time, the talisman in Wang Wei's hand began to flash.
