The extraordinary daily life of people with super powers

After she guessed the ball, the faceless man wanted to move the ball away, but she knocked him down with a sword.

Seeing that her cheating had failed, no matter how angry the Faceless Man was, he could only let her pass.

"Are you two new here? Is Paradise Game Hall recruiting again?" Wu Yuyang asked.

A year ago, she came to this strange place. According to the old people who had been here before, the Paradise Game Hall would continue to recruit new people.

But since she came, she hasn't seen a single new person.

If she hadn't been so determined and hadn't had the resolve to get out no matter what, it would have been hard for her to endure the loneliness of that year.

Maybe he would choose to commit suicide like those people who stayed on the fourth floor before.

But even so, she felt that she could not hold on any longer.

"How long have you been here?" Tang Ansheng asked instead of answering her question.

Wu Yuyang frowned. He was the one who asked the question first, but the other party answered the question with a question.

But thinking that he would need their help to pass the fourth level, he answered, "About a year. I don't know the exact time. I can only make a rough record."

"You have been alone all this time?"

"Well, the fourth level is not something that one person can pass." Wu Yuyang said.

Before she came up, there were still a few people on the fourth floor. They told her that two masters had already brought a large number of people to the fifth floor before her, but they finally retreated and chose to stay.

Wu Yuyang cleared many game levels on the fourth floor and accumulated enough coins to enter the fifth floor, but found that he still needed to clear the level at the staircase.

The level at the staircase was not designed to be passed by one person.

She originally wanted to take one person with her to challenge the level, but she didn't expect that the few people left behind would eventually suffer a mental breakdown and choose to commit suicide.

So she was trapped on the fourth floor, which is commonly known as a stuck level.

"Very good. You have lived alone for a year, but your spirit has not collapsed and you can still communicate with others normally." Tang Ansheng praised, "I am very optimistic about you."

In fact, Lu Lixin has good will, which is why Tang Ansheng keeps him by his side.

"You..." Wu Yuyang didn't expect the other party to speak to her in such a condescending tone.

You know, her kendo skills are already top-notch among ordinary people, and there is no one who can surpass her.

Why is this person so... arrogant?

"That's right, let's go. There's nothing fun here. Let's go to the fifth floor." Tang Ansheng said.

I walked around the fourth floor to see if there were any alive, and now it seemed there was only one.

Since there is no one else, of course I should complete the game as soon as possible.

After all, the Paradise Game Hall said on the notice on the first floor that it was reopening. It was impossible for it to reopen with Tang Ansheng alone.

Solve this problem as soon as possible, go back to eat earlier, and prevent more innocent people from being involved.

"Do you know what the pass items on the fourth floor are?" Wu Yuyang quickly followed Tang Ansheng and asked.

This person seemed very unusual to her.

If a normal newcomer came here and found an old man, he would definitely ask for all kinds of information to increase his chances of survival.

But when the man in front of her came, he didn't ask anything, just praised her for her good will, and then went to challenge her.

This kind of person is either extremely confident in his own abilities or has a problem with his brain.

"I don't know, but if I don't know, can I not go for it?" Tang Ansheng said, "I don't think there is such a rule in the Paradise Game Hall."

“……”Wu Yuyang was speechless.

Well, this person has a problem with his brain.

Lu Lixin on the side wanted to speak, but did not dare to interrupt.

There is no doubt that Tang Ansheng is a big shot, and the way the woman in white dodged the iron ball just now is not something that ordinary people can do. It is obvious that she is an expert.

When experts are talking to each other, he should just keep his mouth shut.

"Don't tell me this is how we got to the third floor." Wu Yuyang said.

"About that." Tang Ansheng answered casually.

His completely nonchalant tone made Wu Yuyang a little annoyed.

"It seems that someone came up through a loophole. I thought the fourth floor was the same as the third floor, and I could find a loophole there." Wu Yuyang thought.

She thought carefully about the Three Immortals Cave on the third floor later. No normal person would have her reaction speed to know which bowl the ball was hidden in.

Even if there was, he wouldn't have the execution power to knock the ball out of the faceless man's hand.

If this is the case, doesn't it mean that most people won't be able to pass?

She knew that two masters had led a large number of people into the fifth level, but she didn't believe that so many people could surpass her in reaction speed and kendo skills.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, they found a loophole in the game.

"The three immortals return to the cave. Just turn over the two empty bowls. Whether the remaining bowl has a ball or not, the one that remains must have a ball."

"A normal person can come up with such a simple solution, but under the pressure of the Faceless Man, it is difficult to think calmly."

Wu Yuyang thought in her heart, although she was a little uncomfortable with Tang Ansheng's attitude, she still said: "My name is Wu Yuyang, the level on the fourth floor is very special, and it requires at least two people to cooperate."

"It's a game called Medusa."

"Medusa?" Lu Lixin was surprised. "Is she the snake lady in mythology who turns anyone she glares at to stone?"

Wu Yuyang just glanced at him and then turned to look at Tang Ansheng.

Of the two people, she could tell at a glance that Tang Ansheng was the one who made the decision, while Lu Lixin was just a follower.

Moreover, she seemed to have seen the other party on the second floor, so she was quite capable to be alive until now. But to be honest, those who chose to stay were cowards who did not have the courage to follow the two masters upstairs.

Not worth her second glance.

"That is a snake-man statue named Medusa. The rules of the game are that players need to keep staring at each other's eyes. Once they look away, they will be frightened by it."

Tang Ansheng said: "It's quite interesting. It's exactly the opposite of the myth."

Legend has it that if you look directly into Medusa's eyes, you will be petrified, but in this game, if you don't look directly into her eyes, you will be petrified... Hmm? Not petrified?

"What do you mean by deterrence?"

Wu Yuyang replied: "I didn't know what it was at first, but after experiencing it myself, I realized that this shock would cause fear in the hearts of the participating players."

"And it will amplify this fear, making you unable to move your body due to fear, and losing your calm judgment and ability to act."

These are all experiences and should not be spoken out directly.

But Wu Yuyang had stayed on the fourth floor long enough and wanted to go to the fifth floor, so she chose to tell everything in order to improve the survival ability of these two people.

"Ah, what happens after losing these abilities?" Lu Lixin asked.

It sounds like the third level is not as dangerous as before, because if the third level fails, you will be eaten by the Faceless Man.

But at the moment, it seems to be just fear?

Isn't it just fear? Lu Lixin has been frightened since he was a child and has a lot of experience.

Wu Yuyang took a deep breath and said, "The things you fear will appear. For example, if you are afraid of snakes, then when you are shocked by Medusa, you will see many snakes attacking you."

"The more fear you have, the more you lose your judgment, the more snakes there will be."

"Once you get hurt in the illusion, it will be reflected in your body."

Wu Yuyang said: "Just imagine how it feels like to have thousands of snakes gnawing at your heart."

"hiss!"

Lu Lixin took a deep breath. He had been afraid of snakes since he was a child. If countless snakes surrounded him and bit him, he would rather die than choose this.

"Well... besides being afraid of snakes, I'm also afraid of ghosts. In that case, will both of them come together?" Lu Lixin asked weakly.

Wu Yuyang thought for a moment and said, "No, only the one you fear the most will transform."

"Is that so? Then which one are you most afraid of?" Lu Lixin asked.

Wu Yuyang's expression changed, and he snorted coldly, "Hmph, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

She looked at Tang Ansheng and said, "Well, I have explained it in detail enough. I am sincere. Let's work together."

"You can talk about what you are good at and what you fear. Medusa's shock is not mandatory. As long as you have a strong will, you can get out of the illusion."

Tang Ansheng looked at her and said, "According to what you said, wouldn't it be enough to just keep staring at Medusa's eyes?"

Yup!

Lu Lixin on the side reacted and realized that if he didn't look into Medusa's eyes, he would fall into hallucinations, so why not just stare at her?

"No." Wu Yuyang shook his head. "Blinking once means you're not staring. You have to keep staring. And that corridor is very long. It's almost impossible not to blink."

"Of course, this problem can be solved. If it doesn't work, just sew the upper eyelid on with needle and thread."

When Wu Yuyang said this, his expression remained calm, as if it was just a trivial matter like drinking water.

"It's just that there is more than one statue of Medusa. There is one at the end of the corridor, and there is also one above the beginning of the corridor!"

This was something she couldn't accomplish on her own.

Although she is strong-willed and can withstand the illusion, the illusion also hinders her progress.

At present, it is basically impossible to move forward despite the fear in your heart.

After all, that is the most fearful thing in a person's heart. Can fear that can be overcome still be called fear?

"Oh." Tang Ansheng nodded.

His indifferent look made Wu Yuyang a little confused. Did this mean he agreed or not?

"Medusa's shock can sharpen one's will, but if one fails to do so, it is easy to die in the illusion."

"So I suggest that we sew the upper and lower eyelids together with needle and thread, and then the three of us walk over back to back."

"Originally, two people were enough, but now there are three, so the margin for error has greatly increased."

When Lu Lixin heard that he needed to have his eyelids sewn, his eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

He was very afraid of pain, so even when he went to the hospital for an injection, he didn't dare to just watch.

"Is that the Medusa statue you were talking about?" Tang Ansheng suddenly said, pointing ahead.

"Ah."

"How many coins do you have on you now?" Tang Ansheng asked.

Wu Yuyang replied: "I know what you mean. The coins are enough for the three of us to go upstairs."

"That's fine."

Tang Ansheng nodded and stretched out his hand to take the black sword in Wu Yuyang's hand.

"You..." Wu Yuyang was shocked. She didn't even realize how the other party did it. "How is it possible?"

Wu Yuyang stared at Tang Ansheng intently.

Could it be that this extremely arrogant man is a super kendo master?

"I'll go take a look first."

"This guy!"

Seeing Tang Ansheng's indifferent look, Wu Yuyang thought to himself: "Forget it, let him suffer a little. At worst, I can rush over to rescue him later."

She took a deep breath and said, "No, I'm not afraid of that anymore. I'm not the same person I used to be."

The fact that she was able to endure a year of loneliness alone was largely due to the intimidation of Medusa.

As long as you can survive in the illusion, your spiritual willpower will be greatly enhanced.

Then, Wu Yuyang saw Tang Ansheng walk over and chop the Medusa statue near the corridor into pieces with one sword.

"It's useless. I've done this before, and it will recover in due time, unless you also chop up the Medusa statue at the end of the corridor."

"But how can we get to the innermost part...?!"

Wu Yuyang saw Tang Ansheng walk to the innermost part as if nothing had happened, and then cut the statue in half with a sword.

"Let's go, everything is fine now, let's go to the fifth floor." Tang Ansheng's voice came.

Lu Lixin looked left and right, and finally chose to believe what Tang Ansheng said.
