297 Hidden Mysteries
“Please listen to the rules.”
The strange man smiled as he opened his duck mouth. “There are two rules,” he said as he read aloud.
“First, no communication is allowed between the beginning and the end of my announcement.
“Second, you are not allowed to reveal your answers in any way before answering three questions correctly.
“Any violation of the rules will result in immediate failure and the cancellation of the final clearance reward.
“The rules have been announced. The question-and-answer session will officially begin.
“Please listen to the question!”
The Duckbill Beast paused.
He glanced at the three people.
He found that they were listening very seriously.
He nodded in satisfaction and continued to read.
“May I ask which of you is a woman?”
Wang Wen and the other two looked at each other.
Zhu Xingguo muttered, “Is this really a free-pass level?”
Wang Wen shook his head.
He thought about it.
He interrupted Duckbill Beast, saying, “There are three of us. If everyone answers correctly, does that mean we have answered all three questions correctly?”
The strange man grinned. “All three of you must answer correctly to be considered correct. If one of you makes a mistake, it will be considered a wrong answer.”
Wang Wen turned to Zhu Xingguo and said, “It seems like it’s not a free level. Otherwise, it will let us pass easily. It looks like there’s a mystery here. Be careful!”
Zhu Xingguo nodded.
“You may begin!”
The strange man finally spoke.
A blue light screen appeared in front of each of the three people, and there was a sentence on the screen. [Please fill in the name of the tower climber.]
When he saw that…
Wang Wen’s heart skipped a beat.
He turned to face Zhu Xingguo, Ren Ruoruo, and the other man.
Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo also looked back at him with complicated expressions.
As expected!
So that was the mystery! The name of the person who climbed the tower, whether it was the name or the title registered when they first entered the tower, was completely ambiguous.
They could not communicate during the answer period.
As expected, it was not that simple!
He thought for a while and filled in the words—Ah Yan.
Since it was the name of the tower climber, it was most likely referring to that. The word real would have been added if it were their real names.
“The answer session is coming to an end. Countdown in five seconds.”
Just as he finished filling in the answers, a strange voice came from the front.
“Five, four, three, two, one.
“The answer session has ended.
“Your answer this time.” The strange man glanced at the expressions on the three people’s faces and smiled. “Is wrong.”
Zhu Xingguo hammered the ice, his face full of regret.
“Should I fill in the name of the tower climber or their real name?” Wang Wen asked the strange man
“I also want to ask that!” Zhu Xingguo nodded repeatedly. “I must have filled it in incorrectly!”
The strange man shook his head and laughed. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Perhaps you should ask the right person. Also, a friendly reminder—you’re not allowed to reveal your answers.”
Wang Wen grabbed the drone and asked, “Should I fill in my name or my real name for the answer?”
“First-time tower entry registration name.”
Wang Wen frowned. He released the drone and looked at Zhu Xingguo. He found that Zhu Xingguo was also frowning in deep thought.
A thought flashed through his mind.
“Don’t tell me you don’t remember Xiao Ren’s name,” he asked Zhu Xingguo with a strange expression.
Just as Zhu Xingguo was about to open his mouth, he thought of the rules and felt that he was not that powerful to answer his master’s question without revealing the answer.
He could only shut his mouth helplessly, his face full of innocence and confusion.
Wang Wen did not intend to hear his answer.
After all, there were rules and restrictions. If he accidentally violated them, it would be impossible to save energy and pass that level with the Q&A reward.
He had to use energy and even the Final Interpretation to fight against the World Tower.
That would consume too much energy, and the losses would outweigh the gains.
Wang Wen gave up on his curiosity and waited patiently for the next question.
There was no penalty for incorrect answers.
It was just a waste of time to try a few more.
It would take less time than recovering energy.
He stopped thinking about it.
On the other side, Ren Ruoruo’s voice rang out, “Captain, I realized something when I was answering the questions just now.”
Wang Wen looked at her.
He heard Ren Ruoruo say with a conflicted expression, “We can’t reveal the details. In short, it will be very difficult for us to answer the questions correctly!”
Wang Wen looked at Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo.
He understood that.
So there were other hidden mysteries?
He thought for a moment.
“It doesn’t matter if you get it wrong. Let’s take it slow. We’ll get our chance.”
Ren Ruoruo nodded.
When Duckbill Beast did not announce the next question after a long time…
“When do you plan to read the next question?” she asked angrily.
The strange man grinned. “I’m very polite. I’ll announce that after you’re done chatting. As long as the cold doesn’t bother you.”
The moment he said that…
Wang Wen had the vague impression that the ice and snow blizzard had grown stronger in the world.
He asked, “Didn’t you say it’s okay to answer incorrectly? Why is there a punishment, lowering the temperature and increasing the blizzard?”
“The weather is the weather; it has nothing to do with the questions. Do you want to know the reason for the cold?” the strange man asked mockingly.
Wang Wen felt the blizzard intensifying, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. He nodded, curious to see what kind of punishment rules were in place.
The strange man laughed.
“The reason for the cold is… You’ll know soon enough!” he said with a mischievous smile.
“Fuck!”
Zhu Xingguo saw his master’s face sink and took out a beam gun to point at the strange man. “Are you afraid of death?”
Duckbill Beast clapped his hands and laughed.
He laughed so hard that he bent over.
“What a lame joke!” He looked at Zhu Xingguo and said, “Of course, I’m afraid of death. But if I die, no one will come up with the questions. What about your question-and-answer session?”
The temperature outside continued to drop.
Ren Ruoruo began to tremble.
Zhu Xingguo quickly sold his beam gun and went to get her a thick cotton coat.
“I think I know the reason,” Wang Wen said to the Duckbill Beast as the wind and snow grew stronger.
The strange man pretended to be curious and asked, “You already know the reason for the cold? I’ve underestimated you!”
“As expected.” Wang Wen reached out to catch a thick snowflake and ordered Zhu Xingguo, who was holding Ren Ruoruo tightly, “If that big guy repeats the word cold, you can kill him.”
His voice faded.
The world instantly became much quieter.
The strange man’s loud laughter disappeared.
Only the sound of the wind and snow remained.
The expression on his face was slightly stiff.
There was a long silence.
“It seems like I was too greedy, and you found the flaw. Don’t worry; since you’ve found the reason, it won’t be effective no matter what I say.”
As he looked at Wang Wen, the strange man said, “However, is it not a little too rash to say that you want to kill me? If I die, who will give you the answers? Don’t you want the reward—”
Before he could finish his sentence…
He discovered that the team had brought out tables and chairs and ignited charcoal to make skewers!
Wang Wen even requested that Zhu Xingguo bring out a small, long solid wood table, set up an alcohol stove next to the barbecue grill, and place a small pot on the stove to boil water.
Judging from the ingredients on the table, he was going to cook a hot pot with beef and lamb rolls!
When he heard the strange man’s words…
While mixing the sauce, Wang Wen casually said, “We have other ways to get the reward, but it will be a little tiring, so it’s best if we can pass the test. But if someone isn’t afraid of death and causes trouble, I’m willing to use a more laborious method to get it.”
He tasted the sauce. He nodded in satisfaction and looked up at the strange man. “You should know that I am only 19 years old this year. Young people are always rash and impulsive.”
