Chapter 85: Misunderstandings

What was the most terrifying thing in the world?

The unknown.

What could be scarier than the unknown?

Imagination.

Zhu Xingguo meticulously followed Ren Ruoruo’s steps. The time-limited secret room had been cleared, and the next level entrance was opened, accompanied by a heavy rumble.

However, up until that point, the two had not seen the accident that they had imagined.

Zhu Xingguo, who had expected to die, felt as if his body had been hollowed out. In perplexity, he turned to look at Ren Ruoruo.

Ren Ruoruo was already taken aback by Wang Wen’s expression at the time.

Wang Wen appeared to have suffered a severe injury at the end of the secret room. His face was pale as thick sweat oozed from every pore on his skin. His hands and feet were trembling.

Wang Wen was aware of his appearance at the time. He did not say much, but he did his best to bear it.

Every time he passed through the time-limited secret room, it was the same. The pain could be alleviated slightly with the assistance of another person, but it could not be avoided entirely. After so many years, he had grown accustomed to it. It would be fine once his spiritual power had increased sufficiently.

Should he admit that such an increase in spiritual power, which others might see as cheating, was indeed enviable?

Unsurprisingly, the ancients often said one could only improve with luck and hard work.

Was that right?

No matter how hard one worked, one would still need luck to improve?

Should they be satisfied that they only crossed the finish line after a fight to their death?

At times, it seemed like it.

No one knew how else to evaluate it.

Furthermore, one’s effort could be controlled but not one’s talent. Everyone could choose to work hard, but not everyone could choose whether or not they had talent.

To summarize, talent was more important than effort.

Wang Wen happened to be the one with exceptional talent.

He was too embarrassed to show his pain to the public, despite his exceptional talent. That would be too arrogant.

Did he think he was a virgin, taking advantage and crying out in pain?

Shameless!

As a result, he had to keep a smile on his face and accept everyone’s expected envy. When he was in good enough shape, he would crack a joke.

As a result, facing two new teammates unfamiliar with him at the time, Wang Wen endured the pain and revealed a ferocious smile. “Phew, that was close,” he said, seemingly at ease. “I almost died.” Then, he laughed.

He could not stop laughing halfway.

Ren Ruoruo, staring at him, burst into tears again. She sobbed uncontrollably as she pointed her finger at Wang Wen’s face.

Zhu Xingguo stood up and looked worriedly at Wang Wen.

Wang Wen looked around and thought it was odd. He wiped his nose as he followed Zhu Xingguo’s line of sight. His hands were red.

He had a nosebleed.

Wang Wen pinched his nose, grunting, “It is okay. I am perfectly fine. It may look frightening, but it is not. ”

He made every effort to explain.

His new teammates were excellent and eager to assist him in unlocking the time-limited secret room. It was difficult to find such good teammates. He did not want to make a bad impression on his teammates unless absolutely necessary.

It was only a nosebleed. That was insignificant in comparison to the increase in spiritual power.

There was no exhaustion or pain in their world. Even if one’s blood had been drained, one had to stand still and look good with one’s hands in one’s pockets.

It was impossible to appear tired and worn. They were not children.

Not as one grew older.

Wang Wen did not waste any time. He walked into the next level’s entrance. Simultaneously, he pinched his nose and waved for the two of them to hurry up.

As the captain walked off, Zhu Xingguo fixed his gaze on the ground. His eyes were stinging from tears. He knelt to help Ren Ruoruo, who was sobbing uncontrollably. Asking her was akin to asking himself, “Did the captain assist me in preventing that fatal accident?”

Ren Ruoruo tightened her grip on the palm that was supporting her and said hoarsely, “Otherwise, what else could have injured such a powerful person?”

Zhu Xingguo nodded and remembered Wang Wen hitting the helicopter. “Back then, when the captain attacked that helicopter, he also had a nosebleed. It appears that the accident just now was no less lethal than the armed helicopter.”

Ren Ruoruo looked at Wang Wen, who casually waved at the two of them at the entrance and pretended nothing had happened. “He suffered such a serious injury, yet he still tried his best to act as if nothing had happened and not let us worry or feel guilty,” she said, her voice choking with pain. “Who is he? How can a tower climber be so considerate?”

Zhu Xingguo stood beside her and walked slowly toward the entrance without saying anything.

His expression was solemn!

His throat and eyes were parched.

There was an intense sensation of swelling every time he swallowed.

That scene deeply moved him and shook his soul!

Initially, his brain had gone all out, and he was determined to help his teammate disarm the mechanism despite the fact that he would die.

Finally, it was the captain who silently withstood all of the invisible attacks.

He was not injured in the least.

That stark contrast was like a massive hammer slamming into the bull’s heart.

It completely shifted his perspective and worldview!

In that universe, the most common lesson for every professionally trained tower climber was that the most dangerous people in the World Tower were their own teammates and that those who walked with them could not be trusted.

The cooperation between tower climbers, like any other business, was solely for profit. They could either cooperate for gain or destroy the alliance for profit.

It was also unlike doing business. If someone broke a business partnership, they would lose one order. However, they might die if they lose their alliance in the World Tower.

It was not uncommon for tower climbers to do anything for a profit.

However, no one would risk their lives just to feel good.

What were friendship, companionship, and close friendship?

They had been amused at first.

However, Zhu Xingguo realized he was about to collide with those strange things.

He had become entangled.

He was unable to free himself.

He was perplexed, but he was looking forward to it.

He was certain that joining that team was the best decision he had ever made in 30 years.

He was confident that his life would change from then on.

Unlike the other tower climbers.

Because that team possessed a unique asset.

Zhu Xingguo’s eyes became increasingly bright.

Ren Ruoruo appeared to be in a completely different state.

She was depressed.

She was convinced that she was a very professional and traditional tower climber and that there was nothing wrong with tradition, so she could not understand what the two psychopaths in the team were displaying at the time.

Her mind was filled with conflicting thoughts as she relied on Zhu Xingguo’s strong arms to barely stand and walk.

‘How should I proceed? I can’t keep going much longer!”

‘Didn’t they say that tower climbers are selfish and only care about themselves?’

‘Why are you two like that?’

‘Can we climb the tower like any other team?’

‘We should sell what could and give up what we had to. Everything was for our benefit and the benefit of the higher levels. Isn’t that better?’

‘Can we not get hurt and die for others?’

‘This is not the World Tower I am familiar with. I am ready to go home.’
