"Thank you for your blessing."
"By the way, what is this action power used for?"
"If I’m not mistaken, our actions will be restricted by action power. Some specific behaviors, which originally should only consume physical energy, will consume action power in this strange scenario."
"So this is not Desire Tower. Don’t think the tasks are too simple."
"Once the action power is exhausted, some behaviors requiring action power can’t be done."
"Even if you are full of energy, you can’t do it."
Everyone felt this explanation was reasonable. They had actually guessed this.
"I hope everyone doesn’t forget one thing—we are here to complete tasks."
"As players, we need to accept tasks, interpret tasks, and complete tasks."
"If you carefully interpret the tasks, you will understand that if we are seven people, we will be arranged next to seven households."
"These seven families will fall apart because seven people in these families will die."
"But we only have five people. We need to save seven families and prevent their deaths. This means there are still two families we don’t know the situation of."
"We will be assigned next to them. I suppose action power is used to gather intelligence from the neighbors."
"If the intelligence we gather by consuming action power can’t save the seven families..."
Mentioning death, everyone suddenly woke up. Wu Xiangjiao even shuddered.
Yes, this is Deceit Tower, not Desire Tower.
Wen Xishu’s analysis made everyone feel extremely reasonable. They immediately became vigilant.
"I understand. We must be cautious when consuming action power..." said Xiaowu.
"Life is not easy. Since everyone has made it to Deceit Tower, naturally, you hope to turn things around and change your fate. Don’t die here because of momentary carelessness."
"God helps those who help themselves."
"Excellent! ’God helps those who help themselves’—I must remember this and tell the new followers when we return, urging them to cherish their lives! And never harm themselves."
At this moment, the staff returned:
"Sorry, sorry for keeping you all waiting. I have obtained the room cards and electricity cards for each of you. Now I will lead you to your rooms."
Then, under the guidance of the staff, Wen Xishu, Wen Xiangge, and the other three were assigned to five different rooms, on different floors.
At this moment, Wen Xishu noticed the first option consuming action power appeared.
[Start New Resident Meeting, consume 25 action power points.]
Wen Xishu quickly settled down and arrived at his room, 14-2.
According to the task information prompt, in the neighboring rooms 14-3 or 14-1, there is one of the seven task families.
Seven days later, this family will be ruined, and the head of this family will die.
Wen Xishu had never encountered such a task. There is no apparent eerie presence, and he didn’t feel any sequence ability fluctuation.
This luxurious apartment, with a size of 140 square meters, really resembles Desire Tower in every way.
But on closer inspection, every detail is filled with oddities.
Wen Xishu approached the floor-to-ceiling window and furrowed his brows:
"The money in the hands of the chaebols is the hardest to earn. Even when they do charity, their returns are higher than ordinary people’s financial investments...Jicheng undoubtedly corresponds to Seoul in my previous life."
"But such a city, such a luxurious building, surprisingly charges such low rent..."
"This task information is exceptionally long, different from the task with the parrot. Although this task involves riddles, it hides many clues."
Wen Xishu closed his eyes. Suddenly, he seemed to recall a crucial hint.
