Chapter 708 The real villain
On the third day, Oscar and the others managed to survive without any major incidents, though they were so exhausted that even moving their fingers was a struggle.
"Finally, it's almost over!" Oscar's state-of-the-art alloy steel knife had broken during the fight, and he had run out of ammunition.
The third day was finally coming to an end.
He glanced at the weary Nora beside him, thinking to himself that they could finally leave.
The first thing he planned to do once they got out was to make Nora fall deeply in love with him, in a very primal way.
"Congratulations to everyone for surviving. Now, the real game begins!"
William's voice rang in their ears.
The real game begins?
What's going on?
Wasn't it agreed that after surviving three days, they could leave?
"William, don't go too far. Even though you are the administrator, you shouldn't be the one making the rules for this Terror space!" Oscar shouted loudly, on the verge of collapse. This man was just too shameless!
Three days?
Was it going to be another three days after these three?
"There are still eighty-three survivors. Among those present, only five will be allowed to leave alive. Good luck! "
William was usually a very kind person, but he also had a darker side, especially in places like this. In his view, the lives of Oscar and the others didn't really matter. Since they wanted to play the game, he was going to make sure they played it well.
A horror game that isn't terrifying isn't fun at all.
The monsters in the Doors of Terror were horrifying. Oscar and the others were already exhausted, and these monsters were like venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
No one knew when they would attack.
These monsters were like swords hanging over their necks, ready to fall at any moment, yet unknown when they would do so.
Tension, oppression, fear, their nerves were constantly on edge.
Especially since they had just thought the game was over, only to hear William announce that it was just beginning.
Some who couldn't handle the pressure started crying.
William was really playing hard with their willpower.
In their eyes, William was an absolute devil!
A devil playing with human hearts!
Now, he was forcing them to turn on each other.
Eighty-three people, but only five could survive!
Instantly, the dynamics within Doors of Terror shifted again. The weaker ones wanted to form alliances, yet they feared that their allies might stab them in the back at any moment.
Trust among them crumbled to dust with just a few words from William, especially the inner conflict—it was pure torment.
hearts were proving to be more terrifying than the monsters outside.
William had no intention of getting his hands dirty. If he did intervene directly, Oscar and the others would be no more significant than ants, easily wiped out with a mere gesture. But that kind of death wasn't the terrifying part,it was even relatively painless.
After hearing William's announcement, Oscar's gaze first fell on Nora beside him.
Their group had spread out too much. Trying to find the others and reduce their number to just four seemed challenging, and they would encounter monsters along the way. The longer it took, the more disadvantageous it was for him.
William would target him!
He was also well aware that if the skeleton that followed him made a move, he could very likely die instantly.
William was toying with him, and it was very possible that even if only five were left, he might still die.
But there was still a glimmer of hope.
He was gambling that William, the administrator, couldn't just do whatever he wanted.
"Only fifty-one survivors left, keep it up!"
William's soft and calm voice echoed in their ears again.
From eighty-three to fifty-one in just ten minutes,thirty-two people had died.
His voice seemed to declare how fragile their alliances were.
Those who had harbored any hope of luck now doubted their so-called comrades even more.
The people who had entered with Oscar were not good people to begin with, and William's actions now wildly nurtured their inner darkness.
Everyone wanted to survive,no one wanted to die by another's hand.
With only five spots available, as long as there were six survivors, they were all enemies,only the living could leave.
Oscar whispered to Nora beside him without changing his expression, "Nora, stick with me, don't get lost. We'll both make it out alive."
Nora nodded timidly and whispered back, "Oscar, I trust you!"
Another ten minutes passed, and William's voice rang out again.
"Only eighteen survivors remain. Congratulations, your strength will now be enhanced to a certain extent. I will ensure that your combat abilities are roughly on the same level."
Oscar's face paled at this!
Combat abilities on the same level?
What did that mean?
Was it like Kevin before?
He had been the strongest in the team, and now the combat abilities of the remaining eighteen were being enhanced...
The key issue was, he didn't feel any increase in his own strength.
Nora, on the other hand, now held a long sword, and the aura of energy around her had changed.
Had she become stronger?
Oscar stared at Nora, wanting to shout out how unfair this was!
It was so unfair!
But instead, he managed a strange smile and asked Nora, "How do you feel, Nora? Do you feel stronger?"
Nora lifted the sword in her hand and slashed it down, immediately creating a trench 40 feet long and 3 feet deep in the ground.
Her actions spoke louder than words to Oscar.
Indeed, she had become stronger!
Oscar clenched his fists. If the other sixteen people were also this powerful, then his advantage was minimal.
His only advantage now might be the X-Vanguard Armor he wore and his extensive combat experience.
But now, he couldn't even trust Nora, the woman he could have easily crushed before without much thought.
Now, it was different.
This woman now had the power to kill him.
"Nora, now that you've become stronger, we should stick together even more. Let's team up to take down the others, and try to recruit anyone we can," Oscar said, showing he wasn't without brains. With only eighteen people left, their best strategy was to find three more allies and form an absolute alliance of five.
This was their chance to survive.
Just a chance!!
Who knew what that bastard William would do in the end?
Female ghost Nora was trained by William. Simply killing Oscar was definitely not her goal.
What William wanted was to completely shatter this person's mentality.
William had lived a long time, and most of his actions were indeed based on personal likes and dislikes.
He also has his own set of standards for judging good and evil. People like Oscar, he deems as evil, and a rather dull kind of evil at that.
If Oscar hadn't provoked him and those around him, he might have ignored him.
But since Oscar repeatedly sought his own doom, William had no choice but to make him understand what a true villain is.
