Chapter 1577: Rubik's Cube Beauty (39)
"Kid, the Rubik's Cube World is a place where people can enter, but never leave." The mysterious voice caused Zhai Chenming's heart to sink.
"What do you mean?"
Last night, he had been about to fall asleep when a strange voice unexpectedly rang beside his ear, drawing his attention.
In the end, he followed the voice to the amusement facilities, where the two conversed for a long time.
Of course, he never actually saw the person. But the other party told him that they could help him overcome his current difficulties and obtain whatever he wanted within the Rubik's Cube World.
And the other party's only purpose was to use him to leave this place.
Last night, they hadn't discussed leaving the Rubik's Cube World.
But from what the other party was saying now, it seemed impossible to escape from the Rubik's Cube World.
"Kid, if you don't believe me, just ask those who've lived here for a long time whether they want to leave and why they haven't. Then you'll understand."
Hearing that, Zhai Chenming believed seven-tenths of it.
Last night, the mysterious figure had demonstrated some miraculous powers.
For example, it had made the amusement rides operate on their own, without any of the daytime problems.
The other party had also told him that only in Trade City could he obtain what he desired. Trade City had everything, but all of it came at exorbitant prices that required countless Rubik's Cube Coins.
With his current circumstances, merely staying alive was difficult enough. How could he possibly save enough Rubik's Cube Coins?
What enraged him even more was that the mysterious person had told him that Tang Guo and Gong Wei, who appeared ordinary, were actually natives of the Rubik's Cube World.
As for their identities, the other party hadn't elaborated. But judging from the tone, their statuses were definitely not low.
"The people of the Rubik's Cube World love disguising themselves as ordinary people and watching outsiders like you struggle to survive. The more miserable you are, the happier they become. Think about it carefully. Hasn't it been like that all this time?"
After living in the Rubik's Cube World for nearly a month, Zhai Chenming's life really had been as the other party described.
He had been humiliated and miserable, living timidly and cautiously, unable to display his abilities at all.
Meanwhile, Tang Guo and Gong Wei had spent their days laughing and smiling, as though they were simply enjoying themselves in the mortal world.
As for his misery and humiliation, perhaps they had been secretly mocking him all along—a mere ordinary person overestimating himself.
If she truly regarded him as a teammate, how could she bear to watch them struggle so desperately?
How could Xue'er have been reduced to lowering herself and begging Tang Guo for help?
Consumed by resentment, Zhai Chenming agreed to the mysterious voice and chose to bind himself to it.
"Then tell me, how can I leave? You should have a way, right?"
"Kill one of that man and woman, and you'll be able to leave." The mysterious figure's sinister voice echoed, chilling Zhai Chenming to the bone. "Kill one of them, and the Rubik's Cube World will collapse. Everyone trapped within it will finally be free."
"They're not ordinary people. I can't kill them." At least in this regard, Zhai Chenming had some self-awareness.
Moreover, what he really wanted was to gain even more benefits from this mysterious being.
Having witnessed all kinds of miraculous powers, who would be willing to leave as nothing more than an ordinary man?
"I'll create opportunities for you and allow you to obtain extraordinary power. From now on, the Rubik's Cube World will be your training ground. But before that, you must not reveal any flaws. Otherwise, it'll be very easy for them to become suspicious."
