Chapter 99 If You Can Use Cheats, Don't Bother Thinking_3
He was actually telling the truth. But Aspasia found it unreasonable:
"You are confident it can get through the fifth level... and yet you give this thing for us to use?"
Wen Xishu patiently said:
"If you guys clearly don't want to use it, I will choose to use it. I have made myself very clear, haven't I? Do you want to use it?"
The game of human nature is a very interesting thing.
In Zheng Zai's eyes, there was almost no need to think, definitely agree wholeheartedly. But Zheng Zai did not expect that Wang Ying and Aspasia would actually hesitate.
Zheng Zai thought, could it be that Younger Brother Wen could still harm you?
But Aspasia felt that in such a place, after the incident where Tong Ming died and still counted as passing, the possibility of mutual aid was very low. Wen Xishu's behavior seemed more like he was uncertain whether this thing was useful, so he simply found two people to try it out first.
If he was really so confident, shouldn't he keep the good stuff for himself? After all, there are still so many levels to go through, having a few more items as a fallback would be more reasonable, wouldn't it?
This was Aspasia's thought.
Wang Ying was smarter than Aspasia.
He was indeed aware, that Tong Ming died on the second level but still counted as clearing the level, which led everyone to have some dark thoughts in their hearts, he admitted he had thought about it too.
But Wang Ying felt, this is just the fifth level, Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai wouldn't necessarily send him to die now.
Logically speaking, as long as someone can die to forcefully push through to the next level, it would be more valuable to choose a later level.
Moreover, Wen Xishu had saved him before, so Wang Ying felt that Wen Xishu would not harm him. Additionally, he had a feeling earlier—Wen Xishu seemed to have a method of his own to judge the value of items.
He felt internally that he ought to give it a try.
But Tong Ming's death made him feel that Deceit Tower had no so-called chosen ones. Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai could also suddenly die in the next level. The lunch boxes in Deceit Tower never follow any reasoning.
All of Wang Ying's thoughts were correct, what really held him back was actually cowardice.
Wen Xishu urged:
"Have you made up your minds? If you are certain you don't want to evaluate it, then Old Zheng and I will use it, it's okay."
Aspasia charmingly smiled:
"You have that handle to control Old Zheng, relying on that thing as a fallback, you can even confront the monsters head-on."
"Brother Wen, it's not that we don't trust you, but we don't have anything to fall back on. So... can you help us?"
"I promise, once we return to the bunker, the Stone Gambling Club will definitely repay this favor. You will always be a friend of our Stone Gambling Club."
Wen Xishu pretended to frown:
"But if I die, the friendship of the Stone Gambling Club will be meaningless to me. In a way, now is the fifth level, but it is also the simplest level we will face next..."
Aspasia was stunned, her voice lowering:
"You guys will be fine, I believe you can definitely pass all the levels!"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Okay, thanks for the blessing, no problem. Then Old Zheng and I will evaluate this thing, and you can look for other things, wish you good luck."
Wen Xishu smiled again, polite, but Zheng Zai suddenly felt... Younger Brother Wen seemed to have already regarded these two as dead. That smile actually made him a bit scared.
Just as Wen Xishu was about to start the evaluation, Wang Ying suddenly said:
"Brother Wen, let me do it! Let me do it! I trust you. I've been through this fifth level before!"
Wen Xishu let out a surprised "Oh":
"Captain Wang, are you sure? The danger level of the fifth level might be several levels higher than the fourth."
Aspasia was also shocked: "Brother Wen has already agreed to help us, why are you still..."
Wang Ying glared at Aspasia:
"I don't want to be looked down upon. Younger Brother Wen, since I'm the captain, I can't trouble the team members with everything. Let me do it, I can do it."
Actually, Wang Ying was terribly scared inside, but he felt earlier that there seemed to be other living creatures underneath this hospital.
Wen Xishu smiled:
"Captain Wang, have you thought it through?"
Wang Ying nodded:
"I've thought it through, you are right, though the next is the fifth level, it is the simplest level among the following levels. I am taking advantage of it."
Wen Xishu was genuinely surprised.
He didn't actually like Wang Ying as a person. Wang Ying had shown displeasure at his previous speeches, almost indicating clearly not to steal the limelight from the captain.
But although Wang Ying was scared to death, he would still do what a captain should do for the sake of the captaincy title. Although he could not allow those beneath him to be stronger, he would really stand in front of them when there is something.
What drove Wang Ying to overcome his fear was actually his self-esteem. Some live for the substance, some live for the face. In this world, it's not easy for someone who can take responsibility and is willing to take responsibility.
"Then I wish you all the best, Captain Wang."
Aspasia showed hesitation:
"You... you are sure you want to evaluate this? Wang Ying, have you thought it through?"
Wang Ying nodded, if he does it, he won't regret it:
"Let's go, shall we go together?"
Aspasia hesitated for a few seconds, then slowly shook her head:
"Wang Ying, why don't you... you evaluate it alone."
Wang Ying looked at his partner in astonishment, Wen Xishu was very pleased with this result.
"We are all from the Stone Gambling Club... Wang Ying, if we all die... who will go back and report to the boss? Now, I think it's better for us to split up."
After a brief moment of silence, Wang Ying eventually nodded:
"Fine, you're right, then I'll do it alone."
Zheng Zai noticed that Younger Brother Wen's smile seemed even brighter.
