Odd Containment Specialist

Xia Shou continued to climb up, and the hands on his neck tightened and tightened, and he gradually had difficulty breathing.

But Xia Shou knew that the other party would not let him suffocate to death, because all the intimidation behaviors of the Fear Lighthouse were aimed at scaring off the climbers. Whether it was the illusion of bleeding or other illusions, it would not make the climbers lose the ability to continue to climb up.

In front of Xia Shou's eyes, his vision began to blur, and breathing became more and more difficult.

His eyes went dark, his body tilted forward, and then he lost consciousness...

Suddenly opening his eyes, Xia Shou found himself lying on the steps.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Xia Shou said in shock.

It can't be more than an hour, right? If the coma exceeds an hour, then the replay will not be able to go back directly to the outside of the tower.

Of course, turning around and going down the tower now may also be safe.

Do you want to leave? Anyway, you are seeking your own death, you can challenge it again next time, which is safer.

This thought came to Xia Shou's mind, but he soon realized the trap.

He finally felt the power of the lighthouse of fear. The more he pursued safety, the more he left himself a way out, and the more he pursued infallibility, the more likely he was to give up halfway.

Because it only takes a small illusion to destroy the way out left by the climber.

Even if he left the lighthouse now and waited 24 hours to challenge again, I am afraid that the result would be the same next time. This is not because of the lighthouse itself, but because of his own personality.

But if he continued to climb up, it would really be life-threatening. Seeking death has clearly pointed this out to him.

Xia Shou stood up and stood on the steps, looking at the spiral staircase that seemed to extend upwards endlessly in front of him, not knowing whether he should take another step.

In this place, he was no different from those ordinary people. The skill of guaranteeing immortality became uncertain in an instant.

In this comparison, he was even more likely to retreat than those who were not afraid of death, because he was afraid of death, very afraid.

The next second, Xia Shou found that the red lines under his feet gradually dimmed, and finally all went out and disappeared.

The red line that indicated the dead end disappeared at this moment, which made Xia Shou feel even more terrified.

The duration of the self-destruction is three hours, so he was unconscious for more than three hours? !

Then he can't even rewind!

"Damn it!"

He can only come back next time. The current Fear Lighthouse is really life-threatening. If he really wants to challenge the record, he might as well wait until the abnormal radiation of the lighthouse disappears and then challenge it again.

By then, the lighthouse will be absolutely safe, and he will definitely be able to climb to a higher place.

This thought came to his mind like a bubble emerging from the bottom of the sea. Xia Shou turned around without hesitation and wanted to go downstairs, but he stopped abruptly as soon as he stepped down the first step.

"I want to investigate why Yi Lei came in." Xia Shou muttered to himself.

Yi Lei is the culprit who lured Su Weiyu's family, and he is also inextricably linked to the Blood Mother Cult and the Eye of the Root. His purpose is to greatly speed up the investigation of these events, and he must find out the truth.

But Xia Shou was still very conflicted, because between investigation and saving his life, life was more important.

"Forget it, there must be other ways." Xia Shou began to walk down.

Just after he had walked down a few circles, a strange man's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "So risking your life to protect Su Weiyu's family is actually just a nice thing you said in front of her."

Xia Shou froze and turned to look at the voice coming from above. There was no one above, but the voice still came from the corner: "She died for you once in the Blood Demon House."

The other party spoke very briefly, but Xia Shou knew what he wanted to say.

"It's not a nice thing to say, but the risk is too great now! There is a real possibility of death in the Lighthouse of Fear. It is much safer to investigate than to sneak into the headquarters directly from the Rawlins Church."

"Yes, that infiltration method is much safer, but what if you encounter the same life-threatening situation again later?

I understand, I understand your thoughts very well. Anyway, you will think so at that time: this is too dangerous, there are other safer and more reliable plans to execute, dying here is not worth the loss, and even people cannot be saved. Taking another path is the best way to have both.

Right? That's what you thought just now, right?"

"You are not even a human, just an illusion." Xia Shou said coldly.

The other party knew Su Weiyu and could talk about Su Weiyu, so he was destined not to be a human, but only part of the weird phenomenon.

He thought that the illusion would continue to refute him, but it became quiet above, and there was no movement anymore.

But Xia Shou did not continue to go down the tower, but stood there, hesitating.

He began to doubt his true thoughts. He had said that he could risk his life to save them for Su Weiyu, but did he really have the determination to do so? He was just looking for death and arrogantly promising something that he could not do.

Xia Shou lowered his head, looked at the steps in front of him, and walked up again...

...

...

"He started to walk down, and he will probably come out soon." The observer sighed regretfully.

The data on the altimeter was dropping at a very fast speed, almost one meter every few seconds.

However, when the altitude dropped to 62 meters, the downward trend suddenly stopped.

"Hey, what's going on?" Edson asked.

The observer replied: "It's a temporary entanglement. This happens occasionally. The defense has collapsed, but the belief is still firm, so he will stop halfway through the escape, but in the end he will still come down. Now he is just doing his own psychological work."

Edson looked at the static number and sighed regretfully: "It seems that the trump card can't conquer this lighthouse."

In fact, Edson was quite looking forward to it. He felt that relying on Xia Shou's lucky talent, there might be some breakthrough, but this time, it seems that he can't make any contribution.

As soon as the voice fell, Reed suddenly opened his eyes wide, pointed at the altimeter in surprise, and shouted: "It started to go up from 62 meters again!"

"What? It's rising again?! Hurry, record it!" Edson stared at the number that started to rise again in shock, and immediately ordered.

62 meters is not a shocking record.

Although it is very rare compared to ordinary people, it is a big piece in the files of the Control Bureau.

What concerned Edson was the regrouping that Xia Shou had just shown. He had just reached the maximum height of 75 meters, but it seemed that he was frightened and began to turn and descend. The height dropped to 62 meters at a very fast speed.

In the Lighthouse of Fear, there is a special phenomenon, that is, the ascent is very slow. You have to go up step by step. Some people even walk for several hours to go up ten meters.

But if you retreat and want to escape from the lighthouse, you can get out of it quickly. The falling speed of some losers is almost the same as the free fall of jumping off a building. They fall to the bottom in an instant. Even they themselves will find it strange when they think about it afterwards. They have obviously walked such a long way up, turned around a few times, and the exit is right in front of them.

In addition, there is another phenomenon in the archives, that is, once the climbers have the intention to retreat, it is impossible to continue to revive their mentality and continue to climb under pressure.

Fear is like a dam that stores water, bearing pressure all the time. As fear slowly increases, the person concerned can rely on amazing perseverance to constantly do psychological work on himself, building the dam higher and stronger.

But once the dam cracks, it will be a catastrophe, and there is no room for recovery.

Like Xia Shou, who has shown an extremely obvious tendency to burst the dam, but finally stopped abruptly and started to move up again, he is the first person in history!
