Wanjie: Starting from the Back Room

"Mr. Yang Tao, there is an elevator ahead!!"

Harry's somewhat excited voice sounded. Yang Tao looked at the elevator on the wall in the distance that looked out of place, and silently put away the pickaxe in his hand.

"You found the elevator to level 4 so quickly?"

Under the effects of his hundredfold attraction of entities and [Cashew Water], he did encounter some entities in the past two days, such as limbs, death moths, and hounds.

But I haven't encountered any of them, and I don't know if they have moved from level 3.

Laughing Nightmare wandering on level 4: Where are the people?

"Let's go, let's go to level 4 to rest for a while. There are not many entities on level 3. It's time to go to a deeper level."

Without an entity as a target, Harry's magic combat effect can't be tested at all.

Could it be that he used [Petrification] on the wall?

It would be better to use it directly on Yang Tao, at least he could give him a [Slow] BUFF.

The two boarded the elevator.

The interior of the elevator is exactly the same as the one Yang Tao took before. There are no buttons inside, only an LED display with red numbers.

As the elevator door slowly closed.

"Mr. Yang Tao, where are we going?"

"Level 4... No, level 5!"

Although the elevator door did not open, Yang Tao found through the small map that the outside had changed, except that it was not an empty level 4 office area but a bustling hotel.

As the elevator door opened.

Yang Tao's words were confirmed.

[Level 5 "Horror Hotel"]

Unsafe

Stable

A small number of entities

Level 5 is a nearly infinite hotel complex with a large number of rooms and halls. This floor gives people the feeling that it was built in the 1930s, and the furniture in the level can even be traced back to 1920. Level 5 has three main areas that can be fully entered.

Harry looked at the unfamiliar environment around him. He still found it difficult to adapt to the specialness of the [Back Room]. He was in the noisy [Power Station] just now, but in just a few seconds, he came to an extremely luxurious hotel.

The sound of classical music, the old-style floor and the carefully cared-for environment made people feel extremely unnatural.

However, this is for lone wanderers. If someone is traveling with a companion, then this is the best place to rest.

"Harry, be careful."

"There are more death moths here."

As he spoke, Yang Tao had taken out the pickaxe from his backpack. In front of him was a corridor with no end in sight, and on both sides of the corridor were luxurious wooden doors.

When he came to the corridor, Yang Tao reached out and put the huge vase placed on the side into his backpack.

[Decorative vase]

[Value 1 energy point]

"One point? Never mind, one point is also meat!"

"Harry, you are responsible for cleaning up the death moths that will appear, and I will earn some money for the trip."

After all, it takes energy points to open the door. If you don't earn three or five thousand points after a hard trip, you will lose a lot.

"Got it, Mr. Yang Tao."

Yang Tao used both hands and one hand to put all the materials that could be picked up into his backpack, and the other hand waved a pickaxe to knock down the decorations that could not be picked up.

"Paintings don't give energy points? Trash!"

"Bronze statues? Take them back and smelt them."

"Carpets are not bad..."

...

In a luxurious guest room.

Yang Tao enjoyed the steak produced by his own family. With the villagers, his logistics level has improved a lot. At least now he doesn't have to eat bread every day at noon.

Look up at Harry who is flipping through the magic book.

"Eat more, you are growing up now, otherwise you won't be able to use the gift I gave you."

Harry put down the magic book in his hand after hearing this.

"Mr. Yang Tao, did you hear the voices coming from next door?"

"Voices?"

Yang Tao swallowed the steak in two or three bites. He didn't hear any voices. He thought there was something wrong with the records of level 5.

Level 5 is notorious for hearing strange sounds, such as the chatter of parties from the other side of the wall.

Some people also report that there is an invisible thing watching them in the corner.

There are also some reports on this floor that some people can hear incoherent whispers behind them, and when they are alone, they will feel something tapping their shoulders from time to time, and sometimes they can even feel those on the wall.The old portrait's eyes were always watching them.

Now it seems that he is just a little special and is not affected by this.

He took out a bottle of almond water from his backpack and put it on the table in front of Harry and said: "Drink this bottle of almond water, it should help you."

"Tell me, where do you feel the sound comes from?"

Harry pointed to the wall on the left and said hesitantly: "There seems to be sound coming from all around, but the sound coming from this side is clearer."

"Very good!"

Yang Tao walked to the wall and took out a pickaxe to knock on the wall.

Dongdong...

"The sound seems to have disappeared..."

Disappeared? Even if it disappeared, I have dug this wall today.

Dongdong...

Soon the wall turned into a block and flew into his body. Behind the wall was another guest room.

The guest room was empty, but there were some messy beds and leftover food on the table, all indicating that someone or other existence had been active here.

"Is there something that is not shown on the mini-map?"

Yang Tao opened a 2×2 gap in the wall and walked directly into another guest room.

"Harry, what about now?"

"The sound disappeared..."

Yang Tao frowned slightly. There are only two possibilities now. One is simple mental interference, and the other is that there is really a special entity.

However, he is more inclined to the first one, because he feels that the [Back Room] level has its own "consciousness".

Perhaps this "consciousness" is not subjective. It will mechanically maintain the stability and changes of the level and "refresh" the environment and materials.

Just like the guest room where Yang Tao is now, although there is no one in it, the level consciousness still creates signs of living.

This can be reflected in the introduction of level 5.

[Most of the doors in this area are locked, but some doors will miraculously unlock over time. Some doors will even open and close randomly. ]

It's like there are invisible "guests" who keep checking in and out.

But today, level 5 encountered Lao Liu, and it probably didn't expect that someone would hear the sound... or even break into the room without hearing any sound at all...

"Okay, Harry, you eat first, I'll clean up this room, and if you hear any strange sounds again, tell me."

Harry ate steak and drank almond water very obediently, watching Yang Tao clean up everything in the guest room.
