Felicia actually started a counting rhyme before her finger finally fell on the left.

She laughed as she said: “It seems that we’re destined to go left.”

Nancy also smiled, and her pale face became more spirited. She said, “Then let’s go right.”

“Why?” Felicia blinked.

Nancy said, “I usually choose the opposite answer when playing such games.”

Felicia was very straightforward as she nodded: “Sure, let’s go to the right.”

The two of them lifted the black cloth on the right and entered.

Every time the guardian beast disappeared, the black maze would be especially quiet.

If not for the sounds created by the players, the entire world would seem to have stopped.

The black cloth gently rippled. It was the wave created by the wind when it was lifted.

After they walked far away, the place was so quiet that even the sound of ants falling could be heard.

Holding onto her sturdy belt, Felicia said, “There’s still five hours left. We’ll charge out in one go.”

Nancy smiled and was about to say something when the person beside her suddenly said, “Hey, look over there.”

“What is it?”

Felicia blinked and said, “I just saw a big hole in the black cloth over there. But when I took a closer look, it was completely intact.”

Nancy looked over and said softly, “I think you must have seen it wrongly.”

Felicia said, “Speaking of which, the black cloth torn apart by the guardian beast has returned to its original state. This is too unfair. The guardian beast is fine after destroying the game equipment but we are to be punished if we do the same.”

Nancy said softly, “That’s because we’re players. The guardian beast belongs to the game. We don’t belong here.”

Felicia shrugged her shoulders before she suddenly recalled something and immediately asked, “Do you still remember what the judge said? You will receive the corresponding reward after you pass the trial.”

Nancy nodded, “Yes, that’s what it said.”

Felicia smiled and narrowed her eyes: “I wonder what the reward is. I’m really looking forward to it.”

Nancy looked at her for a while and said in an envious tone, “You have such a positive mentality. Not only did these black cloths not affect you, but you can also defeat the guardian beast alone. Furthermore, your sense of direction is also very good. You will definitely be able to successfully pass the round and obtain the reward.”

For some reason, Felicia’s expression froze. She chuckled as she placed her hand on Nancy’s shoulder and said, “We’re in the same group. The two of us will get two rewards together.”

Nancy narrowed her eyes and said softly, “I only hope that I won’t drag you down.”

“Haha, you won’t. You’re very smart. You just need to protect yourself when the guardian beast appears.”

Nancy let out a guilty sigh and lowered her head without saying anything.

…

The black cloth moved without any wind and slowly rippled. The oppressive aura did not decrease at all.

Fortunately, they could defeat the guardian beast and obtain the clues to pass the round.

Otherwise, if they were to run around like a headless fly in this eerie and suffocating place, they would suffer a mental breakdown sooner or later.

After the victory just now, the short-haired girl was now full of confidence and was in a good mood.

“I forgot that I have a scarf tied to my bag. I’ll cover my eyes with a scarf later. If I walk like that while holding your hand, I won’t be affected by the black cloth.”

“Yeah, sure.”

The boy readily agreed. He was very happy about her change and also heaved a sigh of relief.

After tying the ribbon, the two walked hand in hand towards the direction indicated by the note.

The girl was in high spirits and took the initiative to chat. “Where are you from? I’m from Alabama. I’m a sophomore this year. What about you?”
