Chapter 79: Acting

The focus shifts back to Karoso.

Karoso had already figured out the true identities of these people, but he didn’t expose them like Teresa did, nor did he panic like Neymar.

"What should we do, the dungeon upgraded!" An adventurer panicked when he saw this.

Fake Neymar quickly looked at Karoso and instinctively moved closer to him.

Karoso didn’t refuse Fake Neymar or show any unusual behavior.

"Brother, what should we do?" Fake Neymar asked anxiously.

Karoso glanced at Fake Neymar.

If they didn’t have the Communication Card, they should have noticed something unusual here. The real Neymar knew it would turn into a fourth-tier dungeon.

"Don’t worry, I’m here." Karoso patted Fake Neymar’s head.

Even the touch feels the same.

"Hmm…" Fake Neymar looked much calmer.

"What’s the rush?" Fake Teresa looked around, "The dungeon is just leveling up, both Karoso and I have the ability to challenge higher levels. As long as you behave, I promise to let you out!"

"Understood, we will cooperate fully!" The adventurer leader said solemnly, "But if you think any of us will be sacrificed, we will not agree."

"Don’t worry, I will do my best to ensure everyone’s safety, as long as you listen to me." Fake Teresa nodded.

[Speaking of which, does this dungeon have a loophole?]

[If Master Karoso knew these adventurers from the beginning, would they still act like they don’t know him?]

[I don’t know.]

If that’s the case, this dungeon has truly been solved, because no dungeon is unsolvable, every rule has loopholes.

The group of people already knew each other, but only realized something was wrong when they didn’t meet in the dungeon.

However, displaying too differently will lead to being surrounded by nine faceless monsters.

[Survivors: 19]

"Ah!"

The Pastor among the adventurers suddenly shouted, melting away like a candle burning in fire.

"Pastor!" the leader shouted, looking horrified at the Pastor.

"Help, help me!" The Pastor’s voice grew weaker, turning into a puddle of wax.

Karoso stared at the Pastor’s body.

Is this so similar?

"What’s going on?" Fake Teresa squatted down heavily on the ground and looked at the body.

"You said you would ensure our safety!" The leader said excitedly.

"Shut up!" Fake Teresa shouted angrily, "None of us figured out what’s going on with this magic! Let me investigate!"

"Fourth-tier dungeon, this is the fourth-tier dungeon?" A trembling adventurer asked.

Karoso told fake Neymar, "Teresa will handle this, I’ll go check what triggered the mechanism here."

Fake Neymar obediently nodded, even imitating Neymar’s obedience to Karoso perfectly.

[Oh no, one less monster?]

[Is this making it easier?]

[Something’s wrong, the Pastor must really be dead.]

[Yes, if a player exits the game in the middle of our play, then our teammate will also die accordingly, either by a trap or by encountering something. It’s hard to notice anything unusual when chatting privately during a wilderness adventure.]

"That Pastor must have used a thank you card," Karoso inspected the wax figures in the room and said, "If their cards can only mimic the appearance of our cards, the Pastor would easily detect any anomalies. If one behaves oddly, they could be surrounded and killed."

"Not all Pastors are clergy, he might have stolen my card, Teresa’s, or Neymar’s. In their eyes, we are all wealthy, our cards must be better than the monsters’ or even theirs."

[Greed, died from greed?]

[Actually, we also copy our teammates’ cards while playing, we only copy monster cards when gathering information.]

[Hold on, doesn’t this dungeon look familiar to you guys?]

[It does, it reminds me of the Wax Museum we battled in.]

[No, the Wax Museum we fought was a sixth-tier dungeon.]

Karoso paused for a moment and whispered, "If a dungeon can reach the fourth tier, does that mean it’s impossible to reach the sixth tier?"

"Usually when a dungeon raid fails, dungeon monsters go wild and come out of the dungeon into the real world."

"But there are also times when the dungeon monsters don’t go wild after a failed raid."

[Maybe!]

[Oh no, if that’s the case, now I know how to fight.]

[This level is really hard.]

[When one Pastor dies, nine monsters like Pastor will also die – it’s like exchanging one for nine, seems like a good deal.]

[The total number of monsters is one hundred and eighty!]

[If the other seventeen people all die, there will be twenty-seven monsters left. Master Karoso and Teresa could defeat nine, but one Neymar alone cannot beat a monster. So, we must team up to fight together.]

[We can’t go together first, or there will be trouble.]

[In other words, the best scenario is for the other conquerors to die!]

[Let’s set up traps first, and use them to kill some enemies.]

[Don’t be silly! The dungeon we encountered was at the sixth level, but now we’re at the fourth level. There will definitely be many differences inside. If something is wrong, it could lead to the death of Master Karoso.]

[Yes, at first we didn’t notice the differences in details, such as the number of wax figures, which was much fewer than before.]

The fake Teresa was calming down the people, speaking loudly, while no one could hear Karoso’s voice.

[Let’s trigger a battle first, Master Karoso. The sixth statue on the left, the one with a different color. Try to damage it.]

Upon hearing this, Karoso walked up to the wax figure.

He didn’t summon his weapon but instead pretended to casually tap on its body.

Ding, ding.

Karoso hit with great force, like hitting metal.

Crackle, crackle…

Just then, the wax figure moved.

Its head turned towards Karoso, the eyes making it look alive!

"Teresa!" Karoso suddenly stepped back.

The fake Teresa heard this and rushed to Karoso.

"Roar!"

The wax figure roared, trying to charge at Karoso.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed on the sword of fake Teresa.

Buzz!

The big sword struck the wax figure, and the wax figure was split in half by fake Teresa’s sword!

Clatter…

The wax figure instantly melted, turning into a puddle of wax.

Karoso watched the power of fake Teresa’s skills.

If he hadn’t known beforehand, it would have been easy to mistake it for real!

Whether it was the magic fluctuations, lighting effects, or Teresa’s movements, they were exactly the same as the real Teresa!

But as soon as this skill hit Karoso, he would realize that fake is always fake.

She’s not strong because of skills, the wax figure is helping her act!

These monsters really died, they were acting with their lives.
