Chapter 603: The Terrifying Cube’s Labyrinth

Book Chapter 603: The Terrifying Cube (Update 1)

At the moment he fell, a pair of arms caught his body. Lin

Awakening of the Migratory Birds… Xiao Yu’s dizziness vanished.

Migratory Birds refer to species that travel long distances.

And within their system, there’s a little bird capable of breaking the shackles of flesh.

It can fly day and night without pause; records even show it can go 11 days without sleep.

It can cross the Pacific in one nonstop flight, covering tens of thousands of kilometers…

It’s known as the Banded Tailed Turnstone.

The Banded Tailed Turnstone possesses a truly peculiar ability.

It is innately immune to anesthetics and neuroactive drugs!

Should I make a move? Could this be a second lure designed solely to test me… Xiao Yu considered every possibility.

Go big or go home!

Quickly regaining his composure, Xiao Yu pretended to be unconscious, allowing his captor to help him walk step by step.

They exited Jinjiang Amusement Park and he was thrown into a vehicle.

A business van, perhaps?

The vehicle started, yet Xiao Yu kept his eyes closed the entire time.

More than that, he could feel someone constantly watching him from nearby.

Any flutter of his eyes or movement would have given him away.

It was clear that there were two people inside.

Overall assessment: Among these two, one was a battle-hardened fighter in disguise.

Just a regular person who could be crushed with a mere flick of the wrist!

Even without using his sight, Xiao Yu employed Python’s Sense and Night Bat Wave to observe.

He also activated Wangdie’s Nose and Wax Moth’s Ear to record every scent and sound.

Finally, he invoked Bear Force and Rhino’s Defense to safeguard against any mishaps.

For some reason, Xiao Yu felt an uncontrollable urge to laugh.

It was like a ridiculous plot twist in a novel.

A colossal dragon being kidnapped by two mere ants!

……

Two hours.

The business van kept moving the entire time.

The difference between genuine and feigned unconsciousness is vast.

It’s like lying in bed: when truly asleep, you stay completely still.

But if you’re just lying awake, you simply can’t remain motionless.

For two agonizing hours, Xiao Yu didn’t budge; it wasn’t just discomfort—it was pure torture.

At last, the vehicle came to a stop.

Xiao Yu was roughly hauled out of the car and carried along.

He lost track of how far they went.

Then suddenly, he heard the clanging of gates being opened.

A surge of putrid decay assaulted his nostrils.

Until… did it sink?

Xiao Yu could distinctly feel the drop as his body descended.

The sensation was unmistakable.

It was like riding an elevator—if you close your eyes, you can keenly sense the descent.

Thud!

A brief pause, then the clatter of metal gates opening once more.

Xiao Yu was carried on for about another two minutes.

He was roughly dumped onto the ground as footsteps faded away.

Now, the dilemma surfaced.

Should I wake up right away or wait a little longer?

No, this is the time to pull off an Academy Award-worthy performance.

Controlling his irregular breathing was crucial.

Another hour passed.

Xiao Yu finally opened his eyes, utterly stunned.

Before him was a room made entirely of metal.

Four meters tall, four meters long, and four meters wide… the entire room was constructed of steel.

On every side—front, back, left, right, top, and bottom—there was a metal door about a meter wide.

Damn… Xiao Yu nearly let out a curse.

Anxiety Formula!

What would an ordinary person feel when something straight out of a movie suddenly appears in real life?

Xiao Yu’s heart tightened sharply, and cold sweat broke out on his palms.

He sat up, then stood, carefully scrutinizing his surroundings.

Every face of the cube was identical.

Even the top door with its large red button was exactly the same!

Suddenly.

Xiao Yu’s body wavered.

He could feel the room shifting.

Yes, it was moving.

Up and down, side to side, even back and forth.

The route to this place, once etched firmly in his mind, was now completely scrambled.

The room moved for a full three minutes before coming to a stop.

Although it appeared harmless, Xiao Yu began to sweat a cold perspiration.

Not sweat from heat!

The temperature inside the metal room was climbing steadily; he could clearly feel the heat intensifying.

It heated up so rapidly, as if someone were stoking a fire to set the entire room ablaze.

Xiao Yu’s face darkened noticeably.

By his calculations, in about a minute the room’s heated air would suffocate anyone inside.

Moreover, that searing heat could easily cook a living person alive!

Damn… no time to waste.

Disoriented, Xiao Yu couldn’t tell front from back as he dashed toward a nearby cube wall, raised his arm, and slammed the red button on its metal door.

Buzz!

The clatter of mechanical gears filled the air as the metal door slowly opened.

Before Xiao Yu could even react, a blast of icy air struck him, sending a jitter through his body.

So cold!

Simultaneously, Xiao Yu leapt up, grabbed the edge of the door, and propped himself up to look inside.

There, he saw another identical cubic metal room.

But this one was brutally cold; the piercing chill numbed his hands.

The cold was nearly unbearable for a human body.

Entering this room was almost as good as courting death.

Then, the metal door began to close on its own.

Xiao Yu let go and fell to the ground.

Five seconds?

Does the door remain open for only five seconds each time?

No, what was I thinking… Xiao Yu’s forehead beaded with sweat as the room continued to heat.

Frankly, facing a life-or-death crisis like this, he was terrified.

In one swift move, Xiao Yu charged toward another metal door on a different wall and slammed it open.

The moment the door swung open, a nauseating miasma hit him, making him want to vomit.

Was this yet another room where survival was nearly impossible?

Xiao Yu switched to a door on yet another wall and opened it.

This time… he discovered the room was filled halfway with water.

Damn it… Xiao Yu almost cursed at some fool: ‘You really know how to mess with me!’

Then he opened a door on a different wall once more.

This time, there was no water, cold, or miasma. However…

Inside were spinning, slicing saw blades—step in and you’d likely be shredded to pieces.

Rolling his eyes, Xiao Yu glanced down at the metal door button on the floor.

He stepped on it.

The door activated—I think it was Zhao’s door.

Huh, nothing seems to have happened?

Just as Xiao Yu was about to jump down, his step halted abruptly.

No… Falcon’s Eye!

After a careful look, Xiao Yu sucked in a sharp breath.

He saw countless metal wires in the room below, thinner than a strand of hair.

If someone were to collide with these wires or fall onto them, what fate would await?

They’d be sliced into pieces in an instant!

‘MDZZ, this really defies human imagination!’

With the room’s temperature still rising, and drenched in sweat, Xiao Yu took a deep breath and fixed his gaze on the metal cube on the ceiling.

In one swift move, he jumped up and slammed his hand on the button of the metal door.

Smack!

The button was pressed and the metal door swung open.

Landing on the ground, Xiao Yu bounced up again, grasping the door with both hands.

One second… Two seconds… Three seconds…

After three seconds, Xiao Yu’s eyes lit up.

With all his strength, he jumped into the cubic room…
