After Yuan Bao caught the small bottle, his Eye of Truth immediately displayed detailed information: [Intuition Enhancer ⊕ Effect: Sees through two layers of falsehood Duration: 10 minutes]
"This is so useful!" Xiao Jiu jumped up and down excitedly. "But Master, what do we do next? Those three people might still be outside..."
Yuan Bao checked his leg injury and found that the bleeding had stopped.
She gripped the booster tightly: "First, we need to make a plan. My current number is 5068, still some distance from the ultimate goal of 10,000."
She looked toward the only exit from the safe house—a small door, which the Eye of Truth revealed led to the "Seventh Floor Mixed Arena".
According to the information provided by Xiao Jiu, the seventh floor is one of the highest floors that ordinary players can reach, and it is full of high-value demons and other players.
“If we can find a rare ‘⊕⊕’ demon,” Yuan Bao calculated, “and combine it with an enhancement agent, we might be able to break through ten thousand in one go.”
Xiao Jiu looked at her leg with concern: "But your injury..."
“It’s alright.” Yuan Bao tied up his disheveled hair, his eyes resolute. “Now that I know the truth about the Demon Tower, I can’t let those guys succeed. Those collected intuitions… we must stop them.”
She put the enhancer into her pocket and pushed open the door to the safe house.
Outside the door was a dimly lit corridor, at the end of which came the sounds of fighting and the roars of demons.
Yuan Bao moved forward stealthily, his Eye of Truth remaining clear even in the darkness.
She noticed a faint light seeping from the tiny cracks in the wall—under the pre-activation effect of the enhancer, she could see these lights forming arrows pointing to a hidden passage.
"This way." She pulled Xiao Jiu towards the passageway.
At the end of the passage was a hidden small platform, in the center of which lay a demon never seen before—its body was transparent like a jellyfish, with star-like points of light flowing inside, and the numbers displayed above its head constantly switching between "???" and "500⊕⊕".
"A double-amplifier!" Xiao Jiu gasped. "This is a legendary, rare demon!"
Yuan Bao's heart raced.
By absorbing this demon, her numbers will directly break through the ten thousand mark.
But just as she was about to act, the second-level effect of the Eye of Truth suddenly caught a detail: the arrangement of the light spots inside the demon was strikingly similar to the data stream seen in the Truth.
"Wait..." she stopped the impulsive Xiao Jiu, "This is no ordinary demon."
Upon further observation, Yuan Bao was shocked to discover that this "demon" was actually a key data node in the system. Absorbing it might not just increase the numbers, but would actually affect the operation of the Demon Tower!
Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind me.
Yuan Bao turned around and saw the red-haired youth and his teammates appear at the entrance of the passage, with ferocious smiles on their faces.
"Found you, little mouse." The red-haired youth brandished his weapon. "Hand over the core key!"
Yuan Bao faced a choice: risk absorbing this special demon, or confront the enemy head-on? She touched the enhancement agent in her pocket and made her decision...
The red-haired youth's blade of light drew a dangerous arc in the dimly lit passage, and Yuan Baoneng felt the scorching energy brush against her cheek. She quickly retreated, pressing her back against the wall, her fingers tightly gripping the vial of intuition enhancer.
“Xiao Jiu,” she whispered, “prepare to disrupt the smoke.”
A resolute glint flashed in Xiao Jiu's dark eyes as she pulled a small silver ball from her fluffy fur with her tiny paws—this was the [Mist Bomb⊕] they had obtained on the third floor, capable of creating a smoke barrier that would disrupt the enemy's vision for a short time.
The red-haired youth's mechanical eagle let out a sharp shriek, its right wing unfolding to reveal a hidden scanning device. "She has the core key," he grinned maliciously, "and the system has a 5000-point bounty on it!"
Yuan Bao's gaze darted rapidly between the peculiar demon at the end of the passage and the three pursuers.
In the pre-activated state of the Eye of Truth level 2, she can see multiple data streams simultaneously: the red-haired youth's weapon energy is at 58%, the dreadlocked girl's movement speed is 1.3 times that of a normal player, and among the "Effect++" items on the bespectacled boy's waist, one is emitting a dangerous red pulse.
"Now!" Yuan Bao suddenly shouted.
Xiao Jiu immediately threw out a fog bomb.
It exploded in the air, and thick gray smoke instantly filled the entire passageway.
As the enemy coughed and cursed, Yuan Bao had already drunk the intuition enhancer—a cool liquid slid down his throat, immediately triggering an explosive sense of clarity in his temples.
The world was reshaped in her eyes.
The walls became translucent, allowing her to see the energy pipes inside; the three pursuers transformed into silhouettes of light and shadow composed of numbers; and the transparent demon at the end of the passage revealed its true form—a core node composed of countless glowing data chains, with a golden polyhedron floating in the center, covered with the same symbols as those on the walls of the safe house.
【System Secondary Control Node ⊕⊕】
[Absorption effect: Number x Current layer number + Direct access permission]
Without hesitation, Yuan Bao rushed towards the core node.
The enhanced True Sight allowed her to anticipate the light blade that the dreadlocked girl would thrust out from the smoke, and she barely dodged it with a sidestep.
"Don't even think about running!" the red-haired youth roared, and the mechanical eagle fired three tracking needles.
Yuan Bao suddenly squatted down, the needle grazing his scalp before embedding itself deeply into the wall.
She rolled forward, her fingers already touching the surface of the transparent demon—
The world suddenly stopped.
All sounds vanished, the pursuers froze in mid-air, and even the drifting smoke seemed to have been paused.
Yuan Bao found himself standing in nothingness, with only the golden polyhedron slowly rotating in front of him.
A gentle, inorganic voice spoke: "The secondary node has been contacted by the holder of the Eye of Truth. Activating the verification protocol."
Each facet of the polyhedron displays a different image: Yuan Bao's joy at solving his first math problem at age six; the moment he intuitively chose the correct answer in a school competition at age twelve; the resolute decision at age fifteen to reject the system's suggestions and choose his own path for the first time...
"Memory verification successful," the voice said. "Confirmed holder of innate intuition. Temporary access granted."
The polyhedron suddenly unfolded, transforming into a control panel made of light, covered with symbols and buttons that Yuan Bao had never seen before but were inexplicably familiar with.
The Eye of Truth automatically translated the main tags: [Energy Flow], [Player Monitoring], [Points Exchange Rate], [Memory Extraction Intensity]...
"This is... the Demon Tower's backend control system?" Yuan Bao touched the [Energy Flow] button in shock, and a huge network diagram immediately unfolded before his eyes, showing countless light spots sending energy to a black hole-like structure in the center.
Xiao Jiu's voice suddenly came from afar: "Master...be careful...the system's main consciousness..."
The sound was intermittent, as if it were being disturbed by something.
Yuan Bao then realized that half of her right hand had already merged into the console, and the data stream was spreading upwards along her arm.
"Do not resist," the system voice said. "Your talent is exactly what we've been looking for. Become the new core node, and you will gain unlimited privileges."
