Calmly observing the situation outside, Chen Mo wasn't too panicked no matter what happened, as he now had the golden statue as a safety net.

The situation outside was chaotic; it was clear that more than one person was trying to break into Flying Dragon City.

Chen Mo hoped they wouldn't die too quickly, since there were fewer and fewer humans to be seen these days.

When Chen Mo was on the ninth floor, he wondered if all the humans in the world who had entered the Soul Tower were about to die out, since the Soul Tower was really difficult.

After waiting a while, with the outside noise coming and going, Chen Mo took out the map again to examine it and determine the location of the next statue.

Following the map's directions, the next statue is located at the deepest part of the map.

Nine times out of ten, they're not far from the leader monster.

As for things like authority, Chen Mo has absolutely no clue about them now.

After reviewing the map one more time, Chen Mo decided to rest a bit longer at the golden statue. Judging from the map, it seemed quite difficult to go any further down.

It's not just because of the Cyclops, but more importantly, there are quite a few elite monsters on this floor.

One, two...

Chen Mo was still memorizing the map when suddenly the wooden door was pushed open, and a person stumbled in.

Chen Mo immediately put away the map, gripped the Green Dust Sword, raised his shield, and assumed a fighting stance.

The man who rushed in stumbled and fell to the ground. When he turned around and saw Chen Mo, he immediately raised his hand.

"Boss, boss. Don't kill me! We're on the same side, we're all human, please don't do this!"

After saying that, the man quickly distanced himself from Chen Mo.

Looking at the blue-glowing axe in his hand and the more ordinary shield, Chen Mo could roughly judge the opponent's strength.

But since everyone uses cards, no one knows if the other has any powerful cards.

Chen Mo's health isn't particularly high right now, so he's still somewhat afraid of being ambushed.

"Stand against the wall with your hands up and don't move. Put down your weapons!"

Chen Mo said loudly.

"No problem, no problem. Let's not do anything, please don't do anything."

The man cooperated immediately, putting away his axe and shield and raising his hands high.

Seeing that he made no unusual move, Chen Mo nodded slightly and put down the Green Dust Sword.

Seeing that Chen Mo indeed had no intention of attacking, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wow, that sword is awesome! It's like a green card, incredibly powerful!"

Chen Mo ignored him and continued looking out the window.

The monsters outside seemed to be chasing someone, and they all moved away.

"My name is Lu Xin, and I'm the team's support. Did your teammates also get separated? We can team up, split the profits 40/60."

Lu Xin, the man, was clearly not working with other card players for the first time, as he skillfully revealed his team's location and the profit-sharing method.

Unfortunately, Chen Mo had no interest in him whatsoever and didn't even glance at him.

"My teammates will be waiting for me up ahead. We have a shield bearer and a main attacker this time. Boss, if your teammates can't get together in a short time, we can really team up."

"Shut up!"

Chen Mo finally glanced at him, signaling him to shut up.

Cooperation?

Chen Mo felt it wasn't necessary for the time being, and besides, some things couldn't be built on trust with just a few words.

The reason he gradually came to trust Lao Zhang was because Lao Zhang always acted promptly when it mattered and rarely let him down.

As for the person in front of him, to be honest, Chen Mo's intuition told him that the other party was very shrewd.

People who are too shrewd are generally not trustworthy.

After silencing the other party, Chen Mo observed the outside for a while to make sure no one else would break in before turning his attention away.

Without exchanging another word with Lu Xin, Chen Mo began eating on his own, continuing to restore his health and stats.

Lu Xin, still holding her hand up, looked at Chen Mo and said, "Boss, can I open the panel and chat with the team members? I don't want them to think I'm dead."

Chen Mo ignored him, so Lu Xin quickly put his hand down, opened his personal panel, and started writing and drawing with his finger.

In Chen Mo's view, he was writing in thin air.

Isn't this something that can be done with a thought? Just like using a card.

The extra movements are purely for showing off, or to create the right atmosphere.

What is he writing?

After a moment, Chen Mo realized that the other party had deliberately written it for him to see.

There are probably two intentions.

The first thing is to write something in front of him, so that he can see what you wrote clearly and avoid misunderstandings.

Secondly, I guess it was also a warning to him: I have teammates. Look! I'm chatting with my teammates right now, you can't kill me, my teammates will avenge me.

Chen Mo didn't bother with such petty thoughts and continued eating his cucumber.

After sending the message, Lu Xin whispered, "Boss, can I use a card? Don't worry, it's definitely not an attack card. I have a healing card. I'll heal myself first, and then I'll heal you too."

"A health recovery card?"

Upon hearing these three words, Chen Mo became slightly interested.

Lu Xin nodded repeatedly, then took out a blue card and even flipped it over to try to let Chen Mo see the card's effect clearly.

Chen Mo squinted to observe, and Lu Xin followed suit, reading the effect aloud.

"Bandage: Restores 10 health points per hour."

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow slightly; it sounded like a good card.

"Can the effects be stacked?"

Chen Mo asked curiously.

Lu Xin replied, "No, but using it once every hour will guarantee the recovery of 11 health points per hour."

Chen Mo nodded in understanding; it was indeed a good card.

Then Chen Mo said, "Let's take turns healing. You heal for an hour first, then it's my turn."

"No problem, boss. I have other support cards. If you can't find any teammates later, you can really consider teaming up with me. You have to team up to clear the Soul Tower. How can you clear it without a team? You'll die without a team, and you can only live with a team. You must understand this principle to have gotten this far."

Lu Xin used the card to heal herself, and then immediately used it on Chen Mo as well.

As the bandage took effect, Chen Mo felt a warm current rise from his waist and abdomen, and the slight pain in his body immediately disappeared. The effect was indeed remarkable.

Chen Mo didn't speak, only smiling inwardly at Lu Xin's words.

Suddenly, Chen Mo saw something else in Lu Xin.

Just as Lu Xin was using the card, he noticed the white spots on Lu Xin's neck.

Chen Mo immediately frowned and pointed to Lu Xin's neck, saying, "What happened to your neck? The skin has turned white."

Lu Xin wiped her face with her hand, then replied nonchalantly, "It's nothing. I might be sick, or I might not. We're in this situation, why worry about skin? Dying here from an illness would be a peaceful death. Even if it's vitiligo, it won't kill me anytime soon. Besides, this kind of condition isn't rare; I've seen quite a few cases."

Chen Mo didn't say anything more; he knew, of course, what the white dot meant.

Sure enough, what the book said was true; staying there for too long would indeed corrupt one.

It might not kill you now, but it might kill you later.

Corruption has always existed.
