End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Going with the Flow, Entering the Instance
Although Bonnie had discerned that the three individuals before her were illusions, she refrained from voicing her realization outright.

In the current situation, Bonnie was uncertain about the potential consequences of making such a statement.

She could only approach General Howard’s aide and Ritchie, saying to them, “I believe we should consider our options more thoroughly, there is no need for us to make an immediate decision.”

Bonnie’s words left both General Howard’s aide and Ritchie feeling quite perplexed.

Ritchie, in an unfiltered manner, retorted to Bonnie.

“Given that Jeremy has informed us they have explored the majority of the instance’s areas, it stands to reason that we should promptly enter the instance. After all, our time is exceedingly precious.”

Ritchie, up to this point, still had not perceived the peculiarities present in the three individuals before him.

General Howard’s aide seemed to grasp the reasoning behind Bonnie’s remarks.

He nodded and addressed Ritchie, saying.

“I believe Bonnie’s suggestion is indeed more prudent. There is no need for us to rush. Furthermore, we ought to consult with the personnel from the Special Situations Handling Bureau.”

After delivering this statement, General Howard’s aide quickly departed.

Bonnie and Ritchie remained behind.

Left to explain to the three individuals before them why they could not immediately enter the instance.

“The three of you should be well aware that our temporary camp is quite populated. Therefore, before we proceed into the instance, we must make some preparations.”

With a smile gracing her lips, Bonnie addressed the three individuals before her: Howard, Jeremy, and Liam.

The politeness in Bonnie’s tone was so pronounced that it prompted Ritchie, standing beside her, to regard her with a look of utter bewilderment.

As soon as Bonnie finished speaking, Jeremy interjected directly.

“You must act swiftly! There are numerous monsters within the instance that require your attention! While the three of us are quite powerful, we cannot eliminate all of those monsters on our own.”

Bonnie nodded in acknowledgment.

“Rest assured, our pace will be exceedingly swift! General Howard surely has confidence in his subordinates, does he not?”

After conversing with Jeremy for a moment, Bonnie shifted her focus directly to Howard.

During the previous conversation, Bonnie had already determined that Jeremy’s logic in dialogue was notably more meticulous than Howard’s.

Thus, in Bonnie’s view, Howard’s responses were bound to be riddled with inconsistencies.

Upon hearing Bonnie’s question, Howard provided a perplexing answer without hesitation.

“All of you must enter the instance as swiftly as possible, and my subordinates are no exception. Only with a sufficient number of individuals entering the instance can our plan succeed.”

Howard’s response bore little relevance to Bonnie’s question.

Seizing the opportunity, Bonnie pressed on with another question: “Which of your subordinates do you trust the most? Who would you prefer to command the forthcoming actions?”

In response to Bonnie’s inquiry, Howard’s answer remained unchanged.

He merely continued to persuade Bonnie and the others to hasten their entry into the instance.

Howard’s replies even left Ritchie feeling somewhat unsettled.

Ritchie, now deeply perplexed, could not comprehend the reason behind such an unusual situation.

He leaned closer to Bonnie and asked in a lowered voice.

“Don’t you think the three individuals before us are a bit strange?”

Bonnie cast a surprised look at Ritchie, saying, “You’re only realizing this now? I had already discerned that these three individuals seemed rather odd. They are very likely monsters in disguise.”

Upon hearing Bonnie’s remark, Ritchie immediately donned his Ravager’s Gloves.

Since the three individuals before them were likely monsters in disguise, it was only natural to launch an immediate attack on these creatures.

Bonnie hurriedly intervened to stop Ritchie.

“We cannot act impulsively right now! General Howard’s aide has gone to confer with others. They should be returning shortly, and we can coordinate our actions then.”

Bonnie’s persuasive efforts proved to be successful.

Although Ritchie did not retract his Ravager’s Gloves, he maintained an air of casualness.

After a few minutes of waiting, General Howard’s aide returned, accompanied by a staff member from the Special Situations Handling Bureau.

“We have discussed for a while, and we all believe we should seize this opportunity to enter the instance.”

With a smile, General Howard’s aide addressed the group before him.

Upon hearing these words, Jeremy, Howard, and Liam spoke in unison, “Let’s set off now, we will lead the way for you.”

The three individuals spoke in nearly identical tones, which only served to further confirm Bonnie and the others’ suspicions that these three were impostors.

With a hint of concern, Bonnie turned to General Howard’s aide and inquired, “Don’t we already know they are fake? Then why should we act according to their instructions?”

“There must be traps laid for us within the instance. Moreover, I suspect that the first three individuals who entered have likely already fallen into a grave crisis.

If we proceed into the instance, we will undoubtedly face immense dangers.”

Although Bonnie lowered her voice, the urgency in her tone was palpable to everyone present.

Ritchie quickly nodded in agreement.

His thoughts aligned closely with Bonnie’s.

In Ritchie’s view, since they were aware of the traps that likely existed within the instance, they should certainly take measures to avoid them.

The aide and the staff member from the Special Situations Handling Bureau exchanged glances before slowly offering an explanation.

“What you say is indeed valid. We too believe that there are hidden traps lurking deep within the instance. Furthermore, the monsters within the depths are undoubtedly intent on capturing us all.

However, we cannot simply remain outside the instance and do nothing. As you rightly pointed out, the first three individuals to enter may very well be encountering significant peril.

I believe that their strength alone may not suffice to extricate them from the crises they face. Hence, I suggested that we should enter the instance ourselves.”

“Although our strength may not be particularly formidable, we have a vast number of individuals at our disposal. We can certainly utilize our numerical advantage to disrupt the internal dynamics of the instance.

In doing so, the first three individuals who entered the instance might very well discover a means to extricate themselves from their crisis.”

The words of General Howard’s aide were articulated with remarkable clarity and organization.

After listening to the explanation, both Bonnie and Ritchie felt that entering the instance indeed appeared to be the most sensible option.

“The dilemma we face is quite straightforward.” the staff member from the Special Situations Handling Bureau continued after General Howard’s aide.

“Staying outside the instance allows us to ensure our own safety, but it prevents us from extending any assistance to the director and others who have already ventured inside.

We can only offer them meaningful help by entering the instance ourselves. While this will undoubtedly place us in a precarious position, I believe that every person here should be undaunted by the prospect of danger.”

The statements made by the Special Situations staff member ultimately convinced Ritchie and Bonnie.

They exchanged glances, each confirming in the other’s eyes that they were in agreement with this course of action.

“Alright then, let us promptly proceed into the instance!” Bonnie stated with unwavering determination.

The aide to General Howard approached the three impostors: Jeremy, Howard, and Liam.

“We are fully prepared, and we hope to enter the instance immediately. Since you previously mentioned that you could guide us, please lead the way without delay.”

After the aide to General Howard finished speaking, the three individuals before him proceeded directly toward the entrance of the instance.

Naturally, General Howard’s aide hastened to follow closely behind.

Bonnie, Ritchie, and the others also trailed right behind the aide to General Howard.

Following them were individuals with comparatively weaker abilities.

Everyone within the temporary encampment was set to enter the instance, yet the vast majority remained oblivious to the fact that they were about to step into a trap.

Nevertheless, all of them were aware that they would undoubtedly face danger upon entering the instance.

Therefore, everyone had already prepared themselves for battle.

Under the guidance of the three, General Howard’s aide, along with Bonnie and Ritchie, as the first to enter the high-difficulty instance, immediately found themselves ensnared in a predicament.

Their predicament was entirely akin to that of Jeremy and his companions.

The moment they stepped into the instance, they became ensnared within the myriad worlds contained in different mirrors.

Relying solely on their own abilities, they would undoubtedly be incapable of escaping from the various mirrored realms.

However, the mere fact that they had entered these disparate mirrored worlds triggered a shift in the dynamics within the high-difficulty instance.

In the dimly lit hall, Jeremy, utilizing his talent as The King of Time and Space, immediately sensed the spatial fluctuations of the various mirrored worlds within the high-difficulty instance.

He realized that those waiting outside the instance had indeed entered its confines.
