Chapter 114 A Difficult Choice

“Shen Wei, are you crazy? Do you even know what you're trying to save? They're affecting your mind, understand?”

The Evil God Right Hand grabbed Shen Wei's collar and questioned him loudly.

“These children have experienced hell on earth. Our suffering is nothing compared to theirs. I don’t want them to endure painful reincarnation here after death…”

Shen Wei tried to open the prison door, but the Evil God Right Hand worked in the opposite direction, opposing him.

“Kid, there's no time. Run! Something's coming, something you can't stop…”

The Evil God Right Hand held Shen Wei back tightly.

Shen Wei was quite stubborn: “I want to do a death simulation. I suspect the path to survival is related to these children. One simulation; maybe this time it'll be dangerous but without casualties. I'll give you two years of my life…”

“You… I really can't do anything with you. Hurry, those things are coming soon. Look at the eye pattern on my palm…”

Shen Wei lowered his head to look at the red eye pattern on the palm of his right hand, and immediately his mind was lost within it.

My name is Shen Wei, and by the time you hear my name, I might already be dead. Right now, I'm trapped in a haunted house in a terrifying amusement park. The situation here is extremely critical, and I'm in a dilemma. Behind me, a group of organ harvesters are preparing to cut out my kidneys without anesthesia. Ahead of me are a group of pitiful children locked in rooms, begging me to save them.

But I know, there are no living people in this terrifying haunted house. These are just their ghosts.

Escaping would normally be the best option, but I just had to ignore the advice of my clever right hand, and let my saintly heart overflow…

I opened the doors one by one, releasing the ghosts of those children. Due to limited time, I wasn't able to release all of them. But I did my best. After being released, the child ghosts didn't harm me. Instead, they bowed to me together, said "Thank you, Big Brother," and then disappeared.

I was so moved by my own overflowing saintliness that I immediately wanted to buy a train ticket to Notre Dame in Paris and take the statue of the Virgin Mary down, so I could sit on it.

But before I could realize this idea, the fat corpse-like director and the headless orderly who had been chasing me flanked me from the front and back. In the end, I couldn't defeat them despite my best efforts. They put me on the operating table and removed all the organs from my body without anesthesia. I died, tortured to death.

"Simulation complete! Collecting lifespan…"

"Hurry, run! Those guys are really getting closer…"

After the Evil God Right Hand collected Shen Wei's two years of life, it frantically urged him to run, but Shen Wei, enduring the mental discomfort, stood still in place, lost in thought.

"Righty, I want to do another simulation…"

Shen Wei's eyes lit up, and he requested another death simulation.

"You're such a pain. Hurry up, look at the eye pattern on my palm…"

My name is Shen Wei, and by the time you hear my name, I might already be dead. Because unlucky me has fallen into a terrifying haunted house. Here, I faced a difficult choice: abandon the children locked in the rooms and escape on my own, or risk my life to release them.

At this moment, it felt like a devil and an angel were fighting each other in my heart.

Devil: "What are you pretending to be, acting like a saint? You're just a cold-hearted person. These aren't real children, just their dead ghosts, maybe even illusions. Is it worth risking your life for them? Absolutely not. What's more important than your own life in this world?"

Angel: "You are kind and rational. These children may be related to the path to survival.

Follow your heart's judgment…"

I hesitated for a dozen seconds, but those dozen seconds felt as long as a dozen centuries.

Finally, my reason prevailed over my morality. I hardened my heart and, ignoring the children's pleas, ran away alone.

Sure enough, the feeling of being chased disappeared. I arrived at the staff's safe break room, preparing to regain my strength and recharge the flashlight, but as soon as I stepped inside, everything went black and I was teleported back to the third floor.

But this time, no matter what choice I made, I could no longer leave. I was constantly killed, constantly resurrected. This became an eternal nightmare, my painful tomb.

"This time, I'm completely finished, worse than death. Simulation complete, collecting lifespan."

After collecting Shen Wei's lifespan, the Evil God Right Hand's tone was filled with confusion.

"What's going on? Whether you save the children or escape alone, it's impossible to escape death? What exactly is the path to survival?"

The Evil God Right Hand couldn't figure it out and fell into deep distress.

Shen Wei, meanwhile, was covering his chest with his left hand, constantly calming the shock that death had brought to his mind.

"Maybe I didn't release all the children, so I didn't trigger the path to survival. There's no time for another simulation, so I'm going to try it myself…"

Hearing the approaching footsteps from the stairwell, Shen Wei hardened his heart and began to open the rooms where the children were being held one by one.

There were quite a few rooms here, and Shen Wei couldn't release all the children before the pursuers arrived. But the more adverse the situation, the calmer his mind became.

Shen Wei boldly stopped the children who were trying to leave and instructed them to open all the unopened doors.

These eerie children focused their deathly gaze on Shen Wei all at once, and Shen Wei's scalp tingled, feeling like he had triggered a dead end.

But the facts proved him wrong. These eerie children began to scatter and run, opening all the locked rooms.

Shen Wei opened a locked room. Inside was a little girl curled up with her head buried in her arms, but this little girl was a bit strange. No matter how Shen Wei called her, she wouldn't leave.

Before long, the terrifying director with the fat body and hollowed-out organs and the headless male orderly had appeared at the end of the third-floor corridor. They were approaching Shen Wei step by step.

Danger was approaching, and Shen Wei didn't care about the little girl anymore. He turned around and ran.

The little girl raised her head and looked in the direction Shen Wei left, a trace of loss and disappointment in her eyes.

Just then, Shen Wei came back again. He rushed into the room where the little girl was being held, picked her up, and ran!

"Kid, I don't understand your thought process at all. Do you want to die that much?"
