Chapter 296: A Lesson Learned
As the words fell, the atmosphere turned tense.
The twenty people were all dangling roughly two meters below the level of the floorboards.
This distance was extremely dangerous because it fell outside the protection range of the Liar-Slayer.
No one could be certain if they would be sneak-attacked while climbing up—perhaps having their ropes cut, being struck by long-reach weapons, or even burned by a flamethrower.
At this moment, whoever climbed up first would undoubtedly become the target of everyone's concentrated fire.
Chen Ran also considered what would happen if he fired off the Eternal Kingdom right now.
But after thinking it over, the penetrative power of the Eternal Kingdom was too strong. Everyone would be teleported back to their original spatial layers, and they wouldn't fall to their deaths.
Moreover, the Five-Star Ghost Whisperer's skill was likely a Secret Room as well. As long as the Youth used his skill, they wouldn't fall to their deaths either.
Most importantly, no one had provided Chen Ran with a lie, and he couldn't possibly tell a lie himself.
