Chapter 967 "The puzzle reappears, and the challenge is upgraded!"

Bai Xue was sweating profusely as she looked at the new wave of monsters that suddenly appeared in front of her. She couldn't help but slap her face: "Zhang Meng, are you kidding me? It's only been a few seconds since this level ended, and you're saying there's a new test? Can't you let me take a breath?"

"Haha, take a breath?" Zhang Meng waved his hand. "Do you think you are in a resort? This is a 'life and death challenge field'. How can it be easy for you to get through it?"

Bai Xue glared at him fiercely: "What an annoying guy!"

"Don't worry, Bai Xue." Zhang Meng looked relaxed, not frightened by the monster in front of him. "This level is difficult, but there are ways to crack it. As long as you analyze it calmly, all problems can be solved easily."

"I don't believe you're always this 'calm'." Bai Xue took a deep breath, "Well, since it has come to this, I can only bite the bullet."

Just as she finished her words, the monsters suddenly stopped and turned to cast cold glances at the two of them. Then - a deep voice echoed throughout the space: "Welcome to the 'Final Test'! What you are facing will be the limit of all your wisdom!"

"'Final test'?" Bai Xue was stunned for a moment, then a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes, "What do you mean? Are these monsters just the 'appetizers'? The real challenge is still to come?"

"That's right, Bai Xue, you finally understood." Zhang Meng nodded, "These monsters are just used to guide us. The real 'challenge' is the ultimate puzzle of the system."

"The 'ultimate puzzle' of the system?" Bai Xue felt a little dizzy. "You mean, we are facing a 'dead end'?"

"No, it's not a dead end, but a 'puzzle'." Zhang Meng patted her shoulder vigorously, "If you can crack it, you can win in the end. You have to understand that the real challenge is always to let you surpass your own limitations."

Bai Xue stared at the group of monsters in front of her, feeling a headache. "I thought this was the hardest part. What is this 'puzzle' you mentioned? Are these monsters part of the 'puzzle'?"

"You can understand it this way." Zhang Meng said with a mysterious smile, "Their attack mode is not complicated, but their real purpose is to make you fall into 'self-doubt'."

"'Self-doubt'?" Bai Xue was a little confused. "What does that mean?"

"It's to make you question your own judgment and doubt your own decision." Zhang Meng said lightly, "This is the last level to test your decision-making ability."

"Are you kidding me?" Bai Xue glared, "This is too much of a psychological game! It's just a fight with monsters, why do you have to use psychological warfare!"

"Haha, this isn't psychological warfare, it's psychological 'puzzle solving'!" Zhang Meng smiled, "Behind every monster's attack, there is a mind trap. You need to 'see through' their true intentions from their attacks."

"See through their intentions?" Bai Xue was stunned for a moment, "Then how can I know what they want to do?"

"This is the key to the puzzle!" Zhang Meng's eyes sparkled. "Look at these monsters. Their attacks may seem fierce, but they are not completely without trace. Each wave of their attacks follows a pattern. You only need to analyze their 'precursors' and 'consequences' to solve the puzzle!"

Bai Xue took a deep breath, closed her eyes and began to observe the behavior patterns of the monsters around her. She gradually discovered that the attacks of these monsters were not random, but had some small signs. Whenever they were about to attack, there would be some weak signals, such as the color of their eyes flashing, or the slight tremor of their bodies.

"I understand!" Bai Xue suddenly said, "Before each attack, they will have a subtle movement. As long as we predict these movements in advance, we can avoid their attacks in advance!"

"Yes! Bai Xue, you finally understood!" Zhang Meng gave a thumbs up, "However, just understanding these is not enough. You also need to pay attention to their 'changes'. Their attacks are not static, there will always be a pattern of change."

"The law of change?" Bai Xue frowned. "What does that mean? Will they become smarter?"

"That's right!" Zhang Meng smiled. "These monsters are not unchanging forever. As we crack their attacks, they will continue to evolve and become stronger. Therefore, you must not only predict their attacks, but also keep up with their changes."

"I see." Bai Xue nodded, with a determined light in her eyes. "It seems that this is really a double test of mental and physical strength!"

At this moment, the monsters began to launch a more ferocious attack, lasers shot out, electric currents shuttled through the air, and the space became more and more suffocating. Bai Xue and Zhang Meng began to concentrate, constantly avoiding the attacks, and analyzing the monsters' behavior patterns.

"Bai Xue, watch out!" Zhang Meng suddenly shouted in a low voice, "This time, their attack pattern has changed! Pay attention to the color of their eyes!"

Bai Xue stared at the monster nervously, and the color of her eyes really changed from yellow to red. She reacted without hesitation and quickly avoided the monster's laser attack.

"Good job, Bai Xue!" Zhang Meng patted her on the back excitedly, "You did a great job!"

"However, the next problem is even more difficult." Bai Xue looked at the monsters that became more violent, her eyes flashing with vigilance, "Their attack patterns are becoming more and more unpredictable!"

"This is the difficulty of the challenge!" Zhang Meng said with a relaxed smile, "But don't worry, Bai Xue, as long as you stay calm, you can handle it. Remember, don't be scared by their changes, but take the initiative to adapt to their rhythm!"

"Take the initiative to adapt?" Bai Xue gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll try!"

She began to quickly adjust her pace and attack angles, taking advantage of the gaps between the monsters' attacks to counterattack. As time went on, Bai Xue gradually mastered the skills to crack the monsters' attack patterns. Each of her dodges became more and more accurate, and each counterattack became more and more deadly.

"Wow! This is so cool!" A smile finally appeared on Bai Xue's face, "I can finally fight back against these monsters!"

"Haha, don't be too happy too soon." Zhang Meng smiled, "Look, a new 'test' is coming!"

At this moment, a huge figure suddenly appeared among the monsters, with the momentum to destroy almost everything. Its size was much larger than other monsters, and it looked like the "ultimate boss".

"I knew it. The strongest one is here?" Bai Xue adjusted her breathing while staring at the monster. "You always make the situation more and more complicated!"

"Don't worry! This is the most exciting part!" Zhang Meng waved his hand proudly, "Watch out, the 'Final Boss' is a gift I specially prepared for you!"

Bai Xue's face suddenly darkened: "Gift? You prepared a 'gift'? Don't tell me this is also a puzzle!"
