Josh subtly released Spider Silk, let it spread on the ground, allowing the crowd to step over it.

Once again, faint conversations could be heard.

"What should we do? I heard this dungeon is tough to survive. Are we going to die here?"

"It’s fine, don’t worry. Since we’re allied, we’re better off than others."

"Mm-hmm, don’t worry, if there’s any danger, I’ll make sure to heal you."

"I saw the dungeon rules say surviving for 20 days means we can leave. It shouldn’t be too hard. Don’t be afraid."

"Mm-hmm! I’m just glad to be in the same dungeon with you."

Josh frowned slightly, listening to the tone of voice, it seemed like they just arrived today.

Could it be that this dungeon keeps adding new participants?

However many die one day, would be replaced by the same number the next day?

But if that’s the case...

Oh, that works too.

Josh understood.

It’s like using a sieve to separate husks.

This dungeon is the sieve, and the players continuously coming in are the husks of grain.

Qualified players level up and leave after 20 days, while unqualified players die in the dungeon, unnoticed.

So this single-player dungeon isn’t a fixed number dungeon, but one where new players keep entering and old players leave alive.

Old players, once they’ve survived 20 days, can’t stay even if they want to.

Because space must be made for newcomers.

An effective dungeon for selecting talent.

She just didn’t understand, with the high filtering efficiency of this dungeon, why isn’t it used in the rookie dungeons instead?

Josh shook her head; this wasn’t something she should be concerned about.

She had breakfast with the main group and started work.

Her charge was still Shanwu.

When Shanwu saw her, his eyes lit up: "Oh! I underestimated you, still alive, must have some lucky break."

Josh smirked: "Just stepped on the crap you took last night and got lucky."

It took Shanwu a while to react, and he suddenly glared angrily.

This brat actually indirectly called him a dog?

Shanwu stared at her for a moment, then suddenly squinted, detecting something unusual about her: "You kid... you’re pretty clever."

Josh raised an eyebrow, glancing at him.

She didn’t understand what he was referring to.

Shanwu looked at her face, then suddenly snorted with laughter: "Turns out it’s just a blind cat catching a dead rat."

Josh ignored him, starting to snap the whip.

Shanwu began to curse, the two of them intermittently hurling insults at each other.

But Shanwu’s curses were the same repetitive phrases, and she had already extracted most of the useful information from him.

Josh didn’t spend much more effort on him, she released Spider Silk, moving towards other people’s positions.

However, many others didn’t talk to the monsters as she did, so she couldn’t extract further information.

Just heard a fair amount of cursing.

All were bragging, swearing, claiming how glorious their past life was.

If what they said was true, then those bound on the crosses were outstanding individuals in their original world.

Just didn’t know how they ended up here...

Josh sneered at the cursing Shanwu: "Bragging about the heavens and the earth, yet you’re beaten here. If you were so great, you wouldn’t have been captured."

Shanwu coldly retorted: "Same to you!"

Josh’s eyes flickered; every time the topic of being captured came up, this person became extremely wary, seemingly not wanting to bring up how he was caught.

She casually said: "With you bragging, I’m really curious now, how exactly did you get caught?"

Shanwu rolled his eyes, cursing: "Curious, are you? Better use that curiosity to count the stars, moron!"

Josh: "..."

So Shanwu was indeed avoiding the topic of how he was captured.

Josh frowned slightly, staring at Shanwu, suddenly saying: "You have an impressive look; surely you’re a standout, shouldn’t have landed in prison."

Shanwu rolled his eyes, "With your mediocre skills, you think you can read my fortune? Ridiculous!"

Josh’s eyes flickered; she really couldn’t read Shanwu’s fortune, she was just probing with no real intention.

There are two scenarios where she can’t read someone’s fortune.

One is for someone fake or non-existent, like a game character.

The other is when the opponent’s skill level is far above her own.

She’s unsure which category Shanwu falls into.

If she could figure this out, she would know if this prison dungeon truly exists or is just a dungeon.

Shanwu seemed to see through her probing attempts and refused to say anything more no matter what she said.

When she asked too much, he would harshly curse at her.

After lunch, Josh went along with the main group for exercise time.

With the previous day’s experience, Josh didn’t wander around but blended in with the flow, mimicking other NPCs and started wandering around.

Red light quickly covered the entire venue, and the NPCs present started behaving strangely.

Josh followed the monsters toward a certain direction.

This time, no one was foolish enough to shout out.

The eyes of the nearby NPCs glowed red, their expressions grotesque, resembling monsters.

Josh moved with the monster tide.

Suddenly, a monster approached her direction.

Some monsters sidled up, sniffing her, with strange expressions.

Josh was alert, not daring to act rashly, afraid to expose herself.

Her eyes scanned the other monsters nearby, seeing many moving in another direction, likely having found a closer player.

Josh was tense, quietly setting Spider Silk and webs around; any large action or attack attempt would activate her senses, allowing her to respond in time.

But these monsters just kept approaching without making any moves, not even showing any intention of attack, seemingly just curious about her, sniffing around her continuously.

Nearby, noise suddenly erupted.

A bloodied player burst from the crowd, leaping into the sky.

Josh followed their gaze, seeing the player obviously driven to the brink, covered in wounds, with flesh still torn, likely having had their identity exposed.

He, like Rob, possessed flying skills.

Soaring into the air, nearly all the monsters exercising below fixated on him, raising their heads to watch his direction.

Other besieged players sighed with relief.

The airborne player clutched his wounds, clearly unable to hold on for long, but the sky was his only safe place to rest.

He grinned menacingly, looking below: "Fools! Eat her, she’s also a player, why don’t you eat her too?!"

Josh’s expression hardened as she looked in the direction he pointed.
