Maxwell commanded the Tier 1 female zombie to continue climbing upward.
Thus, the female zombie rose from the pile and continued her ascent up the pyramid.
However, when she reached the spot where she had previously slipped, the Tier 1 female zombie suddenly stopped, pausing for a moment before slowly stepping forward.
Maxwell watched her carefully.
The structure seemed to be made of rocks stacked layer by layer, and the zombies weren't exactly climbing but using their hands and feet to step up.
This time, there was such a step under the feet of the Tier 1 female zombie, and she stepped onto it.
She took this step and did not slip.
She didn't fall off the pyramid!
Then, the Tier 1 female zombie took another step forward, and then... as if cursed, she again failed to secure her footing and fell downwards.
Damn!
What was going on?
Unfortunately, Maxwell could only see this through her perspective and couldn't feel what she felt, so he didn't know why she fell.
But Maxwell was undeterred and continued to command her to climb upward!
At this moment, Maxwell wished he were that Tier 1 male zombie himself so he could climb the pyramid and personally experience why she fell from the same spot twice!
...
"Look, that guy is spacing out again!"
The woman named Wanda, sitting in the seat in front of Maxwell, turned around and commented again.
"I told you he's just lost in thought. Now do you see you were wrong about him before?"
"He really is a strange person."
Wanda glanced at Maxwell again and muttered under her breath.
When she looked at Maxwell, Wanda felt as if Carline was watching her, so she shifted her gaze and met Carline's eyes. The moment she encountered Carline's cold and emotionless stare, Wanda shivered, startled by the intensity.
Indeed, there was no emotion in Carline's gaze, but it was terrifyingly intense, as if a tangible force was shooting out, almost like a demon lunging at her, swallowing her in the blink of an eye.
Wanda quickly turned her head away.
"My goodness! That was scary! These two are really strange!"
She patted her chest, taking a while to calm down.
...
Meanwhile, deep in the cavern, Maxwell's Tier 1 female zombie was still persistently trying to climb higher up the pyramid under his command.
But each time, she managed only to take one step more than the last before falling down.
This repeated many times.
Maxwell's gaze remained fixed on the screen before him, not just watching the Tier 1 female zombie, but also observing the other zombies.
"No, it's not about slipping or unstable footing."
Maxwell quickly dismissed that reason.
"Could it be a magnetic field affecting them?"
Maxwell pondered.
But soon, he also dismissed that speculation.
"It can't be the magnetic field," Maxwell thought to himself.
At that moment, Maxwell saw that the Tier 2 female zombie he had sent out later had also discovered the wide passage.
True to her Tier 2 status, she was indeed faster than the Tier 1 zombies, although everyone was lost, the degree of being lost varied!
Maxwell quickly directed this Tier 2 zombie to head towards the large cavern.
During this time, Maxwell occasionally looked up to watch the matches in the fighting arena.
Today's competition would last all day, and there would be another full day of it tomorrow, with the main events likely happening the day after.
As Bernard had said, the zombies appearing in today's matches were very low-level, and those attempting to score easy points on the first day were definitely being watched by many, likely to be precisely targeted tomorrow.
So Maxwell wasn't worried at all about how Sacha would fare.
Maxwell continued to watch the screen in front of him, focusing on the situation in the underground cavern.
The Tier 2 zombie didn't take long to reach the lower cavern and squeezed her way to the base area of the pyramid, beginning her ascent.
"What's going on? This zombie fell from a higher point than the Tier 1 on her first attempt."
Soon, Maxwell noticed something different.
His Tier 2 zombie reached a higher point on her first climb than the Tier 1 zombie did after many attempts and falls!
"Could it be that this pyramid is used to test the zombies' levels? The higher the level, the higher they can climb?"
Maxwell couldn't help but speculate.
At that moment, he saw densely packed zombies higher up on the pyramid than his Tier 2 underground zombie, and an idea surged in his mind: "Could these zombies be of a higher level than Tier 2?"
Damn!
If that were the case, it would be quite frightening!
This was just the lower part of the middle section of the pyramid, and there were already so many zombies!
There must be at least hundreds more above, and if there are hundreds of zombies above Tier 2...
Doesn't that mean he could make a fortune?
However, the prerequisite for making a fortune is that he would be able to devour them all.
Moreover, climbing the pyramid could also increase the height with the number of attempts.
The Tier 1 zombie could also climb higher and higher.
So, he still needed to keep trying. Maxwell continued to direct the two zombies to climb upward, wanting to see how high they could ultimately go.
Thinking this, Maxwell averted his gaze and turned to Carline, saying, "Carline, let's go."
Then, Maxwell left with Carline.
Meanwhile, in this area, some people also stood up, preparing to follow.
"Don't mess around! Someone from the Alliance is here too, and they say it's a big shot, so don't cause trouble! Let's wait until the competition is over!"
Someone reached out to stop him.
"Don't be rash! You don't even know what strength others have, how can you dare to target them? You might not even know how you got unlucky in the end!"
Bernard, witnessing this, couldn't help but speak disdainfully.
"You think highly of him, don't you?"
One of the male Evolvers asked.
"I don't know about his strength; I just feel he's not simple, haha, it's all just intuition!"
Bernard responded nonchalantly.
...
Maxwell chose to leave because he had many other things to do.
First, he planned to find the management of the fighting arena and bribe them in various ways.
This way, Maxwell could keep Sacha to himself, not needing to store her at the zombie fighting arena. He indeed did not feel comfortable letting Sacha out, and it would be best if he could keep her until just before the competition.
After completing these tasks, Maxwell directed Sacha to enter the arena for twenty matches. Sacha easily handled the group of low-level zombies, effortlessly scoring twenty points, which also avoided the issue of entering tomorrow with too few points to catch up.
However, letting Sacha appear today inevitably attracted some people's attention, and she would also face the risk of being targeted tomorrow.
But Maxwell wasn't worried at all. With Sacha's strength, among the Tier 2 zombies, it would be modest to say she rarely met her match; she was simply an unbeatable presence.
