Chapter 24 Simulation Training
“What’s going on?” Maryse muttered. The voice in her head startled her, but nothing changed at all. She still had not woken up to the seriousness of the situation.
After a while, Maryse finally noticed something was wrong. The villa became so quiet that she couldn’t even hear others' thoughts. She jumped off the pink bed and pushed open the door to the house.
“Hmmm?”
To her astonishment, Maryse realized that a huge change had taken place outside the villa. The familiar corridor had disappeared! Instead, there was a white platform. There was an extremely complicated large-scale maze on the ground. At the entrance to the maze, ten white mice were busy chewing.
“Who did this?” Maryse could probably understand that it was the master of the Babel Tower.
But beyond that, it was completely incomprehensible.
[Control all ten mice to pass through the maze within the given time. The maze changes after each failure.]
The cold and heartless voice of the man sounded in her mind again.
“What for?! I absolutely don't want to!” Maryse pouted.
In truth, she was testing the master if he would relent at her insistence. If he was easily affected by her appearance, it meant that he was not a truly ruthless person. Then, she could use this!
Maryse had accepted being part of the Babel Tower. Since she could not escape, she decided to take advantage of the Babel Tower and gain benefits from it.
The master of the Babel Tower casually bestowed a civilization-level relic to her. The organization was definitely powerful.
As long as she relies on the Babel Tower, she might be able to carve a different path. Maybe she could become a King-level supernatural being.
She looked at the ground and muttered, “If I can reach that level, the people in my family will no longer be able to restrain and hinder?me.
I would become the new family head, and they would respect me.
Maryse daydreamed until she realized nothing had changed.
The voice didn’t reply to her at all.
The mice were still eating their food. The complicated maze was right in front of her. She could complete the mission now.
“Fine, I’ll try.” Maryse raised her head slightly, and her emerald eyes turned silvery white.
Instantly, a white mouse was controlled by her and ran towards the exit of the maze!
“So easy!” Maryse smiled.
She pointed with her fair and delicate hand, and the second white mouse set off!
One by one…
Suddenly, all ten mice returned to their original positions, and the maze was reset to a brand new shape.
.
Maryse froze.
“The time is too short.” She could not understand it. She immediately controlled the white mouse to run the maze again, but she still got the same result as the last time.
“No way, it’s impossible to do it!” Maryse was getting anxious. There was no response to her shouting. The only sound was the gnawing of the mice.
“Hey! Hey! Don’t leave me alone! Help!”
“Boohoo, I’m so poor. My family didn’t treat me well since I was young.
Master! Let me out. From now on, I’ll be loyal to you.
Anyone here?”
After a long time, Maryse looked a little desperate. She could only try to control the mice again… at this time, she realized the key to solving the problem. She had to control the ten mice at the same time to rush toward the exit.
However, it was difficult for her to control ten mice together. Soon, Maryse felt dizzy and fell again.
“I can’t control ten in one go. It’s way beyond my limit.”
She tried to control three mice at once. It was easier this time, but there wasn’t enough time.
‘I have to push myself to the limit.’ Maryse muttered, suddenly understanding the true purpose of this training.
“I see. Babel Tower’s training is so targeted. It’s quite humane!” She no longer dared to offend the master.
‘Fuck you. You son of a bitch.
Wait- Could he have overheard my thoughts?
Sorry! I’m sorry! Master!’
Restless, Maryse closed her eyes and frowned, but no punishment awaited.
She patted her chest and exhaled.
Maryse began to control five mice together. After sending five mice away, she continued to control the other five. This time, it failed when they were only a meter from the exit.
But her eyes lit up. She had clearly seen the hope of victory.
“I can do it!”
However, the short distance of a meter seemed as far as an abyss.
Maryse controlled the mice again and again, constantly memorizing the state of the maze after it was reset. She only improved by a centimeter or two each round.
“Again…” She frowned and gritted her teeth. She suddenly started to fight!
Maryse was so focused that she’d forget the time. Just when she was about to give up, she finally controlled ten white mice to run out of the maze in the allotted time.
[Congratulations, Maryse. Training is over.]
[Training Succesful.]
Maryse found that she was still sitting on the big pink bed in a daze, and the servants’ voices sounded outside. She stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time.
“Mushrooms, hot dogs, bananas, so many different types of food are running through her head her head. Ahhh, it hurts…”
Maryse lay on the bed for a full half-hour before she came back to herself completely.
‘The Savior, if I see you… I’ll definitely give you a good beating.’
She wasn’t sure if he could hear her. The harsh words that were on the tip of her tongue changed.
A few days later, at dusk.
The wind gradually became stronger, mixed with a faint drizzle.
Bai Yan took the umbrella and went to a bus stop with a canopy near his house. Only a few people were waiting for the car. Even though people knew about the existence of the superpower, they still led normal lives.
Bai Yan glanced over and found the bench was not yet soaked with rain, so he sat down.
He would left the house on a rainy day because he had something important to do tonight. Bai Yan had always felt that waiting for the bus was a very boring thing. It made people feel that the time was very, very long…He picked up his phone and logged into the game to check the training results of the two core operators.
Daily record of Nightsaber:
Ate cat omelets. Mood + 2.
Found a cultist disguised as a worker and killed him in secret. Legendary point + 2.
Returned to the residence, trained hard in swordsmanship, and grew. DEX + 1.
“Not bad.” Bai Yan was very gratified. He even wanted to praise Nightsaber.

Secretly swore at Babel Tower when she was going to the bathroom. Mood +1.
Laid around in bed and watched videos of cute pets for the whole afternoon. Mood +1.
Bai Yan looked at the record of Maryse and fell into deep thought.
He’d been worried about tiring the girls out. It seemed that they lived a comfortable life.
“Whatever.”
Bai Yan shook his head. He had already arranged daily and weekly missions for them in the past few days. The points earned from the daily missions happened to offset the training consumption, but he still obtained a lot of points from the weekly missions.
“Next, I’ll start developing the base!”
Bai Yan tapped the fourth option at the bottom of the screen.
“Build”
