End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Jeremy and Ritchie sought to extract more information from Howard, yet Howard did not afford them that opportunity.

He directly commanded his subordinates to escort Jeremy and Ritchie to a location that was relatively close to the human-controlled zone.

Although there were still some monsters and instances present in that area, the overall difficulty of those monsters and instances was relatively low. This meant that Jeremy and Ritchie would not encounter significant danger while situated there.

On their way out, Jeremy and Ritchie remained silent.

After all, the helicopter they were aboard was being piloted by one of Howard's subordinates.

They needed to show some respect for Howard in front of his staff.

Upon reaching the designated target area, Howard's subordinate flew the helicopter away.

It was only then that Ritchie turned to Jeremy and spoke.

"I believe Howard must be concealing some exceedingly important information from us. His demeanor was quite off, he is likely facing a dilemma that is difficult to resolve. However, he seems unwilling to disclose it to us."

Jeremy immediately concurred with Ritchie's assertion.

"You're absolutely right, but there's no need for us to dwell on the matter."

Jeremy felt that both Howard and Benjamin undoubtedly harbored numerous secrets.

In truth, Jeremy was not overly concerned about the secrets of these individuals.

As long as their secrets posed no threat to him, Jeremy would not actively seek to uncover them.

He glanced around at his surroundings.

He assessed that the instances and monsters in the vicinity were generally around level forty.

Although Jeremy's condition had not yet fully restored, with his current level and equipped gear, he found it exceedingly easy to deal with monsters of approximately level forty.

"Alright, let's not dwell any longer on the matter of Howard. Let's redirect our focus to our own objectives!"

With a single statement, Jeremy pulled Ritchie's attention back to the task of leveling up.

"The area surrounding us contains only instances and monsters around level forty. Therefore, this location is quite suitable for both you and Bonnie to level up.

I will reach out to Bonnie as soon as possible and have her come over. At the same time, I believe we should also bring Emma and Claire along.

Their levels are currently far too low, they have yet to reach level thirty. If we want them to provide assistance in our forthcoming endeavors, they must attain level thirty to undergo their second class change."

Ritchie was, of course, in complete agreement with Jeremy's proposal.

"I believe it is indeed time for Emma and Claire to level up.

How about this: you call Bonnie, and I will reach out to Emma and Claire. The area we are currently in isn't too far from their residence.

We should only need to wait about half an hour for them to arrive."

With that, Ritchie and Jeremy set off to execute their respective tasks.

After receiving Jeremy's call, Bonnie hurried to the location where Jeremy and Ritchie were situated with remarkable speed.

Although Bonnie had previously acquired some important intelligence related to Kean, she had no intention of directly sharing this crucial information with Jeremy.

In Bonnie's view, the timing was simply not right for such revelations.

"Did you two summon me here because you find yourselves unable to clear these monsters and instances without my assistance?"

Bonnie asked with a smile upon seeing Jeremy and Ritchie.

She posed the question in a lighthearted, joking manner.

Jeremy returned her smile and replied, "Indeed, without your help, we would struggle to manage these instances and monsters. Therefore, in our upcoming endeavors, you shall take on the primary responsibilities."

Bonnie approached Jeremy's side, saying, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate? After all, my level hasn't even reached forty yet. You have already attained level fifty and completed your awakening."

"Alright, you two should cease the banter now. Emma and Claire are about to arrive, and we ought to select a suitable instance before they get here."

Ritchie could no longer tolerate the lighthearted exchange.

Thus, he directly interrupted the conversation between Jeremy and Bonnie.

Moreover, the matter Ritchie raised was indeed of greater importance.

Jeremy and Bonnie had no grounds to refute Ritchie's words.

"We certainly should identify a suitable instance. I have observed an instance entrance approximately five hundred meters from here.

The level of that instance is around forty-one. The instance is only two or three levels higher than both of you, so you shouldn't encounter any significant danger there, and you can gain a considerable amount of experience points for leveling up.

Meanwhile, I can ensure the safety of Emma and Claire within the level forty-one instance, given that their levels have yet to reach thirty, and they would undoubtedly struggle to ensure their own safety in such a high-level instance."

Jeremy had thoroughly considered all the circumstances.

Bonnie and Ritchie, naturally, had nothing to say in response.

Their immediate task was to scout the area around the entrance of the instance.

Jeremy and Bonnie made their way directly to the entrance of the instance, while Ritchie remained behind to await the arrival of Emma and Claire.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the instance, Jeremy and Bonnie suddenly noticed that something seemed off.

"Why do I have the persistent feeling that the difficulty of this instance is not as low as it appears on the surface?"

Bonnie observed the situation around the instance and sensed that the monsters within were not as weak as they seemed.

Jeremy's expression turned slightly serious.

"You are absolutely right. Although the instance level is only forty-one, it appears that the monsters within are of a higher level than that of the instance itself."

Jeremy had, of course, also detected the abnormal conditions present in the instance.

However, he felt that even if the monsters inside possessed levels slightly above that of the instance, there was no need for excessive fear.

"I believe the difficulty of the instance being higher than we anticipated could be beneficial for us. We will be able to gain more experience points for leveling up in this instance."

Jeremy's statement left Bonnie with no retort.

She could only nod helplessly in agreement, saying, "You are indeed correct, I just hope that once we enter the instance, we don't encounter too many dangers!"

As soon as Bonnie finished speaking, Ritchie arrived at the entrance with Claire and Emma in tow.

Upon seeing Jeremy, both Claire and Emma's faces reflected their concern.

Claire immediately directed her question at Jeremy.

"Are you really certain that your physical condition has fully recovered? I believe you should rest a bit longer. Entering the instance to engage in battle right now seems rather perilous."

Emma quickly nodded in agreement.

Jeremy smiled at both of them and said, "I know you are very worried about me. But I can assure you that my condition has improved significantly."

Although I have not been able to recover to my optimal condition, the difficulty of the instance we need to enter is not excessively high. Furthermore, this time, I have the assistance of both Ritchie and Bonnie.

Therefore, there is no need for you to harbor any concerns, you simply need to level up to thirty as quickly as possible and complete your second class change."

Jeremy's words successfully alleviated the worries of both Claire and Emma.

Once everyone was adequately prepared, Jeremy boldly stepped into the instance first.

Claire followed closely behind Jeremy as the second to enter the instance, while Ritchie trailed after Claire.

Emma was positioned behind Ritchie, and lastly, Bonnie brought up the rear.

The reason for this specific order of entry into the instance was that Jeremy had taken into account the particular situations of Claire and Emma.

Given that Claire and Emma were not particularly strong, it was imperative that they remained within the protective range of the others.

Thus, it was essential to have a strong individual positioned both in front of and behind Claire and Emma.

As the strongest among them, Jeremy naturally bore the responsibility of leading the way for the group.

Bonnie, being the second strongest after Jeremy, was expected to guard the rear.

Ritchie, situated in the middle of the formation, ensured that Emma and Claire would not panic and scatter in the event of a crisis.

The moment Jeremy and his companions entered the instance, the overall circumstances shifted dramatically.

What was originally a level forty-one instance suddenly escalated its level to forty-three. This abrupt change sent Emma and Claire into a state of panic.

However, the expressions on the faces of the others remained remarkably calm.

Jeremy spoke in a very composed tone, saying, "You need not worry, the instance has merely raised its level by two. This does not imply that the difficulty has exceeded our capacity to handle it.

You simply need to follow my lead! I will eliminate all the formidable monsters, and you can handle the weaker ones."

Jeremy's reassurances successfully soothed the concerns that lingered in the minds of Emma and Claire.

Thus, Jeremy and his companions began to level up within the instance, now rated at level forty-three.

Under such circumstances, the rate at which Jeremy's level increased was, of course, not rapid, however, his companions experienced a much quicker rate of leveling up.
