"The first riddle is..."


    "I Speak without a mouth and hear without ears, I have no body, but Ie alive with the wind. What am I?"


    "....."


    All the neen yers turned to Supreme who just finished reading the first riddle.


    "What...? She is just making you guys more anxious" Supreme stated calmly, closing his eyes the next moment.


    "I am sorry for dying Supreme, but... that is not my intention, if I may ask, why aren''t you helping?" Schoolgirl asked with a smile, that wasn''t really a smile.


    Supreme opened one of his eyes and looked at her. "Why should I? You guys can take care of yourselves."


    The yers'' faces changed slightly hearing Supreme''s words, and started murmuring.


    "Do you guys think Supreme is an imposter?"


    "I don''t know, but if he is a yer, why isn''t he helping us?"


    "I heard he is a ruthless yer, I bet he chose imposter, to kill us all when we least expected."


    "You might be right"


    "Yes, we need to keep our guard up whenever he is around."


    "Don''t worry, we are higher than him, the lowest level among us is LV 15, and half of us here are silver medal holders, he is just a LV 5 yer in the bronze medal 1-star." the blue hair man said.


    "Don''t underestimate Supreme, If he is a normal low level yer, how could he climb the first ce in the ranking board in one game?" Schoolgirl stated calmly.


    Supreme closed his eyes, oblivious to the words around him, not caring a bit. With his advanced six senses, he could smell and hear things from mile away, he was just surprise that he hasn''t yet discovered the imposters.


    ''I don''t care about these fools, if I can kill these imposters, I will gain points, which I could use to increase my stats.''


    That was the reason he was busy trying to locate the five imposters. Killing that LV 15 monster gave him only 5 points. He was a little frustrated with his earning.


    ''Yeah, a LV 15 monster only give 5 points, I just hope these imposters have high levels, so, I can use them to mine points. I have elements of surprise, no one knew I can use weapons and can also summon my guy.''


    The yers didn''t focus on him anymore and turned to the riddle, their time was still reading, they don''t have time to waste on Supreme. A yer who is an imposter with one target.


    For the yers to loss the riddle and die, so he could win the triple rewards.


    "So what do you guys think?" Schoolgirl asked, as she observed the riddle.


    Some yers were moving back and forth, repeating the riddles, trying to find the answer.


    ~I Speak without a mouth and hear without ears, I have no body, but Ie alive with the wind. What am I?~


    "Wait! I got it!" A yer yelled out loud, drawing the others'' attention.


    "Please Wait, if it''s the wrong answer you will die, are you sure you got the answer right?" Schoolgirl asked with concern.


    ''Just let him answer, if it''s wrong he dies, What is the big deal about it.'' Supreme groaned internally. Opening his eyes, he observed the one who said he got the answer, a smirk appeared on his face.


    The guy was putting on a tight ck suit, which look like those superheroes'' worn in movies, he has ck hair and dark eyes, a little muscr and handsome. The guy was so confident that he nodded continuously.


    "Ok then"


    Schoolgirl stepped aside, as she and all the other yers took five steps back. The guy''s face changed slightly seeing their action.


    "What is going on?" He asked.


    "Nothing, we just want to give you space" a yer replied, while the others nodded.


    The young guy nodded, and said out loud. "The answer is Artificial-intelligent!"


    "Artificial-intelligent? As in AI?"


    "How is it Artificial-intelligent?"


    "Is that the answer?"


    "Nothing have happened yet?"


    "I think that is the answer"


    Supreme frowned. "Nice try" he muttered in a low voice.


    Schoolgirl was a little confused and asked. "How is it Artificial-intelligent?"


    "Artificial-intelligent speak without a mouth, it also hears without ears, it has no body..."


    "Then how can ite alive with the wind?" The blue hair man asked.


    "Don''t you get it?" The young yer smiled and continued:


    "When we ask AI for anything, What carry our voice?"


    The others yers looked at each other, not yet getting the point. Even Supreme was focused now, even though he already knew the oue, he also wanted to hear this guy''s exnation.


    "Is it the wind?" Schoolgirl asked calmly.


    "Correct, the wind carries our voice, which then bring AI to live, to answer our question." The yer said with a bright smile. Waiting for his fellow yers to cheer him up.


    ''AI? Why didn''t I think of it?'' Schoolgirl thought.


    "What a good logic, it almost goes with it" upreme muttered in a low voice.


    All the yers nodded, before they could cheer their savior, one of thesers pointed at the yer and released a bright red beam, Which shot with blinding speed.


    "Watch out!!" Schoolgirl yelled, but it was toote.


    The beam connected with yer''s head, and burst it open like a watermelon. Blood and brain fragments flew all over the ce. The yers all flinched in fright as they took a step back.


    THUD!!


    The headless body fell on the cold ground, as blood flows out from the neck.


    "BRRAGGHHH!!!"


    "Oh my God!!"


    "Fuck!!"


    Some yers started vomiting seeing the headless body. And brain fragments mixed with blood.


    The others yers were frozen in shock, as they scared at the young man''s headless body.


    "As I said, nice try" Suprememented. And slowly stood up. ''I think I should answer the question, the scapegoat has already fallen to his death. Which only means, my second answer is the right one.''


    "Does that mean the answer was wrong?" Someone asked.


    "It seems so"


    "How is that possible, the logic was correct"


    "Escape Room don''t focus on logic, you can only give the answer that have been set, even though you give a correct answer, as long it''s different from the one set by the game. It will be deemed wrong." Supreme exined, walking towards them.


    ''Years of ying escape room is not worthless.''


    "You! What can an imposter do?"


    "Are you here to deceive us?!!"


    "We don''t need you!"


    "Calm down everyone, maybe Supreme knows the answer" schoolgirl stopped the yers, and turned to supreme. "Do you know the answer? If you do, please help us, our time is running out" she said in a low voice.


    Supreme frowned but still nodded, "I know the answer."


    "Good!, please" schoolgirl gestured with her hands For him to pass. Supreme nodded, and walked towards the screen.


    "Did he really knows the answer?"


    "I don''t know?"


    "Let see, if he knows the answer or not, we lose nothing"


    Schoolgirl frowned and turned to the yers. "If Supreme fail the riddle and die, who among you will try to answer? If he dies, we all die" she said turning to Supreme.


    Supreme walked towards the screen and observed the riddle. He then turned to the timer. 0:40:32


    "Phew..."


    ''Here I go'' He thought as He opened his mouth.
