Chapter 112: Full Tower First Kill and Wen Zhaohua Time Theory

Xun Hui and Wen Xishu really left the supermarket.

Xun Hui's last sentence was actually responsible for the personal safety of Wang Yueyun and others. What is about to start hunting is the peak among the boss-level.

If they cannot contribute core roles, there is no need to bring them along.

Xun Hui's approach is reasonable.

But the feeling of becoming a background board is really not good. Xiao Jin had a sense of frustration for the first time.

"Wow, this feeling, it's the first time I've had it." Xiao Jin squats by the campfire, with a smile on his face, but there is some unwillingness and sadness in his eyes.

Nisen is relatively easy to think, he says:

"Wen's ability seems to be a big cut above us. He and Senior Xun are together, just like partners."

Wang Yueyun clenches his fists. He has the determination to work hard and the courage to fight for his life. Before coming here, he did not choose items to save his life, but chose weapons. That is the courage he wants to prove himself.

But now, he has a feeling of becoming a burden.

Xiao Jin is just a child after all. Although he has always listened to his grandfather, not arrogant, and not looking down on others, deep down, Xiao Jin knows his talent.

Perhaps in the future, he will become the strongest combination in the Slaughter Tower with Senior Xun. But now, he finds that he can't even help.

Nisen seems to feel this atmosphere and claps his hands:

"Hey, bro, don't be discouraged. Wen is our friend. We should be happy that our friend performed well!"

"If we surpassed everyone early, then there must be greater troubles waiting for us. Now, what we should be glad about is that we only need to think about how to work hard to catch up with Wen!"

Nisen shows a mouthful of big white teeth. He has always been the happiest one in the team.

Wang Yueyun looks at Nisen's silly happy expression and nods:

"Your mentality is better than mine."

He actually doesn't need much comfort. Although Wang Yueyun was hit a bit, he was not depressed. After Nisen said this, he quickly thought it through.

Nisen smiles:

"I actually thought about it too. Is it possible that I am a one-in-a-million genius? But, after coming to the Slaughter Tower Academy, I found that there are quite a few people more powerful than me. Well, there's no way, I have to change my thinking."

Wang Yueyun shakes his head:

"We are just not as talented as Wen Xun, but that doesn't mean we are stinky fish or rotten shrimp. Nisen, we have to work hard. Xiao Jin, you too, don't feel frustrated, you are even more powerful than me and Nisen, even... Gongben Yishu is not as good as you."

Xiao Jin was really hit a bit:

"Wow, Brother Yun, Brother Nisen, you are so good. But I... I couldn't help at all this time."

Wang Yueyun says:

"Senior Xun has been stuck on the fifty-ninth floor for a while. If we can't help now, then we will help later."

"And everything about Wen Xun was fought for in the Mysterious Tower. The tracks are different, so it's hard to say. If you have the mood to be aggrieved here, it's better for us to review and reflect together on the situation at that time, why could Wen Xun find the weakness, but we couldn't?"

"Perhaps we should learn his way of thinking?"

Xiao Jin looks up:

"Ah... right! Grandfather told me that if I meet someone more powerful than me, I should learn his strengths well!"

Wang Yueyun nods and waves his hand.

The three of them gather together and start to slowly review the situation at that time.

Wang Yueyun saw the gap in talent, but he always firmly believed that his efforts would definitely be rewarded.

Xun Hui and Wen Xishu are now on the streets of this unknown city.

In the thick fog in the distance, some huge figures occasionally emerge, and occasionally encounter some monsters that flash by, like ghosts.

But the attention of the two has always been on the "coffin-carrying" team in front.

"Senior Xun, I have a question." Wen Xishu looks at the group of coffin-carrying people.

They are now about 200 meters away from the ghost bride. The two did not take action immediately. They planned to observe first, so as not to have other monsters appear around when they took action, becoming the mantis in the eyes of the oriole.

"Ask, keep it short." Xun Hui is not sure if it is suitable to take action now.

But if there is an opportunity, he doesn't want to delay because of conversation.

"You shouldn't have the confidence to deal with it, right? But with such a mention, you don't seem to hesitate much. Is the loot very rich?" Wen Xishu says.

Xun Hui gazes ahead:

"What you want to ask is, the first kill, right?"

Wen Xishu nods:

"Yes. To be precise, it is the time mechanism problem triggered by the concept of the first kill. But you can tell me about the first kill first."

Xun Hui's gaze never deviated by half. At this time, he is observing the movements of each coffin-carrying person.

"In the Slaughter Tower, if you kill a certain monster for the first time, it will count as your personal first kill. The personal first kill will have high experience, allowing your Slaughter Tower level to increase."

"In other words, the Slaughter Tower will encourage you to kill different types of monsters."

Wen Xishu says:

"But every monster is different, this world doesn't exist identical creatures, right?"

Xun Hui says:

"This is what your cultural class teacher has to teach, about the direction of evolution. In short, killing monsters with different evolutionary characteristics counts as your personal first kill."

"Take the normal species as an example. For example, in Yanjing, where I have been before, most normal species are very similar. These similar normal species are often group activities. Although there are some individual differences here, they are all counted as the same kind of monster."

"But if the place is changed to Shencheng, the normal species of group activities show another direction of evolution. This counts as a new kind of monster."

Wen Xishu probably understands:

"What about rare species?"

"The possibility of rare species being judged as different individuals is even greater, and then it is elite species. Every elite species, you can treat it as a first kill. There are very few elite species that are exactly the same. Rare and elite represent that they often have unique evolutionary routes."

"Just like the coffin-carrying people in front, sixteen of them, don't look at their similar shapes, but their abilities are different."

Xun Hui's explanation is still very in place, and Wen Xishu also figured it out:

"So I should kill rare species as much as possible, even elite species. The probability of getting a first kill is very high."

Xun Hui says:

"That's the truth, but the premise is that you can do it. Remember, if one day you kill a boss, don't think you can win steadily against elite species below the boss."

"Because of the unique evolutionary chain, you don't know which lower-level monster will happen to have the ability to restrain you."

Wen Xishu deeply agrees. He understands the truth of mutual generation and mutual restraint.

Xun Hui continues to say:

"Of course, the probability of dropping items for personal first kills will also increase. However, this is not the reason that attracts me. The reason why I am willing to take a gamble is first of all that I believe you will not take your life as a joke."

"Secondly, I want to complete the Three Towers First Kill. That is rarer and harder to do than the personal first kill."

Wen Xishu says:

"That is to say, you have to encounter a monster that no one else has killed... right?"

Xun Hui nods.

At this time, the ghost bride stopped at the entrance of an abandoned commercial building. It looks like it is about to have a conflict with the regional guardian here.

Xun Hui says:

"Personal first kills actually have a high probability of not dropping items, just increasing the probability, and high experience. If it is the Three Towers First Kill, it is different. The probability of dropping items will increase significantly."

Wen Xishu actually wanted to ask about this, which involves the mechanism of the time line. His expression became serious:

"Senior, you mean, you have to kill a monster that no one else has killed before, to count as the Three Towers First Kill."

Xun Hui nods:

"Isn't this obvious?"

Wen Xishu says again:

"So it means, the monsters in the Slaughter Tower world will refresh periodically? For example, the ghost bride, if it dies in your hands, will others be able to encounter it after a while?"

Xun Hui frowns:

"You actually don't know?"

Wen Xishu shakes his head:

"I really don't know. What I want to ask is, will the time of the Slaughter Tower world periodically backtrack?"

But if the concept of first kill exists, there is naturally the concept of repeated killing. It means that the monsters in the Slaughter Tower will be resurrected after death...

Then does it mean that the "online game" of the Slaughter Tower will "rollback".

Wen Xishu is very curious. Does it mean that his communication with Tang Rui and others, and the memories of Tang Rui and others, will also be rolled back? He feels it shouldn't be like this.

Xun Hui is a bit surprised:

"You and Wen Zhaohua are indeed very similar. You actually asked the same question."

Wen Xishu smiles:

"He is my own brother, so it is normal for some places to be similar. Senior, I am really curious about this question."

Xun Hui confirms that now is not the time for battle, so he says:

"It's a cycle. The time mechanism node of the Slaughter Tower is constantly cycling. The cycle period is unclear. In fact, the one who solved this mystery is also your brother Wen Zhaohua."

"Wen Zhaohua wrote a book called Three Towers Time Theory. But it was banned by the old principal immediately after it was published. Only the Wen family, the old principal, and I and the mirror have seen it."

Wen Xishu is a bit puzzled:

"Even if his character is bad, it shouldn't be that the useful books he created are also banned, right? After all, it is to broaden people's cognition."

Xun Hui says:

"Some things are hard to explain clearly. Well, actually I don't understand it very well, but maybe you will grow up and be able to investigate the truth."

"However, fortunately, I have read that book. I won't talk about the Mysterious Tower and the Tower of Desire, I can explain the Slaughter Tower to you."

"In the Slaughter Tower, time is actually constantly cycling. The cycle period is thirteen months."

"In these thirteen months, no matter what you do, how many monsters you kill, the things you do will be erased after the next cycle begins, and the monsters you killed will be resurrected again. Because the time line has returned to before you killed the monster."

"However, Wen Zhaohua said that there is a way to advance the time line."

"If you climb the tower at a certain time node and change the fate trajectory of some monsters, then the time line will be advanced."

"The time node when the next cycle begins becomes the node when you successfully return to the bunker after changing the monster's fate trajectory, and the cycle period remains unchanged."

Xun Hui rarely shows an embarrassed expression. He scratches his head and says:

"This is the original words in your brother's book. Did you understand?"

Xun Hui didn't understand it at the time because he found it difficult to understand some of the logic inside, so he asked Wen Zhaohua many times before he understood.

Wen Xishu nods:

"Understand."

"Really understand?" Xun Hui expresses doubt.

Wen Xishu smiles:

"Of course. It's easy to understand. Take an example, the time cycle is thirteen months, say from January 1, 2025 to February 1, 2026. And if I suddenly changed the fate trajectory of a boss-level monster on February 1, 2025 in the Slaughter Tower, and left the Slaughter Tower and returned to the bunker on February 2, 2025, then the time cycle range becomes February 2, 2025 to March 2, 2026."

Xun Hui nods, it is like this.

Well, he has to admit that he didn't understand it at the time, and didn't understand at all how Wen Zhaohua discovered it.

Wen Xishu says:

"So, this kind of fate trajectory change should have restrictions... Does it mean that outside of battle, killing is obviously not counted?"

Xun Hui nods:

"Yes. Killing in the Slaughter Tower is not counted as changing the fate trajectory."

Wen Xishu feels it's interesting. In the Tower of Desire, you can't kill people. Because the rules don't allow it. But if you really kill someone, you can directly affect the content of the Mysterious Tower and the Slaughter Tower, and can affect the content of the real world.

And in the Slaughter Tower, you can kill at will. But, killing monsters in the Slaughter Tower will not advance the time line and will not change any trajectory.

"Because the monsters in the Slaughter Tower kill when they see people... and most of the monsters in the Slaughter Tower cannot communicate, and in the Slaughter Tower, there is almost no possibility of changing the fate trajectory of the monsters..."

"So the possibility of other bunker players advancing the time line is very, very low."

"But just now, because I chatted with Tang Rui and others, I didn't kill, I just guided them with words. This should count as changing the fate trajectory, right? In this way..."

"Didn't I just advance the time line cycle node of the Slaughter Tower just now?"

"And the reason why I can change Tang Rui's fate trajectory stems from my accumulation in the Tower of Desire and the Mysterious Tower."

Wen Xishu looks at Xun Hui, realizing a very key point:

"Senior Xun, is it very difficult to advance the time line just by climbing the Slaughter Tower? That is to say, in fact, the monster you are dealing with on the 59th floor is a monster stuck in a certain time node."

"Take my previous example, assuming we are in January 2025, then the Slaughter Tower will cycle from February 2026."

"If no one has ever changed the fate trajectory of the monsters in the Slaughter Tower, it is equivalent to saying that the monster you are dealing with has always been before February 2026."

Xun Hui nods: "Yes, what's the problem?"

Wen Xishu says:

"Of course there is, and the problem is huge."

"The Slaughter Tower is just a simulation, but the time in the real world will not stop. If we can never advance the time line, then we will never know... what year it is in the real world, maybe it is 2088, 2089, 2100, who knows."

Xun Hui freezes, he suddenly feels a sense of fear.

Wen Xishu says:

"Bunker players can indeed kill monsters in the Slaughter Tower and grow constantly. Especially geniuses like you, Senior, you have come to the 59th floor in just a few years... Your progress speed is faster than the evolution speed of the Slaughter Tower monsters."

"But if you can never advance the time line, you don't know, in the real world, which version the monsters have evolved to."

"When you finally defeated the 2026 version of the monster... is it possible that the monster's real time line has already reached decades later, and in decades of time... it has evolved crazily, and is no longer the same as the 2026 version."

This is like, the tower server players are stuck in the 2026 version and finally summarized the playing methods of various dungeons, but in fact, the world server has long been updated to the 2088 version, and all playing methods are outdated.

Xun Hui was silent for a long time, rarely not observing the battlefield, and looked at Wen Xishu. His expression was unprecedentedly serious.

He was obviously convinced by Wen Xishu and thought that what Wen Xishu said was likely true. In fact, the old principal also said similar things.

"The Slaughter Tower is a channel for us to understand the real world, and it is also a channel for us to improve and change the real world, but the Slaughter Tower is not the real world."

At first, Xun Hui didn't understand this sentence, but now he seems to understand it. You work hard to kill the enemy, it is likely that you are just fighting the ancient version of the monster.

If you don't find a way to update the version of the simulator... then you are just the strongest in this simulator.

In the real world, perhaps those monsters that have been killed by you many times have long evolved to an unimaginable level. But in the Slaughter Tower, if you don't advance the time node, their ability value fluctuations are just fluctuating in the thirteen months of time.

Therefore, what he said to Wen Xishu before, that the ghost bride's strength is stronger than when the old principal dealt with it, is not established. The old principal fought the ghost bride many years ago, but for the Slaughter Tower players, the ability fluctuation is only the change amount of thirteen months.

"Wen Xishu, what you said is very right. I seem to know why this book was banned... It is likely that this will trigger thinking and cause people to fall into panic."

Wen Xishu says:

"I'm afraid, this is also the reason why the old principal is desperately trying to get through the 100th floor."

In Albert's cognition, only after the 100th floor can one catch a glimpse of some truth. Only then can one change some situations.

Xun Hui did not speak.

Wen Xishu did not tell Xun Hui that just now, he had already advanced the time line and updated the version.

Now Wen Xishu has reached a very surprising conclusion: only by anchoring new fate trajectories for those boss-level monsters who are still at the human stage in the Tower of Desire and the Mysterious Tower can you have the qualification to advance the time line in the Slaughter Tower.

The invitation mechanism of the Mysterious Tower can allow you to return to the most critical time node of the Tower of Desire, and the Mysterious Tower itself can obtain powerful items.

At the same time, the Tower of Desire and the Mysterious Tower allow you to have the opportunity to update the version in the Slaughter Tower.

The Three Towers are closely related. And the Mysterious Tower is the best entrance.

When Wen Xishu communicated with Tang Rui and others just now, he changed Tang Rui's trajectory through non-combat methods such as thought and verbal guidance, which may also lead to Jack, Jennifer, and the An brothers' thinking about the situation.

Thirteen months later, the cycle begins, and time will not return to before everything happened, but will return to the time he successfully returned to the bunker this time.

In other words, in the next cycle, the strange plant and the supermarket guide will not be resurrected. Because the earliest node of the cycle has become the node after they were killed.

"If I come to the Slaughter Tower to explore periodically, as long as this cycle is less than thirteen months, and periodically change the fate trajectory of some people..."

"Then I can keep advancing the version, letting the Slaughter Tower world, which was originally in a cycle, move forward normally... Under this premise, the cycle is broken."

"Senior Xun, the old principal, and all the warriors in the bunker fighting in the Slaughter Tower... will be able to come into contact with more future content and understand more about the changes in the situation in the real world."

"But this premise is that I can always change the trajectory of the monsters in a non-combat way."

"In other words, I cannot stop exploring the three towers, and I cannot lack one."

Actually, Wen Xishu is not very worried about the fact that bunker players' versions are lagging behind the real world.

Because the various rewards for exploring the three towers, as well as the speed of human evolution... make Wen Xishu feel that bunker players are the real gods.

As long as you find a way to advance the version, the progress of bunker players is a dimensionality reduction strike for those monsters that hunt other creatures to evolve.

And, Wen Xishu is sure that there must be some way to significantly update the version. At the same time, in a sense, the longer the interval between the time lines of the real world... then the butterfly effect is more exaggerated, and the snowball effect produced by changing someone is also more exaggerated.

Perhaps Albert has realized this. Albert knows more than anyone else. In short, for people at the current stage, there is always only one thing to do—

Climb the tower, keep climbing the tower, climb to an unprecedented level, and find the road to link to the real world.

"Wen Zhaohua must have discovered this... but Wen Zhaohua later suddenly went crazy and led the Wen family to do some things that were intolerable to gods and men."

"Why? What is the significance of his doing this? And, what exactly did he do."

Wen Xishu decided to have a good talk with the old principal after going back this time.

The old principal must know much more than Xun Hui.

And Wen Xishu also really wants to know from the old principal... if the Slaughter Tower is just a simulation, then his changing the fate trajectory of Tang Rui and them, besides advancing the time line, what other significance does it have? Will it affect the real world many years later?

For example, after completing the recruitment mission, is this recruitment limited to the Slaughter Tower, or is it also effective for the real world? After changing the fate trajectory of some people in the Tower of Desire and the Mysterious Tower, did it only change their trajectory in the Slaughter Tower, or the trajectory of the real world?

Wen Xishu can actually guess that it should be the latter. Otherwise, the twelve zodiacs could not be so eager to win over bunker players.

The influence of the three towers on the world should be objectively existing.

Xun Hui suddenly shook his head and said:

"My cultivation is really not enough. I actually started to worry about these ethereal things."

Wen Xishu is puzzled:

"Senior, what are you talking about?"

Xun Hui's expression became firm again:

"You are right, it is very likely that the monsters we deal with in the Slaughter Tower are outdated versions. But so what?"

"I am still far from needing to worry about these. When I become the strongest creature in the entire Slaughter Tower, that is what I need to consider, isn't it?"

"No matter what, what I can do is always to keep getting stronger."

Wen Xishu pays tribute. Xun Hui is indeed a born warrior and can easily overcome confusion.

At this very moment, the ghost bride has successfully dragged the regional guardian of the area she invaded... into the coffin.

Xun Hui says:

"Okay, don't think about those irrelevant things. Wen Xishu, I'm going to sprint now, I will solve those elite species at the fastest speed."

"You better ensure that you can force her out of the coffin!"

Wen Xishu took out a pair of gloves with fire-red luster and the ※ symbol from the item bar:

"No problem, but I have to be a little closer to that ghost bride."

"By the way, Senior, if you kill the ghost bride, and assuming we advanced the time line... then the ghost bride will become an out-of-print monster?"

"This kind of kill, others won't be able to kill it, right? Will there be extra rewards? After all, this can be considered an out-of-print kill, right?"

Xun Hui did not answer Wen Xishu's question. A terrifying aura erupted, and he found the flaw exposed by the ghost bride and the coffin-carrying people!

This moment is the best time to cut into the battlefield!

As for the answer to Wen Xishu's question... there is indeed one, and there is a kind of kill that has a higher reward than the Three Towers First Kill, which is "Tower Retreat Kill".

This is actually something that Wen Zhaohua verified.

The mechanism is what Wen Xishu said, killing a powerful monster during the version update, that is, the time node advancement period, making it permanently exit the Slaughter Tower world.

This kind of reward will be more exaggerated than the Three Towers First Kill. But almost no one can do this. Because whether it is the Three Towers First Kill or the Tower Retreat Kill, there are high requirements for the evolution level of the monster. At least you have to kill a boss-level to have this treatment.

Killing a boss for the first time is already very difficult, let alone having to change the fate trajectory and advance the time line. If you really did it, and the target is the ghost bride, that is a personal first kill, Three Towers First Kill, plus Tower Retreat Kill.

Xun Hui doesn't think answering this question at this moment is meaningful, because it is unrealistic.

Wen Xishu only feels the wind blowing in his face.

The next instant, he felt the strong airflow blow him away, but suddenly the world turned upside down, and he seemed to be pushed forward by a more powerful force.

And at the same time, Xun Hui had already drawn his great sword and waved it crazily. Sixteen coffin-carrying people were cut at the waist in an instant.

What a terrifying speed...

Wen Xishu now finds that he was thrown into the sky by Xun Hui. At this time, he is overlooking the battlefield in mid-air, and finds that Xun Hui used the momentum of thunder to kill eight elite species in seconds.

So this is the real strength of the number one person on the Slaughter Tower ladder!

He couldn't even see clearly.

Facing this kind of pervert, any item is useless. Your lifting action, in the eyes of others, is incomparably long.

Wen Xishu in mid-air is constantly falling, but he is also getting closer and closer to the battlefield. The reason why Xun Hui did this is to ensure that Wen Xishu's distance is slightly closer to the coffin.

Wen Xishu also extended his palms at this moment and began to confront the coffin. Phoenix Gloves · Solution locked onto the coffin in an instant. Xun Hui found that the coffin suddenly emitted light similar to the gloves.

He is now convinced that Wen Xishu really has something.

However, Xun Hui did not rush into the coffin immediately, but first killed the elite species around him at the fastest speed!

He is now fully firing, and even the Realm of No-Self is used. The terrifying explosive power made those coffin-carrying people unable to parry at all.

When Wen Xishu landed, Xun Hui had already killed all the coffin-carrying people.

A shrill and resentful roar appeared. The owner of the coffin originally intended to release huge mental power and resentment. On one hand, it wanted to summon all the resentful spirits in the deserted village. On the other hand, it needed to let the resentment be like a black hole, sucking Xun Hui into the coffin.

But both of its methods failed.

These two methods of borrowing the coffin could not exert any effect. It, who was hiding in the spiritual world... also suddenly felt that it seemed to have lost connection with the world in the coffin.

It turned its head suddenly and found that the surroundings were no longer a deserted village, but a coffin emitting fire-red light.

Red bridal veil, red wedding dress, pale face, and the constantly squirming fine hair.

It has been too long, too long, since anyone has seen this scene, and the ghost bride herself has not been illuminated by the sunlight of the real world for a long time.

Xun Hui is incomparably excited inside. The hope of the Three Towers First Kill has really appeared. Where did this kid Wen Xishu get these things?

He made a throwing javelin action and then threw the great sword out fiercely. The terrifying flying sword smashed directly at the ghost bride and pierced through the ghost bride's body.

Then Xun Hui shouted:

"Rise!"

The great sword was quickly recovered, and the ghost bride was directly pulled out of the coffin.

Boss-level monster, the ghost bride was forced out of the coffin for the first time.

Its expression was incomparably resentful, and the sky suddenly turned blood red. The wound that had been pierced through was actually healing in an instant.

Xun Hui naturally didn't expect to kill a boss-level monster in an instant. He took a step forward, dragging the great sword with both hands, and approached the ghost bride with a super fast speed that was difficult to track with the naked eye.

But a strange scene happened.

The blood-red sky suddenly had a boundary. Looking up from the bottom, it was a huge red bridal veil falling from the sky.

At the same time, the blood-red barrier also expanded from the red wedding dress.

The two barriers of the red wedding dress and the red bridal veil merged together to form a crimson cage.

The effect of this cage is no different from the coffin.

At this very moment, Xun Hui felt great vigilance inside.

Because what he saw was no longer the doomsday wasteland, but a deserted village, where countless old people, children, and women in white clothes stared at him with resentful eyes.

"Bad, this female ghost actually found a way... to transfer the power of the coffin to other items!"

Xun Hui realized the truth of the matter in an instant.

This ghost bride actually knows its own weakness. The coffin is its reliance, but it also limits its progress. That coffin can lead to the spiritual world, but it also needs to be fed.

This led to the ghost bride killing many monsters, but the evolution speed was slow, and most of the monsters were fed to the coffin.

So many people think that as long as you can break the coffin, you can kill the ghost bride. But in fact, the ghost bride knows this better than most people. She has been hiding in the coffin, only using the coffin to kill enemies, and never considers killing enemies alone, swallowing monsters to evolve alone...

Just to cover up another killer move.

That is the red bridal veil and the red wedding dress, these two items are also god-level items. It's just that people don't know, because most people don't even have the qualification to see these two items.

Wen Xishu also reacted immediately. This woman has two more items. These two items can be considered a weakened version of the coffin, and the effect is that she can actively create a "spiritual world".

This is good, he and Xun Hui directly entered the spiritual world.

Any resentful spirit in this ghost place can kill him in seconds.

But Wen Xishu didn't panic:

"If this were in the Mysterious Tower, it would be a reversal level. I have to say, this ghost bride is indeed hard to guard against."

"It's a pity, you have four twos, I have a pair of kings."

Wen Xishu made a response in an instant. Another ability of Phoenix Gloves · Solution was activated, disabling the item bar.

Just when Xun Hui was incomparably worried about Wen Xishu, thinking about how to save Wen Xishu, a scene that shocked Xun Hui appeared.

The surrounding spiritual world suddenly began to shatter.

Those deserted village resentful spirits that were rushing towards him also disappeared in an instant. The original deserted village also disappeared like a dream bubble. Replacing it was the familiar doomsday city ruins.

"It's now, Senior, don't be dazed!" Wen Xishu, who had known all this, reminded loudly.

The stunned Xun Hui immediately realized that the opponent hadn't reacted yet!

This ghost bride also didn't expect that after finishing the big move, how did it become the opponent's turn? It felt unbelievable and couldn't understand the current situation, so it froze in place.

Xun Hui reacted incomparably quickly. At this moment, all his strength gathered on his hands.

Realm of No-Self activated. Xun Hui, who could not be attacked and seemed to be ghost-like, came to the ghost bride in just a blink of an eye.

This time Xun Hui didn't use a sword, but like dealing with the supermarket guide before.

The resentment in the sky could not hinder Xun Hui. Xun Hui was like a special existence that could not be selected in the game. The female ghost's resentment barrier was easily passed through by him.

Then, his hands passed through the female ghost's body.

Realm of No-Self, released.

The suddenly materialized body caused the female ghost's body to be pierced instantly. Xun Hui roared and tore this terrifying ghost bride, who was about to step into the red house, to pieces!

The ghost bride actually didn't die. Its body flowed with blood. Those bloods gathered together like living things, and then crawled like snakes, constantly approaching the coffin.

Blood connection.

Wen Xishu thought of it instantly. I am afraid that the ghost bride can forcibly activate the coffin through blood, or some kind of mystery?

He is not sure if this is the case, but he knows one thing: only an idiot would let the enemy complete its mystery kill before the enemy is about to die.

Xun Hui thought the same, so Xun Hui summoned the great sword and cut off the ghost blood that was crawling like a snake.

But after the ghost blood was cut off, it gathered together again and slowly approached the coffin.

No matter how Xun Hui cut it, no matter how the powerful force twisted the ghost blood, it was constantly approaching the coffin.

This is a process that cannot be interrupted!

So Wen Xishu didn't say a word and jumped into the coffin directly.

This operation stunned Xun Hui: Why did he lie in it?

"Kick!" Wen Xishu only said one word.

Xun Hui immediately understood what a combat strategy this was. He didn't hesitate and kicked the coffin heavily the moment the ghost blood approached the coffin.

The terrifying force kicked the coffin dozens of feet away. Now the ghost blood suddenly stopped, because it was too far away from the coffin.

If you can't hinder the ghost blood, then hinder the coffin.

Xun Hui has to admit that Wen Xishu's thinking is really active.

The ghost bride, who had already been torn apart, let out a shrill roar, and the ghost blood, seeing that returning to the coffin was hopeless, finally began to dissipate.

But the ghost bride didn't die either, and the battle wasn't over yet. The strange red bridal veil seemed to be freed from some kind of imprisonment. The red wedding dress was the same.

They seemed to have souls. The red wedding dress began to repair the ghost bride's body, and the red bridal veil floated towards the sky again, turning into a huge blood-red mist with boundaries. 【112-286

They seemed to have a soul of their own; the red wedding dress began to repair the Ghost Bride's body, while the red bridal veil floated toward the sky once more, transforming into a massive, bounded blood-red mist.

The red bridal veil descended from the sky; this was clearly the Ghost Bride attempting once again, using the same method, to drag Xun Hui into the spirit world.

Xun Hui also understood completely: Wen Xishu must have sealed an item, mastering an ability or tool capable of sealing monster items.

But this ability or tool had a range.

The reason Wen Xishu lay inside the coffin was to ensure that he and the coffin remained close at all times, never leaving the effective range of the ability.

Only by sealing the coffin was it possible to defeat the Ghost Bride.

As for the red bridal veil and the red wedding dress...

If it were that first sneak attack, Xun Hui would have fallen for it, but he would not be caught off guard by the same tactic twice!

Watching the red bridal veil descend from the sky, Xun Hui grabbed the Ghost Bride's torn-apart body directly and sprinted rapidly toward the distance.

The red bridal veil slammed down, but the attack missed, failing to drag Xun Hui into that world. Once Xun Hui was on guard, he naturally would not be caught off guard again.

Carrying the Ghost Bride's body, Xun Hui said:

"You did teach me one lesson: hitting the heart is useless; to kill a ghost, you have to hit the head."

The red wedding dress wrapped around the female ghost's body, allowing it to be rapidly repaired regardless of the damage it sustained. But if the head were twisted off, it clearly wouldn't grow another one.

This time, Xun Hui did not give the Ghost Bride any chance, directly twisting off the Ghost Bride's neck.

That head was now held in Xun Hui's hand.

A chilling scene unfolded: the Ghost Bride's body, now without a head, was actually still moving. Within a few breaths, its body was completely repaired by the red wedding dress, and those torn wounds had already vanished.

But that body was also frantically searching for its head.

Interestingly, once the head was held in Xun Hui's hand, the red bridal veil became still. That red bridal veil would drag anyone it covered into the Ghost Bride's spirit world.

Yet with the Ghost Bride's head in his hand, the red bridal veil seemed to deliberately avoid covering Xun Hui; it was actually moving away.

At the same time, the body wearing the red wedding dress seemed to sense the head and chased frantically toward Xun Hui.

But how fast was Xun Hui? He didn't give the body any chance to retrieve its head.

As the Ghost Bride chased, Xun Hui dodged. He fled, it pursued; the scene was eerie yet comical.

Gradually, the Ghost Bride's body began to dissipate, its movements becoming increasingly slow and awkward, and its frame appearing more and more rigid.

The red wedding dress and the red bridal veil also gradually fell into silence.

Xun Hui did not let his guard down, never daring to approach the Ghost Bride's body. Not until he saw the kill count change to 4.

【You have achieved a feat no one has ever achieved before. Please head to the Guide to view the specific achievement.】

Only then did Xun Hui finally realize... the battle was over.

He looked at the head in his hand and found that it had shed that layer of eerie, deathly-white skin, turning into a skull. The Leader-level Wanderer, the Ghost Bride, was now completely dead.

Even though Xun Hui was rich in combat experience and terrifyingly strong, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

After all, he could feel the oppressive atmosphere, with monsters everywhere, after being dragged into the spirit world.

The Ghost Bride's vitality was still very strong; if its blood touched the coffin after being torn apart, some kind of change might very well have occurred.

So he kicked the coffin away while twisting off the Ghost Bride's head. Yet even so, it was still able to fight for a while longer.

"I suppose I dragged it to death."

Xun Hui let out a long breath, then realized that Wen Xishu had been kicked away along with the coffin, and immediately looked in the direction where Wen Xishu was.

At this moment, Wen Xishu was all smiles:

"Wow, so I can even reap rewards for assists when killing this kind of monster!"

It wasn't just Xun Hui who received the notification; Wen Xishu had received the same one—

【You have achieved a feat no one has ever achieved before. Please head to the Guide to view the specific achievement.】

Wen Xishu was fine, which made Xun Hui relax quite a bit. With a few leaps, he arrived at Wen Xishu's side. Wen Xishu said:

"Senior, the coffin has disappeared. Did the red wedding dress and the red bridal veil disappear too?"

Xun Hui said:

"They disappeared. These things won't remain in the Slaughter Tower World, but there might be unexpected gains at the Guide's side... I just received a notification, the first time such a notification has appeared in my Slaughter Tower career."

"Wen Xishu, you really are full of surprises!"

Wen Xishu thought to himself, if you knew that what you got wasn't just a Three Towers first kill, but also a Tower-Exit kill, you'd be even more surprised.
