Chapter 116: Savior Game
Enemies are like cockroaches; when you see one on the surface, there might be a hundred in the dark.
The Gongben family behind Gongben Miyamoto Yishu is naturally awesome, but it doesn't mean only the Gongben family can do some things.
It's just that people from some families are still watching.
Wen Xishu pondered that the Mysterious Tower Assault Team was the general trend. If he could get along well with the people of the Mysterious Tower Assault Team, he would have an extra layer of protection.
"Must find a way to take down the Mysterious Tower Academy quickly, take back my name at the fastest speed, and let those who have a grudge against Wen Zhaohua become people who dare not provoke me before they react and before they are sure who I am."
Thinking this through, Wen Xishu felt he must climb the tower faster.
He soon arrived at the principal's office; the principal and Jia Baer were not there, but Wen Xishu had a feeling—once he returned to the principal's office, Jia Baer would definitely be nearby and would hand over a hot towel.
He still quite enjoyed that moment, so the speed of operating the login device was faster.
"Tower God! Activate!"
【Welcome to the Three Towers game, about to enter the rest area.】
【Based on your challenge in normal order, you achieved a level six completion on the sixth floor; current maximum level accessible: 16. The fluctuation value is 9 to 16. But you can also go to the Three Towers guide and choose Three Towers level descent (for detailed rules, please consult the Three Towers guide.)】
【Detected special item "Crazy Dice." Do you want to roll?】
Wen Xishu hoped that the points this time could be interesting. But the result of the roll was a very bad number for superstitious people.
Three fours.
"The good news is, a leopard has come; the bad news is, this leopard seems a bit evil."
【Please choose one from the following effects.】
【1: Three Highs. (Tower climbing level x3, can be triggered when the points of the three dice are the same.)】
【2: Power of Three Phases. (Can use the abilities and rules of three tower systems simultaneously, can be triggered when the points of the three dice are the same.)】
【3: Good Things Come in Pairs. (Triggered when at least two of the three dice points are even. Effect: Option +1. And this option does not consume option counts.)】
【4: Not Alone. Triggered only when there are even numbers; when the number of teammates is even, after he obtains a reward, you can also obtain an extra reward identical to his reward (if the other party obtains a unique sequence, the sequence will be stripped by you.)】
【5: Tendency for Large Numbers. Triggered when the total points are greater than nine. (Effect is that the trigger probability of all probability events increases. Regardless of bad luck or good luck.)】
【6: Evil of Four. Triggered when all points are four. (Effect is that when your team size is a multiple of four, and in this process, a teammate dies, you have a very high probability of receiving the teammate's Three Towers assets, and vice versa. Note: If this option is selected, you will inevitably be assigned to a team-type challenge. And you will be assigned the role with the highest initial mortality rate.)】
The newly appeared option is the sixth one, which is indeed an extremely evil option.
The "Not Alone" option is very suitable for being with friends, while "Evil of Four" is more suitable for being with people you don't like.
Wen Xishu actually quite wanted to choose it.
But this posed two problems; first, could there be three teammates with him?
The game requires a team size of four, which naturally includes himself. Then as long as three people are together... hmm, these three people are in danger.
"Judging from the note options, as long as I choose it, it will change my challenge content to one suitable for team challenges."
"But there is a problem here: will there be a situation where the content is changed to a team challenge, and as a result, there is no one in the Mysterious Tower rest area who is in the same challenge as me... leading me to enter a team dungeon alone?"
"In addition, it is worth mentioning that it only requires the teammate to die; it doesn't require the teammate to be killed by me... so choosing this option, the point I need to consider is not at the moral level, but based on past experience, how high is the probability of all teammates surviving?"
After the last sentence, Wen Xishu quickly reached a conclusion.
So far, the people who have teamed up with him, only the Xishu Divine Sect has survived completely.
In other challenges, people would die.
Time was running out for Wen Xishu.
As long as there is "Good Things Come in Pairs," he can change from six choose one to five choose two.
Nowadays, Wen Xishu already has his own way of choosing—
If there is Three Phases, choose Three Phases without thinking; if there is no Three Phases, choose the second-stage connection. Being able to use the rules of other tower systems in one tower is the core of the core.
So Wen Xishu chose Three Phases for his first option.
For his second choice, after much hesitation, he chose the new option: Evil of Four.
Mysterious Tower, rest area.
"All brothers, look at me! No matter which area you are in, come over first; my name is Zhou Yan, from the Sixth Bureau of the Bunker Security Bureau, formerly 195th on the Slaughter Tower ladder."
"Also, my name is He Shoucheng, from the Sixth Bureau of the Bunker Security Bureau, formerly 170th on the Slaughter Tower ladder."
When Wen Xishu appeared in the Mysterious Tower rest area, the first content he heard was the shouting of two Bunker people from the Slaughter Tower ladder.
This made him feel it was somewhat interesting.
"It's like this, no matter what identity you had before, coming to explore the Mysterious Tower, as long as you return successfully, you may obtain a clean new identity or change your status."
"Recently, everyone also knows about Wen Xishu, who is constantly exploring the Mysterious Tower."
"I hope everyone has the same luck as Wen Xishu. Here, what I want to tell everyone is that our Security Bureau Sixth Bureau will establish a Mysterious Tower Assault Team."
"Shoucheng and I are the pioneers. I hope everyone who has Mysterious Tower experience can communicate with us in the rest area to minimize the mortality rate of Mysterious Tower exploration."
"Of course, Shoucheng and I will also explore the Mysterious Tower; after all, both of us appeared in the rest area. What I can guarantee to everyone is that if everyone is willing to cooperate with us, after returning to the Bunker in the future, you can join the assault team at any time!"
"We will report every person who contributes intelligence for free in the rest area to the management. Of course, if Shoucheng and I die in the Mysterious Tower, don't be afraid, everyone; if I and Shoucheng die, there are others! As long as we are united enough, we will inevitably be able to conquer the Mysterious Tower!"
"Everyone, this is an opportunity; perhaps we will all die in the Mysterious Tower. But our experience will allow our next generation to live very well."
Zhou Yan had said these words several times, and indeed many people had gathered beside Zhou Yan.
Among them were many who had Mysterious Tower experience.
Wen Xishu was actually quite surprised.
After all, his impression of the Security Bureau wasn't very good. But this Zhou Yan and He Shoucheng were truly putting themselves into the game.
Especially that sentence about letting the next generation live well, it indeed made Wen Xishu admire them a bit.
The Mysterious Tower is a game, but also not a game. In a real game, the strategy group is at most just tired, and their strategies are given to players, who will get the players' thanks, but that's all.
But in the Mysterious Tower, the strategy group will die.
Wen Xishu really felt the general trend. A general trend of exploring the Mysterious Tower that was difficult to block.
"Even people on the ladder are putting themselves into the game; it seems Albert has really shifted the strategic focus."
"The exploration of the Mysterious Tower has begun to pile up in quantity, while the exploration of the Slaughter Tower has begun to take the elite route..."
"This is actually beneficial to someone like me."
Wen Xishu didn't go to Zhou Yan and He Shoucheng's side to recount some strategies.
His strategies had already been written in the tower climbing report.
He discovered that he was at the center position, which meant that among everyone, his exploration level was the highest.
Around him—there were no teammates.
Wen Xishu sighed:
"This time I was really pitted by the Crazy Dice."
Without teammates, it was naturally impossible to trigger the situation of obtaining Three Towers attributes from teammate deaths.
And he had to challenge the team-mode Mysterious Tower game as a solo person. He had a feeling that the mortality rate was skyrocketing instantly.
"Forget it, let's interpret the task first."
The span of this challenge level was slightly large, fifteen floors. This was also the reason why there were no teammates around Wen Xishu.
And the task description was like this.
【Do you have a dream? Have you fantasized about turning the tide and saving everything in the apocalypse? Welcome to the Apocalypse Savior Plan.】
【Here, you will truly feel the weight of your dreams, and all your actions will make value judgments for your dreams.】
【Please use your teammates reasonably, or... do you feel you are very rich and don't need teammates? Then you can enjoy the game's mechanics to your heart's content.】
【The apocalypse has arrived; you need to lead the people you want to protect to survive in several levels, and their survival is crucial.】
【The strength of the monsters will definitely become more and more outrageous, but don't worry~ you have many ways to become stronger, as long as you are willing to quantify everything.】
【Please remember, in the apocalypse, everything is an asset, but some things are not everything.】
【We look forward to seeing you survive in the apocalypse, or you can make a more amazing performance. Or, you are just a pathetic poor person.】
Another paragraph very worthy of interpretation; Wen Xishu's first reaction was that this content seemed to overemphasize the word "asset."
Pathetic poor person?
This remark really offended Wen Xishu... or rather, the Wen Xishu of his previous life.
But this was clearly not a mocking remark full of superiority aimed at the general public.
"Please use your teammates reasonably... sorry, I don't have teammates."
Wen Xishu really felt pitted by the Crazy Dice.
But just at this moment, things took an interesting turn.
"Hey, I'm screwed; this is my first time in the Mysterious Tower! I was clearly in the second-floor eerie chess game, how did it suddenly adjust me to the fifteenth floor! What the hell is going on with the Mysterious Tower!"
A person at the edge of the rest area suddenly shouted loudly.
Wen Xishu actually didn't hear it at first, after all, it was too far away.
But then, several people made similar complaints.
"Ghost, ghost, I was going to the so-called Jicheng Apartment on the seventh floor, how did it become the fifteenth floor now? What the hell, how did it become an apocalypse savior."
"Ah ah ah ah ah, my maximum level was seven, how did it become fifteen?"
"I, I must be hallucinating from hunger."
"Fifteenth floor? I didn't expect that I would change from the first floor to the fifteenth floor, heh, interesting, Mysterious Tower, is this your way of attracting my attention? Very good, you have successfully attracted my attention."
There was even a domineering CEO-style complaint.
Various voices gradually came, and finally reached Wen Xishu's ears. He suddenly realized... oh no, he was afraid he was going to provoke public anger.
Because the only person who stood at the fifteenth-floor position from the beginning was him.
This was likely to lead others to associate this temporary level change with him.
Wen Xishu was actually very confused too.
He really couldn't imagine that the effect of the Crazy Dice was so terrifying.
But thinking about it carefully, it was also true. The purple Comrade Bracers could team up, and this "Three Highs" option could change levels...
Presumably, three fours, which were rarer than ordinary leopards, changing other people's levels wasn't any particularly outrageous thing.
Wen Xishu noticed that there were seven people walking toward him.
He could now be sure that this "Evil of Four" option was something that would give you teammates even if you didn't have them.
Regarding this, Wen Xishu was actually quite sympathetic to these people.
He quickly thought of a coping strategy: pretend to be a victim.
"You... you are also on the fifteenth floor? You were here from the beginning; our levels became fifteen, don't tell me you played a trick?"
The person pointing at Wen Xishu had a very good-looking physique, comparable to a fitness coach.
Wen Xishu said:
"I am on the sixteenth floor. I don't know why, but I was lowered to the fifteenth floor just now."
"How strange, among you people, is there anyone who was originally on the fifteenth floor?"
If a villain doesn't complain first, it means they aren't evil enough.
Wen Xishu's gaze at this time was very unfriendly.
The muscular man, upon hearing that Wen Xishu was originally going to the sixteenth floor, immediately softened his attitude.
"What's going on... how did we come to the fifteenth floor?"
The muscular man scratched his head.
Wen Xishu said:
"My previous task was to go to a house with ridiculously low rent and play hide-and-seek with others."
"Now it suddenly became some apocalypse savior... what about you? Wouldn't it all be the same?"
Wen Xishu's expression was natural and in place. In a sense, he felt he had pitted these people.
But then again, from the moment they arrived at the Mysterious Tower rest area, they had made the decision to gamble with their lives.
In the process of exploring the Mysterious Tower, having moral baggage was stupid in itself. And he didn't know that the effect of the Crazy Dice was so terrifying.
"My name is Wen Xun, a student of the Three Towers Academy; what about you? What's the situation?"
The muscular man said:
"My name is Zhang Hai, a fitness coach at a gym on the fourth floor. The task I received was also this apocalypse savior task."
"Good fellow, you are really a student of the Three Towers Academy? How could a student of the Three Towers Academy mix in the Mysterious Tower."
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Don't you know? The Mysterious Tower assault is about to be established, and our school has a new school rule: credits for exploring the Mysterious Tower are double that of the Slaughter Tower."
The expression on Zhang Hai's face immediately became much friendlier. A student of the Three Towers Academy, sixteenth floor of the Mysterious Tower...
This student must not be simple; must make friends.
The second teammate was an old man, about fifty years old:
"Hey, this is my first time in the Mysterious Tower; how did I get into such a thing? My name is Tokugawa Dahe, and I am a teacher."
Zhang Hai laughed:
"From the Three Towers Academy?"
Tokugawa Dahe shook his head:
"No... just a teacher at an ordinary school on the second floor. Teaching little kids."
Tokugawa Dahe was fifty years old. Wen Xishu knew as soon as he heard the name that it belonged to the same lineage as Gongben Miyamoto Yishu.
He didn't hate it, but he always felt that this old man looked very depressed.
Wen Xishu's third teammate said:
"Name? I have long forgotten. But they all call me Wolf-Faced Child. You can call me Ah Lang. I am a very easygoing person, but if you touch my reverse scale, I will let you know what true darkness is. Don't look at my surface innocence; in fact, I am smooth and transparent. You can't calculate me. Don't provoke me in the next task."
Ah Lang crossed his hands and placed them under his nose, sitting on the ground in a deep, thoughtful posture.
This was a teenager who looked about the same age as Wen Xishu but had a non-mainstream hairstyle.
Very good, a middle-school-syndrome abstract pretentious player. Hmm, looks like someone from a mental hospital. That place really has many talents.
But Wen Xishu felt that having fun was a good thing; this guy was better than Tong Ming.
The fourth teammate said:
"My name is Kate, and I'm a porter. It seems we are all on the same task; take care of each other."
Kate was relatively thin, but his arms were very long. His hands were also very large; in this situation, Kate looked relatively deformed.
His big hands were suitable for porter work.
Wen Xishu couldn't help but ask:
"Everyone... why come to the Mysterious Tower? Kate, your main job should be done quite well, and Coach Zhang, your muscles must also be the sign of the gym."
"And Teacher Tokugawa, since you are a teacher, you shouldn't have to mix in the Mysterious Tower, right."
Wen Xishu really felt that it was unreasonable for these people to come to explore the Mysterious Tower.
Unlike Amiao and Zheng Zai, these people, by rights, shouldn't have been forced to the edge of life.
The one who answered this question was Zhang Hai:
"Isn't this responding to the Bunker's policy? And the work at the gym is not easy to do; our coaching team's performance pressure is also high."
"Now the policy is good for exploring the Mysterious Tower, so I came."
Kate nodded:
"About the same, I don't want to be a porter for a lifetime either."
Wen Xishu asked:
"You don't know... that the Mysterious Tower is about gambling with your life?"
At this time, Tokugawa Dahe said with some depression:
"Of course I know, but the money is good... look at the people who came, are there any rich kids? Reducing wages for non-tower-climbing professions, increasing the retirement age for non-tower-climbing professions, increasing the benefits of tower climbing—what can we do?"
"Since ancient times, those who enjoy happiness are always those who enjoy happiness; besides us ordinary people and soldiers, who else supports and responds to these policies? These policies are forcing people like us, aren't they?"
"I'm fighting for a good job for my child in the future."
This is very Bunker.
Wen Xishu couldn't evaluate much, but at this time, the fifth teammate complained:
"What words, what words, what do you mean those who enjoy happiness are always those who enjoy happiness? Doesn't this young master also come to the Mysterious Tower to prove himself? Heh, I will let you see what an excellent person is, excellent everywhere."
The man in a double-breasted suit with a slicked-back hairstyle said in a very confident tone.
"Self-introduction, my name is Ye Lingfeng; I have some assets, and I have some industries on the sixth floor. I consider myself, although not comparable to the six major families, definitely not falling behind in financial resources. And I am the holder of the Ye Group."
Ye Lingfeng almost hooked Wen Xishu's desire to complain.
First of all, it is difficult to have experiences similar to some of the richest people in the previous life in the Bunker, and secondly...
Wen Xishu discovered that Ye Lingfeng's hands were very rough.
This was not the hand a big tycoon should have; although Ye Lingfeng looked handsome, he didn't have the temperament of being pampered. The arrogance he performed was a bit too forced.
And... that suit felt very cheap. Wen Xishu didn't expose it; men are outside, and their identities are given by themselves.
Ye Lingfeng continued:
"In my second year of high school, I had already achieved financial freedom, relying on the one million merit points given by my family to establish my own business empire. Now my life has not many things that can make me happy."
"I think it's time to conquer the Three Towers."
Wen Xishu couldn't help but want to applaud.
To be honest, whether it was the Wolf-Faced Child just now or this Ye Lingfeng, Wen Xishu didn't hate them. After all, teaming up with such people is quite happy.
Living in one's own mental world is also a kind of happiness, or rather, a kind of means of finding joy in suffering.
The sixth teammate was a blind person:
"I'm blind, I don't want to live anymore. You can call me Blind Man."
No extra introduction.
Wen Xishu learned about a past like this when he was cramming Bunker history.
It is said that the once oppressive life at the bottom of the Bunker caused a wave of "self-destruction."
A cult once appeared, inciting all disabled people to self-destruct.
And the way of destruction was to head to the Mysterious Tower.
The blind man wore sunglasses, his face had no joy or sorrow, and he had a sense of despair.
Usually, such people have stories, but Wen Xishu didn't care about other people's stories.
The seventh teammate, and also the last teammate, was a regular visitor to the Mysterious Tower—a prisoner.
"You should know my identity from this prison uniform. My name is Tam; you'd better not drag me down in this task."
Seven people, counting Wen Xishu, exactly eight people.
Wen Xishu now felt that this exploration should be very interesting.
He asked according to convention:
"Regarding this task, what are your opinions?"
Ye Lingfeng said:
"You can speak freely; if your guess is correct, after entering the Mysterious Tower, you will get the rewards you deserve."
The Wolf-Faced Child was still deeply silent:
"No matter what kind of task, no matter what changes, they are all in my calculations, but why should I tell you?"
These two living treasures must survive, Wen Xishu thought.
Kate said:
"I don't know, I can't read this task; are we playing the savior?"
Wen Xishu said:
"This task forces us, who are not at the same level of the Mysterious Tower, to gather in the same level and the same area, which shows that this task is a team task."
"What we play should be a team, but I don't know how to operate it specifically. It is worth noting that it mentions assets, quantification..."
"I think, perhaps we can get help by trading some things on us during this task."
"But I always feel that this task seems to indicate that this approach is actually not quite right? I can't say."
Among this group of people, there was no type that Wen Xishu particularly hated, so Wen Xishu didn't think about killing them.
Although he had "Evil of Four," Wen Xishu would still tell them some views. Because team tasks inevitably have level designs that require cooperation to pass.
"There are eight of us in total; has anyone mixed in the Tower of Desire? Does anyone know if there are similar tasks on the fifteenth floor of the Tower of Desire?" Wen Xishu asked.
But everyone shook their heads in unison.
Wen Xishu said:
"Since that's the case, let's enter the Mysterious Tower. This task introduction has a lot of space for interpretation, but it is also difficult to determine what it is talking about. Let's enter the game and see."
Tam said:
"Don't give me orders."
Wen Xishu shrugged:
"Then how dare I."
Zhang Hai was very polite:
"Everyone, see you in the Mysterious Tower."
Everyone activated their login devices, and Wen Xishu was also very curious about how to choose the so-called savior among eight people.
【Welcome to the Apocalypse Game.】
【Do you crave to feel the most real apocalypse? Loading your personal data, we will judge whether you can open hidden options based on your experience.】
【Please choose your profession.】
The sudden prompt made Wen Xishu a bit confused. He thought he had traveled to another world.
But soon, he received the third prompt, which made him realize he was still in the Three Towers world.
【The orange item Scorpio's Cheat Knife you hold will provide you with the following functions throughout this tower climbing process:】
【Function Name: Special Combat Mode Switching】
【Function Description: As everyone knows, fighting in the game world,
"The old saying goes well, exercise must include legs; if you don't train legs in fitness, you will be impotent later. Now, there is a good sequence that can allow you to train your legs to the human limit."
"It just happened to be obtained by me, Slaughter Sequence 199—Extreme Kick."
"Do you think, if I use Extreme Kick to exchange for your Extreme Punch... how about it?"
Xun Hui snorted, unable to hold back his laughter.
This kid really dropped a sequence this time, and it happened to be such a "fated" sequence.
Albert also laughed loudly:
"This is truly a deal that makes me tempted, but sorry, sorry, I am too old; I don't have that long a lifespan to train my legs to that extent, and impotence doesn't seem to count for much at my age. Hahahahahaha, but I am very happy to see you be able to develop Extreme Kick to the level it should have."
"I will try to collect and see if there are any runes suitable for you."
Very good, the trade failed.
Wen Xishu also knew that trading like this wasn't authentic, but he had to try; what if the old man wanted to change his taste.
Subsequently, Wen Xishu said:
"Alright, Principal, one last question: do you think the Slaughter Tower's highest... is one hundred floors?"
Albert didn't hesitate and shook his head directly:
"I'm not sure; I personally think there are higher levels, but my partner thinks that once the one-hundredth floor is broken through, humanity will head to the real world."
Everyone became serious.
For them, today they had contacted the most ultimate powerhouse, and now this powerhouse was also talking about some of the most ultimate topics.
Wen Xishu asked:
"So... you two had a disagreement? Do you think that your partner and you together could break through the one-hundredth floor?"
Albert nodded:
"He is a very excellent teammate; I miss the days when I opened up territory with him. Joining hands with him, everything could be done."
"But because of different philosophies, he refuses to help me break through the one-hundredth floor. If he were here, I would be confident that we could kill any boss or master in the current version together."
A look of nostalgia appeared on Albert's face, but it flashed by; he laughed loudly again:
"However, the timeline has been pushed; maybe there are new sandbags appearing. I think I can have new fun and not force him for now."
"When I finish exploring the new content, perhaps he should also consider it clearly."
Wen Xishu guessed that this partner should be Xiao Jin's grandfather. And not long ago... Xun Hui killing the Third Bureau Chief, besides helping himself and pushing for the establishment of the Mysterious Tower Assault Team, was likely also a test of an old friend.
This conversation didn't last long; after asking what should be asked, Albert and Wen Xishu tacitly interrupted the conversation.
Albert still had to talk to the Second Bureau Chief of the Security Bureau, and Wen Xishu also planned to start the sixth tower climb after resting.
So this conversation ended, and Xiao Jin, Wen Xishu, and the others returned to the dormitory. Xun Hui returned to the Xun family to deal with some messes.
After returning to the dormitory, Yue Yun said:
"Wen Xun... you have already explored the Mysterious Tower several times, right?"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Yes, several times."
Yue Yun said again:
"So, the reason you can see those words at the top of the library is because you went to the Mysterious Tower... and Nisen and I couldn't interpret the words in the shadows because our anti-magic value wasn't enough?"
Wen Xishu didn't expect the King of Posing to have such associated abilities.
"It's like this, please keep it a secret."
Yue Yun said seriously:
"Don't worry, I'm quite willing to keep it a secret; now the matter of Senior Xun taking us to the Slaughter Tower is known to the whole academy."
"Everyone definitely won't suspect that you are actually climbing the Mysterious Tower, not the Slaughter Tower. And the academy's new rule recently, double credits for the Mysterious Tower..."
"I'm thinking, your credits must have already left Gongben Miyamoto Yishu far behind."
Wen Xishu also responded seriously:
"He has never been my imaginary enemy, nor should he be your imaginary enemy."
Yue Yun understood the meaning of these words:
"Thank you, I know. From now on, my goal is Senior Xun Hui. By the way, will you go to the top of the library to see tonight?"
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"I plan to wait until my anti-magic value breaks through to 50 before going to see, so as not to have only a little content every time."
Yue Yun actually wanted to ask if he was also related to Wen Xishu. But he felt this was a bit offensive, so he changed the question:
"Then, what do you plan to do next?"
Wen Xishu said:
"I am preparing to go to the storage area next, adjust my items, and then head to the Mysterious Tower."
Nisen suddenly spoke, in a questioning tone:
"Bro, the 'next' you mentioned refers to tomorrow, right? Not now, right?"
Wen Xishu said:
"Is it possible we have something we must do right now? I'm just going back to the dormitory to change clothes and take a shower, and then I'm ready to go to the storage area. Life shouldn't be wasted in the Bunker; tower climbing is so much fun."
Nisen:...
Xiao Jin:...
Yue Yun:...
The three felt a sense of powerlessness.
Yue Yun suddenly felt that theoretical knowledge didn't seem so important anymore. Xiao Jin suddenly felt that he was too slack. Nisen also felt that the bed didn't seem so attractive to him anymore.
Wen Xishu hummed the tune from his previous life, "Clock in Reverse," and started taking a shower. Not long after, he came out of the bathroom and changed into clean clothes.
Then he was really ready to leave.
"It's really convenient after speaking out; I was always hiding from you before, but now it's quite good. I don't need to hide. Brothers, chat again when I come back. I'm going to climb the tower next."
Wen Xishu left after saying this.
And at this very moment, less than two hours had passed since Wen Xishu, Yue Yun, and the others returned from the 52nd floor of the Slaughter Tower.
"He... how does he give me the feeling that he is going to live in the Three Towers? Wow, Brother Wen is really hitting people hard." Xiao Jin was really scared this time.
After Yue Yun was silent for a while, he spoke:
"Nisen, do you want to climb the tower now?"
Nisen actually wanted to say... I want to lie down for a while, bro; after all, I've been warming by the fire in the Slaughter Tower world for three days.
But thinking of Wen Xun's tower climbing speed, he nodded:
"If the days Wen disappeared before were all climbing the tower... then the time he returns each time has become shorter and shorter. This means his frequency of climbing the tower is getting faster and faster."
"Before, he would at least rest for a day... this time he actually, actually just came back to chat for a few words, took a shower, and left. He's like coming back to sign in. God, Xiao Yun, I really want to rest, but he makes me feel that resting is shameful."
Yue Yun thought the same. Wen Xun's tower climbing frequency was getting shorter and shorter. At this speed, he was really worried that one day Wen Xun wouldn't appear in the Bunker at all.
However, Yue Yun also noticed the results of Wen Xun's hard work.
"Perhaps only such a person can be so favored by existences at the level of the Old Principal and Senior Xun. Wen Xun's talent is stronger than mine, I admit it, but he is even more diligent and desperate than us in climbing the tower. If I can accept this, I will really become a clown who only knows how to talk."
"Xiao Jin, can you lend the Comrade Bracers to me and Nisen again?"
Xiao Jin naturally heard the conversation between the two. Really terrible; the dormitory of the talented monster and the roll king makes people feel that just staying in the dormitory is a sin.
Clearly, before coming here, he was also a genius. But now, Xiao Jin only felt that he was so ordinary.
He nodded:
"Wow, Brother Yun, Brother Nisen, take me with you too."
Yue Yun shook his head:
"I don't want to warm by the fire boringly anymore, Xiao Jin; your talent is better than mine and Nisen's, and your level is also higher than mine and Nisen's. If we are with you, maybe we are also being taken care of. Sorry, lying back and winning is a torture for someone like me."
Xiao Jin nodded aggrievedly:
"Okay, okay, are you leaving me alone to climb the tower? Too lonely, but I'll give you the Comrade Bracers."
Xiao Jin's generosity made Nisen and Yue Yun a bit surprised; what kind of family background is this, giving away purple items directly.
Yue Yun silently remembered this favor. He was this kind of person; even if what others gave was insignificant to them, as long as it was useful to him, it was absolutely worth being grateful for.
And if he felt it was valuable, he would definitely have to repay it in the future.
Yue Yun and Nisen soon left the dormitory.
Xiao Jin was a bit lonely alone in the dormitory. But now, he really felt that his grandfather was right to let him come here.
Everyone here is worth learning from.
Storage locker area.
Wen Xishu came to the storage area, not thinking about what to bring.
All of this had to be decided according to his dice points and tasks.
Currently, Wen Xishu's resident items were only the Phoenix Gloves, the Scorpio Knife, and the Pseudo-Fate Compass.
Other items had to be arranged according to specific circumstances. However, Wen Xishu came to the storage area this time mainly to store that drop of black blood.
The Black Coffin Blood came from over fifty floors and from a monster that had half a foot stepped into the level of a Red House.
And it had side effects and was a consumable. With all kinds of buffs stacked together, Wen Xishu felt like he was holding a nuclear bomb in his hand.
Wen Xishu felt that this thing should be used for level seven tasks, the kind that could help him turn the tables at a critical moment.
He had to store it well.
After settling the Black Coffin Blood, Wen Xishu prepared to head to the principal's office.
On the way to the principal's office, Wen Xishu saw that academy genius who Yue Yun and Nisen were very concerned about, Gongben Miyamoto Yishu.
This was outside the Material Department; when Wen Xishu was walking toward the principal's office, Gongben Miyamoto Yishu's gaze was like a sharp sword, staring straight at Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu politely returned a smile.
He originally thought it would end like this, but just as the two brushed past each other, Gongben Miyamoto Yishu suddenly whispered:
"Wen Xishu, do you want to know what Wen Zhaohua actually did?"
Wen Xishu looked blank, looked at Gongben Miyamoto Yishu with some confusion, and then continued to walk forward.
His reaction was the same as someone who was suddenly spoken to by a stranger, and the content of the conversation was illogical.
Gongben Miyamoto Yishu said again:
"Other seniors didn't find you because they didn't even know you existed."
"But our Gongben family is one of the six major families; Wen Xishu, you can play dumb, but the Gongben family will not let go of what Wen Zhaohua did!"
Only then did Wen Xishu turn his head, continuing to say with a somewhat confused expression:
"Classmate? You are Classmate Gongben, right? Were your words just now directed at me?"
"I feel you must have mistaken me for someone else; sorry, I'll go first."
Wen Xishu really left after saying this, as if he were completely uninterested in what Wen Zhaohua had done.
Gongben Miyamoto Yishu was actually a bit uncertain inside. Seeing Wen Xun's reaction, he felt even less confident inside. Could it be that this person really wasn't Wen Xishu?
The matter of Xun Hui taking Wen Xishu, Nisen, and others to the Slaughter Tower gave Gongben Miyamoto Yishu no small shock.
As one of the six major families, the Gongben family, which was on par with the Xun family, naturally wouldn't ignore potential opponents.
They would absolutely not ignore someone who could let Xun Hui accompany them for training.
