One complete traversal counts as one time.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Due to the effect of the invitation letter, even if the target fails to complete the mission in the Desire Tower during the first two attempts, it will not be counted as a failure.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【The final calculation result will be based on the last traversal.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【If the three traversals are not used, they cannot be accumulated for the next tower ascent.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The explanation was quite detailed, and Wen Xishu began to think about how to use it. Three opportunities could correspond to items in at least three rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Wen Xishu felt that if he used all three, it would be too inefficient. He believed it would be best to resolve all doubts within two traversals and strive for another Level 6 completion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, returning to the bunker would be able to trigger quite a significant chemical reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When I was climbing the bookshelf just now, I touched many items and discovered that some items contained a small amount of sin aura, while others had a large amount of sin aura...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Based on this clue, if I search slowly, I can actually purify this room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I cannot assume that time is abundant; I cannot assume that just because this is the sixth floor, I can easily obtain information about the items.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And it is worth noting that when the anti-AFK detection is triggered, one will hear that greasy, disgusting prompt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That prompt, on one hand, helps me infer the development of the game's plot, and on the other hand, once a certain stage is reached, perhaps I can obtain clues.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without using the invitation letter, Wen Xishu was certain that he could absolutely find the true pollutants that needed to be purified based on some clues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no need; since the invitation letter could be used three times, he decided to use it first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, Park Yingshuang had already begun to speak about matters concerning Zheng Zai's father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director Zheng Yi, an A-level cadre of the Third Bureau of the Administration... Is he your father?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai nodded in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Park Yingshuang now assumed that Wen Xishu wanted to win over Zheng Zai, so she was also willing to curry favor with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am very sorry, but your father has already... died.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai shook his head desperately:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible, my dad clearly didn't commit a capital crime! He said he had backing...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Park Yingshuang sighed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Backing? Do you know that as long as your father was alive, his backing could never be at ease.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The bunker has Level 4 facility prisons and Level 3 architectural prisons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Among them, the Level 4 facility prisons are used to hold serious criminals and... former cadres.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prisoners in Level 4 facilities basically never get out. Therefore, what is done to the prisoners and how they are handled is actually up to the warden.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I happen to know someone in the prison department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, Park Yingshuang had slept with the warden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu looked at Zheng Zai, wanting to see how this guy would react when suddenly faced with such tragic news in his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai held his head:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It can't be... it can't be, he said it, he said he would come out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Park Yingshuang said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wish what I knew was false, but I cannot lie to you. In fact... I think it is incredible that you survived and were not implicated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your father loved you very much... he must have paid a huge price for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Park Yingshuang felt a bit unable to bear it. Regardless of whether it was feigned, she now appeared, at the very least, to be very heartbroken for Zheng Zai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bloodshot eyes gradually appeared in Zheng Zai's gaze. Those unbearable past events began to surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze, which was clear and fearful at the beginning, slowly revealed a bit of anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten years ago, the first sports center appeared in the bunker, and the bunker established the Culture and Sports Bureau.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At that time, I was thinking that perhaps if I could become an athlete, I might be able to... reduce some of the political sins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the very least, at the very least, it could allow me to obtain a fair environment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My arms are very long, so I chose the javelin throwing competition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the first year, I achieved 14th place. And the top ten were all promoted on posters and received quite a lot of supplies... and even had Desire Tower quotas allocated to them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was greatly encouraged, and I thought... perhaps if I worked hard enough and became a sensational athlete, reporters would dig into my past and find out about my father.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My father, he is really not a bad person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the second year, I was 9th place. I finally made it into the top ten, but this year, the focus of the reports was on the top six.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I only hated myself for not working hard enough, so I began to train bitterly, and in the third year, I became 4th place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, but this time, those who were highlighted and given special attention were the top three.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How I hated my own weakness. That year, I kept saying, 'Zheng Zai, if you had worked just a little harder, someone would care about Dad's situation.'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the fourth year, I got 2nd place, and the 1st place was a black man from the bunker...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And this year, only the 1st place was reported; he alone occupied all the rewards and publicity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I knew it still wasn't enough, it wasn't enough... the road to saving my father was still very long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the fifth year, with an absolute crushing posture, I took 1st place, and I broke all the records from the previous years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought, it should finally be my turn...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But it wasn't, it wasn't! It wasn't!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai began to pound the floor frantically:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These bastards just took a group photo of the athletes who had been highlighted in the past and glossed over it with a single sentence: 'This year's javelin competition was just as exciting...'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I finally understood that there is an invisible mountain in this world specifically blocking the children of criminals like me. Every step I climb up, the mountain rises two steps.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When I had worked hard for five years and thought I could finally see the light... I realized that everything at the top was even darker.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu actually didn't care much about the suffering of others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was inexplicably moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he kept exploring the Strange Tower, would he eventually end up with the same fate?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bunker Security Bureau would not be grateful to him; Wen Xishu actually knew this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps one day, after his value and secrets had been squeezed dry, the Bunker Security Bureau would discard him like a worn-out tool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was even very clear that this was not a \"perhaps,\" it was an inevitability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Wen Zhaohua's sins were far greater than the sins of Zheng Zai's father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I am not reconciled. I am still working hard, I started ascending the tower, I thought as long as I could bring back enough supplies, I could be remembered by the bunker.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The appearance of Wen Xishu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai glanced at Wen Xishu; he still believed in Wen Xishu, believing that the Wen Xishu before him just happened to have the same name as that bunker legend, Wen Xishu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I mean, that Wen Xishu who saved countless people in the bunker gave me hope.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought... I should go explore the Strange Tower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bloodstains had already appeared on Zheng Zai's fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have... I have even reached the point where I can give up my life. In the process of my last exploration of the Strange Tower, I even contracted a strange disease.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I became neither human nor ghost, bloodthirsty and irritable. In the bunker, I was afraid my bloodthirsty desires would surface, so I blocked my mouth with an iron mask. I have already paid so much!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Zai raised his head, his eyes full of rage and ferocity:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But why! Why did he still die? What is the meaning of everything I have done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there still fairness and justice in this bunker?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu saw the flames of destruction. It was a kind of madness that seemed to want to destroy the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could imagine that if Jack's mother had died back then, Jack would also have constantly questioned why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one would respond to his questioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu liked this kind of look very much; he suddenly decided to keep Zheng Zai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how well he had treated Zheng Zai before, Wen Xishu had thought about killing him in the end if necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he could not bear any risk of exposing his secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Wen Xishu changed his mind; he saw the barrage that only he could see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a dense barrage, a true extreme of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【I want revenge! I want revenge! I want revenge!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A series of dense barrages passed through Wen Xishu's line of sight like a thousand troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu had to admit, if Zheng Zai were not a bunker person, but a Three-Tower person...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Presumably, this experience would have made him a Tower-Slaughtering boss-level player, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing about Zheng Zai's past, Wen Xishu no longer delayed; he activated the invitation letter, preparing to head to the Desire Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you later, you two,\" Wen Xishu thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, time suddenly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Park Yingshuang and Zheng Zai, who were still talking, were both frozen by the eerie energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1661,"2026-06-20T04:46:41.185Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","cdf0efce839494c7a5e597f5c34b428fa2aee5172923cd1a0a98ea9d3fee83db","the-three-towers-game-chapter-47","the-three-towers-game-chapter-45",281,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-three-towers-game-cover.jpg"]
