Chapter 55: Wen Xishu with the Heavenly Eye

~14 min read 2,687 words

Wen Xishu spoke unhurriedly.

Park Meixi said urgently:

"You speak! I will definitely listen to you!"

Wen Xishu said:

"Zheng Zai, remember, in the future, when exploring the Tower of Mystery, master a rule: no matter what sound appears, don't be afraid."

"The content in the sound or prompt is the key to our clearing the level, understand?"

Wen Xishu ignored Park Meixi's words and instead began to teach Zheng Zai some insights.

Zheng Zai nodded.

Park Meixi was really scared, and she was creeped out by these eyes.

These eyes were everywhere, some appeared on the walls, some appeared in mid-air, and she could even see sticky eyeball fluid.

Densely packed, nowhere to hide.

But at this time, Wen Xishu was actually teaching Zheng Zai unhurriedly. But Park Meixi didn't dare to say anything.

Wen Xishu's logic is actually very simple: there are too many eyes, you can't hide, and if you attack the eyes, there is no effective means. Maybe it will trigger other blood-dropping mechanisms.

This shows that at this time, you only need to follow the prompt. The prompt is to record the bad things done.

Although the sentence "in school" was added, this requirement should not be aimed at bunker players.

This is just a clue, implying that the girl's behavior in school was all recorded.

The facts are indeed so.

Wen Xishu remembered that Tang Rui said that she recorded everything in her diary.

Parents also knew that Tang Rui neglected her studies in school and learned music through the diary.

Of course, they also knew the pain Tang Rui had truly experienced.

"The props were distributed to us, which means there must be a chance to use them. We have more paper and pens than the last scene, just to follow the prompt and write down the bad things we have done."

"Now, write."

Park Meixi asked:

"After writing... will it be okay after writing? The prompt also said to record good things, are good things not okay?"

Wen Xishu shook his head:

"You write first."

Zheng Zai was much more down-to-earth. Whatever Wen Xishu said, he did. Zheng Zai doesn't look smart, but this performance is the performance of a truly smart person.

On the contrary, Park Meixi's every doubt at this time is self-defeating and stupid.

All three began to record the bad things they had done.

To say bad things, Zheng Zai really didn't do many. He thought for a long while before writing down the pranks from his childhood.

But Park Meixi next door actually did quite a few, but she was skeptical. If she really wrote them down, would she be punished?

Wen Xishu wrote furiously. He didn't need to think at all. He had done too many bad things.

Inducing a little girl to leave her mother and live with a fired employee from the circus, beating up a suspected doctor, teasing and mocking the interrogator, if the behaviors of the Crazy Dice were counted...

Then Wen Xishu had done everything, killing, arson, gambling. So Wen Xishu wrote very fast, and it could be said that his thoughts were flowing.

Park Meixi finally wrote down a bad thing she had done. She once tried to improve her status by getting pregnant, and after finishing with a high-ranking official, she went to rummage through the trash can containing a certain liquid.

After all three finished recording...

These eyes floating in the air, or growing from the floor and walls, began to close slowly. After closing completely, they turned into black smoke and disappeared.

However, Park Meixi couldn't be happy...

Because an eye-pattern symbol appeared on the heads of all three.

This symbol presented eight parts blue and two parts red.

It was like an identifier floating on the head, reminding Wen Xishu of those NPCs with exclamation marks on their heads in online games.

"This... what is this ghost thing... why do I feel my movements have slowed down? My body seems to have become heavier!"

Park Meixi looked at Wen Xishu again, and Wen Xishu frowned in disgust:

"Don't be surprised, is it possible that Zheng Zai and I don't have this thing on our heads? Is it possible that only you are special?"

Park Meixi stopped talking immediately.

She actually didn't have that stupidity in the past, but many people can disguise themselves in a normal environment and look extremely elegant and calm in a comfortable environment...

But once they reach an extremely dangerous environment, they are in a different state.

Wen Xishu said:

"Zheng Zai, remember, we are bunker people. The place we came to is a game scene called the Three Towers game."

"Since it's a game, treat yourself as a player and understand more game mechanisms."

Zheng Zai was half-understanding:

"But... our bunker, we haven't played much games..."

Wen Xishu was slightly startled. Thinking about it carefully, it seems to be true.

Before the Wen family had an accident, they were also a big family, and they also came into contact with many upper-class celebrities...

There are also many people with good family backgrounds in the Tower of Desire Academy. But in his impression, it seems that no one plays games.

Wen Xishu suddenly felt that this seemed to be a good thing for him.

"It doesn't matter, I will change to a way you can understand later. Now I will talk about what we have encountered."

Zheng Zai put on a posture of being taught with an open mind, and Park Meixi also immediately became serious.

Wen Xishu said:

"Eyes mean surveillance, meaning a perverted desire for control over children."

"Eyes are everywhere, meaning the real owner of this room has no privacy."

"We, and even every bad thing she has done, will be known by the owner of the eyes, that is, her parents. The reason it is a bad thing is because only bad things are worth peeping at."

"The red eyes appearing on our heads, you can understand as... control value."

"The higher the control value, the less free we are. The manifestation of lack of freedom is that in life, you will be managed no matter what you do."

"But in the Tower of Mystery, it becomes that no matter what you do, it is difficult to complete the behavior, and the ability to control your body decreases, as if it has become extremely clumsy."

"From the eye identifier, the red accumulation will be more and more, and we will become more and more difficult to control our bodies."

Zheng Zai and Park Meixi were both startled. Zheng Zai was marveling at Wen Xishu's analytical ability.

This is simply the state of a Longxia child doing reading comprehension in the early days. Why is the window blue, how to interpret continuous rain for three times, etc., they can answer a flower.

Park Meixi was horrified by the strange mechanism of this room and feared her situation.

Wen Xishu saw everything in his eyes, but continued to explain:

"Currently, it seems that we cannot let blue cover red, but I speculate that purifying items may reduce our red accumulation."

"Of course, you understand the price. Purifying the wrong item is likely to kill you."

"Currently, I don't know what the instant kill means of this level is. Unless our magic resistance is very high, we cannot resist these things in the Tower of Mystery."

"Finally, if red completely swallows blue... it is obvious that the three of us will become puppets."

"Just like those children in Chinese horror who have completely abandoned their autonomy and are completely manipulated by their parents."

Park Meixi said:

"Then... how should we break the game? Wen Xishu, you, you have clues, right?"

Wen Xishu nodded:

"The answer is very simple. In fact, this level is easier to guess than the first level, because at the beginning, we had props in our hands."

"What we experienced are all what the girl in the room originally experienced."

"So in this second scene, the item that needs to be purified is the diary."

"Find the diary, purify the diary, end."

Zheng Zai began to search, Wen Xishu also began to search, and Park Meixi followed after a slight hesitation.

Wen Xishu was very satisfied with Zheng Zai's mentality of daring to charge.

"Zheng Zai, find the diary, I will purify it."

Zheng Zai said:

"No need, no need, I believe you. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to get out of the first scene. I am willing to take the risk for you, I will purify it."

Wen Xishu smiled:

"I appreciate your kindness, but just listen to me, I will do it."

Zheng Zai was a little moved. He thought he was very bloody, but he didn't expect Wen Xishu, the youngest in the group, to be the most courageous.

Wen Xishu of course didn't do these things because he was bloody, responsible, or courageous.

He couldn't tell Zheng Zai clearly that I want to get the reward, brother.

It is said that you should think with a player's mind. You have been fighting monsters for a long time, and the last blow is not yours, so the head isn't snatched away? This credit thing must be exclusive.

Although it is not certain whether there is an observer mechanism, Wen Xishu must assume the worst situation.

The Tower of Mystery will be graded according to the challenger's performance, so sorry, all three items must be mine.

Wen Xishu's luck was fairly good. He knew where the diary was hidden, because under the effect of "Mixed Feelings" and the Truth Wine Glass, he had seen the answer.

Although it was presented from a strange perspective, everything was not much different from Tang Rui's memory.

"I found the diary."

Wen Xishu held the diary in his hand. He flipped through it and found that this girl really wrote everything in the diary.

He was a bit emotional, what a well-behaved child.

It is actually very easy for people to establish conditioned reflexes to suppress instincts. The simplest example—sex. Because this thing established a connection with shame, it led to a group of people who felt indecent and scandalous when they saw an arm.

The consequence of doing so is...

More and more people later began to satisfy the desires of shame hidden in their hearts pervertedly. So later people's hobbies became more and more bizarre. For example, Sita.

Wen Xishu seemed to understand why Tang Rui could take action to kill everyone she wanted to kill.

Because it was too suppressed.

【This item hides sin that cannot be let go, are you sure you want to purify it?】

The prompt appeared again, Wen Xishu didn't hesitate and chose to purify directly.

At this moment, the eyes floating on Zheng Zai and Park Meixi disappeared. Park Meixi only felt comfortable all over, and Zheng Zai also felt that the control of his body was taken back.

"He is simply like opening a heavenly eye. Up to now, I haven't found anything wrong at all..."

"The above told me to find the root of his power to clear the Tower of Mystery..."

"But he doesn't have any power at all. He just has a terrifying association ability, which can't even be called reasoning, because many places are still very far-fetched."

"But he can just find the right answer. It's too scary. This person is too scary."

"If I report truthfully... will the above believe me?"

Park Meixi had fallen into huge anxiety. She was afraid of dying at this level. But after really surviving, she started to worry about other things.

The door appeared in the middle of the scene again.

Wen Xishu said:

"Next is the final level. As long as this level is purified, we can go back."

"We are very efficient, without waiting for the three levels to overlap."

Zheng Zai said:

"Three levels overlap... what does it mean? Is it that the three anti-AFK mechanisms appear together?"

Wen Xishu nodded:

"Imagine, the tentacle monster in the first level can kill us instantly, but its vision range is limited."

"But the eyes in the second level can correct this point..."

Thinking along Wen Xishu's words, Zheng Zai and Park Meixi both felt terrified.

This is simply aimed at the player's life.

Zheng Zai said:

"Wen Xishu, thank you, really thank you very much. You saved me more than once."

Wen Xishu waved his hand and said:

"Let's go, the last level."

Zheng Zai followed him. This is the Tower of Mystery, and he just learned very heavy news.

But now, his mood seems to be much easier.

This is probably the fun of lying down and winning.

The last level.

After Zheng Zai and Park Meixi arrived at the new scene, the reactions of the two were different.

Zheng Zai observed carefully, but was not anxious. Park Meixi was anxious again.

Because there are many items in the whole scene, it can be said that there are items exuding the breath of sin everywhere, and the scene is several times larger than the first two levels combined.

This is a floor of an office building.

Wen Xishu knew that this is the last level that constitutes the parrot cage and completely destroys Tang Rui's life.

This is the workplace where Tang Rui once lived.

The others didn't know, but Wen Xishu knew very well that the theme of this level is betrayal.

Tang Rui suffered Lin Huiru's betrayal, causing her life to become incomplete again.

However, how will the theme of betrayal be presented?

Wen Xishu suddenly looked forward to it.

"What should we do now?" Park Meixi asked.

Wen Xishu said:

"Wait, blindly searching for items is useless. We have to wait for the anti-AFK mechanism to appear. Although that will cause us to encounter danger, it will also bring clues."

Zheng Zai silently recorded it. Now Wen Xishu's words are the Bible to him.

If there is a Tower of Mystery Academy, he feels that Wen Xishu's experience is the teaching of the Tower of Mystery Academy teachers.

Sure enough, it is the same as the first two levels.

Shortly after Wen Xishu's words fell, the three heard a prompt:

【Congratulations on coming to the last level. Is there a friend you can trust and entrust your back to in your life? If your friend is by your side, then you will accept the test together.】

【If your friend is not by your side, then please call his name softly.】

Park Meixi actually listened to Wen Xishu's words and began to extract information from the prompt, calling her good friend's name softly.

She hasn't had no friends in the bunker for so many years.

But Wen Xishu saw through Park Meixi's thoughts at a glance:

"Let me interpret it for you. This is a cooperation level. If your friend is by your side, it means we are like this now, the teammate is right next to you... then we will accept the test together."

"If the teammate died in the previous levels, then at this time, we silently recite the name of the old friend, which is likely to create an illusion of the old friend to assist us in clearing the level."

"Our situation meets the first type, the friend is by our side."

"So Park Meixi, stop reciting. If your friend knew you wanted to pull her to the Tower of Mystery, would she still be friends with you?"

Park Meixi had an embarrassment after being dismantled.

Wen Xishu waited patiently.

For Park Meixi, he always knew what the other party was thinking, but Zheng Zai, he also had precautions.

Simple, kind, honest, honest, these things can be disguised.

In fact, Wen Xishu already knew what the item that needed to be purified was.

But Wen Xishu was looking forward to the next link. No matter what, the link related to the theme of betrayal can better let him make a decision—

The decision of whether to wipe out the teammates.
