Wen Xishu was a bit surprised; Wang Yueyun's association ability was actually stronger than Zheng Zai's.

This ability is not about reasoning ability; combining two seemingly unrelated things to think about actually relies on intuition and imagination.

Wen Xishu said:

"Just a coincidence. You don't think I, Wen, am that Wen, right? As for the special course... um, I can't tell you."

"How about you two, how was the first class?"

For questions that shouldn't be answered, Wen Xishu felt that he didn't even need to find an excuse.

Wang Yueyun didn't dwell on it much either, saying:

"The first class was just to get familiar. They talked about some rules, talked about some history of the school, talked a little bit about common knowledge of the Slaughter Tower, and had a physical fitness test."

Wen Xishu asked:

"How was it? With such perverted physical fitness for both of you, taking first place in the physical fitness test shouldn't be a problem, right?"

A layer of frost covered Wang Yueyun's face, and he said deeply:

"That guy named Miyamoto Yishu was first place, I was third, and Nisen was second."

Nisen also said:

"Anyone with 'Tree' in their name is a bit awesome, but he looks like a shorty at first glance."

Miyamoto Yishu? Wen Xishu noted this name. Being able to have even more perverted physical fitness than Nisen and Wang Yueyun was quite surprising to Wen Xishu.

Nisen said:

"This person's character is very low. Although his ability is very strong, he is too much of a show-off. Little Yun and I will beat him down sooner or later!"

Wang Yueyun only said:

"He is from the Miyamoto family. It is said that he is one of the six major families under the Council of Elders. Like the Xun family, they could clearly go to the Desire Tower, but they all emphasize military exploits, and family disciples will be taken to the Slaughter Tower for training."

"He is indeed very strong. He is stronger than both Nisen and me in physical fitness. It is very likely because... he has a sequence."

"I am not making excuses for being inferior to him, but that speed is not speed that a human should have."

"He is also very arrogant."

When Wang Yueyun said this, he clenched his fists:

"Now it's a credit system. He said he wants to exceed the second place by double the credits."

This sentence hit Wang Yueyun, who wanted to be first, because this sentence implied that others were only worthy of competing for second place.

Therefore, Wang Yueyun was very unconvinced.

But Wang Yueyun really had no way. He rarely spoke so many words easily.

According to Wen Xishu's understanding of the King of Pretending, this guy always points his index finger at the bridge of his nose and then says things like "I must work hard" and "I must surpass" in a deep tone.

This time, it seems this Miyamoto Yishu really dealt a big blow to Wang Yueyun. A genius from a certain area of the lower levels, coming to an academy full of geniuses, often goes through this step.

Wen Xishu didn't care at all. If Albert was telling the truth...

Exploring the Mysterious Tower gives double credits, so he was actually already far ahead and leaving everyone in the dust.

He just hoped that it wouldn't be too much of a blow to his two roommates, especially the King of Pretending, Wang Yueyun.

He was not interested in Miyamoto Yishu's strength, but he was very interested in the six major families.

Because not long ago, in his conversation with Albert, it was mentioned that someone from the six major families would contact him later.

Time goes back to one day ago.

After successfully returning to the bunker, Wen Xishu met Albert's assistant, Jia Baer, not long after.

The other party seemed to know when Wen Xishu would return to the bunker from the Three Towers, and not long after Wen Xishu returned, he came to pass a message to Wen Xishu.

This 1.5-meter-tall assistant led Wen Xishu to a garden in the Desire Tower Academy department and met Albert.

Albert was playing chess, playing chess alone.

Wen Xishu also happened to want to chat with Albert. He hoped that Albert could pay attention to Zheng Zai, so as not to let Zheng Zai suffer too much trouble.

At the same time, he also had to sell a favor. A favor from the Senior Wenren family among the six major families.

He briefly recounted his experience, focusing on what he had obtained.

"You mean you brought back a building called 'Shipwreck Cabin'? Hahahaha, interesting name. This facility sounds very interesting just by hearing it. I must go experience it and see how it shipwrecks."

After Albert heard Wen Xishu finish recounting, he let out his signature heroic laugh.

"As for that kid named Zheng Zai you mentioned, I won't pay attention to him. Although he can clear the Mysterious Tower alone and obtain a level-four reward, he still can't enter my eyes. However, someone will protect him."

Albert still gave Wen Xishu face.

He had a premonition that Wen Xishu could return, but he didn't expect Wen Xishu to return and bring back level-six supplies and facilities again.

The thing that Albert found most amusing was that Wen Xishu placed the entertainment facility next to the level-six facility hospital.

This kid is holding a grudge in his heart.

Although he couldn't do anything to the upper levels of the bunker, he definitely didn't completely obey, and from time to time he thought about disgusting the upper levels of the bunker.

You must know that the upper levels of the bunker had never thought about allocating entertainment facilities above level three to a level like the second floor of the bunker.

Wen Xishu said:

"I don't know what that Shipwreck Cabin is either. The Guide told me that I would have a considerable amount of wealth, but I don't know how to cash this thing in."

Albert said:

"Take some time to go into the Shipwreck Cabin and see, and you'll know. I think that place will have the answer."

"In addition, Liu Jinsen and Sha Ruijing have already started to help you carry out the second round of vigorous publicity. Let's not discuss the facility for now, after all, we don't know the effect."

"But level-six supplies can save the lives of an entire floor of people."

"The three words 'Wen Xishu' will have more and more influence, at least in the lower levels. If you have a chance, go to the lower levels and walk around, and you will know what you look like in the eyes of those people."

"As for the team hired by Sha Ruijing, I can only say that small workshops use fierce materials; they are completely aiming at creating a god."

"After the midterm test, if you really get your name back, your reputation will be very terrifying."

"By then, the challenges and expectations you face will be completely different."

Wen Xishu shook his head and said:

"I will not be placed on a high pedestal by fame. You don't need to persuade me in a roundabout way."

"Fame is just a tool for me to survive, not the purpose of my survival."

Albert liked this young man more and more:

"I have already asked Jia Baer to record your credits. You can choose to speed up the exploration."

"Kid, it's actually still very difficult for you to change your situation right now."

"I didn't have such expectations for you originally, but you have already exceeded my expectations twice."

Albert's smile deepened:

"Quantitative change will lead to qualitative change. If level-six facilities keep appearing on the second floor of the bunker, and they all come from the same person... hehe, hahahahaha..."

"I can't wait."

Wen Xishu suddenly had a doubt and said:

"Is it possible that only I can do this? There are quite a few hidden big shots in the bunker. Why does everyone choose... to arrange those facilities on the upper levels?"

"This actually doesn't make sense logically. The second floor of the bunker shouldn't be so... barren."

Wen Xishu had thought about one thing.

According to Sha Ruijing, the bunker only had two floors at the beginning, so the only functional floor was the second floor.

And legendary figures like Albert were also the first batch to explore the Three Towers.

The level-six facilities they brought back should logically have quite a few stored on the second floor.

The second floor should theoretically be densely packed with various facilities.

If there were only two or three floors in the early bunker, how could it be that all high-level facilities were on the top floor in the later period?

Albert said:

"Because of the Great Devouring. Let's skip this topic for now. You just need to know... the Great Devouring will change the bunker's landscape."

"For the rest, you can go to the library to look it up."

"Alright, I came here today actually just to tell you this. Liu Jinsen and Sha Ruijing are working hard to maintain your image."

"In the Anquan Bureau, there are also some people you can trust for the time being. Recently, there might be people from the Anquan Bureau and the Government Bureau looking for you to ask questions."

"But don't worry, you are my student now. They only dare to ask you questions. They don't dare to interrogate you."

Wen Xishu knew that this old guy definitely wanted to issue an order to leave. However, he didn't intend to end the conversation; he still had a big favor he hadn't given.

Before coming to see Albert, Wen Xishu had already calculated it.

"Can you arrange for me to meet Wen Renjing?"

Albert was quite surprised:

"Why do you want to see him? He is busier than I am. He doesn't mix in the Mysterious Tower either."

Wen Xishu shook his head and said:

"You don't know about this. I did him a big favor, but it's hard to explain, and you don't mix in the Desire Tower either. It would be a waste of breath to say it."

Tsk, Albert actually quite liked having a student who dared to talk to him so arrogantly.

"Alright then, since you said so, I will arrange it. The location is still here, and I will let Jia Baer notify you of the time."

"Jia Baer will lead you over then."

Albert stood up and said seriously:

"If you can enter the Desire Tower by means, Wen Renjing will indeed be of great help to you."

"But I hope you really did him a big favor, and not take the opportunity to get things from him that you shouldn't ask."

"Kid, if you don't know some secrets, but outsiders think you know... then you must understand, you'd better never let them know that you don't know."

Wen Xishu instantly understood this very convoluted sentence.

He originally thought that the conversation with Albert would end here; this was the final warning.

As a result, Albert asked another outrageous question:

"By the way, I almost forgot. It's fine to meet Wen Renjing, but your orientation is normal, right? According to the LGBT saying, you are a straight man, right?"

Wen Xishu was shocked. What kind of outrageous question was this?

Seeing Wen Xishu looking at him with an expression of looking at an idiot, Albert laughed loudly:

"Hahahaha, sorry sorry. I think you should be. The atmosphere in the bunker has been led astray by those idiots in the upper levels. There are too many types of genders."

"In short, you are a pure male who likes women, and only likes women, then there is no problem. Why ask this... you'll know when you see Wen Renjing."

In the cafeteria.

Wen Xishu, Wang Yueyun, and Nisen were still continuing to talk about the Miyamoto family of the six major families.

All along, the Miyamoto family had been the second Slaughter Tower family.

Today's first Slaughter Tower family was still the Xun family. The number one person on the Slaughter Tower ladder was still Xun Hui.

However, it is said that Miyamoto Yishu is a super genius who can surpass Xun Hui. Although he just entered the Slaughter Tower Academy this year, his future tower-climbing progress will definitely make everyone's jaws drop.

Nisen and Wang Yueyun were telling it one after another.

Nisen had that indifferent attitude, as long as he was happy. Wang Yueyun was like all geniuses were his enemies, and he liked to increase the intensity for himself.

Wen Xishu thought it was quite interesting, and he planned to invite the two to go to the Shipwreck Cabin to take a look.

As the owner of the cabin, he had to know what this cabin was for.

"The three of us, should we take advantage of the break tomorrow afternoon to go to the second floor and see that Shipwreck Cabin?" Wen Xishu thought and said.

"No problem!" Nisen immediately became interested.

Wang Yueyun said coldly:

"I heard it's a test of friendship. How about it, are you interested in this kind of thing that is of no help to becoming stronger?"

Wen Xishu said:

"Let's try it. Don't be too competitive either. If Nisen and I both go, and you don't go, don't you think our friendship has already started to shipwreck? Don't you treat us as friends?"

Wang Yueyun was silent for a while:

"Alright, let's go take a look."

Wen Xishu felt that the King of Pretending was quite cute. Although he liked to act cool, as soon as he mentioned not treating them as friends, he could immediately change his attitude.

Such a person is actually very reliable.

It was also at this time that Jia Baer appeared in the cafeteria.

He walked straight toward the location where Wen Xishu was, attracting a lot of onlookers.

Three stinky men from the Slaughter Tower Academy went to eat together, and students from the Desire Tower Academy wouldn't even take a second look.

But Jia Baer's arrival quickly made the three of them the focus of the crowd.

Although Jia Baer's voice was very soft, it was still heard by Nisen next to him.

Nisen stood up directly:

"Wow! Bro! This is so cool! So cool! Wen Renjing! My mom, my sister, my grandma, my little sister, my aunt, and my brother all love him to death!"

"Oh, although half of them died in the epidemic not long ago, they will love Wen Renjing even if they go to heaven!"

"Wen Renjing actually takes the initiative to invite you to play chess! Wen Xun, can you help me get his autograph!"

Nisen was too excited, which directly made everyone in the entire cafeteria hear what was going on.

At this moment, the men and women of the Desire Tower Academy couldn't sit still.

Wen Renjing, that heartthrob whom everyone in the entire bunker loved, actually invited a freshman from the Slaughter Tower to play chess.

Everyone was guessing which family this Slaughter Tower freshman belonged to.

Many handsome or beautiful students from the Desire Tower Academy couldn't help but wonder why?

Wen Xishu was quite calm. After saying goodbye to Wang Yueyun and Nisen and agreeing on the time to go to the Shipwreck Cabin together, he followed Jia Baer and walked away slowly.

There was some frustration in Wang Yueyun's eyes:

"How does Wen Xun have a relationship with such a big shot? Who exactly is he?"

Jia Baer's pace was always neither fast nor slow, steady like a robot.

Wen Xishu attracted a lot of attention along the way. It wasn't until he entered that garden that he realized all the people around had disappeared.

The place where he played chess and communicated with Albert yesterday seemed like a forbidden area of the academy.

He actually didn't care much about what kind of person Wen Renjing was, and didn't care how charming this heartthrob was.

For Wen Xishu, fake succubi only rely on beauty.

A real succubus must be like the people of the old Liu family, making a bunch of tough guys bow down and die for them.

Wen Xishu's ambition was also to be a succubus. A Mysterious Tower succubus, a succubus determined to make the Slaughter Tower full of foster fathers.

So Wen Xishu was already thinking about how to obtain the most information and the highest reward from the number one person on the Desire Tower ladder through this cross-class conversation.

He soon arrived at the place where he communicated with Albert yesterday.

Wen Renjing was already waiting there.

Although he had been prepared for a long time and had guessed from the reactions of the crowd that Wen Renjing's appearance was very attractive to women, and even men...

But when Wen Xishu looked over for the first time, he was still fiercely shocked.
