Chapter 83: Sequence Slot Increase

After Wen Xishu faced Jin Zaimin alone, finally survived successfully, and cleared the level in advance, the others also received different prompts one after another.

Xiao Wu, who was still struggling with inferiority and thinking that he absolutely shouldn't take a bath, so he started to clean the room constantly, was suddenly stunned.

【Based on the mechanism of this task, your performance definitely cannot be considered useless, and as you only required clearing the level, you also survived successfully. You are about to go to the guide; you should have received a generous reward, but you did not ignite true courage. Good luck.】

Xiao Wu's tears were almost coming out. At this moment, he realized that A-Shu had succeeded.

He could finally leave this place.

If he could in the future, he really didn't want to come to the Mysterious Tower again. He would just preach and teach well and let everyone believe in the Lord.

Actually, everyone's experience was different.

For Xiao Wu, this experience was extremely painful. So he developed a fear of the Mysterious Tower. Like most people.

But fortunately, in his future resume, there would always be the experience of exploring the Mysterious Tower. As an initial member of the Xishu Divine Sect, he could also confidently say: I once received the Lord's grace and survived in a place of certain death.

As for this reward, looking at the prompt, it shouldn't be high, and he had had a chance to burst out...

But it didn't matter. As long as a person could live, it was better than anything.

……

In another room, Wu Xiangjiao was planning to conquer the fat man influenced by reverse gluttony.

At the same time, he was waiting for A-Shu's news.

Now A-Shu was their leader, and A-Shu told them to stay put, so he stayed put.

But suddenly, a prompt appeared, making Wu Xiangjiao dumbfounded:

"Really solved it just like that?"

Actually, Xiangjiao had thought of a trick. According to A-Shu, the lady on the 49th floor doted on her child, so starting from the child and letting the child clamor to go out and play... the problem could be solved. And the reverse envy, that is, indulgence and doting, could be retained on the woman.

He felt he could talk about it in the next meeting.

But the prompt in front of him made him realize that A-Shu seemed to have solved the problem from the root.

【Based on the mechanism of this task, your performance definitely cannot be considered useless, and as you only required clearing the level, you also survived successfully. You are about to go to the guide; you should have received a generous reward, but you did not ignite true courage. However, your optimistic attitude is worth affirming. Good luck.】

Wu Xiangjiao sighed:

"Damn it, next time I encounter someone who wants to cut my dick, I'll let him cut it. I absolutely won't be a coward!"

Unlike Xiao Wu, Wu Xiangjiao still hoped to get more rewards. But in the end, he didn't get a very high reward because of his performance.

Wu Xiangjiao thought about it, what did he do in the Mysterious Tower?

It seemed like he just visited...

Almost lying down to win, he thought he would get a Level 2 reward at most. That was what he thought.

But he obviously underestimated this task.

……

Wen Xiange also received the prompt, exactly the same as Wu Xiangjiao's. Unlike others, Wen Xiange's first reaction was—

A-Shu and Amiao an hour ago were both a bit strange. Amiao's mental outlook changed all of a sudden.

And Amiao's injury was also healed.

Having many people would have this possibility. In the Three Towers, if someone got an invitation letter, others who didn't get it would have their memories reorganized and replaced by simulated memories.

But this process could not necessarily be said to be 100% logically consistent. Some people would have memory confusion, or memory remnants in some insignificant places.

For example, almost everyone remembered that Amiao was injured.

But in the reorganized memory, Amiao actually wouldn't be injured.

Wen Xiange felt more and more that this task had a feeling of... missing an important link.

Of course, he didn't doubt it because of this; his doubts stemmed from his thinking ability. He was just grateful because of this.

"Perhaps, Amiao and A-Shu paid huge efforts and faced many risks, but in a way that Xiao Wu, Xiangjiao, and I couldn't imagine."

"Now that the task is suddenly completed... it shows that A-Shu's guess was right."

"Eh, Lord, as the Venerable of the Xishu Divine Sect, I didn't rush to the front line. It's really my dereliction of duty."

"May the Lord bless me and let me gain more power in future training and take on more important roles."

The evaluation was that he didn't ignite true courage, which also made Wen Xiange realize his cowardice when facing certain things.

……

Amiao was the most surprised. The evaluation she received was naturally completely different from the previous three.

【Maintaining courage is already rare. When falling into the abyss of fear, regaining courage is even more commendable. Whether in the Tower of Desire or the Mysterious Tower, your performance is noteworthy. Although you did not make any contribution in the most critical nodes and plot excavation, you still made the greatest contribution you could with extremely limited resources. Looking forward to your next journey, please go to the guide and enjoy your fruits of battle.】

Amiao didn't know what completion level she had reached... but she knew the reward would definitely not be low.

She hadn't climbed the tower before. In the past, Amiao had also mixed in the Tower of Desire and knew that there would be a concluding remark after completing the task.

But the attitude of the concluding remark had never shown any tendency of encouragement or negation.

But this time, she could feel the encouraging tendency in this concluding remark. This made Amiao greatly encouraged.

Her eyes were filled with tears because she knew she could definitely survive. For this journey, she thanked everyone, especially A-Shu.

It was just that when she thought A-Shu was the Lord... she suddenly didn't know how to conduct herself.

……

……

The final time finally ended.

Wen Xishu finally didn't have any variables.

At the final critical moment, Wen Xishu also received two prompts, not the game completion rating, but related to the constellations. At the same time, there was one from the Upside-Down Dice.

【You have attracted the attention of the Mysterious Tower's special existence, Mysterious·Gemini. Your favorability with Mysterious·Gemini has increased to 15.】

【Unlocked Slaughter·An Rongzai cooperation prerequisite, this target cannot be recruited. Recruitment conditions are unknown, please continue to explore the Three Towers.】

【Unlocked Slaughter·An Youxuan recruitment prerequisite, unlocked Slaughter·An Jincheng recruitment prerequisite, unlocked Slaughter·Yin Junchi recruitment prerequisite.】

【Congratulations on successfully clearing the level. The item "Scorpio's Game Knife" obtained this time will receive a "Quality Upgrade" effect.】

Wen Xishu had a feeling that all the rewards this time were focused on strengthening one item.

Throughout the game process, that knife had already been strengthened twice, and now it had been strengthened once by the Upside-Down Dice...

He became more and more curious about the attributes of this knife.

Jin Zaimin seemed to feel that some mysterious power was disturbing the place where he was.

He said to Wen Xishu:

"If you can see my master, please convey for me... the Jin family is forever loyal to the Three Balls Group."

Wen Xishu nodded, and the surrounding scene had begun to disintegrate.

According to current information, the Three Balls Group had not fallen, and the future Jicheng would probably have a mysterious or slaughter version of the Three Balls Group.

Wen Xishu had to admit that there was a reason for the strong vitality of this group.

People like Jin Zaimin could bring their families to continue the group's life.

"May the Lord bless me, don't let me encounter the task of this trajectory line in the short term..."

Wen Xishu prayed to himself. He had a premonition that if he encountered a task related to the Three Balls Group next time, it would definitely be an extremely difficult task. At the very least, he needed to become stronger.

……

……

As the scene was swallowed by the familiar white light again, and then the white light faded, those floating clocks and doors appeared again...

Wen Xishu knew that he had finally arrived at the guide.

This was the true meaning of being able to rest. The tasks of the Mysterious Tower and the Tower of Desire had finally come to a temporary end.

The black mysterious head raised its head:

"You really did a big thing, ga ga ga ga ga ga."

Wen Xishu wondered, can you unify your laughter? Why is the style different every time?

Wen Xishu didn't say much more and started checking his attributes skillfully:

【Code Name: Wen Xishu.】

【Slaughter Tower Level: 2. Slaughter Value Limit: 105.】

【Mysterious Tower Level: 14. Magic Resistance: 19 points.】

【Tower of Desire Level: 14. Luck Value: 19 points.】

【Three Towers Item Slot: 4 slots.】

【Sequence Slot Quantity: 2. Owned Sequence: Mysterious Sequence 37·Mental Barrage. This sequence cannot be traded.】

He was suddenly shocked:

"I have an extra sequence slot?"

The mysterious head laughed: "Of course, the items you could have obtained were more than one... besides a sequence slot, you could also obtain a sequence."

"But the sequence was intercepted by another member. I guess you know who it is."

Amiao...

Wen Xishu understood. The sequence slot was provided by the novelist Yin Junchi.

Amiao's sequence was provided by the comedian He Taiping.

In the future, these two people were probably also members of the Jicheng stage, or like the An brothers, escaped from Jicheng?

Wen Xishu felt that Amiao deserved a sequence, but he still had to complain first:

"Is there something wrong? Don't you think this is very unreasonable? In a sense, I am the main carry. Shouldn't this mechanism be to give Amiao an extra sequence, instead of intercepting my sequence?"

The black mysterious head laughed:

"Gua gua gua gua, the reward for a task has an upper limit. The more people, the less the average reward... your teammates are not powerful, you should be glad."

"You enjoy their efforts, yet you still want to maximize your own gains alone. This is not right. Besides~ they did lower the difficulty of your journey."

That was true. Wen Xishu had to admit that even Xiao Wu, who contributed the least, had value.

No, to be precise, because of Xiao Wu's poor performance in the early stage, it led to Xiao Wu clearly dividing the work and using it to initiate meetings...

His contribution was not weaker than the bald head and Xiangjiao.

Wen Xishu actually didn't dwell on it too much. As it seems now, whether in the Tower of Desire or the Mysterious Tower, Mental Barrage was very buggy in obtaining intelligence.

As long as the other party's emotions were broken first, one could see the relevant memories and figure out the true direction of the plot.

For the second sequence slot, if one loaded a sequence used to ensure one's combat power, it would be the wisest.

"What level of rewards are Amiao, Xiao Wu, Xiangjiao, and the others? Don't tell me this can't be said either?" Wen Xishu asked.

"Originally it couldn't be told to you, but this time I'll make an exception. After all~ you seem quite satisfied with them."

The mysterious head continued:

"Amiao is Level 5, but she didn't obtain facilities and items, but she permanently mastered driving skills. But having said that, she also obtained a sequence, which is stronger than everything."

"Wen Xiange is Level 3, obtained a blue item, Gourmet's Nightmare. Wu Xiangjiao is Level 3, also obtained a blue item, Mutant Dick. Xiao Wu is Level 2."

Wen Xishu nodded:

"So, me."

"You successfully obtained a ticket for a Level 7 task. In one of your future journeys, you will participate in a Level 7 task. It might be the next one? It's really something to look forward to, ho ho ho ho."

Wen Xishu didn't have a good face, after all, he realized the terrifying degree of this Level 7 task.

The mysterious head paused and said:

"You should be curious about your reward. You didn't bring back facilities this time."

Wen Xishu knew the reason:

"Because of this thing?"

He held the Spanish ham knife in his hand.

The black mysterious head said:

"Its original name was Scorpio's Game Knife, a common prop."

"But Scorpio encouraged all Tower Ascenders to find the items he hid. After you found it, this item upgraded."

"It became Scorpio's Game Sublimation Knife."

"After you made the choice not to be an enemy of Scorpio, this knife became Scorpio's Miracle Knife."

"Originally, this should have been your final reward, but it actually evolved one more time..."

"It's really hell, you only climbed the tower for the third time, yet you have an orange item in your hand."

Wen Xishu remembered that above purple items were orange items. They were the most perverted among known items.

"Even among orange items, the attributes of this knife now are also the best. Now, you can already check its attributes."

In the eyes of the black mysterious head, there was actually some greed.

The purple item "Gradual Indifference" allowed Wen Xishu to enter and exit the enemy crowd as if there was no one there.

And the orange item, and listening to this meaning, it was the best among orange... the attributes would naturally only be more perverted.

Wen Xishu stared at this knife again, and this knife indeed did not disappoint him.

【Item Name: Scorpio's Cheat Device.】

【Item Description: He has many such knives and has given these knives a very high evolutionary upper limit, but he doesn't mind these knives being taken away. After all... he hasn't met anyone who can play games with him for too long. He expects someone to be able to develop these knives and expects someone to be able to duel him with the final form of this knife in the future, but his expectations always fall through.】

【Item Attributes:

Conventional Attributes: Attack +15, can easily cut through flesh and blood.

Combat Attributes—Waiting to be developed, explore the Slaughter Tower, has a certain chance to grant combat entries.

Desire Attributes—Waiting to be developed, go to the Tower of Desire, has a certain chance to grant desire entries.

Mysterious Attributes—When you hold this ham knife, every time you start a Three Towers journey, you will obtain a game-like attribute or function.】

Unlike knowing nothing at the beginning, Wen Xishu could now see some doorways, and naturally knew the perversion of this knife.

"Game-like attributes or functions... what does that refer to? Can you give an example?"

The black mysterious head said:

"You should know this question better than us. You just experienced the Scorpio mode."

"But since you asked, let's give an example... In the original serious task scene, others die when they die, but because you hold this knife, you can obtain resurrection coins through certain specific behaviors."

Wen Xishu understood. This knife was really heaven-defying. After all, game functions or attributes were more than just resurrection coins.

In the serious Tower of Desire scene that was almost no different from reality, suddenly a narration came, or a task system was suddenly implanted, an exclamation mark appeared on the character's head, or one could check character attributes, or directly give you a 2D game perspective, overlooking the entire map...

These functions, if used properly, could all be called cheats.

This was indeed a divine weapon among divine weapons.

Except for basic items like supplies, all rewards this time were basically concentrated on this knife.

Wen Xishu could imagine that this knife, combined with his own sequence in the future, would definitely have cheat-level performance in exploring the Three Towers.

"By the way, can you talk about the constellations now?"

Wen Xishu looked at the guide.

The guide's three heads were still the same:

"Hard to say." "Not easy to say." "Can't say."

"Goodbye."

Wen Xishu decided to end the conversation with the guide.

……

……

Three Towers. Bunker First Floor, Residential Floor.

After returning from the guide, he would return to the location where he originally opened the login device in the Bunker.

Amiao, Wen Xiange, Wu Xiangjiao, and Xiao Wu all returned to Wen Xiange's home.

As a residential floor, the first floor was full of people living a hard life. The population here was dense, and many fights happened every day.

Many people here were not satisfied with the status quo, but they were powerless. Too many people's lives were filled with despair and oppression.

After Wen Xishu appeared, Wen Xiange thought that there should be someone who could bring hope to the bottom-level people.

So not long after, the Xishu Divine Sect was established.

At this time, several elders of the Xishu Divine Sect... looked at each other.

"I, I obtained quite a few supplies... I'll go to the warehouse on the second floor later, and I can collect them!" Xiao Wu was very excited.

After returning to the Bunker, Xiao Wu's twisted inferiority disappeared.

Wu Xiangjiao and Wen Xiange were also very happy. Wu Xiangjiao said:

"I have a blue item! I plan to sell it to the Material Department of the Three Towers Academy! He he he, I can visit the Three Towers Academy!"

Wen Xiange also said:

"It seems that A-Jiao, like me, the Level 3 completion rate is obtaining extra items, facilities, or technology on the basis of Level 2..."

"Looking at it this way, we are both Level 3 completion, and you are Level 2, Xiao Wu?"

Xiao Wu nodded:

"Sorry, Venerable, my performance was too poor."

Wen Xiange shook his head:

"No, no, we are all the same. This time it was Amiao and A-Shu's credit. By the way, Amiao, how are you?"

Amiao looked at the few people and said happily:

"I... I obtained a mysterious sequence, Mysterious Sequence 165·Joy Transfer. I don't know how to use this sequence specifically yet... but I think, next time I explore the Mysterious Tower, perhaps I can play a bigger role. And! I also obtained Level 5 supplies!"

Level 5.

This number made Wen Xiange and the others widen their eyes. The mysterious sequence in the top two hundred, plus the number 5, made them all feel a bit unreal.

Wu Xiangjiao exclaimed:

"How much? Level 5!?"

Level 4 completion is basic supplies to satisfy the seven-day survival of the "community," and obtaining some high-level civilization items, equipment, and facilities.

And Level 5 is bringing back some epoch-making "technology" or items, facilities, and equipment on the basis of Level 4.

The technology Amiao brought back was driving technology. This technology was actually the most useless in the Bunker. Even if Amiao's technology was miraculous and not limited to one type of vehicle, it was the top-level in vehicles such as cars, ships, planes, and even shovels.

It was equivalent to directly obtaining vehicle proficiency.

But inside the Bunker... these technologies actually couldn't be used.

Unless one day, humanity returned to that vast world that only existed in the mouths of the elderly.

But even so, it still shocked Wen Xiange and the others.

Wen Xiange said:

"Amiao... how on earth did you do it!"

Amiao's answer was very divine:

"Faith! Faith! Faith in the Lord!"

Wen Xiange and the others looked respectful. Wen Xiange said:

"It seems that our Xishu Divine Sect has indeed received the Lord's grace! We are five people!"

"Five people exploring the Mysterious Tower! Everyone survived! Lord, I praise you!"

Wu Xiangjiao suddenly asked:

"By the way, we don't seem to know A-Shu's whereabouts... Amiao is Level 5, then what level is A-Shu?"

Wen Xiange actually thought of it just now. Amiao is Level 5, shouldn't A-Shu be Level 6?

If it weren't for the fact that Level 7 couldn't appear on the seventh floor, he would have felt that A-Shu's performance deserved Level 7.

Now, Wen Xiange already had a little suspicion.

Wen Xishu, Level 6 completion...

And A-Shu clearly took such an ID, but denied it in front, saying he had no faith.

Connecting these things together, Wen Xiange looked at Amiao:

"Amiao... A-Shu, could it be—"

Amiao immediately shook her head:

"Venerable, don't say it. I'll take you to find A-Shu. I know where A-Shu is. But I have to wait until I finish the surgery... I think, if we all appear in front of him healthy, he will be very happy."

Wen Xiange nodded:

"Good, good! Then I... I'll prepare too."

Wen Xiange had a premonition that Amiao shaking her head was not expressing denial, but wanting to keep it secret first.

This deepened his suspicion.

He suddenly became excited.

Xiao Wu said:

"Amiao, you go for it! We will pray for you!"

Wu Xiangjiao also said:

"Sister Miao, you will definitely be fine!"

Wen Xiange said:

"When you get better, we will go find A-Shu together."
