Why are you here? Why are you here?! What do you want! What do you want!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Huiru’s skin crawled! She saw the knife in Tang Rui’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoru, we are good sisters. It’s raining too heavily, I came to see you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu looked at Tang Rui’s demeanor, feeling that she had nailed it, already showing a bit of his own flair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying I came to kill you is too narrow. But saying it’s raining too heavily, I came to see you brings a lot more taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold rain howling outside, while inside the house, there was a resentful woman in the dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Huiru wanted to scream, but the next second, Tang Rui grabbed Lin Huiru’s hair, tugging hard and pulling her off the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A finger was pressed against Lin Huiru’s lips, Tang Rui softly said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be quiet, Xiaoru. All these years, if only you had learned to keep your mouth shut.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sharp knife cut a crimson scar on Lin Huiru’s skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Huiru wanted to scream in pain, but when her eyes met Tang Rui’s rage-filled eyes, as the cold mixed emotions multiplied...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly didn’t dare to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu had to admit, in mastering serial power, Tang Rui was simply a genius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed able to manipulate mixed emotions, making her opponent feel the emotion she wanted to create.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, she should be in pain, should scream, should howl. But Lin Huiru just couldn’t scream out, she was shrouded in endless cold, immersed in complete despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the rumor came, Tang Rui naively believed that life was indeed getting better, that there was indeed sweetness after hardship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn’t expect that everything she worked hard to achieve would be destroyed by her best friend. At that time, she truly felt like falling into an ice cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The knife pierced the flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why aren’t you smiling? Give me a smile. Your smile is so sweet, I might stop.\" Tang Rui asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On that day in her memory, when the rumors spread, Lin Huiru just smiled as if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if the collapse of Tang Rui’s world didn’t affect the beauty of time and even made the air smell sweeter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She kept smiling sweetly at Tang Rui, thinking it was just an ordinary joke, completely unaware of the damage her actions would cause Tang Rui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, remembering that smile, Tang Rui felt disgusted. Every time she was bullied in college, she saw such a smile on Lin Huiru’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t a comforting smile, it was a smile of deception. If you think about it, many of the malice she suffered in college might have been related to the owner of that smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Huiru obediently smiled, fear forcing her to smile. That smile was as ugly as could be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Rui also smiled, her smile even had a hint of charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Wen Xishu knew that the suffering and story of desire and Tang Rui had truly ended completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her inner knots had disappeared. Scum had met their scum’s end, and villains had met their villain’s end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for after the cold apocalypse arrives, whether she would coexist with slaughter and kindness or become a complete demon, it was not something Wen Xishu needed to care about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu only knew one thing, as a player, the task was to survive in the game and then become stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And all of this was reflected in the Three Towers game—accepting tasks, understanding tasks, completing tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of the storm outside covered so much noise and crime. When Tang Rui walked out, the blood stains on her face looked like a blooming flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The storm quickly washed away that crimson flower, but the smile on Tang Rui’s face did not disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is truly a crazy and long night. Thank you for being here. Tonight has been... really crazy for me, ever since drinking that glass of wine, everything has been unbelievable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, after today, the craziest thing Tang Rui wanted to do was to end her life, like a parrot that died by crashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although under the influence of strange forces, she did not really die. But every day thereafter, she lived in pain and self-doubt, worse than death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu did not find this very crazy:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is just an ordinary night. Don’t think too much of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If order does not collapse, if the apocalypse does not come, then for you and me, this is indeed a crazy and sinful night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But as I said, the apocalypse is coming, and compared to the real apocalypse, tonight is nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You will soon see a lot of real slaughter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The storm in a teacup means nothing in a tub. Although Wen Xishu did not know what impact that apocalypse would have on the human world...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the Bunker Age could be seen as the human survivors’ center post-apocalypse, that apocalypse would destroy at least ninety percent of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>",970,"2026-06-03T11:12:39.009Z","2026-06-03T11:12:44.449Z",1,"novelbin.me","6945e085d17d1c354296604b13f2b2c11f6ccc00c1d692b0a78627e06662062a","three-towers-game-chapter-74","three-towers-game-chapter-72",1179,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-towers-game-cover.jpg"]
