Three Towers Game-Chapter 58 - 48 Quick Pass Plan

Wen Xishu became interested.

The two strongest people in the Bunker, Slaughter Tower Xun Hui, Desire Tower Wenren Mirror.

These two are the pinnacles of their respective tower systems.

Of course, Albert is not just the pinnacle; he is an outlier. And it can’t be ruled out that there are other outliers in the Desire Tower system.

But people recognize the Celestial Ladder List. So in a way, Xun Hui and Wenren Mirror are the most popular in the Bunker.

If Wenren Mirror owed him a favor... that wouldn’t be bad either.

Wen Xishu didn’t like the various schemes of the Bunker; if he could, he wouldn’t mind having a good kill spree with Zheng Zai.

But he was still too weak.

Everything has to be done step by step. At this stage, Wen Xishu’s only desire was to survive, secure a foothold in the Bunker, and ideally, have ties with the major factions.

As for those merits taken from him and the facilities built with his name on them...

Wen Xishu believed that everything he lost would be returned to him double.

"Thank you both, at least I know a wrong direction now. When it comes to charming people, I don’t think I can match Wenren Mirror, but at least... I can try other approaches."

Wen Xishu decided not to delay any longer.

After freeloading a strategy, he immediately turned to leave.

At this moment, Ji Bodah was very eager to see Wen Xishu’s abilities.

Last time, he and Liu Ruyan had noticed Wen Xishu’s turning movement.

But the two of them managed to hold back.

Mainly because Wen Xishu had displayed an impressive background, and as mentors, the Academy teachers were generally polite to students.

As Wen Xishu’s figure disappeared, Ji Bodah said:

"I don’t even feel like climbing the tower now; I just want to rush to the principal’s office and find out exactly what this kid’s background is."

Liu Ruyan said:

"He didn’t lie; there were no excited muscle responses when one brags or lies. Instead, he got a bit excited after learning about Wenren Mirror’s regret, a challenger’s excitement."

Ji Bodah said:

"Do you think it’s possible... that he’s the Wen Xishu?"

Liu Ruyan was momentarily stunned and shook her head saying:

"It’s said Wen Xishu’s supplies come from the Deceit Tower."

But after saying that, she suddenly thought of the sneaky way the boy had when activating the login device.

She looked at Ji Bodah, and Ji Bodah smiled and said:

"If this is true, it’s a big deal. I really need to ask the principal; otherwise, I won’t feel settled."

"Let’s go, dear. Good luck to you, and good luck to me. Hopefully, we can heal these unfortunate people in the Desire Tower soon."

Liu Ruyan nodded, and both of them activated their login devices.

...

...

The world of the Desire Tower is a world of love.

But this love does not seem to come from the Desire Tower itself, but from the Bunker.

The Desire Tower feels like a sick world, while the Bunker is the medication. The Slaughter Tower and Deceit Tower are severely ill and need both tracing and strong medicine.

As Wen Xishu entered the Desire Tower, he suddenly had this notion. Frequent space transitions made him somewhat disoriented.

But compared to the first time, he had adapted much more. The thoughts in his head quickly cleared because the scenery in his vision had become clear.

The sixth floor of the Desire Tower, Jiangcheng.

The differences in cities were becoming increasingly small, which made it difficult for Wen Xishu to recognize where Jiangcheng was at first glance. However, from the accents of the locals, it seemed to be somewhere around Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Wen Xishu liked the soft Wu dialect of this area but didn’t like the local cuisine. As always, upon entering the Desire Tower, Wen Xishu received a prompt.

[Tang Rui’s current happiness value: 0. Mission status: Incomplete.]

[Remaining time: 47 hours, 59 minutes, 30 seconds.]

Due to having a Luck Value of twelve, Wen Xishu appeared not far from the mission target this time.

Luck Value influences many things. Each time entering the Desire Tower, he would be given a reasonable temporary identity for the exploration.

Whether this identity has enemies, whether this identity is legal, how much wealth this identity possesses, the initial equipment of this identity, the initial position of this identity, and the initial favorability towards the target...

All these factors are determined by the Luck Value.

Even the timing of task entry is determined by the Luck Value.

And those who enter through an invitation often get an additional Luck Value bonus.

For instance, last time, Wen Xishu arrived at a point where everything was just beginning.

So in a way, differences in Luck Value lead to different difficulties when entering the Desire Tower; in simple terms, it changes the way you open it.

Wen Xishu had decent luck this time. With a starting Luck Value of twelve plus the invitation bonus, he appeared not far from the mission target.

This was a bar named Kong Beiqie. A homonym for "empty regret of a white-haired young man."

This bar wasn’t noisy, the bartender was mixing drinks, and there were only a few people casually sitting at the counter. The music playing in the distance was also very gentle.

Wen Xishu initially thought about asking around to find out who Tang Rui was; he shouldn’t be too far from the target.

Constantly asking would surely narrow down the range quickly.

But suddenly, he realized he seemed to have a sense for the target. This kind of feeling was something Wen Xishu didn’t have last time.

Deceit Sequence 37· Mental Barrage gave Wen Xishu a certain level of eerie perception ability.

And the bearer of such abilities, within the rules, would have some sensitivity.

This sensitivity was very faint, with unclear direction—like an elusive scent or a distant sigh.

Jack understood, it was the power of the Triad. The so-called rules allowed using the Deceit Tower’s powers and tools within the Desire Tower.

This was originally absolutely forbidden. But because of the crazy dice, Jack, now, could use the power of the sequence.

No wonder when he encountered Zheng Zai, his first reaction was that Zheng Zai’s problem wasn’t a disease, but the sequence.

Now the same feeling came to him again, in this bar, it seemed someone was there, with the same peculiarity, hiding an eerie power.

Jack began to search for that person, suddenly, his gaze met with a twenty-six or twenty-seven-year-old girl.

The girl looked at Jack, and Jack looked at the girl.

There was a certain confusion in the girl’s eyes, as if she had suddenly sensed something, but it was too faint to grasp any details.

Jack directly approached the girl.

The girl had fluffy short hair, she looked like a little delinquent.

Because her hair was dyed in vivid colors of pink and green interwoven.

Her tattoos were exaggerated, covering her entire arm.

She wore leather pants, but her upper body was unusually exposed, showing a flat belly.

She seemed to belong in a crazy nightclub bombarded with ear-piercing heavy metal music, rather than here.

She smoked and the confusion in her eyes gradually turned to a bit of haziness, perhaps a bit of intoxication.

"Tang Rui?" Jack asked directly.

"Yes, who are you?" Seeing Jack approaching, Tang Rui wasn’t afraid; instead, she raised her glass.

Perhaps it was Jack’s slightly roguish demeanor that made her not repulsed.

Jack watched the girl raise her glass and suddenly smiled.

No wonder so many people chose to resolve issues with tools on lower levels.

On the lower levels, a slightly higher Luck Value would encounter a opening like Jack’s.

In this dreamy light, liquid swaying in the tall glass always easily stirs a spark. Moreover, the girl’s appearance would captivate Wenren Mirror.

Jack wasn’t interested in such methods; if he fooled around with women in the Desire Tower’s script world... he would feel like he was screwing others, and sooner or later he’d be screwed too.

Time was precious, as a pure plot enthusiast, Jack didn’t want to waste time—

He wanted to understand what Tang Rui had been through and investigate why the Deceit Tang Rui’s checkpoint related to four different scenes.

Which four polluted items corresponded to those scenes.

Why did this girl, after Wenren Mirror brought such beautiful love... still choose to commit suicide.

If he were to investigate slowly, forty-eight hours wouldn’t be enough.

So—Jack decided to do a speedy run.

He was now certain that he could use Deceit Tower’s tools and sequences.

Without hesitation, Jack took out the Truth-Revealing Cup.

"Do you dare to use my cup to drink a few glasses? This cup has magical effects. Once you drink from it, you will gain happiness."

Tang Rui didn’t hesitate, took the cup, and started pouring wine.

Jack now confirmed that this girl’s world had truly shattered to nearly nothing.

Although the Truth-Revealing Cup was very beautifully crafted, drinking from a stranger’s cup in such a place, and almost without hesitation pouring wine... was still too dangerous.

This wasn’t the same trust Jack had in strangers; it was total indifference to what would happen next.

Like being certain she was already bad enough and wouldn’t encounter worse.

Jack felt this was good, it made things simpler. Starting in the bar, directly cheating with Deceit Tower’s tools to ask causation.

This gave Jack the feeling of playing a speedrun game. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

What Wenren Mirror couldn’t accomplish in seven days, he might achieve in just a few glasses of wine.

Tang Rui said:

"So you will gain happiness too?"

"Of course, I use the same cup as you; I don’t know what will happen after drinking, but fate brought us together, maybe in another time it will bring luck to us both."

Jack also filled his cup with wine.

He didn’t lie, there were two Truth-Revealing Cups; he and Tang Rui each had one at this moment.

However, Jack knew what the Desire Tower’s world was like. He didn’t mind telling all his truths to a spirit within the Desire Tower.

Tang Rui said:

"How do we play? Spin the bottle? Roll the dice?"

Jack laughed:

"You pick the rules. Just one thing, the quicker the better."

Tang Rui inexplicably felt this was exciting:

"Then let’s roll the dice, guess odd or even. Odd I drink, even you drink."

"No problem."

Tang Rui asked the bartender for dice; the two didn’t stay by the bar but moved to a slightly quieter spot.

In the last few days of her life... Tang Rui really wanted to go insane.

Jack liked this rapid unfolding, though he didn’t know that while he would soon understand the cause and effect of the story...

This trip in the Desire Tower would be bloodier than the Deceit Tower’s, but fortunately, he was the creator of the bloodshed.
