Three Towers Game

Chapter 11: Chapter 8 Rich Family’s Child_2

Now under the pressure of the situation, Wen Xishu shouted something similar.

”Jennifer, don’t turn around!”

Jack’s thoughts would manifest, and his greatest hatred towards Yulia wasn’t her contempt for the poor, but her preventing Jennifer from watching his performance.

At this moment, that hatred also manifested, reciprocating tit for tat.

The woman behind them wasn’t really Yulia, but rather a manifestation of Jack’s mental state.

Just when Wen Xishu thought Jennifer was about to experience a fatal turn back, and he could only achieve a low-score bad ending—

Jennifer actually didn’t turn around.

A prompt that greatly delighted Wen Xishu appeared in his mind.

[Your stable emotions provided Deceit Jennifer with belief. Affinity met the standard, and at this moment, Deceit Jennifer chose to trust you.]

Three times of raising the affinity actually had such an effect.

Jennifer was actually quite smart too.

She probably guessed that her mom couldn’t be nearby at this time.

When her mom told her to stay under the bed and then left...

Jennifer wondered if her mom was going to abandon her. Was she just a tool to attract Uncle Jack while hiding under the bed?

But if Wen Xishu had not performed so steadily earlier, Jennifer might still turn around in such a scene.

The woman continued to shout, her voice becoming more and more shrill, even gradually turning ferocious.

”Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer! Jennifer...”

The speed of that voice quickened, becoming bizarrely distorted.

But Jennifer just closed her eyes, holding Wen Xishu tightly with her small hands. Wen Xishu did not let down his guard, but his evaluation of Jennifer improved a lot.

He had to admit, this little girl was indeed a qualified protection target, completely lacking the characteristics of a dim-witted NPC that forcibly increases task difficulty for the protagonist.

What made Wen Xishu even more excited was that he finally saw the stairway exit.

As the woman’s shouts gradually became inaudible, this endless staircase also had an end. Wen Xishu successfully reached the first floor of the building.

The bottom of the stairs on the first floor was only a few steps away from the building’s exit.

The task was about to end.

”Jennifer, do you think you can leave me by escaping this building? Can you handle the outside world alone? This is just the beginning.”

”I will always be with you!”

Jack’s voice came from a distant floor.

Wen Xishu suddenly stopped, looked at Jennifer and said with a smile:

”Sorry, Jennifer, you leave here first, I have something to do.”

Sending Jennifer out of the building and then successfully leaving himself would be considered task accomplished.

To be precise, his successful departure was key; whether Jennifer could leave only affected the final completion rate.

Based on the invitation’s hint, Wen Xishu was absolutely certain there were still areas in this task worth exploring.

So he didn’t plan to complete the task now.

After Jennifer reluctantly left the building, he first covered his login device with his sleeve.

Then he took out the invitation and bit his finger to press a fingerprint on it.

The patterns on the invitation began to squirm.

In that moment, everything around stilled. Time completely froze at that instant.

[About to enter the [Rest Area], Deceit Tower trial progress paused, all objects in the area, including other players from the Three Towers, will also enter a time-stop state.]

[Entering the Desire Tower through the invitation channel should not exceed forty-eight hours. After forty-eight hours, you will be forcibly sent back to the Deceit Tower. You can also return to the Deceit Tower via the invitation earlier.]

Two pieces of information floated in Wen Xishu’s mind.

What pleased him was that if it was a multiplayer task, the person with the invitation would cause everyone else to enter the time-stop state as well.

This meant that later, even if he teamed up with others to explore the Deceit Tower, he could use the invitation without worrying about being discovered.

But the invitation was obviously not easy to find, and each task likely had different conditions to acquire one.

The surrounding scenery became blurry, and Wen Xishu couldn’t move.

He originally wondered if the invitation would pause the task progress, putting everything in the Deceit Tower into a time-stop state.

Could he act like a protagonist in an island country movie during the time-stop period?

It seemed he couldn’t.

Compared to other objects frozen in the time-stop in this area, Wen Xishu wasn’t much better.

The only thing he could do was think.

But there wasn’t much time to think; he barely had time to feel the stillness...

His brain felt a wave of dizziness. Then he entered the next area.

...

...

”Level six, helping the basketball player find joy task. Any pro knows the details? I heard you need to learn how to fly a helicopter?”

”Eighteen here, age eighteen, length eighteen, about to head to level nine. Task is to bring joy to game producer Miyazaki Takaō. Anyone know if he’s a pervert? How to bend him? I only know how to subdue with strength!”

”Level four, sky-high wedding task, guide for sale, teaching you how to act as a high, rich, and handsome guy in front of the target, ensuring her joy, making her initiate and unlocking hidden actions.”

Shouts came from afar, leaving Wen Xishu a bit befuddled.

But he quickly understood that he seemed to have entered a sort of transitional area rather than the Desire Tower just yet.

Desire Tower Rest Area.
