Three Towers Game

Chapter 76: Chapter 54: Speedrun Deceit Tower_2

Zheng Zai and Park Mi-hye were somewhat puzzled because the question was too simple.

”Three... three doors? Why ask that?” Park Mi-hye said.

Wen Xishu thought as expected, everyone’s memory except his own, who had the invitation, had been altered.

He had wanted to test the effect of the invitation last time. Although there were hints, certain things had to be tested personally.

Nonetheless, this result still shocked Wen Xishu.

Because in the Three Towers, Bunker People could alter the fate trajectory of Three Tower People, anchoring memories...

But if one reversed the whole process, could it also be seen as — the Three Towers were actually altering the memories of Bunker People?

Under the effect of the bet dice, Wen Xishu could use the rules and powers of the other two towers in the Desire Tower.

But in the Bunker, apart from specific areas, even the bet dice couldn’t exert any effect.

The Bunker appeared to be more confining than the Desire Tower.

However, these speculations were too distant, and Wen Xishu quickly returned his thoughts back to reality:

”Mm, no problem, alright, back to the topic, this is a study room, there are many practice questions here, if we research them, we will find that these are competition questions.”

Zheng Zai’s eyes widened, deeply impressed, mainly because — even though his academic performance was decent, he didn’t know these were competition questions.

Because Bunker had abolished learning competitions a long time ago.

This was the same for Park Mi-hye as well; she didn’t know much about Wen Xishu either, and only did temporary homework upon receiving the task.

She only knew that the second young master of the Wen Family was a madman, but now it seemed... he wasn’t mad, and like Wenren Mirror, possessed much knowledge of the Desire Tower World.

The difficulty level of early student questions in the Bunker was very high because among the earliest Bunker entrants, there was a man named Mr. Jin, a genuine Longxia person.

He was as renowned as Albert Napolitano. Later, he seemed to have gone to the Elder Council and became mysterious.

It was also due to Mr. Jin that the language of the Bunker was not Italian but Longxia language. This was why everyone spoke the same language.

Early on, Mr. Jin unified regulations, language, Bunker currency, and Bunker culture through his powerful strength.

But, there’s one thing, Longxia People possess incredibly strong learning abilities.

They weren’t satisfied with ordinary practice questions and began solving higher-level questions, which were competition questions.

The most absurd was the passion for academic excellence engraved in the bones of Longxia People, leading to exceptionally high study intensity for their children.

Exams were too difficult, benefiting only the few who could solve them. And various high-level recruitment positions were certainly selected from the top academic performers.

Indeed, it’s not about scarcity but inequality. So under collective protest, the difficulty of Bunker’s various exam questions was significantly lowered, from the standard difficulty of Longxia’s Huanggang level to the easy difficulty of Free Country’s joyful education level.

All kinds of Hell-level practice question competitions were also abolished.

Of course, another main reason for this surreal reality was — the Bunker doesn’t require high cultural standards. The core requirement of the Bunker is to cultivate people who can explore the Three Towers.

In Park Mi-hye’s view, Wen Xishu’s generation couldn’t possibly access such obscure knowledge, which must have been learned outside the Bunker, from the Three-Tower World.

Her fear towards Wen Xishu grew deeper inside, indicating Wen Xishu’s exploration of the Three Towers had begun very early.

”You need to observe the study room’s structure, consider the dialogue of the monster when it appeared, and... that piece of women’s clothing and the music from the music box to make a comprehensive judgment.”

”The music box is not something that needs to be purified, because it’s merely used to cover the screams of the girl when she was harmed.”

”Its existence doesn’t possess origin-tied significance.”

Wen Xishu was looking at the problem with the answer in mind, saying:

”The object that truly needs purification is the certificate we overlooked initially.”

Actually, the first time everyone entered, they noticed several elements like —

The room contained a pen holder, trophies, many books on the bookshelf, the study desk, office desk, chairs, certificates, music box...

Park Mi-hye and Zheng Zai seemed to have guessed something.

Wen Xishu nodded and said:

”This child came here for tutoring and was harmed, the fundamental reason being her parents hoped she could win an award.”

”For her, it’s a certificate laden with sins. It’s a product of vanity. It’s also the source of her suffering.”

Looking at the problem with the answer in mind felt inexplicably satisfying, and this time Wen Xishu didn’t play the ”who will sacrifice” game.

He walked towards the certificate himself, full of confidence. But no matter what, in Park Mi-hye’s eyes, this scene still seemed somewhat crazy.

Is he truly not doubting his judgment... at all?

Yes, Wen Xishu completely trusted his judgment because he had already cleared the hidden task in the Desire Tower.

[This item contains unresolved sins, are you sure you want to purify it?]

Wen Xishu did not hesitate and chose to purify.

When his hand touched the certificate, Park Mi-hye almost couldn’t bear to watch.

However, Zheng Zai’s eyes gleamed, seeming to see Wen Xishu anew. His admiration deepened.

No black smoke appeared, nor did any monster appear, and the music box did not start playing.

Everything was incredibly calm. Until a prompt appeared in everyone’s mind.

[Someone in your team has solved the riddle, and you are about to proceed to the next room.]
