Three Towers Game

Chapter 140: After modification: Chapter 77 Brothers (10,000-word Chapter)

An Jincheng was stunned:

”What do you mean? If I’m not An Zhenqi, who else could be?”

Wen Xishu said:

”Your grandfather’s two most beloved grandchildren are you, the youngest of the family, and An Youxuan, the eldest of the family.”

”When you saw that the sacrifice must be the most beloved blood relative, you thought of one possibility—your brother An Youxuan would be chosen by your grandfather as the ’sacrifice.’”

An Jincheng couldn’t express his shock with words anymore. How did this person know even such a secret?

Wen Xishu answered one of An Jincheng’s doubts first.

”The appearance of Scorpio is a miracle for your grandfather to step into evolution.”

”But you have your own miracle, and that’s me.”

Wen Xishu continued:

”You don’t possess the trait of greed. Your generosity was never reversed by this building. You disguise greed, but in reality, you are naturally generous.”

In the barrage, in An Jincheng’s memory, when he read the description of the sacrifice...

At that moment, the first person An Jincheng thought of was his brother.

Those emotions flashed by, replaced by determination, but all of this was captured by the empathetic Wen Xishu.

It was also at that moment that Wen Xishu realized An Jincheng was not a spoiled second-generation rich kid.

An Jincheng’s entire persona was a layer of disguise.

Now, Wen Xishu had completely figured out the entire story:

One day, An Rongzai encountered Scorpio. If An Rongzai completed Scorpio’s game, he could evolve, perhaps becoming as strong as Jack, Tang Rui, and the others.

But this game required a sacrifice. The sacrifice needed six non-blood relatives who had traits of the seven sins as sacrifices, and one blood relative, the one he couldn’t bear to part with as the core of the array.

Originally, Wen Xishu thought this person was An Jincheng.

But as he touched the barrage, he discovered An Jincheng’s inner determination.

This youngest son intended to die for his brother.

Honestly, such a plot indeed exists, but happening in a wealthy family greatly surprised Wen Xishu.

This should have been a completely twisted, dark story.

”Hah, what makes you think I’m not greedy? No person isn’t greedy! Don’t I love money? Don’t I love women? Don’t I lust for power?” An Jincheng retorted.

Wen Xishu didn’t deny it; greed can be projected onto various aspects.

”Greed for family affection can indeed be considered greed, but it’s not the greed required by this array.”

Wen Xishu decided to delve into more about the An Family brothers.

He realized one thing.

When Scorpio tempted An Rongzai, Scorpio mentioned he had made a bet with Gemini.

In other words, Gemini had participated too.

And the characteristic of Gemini, if Wen Xishu guessed correctly, is that in a certain area, there are two people who admire and support each other.

These two people both have the qualification of the eerie level. Only then can it make sense.

How could an ordinary person rely on other ordinary people and evolve into a powerful monster?

Perhaps the core sacrifice was fundamentally someone qualified to become a monster.

Maybe... this was a showdown between Gemini and Scorpio.

In Wen Xishu’s view, the people chosen by Gemini wouldn’t be the comedian He Taiping or the novelist Yin Junchi.

These two also have the eerie qualification, but they don’t align with Wen Xishu’s conjectured standards for Gemini’s other chosen ones.

The novelists and comedians don’t even know each other.

Now, having learned that An Jincheng was willing to die for his brother... Wen Xishu suddenly had clarity.

”Your brother, An Youxuan, will die soon. Everything you have done is in vain. Your disguise is useless.”

”The greed in your heart is not the greed required by this array. You broke your usual disguise by pretending to be generous... but you can’t fool your grandfather. He won’t spare either of you brothers.”

”In the latter part of the Reversal Seven Plan, all six sacrifices will die, and the owner of 42-7, the one called An Zhenqi, is destined not to be you, but your brother.”

Every word Wen Xishu said was a guess, but each sentence precisely made An Jincheng feel pain.

Anger, fear, and sadness were all amplified at this moment because An Youxuan would become An Zhenqi... to the extreme.

An Jincheng glared at Wen Xishu, his eyes filled with fear and sorrow.

[Impossible, grandfather saw my true thoughts. I meet his standards. I’ve made an agreement with him; don’t touch my brother!]

The mental barrage appeared once again. Wen Xishu touched it again. He wanted to uncover what Desire Tower truly hoped he would achieve.

But this time, with the accumulation of various emotions, the story swept through like a storm. In the depths of the soul, the feelings belonging to the ”fool of the Wen Family” were awakened by the wind and rain.

Unknown timeline. Jicheng, Jicheng Guangyue Kindergarten.

Two children were being beaten by a group of other kids. One child timidly hid behind the other.

The slightly taller child endured the beating from the other kids, protecting the child behind him, his gaze like a wolf’s.

He suddenly went fierce and bit one child’s ear.

The child with the beast-like gaze unleashed terrifying strength, biting off a piece of one child’s ear.

This scene led many children to cry out. They didn’t expect that child to do something so crazy.
