Three Towers Game

Chapter 195: Chapter 93: The Easiest Invitation to Obtain

Wen Xishu’s concerns were correct. Even without intelligence, purely being some test product in the TV world might still have an evasion mechanism.

If the trap is too direct, it will only cause the monsters to avoid it, and it won’t count as a kill.

Because of this, Wen Xishu manipulated the joystick on the controller, making Zheng Zai crouch down, then gently pressed a certain button.

Zheng Zai began to lightly tap the bridge surface with a wrench.

A magical scene unfolded.

With extremely gentle taps, the parts of the bridge tread upon started to repair bit by bit. But really, just a tiny bit.

Those steel bars and concrete that had fallen into the sea seemed to reverse time and slowly reassemble back to their original positions.

Wen Xishu never hit too hard, because he had to make sure not to be too forceful and completely restore the bridge.

He needed to find a time point to stop, leaving the repair progress at a critical state of near collapse.

Zheng Zai watched, stunned:

”This wrench... can be used like this?”

Originally, he thought the wrench’s ability was to make items new, but now he realized it wasn’t; the wrench’s ability was to restore items to their best state.

In other words, a thoroughly destroyed item could, via the wrench, be gradually restored to a state of critical damage.

However, the bridge was a gigantic, superstructure that could be divided into multiple separate objects.

Therefore, Wen Xishu noticed that Zheng Zai’s wrench had a range. The range was roughly a circular area with a radius of four meters centered on Zheng Zai.

After roughly five minutes, Wen Xishu had already, through Zheng Zai, filled in the tread upon areas of the bridge...

But this area was extremely fragile; if it suffered any significant impact, it would collapse again.

However, this was exactly what Wen Xishu was aiming for.

”Time is tight, let’s hurry and try to create more traps. Also, each trap must be spaced far enough apart.”

If not spaced far enough, there was a high possibility that one of Zheng Zai’s seismic actions could cause a chain reaction leading to the collapse of the road surface.

Zheng Zai said:

”Alright! It’s all up to you!”

At this moment, Zheng Zai and Wen Xishu were like two players with perfect coordination. Although Zheng Zai was being fully controlled by Wen Xishu throughout, after releasing seismic actions multiple times and experiencing the power of these skills firsthand as the controlled person, he would appropriately give Wen Xishu some strength feedback.

Wen Xishu then tried to adjust the skill power by reducing the pressure on the buttons.

Their cooperation was seamless. The production time for the second trap was shortened by forty seconds compared to the first one.

The third trap was shortened by another fifteen seconds based on the second one’s time.

They were getting faster and smoother.

Outside the TV, Wang Ying and Aspasia felt a surge of envy in their hearts. This was practically a pair of Gemini stars, twins couldn’t be more synchronized than this!

At this moment, both of them admired Zheng Zai and Wen Xishu’s courage and imagination.

Just like that, in a matter of ten minutes, the silhouette of the monsters was already visible two to three hundred meters away.

A dark mass of them was rushing towards Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai.

The two officially stopped creating traps, with two traps in front and two behind.

As the monsters got closer—

The first trap in front took effect, causing the road surface to collapse under the impact of the monsters.

In that instant, dozens of monsters fell directly into the sea due to their slow reaction.

Wen Xishu paid particular attention to the fact that those monsters didn’t even utter a sound before dying.

Their bodies vanished immediately, without any struggle process visible.

It could be seen that the most terrifying thing inside Deceit Tower was the rules themselves; being killed by the rules truly left no opportunity at all.

Yet fortunately, the rules were fair; as long as utilized well, they could achieve the perfect counter-kill. The second trap, the third trap, the fourth trap... all triggered within just a few seconds.

In previous levels, the battles lasted quite a while, but this time it was completely reversed.

After Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai had monotonously tapped the ground and wrenched for nearly twenty minutes, the expected battle ultimately didn’t last even half a minute—

Because, there was no battle at all.

The road surface’s collapses spread continuously under the impact of tens of thousands of mid-tier normal types.

Everything went as Wen Xishu had anticipated. The monsters would avoid the pits they saw, but the unexpected pit appearances still swallowed up over a hundred monsters into the sea.

Indeed, some monsters avoided the pits or swiftly jumped over them, a few inches away from Wen Xishu.

But that was all. Before the monsters could touch Wen Xishu—the game was already over.

[You successfully demonstrated the value of this item in the post-apocalyptic world. You are about to return to the museum; may you show more items to people. Upon return, your stamina will be restored to fifty percent of the maximum.]

There wasn’t a hidden mission triggered, which came as a slight surprise to Wen Xishu, but successfully using the item and achieving over a hundred kills was worth celebrating.

Zheng Zai yelled excitedly:

”Bro, you were right, indirect kills also count as kills! I get it now, as long as the item is used, and used correctly, showing its valuable side during the monster killing process, that counts as kills!”

”This way, we can challenge using more items that don’t have weapon properties!”

Wen Xishu nodded.

Now thinking about it, that crazy kid Tong Ming, if using the Threadless Knife to attack himself, then restoring his body state before killing enemies, even without using the knife, might count towards the kill count.
