Three Towers Game

Zhou Fei’s file wasn’t thick, with nothing particularly special. Wen Xishu had also brought Britney’s file.

He read quickly, almost just glanced over it, and remembered the contents. But he still tore out a key page from the file, then put the file back in its place.

After doing all this, Wen Xishu began moving towards the Moderate Illness Area.

First, he used Zhou Fei to interpret the rules, creating a small loophole, as Zhou Fei’s ability could introduce a margin of error in the rules according to his own will.

Afterwards, Wen Xishu switched to Chris.

For one, Wen Xishu needed to use Chris’s body to deal with the guards, and secondly, he had to explain some things to Zhou Fei.

”I... shouldn’t I be in the archive room? How did you switch to Chris here?” Zhou Fei said.

At this moment, Zhou Fei and Wen Xishu had already reached the first floor of the ward, preparing to explore the route to the Moderate Illness Area.

Wen Xishu said:

”Time is indeed tight. While the Good People are still attracted by the delicious food, we have to hurry. As for the files... I’ve already looked at them.”

”The rules of the Moderate Illness Area have been basically figured out. Before heading to the Moderate Illness Area... to prevent some Good People from returning, I have to switch to Chris. Although it’s unlikely for them to return this early, I have to be cautious.”

Zhou Fei understood that Wen Xishu was worried that a fight might happen.

However, in the Moderate Illness Area, all the Good People had been transferred. Only those who hadn’t completed their transformation were still lying in the wards.

Wen Xishu thought even further.

Not long ago, he had resolved several guards in the Severe Illness Area by force.

He was swift and clean, making it so that the guards had no time to react before they fell to the ground.

Wen Xishu dared to do this because he was sure that these Good People shared certain sensations, but definitely not pain.

On the battlefield, sharing pain is extremely fatal. If someone in your unit gets slashed, and the entire unit grimaces in pain, such a setup would inevitably lead to defeat.

However, out of caution, Wen Xishu still chose Chris to pave the way, with Zhou Fei following behind.

Of course, the second purpose of doing so was to tell Zhou Fei the truth of what he had experienced.

”Let’s talk while we walk, Zhou Fei, everything you’ve been through... has been overturned.”

Zhou Fei was silent for two seconds before following up:

”Tell me, I want to know the truth.”

Wen Xishu said:

”To prevent you from not believing, I tore a page from the file. I can show it to you later when we get out.”

”Next, I’ll briefly tell you what kind of world you live in. What your experiences have truly been like.”

If they could find memories that even Zhou Fei was unaware of, could they unlock Zhou Fei’s sixth-stage skill?

This is what Wen Xishu wanted to test.

And what Wen Xishu narrated next indeed overturned Zhou Fei’s understanding.

...

...

”Let’s start with the place where you live. This Magic City is far more terrifying than I imagined.”

”By all accounts, the time node I should appear at is shortly after the apocalypse, before which... humanity at least wasn’t being enslaved on a large scale.”

”But I was wrong. Two constellations had already set their sights on certain cities... so that not long after the apocalypse began, these cities became complete playgrounds for monsters.”

”Humans aren’t even aware that they are no longer the owners of this city, or even if they realize it, they are powerless.”

Back then in Jicheng, An Rongzai, to gain power to survive the apocalypse, bowed and scraped to the constellations Scorpio and Pisces.

In fact, the leadership of the Magic City did the same.

From the very beginning, the Magic City was watched over because its economy was highly prosperous and developed. The more such a place is, the more twisted souls it hides.

And those twisted souls, after the apocalypse came, became a delicacy.

The original words in the file were like this—

”Our rare species, elite species, began slowly occupying human bodies, but due to the proposed harmonious coexistence, we couldn’t expand.”

”But we are strong enough to make humans constantly feel terrified. And with the transfer of that person’s attention to other cities, another person’s proposition was expansion and conquest... we began to continuously invade human bodies.”

”We even blatantly opened the Good People Hall.”

”The initial purpose of the Good People Hall was to tame those rebellious spirits. Some humans would always say ’those not of our kin are sure to have a different heart’, and some humans would try to destroy the impression other humans have of us.”

”We adopted a mechanism of reward for reporting, allowing humans to kill each other, as they began to report the wicked around them.”

”Under such a mechanism, the aggressiveness of humans was quickly eliminated, and even if there were still some aggression, it would only be directed at themselves.”

”Either become a Good Person or a kind person...”

”The emergence of the Good People Hall made all humans in the Magic City become friendly and harmonious, facilitating our management.”

”However, there were some special beings whose parasitic process was very slow.”

This was the story of Magic City’s background that Wen Xishu learned from the files.

In simple terms, two constellations were involved.

At first, the two constellations were collaborating, with Constellation A responsible for conquest and expansion, and Constellation B responsible for maintaining stability.
