Three Towers Game

The assassins initially pondered Wen Xishu’s question but didn’t think in the direction of Destructive.

After all, in their understanding, there was no mention of a Destructive.

On the assassin rankings, there were indeed some who were quite deranged. They thought of them as fellow assassins.

Fortunately, Wen Xishu added:

”Among the people you’ve encountered, have you ever felt... deceived?”

”Perhaps this person didn’t seem very evil but was good at deception, possibly looking harmless. If you think about it carefully, has anyone been pushing you forward?”

”How exactly did all of you get caught?”

”Those Ark people, whether Renault or Von Neumann, logically should have no grievances with any of you.”

After this reminder, Canon suddenly remembered:

”I encountered someone who gave me an order to kill a person named Charles.”

”Because of this person, I ended up being captured by Renault. My method of killing is witchcraft, which is somewhat renowned in the industry. So many times, people can recognize the dead targets as my work.”

Cannon, hearing what Canon said, also recalled some odd points:

”I was also targeted because I received an order. My target was a girl in a wheelchair, with disabled legs but seemingly the daughter of a super-rich merchant. I didn’t investigate her background, but since I’ve previously killed warlords, I thought, killing a merchant’s daughter wouldn’t matter.”

”But my mission failed. I didn’t expect that place to have military-base-level defenses.”

”And soon, the arms merchants were being questioned, and I was targeted by Von Neumann.”

Similarly, Shadow and Night Demon had similar experiences.

They all received a mission to assassinate a target but soon began to get unlucky and were therefore targeted.

”Do you know the name?” Wen Xishu asked.

”We don’t know the employer’s name,” Cannon shook his head.

Night Demon added:

”It was all through the dark web. The employer wouldn’t show up, but would offer a deposit. It’s almost impossible to trace the source of funds.”

The trail went cold.

But without a doubt, this employer was quite a thrill-seeker. This aligns with Wen Xishu’s judgment of a Destructive.

First——

Players climbing the tower can’t hit people, but the assassins were not players, seen as NPCs by the tower climbers.

Using the dark web to hire assassins indeed avoids troubles.

Secondly, the employer must be very familiar with the Ark and the assassins, possibly having figured everything out through loops.

Finally, by placing orders, he made the assassins come into conflict with the Ark’s masters.

No need to question why he can afford to hire these top assassins, or why he dares to provoke those monstrous ability users of the Ark...

Because the cycle of the Destructive would only end in the hands of the players.

Their every death was a new round of amusement.

Possibly, even Zoe from the investigation bureau was being toyed with by the Destructive, otherwise, Wen Xishu dared not imagine...

Why would several assassins be arranged to assassinate someone like Cain, a top player in the Red House?

”Do you remember the time?” Wen Xishu asked.

The assassins quickly provided the time, finding out that the time points were surprisingly consistent.

They all realized something was wrong.

”So... we were all calculated by some guy.”

After reading this, Wen Xishu became even more convinced that this was indeed the Destructive.

However, the information chain had already broken, and he had to go to the Desire Tower World himself to find this guy.

Having set the goal, Wen Xishu stopped hesitating.

To go into the Desire Tower without the Death Feather Pen and to achieve records in the Deceit Tower was certainly impossible.

But for someone with the Compass and Three-phase Power like him, finding a Destructive was a breeze.

”I must go now, everyone. I have completed my task here. I will help you solve the person who toyed with you.”

”Your lives have no regrets anymore, so in this end time, please live well.”

It actually holds no meaning.

These words were not meant for the real people in the Desire Tower, but for the obsessions.

Yet Wen Xishu felt these obsessions were quite real.

After speaking, he activated the invitation, ready to plunge into the Desire Tower.

Unexpectedly, a pleasant surprise arrived at this moment, stunning Wen Xishu.

[Deceit Tower level achieved a perfect ending, and on activating the invitation to transition towers, you will gain corresponding support following attribute fulfillment.]

[Current Luck Value has reached the standard.]

[Support One: You can freely choose characters who died in the apocalypse without significantly impacting history as the character for this Desire Tower journey. If you choose this option, the character’s interpersonal relations and memories will be fully inherited, abilities remain unaffected, and all valuable character information and locations in the current Desire Tower scenario will be unlocked.]

[Support Two: Choose to proceed to the Desire Tower with your current identity, unlocking all valuable character information and locations in the current Desire Tower scenario. You can also specify a single target to gain initial favor.]

Wen Xishu truly hadn’t expected this invitation to have such a surprise.

”I see, I understand.”

The scene around Wen Xishu was already beginning to change, and he had to make a quick decision.

Should he perform authentically, exploring the Desire Tower as Wen Xishu, or traverse as a minor character?

”The Desire Tower can alter the Deceit Tower. If an ability user is made happy in the Desire Tower, the Deceit Tower will undergo corresponding changes.”
