Three Towers Game

Bunker, three days ago.

Wen Xishu’s name disappeared from the Celestial Ladder List, causing many people to panic.

This matter quickly came to the attention of the Elders.

Luo Feng was also considering one thing: if Wen Xishu was dead... what would happen to Albert?

He didn’t think Albert would become disheartened, even though he was a difficult comrade to find.

Albert would only become more maniacal due to losing such a partner.

He would be more eager to climb the tower.

In that case, Albert might very well return the management rights of the bunker to the Five Elders.

Luo Feng, of course, was concerned about power. Not only him, but also William Gordon and Matthew Jones, these three men were all enthusiastic about controlling the bunker.

But thinking about it, Luo Feng still felt a bit ashamed of himself.

Unlike the past, unconsciously, he had come to acknowledge——

Wen Xishu was worth the same attention as Albert.

Such a person, if really dead, would indeed be a loss for the bunker.

...

...

The Elders were indeed composed; although they began to imagine certain things, compared to the people with great emotional swings at the lower levels…

The Elders still chose to watch the situation, without showing any... inclination.

However, the families below the Elders reacted differently.

The Miyamoto Family was praying as a whole, and Miyamoto Yishu was loudly proclaiming at Three Towers Academy: Your Dean Wen is dead, but he’s just a fifty-something-floor failure.

William Hawker was so anxious his head turned white. After all... all his businesses relied on Wen Xishu.

Without Wen Xishu, all his efforts would go to waste.

Of course, Xishu Divine Teaching could be said to turn the tide, with Wen Xiangge relying on his own capability to make everyone believe Wen Xishu would return as a king.

Never doubt the Sect Hierarch, even if the Three Towers Celestial Ladder List malfunctioned, the Sect Hierarch would be fine.

Wen Xiangge appeared very confident, but when alone, he couldn’t help falling into worry.

Two days ago.

The people in the bunker had long been accustomed to Wen Xishu being able to ascend the tower and return on the same day.

Such miracles were still displayed a few days ago.

But now, Wen Xishu hadn’t returned for two days, and his name had been missing from the Celestial Ladder List for two days.

Thinking that Wen Xishu had already sacrificed himself at the Deceit Tower, people grew even more numerous.

Even Wen Xiangge’s appearance was ineffective.

”The Sect Hierarch must be dead, right? Don’t lie to me, Exalted One! Hasn’t the Sect Hierarch already died!”

”The sky is falling! The bunker has no future!”

”Hasn’t returned in two days! Hasn’t returned in two days!”

The followers of Xishu Divine Teaching, faced with collapse.

At Three Towers Academy, the students of Deceit Tower Academy were ridiculed by the students of Desire Tower Academy.

”Without Dean Wen, these people climbing the Deceit Tower will no longer stand at the same level as us, right?”

It was well known, under William Hawker’s influence, the students of Deceit Tower Academy enjoyed treatment above Desire Tower Academy’s nobility.

And William Hawker saw the situation clearly: with Wen Xishu and the old principal working together, in the future, the standing of Deceit Tower and Slaughter Tower would be higher than Desire Tower.

But now…

He was also somewhat lost; if without Wen Xishu, would the general enthusiasm for climbing the Deceit Tower remain high?

One day ago.

Wen Xiangge stayed up all night.

”I am the Exalted One, the Exalted One of Xishu Divine Teaching. If I don’t believe in the Sect Hierarch, how can the followers believe?”

He recited this over a hundred times, and finally, his eyes lit up, he washed his face with cold water to suppress his fatigue.

Returning to that ever-passionate expression of old.

Wen Xiangge looked at his own face in the mirror:

”The Sect Hierarch cannot die, there’s no talk of the Sect Hierarch dying, only ascension, only sanctity!”

”Wen Xiangge, your life needs something to make you willing to risk everything, right!”

”It’s now! It’s now!”

There’s a saying, life’s major choices all carry some gambling nature.

As the most fanatical follower of Xishu Divine Teaching, this Exalted One, decided to gamble it all at this moment.

He spoke incredibly firmly, then he dressed in the ceremonial robe he seldom wore, and put on the High Crown.

Facing the collapse of public emotion, Wen Xiangge walked to the second level of the bunker, the top floor of the Level 6 hospital brought by Wen Xishu.

With a loudspeaker, he shouted:

”The Sect Hierarch isn’t dead! The Sect Hierarch will surely return! I have already received the revelation!”

”The Sect Hierarch is about to bring us yet another round of upgrade for everyone!”

”Everyone, cheer up! Be invigorated! Put away your mourning faces, do you know what you’re doubting?”

”The bunker will last forever! The Sect Hierarch will last forever! If the Sect Hierarch dies, I am willing to follow the Sect Hierarch away! But the Sect Hierarch won’t die! He may return today, maybe tomorrow!”

”Otherwise, I will jump down from here!”

”All followers of Xishu Divine Teaching, look at me! Believe in me! The Sect Hierarch will soon bring abundant rewards, with rewards that will overturn our understanding, and return to the bunker!”

Displaying innate talent of persuasion to the fullest, Wen Xiangge at this moment used an all-consuming method to make everyone believe that Wen Xishu was still alive.

And he indeed did it, as the people’s spirits unexpectedly turned from underwhelming to highly charged because of his gamble!

If the Sect Hierarch isn’t dead, if the Sect Hierarch can still stealth away from the Celestial Ladder List…

Doesn’t that mean that the Sect Hierarch has transcended the Celestial Ladder List?

The Exalted One perhaps lied to us before, but now the Exalted One gambled his life, how could this be false?

The public always believes, those who hold superior lives won’t do something irrational like them.
