Three Towers Game

Chapter 1222: Chapter 383: Three-Tower Company Incident Concludes (Part 2)

From the previous ”it’s hard to say” trifecta to now ”wait a moment...” Wen Xishu found this more fitting. With a competitor, there’s a sense of crisis that really drives the need to lower one’s pride to serve the customers.

Yet Wen Xishu felt it wasn’t the right time yet.

He merely said lightly, ”What am I asking you? Asking poorly, badly asked, better not ask.”

After speaking, Wen Xishu walked through the gate of the Heart Inquiry.

The red Slaughter Head was angry:

”You can explain the Three Towers Company! Laughing is pointless! Your laughter is irritating to death, always unpleasant in different ways!”

The black Deceitful Head said:

”Why are you shouting so loud?”

The white Desireful Head worriedly said:

”He’s already started touching secrets, even becoming... one of those company employees. We have to be careful he doesn’t get tricked.”

The black Deceitful Head was silent for a moment and then said:

”Next time, no laughter, straight to the point!”

...

...

In the chaotic domain, familiar warmth enveloped Wen Xishu once more.

Wen Xishu heard the voice of Heart Inquiry:

[You have once again completed the challenge. Based on your self-assessment, you should be a supporter of Zone A’s strategy. But you chose the Zone C approach of total survival without overtime. Do you have anything to say about this?]

Wen Xishu shrugged:

”Because I calculated it. The calculated result has nothing to do with my character, it’s just the outcome of the calculation.”

It’s strange; the Heart Inquiry always seems to want him to change his self-assessment.

Wen Xishu didn’t consider himself a good person, and he believed his strategy aligned with ”reason.”

Heart Inquiry quickly had a second question.

[Then when you started the second task, entering the real Three-Tower Battlefield, choosing a redemption target instead of a kill target, was that also due to calculation?]

Wen Xishu shook his head:

”Not really. It was because I questioned the Three Towers Company’s system and tried something out. If killing was the best choice and I agreed, I would kill.”

”Alright, as is the old rule, you ask me two, I ask you one.”

”I was labeled a cheater by the Three Towers Company. I find it unreasonable. You should be part of the Three Towers, related to this company, right? I think you should correct this mistake.”

What Wen Xishu truly wanted to ask was if the Three Towers Company knew about his authority.

To this, Heart Inquiry gave an answer.

[Cheater means you’ve violated the foundational laws of the Three Towers, but that is the power you acquired. Although you received this label, the Three Towers cannot punish you. You don’t need to worry about this label.]

[Just like how the tool you obtained this time has become Three Tower universal. You have a special authority which brings variables to the Three Towers, yet the Three Towers itself anticipates variables.]

The roll of the Mad Dice led Wen Xishu to acquire the Master Lingqing’s talisman, turning it ”Three Tower universal.”

All this was not hidden from the Three Towers.

But these words made Wen Xishu confident that the Three Towers did not oppose ”external forces.”

He felt slightly relieved, as if he had received official support for his hacks.

But then, thinking again, felt slightly uneasy.

[The next question concerns your authority. The significance of Heart Inquiry is to let you receive rewards; this time you will get dual rewards, one from your Deceit Tower experience and one from the Three Towers Company.]

[You have a very interesting authority, allowing you to obtain sequences of corresponding numbers across the three tower systems or let items remove tower system restrictions.]

[Your performance is excellent, and next there will be a choice. Do you desire direct access to future information or crave to rectify past inadequacies?]

Wen Xishu thought for a moment and replied:

”For now, let’s choose to rectify past inadequacies.”

[The next question also relates to the rewards you obtained. During the job assessment in the Three Towers Company, you met many minor characters. Let’s assume if one minor character’s fate is death, but you can use part of the authority diluted from the Three Towers Company to alter their fate, are you willing to change it?]

”Not willing.” Wen Xishu thought Tang Zhe left a good impression, as did Shen Changfeng, Li Weiwei, and even some enemies.

But these people are not worth giving up his interests, especially since with these interests, he can do more things.

[Your answer is remarkably decisive but always seems somewhat lacking in candor. The final question, who would you most hope to encounter on the Three-Tower Battlefield?]

Wen Xishu didn’t feel he was being insincere. However, he also didn’t argue, always feeling that the final question seemed more like a reward.

It’s quite possible that the location of the next field operation task would encounter the person he most wants to meet.

But who is this person?

Recalling many journeys, Wen Xishu suddenly had a sense of guilt.

He seemed to have never responded to Tang Rui’s letter. He thought it over and realized it’s something he should do.

Of course, he also remembered he needed to convey some messages for Ding Dong.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t figure out the depth of Qilin’s situation now.

”Tang Rui, if I head to the Three-Tower Battlefield again, I hope to encounter him.”

[You have answered all the questions; look forward to your next adventure.]

The Heart Inquiry ended.

Wen Xishu checked his panel, discovering that levels, slots, and items hadn’t changed at all.

The Three Towers Company didn’t seem to belong to the Deceit Tower.

The Anti-Magic Value hadn’t changed either.

But soon, he found himself with two new items.

The first item was naturally the Master Lingqing’s talisman, capable of releasing the Celestial Kingdom of the Goddess of Suffering and Lian King’s Reincarnation’s cut-down versions, Three Tower universal.

The second item was the official version of the Three Towers Company employee badge.

This item surprisingly had attributes—

Anti-Magic Value increased by ten percent. Randomly negate one sequence or rune’s negative effect.

(Currently, the favorable impression decrease effect when Realm of Only Me is not yet activated has been cleared.)

Wen Xishu wasn’t concerned about the removal of this negative effect, but he was quite pleased with the ten percent increase in Anti-Magic Value.

This badge was certainly a good item; originally badges had no attributes, but due to his choice of ’no’ on the second-to-last question, the badge acquired additional attributes.

Lastly, Wen Xishu discovered a surprise.

The Weird Sequence 37·Spiritual Bullet Screen had undergone a change. Specifically, it gained a suffix, which was very simple and straightforward.

The current name of the sequence is—

Weird Sequence 37·Spiritual Bullet Screen (Three Phase version).

There’s no extra explanation, sequence’s profound meaning attribute, regular attribute remained unchanged.

Yet Wen Xishu knew that, even without the Three Phase attribute, his Weird Sequence was also Three Tower universal now.

He understood, if he chose to access future information instead of rectifying the past, he would likely get three identical numbered sequences.

If he chose to rectify the past, it meant turning a sequence into Three Tower universal.

This is equivalent to transforming the Weird Sequence into a Three Tower Sequence.

This reward upgrade isn’t insignificant. However, it’s largely thanks to the Mad Dice.

”Not bad. Once more in the three thousand worlds, also transforming Ultimate Kick into Three Tower universal, then my dependency on Three Phases can drastically decrease.”

Though there wasn’t any attribute enhancement, Wen Xishu was still quite satisfied with the gains this time.

...

...

Bunker.

Upon returning to the bunker, Wen Xishu immediately started drawing.

He didn’t stop to rest but quickly sketched out the ”Yellow Springs,” currently dominating in Hujiang according to Xiaotong and Master Lingqing.

Afterward, Wen Xishu annotated much information about Yellow Springs.

He instructed the Academy Spirit to convey this information to the principal and Xun Hui.

”Inform the principal and senior Xun Hui that there should be a way to kill him, at least in the next ten tower climbs, kill every time we meet.”

The Academy Spirit said:

”Could it be that he caused you trouble in the Deceit Tower? You seem very resentful of him.”

Wen Xishu shook his head:

”No, he troubled my friends. Of course, he is indeed a troublesome enemy. Just in time, I can verify how strong the Slaughter Tower’s effect of severing fortune really is.”

Wen Xishu already thought of it; next time, if heading to the Three-Tower Battlefield, having the chance to contact Morioka Hitomi and others, he can obtain experimental data.

The importance of the Slaughter Tower is actually quite high, Wen Xishu thinks it’s at least comparable to the Deceit Tower, but if the experimental effect is great, undoubtedly, the significance of the Slaughter Tower can be enhanced again.

He’s very interested in this experiment and is curious, on the Three-Tower Battlefield, the Yellow Springs that caused trouble to Morioka Hitomi and Xiaoxing...

What would it be like for the old principal to deal with?

Could the old principal’s strength, once entering the Three-Tower Battlefield, slaughter everywhere?

After the Academy Spirit left, Wen Xishu began examining his item column.

He decided to embark on the third Slaughter Tower journey, preparing to help fulfill a promise.
