Three Towers Game

Chapter 1314: Chapter 416: The Master of the Pen Enigma

The gourmet’s eyes were pierced, and his hair began to grow recklessly.

Before long, the gourmet stopped moving, turning from exhaustion to complete death.

And with the gourmet’s death, the vampire-like butler with red eyes was immediately frightened and began to flee.

As for ”Churen Mei”, she quickly left as well, and the hair, just like when dealing with Sean, swiftly devoured the gourmet clean and then, like writhing black liquid, disappeared into the cracks in the ground.

The entire dining room became silent.

At this moment, Wen Xishu received a new text prompt.

[Not bad, you’re an interesting adventurer. Your performance is excellent, though it’s a pity the gourmet is gone, there will soon be new monsters appearing. After all, such a lovely house must have a powerful master.]

[From now on, you have gained super stamina immune to hunger and thirst. Work hard, maybe you can bring them back to your original position.]

[Current score: 35 points. You can move freely.]

Not bad, Wen Xishu gained 15 points this time.

He had previously gained a total of only twenty points.

Not far from 60 points.

Reid didn’t expect Wen Xishu to have such means.

”All along this journey, I relied entirely on you. I wasn’t wrong about you, but I don’t know if we can get out of here. If we can, I will certainly repay you in the future.”

Wen Xishu waved his hand:

”We both have the same things, don’t say such formal words. Right now, we need to find some clues.”

”In Pig the Third’s house, I heard the sound of cries, which makes me feel it’s hiding clues about the secrets of Pen Town.”

”Now, the house we’ve come to in theory should also have clues.”

”Let’s take a look.”

Wen Xishu headed toward the study, located on the second floor, needing to pass through a spiral staircase.

Reid had no objections; he wanted to contribute but knew he wasn’t as smart as Wen Xishu, and the smart and correct approach was to listen to Wen Xishu, not to disagree or cause trouble.

This made Wen Xishu have a good impression of Reid.

Although he wasn’t sure how strong Reid’s ability to control flames was, he thought that anyone marked by Leon must be very capable.

The door to the study was ajar. Inside, there were more than ten lamps lit, making it particularly bright.

Most of these books were cookbooks, describing the methods of cooking various monsters.

But if you looked closely, you would find that although the books were thick, the majority of the pages in many books were blank, with only a few hundred words.

It’s like in a game, when you obtain a book and open it to find often there’s only a few hundred words of content.

But judging by the illustrations, it seems like a very thick book.

Wen Xishu avoided these seemingly ornate books and quickly found an old notebook on a corner shelf.

He opened the notebook, and there was little text inside.

”I tried it, it’s true, the pen... has been given an eerie power. But I tried letting others write, but it didn’t show its power.

Only when I write with that pen does it create such a house, where I wrote the fearful character, Hannibal. I let him have a vampire butler.

All of this came true. I want to know its reaction after seeing these things.

I also wondered if the specialty isn’t the pen but me. But after changing the pen... I also lost my ability.”

That’s it.

Wen Xishu furrowed his brows, Reid saw the entire content too.

Reid said:

”This... is indeed different from the previous books.”

”By the way, this place is called Pen Town, and it mentions a magical pen.”

”But unfortunately, the clues here are too few.”

Wen Xishu also knew that Pen Town, Pen Town, naturally relates to pens.

He felt that there’s a high-authority presence living here.

There’s an object here—a pen.

There’s also a powerful master—the Master of the Pen.

They seem to echo each other; when others use the pen, it doesn’t work.

If the Master of the Pen uses another pen, it also doesn’t work.

It seems like the various fairy tales and movie creatures here...

All were written by the Master of the Pen using this pen.

This kind of thing... must be something a constellation could do?

Phoenix, Sirius, Qilin...

These are the minor constellations Wen Xishu has encountered so far.

Perhaps it’s Heracles or Lyra?

His mind was flooded with thoughts, and he sensed that even for a constellation, this seems a bit too freaky.

[Oh, you discovered the secret of the house so quickly, that’s great, but don’t you think the night is so long, you should get some sleep? Sleep in the right place. The new master of the house likes to roam around, so don’t let it meet you.]

Tiredness begins to emerge.

After the feeling of hunger and thirst ended, the next powerful sensory torture for the two was tiredness.

Sleepiness so strong that as soon as Wen Xishu closed his eyes, he could fall asleep. Suddenly, he slapped Reid:

”Don’t sleep here! Reid!”

Slap! The crisp sound of a slap echoed on Reid’s face, but he didn’t immediately wake up, only nodded in a daze.

Sleepiness is scarier than thirst or hunger, because the brain is in a state of extreme desire to stop working and rest.

Fortunately, both of them had strong willpower. Wen Xishu even went so far as to take out the Scorpion Knife and slash his own arm.
