Three Towers Game

Chapter 1330: Chapter 422: Pen Town Exploration Concludes

The mission is nearing its end, and Wen Xishu felt the pen in his hand trembling slightly.

Perhaps it didn’t want to part with its master, Mosen.

Mosen smiled and said:

”I’m a bit tired, need a break. Hope I hear good news from you.”

Wen Xishu safely stored away the pen and the special invitation; he also received a prompt, indicating the mission’s completion.

Then, Wen Xishu’s consciousness experienced a familiar dizziness.

Mosen sat back down, switched to an ordinary pen, and began writing silently.

...

...

Land of Reception.

The three-headed guide waited respectfully, the black Deceitful Head sycophantically said:

”Sir, you’re incredible; it’s so rare for anyone to return from Pen Town, congratulations.”

This time, Wen Xishu officially passed the sixty-sixth floor.

He said:

”I was quite lucky; who would have thought the master of Pen Town turns out to be my fellow villager? It feels like a plot out of an exciting story. But maybe it’s not me seeking the answers; rather, the answers seeking me.”

Wen Xishu hadn’t fully read Mosen’s works and didn’t know exactly how Mosen depicted everything. Perhaps Mosen longed to transmigrate back himself, but ultimately, it was him, another Transmigrator, who arrived.

In any case, he acquired a very remarkable pen.

Wen Xishu asked:

”Do you have anything for me?”

The three heads of the guide were momentarily left speechless.

They were no longer in charge of the reward aspect; honestly, there wasn’t much they could offer Wen Xishu.

Last time, they provided a forced exit from the tower, which was already a significant ”contribution”.

Wen Xishu didn’t continue to pressure them, knowing not to squeeze too hard.

He just nodded and prepared to head to the Heart Inquiry.

But just as his figure was about to disappear through the door, the white Desirous Head said:

”I can offer you a treasure, but this treasure is a one-time consumable, to be honest, I would’ve thought to give you something like this on the eightieth floor of Deceit Tower.”

”But... we don’t know what secret you gained in Pen Town, maybe you are about to take action, so... so it’s not a bad thing to give you this, perhaps it can help.”

The white head was responsible for rewards from the Desire Tower, and Wen Xishu was somewhat curious if this item was related to the Desire Tower.

He asked:

”What is it?”

The white Desirous Head handed a key to Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu asked:

”Which door does this open?”

In the Land of Reception, there were many doors and clocks.

Wen Xishu guessed that this key was probably for one of the doors.

The black Deceitful Head and the red Slaughter Head were both surprised by the generosity of the white Desirous Head.

The white one pointed to a door at the edge, a door obscured by more than a dozen clocks, and Wen Xishu had never really paid attention to it.

”Where does this door lead when opened?” Wen Xishu asked.

The white Desirous Head replied:

”The key can be used twice; after two uses, this door will disappear. As for where it leads, I don’t know either, because the destination is uncertain. However, through this door, you can travel to the latest timeline in the Three-Tower World and meet the most important figures.”

Wen Xishu instinctively frowned:

”It wouldn’t be the star signs, would it?”

The three heads replied:

”Maybe.”

”It could be.”

”Should be possible.”

Wen Xishu felt a familiar sensation.

”Should I open this door now?”

”If I undergo the Heart Inquiry now, upon completion, I’d likely return to minimum guaranteed, right?”

The three heads responded:

”That’s right.”

”No mistake.”

”Correct indeed.”

To avoid annoying Wen Xishu with their repetitive phrasing, the black Deceitful Head added:

”Currently, you really can only enter the Land of Reception after completing a challenge. Unfortunately, if you want to try opening the door now to see what’s beyond...”

”You can do so now, but if you proceed with the Heart Inquiry, you’ll need to wait until after the next challenge.”

”This door is most likely to guide you towards one of the star signs, but exactly which one depends on luck. Yet, it’s not absolute, it could also be other existences.”

”If any of your future actions require reinforcement, and you’re about to decide on that action, it might be worth trying.”

Wen Xishu finally refrained from getting angry.

He quickly made a decision not to enter the door yet.

Changing the zodiac curse indeed requires help from the star signs.

But right now, Taurus, Libra, and Aquarius are on bad terms with him.

Aries is hard to read, Pisces is unpredictable, Scorpio is elusive, and Lion indistinct.

He should be on good terms with Virgin.

Sagittarius and Gemini are considered allies.

Capricorn and Cancer are too mysterious, considered strangers.

The chances of encountering allies after entering the door are too low.

So Wen Xishu gave up.

He decided to wait a little longer.

Without further thought, Wen Xishu entered the Heart Inquiry.

...

...

In the chaotic realm, there was the same warmth as before.

Wen Xishu heard that familiar voice.

[Let’s continue from the last question. You’ve become much more determined, and a lot more honest. The final question, if those flowers you’ve nurtured someday must wither and become sacrifices, would you sacrifice them?]

Wen Xishu now already understood what this question meant.

After some thought, he said:

”I will do everything in my power to prevent such a scene from occurring, truly doing everything possible to the best of my ability. That’s my answer, don’t ask me again what if doing everything still can’t avoid it, and don’t continue to harp on this question.”

The Heart Inquiry was silent for a brief moment before a voice emerged:

[This might be the best answer. Now, the next question: if you have the power to create this sequence, what would you write down? Wealth? Power? Strength?]
