Three Towers Game

Chapter 1447: Chapter 464: Gemini’s Fate

Bunker.

When Wen Xishu returned to the bunker, he didn’t feel tired, but rather relaxed.

Against Hunter City’s legendary hunter Qing, Wen Xishu was severely injured; although he recovered quickly, he hadn’t completely healed.

However, after entering the Deceit Tower and then returning to the bunker...

He felt physically much better.

Because no matter how battered you get in the Three Towers, you instantly recover upon returning to the bunker. Using this rule, Wen Xishu finally rid himself of the post-battle injuries from his fight with Qing.

”Dean, you’re back.” The Academy Spirit was very happy.

The service was as considerate as ever. Wen Xishu felt a sense of ”coming home” with this routine.

After drinking the tea brewed by the Academy Spirit, it said:

”The school’s admissions office says that next semester there will be many students at Deceit Tower Academy. Dean, your recent battle has made many students in the Slaughter Tower want to transfer to the Deceit Tower.”

For Slaughter Tower students, fighting prowess is the best advertisement. Wen Xishu’s recent battle demonstrated strength surpassing many experts on the Celestial Ladder List.

Wen Xishu said:

”You and the school’s teachers can handle these matters. Has the principal returned?”

”The principal is waiting for you. The bunker is quite lively this time, everyone seems to have arranged to gather together.”

The Academy Spirit naturally knew Wen Xishu’s friends.

The bunker was different now, with Nissen, Yue Yun, Zheng Zai, Ah Miao, William Hawker... and the old principal Xun Hui and Wenren Mirror, all present in the bunker.

Everything was just right.

Wen Xishu happened to want to see the principal.

”I’ll go over right now.”

The Academy Spirit didn’t ask more, just opened the door for Wen Xishu:

”They’re in the usual place.”

...

...

Desire Tower, Garden Forbidden Land.

When Wen Xishu arrived, Albert and Wenren Mirror were playing chess.

Xun Hui was watching from the side.

”Ha ha ha ha, good, good, you’re here.” Albert quickly noticed Wen Xishu’s arrival.

The old principal laughed heartily, for he had fully understood the recent events.

He was delighted at Wen Xishu’s rapid progress.

Unlike others, the old principal knew very well that Wen Xishu’s ”numeric” foundation was very low. Being able to defeat Qing and execute a battle that surprised the Five Elders...

It must have been due to an outburst.

In other words, Wen Xishu possessed a series of methods to amplify basic values.

This was very good.

If Wen Xishu’s foundational values increase in the future, his upper limit would be immeasurable.

Another thing that pleased Albert was his journey to the Slaughter Tower, returning to the bunker, and resolving the Power of Destruction, resulting in further understanding.

Unlike Sagittarius’ insights, Albert is an absolute genius.

His combat talent is almost unparalleled. In the Slaughter Tower, Albert not only gained insights but also comprehended the Power of Destruction.

Although it cannot be like the Destruction God, his level is already not inferior to Qing, who attempted to assassinate Wen Xishu.

”Principal, are you... alright?” Wen Xishu was still very concerned.

After all, he knew better than anyone how troublesome the Power of Destruction was; he almost died from that power.

Albert waved his hand:

”I’m fine now. I couldn’t withstand such power; it was completely indefensible. Only by using the rules of the bunker and the Three Towers could this power be dispelled.”

”However, although I can’t fend it off, I can imitate it. I seem to have comprehended this power, and thanks to you, I’ve found new enjoyment.”

Being the ”primary victim” of the Power of Destruction, Wen Xishu didn’t comprehend it, but the old principal, a secondary victim, did.

He had to admit, this was the gap in combat capability.

Xun Hui said:

”Teacher, I want to learn.”

Albert seriously replied:

”It does suit you. Your State of No Self is good at defense. If you master a powerful offensive method, you’ll have no weaknesses.”

This was also why Xun Hui came here. Upon hearing that the old principal had new insights, Xun Hui was quite envious.

After all...

He also realized the strength of Wen Xishu.

Frankly, being overtaken in combat prowess in the Slaughter Tower by someone climbing the Deceit Tower like Wen Xishu... to Xun Hui’s pride, it felt humiliating.

Of course, he wasn’t jealous; he was merely introspective.

Now, Xun Hui was incredibly eager to master a powerful technique.

Wen Xishu said:

”Can I learn?”

Albert shook his head:

”Your physical condition isn’t suitable; you’re not cut out for fighting, your foundation is too weak. Although you have many methods and your Slaughter grade progresses quickly...”

”But these are all shortcuts. Your real combat experience is still too little, which is a common problem among all geniuses.”

Even Xun Hui was speechless; the performance in Wen Xishu’s battle made the Five Elders take notice, showing how rapid his progress was.

But in the old principal’s eyes, the evaluation was actually — you’re not cut out for fighting.

He didn’t feel schadenfreude or think he had regained an advantage; Xun Hui simply felt increasingly that... he was still too weak.

On this point, his thoughts surprisingly aligned with Wen Xishu’s.

Wen Xishu said:

”Suppose through climbing the Deceit Tower, I obtain a strong body?”

Albert still shook his head, placing a piece on the chessboard and then pointing to Wenren Mirror:

”Some strength depends on mindset, just like some sequences choose people.”

”You and Mirror are similar; your mind is too complex, so you can’t learn it. Think carefully, what kind of feeling did that assassin give you?”

Wen Xishu pondered for a moment and found it true; Qing gave Wen Xishu a sense of wildness, devoid of fear, pure and with an extreme desire to fight.
