Three Towers Game

Chapter 384 The Three Towers Company Incident Comes to an End
“Boss Wen…” Li Weiwei made a quick decision and walked up to Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu looked at Li Weiwei and saw that Li Weiwei had her head down and seemed a little nervous. He pretended not to understand and asked:
"what happened?"

Will I be able to get the job?

"I don't know," Wen Xishu said frankly.

Li Weiwei moved closer:
“Boss Wen, I want to... join Three Towers Company. You've definitely already worked there, so if you were the boss, could you mention... my name…”

Li Weiwei gazed at him tenderly:
"I would do anything to repay you."

In the apocalypse, Wen Xishu could imagine the survival strategies of a vulnerable woman. Despite Li Weiwei's initial strong and virtuous demeanor, her current humble and shy appearance doesn't signify a collapse of her character.

In fact, that's the reason she survived, and it has little to do with her limited medical skills.

Wen Xishu said:
"You have your own community and team, right? In the apocalypse."

Li Weiwei nodded:

"Yes... in a hospital in Shenzhen."

Shenzhen?

That really shows some strength. Wen Xishu knew that the more oppressive a city was, the more bizarre phenomena would occur after the apocalypse. Hujiang was a prime example.

Jiangcheng, Shenzhen, and Mocheng… Longxia's three cities are no less unique than Hujiang. Li Weiwei previously stated that the communities she manages are clean, free of conflict, and everyone trusts her…

Li Weiwei has not yet demonstrated this ability, and Wen Xishu speculates that there is probably an even more powerful being who has established order.

However, Li Weiwei also used some methods to obtain special treatment.

“If you join the Three Towers Company, you will abandon the people you were protecting before,” Wen Xishu said.

Li Weiwei is very frank:

"People strive for better opportunities. I just want to live a better life. Boss Wen, I'm willing to do anything to get the chance to stay."

"But even if I can't stay, I will continue to protect those people."

Wen Xishu said:
"Then I wish you good luck in your interview, and I hope you will be just as honest during the interview."

Wen Xishu left, no longer paying attention to Li Weiwei. He believed Tang Zhe was the most likely to stay. Whether Li Weiwei and Clark Kent could stay depended on luck.

It is worth mentioning that during the interview, Shen Changfeng took the initiative to express that he did not want to stay at Santai Company, but only hoped to leave with some rewards.

Shen Changfeng's ability is that he can go without eating, drinking, or sleeping; he's an iron man. He also has people he longs to care for. That's why he rejected the offer from the Three Towers Company.

Wen Xishu admires this kind of person.

He doesn't underestimate anyone in the apocalypse. These people are small fry now, but in the future, who knows if they might become some kind of super-obsessed entity?

Wen Xishu found a place to hide.

He was going back to the bunker, so he didn't want anyone to see this.

The trip actually only lasted a few days, but for Wen Xishu, it felt like a whole month.

He was tired and wanted to go back to the bunker to rest.

At the same time, he was also very curious about what kind of reward the Heart-Questioning Gate would give him.

Soon after this thought crossed Wen Xishu's mind, the familiar dizziness returned. Quickly…

He disappeared.

This onboarding experience at Three Towers has come to an end.

Meanwhile, at the Three Towers Company, Gui Shisan, acting as a one-on-one interviewer, frantically inquired about Wen Xishu, wanting to know his background and why he was able to obtain Gui Qi on his first visit.

For Gui Er and Gui Yi, a simple funeral was held for the previous Gui Qi.

Clark Kent successfully passed the interview and became a junior employee, thus ending his days of dealing with the rats and monsters of Moen City on the Three Towers battlefield...

But Clark Kent was also caught in a dilemma: should he protect the people in the real world, or stay?
He struggled with the decision for a long time, but ultimately made the same choice as Shen Changfeng.

He was clearly the first person to jump to Area A, willing to work overtime and push himself to seize the opportunity, but when the opportunity actually came, he gave it up because of other commitments.

Gui Shisan still admires this kind of person.

Facing Clark Kent, Gui Shisan left behind a single sentence:

"Okay, I hope we never meet again, and I hope you live a good life. Someone like you, once you die, the people you protected might develop an obsession with you."

Clark Kent and Shen Changfeng both declined the invitation from the Three Towers Corporation. In the apocalypse, guardians like them are always the ones who evoke the most immense... and unforgettable emotions.

……

……

The clock and door that moved clockwise came into Wen Xishu's view, which made him even more convinced that... the Three Towers Company was not simple.

Although Cygnus is the true number one employee, he probably doesn't know much about the Three Towers Corporation.

The person who introduced them also seems to be related to the Three Towers Company.

"Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap!" The black-haired ghost let out a strange laugh.

Wen Xishu said:
"What are you laughing at? Still laughing? The three of you are completely worthless, just like decorations. Stop laughing, or I'm afraid Wenxin will misunderstand."

Wen Xishu walked straight toward the door leading to the Heart-Questioning Gate.

At this moment, the black-clad demon abruptly stopped laughing and said urgently:
"Wait a minute! Actually! Actually! If you have any questions, you can ask us!! We'll definitely answer them within our authority!"

Wen Xishu is certain that the higher the level of the tower you climb, the better and more obsequious the guide will be to you.

Clearly, those at higher levels can profit from this, but the specifics of those profits remain unknown.

Wen Xishu wasn't in a hurry. He could tell that after the Heart-Questioning Barrier appeared, the Three Towers Guides were getting anxious. They were eager to prove their worth.

From the previous "I don't want to say it" to the current "wait a minute"... Wen Xishu felt that this was the right thing to do. Only with competitors would there be a sense of crisis, and only then would one lower their pride to serve customers.

But Wen Xishu felt it wasn't the right time yet.

He simply said, "Why should I ask you anything? It's not a good question, it's not appropriate to ask."

After speaking, Wen Xishu walked into the door of Wenxin Pass.

Red Headshot Enraged:
"You can explain the Three Towers Company! What are you laughing at! Your laughter is awful, and it's always different every time!"

The black-haired monster said:

"Why are you shouting so loudly!"

The white-haired man said with a worried expression:
"He's already started getting involved with secrets, and even become...someone from that company. We need to be careful he doesn't get scammed."

After a brief silence, the black-faced monster said:

"Next time I won't laugh, I'll get straight to the point!"

……

……

In the realm of chaos, the familiar warmth once again enveloped Wenxi Tree.

Wen Xishu heard the voice of Wenxinguan:

[You've completed the challenge once again. In your own assessment, you should be a staunch supporter of Area A's strategy. However, you chose Area C's approach of prioritizing survival over overtime. What are your thoughts on this?]

Wen Xishu shrugged:

"Because I can calculate it, and the result of the calculation has nothing to do with my character; it's just the result of the calculation."

Strangely enough, Wenxin Guan always seems to want to change his self-evaluation.

Wen Xishu didn't consider himself a good person, and he believed his strategy was entirely "rational." The second question soon arose from the inner turmoil.

So, when you begin your second mission, entering the true three-tower battlefield, and choose to redeem the target instead of killing them, is that also based on calculation?

Wen Xishu shook his head:
"No, it's not that. Rather, I questioned the system of the Three Towers Company and made an experiment. If killing is the best option and I agree with it, I will kill."

"Alright, same old rule, you ask me two questions, I'll ask you one."

“I was labeled a cheater by Three Towers, which I think is unreasonable. You should also be part of Three Towers and related to this company, right? I think you should correct this mistake.”

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

In response, Wenxin actually provided an answer.

[Being a cheater means you violated the fundamental rules of the Three Towers, but that power was acquired through your actions. Although you received this rating, the Three Towers cannot punish you. You don't need to care about this rating.]

[For example, the items you obtained this time are now usable by all three towers, giving you special authority. This introduces unpredictability to the three towers, but the three towers themselves are inherently subject to change.]

The roll of the dice caused the Lingqing Mage's talisman, which Wen Xishu obtained, to become "universal across the three towers".

All of this could not be hidden from the Three Towers.

But these words convinced Wen Xishu that the Three Towers did not oppose "external forces".

He felt a little more at ease, as if his cheating had received official support.

But then I thought about it again and felt uneasy.

The next question concerns your authority. The purpose of this inquiry is to reward you. You will receive two rewards this time: one from your experience at the Tower of Horrors, and one from the Three Towers Corporation.

[You possess a very interesting authority that allows you to obtain three towers of the same number sequence, or to remove tower restrictions from items.]

[You performed very well. Now you will have a choice. Do you desire direct access to information about the future, or do you desire to correct past shortcomings?]

Wen Xishu thought for a moment and replied:
"For now, let's choose to correct the shortcomings of the past."

The next question will also be related to the reward you receive. During your interview at Three Towers, you met many seemingly insignificant people. Now, let's make a hypothetical scenario: if one of these people's fates was death, but you could change their fate by diluting some of Three Towers' authority, would you be willing to do so?

"I'm unwilling." Wen Xishu felt that Tang Zhe had left a good impression on him, as had Shen Changfeng, Li Weiwei, and even some of his enemies.

But these people aren't worth sacrificing his own interests for. In particular, with these interests, he could do much more.

[Your answer was exceptionally decisive, but it lacked a bit of honesty. One last question: on the Three Towers battlefield, who would you most like to encounter?]

Wen Xishu didn't think he was being dishonest. However, he didn't argue, feeling that the final question was somewhat of a reward.

Who knows, the next field mission might be where I meet the person I most want to meet.

But who is this person?
Recalling all his journeys, Wen Xishu suddenly felt a pang of guilt.

He seemed to have never responded to Tang Rui's letter. After thinking about it, I realized I should do it.

Of course, he also remembered that he was supposed to help Ding Dong pass on some messages.

Unfortunately, he still doesn't know the details of the Cygnus constellation.

"Tang Rui, if I go to the Three Towers Battlefield again, I hope to meet him."

You have answered all the questions. We look forward to your next adventure.

The questioning of the heart has ended.

Wen Xishu checked his panel and found that his level, number of slots, and items had not changed at all.

The Three Towers Company doesn't seem to belong to the Ghost Tower.

The magic resistance value remained unchanged.

But he soon discovered that he had two extra props.

The first item is naturally the talisman of the Spirit Master, which can release the Goddess of Suffering's Heaven and the castrated version of the King of Compassion, and is usable by all three towers.

The second prop is the official version of the employee badge for the Three Towers Company.

This item actually has attributes—

Increases magic resistance by 10%. Randomly negates one negative effect from a sequence or rune.

(The affinity reduction effect from before the "Realm of My Own" was unlocked has been removed.)
Wen Xishu didn't care that the negative effect was removed; instead, he was quite pleased with the 10% increase in magic resistance.

This employee badge is indeed a good thing. Originally, the employee badge had no attributes, but Wen Xishu chose no on the second to last question, which gave the employee badge additional attributes.

Finally, Wen Xishu discovered a surprise.

The bizarre sequence 37, "Mental Barrage," has changed. To be precise, it has an added suffix, which is very simple and straightforward.

The current sequence name is—

Weird Sequence 37: Mental Barrage (Three-Phase Version).

Without further explanation, the sequence's ultimate and regular attributes remain unchanged.

But Wen Xishu knew very well that even without the Three Phases, his strange sequence was now usable by all three towers.

He realized that if the third question involved choosing to obtain the future rather than correct the past, he would most likely obtain three sequences with the same number.

If you choose to correct the past, you make a certain sequence usable by all three towers.

This is roughly equivalent to turning the bizarre sequence into a three-tower sequence.

This increase in rewards is substantial. But it's also thanks to the Mad Dice.

"Not bad. If we bring down the Three Realms again and make the Ultimate Kick usable by all three towers, then my reliance on the Three Phases can be greatly reduced."

Although there was no attribute boost, Wen Xishu was still very satisfied with her gains this time.

……

……

bunker.

After returning to the bunker, Wen Xishu immediately began to draw.

He didn't stop to rest, but quickly drew the "Yellow Springs" that Xiao Tong and Master Ling Qing had mentioned, which was currently dominating Hujiang.

Subsequently, Wen Xishu marked many details about Huang Quan.

He instructed Yuan Ling to deliver this information to the principal and Xun Hui.

"Tell the principal and Senior Xun Hui that you must find a way to kill him. It would be best to kill him every time you see him."

The spirit of the courtyard said:

"Could it be that he's causing you trouble in the Tower of Ghosts? You seem to dislike him quite a bit."

Wen Xishu shook his head:
"No, he caused trouble for my friend. Of course, he is indeed a troublesome enemy. It's also a good opportunity for me to test just how powerful the effect of the Tower of Ruth's Severing of Luck really is."

Wen Xishu had already figured out that if he went to the Three Towers battlefield next time and had the opportunity to contact Morita Hitomi and the others, he could obtain the experimental data.

The importance of the Tower of Slaughter is actually very high; Wen Xishu believes it is no less than that of the Tower of Ghosts. However, if the experiment goes very well, there is no doubt that the importance of the Tower of Slaughter can be raised even higher.

He was very interested in this experiment and also very curious about Huang Quan, who could cause trouble for Xiao Xing and Xiao Tong on the Three Towers battlefield...

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

If the old principal were to enter the Three Towers Battlefield, would he be able to dominate the battlefield?
After the spirit left, Wen Xishu began to examine his inventory.

He decided to embark on his third journey through the Tower of Ruin, preparing to help fulfill a promise.
