Three Towers Game

Albert found it difficult to understand.

In his initial calculations, if Wen Xishu was a genius, the kind of person he considered qualified to be a genius...

Then by midterms, Wen Xishu would be able to reclaim his name.

By the end of the term, Wen Xishu could uncover the secrets of the academy—the Deceit Tower Academy.

But later, Wen Xishu's almost insane attitude of climbing the tower immediately after one climb ended made Albert and everyone else drastically change their perception.

Albert didn't expect that Wen Xishu would reclaim his name in just four weeks.

So he thought, this kid wouldn't be able to raise his Anti-Magic Value—a resource extremely difficult to improve—from 0 to 50 in just half a year, would he?

That would be too fast; at such a speed, not only would he himself take notice, even Old Jin would be interested, right?

Currently, Albert's impression of Wen Xishu remained at the stage where this kid had reclaimed his name in a month.

But who would've thought, just two or three days into the second month, in a sense, still only about a month's time...

Wen Xishu directly broke through an Anti-Magic Value of fifty.

Albert was indeed overwhelmingly shocked.

He had climbed towers for so many years but had never seen anyone climb a tower in such a way.

Had never seen anyone spend more time in the tower than in the Bunker.

Had never seen anyone progress at such a rapid pace.

Wen Xishu was actually very pleased with the old principal's reaction, but thinking about what else he did...

He felt the old principal's reaction should be more intense.

And that was when Wen Xishu's wish came true.

Just as Wen Xishu was wondering if the guide's influence was that strong...

The second wave of shock brought by Wen Xishu blew up the old principal and the Three Towers.

The old principal was stunned for a long while, then thought about asking Wen Xishu what exactly he did to cause his Anti-Magic Value to skyrocket.

But as he barely calmed down, he suddenly received a prompt.

[Due to the influence of the Bunker Tower Climber Wen Xishu, all Bunker People have their life expectancy increased by 2 years. For the next month, all Bunker People's Anti-Magic Values will increase by 2.]

In the Bunker, receiving prompts in one's mind wasn't something the old principal hadn't encountered before.

After all, during several critical completion battles where the Bunker achieved seventh-level completion, he was a key player.

But even for a living legend of the Bunker like him, who knew what it was about, at this moment, he felt like a rookie who had never seen the world.

"You... you…"

Wen Xishu smiled:

"Principal, it seems that at least for the next two years, you won't be facing a natural death; both of us will only die in the Deceit Tower."

At this moment, the principal's office fell silent.

But the entire Three Towers Academy erupted.

The whole Bunker began to boil as well.

Outside, the sounds of mountains roaring and tsunamis of exclamations brought the old principal back to many years ago...

Many years ago, he, Old Jin, other Elder Council members, and heroes who once fought side by side but are now dead, brought the Bunker to a triumphant completion of a seventh-level achievement at the Three Towers Academy.

Albert had always seen Wen Xishu as the successor to Wen Chaohua, but at this moment, his trembling hands showed this wasn't the successor to Wen Chaohua...

This might be someone who walked the same path as him.

And his steps were much faster; perhaps it wouldn't be long before he'd see a chaser from the abandoned trail.

Albert laughed again, this time not the hearty laughter, but a near-silent laugh:

"You surprised me greatly; do you know why I was angry just now?"

Wen Xishu shook his head:

"I don't know, but I guess it's related to the Great Devourer?"

Albert nodded:

"Yes, it's related to the Great Devourer. The Great Devourer has caused everyone to lose confidence, and it has already started affecting some people."

"Our citizens have lost confidence in the management… Maybe this Great Devourer event will lead to countless people… Hmm, let me think, what's the trendy word, turning to the dark side. Yes, maybe countless people will turn to the dark side."

"But Wen, what you just did will probably greatly inspire those at the bottom."

"Hahahahahahaha…"

The old principal's laughter finally became hearty and wanton again:

"Hahahahaha… I absolutely adore you, kid, you are truly a miracle creator."

Wen Xishu said:

"Don't rush, this isn't the only achievement this time. I brought back a facility, a seventh-level facility."

The old principal could no longer be surprised; the previous prompt had already brought his emotions to the peak.

The bullet screens were flying around at this moment.

[This kid, hahahahahaha...]

Perhaps it was because the old principal's bullet screens didn't contain any darkness, just pure joy, that Wen Xishu trusted this old man so much.

"Tell me, what is the seventh-level facility?"

Wen Xishu began explaining everything about the safe house.

The more Albert listened, the more delighted he became. This thing was practically a temporary "Great Devourer Operation Command Center"!

Albert stood up and switched the high cocktail glass for a liquor glass:

"Come, let's drink!"

Wen Xishu and the old principal drank together, feeling quite delighted. Rokkasho nearly broke him, and he almost went mad in the Deceit Tower.

But at this moment, he felt that everything was worth it.

His efforts were not in vain!

Albert said:

"We'll deal with the Deceit Tower Academy matters later; for now, we need to gather the elites and head to your safe house."
