The evil twin, that is Little Jin, also doesn't know the whereabouts. Little Jin said he was separated from Mr. Jin for a long time.
After Little Jin split into two, Mr. Jin soon learned of the Bunker's existence.
The long separation was the time Mr. Jin spent establishing the Bunker.
Based on what Wei Ping'an said, soon after that, Mr. Jin gained powerful strength and annihilated the people from Longxia Country who came to arrest him.
It wasn't the evolution system of end times monsters; Mr. Jin acquired some kind of additional strength.
Because of this, after entering the Bunker, he climbed with this power. At that time, in the eyes of the old principal, Albert, he was akin to a god.
But Mr. Jin's miracles ended quickly. After bringing back Little Jin, he stopped climbing the towers.
He hadn't climbed a tower for decades, and along with Albert's incredible talent, Albert became the strongest in the Bunker.
However, because of bringing back Little Jin, Mr. Jin angered Capricorn and Sagittarius.
Not long ago, after obtaining the Heart of Fusion, Mr. Jin suddenly decided to go to the Three Towers.
As for Little Jin's assassination attempt on him, if it wasn't under Mr. Jin's instructions...
There could only be one result—Little Jin sensed the aura of the Heart of Fusion and wanted to reclaim it.
Analyzing this, Wen Xishu suddenly found himself thinking...
Maybe he really had some malicious speculations about Mr. Jin before.
This person might not truly be evil, just torn between the stances of the Bunker and Longxia.
His desire for Longxia's revival was true.
His desire for the Bunker's rise was also true.
That's why Albert and Evelyn, those who had lived nearly a century, always believed Old Jin wasn't bad.
After all, without Old Jin, humanity wouldn't have had the right answer for doomsday.
Little Jin's assassination attempt was purely because of the Heart of Fusion.
And Liu Zhizai's death, Mr. Jin likely used it to avoid the Arrow of Destiny from Sagittarius.
In other words, Liu Zhizai... substituted for Mr. Jin's fate.
Wen Xishu had already determined that the timing of Mr. Jin leaving the Bunker coincided with when he obtained the Heart of Fusion.
He suddenly had a thought.
Back then, there was a group of people... waiting for Mr. Jin to save them.
And the failure of the God-Creation Plan, coupled with Mr. Jin suddenly gaining knowledge of the Bunker from somewhere...
Thus, Mr. Jin decided to first take people to the Bunker and preserve human civilization.
After that, Mr. Jin constantly climbed towers and built the Bunker, but later, when he saw Little Jin and brought him back to the Bunker, he couldn't climb towers anymore shortly after.
Because Sagittarius and Capricorn had locked onto him.
But perhaps there was another reason... he believed that Longxia's plan was doomed to fail.
He might have thought the Heart of Fusion had already fallen into the hands of other constellations.
It was only when he brought back the Heart of Fusion that Mr. Jin realized there was still a turning point, and he must go to the Three-Tower Battlefield as only he could do certain things.
Wen Xishu thought this, feeling like everything could now be explained.
But all this was just his speculation.
Wen Xishu said:
"Now you can't feel that familiar aura?"
Little Jin nodded.
Wen Xishu thought for a moment, perhaps because the Heart of Fusion had already been used, and after binding with Sagittarius, the Heart of Fusion changed.
For this reason, Little Jin was no longer affected.
"Then that's fine. Little Jin, you are our friend, you are also Mr. Jin's family. No matter what, Mr. Jin went through a lot of effort to bring you to the Bunker. I believe you are the next legend of the Bunker."
Little Jin raised his head, his eyes shining:
"Really... truly? Actually... actually, I plan to tell Grandpa Albert that I want to transfer to Deceit Tower Academy."
"I plan to give up climbing the Slaughter Tower; I want to climb Deceit Tower now."
Nissen, Yue Yun, and Wen Xishu were all taken aback.
"Why, you have talent for the Slaughter Tower, and your strength is significant. Climbing the Slaughter Tower suits you better."
Little Jin did something incredibly magical next.
"My past memories are filled with destruction and slaughter; it was Grandpa who made me who I am now, but I like it this way."
"And the awakening of past memories, although it confused me for a while, also brought benefits."
As he spoke, Little Jin's appearance began to change.
Wen Xishu instinctively shielded Nissen and Yue Yun behind him.
At that moment, Little Jin's face rapidly aged, turning into... Liu Zhizai's appearance.
Then, Little Jin's face changed again, becoming Luo Feng's appearance.
"I seem to be able to transform into many people's appearances, this ability I have not yet mastered. When I become different people, I gain different people's strengths."
"I think... this ability is more suited for climbing the Deceit Tower."
Wen Xishu was stunned.
Nissen and Yue Yun were also astonished.
Despite Little Jin becoming an elder, his power wasn't as strong as the elder's—as Luo Feng had already mentioned.
But nonetheless, if developed well, this ability makes Little Jin indeed well-suited for the Deceit Tower.
Wen Xishu said:
"Great! Very good! Little Jin, I support you."
Every person adept at climbing the Deceit Tower has their uniqueness. Wen Xishu's is adaptability.
And Little Jin's ability is also very appropriate for the Deceit Tower.
Yue Yun, at this moment, felt utterly powerless.
This is the talent monster.
You train hard, strive to climb towers, but in the end, you can't surpass the talent monster. Fortunately... the talent monster is one of our own.
"Aunt Evelyn said, I'm free now, but I've always been haunted by what I did in the past... Thank you, Brother Shu, thank you for forgiving my past! Wow, this feeling is exhilarating!"
The group exchanged smiles as if returning to the time after the Great Devour.
...
...
Another day passed, and Albert finally returned.
Jabbar and the Academy Spirit quickly got in touch, and the Academy Spirit quickly contacted Wen Xishu. Without any delay, he was eager to climb the tower.
After the matters involving Evelyn and Little Jin were settled, his tower climbing itch resurfaced.
Yet, because there were still some things he wanted to ask Albert, Wen Xishu managed to hold back.
He went directly to the principal's office.
"I've just had my first sip of tea; haha, here you are."
Wen Xishu was a bit surprised upon seeing Albert:
"Why does it feel... you've become a bit younger?"
Wen Xishu, with his extraordinary observational skills, indeed noted that Albert had fewer wrinkles.
Albert said:
"Thanks to your efforts, I experienced a soul-searching journey, and the reward was this."
"As you see, I've become slightly younger, albeit just a little, but the joy of reverse aging, at this age of over ninety, is quite extraordinary."
Followed by Albert's hearty laughter.
Albert soon added:
"The Bunker has entered the second stage, as the guide informed me, which suggests there might be a third stage."
"The first stage was a time of material abundance."
"Perhaps the second stage is the abundance of sequences, items, or facilities? I lean towards facilities... after all, the facilities in the Bunker are few."
"Let's hope we can strive together to reach the third stage. I have to thank you, Little Tree, you've reduced a regret I had for the future."
Wen Xishu asked:
"What regret?"
Albert laughed:
"If one day, I meet my enemy or face someone worth competing with like Leo... haha, if I were in my twilight years, unable to exhibit peak power, I'd die with regret."
"But now, I think... regardless of who awaits me in the Three Towers War, I can face them in a vigorous showdown."
Wen Xishu stood in respectful admiration, genuinely admiring someone like the old principal.
Of course, he also wanted to chat with the old principal about Leo, having truly met him.
Nonetheless, Wen Xishu first asked the most crucial question:
"Principal, has anything strange, anything that defies logic, ever happened in the Bunker?"
"Around the time when my brother was climbing the Deceit Tower, or... when I was imprisoned and about to be executed."
Wen Xishu paused slightly, pondering:
"As well as the year I was born."
