Wen Xishu returned to the familiar place once again.
But this time, among the three tower guides, the Black Deceitful Head no longer smiled.
After gaining self-awareness, Wen Xishu no longer needed to ask them questions.
Initially, they were happy that Wen Xishu once again accomplished a great feat. The bunker advanced to the next stage.
But soon, all three heads realized... it seemed their jobs were being taken away.
This time, when the place with doors and clocks welcomed Wen Xishu again...
The Black Deceitful Head did not smile, although it had an invitation from Virgo to give Wen Xishu, but...
It could only do that.
Of course, the real reason it didn't smile was that it didn't expect Wen Xishu to return.
"Without your laughter, I'm quite unused to it. Have you become inherently unsmiling now?"
Wen Xishu teased.
The Black Deceitful Head said:
"Congratulations, congratulations, it's great you came back alive. It's strange, the result I got here was that you were already dead."
Wen Xishu frowned slightly:
"Looks like there's a bug in your authority?"
The guides did not speak, perhaps because it was too strange, they didn't know how to respond.
But Wen Xishu somewhat saw through it, this three-headed monster...
Seemed not to produce strange laughter today because it thought Wen Xishu was dead and felt sad?
And after seeing him, couldn't adjust its emotions for a while?
The Black Deceitful Head finally squeezed out a smile:
"Such a thing has never happened, perhaps it relates to your journey, but anyway, you successfully returned, and that's a good thing."
"You should know... If you returned two days later, you could attend your own funeral, right?"
"Although I don't know how the bunker is, I think your name disappearing from the Celestial Ladder List must be a very... very serious event."
Wen Xishu pondered over it.
The reason for daring to try Level 4.
Is the reason for daring to try Level 4 because it rendered himself in a state of death?
This state of death can only end by clearing the challenge.
It's interesting, its effect can actually deceive the guides?
"How many days did it take me to climb the tower this time?"
"Four days."
"Four days?"
Wen Xishu was shocked, he thought he should have been very swift...
He realized the seriousness, now the bunker might really be in panic.
But he believed he could resolve everything.
He began to look forward to self-awareness and the rewards this time. Daring to try Level 4 did almost kill Wen Xishu several times, but it's undeniably thrilling.
Moreover, this also means he has exceptionally rich rewards.
Wen Xishu first checked his status panel.
[Deceit Tower Level: 54. Anti-Magic Value: 136 points.]
[Desire Tower Level: 52. Luck Value: 124 points.]
[Remaining Tower Power Value: 25 points.]
Desire Tower and Deceit Tower both rose by four levels.
In the early stages, four levels might not be exaggerated. But for anyone climbing to dozens of layers, increasing four levels in one climb is already an astonishing speed.
Wen Xishu was very satisfied with the changes in the panel.
As long as the anti-magic value kept up, he could ensure that each exploration remained undisturbed by external interference.
There was no need to deliberately lower the levels to grind.
Of course, this time the biggest surprise was certainly self-awareness.
Wen Xishu said:
"I'll first experience self-awareness."
The guides said:
"As you please."
Wen Xishu walked into the opened door.
The familiar chaos and warmth enveloped him.
His consciousness entered a state of relaxation.
Wen Xishu faced the first question.
[I noticed that in this action, you seemed to develop some sympathy for Charlie. Is this your usual state?]
What kind of question is this?
Wen Xishu shook his head and said:
"Not necessarily sympathy, is it possible that it's just a normal emotion, with this emotion, I can empathize with him. Is that how I might enter the Wall of Rejection?"
"By the way, can you tell me why Charlie is so special? He could awaken such powerful abilities four years before the apocalypse."
[I'm not responsible for answering questions, but considering you completed the task well this time, I can tell you... Charlie is a possessor of a different system's power.]
Wen Xishu didn't quite understand, this was equivalent to no answer. Was it implying that Charlie's power wasn't derived from the sequence?
Is it... similar to evolution?
No, that's not it.
Charlie was different from the usual Red House as well.
Wen Xishu vaguely felt that from the fiftieth floor onwards, he seemed to encounter some unusual existences.
[The first question wasn't answered honestly, the second question is if you could ultimately single-handedly redeem Charlie in the Deceit Tower, assuming you possess such power and consider this a perfect clearance, would you be willing to spend time understanding Charlie's past?]
This assumed he had the ability to wipe out threats and pulled Charlie out of the dust?
Wen Xishu thought for a moment:
"Perhaps not?"
Self-awareness remained silent, Wen Xishu thought again and said:
"Alright, I think I probably would."
[You've experienced special choices, the candidates of God presented their options, who do you think you resonate with the most?]
Wen Xishu felt that Gemini was probably the most resonant, but for some reason, he decided to hide his connection with Gemini.
"Sagittarius. Although he didn't appear, you should know, I have an unusual relationship with him."
[You mean, for a portion of this fortune you can bestow, you'll give it to Sagittarius?]
This is a new question, but also a reinforcement of the previous one.
So... can he choose a zodiac as a beneficiary?
