"What are you implying."
Scorpio shook his head, seemingly continuing the previous topic to himself:
"It’s like this trial."
"You can understand it as a test to make you stronger. If you really succeed..."
"Congratulations, you’ve helped the true God in this trial."
"But if you fail, then it means your universe has been replaced by one the Outer Gods are pleased to see."
"This is the contradiction of tower climbing."
"Your performance, the design of the level, it’s all a gamble between Gods."
It seems Scorpio won’t answer his question, Wen Xishu was brooding over Scorpio’s words.
An overwhelming tool, but the process of obtaining it was too easy...
Are we talking about the Mad Dice?
But the Mad Dice was something I had from the start, there’s no process of obtaining it, to speak of.
Wen Chaohua, the whole Wen Family, and even Gemini were involved, surely their sacrifice was not small...
At least for the Longxia People, a ruined nation is the most terrifying price.
The Wen Family did not suffer a broken nation, but definitely bore the punishment of a broken family.
If it’s not the Mad Dice, then what else could it be?
"I get it, I understand what you mean. The Three Towers have conflicting opposition. Poor tower climbing leads to stronger Outer Gods. You don’t need to emphasize," Wen Xishu said.
Scorpio shook his head:
"It’s necessary to emphasize, because you cannot avoid climbing the tower."
"Not climbing leads to a great devouring. It would also result in your future selves being too weak. And, on the battlefield of the Three Towers War, there would be too few usable characters."
"So, actually, you can’t change anything now, nor is there a more reasonable solution, only understand one thing—climb the tower as seriously as possible, achieving the best ending in climbing."
Wen Xishu was silent for a few seconds before agreeing with this statement.
"So, our enemy is the Outer God?"
Scorpio said:
"Yes, but our own destiny also creates our contradictions."
"Right now, like this moment, all Wen Xishus know cooperation is the key to winning, yet they all harbor little thoughts of hunting each other, or rather, it’s an inescapable fate of mutual slaughter."
"Killing oneself doesn’t feel good, does it? Especially that weak and beautiful self... but once the killing starts, the confusion fades immediately."
"Brother, we’re also desperately struggling, you know."
"In your world, nothing has happened yet. But in my world, we have all paid irreversible prices to no longer be confused."
"In your world, no core constellation has died. That’s a good thing."
"There’s a balance among everyone, there’s a little reluctance in their hearts. But not much~"
"But once the killing starts, once a single star dies, it becomes unstoppable."
"But we can’t escape, I can’t escape either. Compared to being killed by them, I’d certainly choose to kill them first."
"Hah, maybe this fate is also because of the Outer God?"
The Bunker People have their own tower to climb.
The constellations also have their destinies to face.
Seeing Wen Xishu’s face, Scorpio knew that what needed to be told had been told.
He couldn’t be too specific because some things couldn’t be spoken. Once he tries to say them, the power of the gamble would directly expel him.
But he believed Wen Xishu already understood; this is a battle between God and Outer God.
Wen Xishu indeed understood.
"I understand, thank you for clearing things up."
With Scorpio’s explanation, Wen Xishu seemed to faintly feel that the origin of the Three Towers War was gradually being revealed.
The contradiction between the Bunker People and the Three Towers also had an answer.
Time was running out, and Wen Xishu felt a force pulling him back.
Scorpio waved his hand:
"Goodbye, brother. By the way, answer a question for me, are we on good terms in your world?"
Wen Xishu’s figure began to rise, the bonfire in his eyes growing smaller.
Wen Xishu didn’t verbally respond to Scorpio’s last question, but he did give a nod.
Until Wen Xishu disappeared, Scorpio’s body also began to slowly turn to dust.
"I was kidding, brother; I’m not some product of another universe, see you next time on the Deceit Tower journey."
Scorpio’s smile was somewhat radiant, clearly pleased by Wen Xishu’s final nod.
...
...
With a mild dizziness, Wen Xishu successfully returned to the board.
Wen Xishu had already returned to his Lucky Road long ago.
was somewhat surprised, not expecting 046 to actually come back successfully.
In theory, encountering certain scenes of one’s own world in the Otherworldly Void.
Yet, in such a vast power gap, 046 could still return safely, which made 001 regard him a bit higher.
"Not bad." He silently acknowledged.
The third round ended quickly.
This game was like a microcosm of the Three Towers War.
The battle between "us" has the fate of internal must-fight and external pressure.
With the best luck, Wen Xishu, who was at the forefront, was quickly attacked by the next Wen Xishu.
Very simple, to prevent the first from getting out of the attack range of the second, preventing the opponent from winning purely by luck in the future, you must trip them up when you can attack.
At first, Wen Xishu and 001 were like the Leo in the constellations.
Belonging to the siege of everyone.
But when the situation became more complex, this alliance quickly disintegrated, and everyone had their own little schemes in mind.
The second, in order to prevent the first from leaving the dust behind, began to give up attacking 001 and 046.
