In fact, Wen Xishu could, like an assassin in a certain game, see a person’s entire life during the process of killing them.
"With this ability, if I traveled to any crime-solving suspense show, I’d be a cheat... the dead would directly tell me the answer."
Unfortunately, this is the Three-Tower World.
Wen Xishu shook his head. Although this ability isn’t related to combat, it’s possible some undead might provide extremely crucial clues, like the boss’s combat skills or something.
For example, by a dangerous trap, he could use an undead to guide him and know there’s a trap buried here.
At the same time, when Wen Xishu faces a target that needs to be killed quickly, he no longer has to worry about beating them up for information... just kill them directly and use the undead barrage to get the info.
"Last time I got a rune... it was mixed feelings, but you could only receive it at the guide because the rune occupied a certain portion of the reward..."
"This time’s rune, although not as practical as the mixed feelings one, is also not bad, and it can be used directly. Does this mean, compared to my ultimate reward..."
"This rune is practically nothing?"
Wen Xishu got excited. This journey’s reward cap might be for a level-seven completion.
But whether he can get the top reward or not depends on his own performance.
Wen Xishu bade farewell to Master Lingqing:
"We will meet in the future, Master."
Master Lingqing also rarely showed a sliver of hope:
"At least I need to know your name, Donor."
"My name is Wen Xishu."
"Donor Wen, I wish you all the best."
They bid each other farewell.
Wen Xishu’s journey of slaughter began.
...
...
Wen Xishu’s first target was the gourmet.
In the Deceit Tower, Wen Xishu didn’t wait for the gourmet, nor did he hope to meet the gourmet again after returning.
So Wen Xishu planned to take care of the "delivery man," "homeless man," "gourmet," and the "doctor" first.
After thinking it over, Wen Xishu decided to start with the gourmet.
Because in the Deceit Tower, Mariko highly recommended the gourmet, it was evident from that time...
The gourmet was probably beautified by the defilers.
Wen Xishu wasn’t going to kill them one by one, and then find the defilers...
"Given the defilers’ familiarity with this world, if two of the seven die, they would soon notice."
"Not to mention if I killed all seven and then looked for them... they might have long fled or hidden by then."
"I must catch them off guard."
The gourmet’s restaurant was called the "Evolver Restaurant," which featured various disturbing ingredients.
The origins of these ingredients were fairly easy to guess.
Various mutations caused by radiation, not just from animals, but also from humans.
Under the gourmet’s cooking, these foods apparently could provide targeted "evolution."
Controlling radiation mutations is the result both the gourmet and the doctor strive to achieve.
Just by approaching the restaurant, Wen Xishu felt surrounded by monsters.
These mutants mutated toward combat, with sharp teeth, claws, stronger and more muscular limbs, and tough scales.
These were the security of the "Evolver Restaurant."
From a distance, Wen Xishu saw a floating barrage above the restaurant.
[Save me! They are going to kill me! Save me!]
This wasn’t a living person’s message, but the barrage left by a prior deceased.
Clearly, there was also the act of directly killing some inferior mutants and making them into ingredients. At this time, Wen Xishu was only tens of meters away from the Evolver Restaurant.
He finally decided to sneak in.
This wasn’t difficult.
With an unknown identity, strong parkour abilities, exaggerated arm strength, even more exaggerated leg strength, tracking ability with the compass’s guidance, horrific close combat kills, and even more horrifying long-range kills...
With all these abilities combined, Wen Xishu felt his name could be "Wen Altaïr Xishu Ezio Auditore."
For Wen Xishu, this was like an info-rich assassination simulator game.
He mingled with the guests to enter the restaurant, then borrowed the restroom.
Next, he climbed up through the ventilation ducts. Amidst the complex pipes, Wen Xishu didn’t get lost as the compass always guided him.
He quickly approached his target.
In no time, Wen Xishu saw the gourmet.
The gourmet’s appearance wasn’t strange, to be precise, these seven people didn’t look particularly odd.
They still seemed to retain their human features.
The gourmet had blond hair, wore a brown suit, and was currently entertaining an esteemed guest. The guest was from Hujiang.
The two were in the restaurant’s luxurious private room.
"After the experiment in Rokkasho ends, we can likely conduct large-scale experiments in Hujiang."
The guest, wearing a royal blue suit, holding a goblet, appeared very classy.
The way the gourmet held the wine glass made Wen Xishu feel a bit nauseous, very effeminate, like he was holding the glass with orchid fingers.
"Success is near, maybe you don’t know something ~ in our Rokkasho, there’s also a god."
"My recipe is constantly being improved with the help of that god. It may be hard for you to grasp this... but in short, I believe soon, the god of Rokkasho will help us control the direction of evolution."
The gourmet raised his wineglass:
"Cheers, Mr. Congressman, the apocalypse won’t become the end of our Island Country. On the contrary, we will become the masters of the apocalypse!"
