He actually felt that this sort of calamity seemed a bit weak.
At this moment, Wen Xishu suddenly thought of something.
If the Great Devouring appeared as a Slaughter Tower...a Slaughter Tower vortex...
Then, would the old principal also think: "That’s what you call the Great Devouring?"
Wen Xishu looked and saw that the orange vortex required an Anti-Magic Value of 40 points.
Most purple vortices required between 27 and 35 points.
Blue ones required between 18 and 26 points.
While white ones required between 6 and 17 points.
From this perspective, white vortices posed almost no threat to him.
With his Anti-Magic Value, approaching the white vortex would reveal a complete item analysis and provide excessive clues...
Of course, the recommended standard for orange is 40. That doesn’t mean a perfect Anti-Magic Value is also 40.
It’s like playing a game, where recommended specs and optimal specs can be very different.
Wen Xishu estimated that with his 51 points, he probably hadn’t reached optimal specs, but speaking purely in terms of Anti-Magic Value, it should be enough.
No more hearing whispers, or like on the 42nd floor, being randomly invaded by monsters outside, as if it were a bus anyone could board.
And everyone had gained +2 Anti-Magic Value; although it couldn’t meet the minimum standards, it could still decode a small part of the clues.
With this small part of clues...they might survive.
"The survival rate in the Deceit Tower is indeed very low, it’s actually lower than that of the Slaughter Tower. Slaughter Tower solidly builds a foundation, an ordinary person’s bottleneck might be around ten or twenty floors up..."
"But in the Deceit Tower, you miss a piece of info on the first floor, and you’re dead."
Wen Xishu could understand why every Great Devouring happened in the Deceit Tower.
Facing death, one is aware of how they would die, and the other doesn’t even know how they would die...
Of course, the former, with clues to follow, feels more solid.
Seeing Wen Xishu’s relaxed expression...Yue Yun said:
"Wen Xishu, you...you didn’t secretly...have an Anti-Magic Value over 40 points, right?"
Wen Xishu nodded, speaking calmly:
"Yes, not much, just fifty-one points."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"How...how much? Younger Brother, how much did you say?" Zheng Zai knew Wen Xishu’s Anti-Magic Value from not long ago.
At the Psychiatric Hospital Museum...just a few days ago, he knew the range of Younger Brother Wen’s Anti-Magic Value.
So when he saw the 40-point requirement, he felt hopeless because even Younger Brother Wen couldn’t meet this standard, let alone others.
But he never expected that just a few days after climbing the tower together...he suddenly had an Anti-Magic Value of fifty-one points?
Zheng Zai was greatly surprised.
Ah Miao was shocked too but found it reasonable. What my lord does, acts, and thinks are all reasonable!
Not only Wen Xishu and others were in the room, but also folks from the Security Bureau and the Stone Gambling Association.
Wen Xishu’s Anti-Magic Value uplifted everyone.
In previous Great Devourings, although the number of vortices wasn’t as many as this time...
Two or three orange vortices did appear. No one could meet the standard against orange.
This time, it was probably the first time a higher-than-orange-standard Anti-Magic Value appeared in the Bunker.
At this moment, the second orange vortex information appeared.
[Castle Storytelling Event, Level: Orange.]
[Recommended Anti-Magic Value: 43 points.]
[Recommended Number of Participants: 1-10 people.]
[Simple Information: It’s said that beyond the chapel, there’s a castle that, after the apocalypse, regularly welcomes some visitors. In the Knight Hall of the castle, these visitors need to tell their adventure stories.
Can you brag? Have you done evil deeds? Are there shadows and evils hidden in your past? If you have any of these, you must be careful when telling your story. Because the knight punishes all evil. But you must also be honest.
Good luck.]
[Extra Information: Belongs to Deceit Tower Level 30. If completed based on a higher-than-five-level completeness scoring standard...you’ll receive equivalent reward for corresponding tower climb completion.]
[Extra Information 2: This vortex is currently expanding, currently absorbing - 2. Those absorbed into the vortex and dying inside will provide an evolutionary tendency for the vortex.]
[Vortex Personality: Lawful, sluggish.]
This vortex only devoured two people?
Lawful and steady...three devoured, lawful and sluggish, two devoured.
Wen Xishu seemed to understand that the vortex personality determined the absorption range of the vortex.
"For the orange vortex, I’m probably the only one who can handle it. Xun Hui, Wenren Mirror, old principal, Five Elders, these people are best focused on eliminating white vortices, winning by quantity."
"And my team, or indeed me, should choose to win by quality."
"I’ll be responsible for orange. In fact, I’m already the first in Deceit Tower."
Deceit Tower, or Ghost Tower, just have a mad dice roll and top the rankings first.
Wen Xishu quickly contacted Albert.
Albert’s voice quickly came through the phone:
"Hahahaha, boys, it’s your turn to shine. How’s it going over there?"
"It’s genuinely satisfying to slay mutants."
Perhaps beside Evelyn, the old principal was highly active.
Wen Xishu described all the information seen in the safe house.
After hearing it, the old principal said:
"Oh, this is great; I didn’t think this thing would make the mysterious vortex...no longer mysterious. Very good, Wen, do what you think is best, your actions, your trajectory, no need to report to us, you’re the number one in Deceit Tower, isn’t it?"
