Although he internally looked down a hundred times on climbing the Deceit Tower, if he really had to fight Wen Xishu and use the Slaughter Tower’s method to duel...
He wouldn’t dare.
At this moment, Liu Zhizai said:
"Once, when I was exploring the eighty-fourth floor, I obtained a knife... neither Mr. Jin nor Albert know about this knife."
"This is my secret. The name of this knife is the Demon Blade, an ancient famous knife containing Tower Power Value."
"It is related to a legendary warrior from ancient times. This warrior used this knife to dominate an era."
"In the Slaughter Tower, I defeated this warrior and obtained this knife."
"The process was not easy."
Indeed, it was very difficult. Liu Zhizai had used all the tools available at the time, along with numerous schemes and plots...
to seal the ancient swordsman buried in Hujiang.
So, he only obtained one knife when there should have been two.
But even with just this one knife, Liu Zhizai felt the immense power of the blade.
Once he grasped it, it seemed to awaken his potential.
Moreover, the sharpness of the blade was rare in the world.
The ancient artifact containing Tower Power Value, in Liu Zhizai’s memory, was associated with a deity with a ram’s head staff.
As an elder, Liu Zhizai certainly knew about the Twelve Zodiac Signs, and he had been targeted by them more than once.
Therefore, he knew this knife was related to a task involving the Aries Zodiac.
The ancient swordsman was ultimately only sealed, much like many ancient legends.
Mr. Jin and Albert had even encountered a figure wielding a three-pronged two-edged sword and possessing three eyes.
According to Mr. Jin, these entities or beings from ancient times who possessed Tower Power Value were all related to Aries.
Among the Twelve Zodiac Signs... the oldest god, the god with the longest existence, was Aries.
"With your abilities, you might not be able to master the advanced techniques of Tower Power Value at this stage, but this knife itself holds great power."
"In terms of the Slaughter Tower, you’d be stronger than Wen Xishu, right?"
Miyamoto Yishu now understood that this knife would most likely be given to him to defeat Wen Xishu.
His confidence soared:
"Of course!"
"Very well, I will give you this knife. I hope you can use it to defeat Wen Xishu. At the moment when Wen Xishu achieves fame and glory, you will defeat him..."
"To make people realize that so-called legends are just that, and by then, you will stand on Wen Xishu’s shoulders and become the new legend. Not just the pride of the Miyamoto Family, but the pride of the Bunker!"
Miyamoto Yishu was so excited he trembled.
Even without this knife... Wen Xishu hadn’t climbed the Slaughter Tower much either, so his chances of winning were great, right?
With this knife, what could Wen Xishu compete with?
Ancient artifacts...
Miyamoto Yishu had heard a little about them, legends that seemed to exist before the apocalypse.
He knelt down and took the knife.
In the instant he grasped the Demon Blade, Miyamoto Yishu felt his five senses become incredibly sharp.
"So strong! This knife is so strong!"
This place clearly shouldn’t be able to use Three Towers power.
But even so, the moment he obtained the knife, Miyamoto Yishu felt a subtle change in his own power.
If he could acquire the faculty zone of the Three Towers Academy... the enhancement to his own power would surely be even stronger.
Slash! A mad slash!
At this moment, Miyamoto Yishu had an urge to draw the knife and sever something.
Suppressing his inner agitation, he bowed three times to Elder Liu Zhizai.
"Thank you, Elder, for the gift of the knife!"
"I will definitely defeat Wen Xishu, with a crushing stance! Defeat Wen Xishu!"
I am the most outstanding genius of the academy and the Bunker!
Who is Wen Xishu? Who is Xun Hui! With Elder Liu’s support, I will eventually be the first on the Slaughter Tower Celestial Ladder!
With the Demon Blade in hand, Miyamoto Yishu felt as if the world were within his grasp.
...
...
The second layer of the Bunker.
Wen Xishu had already reached the third orange vortex field, his figure starting to ascend towards the sky.
About to be swallowed, Wen Xishu recalled his recent experiences...
Feeling a bit regretful internally. Tower Power Value was really good; it could help him conquer the Red House instantly.
No wonder it was so rare. What a pity, what a pity.
Actually, Wen Xishu had other vortices to choose from, but he thought—
He still had two points of Tower Power Value left. What could two points do? Could he use a powerful extreme kick?
Not very significant.
Barrage was the only thing that could turn the tide.
So he needed to gain more Tower Power Value and use the Three Towers sequence to absorb Tower Power Value.
But currently, Wen Xishu only knew that Tower Power Value existed in tasks related to Aries. He could only absorb it from ancient artifacts or ancient remains.
So when Wen Xishu saw the word "castle," he immediately thought it might be related to Aries?
Anyway, he had a Tower Power Value deficiency phobia right now.
Thus, he chose this vortex.
Although it seemed far-fetched, the word "ancient" alone couldn’t explain anything, but Wen Xishu now desperately desired Tower Power Value, so anything related would make him prioritize the strategy.
"Scorpio, don’t contact me anymore, I fear Aries might misunderstand. In any case, I hope this castle’s mission involves Aries!"
Wen Xishu, desiring Tower Power Value, began to pray within!
He was also about to face the third orange vortex.
