But the Wen Xishu in front of him... didn’t seem to possess such strength.
To Jack, Wen Xishu appeared to have gotten stronger, but that was about it.
Wen Xishu said:
"Actually, this is a manifestation of my consciousness. My true self is in a distant ancient castle."
So that’s it...
Jack suddenly understood.
"It seems that since the last time, you have gone through a lot and your strength has surged!"
Jennifer exclaimed in surprise:
"Then can you help us deal with the nearby rats?"
Perhaps this was the task to officially recruit them?
Unfortunately, Wen Xishu couldn’t do it now.
He shook his head and said:
"Sorry, I can’t help you right now. I am currently just a weak avatar."
"But if you encounter unsolvable troubles in the future, you can go to Wind City. That is my territory."
Jack seemed somewhat interested.
Wen Xishu actually had a city as his territory?
He said:
"What do you need us to do? You must have a purpose coming here, right?"
Wen Xishu indeed had one.
"About the mental barrage, Jack, the kind of power you gifted me... I want to know, do you know about Tower Power Value?"
Jack shook his head:
"Never heard of it."
Wen Xishu was not surprised:
"So... using the barrage power to materialize, you can do it anytime?"
Jack nodded:
"As long as I have enough emotions, but even so, the consumption is enormous."
Wen Xishu remained calm.
Because he had guessed, it might be this kind of result.
"Jack and I... do not have the same qualifications."
"No, to be precise, Bunker People and qualified persons do not use the same system!"
"For the qualified ones, using ultimate skills doesn’t require Tower Power Value. But for Bunker People, although they can change a lot, viewing qualified ones as NPCs... To use the powers of the qualified ones, they need to collect Tower Power Value to activate certain ultimate skills!"
"This is the only reasonable explanation."
Wen Xishu said:
"Jack, thank you for your gift back then. What I wanted to know, I have already understood."
Jack was a bit puzzled:
"You came all this way... just to ask this? With your ability, you could have invaded mentally, right?"
Could the questions asked during their previous chat really require this personal visit?
Wen Xishu knew that at this moment, he needed to maintain his mystery:
"I said, this was an experiment. Lastly, I wish you good luck, my dear Jennifer, and generous Jack. Remember, Wind City will always welcome you. Of course, if I find the right opportunity, I will come to Mo’en City again."
"I have to go back now."
Wen Xishu’s incident ended.
The incidents in the other rooms also ended almost at the same time.
The viewers’ barrage was almost all filled with ellipses.
They couldn’t understand Wen Xishu’s relationship with these two. According to the rules of the story meeting, Wen Xishu indeed did what he described...
But strangely, these people were all very grateful to Wen Xishu.
Of course, they seemed to notice too that Wen Xishu was not an ordinary person, as he appeared quite powerful in that monster’s eyes.
The mystery, plus the rule-required authenticity, made Wen Xishu’s expectations drop a bit, but not by much.
Soon, Wen Xishu’s door was knocked. The surrounding scene started to change.
"Goodbye, Jack, Jennifer."
After getting the information he wanted from Jack, bidding a proper farewell, Wen Xishu disappeared.
Jack and Jennifer looked at each other.
Jennifer felt a bit reluctant, but she was also very curious:
"It seems Brother Wen Xishu has become really powerful, maybe even a level higher than the Red House?"
Jack nodded:
"Jennifer, have you ever thought about leaving here?"
Jennifer had thought about it:
"Yes, Uncle, I’ve never gone outside to see the world yet. Outside... there must be more than just rats to eat, right?"
Jack hadn’t traveled much either. His life had never taken him out of Mo’en City.
Jack was thinking, maybe he should abandon this old building and take Jennifer to see Wind City.
But Jennifer’s next words were:
"However, even if I want to leave, I must first... kill those damn rats before I go!"
Jennifer’s expression was ferocious, like a little witch:
"Hey, Uncle, I will definitely kill those damn rats!"
In Jack’s hands, suddenly appeared a needle and thread. As he mended the human skin on his face, he said:
"You will."
...
...
The third round of the story meeting began.
Originally, in the second round of the story meeting, there were six people left.
But in the third round, after the accident segment... the most surprising thing for Wen Xishu happened.
The cook died.
The largest statue in the distance said:
"Unfortunately, another contestant has been eliminated. His story was grotesque and perverted enough, but he died in the accident segment."
The cook had not expected to die.
The reason he told that story was that although he appeared fat, his combat ability was actually very strong.
However... the cook did not expect that the opponent didn’t engage in close combat at all. The simulated story victim had a gun, and in a quick American-style draw, the cook was directly killed.
Wen Xishu was surprised because he thought the cook, with his Hannibal-like attributes, had the taste of an evil boss.
He speculated... the cook might be the mastermind, the planner of this story meeting.
Or rather, the cook was the key qualified person.
But now, Wen Xishu realized he was wrong.
