"But my advantage is that I retained all my memories, while the other party has none..."
"At the same time, the current situation is such that I have no choice but to accept the invitation."
If I don’t accept the invitation, the story meeting will have to enter the fifth round...
Without a doubt, at the end of the fourth round, Wen Xishu will die. After much thought, Wen Xishu decided to accept the invitation.
He opened the invitation and pressed his fingerprint on it.
The next moment, the world seemed to come to a standstill, and the scenery around him began to change.
...
...
Desire Tower, Rest Area.
Wen Xishu noticed that there seemed to be far fewer people in the Desire Tower.
"Did you hear? Wen Xishu single-handedly tore down two orange vortices."
"Now more than half of the white vortex in the Great Devour is eliminated!"
"Yeah, I heard... It’s ridiculous; I thought it would last a long time, but it’s almost over already."
"They say the casualties are the lowest this time too."
"Is it because of the Anti-Magic Value? Man, these people aren’t that great, it’s mainly because of the Anti-Magic Value. I could do it too."
"So why don’t you go then?"
"I don’t indulge in such crude activities like climbing the Deceit Tower or Slaughter Tower."
Hmm, the Desire Tower is as chaotic as ever.
Although there were significantly fewer people.
Wen Xishu still headed for the Celestial Essence Region, planning to take a look.
But this time, Wen Xishu didn’t encounter the two academic instructors, Liu Ruyan and Ji Bodah.
He didn’t meet any familiar faces.
Wen Xishu didn’t stay long. Through the conversations of various people in the rest area of Desire Tower, he roughly knew...
The disintegration progress of the Great Devour was unusually fast. And the personnel casualties were the lowest in history.
This was not surprising at all.
After all, with the level seven facility safe house, the Anti-Magic Value combined with the advance intel from the safe house... Everyone could upgrade from Jiraiya to Intel Jiraiya.
Wen Xishu didn’t delay any longer, he found a secluded spot and activated the login device.
...
...
Desire Tower, Thirtieth Floor.
An unknown town in an unknown country.
The morning mist drifted across the stone bridge, cracks in the asphalt streets curled around wet locust flowers,
blue and white school uniforms were drying on the riverbank railing, and the caramel scent from the community coffee shop made people feel happy.
In the distance, the church had a very antique look, and from time to time, the chanting of many people could be heard.
Those voices carried a Sanskrit tone, making one feel as if their soul was being purified.
Wen Xishu stood by the riverbank of the town, feeling the essence of this town.
Everything was exceptionally beautiful and serene.
At this moment, a child on a bicycle suddenly passed by Wen Xishu.
"Big brother, be careful."
The child’s face startled Wen Xishu.
He was very familiar but this child was not one of the troublemakers from the Deceit Tower, but someone he met in the accident room, who had been bullied by those troublemakers.
Wen Xishu stopped the bicycle:
"Hello, I want to ask you about someone."
"No problem, ask away. If I know, I’ll definitely tell you," the child did not refuse and seemed very enthusiastic.
Wen Xishu thought to himself, maybe the local customs here were genuinely good.
He began to describe the appearance of the troublesome kid, and although describing an appearance with words made it difficult to identify, when Wen Xishu mentioned the clothes, the child immediately said:
"Andrew? Big brother, how do you know my classmate? Are you related to him? You don’t look like it."
"Is Andrew a good kid?" Wen Xishu asked with a smile.
"Of course, he’s an excellent student. But Andrew’s parents don’t believe in the church... that’s really unfortunate."
Wen Xishu said:
"Believe in the church? Are you talking about that old-style church in the distance?"
The child nodded:
"Recently, some people in the town have acted like they’ve lost their minds..."
"Hey, Teacher Mitchell, our former kindergarten teacher, suddenly went crazy. My mom said..."
The child seemed to realize that what he was saying wasn’t appropriate and immediately stopped talking.
Wen Xishu said:
"Actually, I came to investigate this. Can you tell me what this madness is about?"
The child widened his eyes:
"Really? Big brother, are you here to investigate the curse?"
"Oh yes, you could say it’s a curse," Wen Xishu thought... it seemed he was right.
"Recently... some people in the town, sometimes several at once, suddenly change their personalities and do some very excessive things."
"But if they disguise themselves well enough, you can’t tell at all."
"Teacher Mitchell was a very good person... but my mom says she’s a slut now, she must be cursed."
Wen Xishu asked:
"How long has the curse been around?"
"Don’t know... but the first person to go mad was Mr. Lewis, he suddenly got a tattoo on his head, making himself look very fierce. It’s said he went to the big city to rob a bank and even killed someone. It made the news."
The child shuddered:
"But Mr. Lewis used to be very gentle and kind. This happened three years ago."
Bald-headed spider man? That’s quite a contrast. Three years ago, the bald-headed spider man was a good person.
Wen Xishu asked again:
"Was the church present three years ago?"
"No... It was only completed the year before last. Because Priest said this town was cursed and needed a big church to purify the curse with holy power. Though people didn’t believe it at first... But! But Mr. Clark, who used to be very brave, was cured by the Priest!"
"In recent years, many outsiders have also come here and been cured by the Priest."
Wen Xishu said:
"Mr. Clark? Can you tell me more about him?"
"No problem!" The child seemed very interested, as if he felt he was participating in something very righteous.
