Wenren Mirror furrowed his brow:
"This... the place you’re talking about is Hujiang District 19 and 20? Are you sure?"
Wen Xishu nodded.
Those around were also seeing Wenren Mirror with this expression for the first time.
Wen Xishu seemed to have thought of a possibility, speaking somewhat uncertainly:
"Your reaction isn’t suggesting that..."
Wenren Mirror nodded and showed a very complex smile, somewhat delighted yet a little helpless:
"I know you’ve progressed quickly... but how can it be this fast?"
"The place I am about to go happens to be those two areas too."
"Right now... I suddenly start to worry about Xun Hui."
For the first time, Wen Xishu did not immediately understand what this meant.
But soon, Wen Xishu caught on.
"You guys... entered at the same time?"
Wenren Mirror had to admit, talking with Wen Xishu was very relaxing.
Wenren Mirror said:
"It’s such a coincidence that I think... could it be some mechanism of the Three Towers?"
"The area I’m heading to is Hujiang District 19 and 20. My task is to investigate District 20. The task name is Painful Reward."
"Not long ago, Xun Hui and I fought our way out of the white vortex."
"Then we both confirmed that the Big Devour was about to end, and afterward, we received the news that you... almost immediately started your fourth vortex journey."
"Which is the Fusion Whirlpool."
"So Xun Hui and I thought, we have to learn from you, or else you’d soon catch up to us."
"So, about three hours after you entered the Fusion Whirlpool, Xun Hui and I also activated our loggers. I entered the Desire Tower, he entered the Slaughter Tower."
"Strangely, my Desire Tower level showed this time as the sixtieth floor."
"Logically, my level should be higher than this. Then, I met you. It turned out that the region you and I were headed to were the same."
"The time we went in was almost the same, and I happened to reach the sixtieth floor, and Xun Hui precisely broke through to the sixtieth floor, so I guess, he’s also at the sixtieth floor."
"Coincidentally, the area you headed to is in Hujiang District 19 and District 20, and the area I headed to is also 19 and 20..."
At this point, Wen Xishu completely understood.
"So... if this is not a coincidence, it means we’ve triggered some mechanism."
"Everyone who can enter the Three Towers at this time and meets the required level will enter the corresponding level area?"
Wenren Mirror nodded and smiled bitterly:
"I look forward to someone catching up with me, but... when it really happens, my feelings are still very complicated."
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"No, senior, there’s still a huge gap between us. The orange whirlpool doesn’t discriminate between new and old hands. I came here forcibly because of the whirlpool."
Wenren Mirror shook his head and said:
"You were able to get here because you got the key item, right?"
"It shows that you’ve already made a significant breakthrough at the corresponding level of the Deceit Tower."
Does using cheats count as a breakthrough?
Usually, Wen Xishu would laughingly admit that, after all, he usually got his invitation by his own abilities.
But this time, Wen Xishu had actually made no breakthroughs.
He had almost no progress. The invitation he got was through cheating with the Delirium Dice.
As for the human cave... he had only entered two human caves and almost lost himself.
The first human cave he survived was purely due to luck.
As for District 20 related to Pain Currency, he still had no clues.
Because of the "happiness" theme, Wen Xishu’s experiences were not as thrilling and terrifying as Rokkasho.
But in terms of survival difficulty, Wen Xishu already felt that he was barely managing to live.
This was absolutely the most difficult Deceit Tower challenge he had faced.
At this moment, Wen Xishu finally felt a little relieved.
It turns out—
This brought me to Deceit Tower’s sixtieth floor.
Wen Xishu said:
"But what is the significance of this mechanism?"
Wenren Mirror said:
"The fusion of two whirlpools represents the breaking of boundaries between two areas... Maybe, a new seven-level task has appeared."
"In the history of the Bunker, there have actually been several such instances."
"The Five Elders, those former legends, and our teachers, they have also encountered such situations before."
"According to the teachers, some of the seven-level facilities on the sixteenth floor of the Bunker were achieved this way, a group of people collaborating from the Three Towers."
Three Towers, three routes.
Only now did Wen Xishu understand, it turns out that those seven-level facilities in the Bunker came about this way.
Climbers from the Three Towers worked hard from three directions?
The Slaughter Tower altered the fate of some in the Three-Tower Battlefield...
The Deceit Tower extinguished and dismantled certain obsessions...
The Desire Tower re-anchored destiny in reality...
If within a short period, a region achieves all three, it reaches the highest completion level.
Of course, perhaps at some stages, like before the Deceit Tower appeared, only two towers needed to achieve this simultaneously.
Wen Xishu suddenly became interested. He had always been puzzled—how come he didn’t get seven-level completion when he had clearly changed some people’s lives?
Now he began to understand.
Wen Xishu was full of fighting spirit. Achieving a seven-level completion would be the best conclusion to the Big Devour.
Similarly, Wenren Mirror also thought of this point.
He never expected to be passively involved in the conclusion of the Big Devour by coincidence.
"Senior, I’ll handle District 19, you take care of District 20?" Wen Xishu said.
Wenren Mirror was a bit worried:
"That area... is very dangerous, right?"
Wen Xishu laughed:
"Of course, but it’s okay. I just hope Senior Xun Hui won’t drag us down."
Wenren Mirror smiled faintly:
"He’s very strong. Sixty floors might be tough for us since we have to find clues, trace the source, and we don’t have combat power ourselves."
"But for him, in the Slaughter Tower, he only needs to do one thing well."
Indeed, there is nothing deceitful in the Slaughter Tower, no room for any trick, as long as one has enough combat strength. The lower limit of the Slaughter Tower is very high; without strength, one can’t advance even an inch.
But correspondingly, the difficulty ceiling of the Slaughter Tower is not as high as the Deceit Tower or the Desire Tower.
The Deceit Tower and the Desire Tower have all kinds of twists and turns.
The people around had already left, and Wenren Mirror said:
"I didn’t expect Xun Hui and I to benefit from your light, we’ll meet at the Desire Tower."
Wenren Mirror said, activating the logger, while at the same time, Wen Xishu also activated his logger.
Wondering if using violence in the Desire Tower in front of Wenren Mirror would surprise him?
Wen Xishu had a little anticipation in his heart:
"See you at the Desire Tower."
