Every mission has its opportune moment, and Wen Xishu is someone skilled at seizing such moments.
He knows very clearly that he must quickly decide whether to take Horn with him or leave Horn on the Ark.
It was at this moment that Wen Xishu suddenly heard a sigh.
"Brother, you always don't use the things I give you, but you've paid the price for them, what are you still afraid of?"
This voice made Wen Xishu suddenly tense up.
One shouldn't be too reckless, thought Wen Xishu, even with trump cards at hand, don't let them make you careless.
So along the way, Wen Xishu has always chosen the optimal solution based on his own ideas.
To the extent that he hasn't used the ability granted by Scorpio—Save Point.
But at this moment, Wen Xishu understands clearly.
Wen Xishu chooses to save at this moment, overwriting the first save point because a few Tower Power Values can only maintain one save point.
But it's enough.
Wen Xishu ceases to hesitate, he makes a swift move and takes Horn away.
Sirius asks:
"Have you thought it through?"
Wen Xishu responds:
"I haven't thought it through, but I can preview the outcome first; it's Scorpio's ability."
Sirius nods in realization, understanding that Wen Xishu didn't avoid him because Sirius knows he will never truly be free.
...
...
The Evil Sea Giant Beast begins to ram the enormous Ark.
In the deep sea, one would see the Evil Sea Giant Beast, like Sirius, separating its flesh.
During the collision with the Ark—the Evil Sea Giant Beast's body separates out another Evil Sea Giant Beast.
This weakens the Evil Sea Giant Beast, but the other Evil Sea Giant Beast immediately surfaces, trying to attack the Ark.
This is Sirius's sacrificial pawn.
For this game to survive, the Evil Sea Giant Beast must draw attention.
When the Evil Sea Giant Beast collides with the Ark, when the corrupted flesh opens a path to the body of the Evil Sea Giant Beast…
The others on the Ark become distracted by the additional Evil Sea Giant Beast.
Von Neumann stands on the deck of the Ark, facing this colossal creature, his face cold and solemn:
"This beast, why has it weakened."
He senses that the Evil Sea Giant Beast seems injured, its speed and strength greatly diminished.
Behind Von Neumann is General Renault.
Renault suddenly furrows his brow:
"Damn, have we been tricked?"
As soon as these words escape his lips, Von Neumann immediately says:
"Send me back to my previous position! Renault."
Renault nods and instantly locks onto Von Neumann with his ability.
Renault, skilled in controlling distance precisely, due to his capabilities and wisdom, makes it clear, what distance to open, from what angle can he reach what location.
In this instant, Renault calls out fifteen hundred meters.
Von Neumann's body reappears near the previous prison.
Vanished...
Von Neumann is utterly shocked and completely gone.
Turmoil, the Ark's monstrous attack, Sirius's breath disappearing, all of this quickly registers with him.
It is then that Wen Xishu, Horn, and Sirius arrive inside the Evil Sea Giant Beast.
Inside the Evil Sea Giant Beast, Sirius also begins to weaken, he overdraws his power to create a small world inside.
It's like a rather clean room.
The presence of such a foreign object inside the Evil Sea Giant Beast is extraordinarily uncomfortable.
Yet the giant beast endures the pain, desperately trying to get away from the Ark.
Undoubtedly, the other split-off Evil Sea Giant Beast... has already died.
Even without Von Neumann, even with just the second best, that weakened beast couldn't withstand.
The chaos ends, soon the captain and everyone start to check all cabins.
Meanwhile, Von Neumann and Renault take the spare submarine and begin the pursuit.
Fortunately, though the body of the Evil Sea Giant Beast fractures, creating a trail of blood—
In this crimson ocean, the trail is almost invisible to the eye.
The Evil Sea Giant Beast seems to understand its mission, desperately fleeing without concern for life or death.
Finally, inside the room, Wen Xishu suddenly receives the message that the mission is over, he is about to enter the countdown state.
Simulation begins at this point.
[Due to changes in the Desire Tower's plot, Deceit Tower "Floating of the Evil Sea" will undergo dramatic transformation.]
[All players currently participating in this mission (except invitation letter recipients) will have their memory modules synchronized and changed.]
[Memory module changing.]
[Deceit Tower begins logic repair simulation.]
[Simulation begins.]
[Through your efforts, Sirius, who possesses the ability to reach the Evil Land, finally finds redemption. But his journey doesn't end there, and you are not his ultimate companion.]
[Sirius gives you a gift, but he does not choose the past direction of Phoenix; instead, he leaves alone.]
[The captain's plot did not succeed, and to obtain the power for the Ark to sail forever, the captain's rule became more brutal.]
[The Ark has vanished from the stage of history, in the future Three Towers War, people occasionally encounter some from the Ark, but they remain silent about that place.]
[The life and death of millions on the Ark is unknown. Because the Ark no longer harbors a great creature, the Deceit Tower task 'Floating of the Evil Sea' cannot be restarted, thus directly disappears.]
[Scorpio favorability +5.]
[Pisces favorability -1.]
This leaves Wen Xishu somewhat surprised. Scorpio's favorability hasn't increased much, nor has Pisces's decreased much.
