When the conversation reached Chris, borrowing Zhou Fei's body, Wen Xishu found his logic remarkably clear.
Especially now that Zhou Fei had acquired five skills.
Upon hearing Wen Xishu mention invasion war, Margaret, and the decoding of the rules about touching numbers in the confinement room...
Chris believed that Wen Xishu was there to help him escape.
Chris began to follow Wen Xishu's instructions and started recalling his painful past.
Next, during Chris's recollections, Wen Xishu also began unlocking Chris's various abilities, just as he had done with Zhou Fei.
At the same time, Wen Xishu suddenly thought of an essential nature of exploring Deceit Tower and Desire Tower.
What's most important in the 21st century? Talent.
This phrase was often heard during Wen Xishu's childhood. In fact, under today's worldview, it fits even better.
Wen Xishu's understanding of Deceit Tower and Desire Tower is actually about finding talent and self-improvement.
Most people climb the tower due to survival instincts, but once you reach a certain level, with certain aspirations, the essence of tower climbing becomes cultivating talent and foundation for future Three Towers War.
Jack and Jennifer, Tang Rui and the An Family Brothers, etc. — all are like this.
The most crucial thing in Deceit Tower is finding the right key individuals.
Chris's abilities are still being revealed with his memories, but now, when Wen Xishu returned to Zhou Fei's body, he realized the rarity of Zhou Fei's abilities.
The first phase of Zhou Fei's five-stage power is a preference for illogical behavior.
Once this ability is activated, even if Zhou Fei's actions are logical, the opponent naturally encounters obstacles, creating a feeling like the Trisolarans watching Luo Ji. Difficult to predict and impossible to understand.
The second ability, minor correction of rule interpretation errors. This is even more absurd; to put it simply, it modifies rules.
But it only allows small-scale changes, with a tiny modification range. However, it does permit you to generate error interpretations and then correct the rules based on your errors.
For example, in the corridor, logical actions can't be performed. In Zhou Fei's view, certain specific actions can't be performed in the corridor. There is a discrepancy, but Zhou Fei can use the error version of the rules.
The third ability is overload drug resistance, which is straightforward. Once memory exploration reaches stage three, drugs won't have adverse effects on Zhou Fei; they can even consume some physical strength to produce positive effects.
Simply put, immune to all poisons, transforming poison into treasure.
The fourth ability is a sleepwalking-like ending.
This ability is also quite rogue. When Zhou Fei is in mortal danger, there is a 25% chance of triggering a sleepwalking-like ending.
To sum it up — it's all just a dream, everything is fake. Zhou Fei will forcibly return to a safe spot, suddenly waking up, as if all the danger he experienced was merely a dream.
Of course, this isn't a reality-altering ability; it's a forced teleportation when encountering danger. To activate the ability, an absolutely safe bed is required.
The fifth ability, Wen Xishu couldn't comprehend. It's called Will Affinity.
But as Chris's fifth ability emerged and Wen Xishu discovered that Chris's fifth ability was also called Will Affinity...
Wen Xishu seemed to have some clues.
Chris's first ability is called Precision Shooting. Chris can always hit what he aims for.
The second ability is called Vehicle Domination. Undoubtedly, Chris can operate any vehicle with unbeatable skill.
Wen Xishu also possessed this ability.
Indeed, Wen Xishu felt these abilities didn't resemble sequences. They seemed more like things acquired after exploring the Bunker...
Like the super driving skills Ah Miao obtained, very akin to Vehicle Domination.
For example, the "Iron Lungs" that Wen Xishu and all the Bunker People earned.
These traits aren't sequence abilities but are surely considered superpowers.
Upon hearing Vehicle Domination, Wen Xishu thought Chris and others' powers didn't seem like those of Jennifer, Jack, or Tang Rui.
They are more like... powers humans can wield.
The third ability, War Fever. During battle, he can forget pain, even ignore some pain, and all his abilities significantly enhance.
The fourth ability, Killing Efficiency. Once he causes killing, Chris's power escalates; the more he slays, the higher his success rate in killing becomes, continuously stacking.
The fifth ability, Will Affinity.
Yes, again, Will Affinity, the ability Wen Xishu couldn't understand.
But Wen Xishu wondered, could this ability be related to his ability to switch and control all three of them?
In Wen Xishu's perspective, he's confronting the "Great Kind Man." The Great Kind Man can mysteriously parasite others; maybe these aren't insects but rather special parasitic creatures created by some sequence...
In any case, the Great Kind Man can parasitize others, forcibly descending and controlling the parasitized, just like himself.
But essentially, when occupying Zhou Fei, Chris, and Britney's bodies, it's not parasitizing, but cooperation.
This is Wen Xishu's speculation.
"The essence of Deceit Tower... is the Land of Obsession."
"The obsessions here belong to Chris and others, as well as those Good People..."
"In other words, rules can serve Bunker Tower Climbers while also hindering them."
"Chris and others' obsession might be simply leaving here; they don't know each other but seem to have been confined in the same place due to something, perhaps Will Affinity?"
