"It really is thriving..."
Not just internally, even the tower climbing has improved.
...
...
Everything in the bunker is getting better.
But the more it was like this, the more Wen Xishu felt uneasy.
He was used to lacking a sense of security.
In fact, very few people knew that the reason he didn't want to stay in the bunker was because this place didn't feel like home, and...
Though the environment was equally dangerous, he preferred to switch to one where he could earn a rich reward.
This was Wen Xishu's true inner thought.
Of course, with the efforts of people like Albert, Liu Jinsen, Wen Xiangge, and Ah Miao each time they climbed the tower, he gradually began to feel like the bunker was a home.
Returning to the bunker, enjoying the moment when a hot towel was placed on his face, did indeed bring a fleeting happiness.
But sometimes people just act this way, seeking misery.
Wen Xishu always remembered that people often feel happiest when they are approaching happiness.
He saved many people, such as Little Tong and Little Xing from Hujiang, but when his turn to be happy came, a sense of crisis arose.
He was terribly afraid of blurting out, "Life seems pretty good now," only to become complacent and then have misfortune strike.
After the Academy Spirit left, no one disturbed Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu sat in the office of the Deceit Tower Academy department. After a while, he felt a bit sleepy and wanted to take a break.
He wasn't made of iron. Participating in the eerie competition in the Deceit Tower for two days in a row was tiring after all.
Wen Xishu prepared to fall asleep.
Usually, very few students dared to trespass into Deceit Tower Academy.
Yet the Deceit Tower Academy always hung upside down above people's heads.
Many students, when passing by the library area, would stop within the campus to observe the Deceit Tower Academy upside down in the sky.
Today was no different.
Although the Deceit Tower Academy had been there for a while, its shape kept changing and always managed to catch people's eyes.
Among them, a tall student was using a telescope to look at the Deceit Tower Academy.
His expression was very serious, and someone recognized him as Nagu from the third year of Slaughter Tower Academy. Nagu's grades were pretty good, even excellent, as his current highest level allowed him to reach the thirty-first level of the Slaughter Tower, classifying him among the elite of the elite.
Various family institutions, even the Bunker Security Bureau, had extended olive branches to him.
Approaching graduation, there was not much that the teachers at Slaughter Tower Academy could teach Nagu anymore. His appearance at this time did not draw much attention either; third-year seniors were sometimes rather idle.
The structure of that telescope was quite delicate, resembling a complex mechanical device.
Of course, this did not raise too much attention.
Recently, many students were interested in the Deceit Tower Academy, yet did not dare to enter. Many, like this student, used telescopic devices to spy on the Deceit Tower Academy.
However, what happened next triggered a stir.
While students near the library were watching and gazing at the Deceit Tower Academy, thinking everything was just like any other day—
A gunshot rang out.
Bang!
A bullet shot out at lightning speed from the telescope in Nagu's hands.
The bullet swiftly entered the Deceit Tower Academy range, switching direction due to the force field, from moving bottom-to-top to top-to-bottom. Yet the bullet continued its mission, heading towards the headmaster's office in the Deceit Tower Academy.
This bullet seemed to be blessed with some kind of power. Normally, there should be no angle that allowed the headmaster's office to be shot.
But, unexpectedly, once the bullet reached the Deceit Tower Academy's area, it slightly changed its trajectory.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The telescope functioned like a semi-automatic sniper rifle, astonishingly.
Once the first bullet hit its target, Nagu, like a calm assassin, fired three more shots consecutively.
"What is he doing?"
"Damn it! Is that guy shooting at the Deceit Tower Academy?"
The crowd began to panic, but Nagu remained calm. After four shots, he prepared to efficiently leave the academy.
At this moment, first-year freshmen Nissen and Yue Yun suddenly blocked Nagu's way.
"Stop! Who gave you permission to do this!" Yue Yun, like an angry lion, suddenly stood in Nagu's path.
Nagu snorted coldly and raised his hand to fire a shot.
Yue Yun's explosive power and reaction speed were astonishing, as he shifted to a safe position in an instant, just before the opponent fired.
Nissen also seized the moment to charge at Nagu.
Others had yet to react, still shocked by the sudden gunshots.
Only after a while did someone realize an outrageous possibility—could it be this person was attempting an assassination?
Deceit Tower Academy.
The gunshots had not reached Wen Xishu's ears. Wen Xishu hadn't expected that feeling a bit tired and wanting to sleep would suddenly make him someone's assassination target.
When Nagu's first bullet was fired, Wen Xishu actually had no additional information.
But his sense of danger somehow made him aware that something wasn't right. The bullet, altered by the force field, flew through the window.
It was precisely this force's influence that made Wen Xishu instantly alert.
In the next moment, Wen Xishu activated Perfect Bounce. The bullet was instantly deflected.
But then, Nagu fired three more shots.
All three bullets aimed directly at Wen Xishu's forehead.
At that moment, a concept flashed in Wen Xishu's mind—this wasn't some boring prank; it was an assassination.
