Chapter 81: Exploring the Strange Tower Again
Chapter 81: Exploring the Strange Tower Again
[When the courage to resist is born, fate has quietly changed. ]
When A Miao saw this sentence, he suddenly remembered what he had done in the strange tower.
At this moment, she might understand the situation of the An brothers better than Wen Xishu.
[On one side is the existence that he has been afraid of since he was born, the god that everyone in the family and even the country fears, and the endless wealth and power, and on the other side is his own brother. This choice has always been simple. Today, someone in the An family finally made a different choice. ]
[The An brothers will go to Longxia alive. This is the last mercy of the most terrible demon king in Caicheng before his transformation.]
[Perhaps they will return to their homeland in the future, and then they will be surprised that the Three Balls Group still exists.]
[Hidden mission - The Demon King of Caicheng has been opened. 】
[The Demon King of Qiecheng: Sanqiu Group will not be destroyed, and the arrival of a new era will not overwhelm his past achievements. Before the end of the world, people were afraid of An Rong. He was the true king of Qiecheng. After the end of the world, he was the true demon king of Qiecheng. The miracles of Sanqiu Group will continue after the end of the world.]
[The highest completion rating for this task can reach level 7. It will be automatically accepted when the climber reaches the corresponding level of the tower.]
[Changes in the storyline of the Weird Tower: After the An family twins fled from Incheon Port to Longxia, the Miracle Plan was stranded for a time due to the lack of core sacrifices and Scorpio's token.
But An Rongzai did not give up the plan. The cult behavior of Miracle Tower was blamed on An Jincheng. An Rongzai issued a statement to sever ties with An Jincheng and An Youxuan, and subsequently significantly increased the configuration of Miracle Tower.
Miracle towers have appeared in Gangnam District, Gangdong District, Yeongdongpo District, Seodaemun District, Dongdaemun District, Yongsan District, and Gwangjin District.
The completion of the seven miracle buildings and the various benefits of the Sanqiu Group soon brought people praise. An Rong seized the second opportunity and started the second miracle upgrade. 】
[Restart of the Weird Tower Mission: You are the new residents of the Miracle Tower. Seven families were broken up in that apartment, and seven people will die mysteriously. Let's turn back the clock and go back to seven days before everything happened. As an investigator, you live next door to one of the seven families. Please explore the apartment as much as possible and survive the next seven days, or you will be swallowed by the apartment.
But we still hope that you, who have performed well, can survive and rescue the other residents. 】
[Due to the multiplayer mechanism, the task will be automatically completed at the best completion rate, so the Desire Tower task "The Youngest Son of a Chaebol Family" is considered completed in advance. 】
【Soon to return to the strange tower.】
……
Wen Xishu found that he had only guessed half right.
He definitely didn't expect that the old man of the An family was so abnormal? If the miracle plan failed, could it be recreated?
There was white light all around, and all the scenes and environment were swallowed up by the white light, leaving only Wen Xishu and A Miao.
Ah Miao was surprised:
"What's happening here?"
Wen Xishu was quite calm:
"At present, it seems that we have completed the preparatory tasks for the seventh-level mission. An Youxuan and An Jincheng have both survived. They are now in a special space before returning to the Weird Tower."
A Miu didn't expect it to be like this:
"This is the first time I've experienced this! Does this mean that we will have a very high degree of completion?"
Wen Xishu was in a good mood:
"Yes, it's very high. The brothers both survived and each considered the other to be the most important target. This should be the key to this mission. We did it."
"Ah Miao, maybe you will also have level 6 completion."
A Miao did not dare to hope to reach level 6, the seventh floor of the Strange Tower, and achieve level 4 completion. In that case, the merit points exchanged for the acquired materials would be enough for her to cope with her own surgery.
It all seemed a bit dreamy, especially since she was still tense and trying to shake off the policemen.
A Miao calmed down:
"Come to think of it, I thought An Jincheng's brother didn't believe him."
Wen Xishu smiled even more brightly:
"In this world, there are parents who don't love their children, siblings who kill each other, friends who forget their loyalty when they see profit, and colleagues who hurt others behind their backs..."
"I thought the Desire Tower was full of such trash, and the Ghost Tower was full of pathetic ghosts... But now it seems, A Miao, we were too arrogant."
Ah Miao suddenly felt that Wen Xishu seemed very happy. This happiness was extremely pure.
In fact, Wen Xishu had smiled before, but it was not as bright as it was now.
"It turns out that there are still many interesting guys in the Ghost Tower. Not only the brothers from the An family, but also the old man behind the scenes is very interesting."
A Miao asked:
"I thought that the chairman of the Sanqiu Group would be our enemy in the Desire Tower... the kind of enemy that can only be defeated if everyone works together."
While getting rid of the police car, Wen Xishu actually briefly told A Miao some information about this mission.
Ah Miao had some understanding of the whole story, but unlike Wen Xishu, she had not personally experienced that memory.
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Indeed, he is. However, this mission is not aimed at defeating him. This mission is just to give the two brothers a chance to survive. An Rong is only here to show up in this mission."
“Strictly speaking, this is a win-win-win situation.”
Throughout An Rongzai's life, there were many times when he started with hope, had hope shattered, and then suddenly rose strongly again after everyone thought it was over.
It's the same this time.
Wen Xishu noticed that at the beginning, the task prompt was to find the "devil" behind the scenes.
But now, the description of An Rongzai has turned into a devil.
This means that the miracle plan failed and An Rong suffered a blow, but what is interesting is that this powerful old man completed a miracle again.
Such an opponent is extremely terrifying, and such an opponent should not appear on the seventh floor.
In a sense, An Rong let each of them off.
This may be the last act of kindness in An Rongzai's character before he crosses over from a human to a god.
So everything made sense. An Rong let the two brothers go in the end and accepted his failure, but a big shot like him immediately started a bigger plan.
Wen Xishu had no idea what that plan was, but the difficulty of implementing it and the cost required were definitely more exaggerated than the Reverse Seven Plan.
But in the end, he succeeded.
A Miao hasn't figured out the whole process yet, but Wen Xishu already knows the key point of the whole story.
Without An Jincheng, An Youxuan would become a sacrifice that meets the needs of the plan.
But with An Jincheng, An Youxuan can give up everything for his brother, so greed doesn't count.
The key to this task is actually to give the younger brother the courage to resist his grandfather, rather than letting An Rong manipulate him.
Only with courage can his brother face the choice of "he can only choose one between his younger brother and Sanqiu Group".
When the younger brother was willing to resist, and Wen Xishu and A Miao successfully brought his younger brother to the Incheon Port area... the mission of the chaebol's youngest son was accomplished.
The bet between Scorpio and Gemini changed from Scorpio winning to Gemini winning.
This is very interesting.
In fact, Wen Xishu has a good impression of Scorpio, and the Scorpio mode makes the process smooth for him along the way.
Although the arrest warrant caused trouble, it did not affect the final process.
If possible, he would like to help Scorpio. At least, Scorpio gave him a knife with unknown properties, but it must be definitely not bad.
"I really want to see the two brothers reunite. How many people can give up everything they have for their loved ones without hesitation?" Ah Miao seemed quite reluctant. She looked at Wen Xishu again and said:
"I always feel like I completed the mission without doing anything, Shu...you are the real miracle."
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"You are the key to our successful escape, but Ah Miao, promise me that you will not tell anyone about what happened."
"If there is an opportunity in the future, I would be willing to go through something similar with them. But everything related to the invitation letter must be kept secret."
A Miao nodded:
"You say what I do."
The white light slowly faded away, and the surrounding scene had undergone tremendous changes.
……
……
Weird Tower, seventh floor.
Miracle Building, Gangnam District Building. About twenty minutes after A Miao and Wen Xishu returned...
Xiaowu initiated the meeting.
Soon, everyone saw the other teammates on the screen.
"Not bad, Xiaowu, you are very punctual." Wen Xishu said.
"Hey... Ah Shu, why do you have an extra knife in your hand?" said the bald man Wen Xiange.
"Sister A Miao, your face, your face has become better! Praise my Lord Xishu!" Wu Xiangjiao said in surprise.
A Miao touched her face and found that she was feeling better.
Wen Xishu could explain it, because the copy was reorganized. If Ah Miao and I were just trying to make An Jincheng happy...
But if their original fate is not changed, then A Miao and himself will return to the original strange tower.
But now, due to the Reverse Seven Plan, the entire plan has changed. A Miao and Wen Xishu have also been restarted.
However, the trajectory after the restart did not take away the original credit of Wen Xishu and A Miao——
Wen Xishu sent off the writer Yin Junchi, and A Miao also sent off the comedian He Taiping.
"I... I don't know why. Maybe it's the mission reward? Anyway, my face has recovered and I don't seem to be so sick anymore." A Miao said.
Logically, she was affected by pleasure, but Ah Miao looked normal now.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that if we continue to stay here, we will become abnormal again.
Wen Xishu said:
"Now, please summarize our current situation and arrangements."
Venerable Wen was somewhat confused:
"Didn't we just do this twenty minutes ago..."
He had some thoughts, but since Ashu asked, he simply described their current situations.
After listening to it, Wen Xishu roughly understood that basically nothing had changed.
Venerable Wen now corresponds to gluttony.
Xiaowu corresponds to arrogance.
Wu Banana corresponds to lust.
There is another jealousy on the 49th floor. The mission goal is to send these people away.
The game has come to the third day. If everyone is not sent away on the seventh day, the game will end.
The basic rules have not changed. You spend fifty action points and can visit your neighbors for one hour, or you can choose to explore the building for one hour.
Wen Xishu didn't know if he could pass through the Ghost Tower quickly this time, just like the last time with Parrot's Sorrow, after changing the trajectory of his fate in the Desire Tower.
But he did know the key to the Reverse Seven Plan now...
It is about destroying the special items left behind by Scorpio.
After thinking for a while, Wen Xishu said:
"I'm going to make an attempt first. Please hold your ground. After I finish this attempt, I will determine the final survival plan."
If you're lucky, you may not need to make new plans.
This is what Wen Xishu thought.
Although everyone didn't know what Wen Xishu was going to do, the restarted copy actually didn't change much at the memory level.
In the eyes of Wu Xiange, Wen Xiange and others, Wen Xishu is still the trustworthy Ah Shu.
Venerable Wen did discover a clue.
In fact, he had been observing Wen Xishu. When Banana discovered that the wound on A Miao's face had disappeared, Wen Xishu did not react at all.
For Venerable Wen, only twenty minutes had passed...
But Venerable Wen wondered, could it be that A Miao and Ashu had embarked on a special adventure during these twenty minutes?
Wen Xiange is still very emotionally intelligent. He is currently waiting for Ashu and A Miao to save his life. It can be said that the future of the Xishu Cult lies in the hands of these two young people.
Since the other party didn't say anything, I definitely wouldn't ask, and I thought about trying my best to help the two of them without letting others get suspicious.
End of the meeting.
Wen Xishu decisively consumed fifty points of action power and chose to explore the building.
When entering the elevator again, Wen Xishu discovered that the staff member with his back to him was replaced by a middle-aged lady with a broad back.
Because the original staff were killed in the Desire Tower by Wen Xishu using the Scorpio Ham Knife.
Wen Xishu still used the old method to summon the mirror and came to the 43rd floor. This time he walked from the top to the bottom. There were still guards at the entrance and stairs of the 42nd floor.
The guards did not notice Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu did not choose to rush up and kill these guards as he did before.
Because the guards in the Desire Tower may be easy to kill, but the guards in the Trick Tower are hard to say.
There was no guarantee that these guards could kill him instantly. The strange tower had a magic resistance mechanism, which prevented Wen Xishu, who had a phobia of insufficient magic resistance, from being reckless.
"No changes... I didn't see any guards on other floors. There was only one on the elevator."
"The 42nd floor is still not directly accessible. So it seems that the Reverse Seven Plan has not changed much... It just changed from one floor to seven floors according to the story background."
"An Rong is indeed a top figure, but how did he manage to make Scorpio even bigger and increase its scale several times to help him a second time?"
Wen Xishu's hand reached for the necklace given by Wen Renjing:
"If An Jincheng and An Youxuan are gone... then who would be the person living on the 42nd floor?"
