Chapter 1377 - 439: The End of the Good and Evil Card Game
"Would I? I’m just a small figure, facing Leon only for the sake of survival. If I hadn’t been marked with the Lion Heart Brand, do you think I could survive?"
Wen Xishu responded decisively.
His gaze towards Scorpio was unexpectedly friendly.
This caught Scorpio by surprise:
"Really?"
Wen Xishu laughed and said:
"Of course it’s true. Not to mention you’ve helped me so much, given me benefits, let’s just talk about interests."
"Among the many star signs, Aries is mysterious and unrealistic, Taurus disregards the fate of lives for the sake of competition and covets the fruits of evolution, Cancer is bloodthirsty, and Lions are arrogant, they’re just brutes. Gemini and Virgin are too naive to establish themselves in the apocalypse."
"Pisces plays with time and will inevitably be played by it, Aquarius has nothing but trouble brewing inside, ultimately leading to self-destruction, Capricorn and Sagittarius are too confined."
"As of now, among the heroes of the world who I can rely on, who actively respond to the various changes in the world and adapt to the rules to change doomsday’s plight, only you, my dear brother."
Wen Xishu said these words without a blush or heartbeat.
The practice of these days was mostly about honing the mind; he became more tenacious and no longer confused.
In a sense, he also became... more shameless, more thick-skinned.
Scorpio’s eyes lit up:
"That’s right, brother! I’m the one who can fight alongside you!"
Faced with Aquarius, Scorpio felt a sense of superiority as if dealing with a child, but now, in front of Wen Xishu, he was as happy as a child.
"Brother, cheer up. At the critical moment, the small knife I gave you will help you! As long as our hearts are united, we can definitely rule this world early."
Scorpio was as excited as if he had been injected with adrenaline.
Wen Xishu wasn’t sure if this guy was acting or not, but he seemed to truly believe in what he had just said.
"Is your Desire Tower mission over?" Scorpio asked.
"It’s over, it’s already over. If Aquarius hadn’t shown up, I would have returned to the Bunker by now. Next time we meet, it might just be you in another timeline." Wen Xishu said.
Scorpio nodded:
"Then I wish you substantial rewards. Goodbye, brother."
This time, Wen Xishu didn’t hesitate. He decisively activated the Login Device.
Because he activated the login device ahead of schedule, Wen Xishu didn’t immediately enter the Land of Reception. Logically speaking, he should have returned to the Deceit Tower.
But because he had already perfectly cleared the Deceit Tower, Wen Xishu saw some simulations.
The familiar text prompts appeared.
[Due to changes in the Desire Tower plot, the 68th floor of the Deceit Tower, "Good and Evil Poker," will be rebooted.]
[All players currently participating in this task (excluding invitation holders) will have their memory modules synchronized and changed.]
[Changing memory module. ]
[Change of Fate Trajectory in the Desire Tower - After the appearance of the Sin Eater arranged by the chaebol An Rongzai, those whose fates were toyed with by the Sin Eater were all saved by someone named Wen Xishu.
With Wen Xishu’s help, these people held onto their initial intentions; they were not crushed by fate and displayed special qualities.
Ultimately, this group formed an alliance named the Sin Judgment Court. The court will occasionally invite, or even hunt, certain people or monsters, cleansing and determining the other’s sins through the game of good and evil poker.]
[Deceit Tower challenge change—facing Judge Jiang Chengzheng, you will not need to use the good and evil cards with him to change others’ moral orientations, but to conduct a trial and a crime assessment of your own and others’ pasts. Only those who are sincere and just at heart can pass the test.]
[Jiang Chengzheng’s Favorability +80.]
[Ning Shu’s Favorability +60.]
[Bai Xu’s Favorability +60.]
[Jin Yiming’s Favorability +60.]
Wen Xishu noticed that these names seemed to have shed prefixes like "Slaughter," "Desire," or "Deceit" at some point.
This is thanks to his current notable achievements in the Three Towers.
The simulation had not yet ended.
[Aquarius Favorability drops to the minimum value, obtaining a special invitation. Please go to the guide to collect it.]
Seeing this, Wen Xishu couldn’t hold it in.
A drop to the minimum value... Yet it still results in an invitation.
This invitation is highly likely to be for waging war on Aquarius? This was Wen Xishu’s third special invitation.
Only the first time was it obtained due to low favorability.
It seems that in the future, he really will need to have a showdown with this mischievous demon of good and evil. Will it be a death match?
Wen Xishu felt a bit nostalgic.
After all these simulations ended, Wen Xishu’s consciousness began to become dizzy.
...
...
Land of Reception.
"Da da da da..."
The black Deceitful Head emitted another peculiar laugh. This time, after all, something relatively important had appeared in their hands.
Wen Xishu looked at the familiar door and clock, and said:
"If you have something to tell me, say it quickly. I need to return to the Bunker."
The white Desireful Head first spoke in an extremely worried tone:
"You are truly amazing, but is it really okay for you to offend Lord Aquarius like this? Some sections of the Desire Tower are very close to the current timeline..."
"Moreover, it seems you also have tasks from the Three Towers Company. If you went to the latest timeline’s Three-Tower Battlefield because of these tasks..."
"You might be targeted."
"What I can tell you is, Lord Aquarius has lost several of her capable helpers. Among them, there was even one who was her Guard."
Not bad, the white Desireful Head was on the ball. It already took the initiative to report the frontline intelligence of the ’future battlefield’.
Wen Xishu responded:
"Guard? Was it Jiang Chengzheng?"
The white Desireful Head said:
"The Guard is considered the strongest protector among the lords. Of course, there are also a few lords without such a concept, like - Lord Capricorn, Lord Archer."
