Three Towers Game

Chapter 273: Chapter 111 First Tower Kill and Wen Chaohua Time Theory_6

”What a pity, you have four twos, and I have a pair of kings.”

Wen Xishu instantly reacted, activating the other ability of the Phoenix Gloves·Solution, disabling the item slot.

Just when Xun Hui was extremely worried about Wen Xishu, wondering how to save him, a shocking scene unfolded.

The surrounding mental world suddenly began to shatter.

The vengeful spirits from the desolate village, which had been rushing towards him, all disappeared in an instant. The desolate village itself vanished like an illusion, replaced by the familiar ruins of the apocalypse city.

”Now, senior, don’t daze out!” warned Wen Xishu loudly, who had anticipated all of this.

The bewildered Xun Hui immediately realized that their opponent had not yet reacted!

The Ghost Bride never expected that after unleashing its ultimate move, it would suddenly become the other side’s turn. It was in disbelief, unable to comprehend the situation, and was frozen in place.

Xun Hui responded swiftly, gathering all his strength in his hands at that moment.

State of No Self activated. Unattackable and almost ghost-like, Xun Hui appeared in front of the Ghost Bride in the blink of an eye.

This time, Xun Hui did not use his sword but handled it as he did with the supermarket guide.

The overwhelming resentment could not hinder Xun Hui, who bypassed the barrier of ghostly resentment as effortlessly as a special untargetable entity in a game.

Then, his hands passed through the ghost’s body.

State of No Self disengaged.

His suddenly solidified body pierced through the ghost in an instant. Xun Hui roared, tearing apart the terrifying Ghost Bride, who was about to enter the red bridal chamber!

The Ghost Bride was not dead yet. Its body oozed blood that gathered like a living organism and crawled like a snake towards the coffin.

Blood connection.

Wen Xishu immediately realized that the Ghost Bride might forcefully activate the coffin through its blood or use some other ultimate skill.

He wasn’t sure, but he knew one thing: only a fool would allow an enemy to complete its ultimate move when it’s on the verge of death.

Xun Hui thought the same, so he summoned the greatsword to sever the snake-like ghost blood.

But after severing, the ghost blood recombined and slowly approached the coffin again.

No matter how Xun Hui slashed, the powerful force twisted the ghost blood, but it kept approaching the coffin.

It was an uninterruptible process!

So Wen Xishu jumped into the coffin without a word.

Xun Hui was dumbfounded by this maneuver: Why did he lay inside?

”Kick!” Wen Xishu said one word.

Xun Hui immediately understood the battle strategy. Without hesitation, as the ghost blood neared the coffin, he kicked it hard.

The tremendous force sent the coffin flying tens of feet away. The ghost blood stopped abruptly, as it was too far from the coffin now.

If you can’t hinder the ghost blood, then hinder the coffin.

Xun Hui had to admit, Wen Xishu had a lively mind.

The already torn Ghost Bride let out a shrill scream, and the ghost blood, seeing no hope of returning to the coffin, finally began to dissipate.

But the Ghost Bride wasn’t dead, and the battle was not over. The eerie red veil seemed to have broken free from some restraint, as did the red wedding dress.

They seemed to have souls. The red wedding dress began repairing the Ghost Bride’s body, while the red veil floated back into the sky, transforming into a huge, bordered, blood-red fog.

The red veil descended. The Ghost Bride was clearly trying to pull Xun Hui into the mental world again using the same method.

Xun Hui finally understood that Wen Xishu had sealed the items, mastering the ability or tool to seal things.

But this ability or tool had a range.

The reason Wen Xishu lay in the coffin was to ensure he remained close to it, within the ability’s range.

Sealing the coffin was the key to defeating the Ghost Bride.

As for the red veil and red wedding dress...

An ambush might catch Xun Hui once, but not twice with the same trick!

Seeing the red veil descend, Xun Hui grabbed the Ghost Bride’s torn body and dashed away at high speed.

The red veil fell, missing its target and failing to drag Xun Hui into that world. Once prepared, Xun Hui could not be caught by surprise again.

Holding the Ghost Bride’s body, Xun Hui said:

”You’ve taught me one thing: hitting the heart is useless; to kill a ghost, you must hit the head.”

The red wedding dress covered the ghost’s body, repairing it quickly regardless of the damage. But if its head was twisted off, it wouldn’t grow a new one.

This time, Xun Hui gave the Ghost Bride no chance, snapping her neck straightaway.

He held the head in his hand.

A chilling scene unfolded: the headless Ghost Bride’s body still moved, completely repaired by the red wedding dress within a few breaths, the torn wounds vanishing.

Yet, that body frantically searched for the head.

Interestingly, with the head in Xun Hui’s hand, the red veil showed no movement. If it covered anyone, it would drag them into the Ghost Bride’s mental world.

But holding the Ghost Bride’s head, the red veil seemed to deliberately avoid covering Xun Hui, even retreating.

Simultaneously, the body in the red wedding dress, sensing the head, crazily chased Xun Hui.

But how fast was Xun Hui? He gave the body no chance to retrieve the head.

The Ghost Bride’s body chased while Xun Hui dodged. He fled, it pursued; the scene was eerie but comical.

Gradually, the Ghost Bride’s body began to dissipate, moving more and more awkwardly, the motions becoming stiff.

The red wedding dress and red veil fell silent.

Xun Hui remained cautious, avoiding proximity to the Ghost Bride’s body until he saw the kill count increase to 4.

Only then did Xun Hui realize the battle was over.

Looking at the head in his hand, he found it had lost its eerie pale skin and turned into a skull. The leader-level Wanderer·Ghost Bride was finally dead.

Despite Xun Hui’s battle experience and formidable power, he couldn’t help but feel a bit fearful.

After all, being pulled into the mental world, filled with monsters, was oppressive.

The Ghost Bride’s vitality was strong; if its blood touched the coffin after being torn, some change might occur.

Thus, he kicked the coffin away and twisted off the Ghost Bride’s head. But even then, it fought a bit longer.

”We really dragged it to death.”

Xun Hui exhaled, then realized he had kicked Wen Xishu along with the coffin and looked in Wen Xishu’s direction.

Wen Xishu smiled broadly:

”Wow, killing such a monster, I get a reward even for assistance!”

Not only did Xun Hui receive the prompt, but Wen Xishu also got a notification—

[You have achieved an unprecedented accomplishment. Please visit the guide for details.]

Wen Xishu was fine, which relieved Xun Hui. With a few bounds, he reached Wen Xishu’s side. Wen Xishu said:

”Senior, the coffin disappeared. Did the red wedding dress and red veil vanish too?”

Xun Hui replied:

”They did. These things won’t remain in the Slaughter Tower World, but there might be unexpected gains at the guide... I just received a prompt, the first in my Slaughter Tower career.”

”Wen Xishu, you really are full of surprises!”

Wen Xishu thought to himself, if you knew you got not only the Three Towers first kill but also the retreat kill, you’d be even more surprised.
