Three Towers Game

Chapter 319: Chapter 119: If You Can’t Even Trust in Games_4

He wandered around the residential area, using the vibration frequency of the Scorpio Knife to judge whether he was getting closer to his target.

If the Scorpio Knife could speak at this moment, it would probably be speechless. Because it was frantically trying to persuade its owner not to court death, while its owner was madly striding towards it.

Wen Xishu wasn’t unafraid of Scorpio; more than anyone, he understood that those who bore the names of constellations possessed strengths that no current human could contend with.

”The time point when the invitation cuts in is always very special. At least in terms of this option, any Desire Tower player with more Luck Value can’t compare to me.”

”Given this, I have no choice but to consider that maybe I am destined to have some sort of showdown with Scorpio. If I avoid Scorpio... then perhaps I won’t be able to redeem John either.”

Unconsciously, Wen Xishu arrived at the pavilion, the place where he planned to kill Duan Donghuo.

He was still wondering, where exactly does John live? But just then, Wen Xishu suddenly heard a child’s voice.

”Big brother, you seem lost.”

Wen Xishu immediately felt a tremendous sense of crisis, because when the voice sounded, he suddenly felt that everything around him seemed to be frozen. Even the Scorpio Knife fell silent, no longer vibrating.

Wen Xishu turned around and saw a child wearing a light blue suit, tied with a red bow tie at the collar, with an innocent face and a smile, looking at him:

”Big brother, where are you going? I’m very familiar with this place, I can take you there.”

The dust in the air seemed to freeze at that moment, but then everything returned to normal.

That feeling of time being frozen just now seemed like a hallucination or illusion.

But Wen Xishu was very sure, it was not an illusion.

The sense of crisis brought by this child in front of him was incomparable to that of the Red House.

The only answer he could think of was one.

Scorpio, he had run into it head-on.

”This time node, it shouldn’t appear here, but seeing it appear to you in this form, I’m very happy. Big brother, we have quite a bond.”

Scorpio looked at Wen Xishu with a smile, pointing at the short knife at Wen Xishu’s waist.

Wen Xishu knew that being anxious and fearful now was meaningless, so he simply let go:

”I’m here to find John Leon.”

”I guessed as much. Great! We’re going the same way, let’s walk together.”

Unlike when facing An Rongzai, facing An Rongzai, Scorpio was like a tyrant with a child’s face.

It could indifferently watch as An Rongzai knelt down and kowtowed to it. But facing Wen Xishu, Scorpio changed its attitude.

It very kindly extended its small hand, indicating for Wen Xishu to hold it.

Just like an elder brother holding his younger brother’s hand.

Wen Xishu couldn’t refuse. Facing such a being that could wipe him out with a snap of its fingers, maintaining his current composure was already exhausting.

So Wen Xishu held Scorpio’s little hand, and Scorpio showed a cute smile:

”This way, big brother.”

Scorpio began leading Wen Xishu towards the villa area. Shortly after, the two arrived at the garden of a villa.

In the garden, John Leon was staring at the river, curled up on the swing chair in the garden.

John had angelic curls, like those in Western paintings, and his eyes were very deep; when he gazed in one direction, it didn’t give off a dazed feeling, but rather looked like he was observing the world.

Wen Xishu noticed that when he truly held Scorpio’s little hand, the world seemed to freeze again.

At this moment, John should have been aware of their arrival, but he remained motionless.

Even the river surface was still. Wen Xishu realized that time had been stopped by Scorpio once again.

So, Scorpio can also control time?

As if reading Wen Xishu’s question, Scorpio voluntarily explained:

”Big brother, this is a game, and games have a pause function. From the moment I arrived, the Violet Garden has become a game world. And you, just happen to possess the ticket to enter.”

Wen Xishu didn’t completely understand this ability, but felt that not only him, even Xun Hui in his no-self state, probably couldn’t escape either if he came here.

Therefore, he relaxed a bit more.

”So, what do you want to show me?”

”Of course, John Leon’s life. The fact that you gained the knife’s recognition indicates that you, like me, are of the same kind, big brother.”

John’s life.

Wen Xishu originally thought of arousing John’s emotions to gather information from the barrage.

But now, it seemed he didn’t need to do that.

An even more formidable power unfolded before Wen Xishu’s eyes.

A screen appeared in Wen Xishu’s view.

[New Game]

[Load Save]

[Recollect the Past]

[End Game]

Paired with John’s solitary outlook over the river, it really seemed like an independent game exploring the inner world.

Wen Xishu was not surprised, and Scorpio saw his reaction.

”You can choose to start a new game to change John. But I suggest you not do that first. I think I am the one who understands John the most in this world.”

”I came to find him today, originally planning to load the save and continue our cooperation.”

”So, big brother, why don’t you first look at Recollect the Past, understand John’s past, and then decide how to end this journey?”
