Three Towers Game

Chapter 577: Original text: Chapter 169 The Castle Story Concludes_3 Modified:

This sensation was very peculiar, as if an extra star had appeared in the sky of the sea of consciousness. Then, under the guidance of some mysterious power, two more stars emerged in the sky.

”Alright then, even though I don’t think much of this power, I don’t like making a trip for nothing. Goodbye, Priest. You haven’t truly died, which I suppose is a good thing. But don’t go any further.” Wen Xishu said.

The Priest nodded in terror, not at all like a mission boss.

He was more like a servant of Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu had indulged in his pleasure of using borrowed authority. He remembered someone who, while watching TV at home, would tell everyone that he had personally listened to a leader’s speech.

Watching a football match, when the camera focused on a certain star player, he would say that he had once locked eyes with that player without exchanging words, just a mutual gaze.

This person was quite pretentious, but in a way, it was also a humorous expression—one could even say it was an honest one. Wen Xishu had begun using this technique to manipulate the Priest, playing him like a puppet.

There were many strange occurrences in the Deceit Tower, but the strangest of all was still the human heart.

As the Priest nodded in terror and as everything settled...

Wen Xishu’s third orange vortex journey came to an end.

His figure completely vanished within a few breaths.

Only at that moment did the Priest weep in humiliation:

”Finally... finally survived.”

...

...

Bunker.

”Look quickly... the third vortex! It has collapsed!”

It had been nine hours since Wen Xishu went to the vortex. Most of Wen Xishu’s time was spent in the Desire Tower.

During those nine hours, everything in the bunker remained fairly normal, the speed of vortex elimination unchanged.

People were filled with confidence.

And as the third orange vortex fell from the sky...

Everyone felt that the end of the Great Devouring was near.

Albert and Evelyn, who had just returned from the white vortex, both witnessed the scene of the third orange vortex falling.

Evelyn said:

”This scene is really beautiful. It’s like... the sun being shot down.”

Albert laughed and said:

”It’s almost over. This is really... the fastest ending to a Great Devouring ever.”

Evelyn smiled and said:

”You won, Albert. This Great Devouring is coming to an end. Almost everyone gained Anti-Magic Value from participating in the white vortex assault. Now climbing the Deceit Tower is an unstoppable trend.”

”What will you do next?”

Albert shook his head:

”I haven’t won, Evelyn. My win or loss only counts in the Slaughter Tower. But I have realized that no matter how strong a person is, he can’t reach the top by climbing only the Slaughter Tower.”

”The Great Devouring isn’t over yet either.”

Evelyn said:

”Wen Xishu doesn’t need to eliminate all the orange vortexes, because in terms of progress, it’s almost over. He can actually start enjoying the fruits of victory.”

Just like in a war, when the enemy’s troops lose more than half, they usually sound the retreat and declare defeat.

With the orange vortexes falling one after another, and the white and blue vortexes being massively conquered, the disintegration progress of the Great Devouring has reached its final stage.

Although not long ago, nine orange vortexes were hanging high in the sky... in reality, the remaining six vortexes could be ignored. It was only necessary to keep eliminating the white vortexes.

Albert laughed:

”You don’t understand that kid. He will definitely destroy another orange vortex.”

Evelyn said:

”Are you saying he just enjoys the process, and it’s not about the Great Devouring itself?”

Albert nodded:

”Even after the Great Devouring ends, he won’t slow down. I like that kid’s craziness; it’s better than Old Jin. However, I need to make him stop for a bit. After all, the secrets of the academy should be uncovered by him.”
