Three Towers Game

Wen Xishu was quite familiar with the act of killing.

After all, in his journey, it had only been three months.

In these three months, he had committed both indirect and direct killings, killed wicked people and those who weren’t so wicked, even some innocent ones.

The more people he killed, the less emotional disturbance the killing caused.

When Wen Xishu found Russell, Russell indeed already understood the concept of a woman, staring at the Sea Beasts in the sky, which seemed to be stuck in a frame... Russell still wanted to return to the Ark in the end.

But Wen Xishu did not give him that opportunity.

Russell was dead.

Wen Xishu’s next target was the sickly old man, Smith.

Smith was very calm. When Wen Xishu revealed his intention to kill him, Smith smiled and said:

”Is it because of that kid Horn?”

Wen Xishu did not deny it.

Smith said:

”Then kill me. I have enjoyed a happy old age here. After discovering this world is false and learning that the concept I lost is a woman...”

”I have no desire to return to the Ark.”

Wen Xishu drew the Scorpio Knife.

Smith said:

”Actually, on the Ark, I lived very close to Horn. The reason I have survived until now is because, like Horn, I have some knowledge reserves that the Ark’s managers could use.”

Wen Xishu did not act immediately but patiently waited for Smith to finish speaking.

Smith said:

”Horn once said those old men should not be treated like this. Now... I am about to die just like those old men.”

”Young man, answer me this... What is the difference between Horn and the captain? The people who had to be sacrificed on the road of your great undertaking and the old men sacrificed on the captain’s path—what’s the difference?”

”Aren’t you and the captain the same kind of people?”

After saying this, Smith smiled and closed his eyes.

Wen Xishu did not answer, he simply killed Smith with one stroke.

But as he left, he pondered this question.

Yes, what is the difference between Horn and the captain?

After thinking for a long time, Wen Xishu realized... the methods of many kings in history were actually similar. Some things can’t be avoided, and another path can’t be found.

”Maybe the processes are the same, but the end goals are ultimately different.”

Wen Xishu did not get bogged down in this point; he continued with his actions.

He quickly found the soldier Eliot.

When Eliot learned that Wen Xishu was there to kill him, although he wasn’t as calm as Smith, he showed sufficient courage:

”Will you... make the Ark a better place?”

Wen Xishu nodded:

”I believe in Horn.”

Eliot also nodded:

”Can I avoid death?”

Wen Xishu shook his head:

”Sorry, given the current circumstances, I can’t trust you.”

Except for Judy and Mia, all the people who landed on the island were men. Wen Xishu could imagine that if the captain knew what the lost concept was after returning to the Ark...

Then those who returned would surely be tested—the test from women.

Only by ensuring that those who return do not want to stay on the island and have indeed lost the concept of women would the captain be at ease.

If only Horn and he returned, theoretically, the risk would be minimal, but Horn thought that if Judy returned, some things would be easier to explain and make sense.

But the other men would not necessarily be as safe.

Eliot was dead.

He clearly wanted to live, but to save Sirius, Wen Xishu did not dare to take the risk.

The last assassination target was the muscular black man, Jiru.

When Wen Xishu found Jiru, Jiru was already dead drunk. He thoroughly enjoyed this place and didn’t seem to care about the black shadows in the sky.

Here, Jiru could do whatever he wanted.

His status was unprecedentedly high, and he could indulge certain desires to his heart’s content.

So, Wen Xishu did not say much, just a flash of his figure, and after the dagger drew an arc, he left quietly.

At this point, everyone had died.

Only Mia and Judy remained. Mia had already been purified and had become part of this world. Those black tendrils had thoroughly brainwashed Mia. In Mia’s cognition, there were no women in this world.

Despite this, during the process, Horn had already made Mia complete her mission.

After Mia was brainwashed, she constantly emphasized that there were no women in this world, only men. But her words seemed to carry a kind of magic power, perhaps stemming from Mia’s own resistance to this concept.

After repeating it many times, Mia also woke up and no longer repeated those words, and the concept of women was completely erased from her cognition.

But those who had heard Mia’s words were already spread throughout the island.

If there was a day without women, the island would just come to an end like this.

...

...

Ark.

The scarlet sea fog finally dissipated, and the Sea Beasts, which used their giant tentacles to slap the Ark from afar, as usual, retracted their tentacles and hid their massive bodies in the depths of the ocean.

Wen Xishu sensed the familiar change of scenery, interwoven white lines deconstructing and reconstructing space.

Soon, he arrived inside the Ark from the city, with Horn and Judy beside him.

Wen Xishu looked above his head.

The portal was closed, no longer emitting eerie energy fluctuations.

The Sergeant Major had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Wen Xishu and the others appear, he immediately said:

”Congratulations to the three warriors, and thank you for your contribution to the Ark. Please follow me. We have prepared a banquet to welcome and cleanse you.”
