Three Towers Game

But Albert is different. He believes that on the seventieth floor, aside from Sagittarius, no monster can take a punch from him.

It might as well be a gamble, bringing along two promising talents.

A person like Albert could easily choose not to climb beyond the ninetieth floor, opting instead to mentor newcomers through team formation.

But Wen Xishu knows why the old headmaster doesn’t do that.

Because in the old headmaster’s world, time is pressing. He refuses to waste even a moment, spending almost all his time on killing, just to quickly reach the 98th floor, then the 99th, and ultimately break through to the hundredth floor.

The old headmaster lived over ninety years and went through two phases in his life.

The first phase was when thousands of years of human civilization suddenly ended.

Perhaps Xun Hui and Wenren Mirror think there is plenty of time, that many problems can be solved gradually.

The Bunker had just ended the great devouring, everything seemed prosperous... It all seemed so beautiful.

But Albert doesn’t think that way. Having lived through the apocalypse, he is always aware that the collapse of the world is just a moment away.

He always assumes that the Bunker might start collapsing in the next instant.

That’s why he is pleased to directly face Sagittarius, as it is more efficient than slowly investigating Xiaojin and Old Jin.

But this time, to deal with Sagittarius, Albert will return to the seventieth floor.

”If I lose... you two will also die. Then the Bunker will have no future, so don’t assume I’ll lose. Bringing death row inmates, who gain power, will only cause more trouble. Bringing two promising talents, if they die, they die, but if they live, they will improve.”

Albert’s words made sense in their own way.

In fact, Wen Xishu sees from the killings of the old headmaster and Xun Hui, that the old headmaster is not truly a ”good person” in essence. In this apocalypse, the old headmaster can accept anyone’s death.

Even Mr. Jin.

In a gamble with fifty percent death and fifty percent improvement, the old headmaster, such a person, would gamble all ten times.

They don’t care about individual fates, unless an individual’s talent gives them a glimpse of hope.

So under the arrangement of the old headmaster—

Nissen and Yue Yun, these two first-year students, got the opportunity to experience the seventieth floor in advance.

Nissen and Yue Yun also know that this time they are either lying down as winners or losing as dead dogs. They are truly afraid.

But thinking of Wen Xishu, Xun Hui, and the old headmaster going together, they didn’t find it as scary anymore.

So though they were timid, they agreed to go.

And thus, the team to deal with Sagittarius was formed.

Cheerleaders—Xun Hui, Wen Xishu, Nissen, Yue Yun.

King—Albert Napolitano.

Wen Xishu also didn’t find it shameful, anyway... in battles of this caliber, Xun Hui can only be a backdrop.

Evelyn and Wenren Mirror knew they couldn’t persuade them, so they could only accept it. And choose to keep it secret for the next week.

If after a week, Xun Hui’s name is absent from the Celestial Ladder List... Wenren Mirror couldn’t even imagine the chaos that the Bunker would plunge into.

…

…

After the team assembled, they quickly started to form a team, activated the login device, and entered the Slaughter Tower’s rest area.

The Celestial Essence area of the Slaughter Tower quickly saw the usual faces there.

Xun Hui, Albert.

But Wen Xishu’s consciousness transferred to the rest area slightly later, because he had an extra step to take compared to the others.

The only chance Wen Xishu had to impact the battle likely lay with the Mad Dice and Scorpion Knife.

At the moment of activating the login device and hearing the welcome to the Three Towers game...

He began to pray for the first time, that this time the Mad Dice and Scorpion Knife could provide the best assistance.
