Chapter 1331 - 422: Pen Town Investigation Concludes (Part 2)
"I wish for the world to return to its rightful state, to wish for peace and prosperity for the nation. Do you find that amusing?""Wen Xishu, sometimes you don’t need to use jokes to tell the truth. Why can’t we be more honest? You’ve already carried a lot, and you’re willing—even happy—to do so. But it seems you haven’t forgiven some things yet."
"Next question, if possible, who would you like to accomplish that task with? The task of changing the constellation curse."
Wen Xishu thought for a moment:
"Gemini, I want to meet him. Will this answer increase my chances of encountering him behind the door?"
"I cannot foresee the future. Due to your use of special permissions, your rewards won’t be too high. I can only ask one last question—"
"If you truly have the chance to complete that task, but you can only solve one of the many problems with that pen; for example, the constellation curse, the fate of some Outer God, or your own destiny... which one would you choose?"
"I don’t know, would I need to read that book? That book should be quite an extraordinary item, right?"
"Yes, it is paired with the pen and represents the strongest power of the Commerce Association’s owner."
"Outer Gods have so many means."
"All questions are concluded. Although you can only achieve Level 6 completion, you possess powerful authority to change our final judgment result. See you next time. Now, check your gains."
Wen Xishu looked at the panel.
Code: Wen Xishu.
Slaughter Tower Level: 35. Slaughter Value Limit: 670.
Deceit Tower Level: 62. Anti-Magic Value: 164 points.
Desire Tower Level: 56. Luck Value: 140 points.
Remaining Tower Power Value: 33 points. (2 points gained from facilities)
Sequence Slot Quantity: 10.
The Desire Tower Level increased by two levels, indeed not much.
But the Tower Power Value increased by two points.
Wen Xishu understood with a glance; these two Tower Power Value points came from Ten Thousand Swords Manor.
It seems that the facilities produced weapons that can be refined into Tower Power Value.
This is great.
This time, Wen Xishu received a facility reward.
Level 6 Facility: Personal Residence (Pen Town Special Edition).
In simple terms, it’s a personal residence for Wen Xishu. It’s a two-story house.
In his residence, Wen Xishu can unlock various items with the pen.
But these items cannot be taken out of the house.
He can use the pen to DIY a residence to his liking.
This thing is purely for enjoyment, so Wen Xishu is not very concerned about it.
What he cares more about is that he received three free runes.
So-called free runes can be embedded in any sequence.
Wen Xishu embedded them in the Spiritual Bullet Screen.
These three runes are: immune to thirst, immune to hunger, immune to fatigue.
Enhanced Ironman, now he truly is a premium employee of Three Towers Company.
Of course, with the help of Quality Upgrade, the things he obtained are not limited to just these.
He also received an item.
"Campfire: Pen Town Special Edition."
This is an orange item commonly used in Three Towers with simple and direct effects.
"As long as you’re not within the target’s sight, once you use the campfire, you will forcibly gain 15 minutes of safe time. You can recover and heal during this period. However, the item has a usage interval of 24 hours."
This is practically a pause Divine Artifact.
Even when facing a powerful enemy, as long as you can quickly evade behind them, you can forcibly pause the battle for 15 minutes and gain an absolutely safe 15 minutes.
Wen Xishu now has another means of survival.
"This thing... might have miraculous effects in the book-stealing task. Now, it’s just a matter of deciding when to start that task."
There’s nothing else.
The gains aren’t particularly abundant, but with runes, a powerful item, and facilities, it doesn’t seem that bad.
If the forced tower exit hadn’t been triggered, perhaps the gained campfire would have been even stronger.
But life is more important than anything. Wen Xishu does not regret it afterward.
Just when Wen Xishu thought everything was over, he received a message unexpectedly.
"Leo Goodwill +20."
A one-time increase of 20 goodwill was quite unexpected for Wen Xishu.
Could it be Reid?
...
...
Lion City.
This city was not originally called Lion City; it was a city with maple leaves and a coastline.
Because the flame-like maple leaves were beautiful, Leon liked it here very much, so he eventually decided to make it his headquarters.
So far, only Leon has been clear about making a city his zodiac headquarters.
Other zodiacs merely have a hidden area.
Some zodiac areas are very small, and some don’t even have an area, constantly fleeing and wandering to avoid being hunted.
For example, Capricorn.
Leon doesn’t care about these things. He also knows that in his city, there are many spies from other zodiacs, as well as some non-zodiac forces.
He regularly cleans up those who go too far. Of course, some change their attitudes over time due to his personality and the governance of Lion City.
Today, Leon is in a good mood.
"Reid, I was almost ready to hold a funeral for you. I even had a manuscript prepared by the Guards to honor your glorious battle death, ready to be handed to your family."
"That place is no joke, yet you came back alive."
On a street full of maple leaves, dozens of powerful Lion City warriors are raising bowls, drinking merrily at the banquet.
Reid said:
"Hehe, Sir Leon, I apply to become your Guard!"
"I want to challenge one of the Four Great Guards!"
Reid’s red hair danced like burning flames as he passionately looked at the Four Great Guards. They were Leon’s strongest subordinates, the ones who could stay by Leon’s side and accompany him to eliminate the mightiest forces in the Three Towers War.
