Chapter 1295: Chapter 409: The Bunker Is Also a Tower
It’s strange, actually, from Wen Xishu’s perspective, 001 had plenty of time to discuss certain issues with him.
But for some reason, he told the old principal additionally.
Albert first talked about Wen Xishu’s predicament at the time.
It wasn’t until Wen Xishu heard it that he realized he had almost died, in a crisis completely beyond his awareness and resistance.
He couldn’t help but feel a little scared. Considering the guide’s reaction, Wen Xishu suddenly understood—
No wonder those three heads reacted so strongly; in their perception, this level was almost impossible to clear.
Wen Xishu also realized that he didn’t make any missteps throughout this level...
However, even until the end, life and death were not under his control.
The key to victory lay in "me." If the fundamental nature of "my" personality was even a bit selfish, or to be more precise—lacked a broad view, I would be destined to die.
"It was a grand rescue effort, involving people from both the bunker and the Three-Tower Battlefield."
"You have to thank everyone, and of course, everyone thanks you."
"I haven’t seen such a spectacle in a long time."
Wen Xishu nodded:
"It seems, in the bunker, I am no longer the detestable remnant of the Wen Family."
Albert laughed heartily:
"Hahaha, of course not. Strength is just one aspect. Your strength possesses significant altruism. The Five Elders are strong as well; their power is above yours."
"But their strength is more like exploitation of the weak."
"You’re different, though. You’ve brought hope to countless people. You’ve also made the bunker’s resources abundant in a short time."
Wen Xishu smiled bitterly:
"I didn’t do it for the Bunker People; my original intention was just to survive."
Albert shook his head:
"Gentlemen judge by deeds."
"Anyway, I should talk to you about the extra content that the strongest you mentioned."
"Honestly, that ’you’ is incredibly strong, unimaginably strong. It’s good news, at least now I know the possibilities you can achieve in the future."
"However, what I’m about to say is bad news."
The strongest ’you’ told you many things about the Three-Tower Battlefield, right?"
Wen Xishu nodded, his greatest gain came from knowing the existence of the Outer God and acquiring the ability to discern the "gifts" from the Outer God.
"What he explained to me was not related to the Three-Tower Battlefield, but the bunker."
"In his universe, the bunker’s birth actually had nothing to do with Old Jin."
"Old Jin was merely a guided individual. He was the bunker’s first legend, a great pioneer, but not the creator."
"Old Jin mentioned the term ’Outer God,’ saying he was an exceptionally excellent reformer, with strong qualifications and temperament. Such people easily become rulers in the Three-Tower Battlefield, but also get noticed by the Outer Gods."
"He told me that many gifts are fortunate and beneficial for humanity in the short term."
"But the Outer God’s gift comes with a cost. Old Jin received clues about the bunker. Although he saved many people, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee eternal safety for them."
"The bunker is not a peaceful place. It’s a haven or a trap depending on human behavior."
"If mankind only seeks comfort and chooses merely to survive in the bunker, using Desire Tower to safely exchange for food..."
"Humanity will face catastrophic destruction."
"Fortunately, under Old Jin’s leadership, many people are doing the right things."
"But we still can’t avoid Deceit Tower’s big swallow, not until you appeared."
Mr. Jin is a legend, Albert is the second, and Wen Xishu is the third.
Wen Xishu actually subtly sensed that the bunker was peculiar.
The bunker seems like an endless world, appearing small but capable of infinite expansion.
Yet now, he’s truly worried about what the old principal mentioned earlier regarding the rescue of countless bunker people and the Three Tower War’s qualified rescuers.
Despite being in the Deceit Tower at that time, 001 could somehow access the bunker through Deceit Tower’s chessboard?
At this moment, Wen Xishu’s inner sense of security had already crumbled slightly.
The bunker felt like a safe zone, an absolute safe zone, a comforting return after a weary journey.
But not long ago, 001, a product from the Deceit Tower, indeed utilized the rules of the Deceit Tower to reach the bunker.
And pulled countless people to some place.
Although this matter is essentially a rescue, upon careful reflection, it’s a deeply terrifying situation.
This interaction grid seems like a kind of prophecy.
Albert just happened to say:
"The relationship between the bunker and the Three Towers is very close. There are certain channels between the towers, like how Deceit Tower can switch to Desire Tower."
"And the bunker is the fourth tower. The stratification within the bunker is very similar to a tower."
"I’ve actually thought about this for a long time. Old Jin agreed as well."
"Of course, back then, we didn’t know why the bunker showed such characteristics. Why it appeared like a tower."
"But, thanks to you, the answer to this question was given by that strongest you... No, I should say the temporarily stronger you."
"Because this tower is meant to be climbed by people."
Wen Xishu was suddenly startled. He didn’t quite understand the meaning of this statement, but a bizarre answer flashed through his mind instantly.
"The bunker... can be climbed by non-bunker creatures?"
Wen Xishu found it hard to benefit himself.
Albert said:
"Our exploration of the Three Towers’ hierarchy determines the bunker’s phase."
Wen Xishu asked:
