CHAPTER 152: CHAPTER 80: REVISITING DECEIT TOWER

[When the courage to resist is born, fate has already quietly changed.]

Ah Miao thought of what she did in the Deceit Tower when she saw this sentence.

At this moment, she might understand the plight of the An Family Brothers better than Wen Xishu.

[On one side is the entity feared since birth, a god feared by the entire family and even a nation, with endless wealth and power. On the other side is her brother. This choice was always simple. To this day, the An Family finally made a different choice.]

[The An Family Brothers will live and go to Longxia, which is the final act of mercy by Jicheng’s most terrifying Demon King before his transformation.]

[Perhaps in the future, they will return to their homeland, and by then, they will be surprised to find the Sanqiu Group still exists.]

[Hidden Task – Jicheng Demon King has been activated.]

[Jicheng Demon King: The Sanqiu Group will not be destroyed, and the advent of a new era will not obliterate his past achievements. Before the apocalypse, people feared the name An Rongzai. He was the true king of Jicheng. After the apocalypse, he became the true Demon King of Jicheng. The miracles of the Sanqiu Group will continue even after the apocalypse.]

[The maximum completion rating of this task can reach level seven. It will be automatically received when the Tower Climber reaches the corresponding level of the Deceit Tower.]

[Deceit Tower story line change: After the An Family twins escaped from Incheon Port to Longxia, the Miracle Plan was temporarily shelved due to the lack of core sacrifices and Scorpio’s tokens.]

However, An Rongzai did not give up on the plan. The heretical actions of the Miracle Mansion were placed on An Jincheng, and An Rongzai issued a statement cutting ties with An Jincheng and An Youxuan, and subsequently greatly improved the configuration of the Miracle Mansion.

In the Jiangnan District, Jiangdong District, Yongdongpu District, West Gate District, East Gate District, Longshan District, and Guangjin District, Miracle Mansion appeared.

The completion of the seven Miracle Mansions and the various benefits of the Sanqiu Group soon brought praise from people. An Rongzai seized the second chance and initiated the Second Miracle Ascension.]

[Deceit Tower task restart: You are a new resident in the Miracle Mansion. Seven families will be shattered in that apartment, and seven people will die mysteriously. Let us turn back time, returning to seven days before everything happened. You, as an investigator, live next door to one of the seven households. Explore the apartment as much as possible and survive the next seven days, or you will be consumed by the apartment.]

But we still hope that you, who have performed admirably, can survive and rescue the other residents.]

[Due to the multiplayer mechanism, the task will automatically complete at the best completion rate, so the Desire Tower task "Youngest Son of the Conglomerate" is pre-determined as completed.]

[Returning to Deceit Tower soon.]

...

Wen Xishu realized he only guessed half correctly.

He never expected that the old man of the An Family was so perverse? After the Miracle Plan failed, he could create another one from scratch?

All around was a white light, swallowing up all the scenes and environment, leaving only Wen Xishu and Ah Miao.

Ah Miao exclaimed:

"What’s happening?"

Wen Xishu was rather calm:

"It seems we completed the preliminary task of the level seven mission. Both An Youxuan and An Jincheng survived. Now we are in a special space before returning to the Deceit Tower."

Ah Miao did not expect this:

"This is my first time experiencing this! Does this mean we will have a very high completion rate?"

Wen Xishu was in a good mood:

"Yes, very high. The brothers both survived and regarded each other as their most important goal. This should be the key to this mission. We did it."

"Ah Miao, perhaps you will also have a level six completion rate."

Ah Miao did not dare to hope for level six. To her, getting a level four completion rate in the seventh layer of the Deceit Tower would mean enough merit points from the exchanged resources to cover her surgery.

All of this felt somewhat dreamlike, especially since she had been nervously evading those police officers just a moment ago.

Ah Miao calmed herself:

"To be honest, I thought An Jincheng’s brother didn’t trust him."

Wen Xishu smiled even wider:

"There are parents who don’t love their children, siblings who kill each other, friends who forget loyalty for profit, colleagues who stab from behind..."

"I thought the Desire Tower was full of trash, and the Deceit Tower was full of pitiful ghosts... But it seems, Ah Miao, we were too arrogant."

Ah Miao suddenly felt that Wen Xishu seemed very happy. This happiness was extremely pure.

In fact, Wen Xishu had smiled before, but not as brightly as now.

"It turns out that in the Deceit Tower, there are many interesting people, not just the An Family brothers. Even the old man behind the scenes is interesting."

Ah Miao asked:

"The chairman of the Sanqiu Group, I thought he would be our enemy in the Desire Tower... the kind of enemy we all have to work together to defeat."

During the process of evading the police car, Wen Xishu briefly told Ah Miao some information about the task.

Ah Miao had some understanding of the whole story, but not as much as Wen Xishu, who had personally experienced those memories.

Wen Xishu nodded:

"He is, but this time, the task is not about defeating him. This time, the task is just to give the two brothers a way out. An Rongzai is only making a cameo in this task."

"Strictly speaking, this is a win-win-win situation."

In An Rongzai’s life, there were many instances of starting with hope, seeing hope destroyed, and then making a strong comeback when everyone thought it was over.
