Chapter 13: The Destroyer

Wenren Jing, who is ranked first on the ladder of Desire Tower, once concluded that every floor and every area of ​​Desire Tower has its own story.

Although the people in the Three Towers have the same intelligence as humans, and they are even humans, they are also like NPCs, and are manipulated by their original fate.

Just like Jack, Remian, and Anderson.

Even though Wen Xishu’s appearance delayed Jack’s progress, Remian and Anderson would still bring despair and pain to Jack at the right time.

This is the trajectory of their desire tower.

Understanding the story content of the area is equivalent to mastering the trajectory of everyone’s desire tower, which helps to achieve a high level of completion.

When different players enter the same area and the same mission——

It will make everyone return to a certain time point and repeat their fate again.

Popular explanation – the copy is reopened.

But not long ago, Wen Ren Jing wrote another paper that caused a sensation in the entire bunker.

The paper mentions an existence called “Honkai Impactor”.

Unlike ordinary Three Towers people, the Honkai Impact 3rd may leave some memories every time the mission is restarted.

They may remember some of the memories from the last time the copy was “reopened”.

Over time, the Collapsers will realize that they are just living in a game world, a world that goes through cycles.

All efforts have lost their meaning, so it is better to enjoy life in the moment, wantonly enjoy, and continue to destroy.

The collapse of rituals and music is used to describe the people who are in ruins.

The world will restart anyway, it’s just a game anyway. Having fun is the most important thing.

Parents and friends are nothing but data. It doesn’t matter whether you play tricks on them, cheat them, or kill them.

Simply put, the Collapsers are like the protagonists of novels who are trapped in the same day——

Their behavior is unpredictable, they are extremely familiar with the area they live in, and they are extremely cruel.

They will try to antagonize players, defraud players, and trick players.

The higher the level, the higher the chance of a Collapser appearing.

This may lead to many different changes when different players enter the same area and accept the same task.

Therefore, the strategy for the upper levels of the Tower of Desire has a certain timeliness, because the original story line may be messed up by the Collapsers.

Naturally, the possibility of mission failure is high.

In Wenren Jing’s paper, it is also mentioned that the Collapsers are also bound by the rules of the Tower of Desire.

This may be the price they pay for becoming Honkai Impact 3rd.

If Wen Xishu had read this paper and knew that the Desire Tower prohibits all acts of violence—

Then he would understand why this “doctor” had such a dazed and confused expression.

Because the opponent is a Honkai Impact 3rd, and like the player, is bound by the rules of the Desire Tower.

So much so that, to kill an old lady, he couldn’t strangle her directly, but had to use the inertia of the wheelchair to push the old lady down.

In the original storyline, Jack was not actually diagnosed with stomach cancer.

He didn’t even have the money to go to the hospital for a check-up, so naturally he had no idea what was happening to him.

In the original storyline, Jack was indeed backstabbed by Remian and deceived by Anderson, but his mother did not die.

Jack always retained a bit of humanity, and he finally let Jennifer go.

But with the doctor pulling the strings behind the scenes, Jack’s fate changed.

The death of his mother was the real reason that crushed Jack’s sanity.

Jennifer also heard Jack’s words in that building –

“You have a mother, are you showing off to me?”

In the end, Jennifer turned around and chose her mother, and was killed by Jack.

However, Wen Xishu’s actions changed Jennifer’s fate and made Jennifer unable to turn back. Jack therefore did not kill Jennifer out of jealousy.

Back to the topic, Wen Xishu didn’t know these things, but he found the Honkai Impact 3rd.

“This shouldn’t be happening. What on earth went wrong? It’s obviously the same as last time, but why did you suddenly appear in the hospital?”

The doctor was surprised by Wen Xishu’s arrival.

Wen Xishu said:
“Tell me, who are you?”

The doctor shook his head slightly:

“Such questions are meaningless. I admit that I was a little surprised by your appearance. I must have made a mistake somewhere.”

“But it doesn’t matter. Since you can use violence, it proves that you are just an ordinary person. I will keep an eye on you after the restart.”

Wen Xishu didn’t understand, so he decided to try another way of communicating:
“Let me tell you a secret. I actually like playing the role of a good person with a stable mood and a kind face.”

The doctor didn’t know why the other party suddenly said that.

Wen Xishu’s smile became more friendly:

“Because only in this way, when I go crazy, I will feel extremely happy, as if the world is out of place.”

Before he could finish his words, a heavy punch came at him, which deformed the doctor’s handsome face.

The sound of a fist breaking the bridge of the nose was heard, but Wen Xishu did not stop.

He noticed that the fake doctor seemed to be afraid of violence.

This punch was just the beginning, and a violent beating followed. The doctor’s face became a bloody mess in an instant.

His pig-like face made him look much more honest.

Wen Xishu felt much better when he saw the man’s bruised face. The better he felt, the more strength he had in hitting people.

His smile began to change from kind to ferocious, and his animal nature gradually emerged. This was completely different from when he faced Jennifer.

The doctor had never been so frightened.

In his opinion, since this person can use violence, he must be just an ordinary person, not an “awakened person” like himself.

But looking at the other person’s smile which was becoming increasingly hostile, he began to wonder if this person was going to kill him.
As an ordinary person, shouldn’t you be afraid of the police in Moen City and consider the consequences of beating others?

For the first time, the law-breaking and corrupt Honkai Impact 3rd wanted to call on the Moren City police to maintain order.

Wen Xishu really wanted to beat the other person to death.

His logic is simple: the purpose of beating people is to “obtain intelligence” and “eliminate threats.”

It has to be one of the two, right? Since obtaining intelligence is impossible, then we will just fight to the death and eliminate the threat.

And inexplicably, Wen Xishu felt very happy. Using violence in the Desire Tower made him extremely happy.

It’s like sleeping in class. Of course, the bed is more comfortable than the desk. But the taboo of sleeping in class is really refreshing.

Wen Xishu actually didn’t need to worry about actually beating someone to death.

When he first used violence to pull the doctor, he saw the health bar.

And its own meager damage value.

Although his health bar was still healthy, the doctor began to beg for mercy after such a beating.

The high-level Collapsers in the Desire Tower may also possess certain supernatural abilities like Jack and others.

But the doctor didn’t have such qualifications. Faced with a thug like Wen Xishu who started from scratch, he really had no other choice but to beg for mercy and tell the truth.

Wen Xishu initially just thought that the other party was probably some kind of organization.

The world is about to become full of weirdness. Some people seem to have some potential, such as Jack, who can become Weird Jack.

Where there are such people, there are naturally people who try to manipulate them.

The bad news is that Wen Xishu guessed wrong, the other party’s level is not that high.

The good news is that this doctor’s presence is much more interesting.

Through the doctor’s description, Wen Xishu realized that this doctor was indeed a member of Santa Pagoda, but his behavioral logic and characteristics were becoming more and more like a “player”.

It’s really incredible that the NPC in the Desire Tower actually realized that he was experiencing some kind of cycle.

Wen Xishu was very surprised. This should be some kind of variant of the Santa people.

He could foresee that at a high level, there must be many such variables, and everyone’s original trajectory in the Desire Tower might be changed into a mess.

But in the twisted and twisted situations, reversing the ending of the characters made Wen Xishu feel very accomplished. …

……

The incident on the top floor of the nursing home did not cause any commotion.

Wen Xishu actually helped the nursing home a lot and resolved a potential crisis.

Half an hour later, Jack arrived at the nursing home.

Jack’s warm reunion with his mother made Wen Xishu feel bored.

He was already looking forward to returning to the Ghost Tower, but the tasks here had not yet been completed.

Wen Xishu told Jack a lot, telling him all his speculations, including about Jennifer.

“You mean… Jennifer and I are attracted to each other?” Jack found this unbelievable.

Wen Xishu said:
“You don’t like Yulia, is that true?”

Jack nodded:

“It’s true.”

Wen Xishu smiled and said:
“And you’re not a pedophile, and if you’re telling the truth, then you don’t like other children either. So Jennifer is the only one who is special.”

Jack nodded again. He had said before that apart from work he really didn’t want to come into contact with other children.

Although he also mentioned performing at school, it was because he was short of money.

After thinking carefully about Wen Xishu’s words, Jack did feel that Jennifer could arouse his desire to protect her.

This was a very strange thing. At least, he had seen so many children, some of whom were cuter than Jennifer, but none of them made Jack want to get close to her like Jennifer did.

Wen Xishu said:
“It may be hard for you to believe, but I do know something about the future.”

“Jack, Jennifer has the same qualifications as you. While she attracts you, you are also attracting her.”

“Harness that power and protect her. The era of disaster will soon arrive. Only if you support each other can you survive that era.”

Jack was surprised:
“You mean…Jennifer, like me, is contaminated by something?”

“It’s not pollution. Unfortunately, I have just started to get involved in these things, and I think my investigation journey still has a long way to go.” Wen Xishu said.

Jack nodded slowly.

He could indeed feel that there was something strange about his body.

And as the doctor of the “Honkai Impact 3”, he also knows that Jack is about to turn into a monster, and it is very likely that this change will happen within twelve hours.

The essence of the Honkai Impactors is that they are all people who enjoy fun. They just want to watch the fun and not mind getting into trouble.

So the doctor thought of letting Jack experience a broken life before he turned into a monster.

These things, along with Wen Xishu’s arrival and the unreasonable beatings, were all confessed by the doctor himself.

Wen Xishu knew the future and interrupted his own plan, which made the doctor terrified.

The doctor originally thought that Wen Xishu was just an “NPC”. But little did he know that he was the NPC in Wen Xishu’s eyes.

Now, the doctor believes that Wen Xishu is an awakened person like himself.

But this is also what he thinks is the most terrifying part. Because since Wen Xishu is also an awakener…why can’t he use violence, but Wen Xishu can?

In the doctor’s eyes, his life would restart every time. Even if he robbed a bank, killed someone or set a fire, it would be no problem, because he could restart anyway.

But he couldn’t do these things. He couldn’t even hit anyone.

But Wen Xishu could do it. The doctor couldn’t help but wonder, could there be a more advanced awakener?
This kind of self-imagination made him even more afraid of Wen Xishu. Both of them could sense the existence of the cycle… one could use violence, the other could not.

This is top-level suppression.

Wen Xishu didn’t know what the doctor was thinking, but his contemptuous look made the doctor even more afraid of him.

Jack seemed to have accepted his fate, and he did not doubt what Wen Xishu said.

After all, according to the doctor, he might very well undergo a mutation today or tomorrow.

Wen Xishu suddenly remembered something and said:
“I’ll leave this fake doctor to you. Your body will change very soon. After this, you will have great power.”

“You can torture him all you want, you’re welcome. Never repay evil with kindness when faced with someone who wants to ruin your life.”

When the doctor heard this, he just prayed that the cycle would start soon.

“Jack, a good guy is a weak card when played alone. If you must play it, then be a good guy with a sharp edge.”

“You need to be wild to some extent, otherwise you will get yourself hurt. I suggest you try Anderson and Remian.”

“To be honest, I really like stepping on watermelons. Once I step on them, the watermelons burst with juice. It’s also a good habit to keep some meat in the refrigerator.”

Wen Xishu was really worried that his intervention would make Gui Jack bored and uninteresting, so he made some reminders.

If there was enough time, he even wanted to make a perverted test paper and let Jack leave only when he could get 97 points.

Of course, this was just wishful thinking. He still had to complete the last part of this mission.

Before leaving, Wen Xishu did not forget to get some gold coins from the “boss”.

He took the money from the “doctor’s” pocket.

……

……

night.

In a high-end Western restaurant in Moen City, Wen Xishu invited Yulia to have dinner together.

There are many notices outside the restaurant – Beware of rats. It seems that Moen City has been plagued by rats recently.

However, this high-end restaurant is still doing good business, and the waiters have obviously put a lot of effort into driving away the rats.

Wen Xishu knew very well how to make Yulia happy.

But this is not a novel for women. It’s the end of the world and we’re just talking about a trivial love affair.

His only purpose was to get closer to Jennifer. He wasn’t even interested in exposing her secrets, which most people would talk about.

Since Wen Xishu had gained the favor of Yu Jennifer when he was in the Weird Tower, little Jennifer became very close to Wen Xishu.

While Yulia was enjoying the red wine, Wen Xishu suggested having a private chat with little Jennifer.

This made Yulia very happy.

A handsome man, much younger than herself, who looked to be at the most energetic age, seemed to have some money, and was willing to be nice to her daughter. She felt that she had met her true love.

Not far away, Jennifer was jumping for joy and smiling. But Yulia didn’t know that this was the conversation between the two.

“Jennifer, do you think it’s cool to be a monster?”

“Ah? Can it really change? That would be so cool!”

“Aren’t you afraid of rotting flesh, bones, skulls, and other such things?”

“It’s scary, but if it’s Uncle Jack, it’s cool.”

Wen Xishu really likes this kind of double-standard little girl:
“Yeah, remember your agreement with Uncle Jack? He will invite you to his show.”

“I remember, I really wanted to go, but my mother wouldn’t let me.”

“It’s okay. Uncle Jack will be very cool next. He will appear in front of you in a very cool manner. I believe that performance will be unforgettable for you for the rest of your life.”

“really?”

“Of course I wouldn’t lie to you. Jennifer, the world is going to change drastically, but don’t be afraid, because Uncle Jack will be with you.”

“That’s great! I want to play with Uncle Jack too!”

Wen Xishu touched Jennifer’s head.

The data in his eyes has changed:

[Jennifer’s current happiness value: 99. Mission status: Completed.]

[After completing the Weird Tower Trial, the rewards for the Desire Tower Trial will be unlocked simultaneously. ]

This means that Wen Xishu can obtain double rewards from both the Weird Tower and the Desire Tower.

He smiled just as happily, and in Yulia’s eyes, his smile was very childlike.

But this smile, with a slight change in the eyes, is no different from the smile of Weird Jack.
