Chapter 15: An Interlude in the Tower of Slaughter

Slaughter Tower, twenty-first floor.

Most people in the Desire Tower would hang out below the first twenty floors. Once you get to the 20th floor or above, it becomes possible that some targets will be difficult to please.

But the Luta is different.

The exploration of the Weird Tower has only just begun, and people know very little about it. However, the exploration of the Slaughter Tower has been going on for some years.

There is no such thing as safety in the Slaughter Tower. There is a risk of death on every level of the Slaughter Tower.

Because of monsters.

These monsters are not completely unable to communicate, but they have a strong hatred for humans.

He almost refuses all communication, kills everyone he meets, and kills everyone in seconds if they show their heads.

The 21st floor of the Slaughter Tower is considered a death plateau by everyone.

Apart from the teachers and students of Luta Academy, there are very few bunker climbers who would come to such a high level.

“Damn it… I’m still seventy short of the required number of missions. But if I don’t find a place to light a bonfire and reduce the killing value, I will turn into a monster.”

Said the tall and bloody second-year senior from Luta Academy.

His name is Zhang Wei, and he is one of the most influential people in the second year of the Luta Academy. Not long ago, on the seventeenth floor of the Luta, he obtained the powerful Killing Sequence 244: Armed Bone.

He also owns the tradable Killing Sequence 303: The Will of Slaughter rented from a teacher in the academy.

He had equipment sequences in both sequence slots on his body, and thought he could show off by bringing the freshmen along, so he went to the 21st floor to commit suicide.

If I can successfully pass the twenty-first floor with my junior fellow students and then return to Luta College, it will be so glorious.

The ideal is full, but the reality is cruel.

The city of Moren in the Slaughter Tower is full of mutant creatures.

This second-year student at Luta Academy was a man of the hour, killing people here for four hours…

All they killed were monsters, rats.

It is said that someone once saw an area on the 21st floor of the Desire Tower that was covered with warning signs saying “Beware of Rat”.

But that was in the Desire Tower, and the people in the Slaughter Tower didn’t care.

But when we got to the Slaughter Tower, these rats were far more terrifying than the elite monsters on the tenth floor.

Zhang Wei had a solid foundation and kept resisting the attacks of the rats. But he could only resist.

“Senior, will we die here?” The freshman of Class 2061 said tremblingly, his heart full of regret.

The freshman has noticed that the senior’s expression is not right, and the side effects of the killing will are beginning to appear.

Zhang Wei, whose killing value is too high, is now trying his best to suppress his inner desire to kill with reason.

He knew very well that if he didn’t find a place to light a bonfire and lower the killing value…

Then you will become a part of the Slaughter Tower.

Zhang Wei regretted that he should not have underestimated Moren City. Where Xun Hui could come, he might not be able to come.

But at the moment, he couldn’t get rid of these incredibly fast rats.

That’s not the worst.

He felt a terrifying aura. Not far away, a super huge rat was slowly approaching.

He couldn’t even check any of the mouse’s panels… it was a completely out-of-this-world monster for him at this stage.

They cannot fight, but they cannot avoid it. These two students from Luta Academy may pay the price for their recklessness today.

Unless… they go into that building.

Jack’s spooky building.

Zhang Wei noticed that the rats didn’t even dare to approach the building not far behind him.

During the battle, he unknowingly approached the building.

But he had heard some rumors that at some levels, there were hidden monsters that must not be provoked.

These monsters have their own territories, unlike those monsters that roam around the city.

As long as the tower climbers do not approach or enter this area, the battle with these monsters will not be triggered.

Once you get close, it will be a boss battle with a very low chance of winning.

Zhang Wei is an elite sophomore and will surely become one of the strongest men in the world in the future.

But he knew very well that in that building, there was someone hiding that even the teachers of Luta Academy did not dare to provoke.

Suddenly… Zhang Wei and his junior widened their eyes.

There was a noise coming from the old building. The rats around suddenly retreated several meters.

The door of the old building actually opened. A young girl walked out from the shadow of the old building. She was completely different from the scary monster Zhang Wei had imagined.

It looks… like the girls in Yuta Academy. No, she looks more innocent than them.

Having said that, Zhang Wei suddenly became alert.

Because even the giant rat, which he was no match for, fled in fear.

Zhang Wei stood in front of his junior, taking a defensive stance. He knew that he had no chance of winning.

But he had no choice. As a senior, he couldn’t let his junior who didn’t even have a sequence go and die.

But the girl had no intention of fighting. She just said calmly:

“Would you like to come in and rest for a while? We can allow you to stay for a while today. I have something to ask you.”

The junior was very scared. He didn’t understand what was going on, but he had heard a saying…

The monsters in the Slaughter Tower are all mortal enemies of mankind. Do not try to communicate with them.

The girl looked a little lazy:

“While you are still human, you can come in and take shelter.”

“If you don’t want to come in, you can stay there. I’m not interested in whether you live or die, but I need to find out about someone from you.”

“You look like you have the same skin color as him.”

Zhang Wei was puzzled.

He was actually more shocked than his junior. Because the more experience he had in exploring the Slaughter Tower, the more he understood how outrageous this situation was.

The existence of suspected regional bosses will not communicate with humans at all. Once they detect humans, they will immediately eliminate human existence.

But the girl at the door of the old building seemed to have no intention of killing. If the other party wanted to attack, I would probably find it difficult to resist.

Could it be that by killing the mouse myself, I triggered a hidden mission?

Zhang Wei could never have imagined that a death row prisoner far away in the Weird Tower would save him from the Slaughter Tower after completing the Weird Tower mission.

“Who… who do you want to ask about?” Zhang Wei decided to try to communicate.

The girl slowly said:

“Do you know Wen Xishu?”

……

……

Despite the dizziness and confusion caused by the frequent space changes, Wen Xishu felt quite comfortable.

It’s like the feeling of a patient on an operating table after being given anesthesia.

One moment, he was in Jack’s old building, but the next moment, he opened his eyes and found himself in a strange house.

The room is full of clocks and doors.

Wristwatches, pocket watches, wall clocks, sundials, hourglasses…

Wooden door, iron door, crooked door, straight door…

These elements were all around him, making the already dizzy Wen Xishu even more confused, but when he looked at the figure in front of him——

He suddenly felt the dizziness and drowsiness disappear, and he woke up instantly.

The man in front has three heads.

Three pagodas guide people.

Everyone who completes their first trip up the tower comes here to see it.

But Wen Xishu didn’t expect that this guide would have such a strange appearance.

But the guide was also very curious. He saw something from the reflection in Wen Xishu’s pupils.

“It’s really interesting. Who was the last person to see our three heads?”

“It’s the killer embryo.”

“Oh~ I like that killer. He killed so many people. But he was kidnapped by the third brother!”

Three different heads actually started a conversation.

What surprised Wen Xishu was that the content of the words seemed to indicate——

Not everyone can see the three heads of the guide.

“Welcome, welcome, a newcomer who is suitable for all three tower systems. I am the guide, the one who will lead you to the top of the three towers.”

Three heads spoke at the same time.
