Three Towers Game

Chapter 1462: Chapter 470: Twisted Gamer

(Today there will be two Chapters, one main story and one extra.)

"You just earned currency, right? The game coins here can be used for many purposes, like upgrading your equipment."

Kelly said to Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu was very cautious:

"Is the cost just paying money?"

Kelly blinked:

"Not entirely, at weapon level one, there’s a risk of upgrade failure. If it fails, the weapon’s attributes will decrease, but at least the weapon will still be there."

Wen Xishu sneered:

"Are you saying that after I’ve worked hard to earn game coins and given them to you, the stuff I buy might be trash?"

"Doesn’t that make players beggars?"

Kelly just smiled and looked at Wen Xishu:

"So, do you want to try?"

Wen Xishu said:

"I won’t try."

Kelly was somewhat surprised, after all, in the previous cycle, Wen Xishu also said "Doesn’t that make players beggars?"

But after saying that in the previous cycle, Wen Xishu decided to give it a try.

Considering that, in the eyes of most designers, players are indeed like beggars.

Almost...

Almost everyone who challenges this building makes the same choices in repeated cycles.

Although the game itself changes, such as the scene layout, monsters, and puzzles on each floor could all change.

But players will experience memory loss.

Many of the choices they make won’t change at all.

Yet this cycle has the exact same start as the previous one, but Wen Xishu actually changed his mind.

This is quite amazing.

Kelly saw a glimmer of hope.

This man...

He might be able to break the cycle. But right now, it’s not entirely certain if this is just a coincidence.

After all... His responses in the earlier attempts were identical.

If in the next cycle, he makes a different choice, perhaps she can do something for him for free.

After all, the rules only prohibit mentioning certain things, she can just keep quiet.

"Hehe, then good luck to you. You always manage to surprise people." Kelly said with a smile.

The elevator doors opened; the third floor had been reached.

Kelly almost instinctively wanted to add:

"The third floor is the ’Mirror House’, be careful not to be deceived by your own shadow~ Oh, and if you find the ’shattered shards’, bring them back to me; I can help craft something good."

She almost blurted it out, but considering that in the last cycle she gave a hint, she had to wait a long time to see Wen Xishu again.

This cycle, better not to say it.

Let Wen Xishu die quickly, start the next cycle quickly, and it will allow for faster verification.

So, Kelly shut her mouth.

Wen Xishu had no idea that an NPC could have such a complicated mind.

He looked at the scene outside the door, feeling a sense of familiarity once more. As the elevator doors closed behind him, Kelly and the furnace vanished together.

...

...

The third floor was indeed the Mirror House.

Mirrors on both sides of the corridor weren’t static: every so often, all mirrors would ripple simultaneously, as if stones were thrown into water.

After the ripples, the reflections inside the mirrors would undergo subtle changes.

Some mirrors had tiny, crystalline vines growing along their edges, producing a wind chime-like sound when touched.

Wen Xishu stopped immediately in front of the first mirror.

In the first mirror, Wen Xishu saw himself in the mirror...

Holding a dagger, the mirror’s reflection proactively demonstrated a combo: pursuing stab, backhand elbow spin stab, concealment, backstab.

The feeling of being stuck in endless cycles intensified.

Upon careful thought, it seemed that all the bosses kept emphasizing that they had encountered him before. But none would reveal it explicitly.

Instead, they used language to trap him in this line of thinking.

The mirror seemed to be doing the same now.

"Could it be that earlier, I used a dagger?"

"It looks like the dagger enhances the concealment skill."

The Wen Xishu in the mirror suddenly put away the dagger, then waved to the real Wen Xishu outside the mirror, who was thinking and confused at the moment.

The Wen Xishu in the mirror actually made a beckoning gesture and then brought one hand to his mouth, suggesting he had a "come closer, I want to tell you a secret" posture.

Wen Xishu did not get closer.

The sense of danger prevented him from doing so; instead, he moved on to the next mirror.

Almost every mirror showed a different version of Wen Xishu. There was even one facing a group of monsters, eventually overpowered and torn apart by them, his body pixelating.

That Wen Xishu was pleading for help before dying, reaching out to the real Wen Xishu outside the mirror, but Wen Xishu did not save him.

One broken mirror with a bronze frame reflected Wen Xishu in different outfits—such as medieval armor, futuristic tactical gear, and ninja attire.

Clearly, Wen Xishu had already collected multiple sets of equipment at this point, switching outfits to deal with enemies in different scenarios.

This version also gestured, inviting Wen Xishu to come closer, and even showcased his top-tier gear to Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu could indeed see it.

Ninja shoes of purple quality, which automatically trigger concealment during teleportation.

And a strong purple-quality kunai, capable of releasing a powerful Clone Technique during teleportation.

Clearly, it’s a highly effective setup built around "teleportation."

Very useful, but appearing in the mirror, Wen Xishu wasn’t interested.

"Failed..."

"If all these mirror versions of me are as I suspect, different periods of myself, then it seems..."

"I’ve been in this game for a long time?"

For once, Wen Xishu felt a chill.

He thought he hadn’t lost his memory.
