Three Towers Game-Chapter 759 - 222: The Horn Miracle (Part 2)
The most crucial thing...
From beginning to end, Wen Xishu received no messages from Horn. There wasn't even any increase in favorability with Sirius...
Does this mean that these two are dead? Sirius went off alone, but with no increase in favorability, it's highly probable that the result of the journey is death.
And going off alone implies that Horn didn't go with Sirius.
Horn naturally doesn't belong to the Bunker and cannot return there...
At that moment, Horn's words echoed in Wen Xishu's mind.
"It seems you came from some correct answer."
"There may indeed be some way for me to leave with you, but that would mean choosing the easy way, not the right way, for me."
"I will do my utmost to make the Ark the correct answer."
Some people lose the meaning of life once they leave their rightful place.
Just like Albert wouldn't abandon the Bunker and directly choose a correct and comfortable world.
Wen Xishu sighed softly:
"So I can make this mistake as well. I can also act irrationally when I care too much."
Sirius asked:
"What's wrong?"
Wen Xishu shook his head and said:
"We'll have to go through it all again, but this time, we can't take Horn with us. Fortunately, I still have a remedy for regret."
The scorching light of Scorpio Slash shone forth. At this moment, time began to rewind.
...
...
Save Point 01.
When the Evil Sea Giant Beast started hitting the Ark, and the familiar sense of imbalance was felt...
Wen Xishu looked at Horn:
"Horn, we once fought side by side in the Deceit Tower, we admired each other. I really wish you could leave with me..."
"But I've seen it, that's not your correct answer."
"I'm sorry... The thought of letting a friend face so many enemies alone, whom even I cannot overcome, makes me feel too selfish."
"But since you've already made your resolve, I bless you, I hope you can turn the Ark into a correct answer!"
Sirius didn't feel the save load at all.
Only Wen Xishu's memory wasn't affected by the save, everyone else reverted to the state at the time of the save.
Horn looked at Wen Xishu gratefully:
"To have such a confidant in life, I have no regrets."
Sirius urged:
"Hurry! There's not much time!"
Wen Xishu reached out his hand:
"Good luck, the Ark isn't important to me, but you are."
"Wen Xishu, I will remember you. Although you changed the past, preventing me from experiencing that future... I trust in my future self."
Their hands clasped together.
Wen Xishu gritted his teeth and finally parted from Horn, joining Sirius in diving into the decayed flesh passage.
For Wen Xishu, everything was normal. Although more time was spent... The relentless swimming of the Evil Sea Giant Beast allowed them to escape successfully at last.
But for Horn, it was much more thrilling.
Horn calculated the outcome... Confirmed if he returned the same way—
He would inevitably encounter major figures like Renault and Von Neumann. He hesitated not at all and chose to enter the time turbulence at the prison's outskirts directly.
Through the use of time turbulence, Horn successfully masked his presence.
After Horn vanished, merely seconds later, Von Neumann was transported nearby by Renault's ability.
It was truly a hair's breadth moment; had Horn's decision been even slightly delayed—
He would have been interrogated by Von Neumann.
Luckily, entering the time turbulence meant losing his presence completely.
Simultaneously, Von Neumann also immediately realized Sirius's escape.
No one would think that all this was related to a person with paralyzed legs.
Von Neumann and Renault began their pursuit.
As for Horn, he embarked on an entirely new journey.
...
...
Inside the Evil Sea Giant Beast.
Sirius's actions hadn't changed much.
But the lines had slightly altered:
"Didn't expect you'd let him go in the end. But if I were him then, I would thank you."
Sirius is someone who would rather be killed than lose free will.
Horn is quite the same; he'd die for his dream.
Wen Xishu thought that perhaps he was the same as well.
If there was an option presented to him now—
To return to the original world without experiencing any strange and apocalyptic events again, but severing all ties with the world he'd previously experienced...
He'd most likely choose to stay, wouldn't he?
Wen Xishu smiled.
The time of parting approaches, the task enters the countdown phase, and Wen Xishu begins to reap new simulations.
[Simulation Start.]
The moment these words appeared in his mind, Wen Xishu rarely felt nervous.
He was truly afraid that no matter how he chose, it would be wrong.
A was wrong, but B was absolutely incorrect too...
That would be utterly despairing.
Fortunately, the subsequent outcome allowed Wen Xishu to see hope.
[Through your efforts, Sirius, who had the ability to reach the Evil Land, finally attained redemption. But the journey belonging to Sirius has not ended, and you are not his ultimate traveling companion.]
[Sirius gifted you a present, but he didn't choose the direction of the former Phoenix, instead going off alone. He wants to rid himself of the destiny tied to the constellations.]
[The captain's conspiracy did not succeed, in search of Sirius, every chamber within the Ark was inspected, and Horn's disappearance quickly became known to all Ability Users.]
[During the captain's interrogation, the ones causing the disturbance revealed Horn as the main orchestrator.]
Seeing this, an exclamation arose within Wen Xishu's heart.
A non-Ability User, to save himself and Sirius, sacrificed his long-laid plans, even exposed his identity...
And faced a group of super Ability Users whom he couldn't defeat alone.
This beginning is likely even more challenging than his convict opening, isn't it?
And Horn doesn't have the Mad Dice.
Wen Xishu thought to himself, is fate truly so cruel to Horn?
Yet, the simulation he saw afterward was this.
[But Horn just vanished like that, no one found where Horn was. However, there are always some who occasionally see the elusive Horn.]
[Within the Ark, Ability Users met bizarre deaths, and the captain, obsessed with eternity, finally realized his rule wasn't firm, he needed to eliminate internal threats first.]
[Scorpio Favorability +10.]
[Pisces Favorability -10.]
[Sirius Favorability +80.]
[Li·Horn Favorability +95.]
Hmm?
Wen Xishu felt like he was reading halfway through a novel, just as the climax was about to appear, it abruptly wasn't there, then directly entered the MVP summary chapter.
How did Sirius survive again?
Why did Scorpio's favorability increase compared to before?
Why did Pisces's favorability go from -1 to -10?
The most crucial thing... Horn isn't an Ability User, how did he become Li·Horn?
It must be said, this result invigorated Wen Xishu greatly.
But Wen Xishu really couldn't think of how Horn broke through.
"This guy is better than me, huh."
...
...
Time Turbulence.
Due to different entry points, the first time point Horn encountered wasn't the man-eating city, but... the underground passage outside Wind City.
Facing those people, Horn and Wen Xishu asked the same question.
"Why do you ask this? Poor child, aren't we from the same place?"
Horn even had the same reason as Wen Xishu:
"I lost my memory."
What happened next was entirely different from Wen Xishu's.
Horn learned that the Dragon Hide Plan failed, and the God "lost control," becoming someone's slave.
Logically, Horn would go to Wind City. After all, Wind City's City Lord, Wen Xishu, due to the "past invading the future," had memories and had taken in these Wind City refugees.
But shortly after entering Wind City, Horn realized he had to reverse and go to that underground bunker to defeat God, relying only on another God.
As an ordinary person, what he could do was imitate the envoys of history, orchestrate strategic alliances and coalitions.
It was precisely this decision that began to change Horn's fate.
