Three Towers Game-Chapter 975 - 294: Twilight Without Love (Part 2)

Of course, on the second and third levels of the Bunker, there are still many, many people busy with their livelihoods.

In the Forbidden Land of the Desire Tower Garden at the Three Towers Academy, Albert, upon his return, learned that Evelyn was praying, and he hurried over to reassure her.

Under the night sky, you could see traces of time on Evelyn.

She looked somewhat old, different from her usual elegance, appearing somewhat haggard.

"Hi, my goddess, this is a night worth celebrating, we should go have a drink."

Albert teased with a smile.

The wrinkles at the corners of Evelyn's eyes hid countless emotions:

"Albert, congratulations are in order for you, you've accomplished a great feat, it's truly a magnificent journey."

Despite the unease in her heart during the prayer, upon seeing Albert, the haggardness and gloom quietly disappeared.

Evelyn seemed quite natural, instantly returning to her usual tranquil state.

"Let's go, you know, I rarely celebrate."

Albert turned around.

Evelyn followed behind, clearly having something she wanted to say. But she held back, arriving at the principal's office.

Even at night, Jabbar could still provide extremely high-quality service.

He knew all too well the refined enjoyment pursued by these Isaac People.

Besides hot coffee, he was also skilled in mixology.

At night, the principal's office became a small bar that only served Albert and his friends.

After drinking those brilliantly colored cocktails, Albert became more talkative.

He certainly wasn't drunk, but when he saw Evelyn's eyes, he couldn't help but talk a bit more:

"Sagittarius is a tough opponent, but we have Wen Xishu, Evelyn, this kid is really impressive."

"Having him in the Bunker makes me very happy, although this happiness can't fill the regret of Old Jin's departure."

"However... Old Jin isn't dead; he just went to do what he felt was right."

Evelyn nodded and took a small sip of her drink.

"I've started to think..."

"The expression of Sagittarius, hesitation in his words, was it hinting at something."

"He thought halfway through that we had the backing of the constellations."

"That's absurd because I know what I've sacrificed."

"But I can't help but wonder, what about the Wen Family?"

"This battle made me realize that Slaughter, Deceit, and Desire Towers seem like gifts to us, allowing our frail selves to evolve to confront the strongest beings in the apocalypse."

"So, did the constellations already want to infiltrate the Bunker long ago?"

"I'm not sure anymore, because of Old Jin, because of my student Wen Chaohua, they have so many puzzles related to the constellations."

"What if a constellation could also strengthen itself through the Three Towers like the Bunker People... how terrifying would that be?"

That's certainly a terrifying thought.

But for some reason, Albert just thought of it, and he even felt... to make this idea come true, if he were a constellation, it would be worth any price.

Evelyn softly said:

"Albert, you should let go of those worries, what you should do is rest happily tonight."

Albert raised his glass, and Evelyn did the same, while Jabbar silently played a record in the corner, which was an Isaac People ballad.

"You're right. Tonight should indeed be celebrated; I defeated the constellations, I and Wen Xishu defeated the constellations. No matter what, this is a milestone in the history of the Bunker People."

Albert happily drank up his drink.

Suddenly, Evelyn said:

"Albert, I'm very afraid you'll suddenly leave."

"I used to think of you as invincible because you and Old Jin... were always ahead of me, your backs like two insurmountable but reassuring mountains."

"But after Old Jin left, I started to panic."

"Can you promise me, to always be... a living legend of the Bunker?"

"Or, could you occasionally do something a bit easier?"

Albert finally noticed that his old friend Evelyn seemed to be in an unusual mood tonight.

"My goddess, you're a master of controlling emotions, but tonight you seem a little bit sorrowful."

Evelyn mocked herself:

"When emotions can be controlled at will, sometimes I forget whether I'm playing myself or actually being myself."

"Albert, I've gotten old, and you know, old people live in their memories. I'm very afraid the people in my memories will one by one disappear."

"Especially you, Albert."

Her gaze became somewhat bewildered, with a touch of vulnerability. At this moment, Evelyn seemed like a fragile girl.

Albert answered with a different question:

"Yes, memories always give me strength. I am also someone who lives in the past."

This made Evelyn lower her head:

"Do the people from the past still bind you?"

She spoke very quietly, very quietly.

Albert's keen senses, of course, heard it clearly, along with that emotion.

"The people from the past, that's not called bondage, they completed their mission by pointing out my life's path."

"They never bound me; I'm just doing what I want to do."

Evelyn was silent for a while and eventually decided to clarify things a bit:

"In the Bunker, there certainly isn't a lack of people with stories; most of these stories have the same color."

"But life is all about patching things up, and the Bunker has so many such stories. They've lost their beloved who climbed the Slaughter Tower, but life always has to go on..."
