Three Towers Welcomer

White-headed, red-headed, black-headed.

The three heads were actually identical, differing only in color and facial expression.

The black head was gloomy, its smile a little sinister and evil.

The white head's smile was exaggerated, like a clown performing comedy.

The red head wasn't smiling, but its presence exuded an imposing authority.

Wen Xishu wasn't adapting as quickly this time; honestly, he found the guide's appearance more sanity-draining than Deception Jack's.

After about ten seconds of silence, he began to ask questions:

"So, the fact that I can see three heads, does that mean anything?"

The guide's white head answered Wen Xishu:

"Generally, climbers can only see one of our heads. Whichever tower system they influence, they see that head."

"You can see three, which means you just completed a remarkable adventure and altered the content of three towers."

"Little brother, which one of us do you think is the most handsome?"

All three heads of the Three Towers' guide turned to look at Wen Xishu.

The white head suddenly began to writhe with flesh and blood. Before long, it had taken on a rather beautiful female face.

The red head snorted dismissively.

The black head adjusted its smile, likely trying to appear more normal, but it only looked more sinister.

Wen Xishu was somewhat speechless; he had completely adapted to this Three Towers guide now.

"According to the prompt, I need to complete 'account registration' here with the guide."

He decided to get straight to the point.

More than chatting aimlessly with the guide, Wen Xishu was more concerned about what completion level he had achieved.

And what kind of Eerie Sequence Deception Jack had given him.

According to Wen Xishu's current memories:

Sequences were extremely rare items, and everyone had an initial sequence slot where they could insert one sequence.

Sequences were divided into three types: Slaughter Sequence, Eerie Sequence, and Desire Sequence.

As one continued to explore the Three Towers, lucky individuals could obtain rarer sequences, or with a surge of good fortune, unlock additional sequence slots.

Legend had it that Xun Hui, the number one on the Tower of Slaughter Heavenly Ladder, had six sequence slots, all equipped with rare sequences.

However, the Three Towers' guide seemed to become interested in Wen Xishu's "affiliation."

"Tell us first, which head do you like?" the white, Tower of Desire head asked, sounding somewhat fawning.

The black, Tower of Deception head's smile grew more solicitous, yet remained extremely sinister.

The red, Tower of Slaughter head, though not smiling, seemed to convey with its eyes: "Choose me, or I'll kill you if you don't."

Wen Xishu was silent for a few seconds:

"Is there a reward for choosing?"

It was still the white head speaking; it was clearly the most eager to communicate:

"You could say that. After choosing, your actions will be a reward for us."

"Correspondingly, we will offer you a certain amount of help within the related tower system. For example, if you choose me, then in the future when navigating the Tower of Desire... you will gain more."

"Occasionally, I can also provide you with some special intel that will make you feel very comfortable."

Wen Xishu's interest was piqued:

"Can't I choose all of you? You all seem very approachable."

The term "approachable" was new to the three heads. No matter how they changed, when the three heads were squeezed together, they bore no resemblance to approachability.

The three heads shook their heads in unison. Their inconsistent speeds almost caused them to collide. The red, Tower of Slaughter head said:

"It's the rules! You can only choose one."

Wen Xishu said "Oh," and continued in his unhurried tone:

"Tsk, then who should I choose? What are your advantages?"

All three heads were taken aback.

Then, the white head seemed to realize; they had been reversed.

Up until now, when humans ascended the tower, the first guide's head they saw was the one they defaulted to.

Most people—or rather, everyone except for a select few—had only one option.

Even if they switched towers later, for example, if someone moved from the Tower of Slaughter to the Tower of Desire, the guide's option wouldn't change.

Even so, many people still wanted to switch to the Tower of Desire, despite losing the guide's help and favorability.

The guide didn't really pay much attention to these people.

But Wen Xishu was definitely someone worth paying attention to.

"Pick me, little brother. Everyone has desires. In the Tower of Desire, don't you want to do whatever you please?"

The white skull's words were pointed.

Wen Xishu looked at the black skull. The black skull's smile remained sinister.

As Wen Xishu's gaze shifted, the red skull and the white skull both roared:

"Third Brother, you're not allowed to compete for this anymore! You already have one!"

The black skull said:

"But at the beginning, that slaughter fiend could only see me. He only saw the two of you later through his own efforts."

Wen Xishu was slightly surprised: "Who is that slaughter fiend? What's his name?"

"We can't reveal that. But if you choose me, perhaps I can give you some intel in the future."

The one referred to as Third Brother was precisely the black skull of the Deception faction.

Wen Xishu finally understood.

Choosing a skull was equivalent to choosing a specialization.

Choosing white meant getting extra bonuses and growth when the Tower of Desire yielded benefits.

The Tower of Desire specialized in the human heart. It was said that Wen Renjing, who ranked first on the Tower of Desire Heavenly Ladder, possessed the ability to make everyone like him.

He was truly exceptionally charming and adored by all.

This was not just due to his innate appearance, but also the effect of the Desire Sequence.

Everyone would maintain goodwill towards him, love him, and like him.

However, even so, Wen Renjing had targets in the higher levels of the Tower of Desire that he couldn't conquer. Many missions also couldn't achieve Level 5 or Level 6 completion.

This showed that in the higher levels of the Tower of Desire, the difficulty of pleasing certain Three Towers people was incredibly perverse.

Wen Xishu pondered for a moment. Specializing in the Tower of Desire wouldn't be bad.

But he preferred the Tower of Deception.

Fighting and killing, or falling in love... neither was his preference.

"Eerie," "absurd," and "unpredictable" were the terms he favored.

Although the Tower of Desire seemed to present many aspects worth considering and contemplating.

Wen Xishu believed that the higher levels of the Tower of Deception would be more challenging.

Moreover, it was unlikely he could escape the fate of exploring the Tower of Deception anytime soon.

Once he returned to the Bunker, the leaders there would likely find ways to make him continue exploring the Tower of Deception.

"Although I'd love for you to continue peddling your selling points and elaborating on your core appeal before I decide who to hire..."

"But our needs are actually very clear, so congratulations, you've been hired."

The black skull, symbolizing deception, had a slightly stiff smile. How did that sound like a complete reversal?

The white skull was clearly unhappy and stopped speaking, its expression quite aggrieved.

The red skull said:

"Although you didn't choose the noble Slaughter faction, at least you didn't choose those soft-hearted guys who indulged in lust."

After saying that, the red skull closed its eyes and no longer paid attention to Wen Xishu.

The black skull chuckled sinisterly:

"Don't mind them. We of the Deception faction are not judged by common standards; that's the most noble thing."

Wen Xishu didn't want to waste time:

"How do I complete my account registration?"

The black skull said:

"First, you need to give me a codeword."

"This is very important. Because when exploring the Three Towers, you'll receive material rewards, and all these materials will be marked with your codeword."

"Additionally, you can make some adjustments to your body here."

Wen Xishu roughly understood. It was equivalent to saying that although everyone could use the materials, they would all see prompts like "This material belongs to xxx."

This was quite good.

Wen Xishu began to ponder this matter. Generally, codewords shouldn't be one's real name.

Just like people wouldn't post on various forums using their actual ID names.

But his situation seemed different.
