Wang Wen filled out the registration form at the Guard Department and left.

According to the rules, all Tower Climber who go to the 200th floor for the first time need to register with the Guard Department, otherwise they will be classified as dishonest persons, and the regional ruler has the right to apply to the bank headquarters to freeze personal accounts.

Wang Wen likes rules.

Everything is in order to make people feel at ease.

Groups like Tiansheng that kill people whenever they disagree are unruly evil elements and need to be eliminated as soon as possible.

It's a pity that with his current strength, he can't quickly eliminate and replace the world's second largest consortium.

Tiansheng is too big.

Even if the clones killed all the management of Tiansheng, Tiansheng Group would still be eaten by other forces.

Unless you kill everyone who is stronger than your current body, you won't be able to eat in peace.

Rather than letting Tiansheng's resources be scattered and turned into nutrients for the earth, it is better to keep them alive temporarily and wait until the moment you are strong enough to take them into your pocket.

Wang Wen walked out of the Guard Department, thinking about various plans for the next step, walking slowly on the street late at night.

The night is already deep.

Three o'clock in the morning.

Normally it should be a time when people sleep deeply.

Unfortunately tonight is different.

The large and small restaurant stalls on both sides of the street are still brightly lit.

Tonight is the day when the last surviving Tower Climbers come out of the tower.

They have plenty of reasons to cheer, celebrate, drink, and brag.

Just like the little roadside stall Wang Wen just passed by.

The robot turns over various kebabs with an expressionless expression, and the heat is accurate to degrees Celsius.

There were three men sitting around a small table nearby.

One of them, a shirtless strong man, held a beer in his hand without drinking it for a long time. He was foaming at the mouth and talking happily about how brave and witty he was in the last level. He solved the difficult trap in time and rescued his teammates who were in danger.

The two audience members on the left and right were biting into delicious skewers, and from time to time they would compliment each other and ask, "Then the beautiful teammate you mentioned must be very attracted to you."

The strong man was very proud. "That goes without saying!"

The audience took a few more bites of the meat on the skewers and asked curiously, "Why didn't you ask for your contact information afterwards?"

The strong man was stunned.

He picked up the beer and took a long sip, and said angrily, "That's what the wild team is like. They fly separately as soon as the level is cleared, and there is no chance to ask for it."

The audience member on the left didn't seem to be too sensible. He laughed and said, "Then you haven't attracted anyone! Otherwise, why would you leave in a hurry? I will definitely take the initiative to exchange contact information with you and keep in touch after leaving the tower!"

The strong man glared at him angrily. "What do you know! If someone is so seriously injured, he must come out of the tower for treatment immediately! We are Tower Climber! Tower Climber is just dancing on the tip of a knife! How can we talk about the personal relationship between our children at the critical moment!"

Audience: "Jiligulujirigulu."

Wang Wen has walked away and cannot hear their subsequent chat clearly.

Just a short scene of fireworks made his tense heart relax a little.

Streets, alleys.

Late night food is just the same.

Steaming hot pots sit on the table against the glass in a bright restaurant.

Grilled skewers are placed on an iron plate on a small table surrounded by several stools at a cool food stall.

The simple mobile cart was guarded by people who were smoking and waiting patiently for fried noodles.

A variety of food with different prices and different temperatures will warm the hearts and bellies of all night-time visitors.

Eat enough, drink enough, sleep well, and wake up tomorrow and say this again:

It's good to be alive.

Wang Wen smiled slightly all the way, looking at the blurred brilliance in the distance with some fascination.

Unknowingly, I walked to the door of the Academy.

Compared to the thousands of lights outside.

The Academy, which was supposed to be the liveliest place, is now dark and lifeless.

Wang Wen The originally relaxed mood suddenly became heavy again.

He walked into the Academy door.

A small lamp was on in the dark buildings.

That's the dormitory for third-year students.

Wang Wen raised his head and counted the room number at the bottom of the building. He lit various sensor lights all the way up the stairs. Finally, he successfully found the room and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

A vigilant male voice came from inside.

Wang Wen felt that the voice seemed familiar. He thought about it and said tentatively, "Senior Li? My name is Wang Wen."

The door opens.

It is Li He.

His expression seemed to be filled with surprise after exhaustion. He nodded towards Wang Wen, stepped aside and said, "Today is the day you leave the tower. You have just finished your work, right? Come in and sit down."

Wang Wen walks into the room.

The room is very simple.

A bed, a table, and a chair.

Except for the obvious bucket of laundry in the bathroom, the whole place is quite tidy.

Li He moved the chair for him to sit on, turned around, took the cup and went to the bathroom to rinse it, and asked casually, "What to drink?"

Wang Wen asked curiously, "What do you have?"

Li He was stunned and said, "Plain water."

Wang Wen asked, "What else?"

Li He:"No more."

Wang Wen was shocked. "Then what's the point of asking me this question?"

Li He held the cup and smiled, "Let's see how rude you can be."

Wang Wen sat on the chair, took out two bottles of Healthy Body Water, waved to him and said, "Stop working, drink from me."

Li He walked to the bed and sat down, picked up the bottle on the table and made a "huh" sound, deliberately mocking. "The person who said he was poor and useless last time we met can now drink two thousand Point props as a drink?"

Wang Wen pretended to be angry. "Isn't this because you are still busy in the middle of the night and you are so miserable that you can't bear the pain and bleed? If you don't drink, pay me back!"

"Gulu gulu gulu" Li He unscrewed the bottle cap and drank most of the bottle in a few gulps without saying a word.

Just a few words.

The atmosphere between the two became harmonious.

Gentlemen are harmonious but different. This is generally the case.

Wang Wen flipped through the book on the table and found that there were many names on it, some were crossed out, some were checked, and most of them were question marks.

Li He took the initiative to explain, "I applied for the position of Dean to the regional rulers. They were worried that no one would take this hot potato. They gave me the green light regardless of whether I was qualified or not. I checked the Academy The water and power grid are still normal. In addition to the collapsed buildings, people have been found to start rebuilding. More importantly, the staff and teachers are still there. After asking around, the staff are okay and there are almost zero teachers. Everyone has heard about the tragedy, and no one dares to work at the Academy."

Wang Wen Close the thick notebook.

After thinking about it, he said, "Is it possible that we can teach it ourselves instead of hiring teachers?"

"Us?" Li He glanced at him. "What level are you at now?"

Wang Wen smiled, pushed away the notebook and said to him, "Don't worry about how many levels I have. Ever since the Academy's accident, I have been thinking, why is it that there are so many teachers and students, and the Academy, who should have been able to become a big force in the world, has no cohesion and is so vulnerable?"

Li He was silent for a while.

He said with a mocking look on his face, "Because the first class of the Academy and the class that is taught the most is called "Don't trust fellow travelers."

"That's right!" Wang Wen nodded. "It is the atmosphere that the Academy has always had that made me automatically ignore the Academy when I was looking for a collaborator. I would rather go to the Guard Department without even considering it. This is a very bad phenomenon among the Academy teachers and students in front of us. Looking at the large and small consortiums, they are all trying to unite their members through various means. Only the Academy is trying every means to keep everyone independent. Even the dormitories are per person, and there is no cohesion at all."

Li He helplessly spread his hands. "Is there any way? The Academy is just a stepping stone after all. No one will stay here for the rest of his life. All students come here to seek better development in major financial groups after graduation."

"So, change!" Wang Wen had firm eyes and a serious tone.
