Three Towers Game-Chapter 1007 - 306: Libra’s Recruitment

The little boy did not immediately respond to Wen Xishu’s words.

A hint of joy squeezed out from his extremely tired face:

"It’s great... So many of me outside want to replace me, but I just can’t die... I hate myself like this..."

"Now, I’m really going to die, thank you."

Wen Xishu said:

"You’re welcome, I can tell you don’t want to live. By the way, if I plan to recruit you, what will happen?"

"Recruit me? Just like that person said at the start? I hate deception, I would kill you..." The little boy forced a pure smile.

Though his fatigue was evident, it seemed he still had the confidence to kill Wen Xishu.

Wen Xishu thought that indeed.

The choices in this game didn’t appear without reason, leading you to make meaningless choices. If you chose wrong, you would genuinely have to battle the boss.

It was the same with Enzo back then; if you chose wrong, Enzo wouldn’t join, but would instead become your enemy.

However, Wen Xishu’s response to being killed was quite simple.

He didn’t speak, but that strange heart showed more cracks, indicating that you can’t kill me, and your immortal body can be destroyed by me.

The little boy laughed even more joyfully, with flames of vengeance in his eyes:

"Are you here for the Balance Curse?"

Wen Xishu nodded:

"If you’re willing to tell me the secret of the curse before you die, I’ll let you die comfortably."

Enzo was also excited because he was finally going to learn the secret of the curse.

The little boy said:

"My name is Nero. I am a... test subject of Libra. Thank you for granting me death... My existence has killed too many people."

"To repay this gift of death, I will tell you everything I know before I die."

Wen Xishu thought how refreshing it would be if all the great villains cooperated like this—once defeated, they immediately explained their final words, how efficient the world would be?

This Inferior Demon King must also be a tragic person, but he didn’t care, as he had encountered too many avengers whose families were destroyed by the curse on this journey.

He just wanted to clear the level quickly now.

Nero quickly began to talk about the secret of the curse.

"I’m very sorry that this curse has harmed so many people... But I didn’t want this either. After the apocalypse, my powers began to awaken."

"Libra told me it was an immortal power, an eternal force of creation. He said I was one of the very few chosen by the Three Tower Sequence."

"I am the holder of the Three Tower Sequence: Brahman Curse Seal. I possess terrible regenerative powers."

"You see, I am just a child... At the time of the apocalypse, I was only eleven."

"Libra made me believe that my existence had a huge mission. He told me he wanted to create a world governed by a True God, orderly and organized."

"Of course, I agreed. Because I thought this was justice. For me at the time, such a mission was irresistible."

"He told me that the balance of life and death, his ability, is to maintain the balance of life and death in a region."

"Thus, every death is a new birth, and every new birth is also a death..."

"But in this world, the birth of a person is slow. After the apocalypse, humanity was scarce..."

"Creatures in a comfortable environment will consider reproduction, while in harsh environments, they will prioritize survival."

"If no new life is born, then for Libra, it’s impossible to manufacture death."

Wen Xishu had understood this point. He tentatively asked:

"In this world, there are many people whom Libra can’t kill. If he can’t kill them, he creates people, and with new life appearing, old life dies."

"So, when faced with those he can’t kill, he can only find ways to create new life..."

"And you... Are you the one responsible for creating ’life’?"

Nero was slightly amazed, then nodded:

"Yes... I was imprisoned here because I possess the Brahman Curse Seal Sequence. I have a powerful regenerating force."

"What Libra needs is someone who can ’birth’ at any time."

"And someone who can infinitely ’birth.’

"Therefore, I was chosen because I possess the Brahman Curse Seal."

"But this isn’t the true form of ’new life.’ In Libra’s plan, real new birth is creating a wholly new me, rather than immediate regenerative power."

"Though my Brahman Curse Seal can let me regenerate, the process requires physical strength, which he needs to remove my physical strength consumption."

"At the same time, turn regeneration into new birth."

Nero’s smile became heartbreaking:

"He kept telling me it was saving the world..."

"Until later, after getting the experimental data from me, he abandoned me."

"Since then, endlessly, people like you have come here attempting to kill me."

"From those people’s stories, I finally understood the role I was playing."

"But me... I can’t die."

"With the heart of division and that mad scientist’s... energy core, I am forever unable to die."

Energy core?

Wen Xishu hadn’t thought that something appearing in the second stage could still be used here.

It seems the mad scientist’s part isn’t simple...

But in order to protect everyone, he didn’t participate in the battle, missing this part of the storyline.

It now seems the energy core isn’t singular.

The mad scientist might have also been used.

Wen Xishu said:

"The thing that allows you to change from regeneration to division... could it be this heart?"
