Chapter 89: Chapter 60 Belonging to Wen Xishu

The enormous brass shamrock slowly ceased its turning. Same time as before.

Still, only for such a brief moment.

Wen Xishu originally wanted to come to the library’s top floor alone, but he couldn’t shake off Yue Yun and Nissen.

So, once again, the three of them arrived at the top floor of the library together.

Yue Yun gazed at the shadowy part, that shadow like a door remained undecipherable, a jumble of gibberish.

Having had the previous experience, both Nissen and Yue Yun turned their heads simultaneously, not allowing their spirits to be affected by negative emotions.

Yue Yun still noticed Wenxun’s gaze fixated on the black interface. It seemed deeper and more focused than last time.

He had grown stronger; after taking those special courses, he had become stronger!

Yue Yun felt shocked internally; he never expected that despite his daily overburdened training, he fell behind from the very start.

Nissen was extremely curious:

"Wenxun! Quickly, tell us, what did you see this time?"

Right at this moment, Wen Xishu withdrew his gaze.

After rubbing his temples, he slowly spoke:

"Three additional characters, two new words."

Yue Yun hurriedly said:

"Don’t keep us in suspense!"

Wen Xishu replied:

"Dean, Principal."

Nissen and Yue Yun exchanged glances, pondering for a moment, but still not understanding.

Last time there were five characters: master, core, ultimate, authority, pure.

This time, with Wen Xishu’s anti-magic value raised to 14 points, he could decipher the words Dean and Principal.

Yue Yun said:

"As far as I know, the school combines the roles of Dean and Principal; occasionally people refer to that legendary figure as the Old Dean."

"Or rather, the Dean of Three Towers Academy. Wenxun, what do you think?"

Wen Xishu said:

"It’s simple, the dean is independent, the principal is the principal, the dean is the dean."

"The principal holds greater power and governs the entire Three Towers Academy, but... there very likely should be a dean’s position."

What Wen Xishu didn’t say was that he already believed this was Deceit Tower Academy.

What is referred to as the secret treasure of Three Towers Academy is very likely Deceit Tower Academy.

How to unlock Deceit Tower Academy and who is the dean... these secrets are temporarily unknown.

But Wen Xishu’s desire for exploration instantly surged.

He thought of an extremely bold hypothesis—

The first person to decipher all the secrets would become the dean of Deceit Tower Academy.

Of course, there were many possible combinations of characters and words; next time he gazes upon this shadow, he might have entirely different thoughts.

However, Wen Xishu couldn’t help but recall Wenren Mirror’s hint that he must establish contact with Albert, a firm and solid contact.

So—if he became the dean of Deceit Tower Academy, wouldn’t that connection be deep enough?

Wen Xishu didn’t consider this idea arrogant. After all, in this era devoid of game-thinking, he had every capability to become a teacher and dean, rather than a student.

But fundamentally, all this required more exploration of Deceit Tower. Wen Xishu decided to actively shorten the interval time, then contact Liu Jinsen to explore Deceit Tower ahead of schedule.

"Let’s go, we need to head back. This decrypting session ends here."

Wen Xishu prepared to leave.

Yue Yun said:

"Your progress is too fast, Wenxun. Can you share anything from those special courses? Or... I’m willing to take you as my mentor; I want to become stronger."

This comment from Bawang somewhat surprised Wen Xishu. This person was truly strong-willed to the core.

But it was a genuine desire for strength, willing to put down dignity for it.

Wen Xishu quite liked such people; those with this personality could achieve great things as long as they weren’t too stupid.

Nissen was surprised at Yue Yun’s remark and then laughed:

"If possible, count me in too!"

Wen Xishu shook his head:

"By midterm, you will know. If by then you still wish to learn from me, I will teach you everything I can. I assure you."

"But not now. If I reveal it now, it would bring me some trouble."

Yue Yun remained silent for a while, then nodded and stood up.

Nissen also stood:

"Let’s go, back home for sleep, after the theory class tomorrow, we can check out the Capsize Cabin!"

Yue Yun and Nissen walked ahead, and the three continued to climb to the library’s top floor like geckos, still using dangerously risky moves to leave.

However, Yue Yun’s physical strength had noticeably improved, nearly matching Nissen’s.

Wen Xishu noticed this and felt a peculiar emotion inside.

Deep down, he still didn’t trust Yue Yun and Nissen, yet he anticipated the day when they might shine in the bunker.

...

...

The next day.

By noon, after classes, Wen Xishu, Yue Yun, and Nissen had already requested leave to apply for permission to enter the second level.

Three Towers Academy’s students are not easily allowed to leave the academy; leaving requires an application.

Generally, obtaining leave from Slaughter Tower Academy is difficult since its students lack background and often resort to violent solutions, needing valid reasons to leave.

Yue Yun and Nissen had valid reasons but didn’t need them.

Because Wenxun’s leave was approved immediately. The approving teacher, hearing the requester named Wenxun, signed off without hesitation.

This led Yue Yun and Nissen to believe Wen Xishu to be some noble heir.

Without much explanation, Wen Xishu quickly joined them, using the descent channel to reach the second level of the bunker.
