Chapter 1601: Chapter 511: Mechanical City Arc Finale_3

Gua Er said:

"I am here to bring you your reward for this task. You completed a mission, but since you are no longer a Bunker Person, your reward has to be delivered by us."

Wen Xishu was amazed:

"There’s still a reward for this?"

Gua Er lowered his voice:

"Yes, to be honest, you stopped an incredible catastrophe. If you could return to the Bunker, this time your reward might be close to Level 6 and a half, almost Level 7."

Gua Er didn’t know the Mad Dice, unaware that Wen Xishu’s Level 5 equivalates to other people’s Level 6, and his Level 6 goes beyond ordinary people’s Level 7.

Of course, the higher the reward, the more bittersweet Wen Xishu felt, after all—he was no longer a Bunker Person.

Gua Er said:

"We initially thought there would be a mission to rescue you, but it seems you are indeed skillful, always able to ensure your own safety."

"Deceit Five, thank you for your contribution to the company. What you receive now is a reward item given by Lord Qilin."

Gua Er brought out a mask, which was black on the left and white on the right.

"This is the Qilin Mask. To put it simply, you can issue a command to the mask."

Wen Xishu asked:

"Then what?"

Gua Er said:

"Don’t rush. The first time you wear the mask, it will be pure white. Under the white mask, you need to issue a command."

"The second time you wear it, it will become a black mask, and the black mask will transform you into your most uncontrollable form."

"Everyone has uncontrollable moments, but those times are often the strongest."

Wen Xishu understood, Yuan’s previous rampage was an example.

"But under the black mask form, though you are out of control, the black mask will ensure you don’t do anything besides the command given under the white mask."

"This mask isn’t much to others, but for you, it should be useful."

Indeed, this mask seemed like it wouldn’t have much use at first, but Wen Xishu truly possessed a powerful uncontrollable state.

And precisely because of the lack of control, he never dared to use that state in battle.

That is the Ghost Groom persona.

In the battle against Legendary Hunter Qing, Wen Xishu ultimately didn’t dare to use the Ghost Groom form.

Fearing that he would lose control and rampage, he might let Qing escape, or even kill innocent people.

But once he has the Qilin Mask, Wen Xishu can use the Ghost Groom form against strong enemies without worrying about being uncontrollable.

"It’s a great item! Indeed, I’ll take it."

Although he can’t return, he has to admit the Three Towers Company is reliable. Even as someone outside the tower, he still receives rewards.

This is truly a good company.

This time he gained two explosive power-up items, the Mechanical Core, and the Qilin Mask.

Wen Xishu didn’t lose out, and if he can return to the Bunker, he would earn even more.

Just then, Gua Er said:

"Additionally, you should still be considering finding a way to return, right?"

Wen Xishu said:

"Of course, I want to return to the Bunker. The authority of a Bunker Person is much higher than what I have now. Should I look for Capricorn, or does Qilin have a solution?"

Gua Er was a bit surprised but quickly realized it was quite reasonable.

"I didn’t expect you to guess it, the key lies with Capricorn. And indeed, Lord Qilin has a way to contact Capricorn."

"However, even if Capricorn agrees, there is a need for a trade-off."

Wen Xishu was puzzled:

"What kind of trade-off?"

Gua Shisan explained:

"Simply put, for one person to enter, another must leave, to maintain balance."

"One person entering the Bunker means another must leave."

Gua Er nodded:

"Yes, Thirteen’s explanation is correct. We came here also to tell you that we will find a way to get in touch with the guide. Which means the three-headed guy."

Wen Xishu was amazed, Three Towers Company and the guide indeed have connections.

Gua Er continued:

"The guide will convey our message, letting that person know your situation while climbing the tower, and... exchange with you."

Gua Er looked at Wen Xishu:

"So, Deceit Five, if you have a way to persuade Capricorn to help you, and Lord Qilin successfully gets you to meet Capricorn, who do you plan to have... lose their qualification as a Bunker Person and become a permanent presence in the Three-Tower Battlefield?"

Wen Xishu was stunned. No mistake, it seems he heard Mr. Jin mention this before.

Capricorn’s "transmission" comes at a cost.

Wen Xishu was momentarily dumbfounded; he hadn’t really considered this issue.

"If there’s a win-win option, where they want to leave, and you want to return, that would be ideal. But if no one wants to leave the Bunker... you better give us a name to persuade."

"Though with your reputation in the Bunker... surely someone would be willing to exchange situations with you."

"But ideally, you should choose one yourself, and I must tell you, this person’s qualifications shouldn’t be too poor. Or rather, their future potential shouldn’t be too poor."

"Otherwise, you might not be able to return. Capricorn won’t accept this."

Gua Er checked the time on his watch:

"You have two minutes to think, if you’ve decided to return to the Bunker, then who do you want to leave?"
