Three Towers Game

"But the pain is real!"

"In the manhole, there are also my relatives, my child has become part of the manhole, don’t fight with me, you only feel pain a few times a month, what are you risking your life for!"

A steel needle pierced through his beating heart, and the half-headed old man screamed in agony, but soon a sense of euphoria made him feel extremely comfortable.

"Hahahahaha! Feels so good! So painful!"

"My pain is above yours!"

The half-headed old man let out a wild laugh.

At this moment, he seemed like the wealthiest person in the entire auction. He looked at everyone with a gaze that mocked their poverty.

The auctioneer exclaimed:

"What a terrifying pain value! The pain value actually reached... 39 points! A physical manifestation of heart-rending pain, I actually witnessed it!"

"39 points once!"

"39 points twice!"

"39 points three times!"

"Sold! This bottle of exquisite wine that can bring painful memories is yours! Congratulations!"

The half-headed old man happily took the bottle. Then, the pain value on him seemed to materialize into some kind of energy, transforming into an eerie white mist... spreading inside the auction.

This was a scene everyone had seen before, but it was the first time Wen Xishu saw it.

Wen Xishu thought...

"In Desire Tower, is there someone collecting pain?"

"His obsession makes everyone start chasing pain. Pain can bring powerful healing abilities and superpowers... thus pain became currency, and the auction is the place where this currency is traded."

"The white mist is the power exchanged from the half-headed old man’s pain, or rather currency. If not used in the auction, it will turn into some kind of power, but if used in the auction, it becomes currency."

Unlike others, Wen Xishu knew this place was the Deceit Tower. He also knew it was a world of obsessions, with many rules.

He noticed that when Virtual 04 first committed seppuku, the pain generated had no white mist. It can be seen that outside the auction, pain only brings the energy of superpowers.

But inside the auction... pain turns into currency.

"It seems the pain auction is probably a separate side quest, but the resources gained from this side quest are used to deal with another side quest—the manhole."

"It looks like an obsession world is trying to destroy another obsession world."

"Whether it’s the manhole or the pain auction, they are now full of mysteries."

Wen Xishu’s thoughts were quickly interrupted.

Because Virtual 04 said:

"Sir, are you... not planning to bid? You just watched the whole time, you know you are a novice, never tainted by the stench of pain."

"As long as you take off your clothes and reveal your flawless body, many people will give up competing with you. After all, competition comes at a price."

Indeed, competition comes at a price.

For example, Tanaka Shouta who dug out his eyes.

Although the physical and mental pain of gouging out his eyes gave him 30 currency... but obviously, he lost his superpower, it was not worth it.

Even so, his pain was surpassed by newcomers, so he didn’t even get the auction item.

Wen Xishu said:

"I am still waiting for a tool suitable for me."

The auctioneer quickly took the stage:

"The second item is not simple, this item is one of the best tools produced in the current pain auction for exploration!"

"Everyone take a look! This is a pain crystal gem necklace! The effect of the necklace is very straightforward. Every ten seconds, it negates one lethal damage you receive but brings immense pain!"

"Death exemption! Permanent pain!"

The auctioneer had already started shouting excitedly.

At this moment, everyone was shouting:

"Death exemption! Permanent pain!"

Everyone’s eyes shone with fervor, showing that in this world setting, the necklace was incredible.

The more painful, the stronger, but the pain necklace would convert lethal damage into an experience of pain, thereby exempting death.

This concept was too powerful.

Not only does it prevent death, but it also provides immense pain. The person wearing this necklace would likely continuously try to court death, right?

Wen Xishu was also interested in this necklace.

Once he obtained this necklace, combined with invincibility frames, he could exempt death twice in a short time...

This would provide a lot of operational space, giving him confidence to enter the manhole.

Moreover, this thing is a tool; currently, his sequence slots are insufficient, but the tool slots are enough.

He decided to compete.

But at this time, everyone in the venue also wanted to compete.

Even Tanaka Shouta, who had lost his superpowers, resolved again.

[As long as I have this necklace... I will constantly court death, let the pain break through the limit, I will surely gain new power!]

The entire venue was boiling.

At this time, the auctioneer said with great satisfaction:

"The starting price is 45 pain value!"

At that moment, the venue fell silent.

pain value means a novice experiences the pain of a broken finger.

For these people with high pain tolerance, it would take dozens or even hundreds of times the pain to reach 45.

The half-headed old man laughed:

"It seems, with my immortal body, I will laugh again!"

The half-headed old man first opened the bottle of wine he had obtained from the first auction, then took a small sip.

Painful memories instantly flooded in.

The memory of losing loved ones, being affected by the curse, and becoming part of the manhole, brought tears to the old man’s eyes.

"How terrifying! Everyone, the power of the pain wine from the first auction is truly astounding! This participant is experiencing the pain of life and death! A pain that cuts to the bone!"
