Chapter 194: A Proper Mechanism Room
A single Broken Might level would ascend one to the rank of top master.
Double Broken Might levels would be a milestone in the history of tower climbers.
Not everyone had two lifetimes to learn.
Most people would not even be talented enough to become masters in their entire lives.
Let alone achieving the Broken Might level.
For example, Mo Ran, who was already an excellent tower climber, struggled to be a combat master. He could not even think about getting to the Broken Might level.
Wang Wen had encountered many masters after his reincarnation, but Mi Lailai was the only Broken Might Master he had met.
Others, like Ren Ruoruo’s scientific decipherment and Cheng Qiaoyi’s mechanical skills, were still half-baked.
They had barely touched the edge of the Broken Might level; no one knew when they would get past that.
If they were to achieve the Broken Might level, it was hard to say if they would still be interested in practicing another skill to become masters and break through that as well.
To sum up, it was difficult to get through the Broken Might level twice.
What about breaking through the Broken Might level three times?
Nobody knew before Wang Wen.
For Wang Wen, the power of the three breakthroughs had obviously exceeded the extraordinary skills of a tower climber.
No one would have thought that the five basic skills could be used in such a way.
The three breakthroughs complemented each other and led to qualitative change and sublimation, displaying higher power than a transcendent skill. That was the precious wealth that Wang Wen gained from retaining his previous life’s memories.
The five basic categories.
Combat required additional physical fitness to fully display mastery-level techniques, while the other four required intelligence.
Science decipherment, mechanical, and poison-making techniques mainly relied on knowledge, intelligence, and experience.
Spiritual power was more of a pure use of the brain.
Other than the five basic skills he had learned, Wang Wen did not have the other transcendents in his previous life.
He thought it could help him climb to the highest floor to snatch the resources.
He did not expect the transformation to begin when he started his divination.
When it came to the three breakthroughs, Wang Wen used them like transcendent skills.
He had used a basic skill as a transcendent skill.
It was even more varied than a single transcendent skill.
Wang Wen had been using the sandbags to train for half a month, and it was clear he had mastered the technique.
He had the experience of reaching the 300th floor and beyond.
He did have that.
However, the other members of the team did not.
Therefore, even if he had reminded them in time, the people chased by the crazy dog-like Life Harvester mechanism would not have had time to react.
He moved with precision.
Wang Wen had to run and take care of the entire team; he was so tired that he stuck out his tongue.
It was not easy for them to reach the finish line.
He almost had a nosebleed.
That kind of consumption was a waste. He still had to find a way to find cannon fodder and try to fly and see if it would trigger anything.
Wang Wen silently glanced at Zhou Shengsheng.
He gave up after thinking about it.
After all, he had been entrusted with a task.
He had to return him in one piece.
‘Forget it, forget it. I’ll think about it next time.’
Wang Wen moved his eyes away from Zhou Shengsheng with regret.
Zhou Shengsheng shivered inexplicably.
He sniffled, thinking he would catch a cold if he sweated too much, so he quickly opened his backpack and changed into dry and warm clothes.
They had reached the next floor.
The scene changed to a high-tech, heavy metal laser mechanism, and a high-speed particle annihilation beam.
It was an ordinary mechanism room.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that the small piece of ham they had used for the test had turned into roasted ham after being thrown out.
It was still okay.
It was a proper mechanism room.
It was not some bullsh*t special checkpoint.
Everyone sat on the base of the high-speed particle generator according to Wang Wen’s instructions, feeling the rhythmical acceleration of the cycle under their buttocks. They chatted happily while their hearts pounded.
Zhu Xingguo covered his ears and asked Wang Wen, “Master, is that thing safe? Why do I feel like my butt muscles are twitching?”
Wang Wen covered his ears and replied loudly, “Oh, it’s fine. There should be a little bit of electromagnetism or electric current.”
Ren Ruoruo covered her ears and said, “Why? I really can’t understand why they set up such a level.”
Wang Wen let go of her hand and patted her on the shoulder. He shouted, “Do you know why there’s a hole in the ground for the speed mechanism on the floor above?”
“Why?” Ren Ruoruo covered her ears in confusion.
“Who do you think a tower climber is? Is it a respectable profession?” Wang Wen shouted at her. “You’re overthinking! It’s not an insult because tower climbers are essentially a group of parasites living off the World Tower’s nutrients. Why do you think the tower should respect parasites? All of its actions only have one meaning, and that is to stop you or kill you!”
BOOM!
It was as if a thunderbolt had exploded in Ren Ruoruo’s mind.
She thought about Wang Wen’s words.
She was stunned.
Chen Hansheng, who was standing next to him, gave Wang Wen a thumbs up when he saw how the woman trembled after only a few words. Wang Wen humbly shook his hand. Both of them were shocked and numb, and they quickly let go of their hands.
On the other side, Zhou Shengsheng was enjoying a corner of the floor alone. Wang Wen had promised Mo Ran he would bring him to the 400th floor alive.
He saw everyone jumping around.
He curiously asked Wang Wen, “Why didn’t I fall when I stepped on the hole on the previous floor? It seems like something transparent had filled the hole.”
Wang Wen turned around to look at him.
He thought about it.
He shouted, “What did you say? Speak louder. I can’t hear you!”
Zhou Shengsheng raised his voice and said, “I was wondering why I stepped on a hole and didn’t fall!”
“What did you say? I still can’t hear you!”
Zhou Shengsheng was speechless. “Never mind.”
“What? ”
“Why don’t you come closer and talk?”
Zhou Shengsheng closed his eyes.
He indicated that he had fallen into a deep sleep, so deep that he was unconscious. He would not bother them unless they cleared the level.
Wang Wen nodded silently and turned around to continue chatting with the others.
After everyone had rested enough.
Wang Wen and Zhu Xingguo went to dismantle the mechanism.
Wang Wen taught him on the spot.
As he dismantled it, he explained the reason for doing so, as well as the possible hidden dangers and other triggers.
Zhu Xingguo followed his explanation and opened a hidden metal layer, then removed the inconspicuous board and the iron box that was supposed to be sealed. Sure enough, he saw a few wire lines.
He gritted his teeth and wanted to cut off the circuit.
He was stopped by Wang Wen again.
“Continue to follow the route until you find the end,” he said.
Zhu Xingguo obediently followed the circuit and finally found that, in addition to a few apparent mechanisms, the end of the circuit was connected to a high-speed particle generator!
The high-speed particle generator was not a device that could power the annihilation beam.
Or rather, the annihilation beam was powered by another particle accelerator generator hidden in the wall.
The particle generator in the room in front of them pretended to power the annihilation beam to make people lower their guard, but it was a high-energy bomb that would explode at the touch.
If he accidentally triggered the circuit while dismantling the other laser mechanisms…
It would cause a huge explosion!
Once a particle generator of such a scale exploded, countless charged particles would rush through everyone’s bodies at least a hundred times the speed of sound.
It could beat them at a microscopic level.
The scene would be absolutely beautiful.
