Chapter 166: Take away Fu Wenduo's powers! - [The Earth is Online]

Under the red-bronze moonlight, Zhao Xiaofei is cleaning Li Miaomiao's wounds while stealing glances at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo. Suddenly, she notices that the two men's expressions have turned odd. First they are stunned, then they are complicated, and finally they are a bit annoyed ......

Eh? Annoyed?

Zhao Xiaofei looks at it curiously for a few more moments.

Are all advanced players this weird ......

Zhao Xiaofei had no idea how many thoughts had flashed through Tang Mo's mind in that short second. In the end, Tang Mo's mind was summed up in one simple thought: someone kick this fake clock back into the steel ruins!

Embarrassment was inevitable, but Tang Mo calmed himself down as quickly as he could. Without looking at Fu Wenduo, he looked coldly at the giant clock in front of him and asked in his mind, "What does it mean to take away all of Fu Wenduo's props and not allow him to use them anymore? What if I took all his props and gave them back to him after I had obtained his powers? What would happen then?"

Tang Mo knew that the truth clock must have heard him, and he did not open his mouth.

According to the Truth Clock, it was enough to take Fu Wenduo's props, not to destroy them. So if Tang Mo gives the props back to Fu Wenduo after he gets the powers, won't Fu Wenduo be able to continue using them? Or would he lose Fu Wenduo's powers because he didn't eat them up and not pay for them? If that's the case, then it doesn't matter. Fu Wenduo's powers were important, but what they wanted to know now was what the note meant.

The Great Truth Clock guessed Tang Mo's guess: "You won't lose his powers, because you already have them. But the moment you take all his items and gain them, the law of karma kicks in and they no longer belong to The black tower intruder Fu Wenduo. Even if you give them back to him, he cannot use them, they are only yours to use."

...... It really can't be that simple.

Fu Wenduo had been standing quietly by, but Tang Mo could not ignore his presence at all. So he doesn't know that Fu Wenduo is looking at the clock of truth with a blank face, not looking at Tang Mo either, his gaze drifting a little, not knowing what he is thinking.

Tang Mo was not sure if what he was saying in his mind would be heard by Fu Wenduo, and he hesitated before asking the question, "What does it mean to mate? He said, "By taking away all his props, I can get his powers. Does that apply to anyone else?"

This is the second question, which by definition the truth clock does not need to answer.

Perhaps because he knew he was about to be made into a stinky toilet and given to Santa, Truth Clock broke down and replied for free, "Not applicable. It applies to The black tower intruder Fu Wenduo because he has multiple rare quality props."

Tang Mo suddenly felt that he had guessed the correct way to use his powers, but he was still a little confused. The Truth Clock didn't answer his question, and even Schrödinger scolded him, "Hey, hey, hey, you humans are getting greedier and greedier by the minute. You've asked several questions, no more! Get out of my steel forest!"

The clock of truth is silent no more, as if it were an ordinary clock, quietly ticking away the seconds.

Tang Mo turns around to go back, just as Fu Wenduo also turns around. Their eyes met in the air and they both stared at each other. In the next moment, Tang Mo used absolute reason to suppress the complicated and bizarre emotions in his heart that could not be described in words, and they were both silent for a moment.

Halfway through the day, Fu Wenduo nodded, "...... hmm."

Tang Mo: "......"

Fu Wenduo: "......"

Shit, what's all this about!

Neither Li Miaomiao nor Zhao Xiaofei understood what had happened between Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo as the four stood on the wide platform, waiting for The black tower to end the game. Li Miaomiao's injury was self-inflicted, and Tang Mo knelt down to help apply medicine and examine it. Fu Wenduo stood by and looked down at the back of Tang Mo's head.

Slowly, he frowned, as if thinking about something.

Fu Wenduo's powerful and bizarre powers of association made him think of something, but he soon dismissed himself: he shouldn't know my birthday.

Five minutes later, Tang Mo stood up. More concerned at the moment than the awkward suggestion of a truth clock, he said, "We haven't left the game yet?"

The crowd also found it strange.

Zhao Xiaofei: "Haven't we finished the game already."

Schrödinger was directing the middle-aged steward to the side as he moved the steel materials, not paying any attention to them. The four players waited on the platform for another five minutes when a foul, smelly stench came from the distance. The familiar smell caused all the players to look ahead warily, only to see a ragged old man dressed in rags stumbling from a distance.

At the smell, the middle-aged butler ran over excitedly.

As the old man approached, the Schrödinger leapt up to his head in a high, proud manner. The old man ducked his head and gave Schrödinger a "woof". Before anyone knew it, the old man handed Schrödinger a small pink lace-trimmed parasol. No one noticed when Schrödinger handed it to the old man. Schrödinger throws the umbrella to Tang Mo.

Tang Mo took the umbrella and weighed it up and found that nothing had changed at all, the only change was ......

Tang Mo: "......"

Why is there a big extra jewel on the umbrella handle!

Schrödinger grunted: "If it weren't for The black tower's game reward, shameless human beings like you would never in your next life have received a prop made by my great Lord Schrödinger himself. I know you are particularly moved and want to cry, but for His Excellency the great Schrödinger to make a little umbrella like yours is a disgrace to my reputation as an inventor. Get out of here and don't ever appear in front of me again!"

A clear child's voice rang out at the right time: "Dingdong! Players Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo have successfully completed 'Schrödinger's Game of Hide-and-Seek' and have cleared the fourth level of The black tower (normal mode).

"Dingdong! Player Li Miaomiao ...... has successfully cleared The black tower level 3 (normal mode)."

"Dingdong! Player Zhao Xiaofei ...... has successfully cleared The black tower level 2 (normal mode)."

The next moment, a blinding white light came on before their eyes. When Tang Mo opened his eyes again, the three of them were back underneath The black tower next to the Forbidden City in Beijing. Without hesitation, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, one on each side, held the badly wounded and weak Li Miaomiao and prepared to leave this striking place. But this time Tang Mo had only taken two steps when he suddenly came to a halt.

Fu Wenduo also stopped in his tracks and turned in surprise to look at the huge The black tower behind him.

Li Miaomiao's body froze and his pupils trembled as he turned his head to look at the huge black tower that was shimmering with coloured light.

"...... successfully cleared the fourth floor of The black tower!"

"Dingdong! China Zone 3 player Mu Huixue has successfully cleared The black tower level 4!"

After three global broadcasts, the colourful glow didn't stop there, because immediately afterwards, to no one's surprise, The black tower broadcast two more messages in quick succession.

"Dingdong! Fu Wenduo, a stowaway from China 1, and Tang Mo, an official player, have successfully cleared the fourth floor of The black tower!

"Dingdong! Official Europe 1 player Lena Chopehos, Donde Visek has successfully cleared The black tower level 4!"

Two news items in a row have caught players around the world off guard.

After this, however, is where it really begins.

"Ding Dong! Version update notification. 18 May 2018, The black tower version 4.0 will be available soon."

It all ended unannounced, and as the words fell, the giant black tower, which was constantly flickering, returned to calm. But then, the world was instantly abuzz. Those who didn't know the truth were nervous about the new release, while those who knew about the existence of the Transparent Man, and even the time charts, looked at The black tower in silence.

Shanghai, Moscow, New York, Tokyo, London ......

The city has long been deserted and few humans survive. Yet they knew that soon the human population was about to experience a great wave of growth. Whether the population will drop again after a short period of growth, or whether it will calm down, is anyone's guess.

Russia, Red Square, Moscow.

A burly man in a thick overcoat smashed a handsome looking grey-haired young man into a wall. A huge hole was instantly smashed in the wall by the man. The young man's face was covered in horror and he was so terrified that he crawled backwards on his hands and knees as the big black bear-like man came towards him step by step.

Around the young man's neck hovers a golden number, a five-digit number.

'93134'

"Impossible, why, why are there still such powerful humans on Earth! Aren't you all meat pigs ......"

The big burly man roughly grabbed the grey-haired youth by the collar and slammed him against the wall again. Soon he was ready to smash again, and the great disparity in strength left the young man with no more thoughts of fighting back; he threw away the sharp, hardened knife in his hand and threw his arms around the big man's leg, crying out in pain for mercy. The big man's fist stopped, he was silent for a long time, a hoarse and dull voice rang out from the thick overcoat: "You say that killing that China woman who is number one on the list will ...... bring a man back to life?"

The grey-haired young man cried, "Yes, killing the player who is first in the time ranking will allow you to revive a random person who died in the copy. I've told you everything I know, please, spare my life. Please ......"

The tall, big man made no further movements and after half a minute he turned to leave.

But just as the grey-haired young man was breathing a sigh of relief, a violent fist came crashing down on him. The pretty young man's eyes widened and the fluke expression on his face had barely dissipated when his head was smashed into a bloody mess by this fist. The big man rubbed the blood off on his clothes and slowly made his way out of the small building.

In the alleyway next to the small building were three bodies that appeared to have died not long ago. One of them stared blankly at the sky, and on his neck was a greenish wound. A stab perished.

Beijing, Forbidden City.

Tang Mo's eyes sink. In order to hurry, Fu Wenduo picked up Li Miaomiao and the three of them found a sheltered place to stop.

Li Miaomiao: "I'm almost healed and I'll be free to move in another half hour. I'm going back to the base and looking for the head."

Tang Mo nodded, "Tomorrow we go to Chosen."

Li Miaomiao: "Good."

The three parted ways in this small building.

Soon after, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo found Chen Shanshan and Jackass in hiding. Chen Shanshan met them and said, "How are you? Are you hurt?" The young girl looked closely at Tang Mo and was relieved to see that they didn't seem to be seriously injured, but then her expression turned serious: "Mu Huixue has cleared the fourth floor of The black tower. Brother Tang, Mr. Fu school, how was your tower attack game this time, did you gather any useful information?"

Tang Mo opened his mouth to tell Chen Shanshan more about the encounter. However, he suddenly paused as the words rang in his head. Tang Mo's face flushed for a moment, but he managed to keep the embarrassment at bay and calmly said, "The tower attack was a four-player game, but we encountered a The black tower monster in there, who was disguised as a player to blend in with us. He's Glea Sykes, the leader of the Circus of the Weird."

Chen Shanshan was astonished: "The head of the Circus of the Weird?"

Tang Mo nodded, "Yes, the leader of the Strange Circus, his name is Grea and he is very scary ......"

Next, Tang Mo went over the copy of what they had encountered this time. He needed Chen Shanshan's help in advising him on some matters. He needed Chen Shanshan's help in some matters. With his "super-intelligent thinking" ability, Chen Shanshan might be able to guess something from the smallest details.

After hearing this, Chen Shanshan asked, " Mr. Fu School's powers are indeed important, Brother Tang, and it would be best if you knew that docket. What did the Truth Clock answer?"

Tang Mo: "......"

Fu Wenduo: "......"

Chen Shanshan, who sensed something was wrong: "......???"

Jackass, who has a lot of nerve: "Hurry up then. Don, it turns out that your powers are so great. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, not even Dr. Lok. It's so important that you take Fu's powers away."

How on earth do people like ...... who can't read the atmosphere survive this long!!!

--------------------

The author has something to say.

Jackass: Did I say something wrong? [scratching head

Tangtang: ......

Mr. Fu: ......

Mr. Fu: Wait, I think he said it quite well.

Tangtang: ......?!!!
