The wind rustled through the tall buildings, rattling the trees on either side of the clearing. Tang Mo's body freezes and he slowly turns to look at the man who is standing still. Fu Wenduo smiled at him, his gaze calm, the corners of his mouth slightly curled.

The two men looked away from each other, neither speaking.

Suddenly, "Grind the sugar."

Tang Mo's heart skipped a beat as he raised his eyes to the tall man. The next moment, as if he realised something, his eyes widened slightly and something suddenly exploded in his heart. A million images flashed before his eyes, the first time we met in Shanghai's underground car park, the first time we entered a copy together and started a tower attack game, and now the group ......

Wait, was it earlier?

Tang Mo was startled and suddenly looked at Fu Wenduo in amazement.

Was it that game of gopher with Wolf Granny, or the two talking for the first time through a fire egg MOMO. Or is it ......

When exactly is it?

Fu Wenduo looked steadily at Tang Mo, and the corners of his mouth pursed as he watched the dark-haired young man's stunned and thoughtful expression. He moved his body a little to move forward, but before he could take that step, he had already involuntarily withdrawn his movements. He couldn't move at all.

Tang Mo closes his eyes, his long eyebrows wrinkling. After a long time, he laughs softly. When he opens his eyes again and looks at Fu Wenduo, Tang Mo's eyes are open and his expression is calm. He heard himself laughing and asked, "What is it if not selling your body?"

To get Fu Wenduo's powers, to get the full meaning of the note, you must go to bed.

But if sex isn't about getting powers ...... then what is it about.

Tang Mo stares intently at Fu Wenduo.

This question silences Fu Wenduo for a moment, and he is unable to answer. The moonlight gently enveloped Tang Mo's body as the tall, thin young man, wearing a thin white T-shirt, looked at him with a smile. The eyes seemed to speak, as if they were examining him, and if he opened his mouth, Tang Mo could take a clue from them, discover something.

...... What is he looking for?

These words flashed through Fu Wenduo's mind.

The powerful understanding and the knowledge of this man, almost to the core, allowed Fu Wenduo to shift in a moment to Tang Mo's point of view, to ponder what Tang Mo was pondering now. It was as if he was touching this man's mind, every tremor in his soul was familiar, every breath was an understanding of his intentions. Then suddenly, Fu Wenduo froze.

The dark eyes slowly widened, and in the cold night air, Fu Wenduo's voice was tinged with laughter.

He asked, "Yeah, what's it for if it's not for sale ......?"

The next morning, Chen Shanshan led a dumbfounded Jackass to Tang Mo and spoke calmly, "Brother Tang, we're going to the Chosen later, and then Jackass will go his separate way from us there. Try and see if you can take away Jackass's powers first, he has a physical enhancement type of power, a huge increase in strength, speed and reflexes."

Jackass didn't think too much of it, he had learned of Tang Mo's powers yesterday. He and Tang Mo were friends, and it didn't affect him in any way when Tang Mo copied his powers, so it didn't matter to him. "Yes, Tang, you try it. My powers may not be as strong as Mr. Fu's or Shanshan's, but they're not bad in Atak and Shanghai."

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo were outside the small building practising all night and did not return.

At the moment the two were standing together, Tang Mo mused, "OK Jackass, do you have any props you can show us? If it's an important item that needs to be kept secret, you can leave it out." Jackass was right to hold back on rare items like the Fire Egg MOMO, which could kill someone at a critical time. "Your powers are more powerful, and by taking a random bit of you, I might not be able to replicate your powers. So I guess I need to take away one of your props."

Jackass nodded and brought his backpack over and emptied its contents.

Looking at the things on the ground, the tall, burly foreign man scratched his head and laughed dryly, "I came to Beijing in a hurry this time, so I didn't bring anything, I only brought a few more important weapons, yes, I only, only brought important ones. But Don, I usually fight with my fists and rarely rely on props, so I don't have many of them."

Tang Mo: "......"

Fu Wenduo: "......"

Chen Shanshan: "......"

That's more than not many, that's only two!!!

Jackass already has very few props compared to the average player, let alone Tang Mo. Who would have thought that an advanced player who has cleared the second level of The black tower and is about to take on the third level of The black tower would only have two props on him!

Tang Mo picks up a small golden axe from the ground. It was a very expensive looking gold axe, but Tang Mo quickly realised that it did not appear to be made of gold when he took it into his hands. He weighed it, then felt the texture on it, and looked to Jackass in surprise: "Made of glass?"

Jackass nods his head.

Tang Mo tapped the axe handle twice and a line of small letters emerged on the axe.

[Props: I am not the Golden Axe of Glass Axe]

[Owned by: Jackass].

[Quality: Rubbish]

[Grade: Level 2].

[Attack Power: Very Weak / Very Strong]

[Function: An expensive-looking but actually very shabby gold-encrusted glass axe head. It looks as if it won't cut anything at all, and will only be cut by anything. However, when faced with something that seems impossible to break, it may have an unexpected effect. The law of causality, which does not cut what can theoretically be cut, can cut what cannot theoretically be cut.

[Limitations: Play is extremely erratic, sometimes unable to cut something when faced with something that cannot theoretically be cut; after failing to cut something ten times in a row, the axe will shatter on its own].

[Remark: Hahahahahaha, didn't expect that! River God smiles a lackluster smile.]

A much more ordinary looking item than the strange axe is Jackass' other item, five thin feather darts. The white feathers are slung over the sharp darts and Chen Shanshan looks at the descriptions of the five darts.

[Props: Fiddlesticks of Fiddipitz]

[Owned by: Jackass].

[Quality: Fine].

[Grade: Level 3].

[Attacking Power: Strong]

[Function: The object hit by the dart will not be able to resist starting to run and must run 40.2km before it can stop].

[Restriction: As long as it is in running condition, there is no restriction on the running route of the object].

[Remark: by the great Lord Schrödinger, in the same vein as Little Red Riding Hood's most wanted red dancing shoes].

After checking the properties of the two props, the crowd was deep in thought.

Tang Mo gave Jackass a strange look, and Jackass was confused.

Jackass has very few props, apart from the fact that he has no luck with props and never gets good ones, there is another reason why he doesn't like to rely on them. Jackass believes in his own fists, and he always fights with his fists, leaving the less important props to Luo Fengcheng for the organisation to keep.

Tang Mo: "Did Luo Fengcheng refuse to take these two props and ask you to use them yourself?"

Jackass was surprised, "Don, how did you know, did Dr. Lowe even tell you about this?"

Luo Fengcheng, of course, didn't tell Tang Mo about this, but they could guess.

Chen Shanshan muses, "Both props look a bit strange, but when played well, they can have unexpected effects. Especially the first prop, each of the karma props is so counter-intuitive and uncontrollable by anything that even The black tower can't reverse the karma."

Jackass: "No, you guys think too much, it's a crappy axe. I've cut things with it four times and nothing keeps cutting."

Tang Mo gave his first dumbfounded look, "You said you slashed with it four times?"

Jackass: "Yeah, my The black tower second level game is in a big forest with a lot of trees in particular and I can't even walk, so I'm trying to chop down trees with an axe ...... Ah, why are you guys looking at me like that, what's wrong with that?"

Crowd: "......"

Luo Fengcheng should never have given you this prop!!!

Tang Mo said seriously, " Jackass I must tell you that I am now going to take one of your props. I'm inclined to take this junk-quality axe, which I judge has a better chance of gaining your powers." Tang Mo looked to Chen Shanshan who nodded approvingly at him.

Jackass: "OK, you take it, I'll give it to you."

Tang Mo was about to tell Jackass that the axe was in fact a very powerful item and that, when used properly, it was as good as a rare quality. Tang Mo looked down at the axe as Jackass suddenly spoke up. He looked down at the axe and saw the small golden letters on the axe slowly changing.

[Props: I am not the Golden Axe of Glass Axe]

[Owned by: Tang Mo].

Tang Mo: "......"

After a moment, " Jackass, it's a very important prop."

Jackass didn't think twice: "But it's in my hands, it's not even useful, is it?"

Tang Mo was at a loss for words. He couldn't even argue with it.

Jackass looked at Tang Mo's face and asked Chen Shanshan if she had said something wrong. The young girl didn't know what to say.

Tang Mo smiled and shook his head, ready to find a fine quality prop to return to Jackass. Before he can reach out, a hand slides past his face, and Tang Mo looks into the slender hand to see Fu Wenduo handing Jackass a large kitchen knife. Jackass looked at him in confusion as Fu Wenduo said indifferently, "Bluebeard's kitchen knife, fine quality. It's simple to use, just cut with it, it's function is to be incredibly sharp."

Jackass was pleasantly surprised: "This knife was made for me, thank you, Fu!"

Fu Wenduo looked down at Tang Mo: "Did you get his powers?"

Tang Mo stared blankly at Fu Wenduo.

Fu Wenduo curled his lips: " Tang Mo ?"

Tang Mo pulled the book of psychic powers out of the air and opened it. He smiled, "Well, got it."

With the most important thing done, the four Tang Mo's set off for the Chosen's base. Along the way, Jackass is excited to try his hand at slashing with a large kitchen knife. He was overjoyed: "These are the best props to use, it's the first time I've seen a weapon that works so well."

The chopper with Jackass seems to work really well.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo walk in front, while Chen Shanshan and Jackass walk behind. The nervous Jackass is so engrossed in his new "superb" prop that he doesn't see anything unusual about anything. The short-haired girl looks at the two men walking in front of her and slowly narrows her eyes.

Tang Mo also has fine quality props, and quite a few more. He also had weapons, perhaps not as suitable for Jackass as this chopper, but definitely something Jackass could use.

However, Tang Mo took Jackass's props and Fu Wenduo returned them.

It's not a no-no, they're all teammates and really don't need to be too separate from each other. But these two are doing this kind of move and doing it a bit too much for granted.

Chen Shanshan touches his ear.

...... is she too sensitive?

Well, it should be overthought.

At noon, the four men arrive at the eightieth form. Practising Yu Zheng was leaning against the school gate, looking down at the ground. Seeing them coming, the beautiful long-haired actress swept a faint glance at them, her voice low, "Let's go, the head has been waiting for you for a long time."

Tang Mo immediately sensed, "Something's going on?"

Lian Yuzheng's footsteps paused: "Well. We caught a transparent man this morning who tried to attack Fu Wen ...... Fu Wensheng and we caught him. Perhaps because of The black tower preview update 4.0, the transparent man hasn't disappeared until now and was tied up in the classroom by the head to extract a confession and told us a lot of new information."

Fu Wenduo lifted his eyes: " How is Fu Wensheng?"

Yu Zheng said, "He's not dead, he's alive and well."

Fu Wenduo keenly detected a hint of anomaly in the tone of practice Yu Zheng's voice and he raised an eyebrow, " Fu Wensheng what's wrong."

Practising Yu Zheng: "We'll know when we get there. That transparent man said a few useful pieces of information, you guys are too slow to get here."

Tang Mo did waste a bit of time trying to get Jackass' powers.

Together, the five men continued to walk forward. Suddenly, Fu Wenduo stopped walking and looked behind him. At the same time, Tang Mo jerked his hand into Jackass's pocket. Jackass was stunned and didn't react at all, but Tang Mo had already taken out the dart that Jackass had just put in his pocket and with a whoosh of his wrist, he threw it at a sycamore tree.

Buzz!

The sharp darts pierced through the trunk of the tree with a sound that pierced the flesh.

The crowd immediately snapped back to attention as the man behind the tree paused for half a second, then picked up his legs and started running in place. A gnashing of teeth sounded from behind the tree as the baby-faced youth in the white jacket turned red with anger, as if he hadn't expected to be in this position again either. He trotted under the tree, the sickening smile on his face disappearing for the first time.

Bai Ruoyao was staring at Tang Mo with a deadly stare, and the next second, he simply kicked his feet up and charged straight at him ---

"Tang Mo, I'll kill you!!!"

The next time we meet, I will kill you.
