The Earth is Online - Chapter 149

[Chapter 149]

In the dark and dark room, the clock ticked all at once.

It’s getting dark, pull up a thin layer of sun veil. The bustling light of the city shines into the house through the window screen, and a faint dark light shines on the living room floor. The whole house was frighteningly silent, the phone was dropped on the ground, and a mouse also fell on the ground, cracking several openings, obviously being dropped by someone.

The kitchen faucet slowly dripped a drop of water.

“pat-”

Hearing this sound, the tall and thin young man curled up in the corner of the bedroom shook for a while, and then he buried his head in his legs, trembling all over.

In a classroom of the No. 80 Middle School in Chaoyang District, Li Miaomiao was lying on the desk and said calmly: “That copy is the strangest copy that Qi Heng and I have ever seen. There is no boss, nor any other monsters in the Black Tower. Enter After the dungeon, Heita only told us to find a way to leave this dungeon, and no other conditions were given.” Li Miaomiao said slowly, “At first, Qi Heng and I were very fond of the human who appeared in the dungeon. Be wary, but gradually we found that he couldn’t see us and we couldn’t touch him.”

“He is the ‘official player Wang Zexin’.”

Transparent people may reappear at any time, and maybe the next time a powerful transparent person with a higher ranking will appear. Li Miaomiao briefly described the scene she saw in that copy. A dim house, as if time stood still. At first, the player named Wang Zexin wanted to contact the outside world and escape. But he couldn’t escape at all.

The windows were sealed, and the glass became steel, which could not be broken.

Can’t open the door.

Make a call and only get a reminder of “out of service area”. There is no network, and there is no way to communicate with the outside world.

Li Miaomiao: “The time is 7 o’clock in the evening on the 17th, and it will be 7 o’clock in the morning the next day, which is 7 o’clock on the 18th. This is the first night, Qi Heng and I did nothing, just stay by the side. Observe the copy. In the morning, the neighbor on the opposite side went out, and Wang Zexin kept knocking on the security door, but the person on the opposite side couldn’t hear it.”

Ruan Wangshu: “This dungeon is equivalent to separating the house from the outside world and becoming a dungeon alone. It is impossible to leave the dungeon without clearing the game.”

When the words fell, Ruan Wangshu raised his head and glanced at Tang Mo.

Tang Mo stood in the center of the classroom with a calm expression. Ruan Wangshu heard Qi Heng say that Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo once wanted to enter Wang Zexin’s house, they should know Wang Zexin, or even be friends. But now Tang Mo didn’t show any abnormality, maybe it was well hidden, or maybe it was really just an ordinary friend.

Tang Mo: “At 8 am on the 18th, did he disappear? Did he enter the world of transparent people?”

Li Miaomiao shook her head: “No. He is not a transparent person, nor is he an official player. Because he only completed half of the black tower game, he is really dead.”

Li Miaomiao knew that this person was Tang Mo’s friend, but she did not take into account the emotions of the so-called friend, she said directly: “Qi Heng and I stayed in that copy for a total of five nights, that is, 60 hours. Stop repeating Wang Zexin’s last day before his death. In the end, we finally found something strange, the clock on the wall in the living room.”

Tang Mo was stunned: “…Clock?”

Li Miaomiao’s injury seemed to be healed, she sat up from the table. Her face was still stained with blood, and there were a lot of injuries on her body. When she looked at Tang Mo with those bloodshot eyes, there was a sense of schadenfreude. Li Miaomiao said: “Beijing time, on November 18, 2017, at 8:00 am, the earth went online. Not a minute, not a minute. At the moment when the earth went online, the Black Tower issued an announcement to the world, and all failed to upload. All the humans who entered the game disappeared and entered the world of transparent people. This is a fact we already know.”

Fu Wenduo: “So that copy is related to time?”

Li Miaomiao sat upright: “In order to guess these two words, Qi Heng and I stayed in it for 60 hours. I saw that Wang Zexin died over and over again, and watched him enter the room over and over again. These two words It’s time. Wang Zexin participated in a black tower game before returning to his room. In that black tower game, he competed with another player to capture each other’s time. This is what we were told by the black tower after the dungeon was cleared. Wang Zexin was in that game. He won the other team for five seconds. The other team was eliminated by him, and then he returned to Earth.”

Tang Mo’s body trembled, he slowly raised his head and looked at Li Miaomiao.

The people in the Tianxuan Organization have long known the truth of this copy, and among the four Tang Mo, Chen Shanshan also slowly understood the answer.

Li Miaomiao looked at them like this, smiled and shook her head: “Yes, you guessed it right, Tang Mo, your friend died in the five seconds he got. He won in five seconds. After the game’ returned to Earth, he also had an extra five seconds. In those sixty hours, the black tower went online four times, and Qi Heng and I had absolutely no idea what the black tower wanted us to do or what it was thinking. Until the third time the earth went online, when Wang Zexin disappeared, I found that he turned his head hard when he was dying, and looked in the direction of the living room. I think he also understood at the last time, and he got five seconds. , because … the clock on the living room wall reads 8:05.”

At the last moment of his life, when Wang Zexin heard the sound of the black tower, he suddenly understood what he had been missing.

He’s a smart guy, otherwise he wouldn’t have won that Dark Tower game and been a half-regular player. But he lacks information. The second he stepped into the house, he didn’t know that his life was five seconds longer than the outside world, and he didn’t know why he suddenly fell into such a strange place.

However, he knew that at 8:00 in the morning three days ago, the black tower made a sound for the first time, announcing that the earth was online.

Now that the black tower made another sound, he watched his body slowly disappear, and countless thoughts flashed in his mind. In an instant, he understood the truth, turned his head with all his might, and saw the clock that was five seconds faster than the outside world. But it was too late, he only had one head and one pair of eyes left, and it was impossible to adjust the time.

So he stared at the clock and died.

Tang Mo looked at Li Miaomiao quietly: “So as long as you adjust the time back, you will win?”

“Yes, Qi Heng and I took the clock off the wall and moved the second hand back five seconds… Then we cleared the dungeon. Originally, I didn’t understand why this kind of thing was made into a separate dungeon. , this Wang Zexin just encountered a very strange dungeon. But after Mu Huixue cleared the fourth floor of the black tower, I realized that the black tower was reminding the surviving players that this situation may occur in the black tower game. ”

Li Miaomiao concluded: “This reality copy has no meaning. The only purpose is to give players a warning. Always pay attention to whether you have truly cleared the game.” After a while, looking at Tang Mo’s calm expression, Li Miaomiao felt Deliberately smiled: “Aren’t you sad, I thought that was your friend.”

Tang Mo: “Sad.”

Everyone looked at Tang Mo in astonishment, wondering how he suddenly expressed his emotions, obviously he was very calm. Even Fu Wenduo didn’t expect Tang Mo to answer this question. He looked at Tang Mo in surprise, thinking that Tang Mo would ignore Li Miaomiao’s words.

The female doctor was also stunned. After a while, she said, “I’m sorry.”

Tang Mo’s tone was calm, and he looked at Ruan Wangshu: “I understand what you mean. Whether the Black Tower game is over or not will likely affect the player’s reality. After…” After a while, Tang Mo continued: “In Wang Zexin’s copy In this space, he thought he had cleared the mysterious game and returned to Earth. In fact, the game was not over yet. His time was messed up, so he was blocked in that space, and he needed to do something to bring himself back. With the correct timeline, the game is truly over. Is that the case with Mu Huixue?”

Ruan Wangshu: “Yes, Mu Huixue is probably the same. This can explain why Heita suddenly said that she had started the 4.0 version update, and then suddenly stopped it. Because in the moment after finishing one game, she started another game. She didn’t really clear the fourth floor of the black tower, maybe until now, she is still looking for a way to clear the game. When she completely clears the fourth floor of the black tower, version 4.0 will be opened.”

The four of Tang Mo pulled up a chair and sat opposite Ruan Wangshu.

Chen Shanshan said for the second time: “So there are two things we should pay attention to at the moment. First, catch the transparent people who are alone. Before they all know that the two worlds are merging, take us lightly and attack us as much as possible. Kill more transparent people. Second, attack the fourth floor of the black tower.” After a pause, the little girl’s eyes swept across several members of the Tianxuan in the classroom: “The people in this classroom should be Tianxuan. core members?”

Ruan Wangshu: “At the beginning, there were six people in Tianxuan. Yuzheng was added later, and after Qi Heng was removed, there are still six people.”

Chen Shanshan: “Have you cleared the third floor?”

Ruan Wangshu nodded: “Li Miaomiao is on the second floor.”

Chen Shanshan turned her head to look at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, and after obtaining their consent, she looked at Ruan Wangshu: “There is something we didn’t say just now. Major Fu received an additional reward from the black tower when he cleared the third floor of the black tower. , The Black Tower suggests that the surviving players immediately attack the fourth floor of the Black Tower. The Black Tower generally seldom talks nonsense, and at most plays tricks and plays with words. This time its advice is likely to be related to transparent people.”

Unexpectedly, after Chen Shanshan finished speaking, Ruan Wangshu fell into a strange silence.

Tang Mo instantly sensed the other party’s strange look, and only heard the voice of Lian Yuzheng: “We didn’t talk about this just now. When I first cleared the third floor of the black tower, I also heard a black tower boss say it’s best to clear the customs quickly. If the black tower is on the fourth floor. The other party’s original words are ‘anyway, you are all dying, and none of you have cleared the fourth floor, so I won’t care about a group of dead people’.”

Tang Mo turned his head to look at Fu Wenduo, and their eyes met.

A few seconds later, Tang Mo quickly made a decision: “The matter of jointly attacking the transparent people can be settled. As for the attack on the fourth floor of the black tower, it is our own business. The appearance of transparent people has always been irregular, and it is impossible for us to find them. Su Xiao, so now the more important thing is to kill the transparent people and clear the fourth floor.”

Ruan Wangshu: “Tianxuan has an intelligence network in Beijing.”

“Okay, then we can share information.”

The two parties briefly exchanged the information they had. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo decided to leave here first and join Fu Wensheng. Although they didn’t think that the invitation to practice Yu Zheng was a trap, they still let Brother Fu hide in a safe place to wait for their news, just in case. With only Chen Shanshan alone, they can take the little girl out of the Tianxuan Base Camp safely, and it will be difficult to have another brother Fu.

After confirming the general cooperation plan, Tang Mo turned around and wanted to leave. At this moment, a voice sounded from behind him: “Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo, do you want to attack the fourth floor of the Black Tower directly after you go back this time?”

Tang Mo’s footsteps stopped, he turned his head and looked at the pale boy.

Tang Mo did not deny it.

Ruan Wangshu said: “You and Major Fu should be two people to challenge the fourth floor of the black tower. With your strategy and force, there is really no problem, and there is hope to pass the customs. There is a boy younger than me in your team, he Should he have the ability to heal? But obviously he can’t use force, otherwise you wouldn’t bring him today.”

Fu Wenduo lowered his eyes: “What do you want to say?”

“How about one more person?”

Tang Mo smiled: “With you?”

The next moment, Ruan Wangshu shook his head gently: “Add her.”

Li Miaomiao, who was pointed at, was also shocked, and she said puzzled: “Head?!”

Ruan Wangshu did not answer. With a flip of his palm, a knife appeared in his hand. No one expected him to suddenly move, and without hesitation, he slashed his wrist with a knife. Blood spurted out, but Ruan Wangshu didn’t even blink. The broken hand fell on the ground, Ruan Wangshu stretched out the still bleeding wrist and handed it to Li Miaomiao.

“……head?”

It was Ruan Wangshu’s cold stare who answered Li Miaomiao.

Li Miaomiao’s face changed and she gritted her teeth. A few seconds later, she still stretched out her hand, muttering inaudible words in her mouth, and pressed her hand on Ruan Wangshu’s broken wrist.

The thick clouds were blown away by the wind, and the moonlight shone on Ruan Wangshu’s broken wrist. At a speed visible to the naked eye, blood vessels and skin were rapidly formed, and a brand new hand appeared on the cross-section of the broken wrist. Tang Mo was startled, and he looked back at Li Miaomiao again. However, he saw that on Li Miaomiao’s wrist, a hand suddenly disappeared. No blood came out, but her face was a little ugly, as if she was enduring pain. But after half a minute, her hands gradually grew.

Ten minutes later, Li Miaomiao raised her left hand, and everything was the same as before.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo looked at each other, and the two instantly understood what the other meant.

Fu Wenduo has the ability of “genetic recombination”. After his limbs are broken, he can quickly grow new limbs. But his speed is definitely not so fast. At the same time, what Li Miaomiao grew out of was not her own hand, but Ruan Wangshu’s hand.

Ruan Wangshu: “This is her power. You only know the first function of her power. She can not only transfer the pain to others by hurting herself, but also transfer other people’s wounds to herself. Her powerful self-healing ability is restored. Li Miaomiao will go away, each of you will have an extra life. She is only the second floor of the black tower and will not increase the difficulty of your dungeon. Other than that…”

Ruan Wangshu took out a golden coin from his pocket and threw it to Li Miaomiao.

Li Miaomiao quickly caught it: “Head? Give this to me too?”

“She also owns the king’s gold coins.” Ruan Wangshu said coldly, “The transparent people are much stronger than us, we must quickly attack the fourth floor of the black tower. I am seriously injured and need to rest for a few days.” So, leave it to you .

Tang Mo’s eyes swept across Ruan Wangshu and Li Miaomiao. After a long time, he smiled and nodded: “Okay.”

one day later–

“Ding dong! The fourth floor of the black tower (normal mode) is officially opened, and the team game starts to load…”

“Sandbox Generation…”

“Data loaded…”

“Welcome to Schrodinger’s Iron Forest!”
