The Earth is Online - Chapter 198
[Chapter 198]
“Ding dong! New rules added in the 4.5 version of the Black Tower—”
“First, turn on the ‘Grab Six Mode’. The first three players/teams who clear the sixth floor of the Black Tower will get a clue about the seventh floor.”
“Second, as of 6:00 on June 10th, the area that has not cleared the fifth floor of the black tower will be forced to attack the tower. All players in this area (except those who are playing the game) will all enter the tower attack game. Not entered After the player of the tower attack game leaves the instance, if no one clears the fifth floor of the black tower in the area, he will still be forced to attack the tower.”
“Third, it is expected that the 5.0 version will open the interoperability mode, please explore by yourself.”
The above three rules, Black Tower broadcast three times in a row.
“Ding Dong! 3.96 million players successfully loaded the game…”
“Twenty thousand players successfully loaded the game…”
“Game save…”
“Player data loading…”
“Save successfully…”
“Successful loading…”
“‘Grab Six Mode’ has been updated…”
“Ding Dong! On June 7, 2018, the Black Tower version 4.5 was officially launched, and players are welcome to enter the game.”
“Players please work hard to attack the tower!”
Shanghai, Nanjing Road.
A strong man looked at the dark giant tower in astonishment, scratched his head, and turned his head: “Doctor, what do you mean? This six-game mode originally wanted us to quickly attack the sixth floor of the black tower? We haven’t captured the fifth floor yet, so why should we be on the sixth floor?”
Beijing.
This grab-six mode was also different from what Tang Mo imagined.
“It turned out to be simply the first to attack the sixth floor?”
There are many strong people in Beijing, and most people take a wait-and-see attitude towards the black tower. Suddenly there is a six-game mode, and it is obviously urging the player to attack the tower. Tang Mo thought for a moment and looked at Fu Wenduo: “The fifth floor is not important, the sixth floor is what really matters. The clues to clear the seventh floor, this temptation is greater than all rare items.”
There are not many new rules in the Black Tower version 4.5, only three, but the amount of information is huge.
Mu Huixue smiled and said, “The update of the Black Tower is over, then I’ll go first.”
Tang Mo and the others did not leave her.
The woman in black disappeared in twos and threes into the modern steel building, and soon disappeared.
Mu Huixue was neither an enemy nor a friend. She is powerful. Before they get to know her, it is impossible for Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo to form a team with her to clear the fifth floor, which will greatly increase the difficulty of the game. So she chose to leave at this time, but it was a better choice.
For a time, there were only four members of the team left in the building.
Chen Shanshan looked grim: “The forced attack on the tower after three days is not so important. In this update, the sixth mode and the 5.0 version… Brother Tang, Major Fu, these two points are very important. This is the first black tower. A preview of the next version update.”
Fu Wensheng asked in confusion, “What is the communication mode?”
Tang Mo: “In the literal sense, it should be some kind of communication. For example, the player and the black tower boss, the underground and monsters in the black tower boss, and the last possibility… is the communication between the player and the player.” After a pause, he continued to analyze: “At present, even if it is a player in the same city, for example, we want to find the Tianxuan Organization, there is no phone contact, we can only go to the No. 80 Middle School and meet them. Luo Fengcheng wants to spread the news. , and also have to send Jakes to send Shanshan all the way. After the earth went online, the way of human long-distance communication was completely cut off.”
In front of the two children, Tang Mo did not hide the fact that he and Fu Wenduo had turkey eggs: “No surprise, unless it is a prop that can be connected to each other like me and Fu Wenduo, there are more than three million players in the world, no one Feel free to communicate.”
Chen Shanshan interjected: “There should be 3.96 million players at present, and 20,000 players are returnees.”
Fu Wensheng remembered that when the Black Tower version 4.0 was updated half a month ago, there were more than 300,000 returnees. He was shocked: “How long has it been, they only have 20,000 people left?”
Chen Shanshan: “Most of the returnees should have turned into regular players. Some of the returnees should be dead.”
Tang Mo frowned, pondering over and over the content of this update of the Black Tower.
“Grab Six Mode, Interconnect Mode…”
“Intercommunication Mode…”
Fu Wenduo said in a low voice, “So far, players from the ten regions have never been able to communicate with each other.”
Tang Mo looked up at him.
Fu Wenduo: “The assembly copy is where players in each community can meet. In the tower attack game, all players in the Huaxia region may encounter it. For example, when you were attacking the second floor of the black tower, you met Xiaosheng. Shanghai, he is in Nanjing.”
Tang Mo immediately understood what he meant: “You mean, after version 5.0, players from different regions can also enter the same game? Maybe players from China region team up with players from Europe region to attack towers?”
Fu Wenduo nodded lightly, then shook his head again: “It’s just my guess.”
But this guess is very reasonable.
But in any case, before the arrival of the Black Tower 5.0 version, these are just their speculations.
Without further ado, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo decided to enter the tower attack game immediately after the new version of the Black Tower was updated. He and Fu Wenduo looked at each other and nodded in unison. At present, they are located at the intersection of Dongcheng District and Chaoyang District. If you want to start the tower attack game, you must go to the black tower directly above the Forbidden City.
The four quietly went downstairs. Tang Mo’s body was close to the wall, and he cautiously stuck his head out to look around the situation: “No one.”
Fu Wenduo lowered his head and stared at his younger brother with deep eyes: “Can I go alone?”
Fu Wensheng nodded vigorously: “No problem, I can go over there.”
Fu Wenduo gave him a deep look, and his voice was calm: “Go ahead.”
The next second, the short boy rushed out at a very fast speed. He chose the shade of the road every time, carefully avoiding possible prying eyes. It didn’t take long for him to disappear at the corner of the street, heading towards Chaoyang District.
Fu Wensheng is going to No. 80 Middle School.
It’s not too far from No. 80 Middle School, nor is it near. Last night, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo unanimously decided that Fu Wensheng would not participate in this tower attack, and Chen Shanshan would participate together. Chen Shanshan’s force is not high, and she has only attacked the two-story black tower. In other words, she doesn’t have a high “sense of presence” in the black tower, and with her, the difficulty of attacking the tower for three people will not increase too much.
In addition, Chen Shanshan’s brain may allow Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo to clear the game faster.
They only have three days.
Fu Wensheng had been in the Tianxuan Organization for a while, and it was the best choice for him to hide there when Fu Wenduo was away. Brother Fu himself said that Ruan Wangshu would not refuse to take him in. But just now, Fu Wenduo said to him, “If we don’t clear the fifth floor of the black tower after three days, you can immediately enter a relatively safe dungeon game, don’t rush to clear the level, and wait for our news.”
Yes, this is a loophole left by the 4.5 version of the Black Tower.
For players who are participating in the game, the Black Tower cannot force them to attack the tower immediately, and can only force them to attack the tower after they clear the game. With Fu Wensheng’s current strength, it is very dangerous to rashly attack the fourth floor of the black tower. So if Fu Wenduo didn’t clear the fifth floor of the black tower after three days, brother Fu could just find a simple copy and go in first, delaying the time as much as possible.
Fu Wensheng ran to an intersection, and he found a hidden shop to hide. He first vigilantly observed the surroundings to make sure that there was no danger, and then swooped out and quickly arrived at No. 80 Middle School.
When the child walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, took out a silver pistol from his pocket, aimed and shot without hesitation.
The female doctor in a white coat reacted very quickly to dodge the bullet, walked out from behind the door, and shouted in dissatisfaction, “Hey, what are you doing, you little brat. I came out to pick you up, what are you doing? And beat people.”
Seeing that the person hiding behind the school gate was Li Miaomiao, Fu Wensheng’s tense body relaxed, but his face was not so good-looking.
“…Are you coming to pick me up?”
What’s going on? The news that he was going to the Tianxuan Organization for asylum was a temporary decision last night, and no one told him. And why was Li Miaomiao picking him up…
Li Miaomiao saw through the children’s thoughts at a glance, and shrugged with a smile: “He said, with your strength, you definitely can’t force the attack on the tower, Fu Wenduo, Tang Mo and the others must quickly attack the fifth floor. The sky is falling. With you supporting us, we won’t have to fight the fifth floor desperately, just wait for you to clear the customs. They are going to attack the tower, of course they have to find a place to settle you. But I didn’t expect that you are the only one here. .” Li Miaomiao looked behind Fu Wensheng several times, but did not see anyone else. “No, your brother is so relieved, it’s okay for you to come alone?”
Brother Fu said unconvinced, “What’s wrong with me alone, nothing will happen to me!” He was very confident in his own strength.
Li Miaomiao gave a meaningful “Oh”, and then laughed. Fu Wensheng complained loudly and depressedly, Li Miaomiao laughed even louder, and entered the No. 80 Middle School together.
On the other side, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo had already arrived around the Forbidden City.
An hour ago, the Black Tower had just been updated with a new version, and there may be players around who haven’t left. But they didn’t think about it too much, and went straight to the front and came to the bottom of the black tower.
After the Eve game on the elevated road, almost all the senior players in Beijing knew Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo. When they thought about it, they understood what the two of them were going to do under the black tower at such a time. They were always afraid of Tang Mo’s strength, but now that they want to attack the tower, they are more than welcome.
Tang Mo turned to look at Fu Wenduo, who nodded lightly at him.
Tang Mo took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said calmly, “Confirm, enter the tower attack game.”
At the same moment, Fu Wenduo and Chen Shanshan also said together, “Confirm, enter the tower attack game.”
In an instant, cheerful music sounded in the minds of the three at the same time. Accompanying this music is the crisp children’s voice of the Black Tower——
“Ding dong! The fifth floor of the black tower (normal mode) is officially opened. The multiplayer confrontation game begins to load…”
“Sandbox Generation…”
“Data loaded…”
“Welcome to the River of Fantasy!”
The dazzling white light filled Tang Mo’s eyes, and he subconsciously narrowed his eyes. The white light is getting weaker and fainter, followed by a gentle sound of running water. The sound of running water was very familiar. Tang Mo always felt that he had heard it somewhere before, and he heard it often. When the white light completely dissipated, he quickly turned his head and looked around. However, before his head turned around, he suddenly froze.
With a heavy weight in his hand, Tang Mo lowered his head slowly, and then: “…”
Sensing that there was someone beside him, Tang Mo immediately turned to look at him. The moment he saw him clearly, he glanced down reflexively, and then said again, “…”
Fu Wenduo: “…”
The two of them zipped up their trousers expressionlessly and walked out of the dilapidated bathroom together.
This is a long corridor. The floor of the corridor is made of yellow and damp long wood spliced one by one, and at the end of the corridor is the toilet where they just stayed. Tang Mo looked at Fu Wenduo’s outfit and found that he was wearing a uniform with blue edges on a white background. He raised his arm again, and found that he was still wearing the original clothes, which had not changed.
“Where is Shanshan?”
It seemed that he was very used to wearing this kind of military uniform. Fu Wenduo tidied up his cuffs and said, “We came out of the men’s toilet just now. I listened, and there was no one in the women’s toilet, and Shanshan was not in it. ”
Tang Mo: “What’s the matter with this dress?”
The voice fell, and the prompt sound of the black tower sounded appropriately——
“Ding Dong! Players Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo have entered the customs department of the Underworld Kingdom, temporarily replacing the customs officers Mr. A and Mr. B as staff members of the department.”
“Friendly reminder: Players Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo are very good at disguising. In the eyes of everyone else, they are Mr. A and Mr. B. Only in their own eyes can they see their true colors.”
It turned out that at the moment of entering the game, he and Fu Wenduo simultaneously replaced the two underground men of the so-called “customs department”. So what the two underground people were doing at the time was what they were doing.
…the two were on the toilet at the time.
Realizing this, Tang Mo’s face darkened a bit.
After a slight cough, Tang Mo said, “Let’s find Shanshan first.”
The two walked out along the corridor.
Halfway through, the sound of rapid footsteps came from the corner. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo did not change their expressions, and continued to walk forward calmly, as if they were really the staff of this customs department. Soon, the owner of the footsteps appeared.
A dwarf wearing a blue-edged uniform on a white background with huge feet rushed up like a cannonball.
“Damn, what are you two guys doing, are you being lazy! Another group of monsters is going to go through customs. What are you doing? Why don’t you come and work for me!”
As he spoke, the dwarf grabbed Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo’s arms with both hands and dragged them forward. Tang Mo was surprised to find that the dwarf was so powerful that even he couldn’t break free from the shackles of the other party.
Fortunately, let the other party go.
Tang Mo gestured with his eyes: What is the customs department of the Underworld Kingdom? Have you heard of the River of Fantasy?
never heard of that. Fu Wenduo’s expression was calm, if it were ignored that he was being dragged away by a dwarf at the moment, he looked as leisurely as if he was taking three steps.
Tang Mo thought for a while: Customs, the underground and the monster in the black tower have to go through the customs, where can they go after passing the customs… The river of fantasy…
Suddenly, a name flashed in Tang Mo’s heart. He looked at Fu Wenduo in astonishment, and found that Fu Wenduo also thought of that place.
At this moment, the three left the corridor.
The moist wind was blowing in the face, and a large pink river came into view. What they were in was actually an old-fashioned wooden building in the middle of the river, with water in all directions. And this water is the pink river at the junction of the Underworld Kingdom and the Monster World!
The dwarf sniffed the wind and slapped his mouth contentedly: “Ah, it’s all the smell of meat. The weather is so nice today, and the river is so blue.”
Tang Mo grabbed the key word: “Blue?”
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, the dwarf slowed down and looked at him with strange eyes: “My dear Mr. B, isn’t the water of the River of Fantasy in your eyes blue? Let me think about it, it is the best drink. The orange of banana wine, or the same dirty black as your hair? The color of the river of fantasy is different in everyone’s eyes, whatever you think about it, what color it will be.”
Tang Mo was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Fu Wenduo.
Fu Wenduo: “…”
Half a year ago, Tang Mo was forced to attack the first floor of the black tower by the black tower. Before entering the game of attacking the tower, he contacted Fu Wenduo and asked him to tell him what happened when he attacked the first floor. At that time, Fu Wenduo told him in a cold voice—
“The dividing line between humans and monsters is clear, with a pink river in the middle of their world. 』
pink river…
pink river.
If he was preconceived and misled by Fu Wenduo, he subconsciously thought that the river was pink. Then Fu Wenduo saw pink…
Fu Wenduo explained in a low voice, “The boatman in charge of the ferry said that this is a pink river.” That’s why he saw the pink river.
Tang Mo: “…Well.”
Fu Wenduo looked at him.
Tang Mo looked up at him.
After holding back for a while, he couldn’t help twitching the corners of his lips.
Fu Wenduo: “…”
“Okay, what are you still doing, don’t hurry up and work for me!”
In the middle of the turbulent river, a crumbling dilapidated wooden house stood still under the scouring of the river. Extending from this hut to both sides, a long wooden suspension bridge extends to the Underworld Kingdom, and another wooden suspension bridge extends to the monster world.
On the wooden suspension bridge on the side of the Underworld Kingdom, a short-haired girl held a huge lollipop and walked onto the suspension bridge with a blank expression. Most of the monsters standing around her were all kinds of black tower monsters, but they didn’t think this human girl was strange, because in their eyes, what they saw was not a human being, but their companions.
“I haven’t seen Mr. Grea’s performance for a long time. I miss him so much. Is the circus really bankrupt and can’t perform any more?” , gently wipe the tears with a handkerchief.
Her companion, a thin hamster, sat on her shoulder and said, “I also miss His Royal Highness Grea. He is really the most handsome gentleman in the Underworld Kingdom.”
Chen Shanshan followed the flow and walked silently. She seemed to be looking down at the ground, but in fact her ears had been pricked up, gathering information about her surroundings.
Everything was too sudden for her right now. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo could not be found, and the mission was nowhere to be seen, so she was suddenly thrown into this place and into the monster pile. If it was Fu Wensheng, he might have turned pale with fright, and even revealed his flaws.
Chen Shanshan calmly followed the monster army to the center of the suspension bridge.
Chen Shanshan didn’t notice that at the back of the monster army, there were two werewolf-like monsters walking towards the suspension bridge.
“Hahaha, David, you are so funny. You have such ugly ears and you still smell so bad, it smells like a beast!”
The brown-haired man said angrily, “Pete, shut up! You are also a wolf now!”
The two mocked their teammates at each other. If they weren’t in the army of monsters, they seemed to be able to do it directly. Just as their feet landed on the suspension bridge, an icy child’s voice suddenly sounded in the minds of the five people.
“Ding dong! Publish a side quest: Find the stolen goods smuggled by monsters/protect the stolen goods you want to smuggle.”
“Since the Underworld Kingdom set up a customs on the River of Fantasy, the taxes paid by the Underworld and Black Tower monsters who travel between the two places every day have made the king earn another round of fat. This is a huge wealth! Little monsters like to go there. The Underworld Kingdom buys Santa’s lollipops, but the big monster thinks more about… making money!”
“The slogan of the monster in the dark tower: we don’t pay taxes, we don’t pay taxes, we don’t pay taxes!”
“Say the important thing three times.”
