Black Tower version 3.0 coming March 15, 2018

"What do you mean you killed yourself?"

"Actually, in the beginning, Ms. Ningning was a member of our Nanking group. Her powers are very powerful, but she doesn't like to talk much. I heard that she and the captain, team Xiao, and sister Xiao Tian were classmates and grew up together." Fu Wen opened the rear window of the car, and the cool spring breeze rushed into the car. Children holding their own backpacks, looking at Tang Mo: "Later, when Xiao Tian sister died ...... and disappeared, Ningning sister only went to the Raiders."

Fu Wenduo gets right to the point: "Did she commit suicide?"

Fu Wen Sound nodded, "Right." After a pause, he realized, "Eh, Brother, Brother Tang, you may have misunderstood.During the three days from November 15th to 18th, players who have killed someone directly become stowaways. But players who committed suicide, although they were also considered to have killed someone, they were already dead, so of course they couldn't become stowaways anymore."

"So you were saying?"

"Sister Ningning did commit suicide yes, and she did die. But at that time, her heart stopped for only a few minutes before Sister Xiao Tian found her." Fu Wen vocalized, "Xiao Tian sister ...... is an official player. The captain and the four of them, he and team Xiao are reservists, sister Ningning is a stowaway, only sister Xiao Tian is an official player. Brother Tang, you are also a formal player, what did you get after you participated in that Black Tower game in the first place?"

Tang Mo had an answer in mind, "My weapon, a giant match."

"Right. So Sister Xiao Tian also got a prop that allows her to revive her opponent as long as they die within five minutes of each other. She only had that one prop, and according to the captain, Ningning and Xiao Tian were roommates before Earth came online. On the first day of the three days, Ningning's mom died suddenly. Her mom was in good health and hadn't been in any car accidents, but she died at home. There was blood all over the place, and she was killed, but the security cameras couldn't find any murderer at all."

Once a person dies, it doesn't mean that all the cells die as well. The more oxygen-depleted cells die faster. Generally speaking, brain cells are the fastest to die. It takes about three to four minutes for all of them to die, followed by heart cells.

With the magical effects of the Black Tower props, it is indeed possible to bring back to life a human who has just been dead for five minutes.

Fu Wenduo: "She entered the Black Tower game?"

The kid nodded, "According to Team Xiao's speculation, that's most likely the case. It's just a pity that Ningning Sister's mom didn't survive that Black Tower game. Ningning Sister is a single parent family and grew up with her mom, so when this suddenly happened, she simply couldn't accept it. She planned to go back to her hometown to see her mom. But this time another thing happened ......"

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo both looked at Fu Wen.

The child put the bag in his arms to one side, he looked seriously at his big brother, and then turned his head to look at Tang Mo. Almost instantly Tang Mo realized that Fu Wen had said so much, but in the end, it was all about this next thing.

What happened to Ningning has nothing to do with Tang Mo or Fu Wenduo. Maybe she personally doesn't mind her past being known by others, and the players in the NJ group won't have a special opinion of her because of that, everyone knows what she's been through. But how and why she became a stowaway has nothing to do with Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, who have already left NJ.

But Fu Wen said it.

Fu Wen sound is not Chai Rong, since he said this matter, he must have intentions.

Tang Mo looked at his little friend's serious face, and in his heart, he thought more about this child who looked afraid of his brother and naive. He said, "So, what are you trying to say?"

Fu Wen Sheng knew that he couldn't hide his little thoughts from Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, he just didn't expect that they would be discovered so quickly. He also wouldn't play dumb, and directly said, "Before we left, the captain told me that you guys were most likely also like Sister Ningning and Team Chai, and that your heartbeats used to speed up before the Earth came online."

"Rapid heartbeat?" Tang Mo's eyes narrowed, "Ningning and Chai Rong's hearts raced?"

"Right. Team Chai's heart rate tops out at 210, and Ningning's is even higher at 308. Her heart was beating too fast, she was irritable, and she even felt a little feverish, so after Ningning's mom's accident, she couldn't go back to her hometown first, so she stayed at home. Xiao Tian's sister wanted to stay with her, but Ningning said she didn't need to and sent her to work. Then Ningning Sister committed suicide." Fu Wen Sheng paused and said, "Team Xiao told me about this matter, and I actually don't think that Sister Ningning is such a fragile person."

There are those who seem strong and powerful and have never been crushed, but in fact it is only because what is lost is not the most important thing.

Fu Wen is very precocious, and according to Fu Wenduo, he could have skipped a grade and gone straight to middle school, but his parents didn't want him to be out of step with his peers, so he went to elementary school. But he's still a kid. For him, he also lost his parents and relatives when Earth came online, but he was still strong enough to survive. That's why he thinks Ningning, who is even stronger than him, should be able to get through the loss of his mother.

This kind of feeling Fu Wen Sheng can not be experienced now. No one knows what was going through her mind at that time. Just as everyone has a different level of pain tolerance, Tang Mo is actually very afraid of pain. He was afraid of needles since he was a child, and he would still cry when his parents took him to the hospital to get a shot before junior high school. It's not that he's pretentious, it's just that everyone has a different level of pain perception.

What you feel as an ant bite and a pinprick may be a cutting pain in someone else's mind.

Tang Mo can't help but think about what could have broken him. He thought for a few moments, not finding an answer. At least now he had experienced the loss of his parents and the death of his best friend. Nothing could hit him again, he just wanted to live.

Leaving aside this topic, which is not suitable for children, Tang Mo asked, "Are Chai Rong and Ningning the only two people in the NJ group who have had their hearts race?"

Fu Wen nodded, ''Right. Before I left, Team Xiao told me that I could tell you about this matter. He also guessed that you guys might have experienced something similar, and he asked me to remind you that this matter of heartbeat acceleration might not determine whether or not a player's psychic ability is strong. But there's no doubt that every player who has experienced a heartbeat acceleration, as long as they're still alive now, seems to have become a top player."

Xiao Jitong didn't take the initiative to talk to Tang Mo about this matter, most likely he was also hiding some of the information. However, he had limited ways of gathering information, so he definitely didn't know as much as Luo Feng City. Tang Mo fell silent as he began to think about all the players he knew who had experienced heartbeat acceleration.

So far, only he, Fu Wenduo, Chai Rong and Ningning, along with Nie Fei of the Atark organization, have experienced the Heartbeat Acceleration Event. Luofeng City named this event "The Black Tower Selector".

Regular players and stowaways all must have powers, but it's not just regular players and stowaways who experience heart racing. Chai Rong is a reservist, but he too has experienced a racing heart.

"There isn't any direct relationship between Black Tower Selectors and Black Tower players." Tang Mo analyzed, "Luo Fengcheng also said that none of the four Black Tower Selectors he studied ended up surviving. None of them became players. But as long as the selectors who survived, most of them were very powerful."

Fu Wenduo: "The psychic ability may not have anything to do with the Black Tower; all the Black Tower does is catalyze it. Everyone's psychic ability is different, this kind of thing may be human beings themselves have. Then ...... the matter of being selected by the Black Tower itself, it is also possible that it is not the Black Tower's will, but that there is something special about these people?"

Tang Mo's eyes lit up, "You're saying that neither the psychic ability nor the heartbeat acceleration has anything to do with the Black Tower. It's something we have in ourselves?"

"Just a possibility." Fu Wenduo looked at Tang Mo steadily : "So, what are the similarities between us people. That's the most important key."

Tang Mo was intrigued by this peculiar idea.

He had studied with Luo Fengcheng a long time ago that whether it was a full-fledged player, a stowaway, or a reservist, all of them actually possessed supernormal abilities. Reservists didn't have supernormal abilities for the time being, but after clearing the first floor of the Black Tower, the reservists would also have supernormal abilities and even become full players. So are the supernormal abilities that every human possesses given to them by the Black Tower or not?

If so, by what means did the Black Tower choose the powers given to humans. Tang Mo's little bitchy book, Fu Wenduo's ability to transform into Iron Man, and Fu Wen Sheng's mineral water. Is it because Tang Mo is a librarian who loves books, Fu Wenduo used to love reading Iron Man, and Fu Wen Sheng loves drinking water?

Tang Mo stifled the odd thought.

...... Well, better not ask Fu Wenduo if he's ever seen Iron Man.

That's certainly not the reason anyway.

More than likely, psychic abilities have always been hidden in every human, only to be catalyzed by the Black Tower as a catalyst.

Then the heartbeat acceleration thing might not be directly related to the Black Tower either.

Tang Mo muses, "First of all, we have to rule out the basic claim that they are all men. Ningning is a woman, so let's discard that common denominator. Secondly, in terms of absolute sanity, Fu Wenduo and I should reach the passing line, Nie Fei is also very sensible, Ningning meets this standard, but ...... Chai Rong does not."

Fu Wen Voice agreed from the sidelines, "The captain is really stupid."

Next Tang Mo and Fu Wen sound off with many more lists of similarities between the five, but in any case, the hypotheses they come up with are always rejected. Of the five, there was always someone who didn't fulfill one of the requirements. As darkness falls, Tang Mo is already in the back seat, asking Fu Wen to find out more about Ningning and Chai Rong in order to find out what they have in common.

A loud horn sounded and the two children looked up at the front seat together.

Fu Wenduo unbuckled his seatbelt and raised an eyebrow, "Taking a break at the service station?"

Tang Mo turned his head to look out the window, only to realize that the sky had long since darkened, and the silent curved moon hung high in the sky.

The three of them got out of the car and rested at this deserted highway service station.

Fu Wen Sheng is very afraid of his big brother, probably because he was bullied a lot when he was a child, and then Fu Wenduo went to join the army, and his prestige is very high in the family, so he doesn't dare to get close to Fu Wenduo. Fu Wenduo lightly swept a glance at him, and the child immediately sat down with Tang Mo. Tang Mo thought to himself: I am not scary at all?

Fu Wen Sheng looked up at him, "Tang, it's okay if you don't sleep for a day. I'm curious about that time you and my brother ...... that time what that weird circus thing was." Being looked at by Fu Wenduo, Fu Wen Sound scrunched his neck tightly and whispered, "What was that time when the two of you went against twenty one Black Tower first floor players? And that time we had a tower attack game, Queen Hong Tao's Jeweled Corridor, how the hell did that psychopath at the end who always laughed die, I thought about it for a long time afterward, and I've never been able to figure it out." So, can you fill me in?

Tang Mo: "......"

You don't dare to talk to your brother and disturb his rest, but you dare to come to me?

Tang Mo's eyes twitched. However, he wasn't going to sleep tonight, so it was fine to talk to his little friend. Everyone will be teammates in the future, and it is impossible for Tang Mo to let go of such a high level milkmaid. Of course before saying ......

Tang Mo smiled and said, "Put your hand out and let's shake hands and talk."

Fu Wen voice: "...... Ha?!"

Tang Mo did not tell Fu Wen Sheng all about his powers for the time being, but only a small part. The child obediently held out his hand, and Tang Mo took it and began to talk about the Jeweled Corridor. There was no need to tell him about Huo Ji's egg, so Tang Mo made up a reason to fool him.

As Tang Mo briefly finished his copy of the Circus of Oddities, one looked up only to see Fu Wenduo leaning against the counter of a breakfast parlor, quietly looking down at them. Moonlight shone down the window, and the tall, handsome man stood in the shadow of the moon, his expression unreadable.

Tang Mo froze slightly, "You're not going to sleep?"

Fu Wenduo's eyes stopped at the hands the two were pulling as he pulled away, "Checked out the powers yet?"

"Not ...... yet," the words fell, and Tang Mo Voice stopped. He loosened his grip on Fu Wen Voice's hand, "There it is."

In the next moment, Tang Mo pressed one hand on the ground, his gaze flickered, and a blue ball of light suddenly appeared in his palm. This blue ball of light was half the size of his head, and it quickly escaped from Tang Mo's hand. Tang Mo reacted very quickly and reached out to grab it. The ball of light was grasped in his palm, and Tang Mo crushed the ball of light with all his strength.

Five seconds later, Tang Mo's face becomes enriched.

When Fu Wenduo saw this expression on his face, the corners of his mouth hooked up slightly, and in his gaze was the implication of sizing him up. Fu Wen Sound was even more curious when he heard that Tang Mo could clearly know someone's special ability, ''Brother Tang, what is my special ability? I only know that I can produce a certain amount of water every day and possess a relatively powerful healing effect. Are there any other effects?"

Tang Mo spread out his palm and clear spring water flowed from his palm.

In addition to knowing the effects of other people's powers, the "Don't try to hide a dime of personal money" power can also copy the other person's powers for a short period of time, but of course the effect is greatly reduced. Seeing Tang Mo using this ability, Fu Wenduo didn't hesitate to take out a dagger from his pocket and slashed his palm.

Tang Mo froze at the sight, but soon he reacted and brought his hand over.

Fu Wenduo took some of the spring water in his palm and gently poured it onto his wound. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I can heal such minor injuries on my own, and the rate of healing is now accelerated by roughly 20%."

Tang Mo nodded, "The effect of my powers after I use them is only 10% of the effect of Whisper."

Fu Wen Sheng asked again, "Brother Tang, what are my powers?"

Tang Mo's movements paused, and after half a day, he looked expressionlessly at Fu Wen Sheng, his tone calm, ''It's true that your psychic ability can produce a large amount of water that possesses healing effects that can be upgraded. However, the conclusion of this Abnormal Ability I copied is not that obvious, I can only roughly know part of your Abnormal Ability's effects, as well as the fact that your Abnormal Ability is now at the third level. All psychic abilities can be upgraded, and I've once seen someone with a level five psychic ability."

Fu Wen Sheng also noticed Tang Mo's strange expression, but he pondered for a moment and did not ask. He thought that there might be something wrong with Tang Mo's own supernormal ability. If there was something wrong with his supernormal ability, it was impossible for Tang Mo to hide it from him.

Seeing that his little friend did not pursue him any further, Tang Mo breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his head, only to see Fu Wenduo looking at him, his brow bone raised.

Fu Wenduo: What's wrong?

Tang Mo : ...... Your brother's powers are interesting.

Fu Wenduo: How?

Tang Mo: Let's walk and talk.

The two left the service station in silence and found an open space, where Tang Mo finally spilled the beans on what he had just seen from the mass of light.

[Alien Power: Noble Centurion in Water]

[Owner: unknown]

[Type: Unknown]

[Function: Production of mineral water with healing effects.]

[Level: III]

[Limit: Unknown]

[Remarks: Unknown ...... you sister! I am the water aristocrat Centurion!!!]

Tang Mo didn't have a single expression on his face when he said that remark, he had long been used to the spitting of the Alien Book, it was just that he didn't expect to actually get a similar effect by using this Privateer Alien Ability to view the Alien Ability. Tang Mo calmly said, ''This Ability can indeed view other people's Abilities, and it can also be copied and used. But the information it views is not complete. Fu Wen Sonic's alien ability is a blue light cluster, he should be one of the genotype, dimensional type and atomic type."

Because of the crippling introduction to the powers, Tang Mo had no way of determining exactly which power the color blue represented. He said, "Let's see if there's a chance in the next few days, I'll try to see if I can copy his psychic ability from wherever Little Voice is, and determine his true limitations and type."

"Good."

Tang Mo: "When will we arrive in Beijing?"

"Within two days at the earliest, four at the latest. No surprises."

That's an acceptable amount of time. Tang Mo began to recall his best friend's home address. He had only been to Beijing once before the Earth came online, and now that his memory had improved, he might still be able to remember the location of his friend's house, only that Beijing was so big, so he didn't know if he would be able to find it successfully. After thinking for a while, Tang Mo turned around and planned to enter the service station.

A low voice sounded behind him.

"Everyone's powers come with such interesting names and ...... notes?"

Tang Mo's footsteps lurched as a bad feeling suddenly surged in his heart. He turned his head, and as expected, Fu Wenduo looked at him with a slight smile, "That supernatural ability of yours, when it collects other people's supernatural abilities, it also has this kind of note and name?"

Tang Mo raised his head and looked calmly at Fu Wenduo, who also looked at him with a light smile. Their gazes met in the air, and neither of them said anything.

As long as Tang Mo did not say anything, no one would know what was written on the book of supernatural abilities. He believed that even if he let Chen Shanshan guess, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to guess that for someone as serious as Tang Mo, his book of supernatural abilities would look like this.

Tang Mo said calmly, "Of course not."

Fu Wenduo opened his mouth and prepared to say more, however, in the next second, a loud beeping sound rang out above their heads. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo raised their heads at the same time and looked vigilantly into the distance.

Almost at the same time, in the base of the Nanjing group, Xiao Jitong was deploying the next plan for the Raider game with Ningning; in the underground parking lot of the Shanghai Atark group, Luo Fengcheng and Chen Shanshan stopped their movements and looked at each other.

This ear-piercingly loud ticking sound resounded in every part of the Huaxia land, and every black tower radiated a colorful light. Countless players walked out into the open and looked up at the mysterious black tower in dismay. When everything ended, it returned to calm. As three months ago, after Christmas was over, all the players had just breathed a sigh of relief when the black towers gave a big surprise gift to players all over the world.

At this present moment, countless clear childish voices cried out in unison--

"Dingdong! Version update notification. on March 15, 2018, Black Tower version 3.0 will be online soon."
