"Dingdong! Triggered main quest: Mr. Tu Zi's Truth Clock Game."

At the sight of the giant Russian nesting doll, Tang Mo tenses up and takes a careful look at the other side.

A two-meter-tall giant Russian nesting doll with a comical black Tu Zi painted on a smooth wooden cover, a white shell with a black Tu Zi on top, blood-red eyes with sinister glints, and a gaping mouth with a hint of human flesh caught in its sharp, triangular shark's teeth.

Its tiny red eyes stared at Tang Mo, sliding from Tang Mo's face to his thighs. There was a greed and hunger in his gaze that he could not hide, and Black Tu Zi sucked in his saliva before looking up into Tang Mo's eyes.

"Human eyeballs dipped in sugar, the best ......"

Tang Mo looked at it indifferently, his left hand always pressed on the small Yang San.

Since a while ago, Tang Mo has been secretly trying to get out of here. When he suddenly saw this Black Tu Zi, Tang Mo fell back two steps, instead of falling off the blue glowing clock, he hit an invisible wall. While Black Tu Zi was observing him, he was also observing his surroundings.

All around is darkness, only this clock and the black Tu Zi set standing at the other end of the clock.

"There is only about one square meter of movable space." Without moving, Tang Mo reached around with the tip of the umbrella of little Yang San, who touched the invisible wall in the air. Tang Mo drew a rough model in his brain.

Now he's trapped in an invisible cage.

The cage is surrounded by invisible walls, and a blue clock is at its feet. The range of motion of his head was not easy to determine, Black Tu Zi was always staring at him, and Tang Mo could not make a move to test it. All in all, he was now trapped on this clock, trapped on the number "6".

Tang Mo's gaze gazes upon Black Tu Zi, who also hems and haws at him with a strange laugh.

Half a minute later, Tang Mo let go of little Yang San. seeing his movement, Black Tu Zi's eyes narrowed, he pondered for a moment, and laughed hoarsely, "Hey, human, why don't you pick up that little pink umbrella of yours and desperately fight back at me? Look at your disgusting, all-lace, little ladies' umbrella, it reminds me of something very sickening. Maybe you'd like me to skewer you with it and put you on a rack and grill you? That would be a great idea, and looking at it that way, the disgusting umbrella seems kind of cute."

Tang Mo did not reply to Black Tu Zi's words, he directly extended his arm to touch the top of his head. After stretching his arm, about two meters away, Tang Mo touched the invisible ceiling.

Sure enough there is a wall here too!

"Humans!"

A furious roar resounded so loudly that the entire space shook three times. Tang Mo's heart lurched as he turned around alertly to look at the black Tu Zi, but was not too alarmed. After a moment, Tang Mo hooked up his lips and laughed, "It looks like you can't run over here either, so you can only stand there and stare at me dryly?"

Black Tu Zi was shocked.

Tang Mo said faintly, "When you first entered this dark place, you were not on the clock, but you walked up on your own and stood on the number '12'. Since then ......," he looked up and smiled slightly, "you haven't moved a step. You've been standing on that number '12'. So, can you move now?"

Black Tu Zi's red eyes instantly became even more bright red as it stared angrily at Tang Mo and growled, "I'm going to eat you!!!"

The giant Tu Zi condor suddenly stomped hard on the ground, which caused its bulky body to leap. But it only flew a few centimeters upwards before it was slapped back by an invisible wall. The Black Tu Zi landed hard on the ground, it didn't make it out of the small cage that was blocking it, but the earth was shaken from side to side by it.

Tang Mo braced one hand against the wall, stabilized his body, and the next moment, he looked at the ground in surprise.

The blue glowing clock was surprisingly motionless on the violently shaking ground!

The earth trembled and space shook, but the blue clock seemed to stay the same forever, holding a steady plane and not shaking a bit. Black Tu Zi was furious, and like Tang Mo said, it could not get out of that small space, but it could keep hitting the wall. It hit the wall again and again with great force, and it was extremely amusing to see Tang Mo only holding onto the wall to stabilize her body.

It laughed out loud and slammed into the wall in front of it with yet more force. Tang Mo pulled out the little Yang San and propped the tip of her umbrella against the ground as she stared up at it.

Black Tu Zi said, "Human, I will eat you, and soon you will realize what a big mistake you just made."

Tang Mo was unfazed by Black Tu Zi's taunts as he calmly looked at his opponent.

One man and one rabbit faced each other on an odd clock, wide-eyed, and no one spoke again. Time passed slowly, and no one knew how long it had been, when a clattering sound of footsteps came from the darkness. Tang Mo and Black Tu Zi immediately turned their heads and looked towards the place of the sound. Only to see that in the dark space, in the direction corresponding to the number "3", a small white Tu Zi came bounding over.

This Tu Zi is wearing an elaborate little dress with a metal ring in its ear. It pulled its pocket watch out of its arms as it quickly ran forward, "It's too late, it's too late ...... ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ......"

Bang!

Tang Mo watches as Mr. Tu Zi trips over the edge of the clock and falls onto the dial. The cute little Tu Zi rubbed his head and in a daze picked up his pocket watch to check the time again. As soon as he saw the time, he woke up and cried, "I'm late again, I'm late again," and then he got up and kept running, reaching the center of the clock where the hour hand meets the second hand, and then suddenly disappeared.

Tang Mo watched the scene in horror, his brain racing, but his face was calm.

A grim laugh rang out, "Humans."

Tang Mo raised his head and looked coldly at Black Tu Zi. Tang Mo wasn't in a hurry, he hadn't triggered the main game yet. Black Tower told him to touch Mr. Tu Zi's tail, and he did so, completing the side quest. Next should be the main quest.

Black Tu Zi clenched its teeth and stared indignantly at Tang Mo. after a long time, it laughed, "You think I accidentally walked on the Truth Clock?"

Tang Mo's heart fluttered and he did not say anything.

Black Tu Zi hemmed and hawed, its laughter growing louder and more frantic. Suddenly, it popped up with renewed vigor, and this time it slammed into the ground even more viciously. The entire earth trembled. Tang Mo steadied herself against the wall and stared at it warily. In the earthquake-like trembling, only a furious roar suddenly rang out, "I'm going to start the Truth Clock Game!"

A look of dismay crossed Tang Mo's face.

Rumble!

The hour and minute hands fixed on the clock suddenly began to turn rapidly. The two hands, one long and one short, seemed to be fans, spinning rapidly. As they rotated, the clock flashed an even brighter blue light. The hands stop and the light diminishes. Tang Mo stared at the clock and saw that the short hour hand was pointing in front of her and the longer minute hand was pointing at Black Tu Zi.

It's exactly 6 o'clock.

At that moment, a loud bell rang out.

Knock, knock, knock ...... Knock!

As if someone was ringing a bell or drum, a total of six loud bells echoed in the dark space. When this bell sound stopped, Black Tu Zi once again laughed madly. In the midst of its horrifying and bizarre laughter, a mechanical voice without undulation sounded. This voice was cold and emotionless, without a single fluctuation from beginning to end. It was as if it was a male voice, and as if it was a female voice, encompassing all voices.

"Truth Clock game on."

"Please invite the 0-point player into the game."

Tang Mo looked carefully at the clock at his feet. The clock emitted a faint glow and did not change in any way. He was wondering when he heard Black Tu Zi laugh loudly, "He! It's a human player!"

Tang Mo bristled as she raised her head, only to see Black Tu Zi staring viciously at herself. Realizing that Tang Mo was staring at it, Black Tu Zi cracked the corners of its mouth, revealing an impish smile.

"Truth is correct, point 0 player successfully entered the game."

"Will the 6:00 player please enter the game."

Tang Mo gripped the small Yang San tightly and stared at the clock warily. The clock quietly flickered with blue light, and there didn't seem to be any change. When Black Tu Zi saw Tang Mo's cautious look, the greed in his eyes became more and more obvious. Tang Mo was silent and didn't say anything, and immediately after that he heard the voice sounding again -

"Ask the 6-point player to enter the game. If you do not enter the game within one minute, the 6-point player violates the Law of Truth and becomes a fallacy. The truth clock erases the fallacy."

Tang Mo's eyes narrowed.

Black Tu Zi gave a hefty laugh.

Tang Mo's fingers holding the small Yang San gradually tightened. Just in the last ten seconds, he raised his head, coldly stared at Black Tu Zi, and opened his mouth, "...... It, is a Black Tower BOSS."

Black Tu Zi first froze, then suddenly laughed out loud. Tang Mo felt bad, and his icy voice sounded again.

"Truth Error, Fallacy! Fallacy!"

"Level 3 Gray Fallacy, 6:00 player opens Schrödinger's box and accepts the penalty."

The next moment, Tang Mo falls into the water.

The invisible cage he was in was suddenly filled with water. Tang Mo's entire body floated in the air, and the suddenness of the incident caused him to choke on several mouthfuls of water into his lungs at first. When he reacts, he quickly holds his breath. Tang Mo's eyes widened as he stared across the water-filled cage at Black Tu Zi, who was so happy to see him being punished that he kept jumping, shaking the ground and adding to Tang Mo's torment.

After about ten minutes, and with Tang Mo now at his physical limit, the cage full of water was as treacherous as it came and disappeared in an instant.

Tang Mo braced himself on the ground with one hand and coughed violently. He breathed as hard as he could, his hair and clothes wet with water.

Black Tu Zi looked at his wretched appearance and laughed mockingly, "You're wondering why the conclusion that 'I am the Black Tower BOSS' is a fallacy? Hahaha, stupid human, because when I walked onto the Truth Clock and started the Truth Game, I became a participant in this game. On the Truth Clock, there is no Black Tower BOSS, this clock is the real BOSS."

"Will the 6:00 player please enter the game."

Tang Mo climbed up from the ground as he wiped the water from his forehead. He stared at Black Tu Zi, who had a grim smile on his face in front of him, and said word for word, "I am a human player."

"Truth is correct, 6:00 player successfully entered the game."

Black Tu Zi was happily waiting for Tang Mo to be punished once more when it froze violently upon hearing these words. Black Tu Zi gritted its teeth and slammed into the wall angrily. Tang Mo expressionlessly wrung out his soaked clothes. At that moment, a clear child's voice suddenly rang in his ears. Tang Mo's movements paused, and then he continued to wring out his clothes calmly.

"Dingdong! Triggered main quest: Mr. Tu Zi's Truth Clock Game."

"Rules of the game--"

"First, truth is not an unchanging law in the universe. Recognized by the Black Tower, it is truth."

"Second, there is only one winner allowed on the truth clock."

"Third, the truth clock recognizes all truths and rejects all fallacies."

"Fourth, the clock is divided into a total of 60 compartments, and every ten minutes a variable number of items, from 2 to 58, will appear on the truth clock. Separate truths necessarily exist between every two items. Of all the items on the Truth Clock, the truths that are limited to the only truth shared between the two are the separate truths."

"Fifth, identifying separate truths and successfully eliminating them advances one square."

"Sixth, to find a fallacy or not find a separate truth, go back one square. When opening Schrödinger's box, if there are still items on the Truth Clock that have not been eliminated, go backward two spaces."

"Seventh, there are four types of fallacies: level one original fallacies, level two sophomoric fallacies, level three gray fallacies, and level four false truths. Different fallacies trigger different penalties from Schrödinger's box. When the box is opened, the player is judged by the worst fallacy and given a penalty."

"Eighth, successfully eliminate all items on the Truth Clock and conform to the Truth to pass the game."

"Ninth, the player who is caught up first is plunged into an eternal black hole of truth. The surviving player is the sole victor on the Truth Clock and may pass the game. Players who die in Schrödinger's box penalty also pass the game for the survivors."

"Tenth, only four items will appear on the Truth Clock every hour. The truth of the item is a high truth."

"The Truth Clock only recognizes the truly strong. A friendly reminder of the Black Tower, the pass strategy: ...... Be a strong man!"
