Customs Team and Monster Team~

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo had a moment's pause in their footsteps, they looked at each other, and then continued to follow the pygmy subterranean man in the direction of the customs office without moving.

In their minds, the Black Tower's voice continued.

"In this side quest, the five players are divided into three teams - Customs Team, Monster Team 1, and Monster Team 2. Please note--"

"First, players in the same team can see the real appearance of their companions, and players who are not in the same team cannot recognize the identity of the players."

"Secondly, the Customs team's task was to locate the stolen goods being smuggled by the Monster II team and to seize them. The Monster Team 2's task is to protect the items they are trying to smuggle and smuggle them successfully. Monster Team One's mission is to assist the Customs Team, and be good monsters who obey the law."

"Third, in that game, both the Underlanders and the Black Tower Monster are enemies of all five players."

When Tang Mo heard that there were five players, his heart immediately tightened and he subconsciously looked at Fu Wenduo. Fu Wenduo also looked at him with a grim expression.

Besides them, there were surprisingly other players involved in this tower attack game!

Five in all!

In addition to Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo and Chen Shanshan, there are two other players.

And when he heard at the end that the five players were practically enemies of each other, with opposite missions, while the Underground Man and the Black Tower monster were also their enemies, Tang Mo gave a dark cry of dismay. However, before he could react, the very next second after the Black Tower's prompt was finished, he only saw an equally gnome-like customs official crunching his way over from the wooden floor, and shouted to the gnome in front of them, "Report sir, it's not good, there are human players mixing in!"

The gnome was shocked, "What did you say?!"

Tang Mo's fingers tightened, he coldly looked at the back of the midget. The new midget informed the officer of the situation, and the officer's face changed as he said, "Take Mr. A and Mr. B who are slacking off and teach them to work faster", and then turned around and jogged away.

"Yes!"

The second gnome glanced at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo out of the corner of his eye and said in a conspiratorial manner, ''How dare you slack off? So many monsters are coming out today, and those damn human players are mixing in, how dare you guys slack off? Wait, could it be that you guys are the players who got mixed in?"

Tang Mo's eyes narrowed.

Fu Wenduo asked in a low voice, "Are there humans mixed in?"

The dwarf looked them up and down, muttered "Doesn't look like it", and then said as he walked, "That's not true. I just got an order from His Majesty, and a few humans have gotten mixed up in our place. It's rumored that there are some who got mixed up in the monsters and some who got mixed up in our department. Heh, that's just a joke! We customs officers are so tall and powerful, how can those dirty and smelly humans pretend to be? I'm sure I'll recognize them at a glance!"

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo followed behind the dwarf, responding to his comments from time to time.

Three minutes later, the trio walked up to an old, broken-down door. The gnome pushed the door open with force, and a gust of moist vapor greeted them as Tang Mo fixed his eyes on it. Only dozens of long lines appeared in front of them.

No one could have imagined before opening this door that such a small and shabby customs cabin would be so wide when opened. It seemed like a long line for payment in a supermarket, and at the very front of each line was a broken table, in front of which stood an underground human official. Countless monsters lined up in the queue, waiting to have their identities checked and cross the border to go home.

Tang Mo scanned the hundreds of monsters in this group at an extremely fast speed and did not find a single abnormality.

The gnome led them to the two tables labeled 25 and 26 and angrily said, "Get to work!" With that, he turned and left.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo each walk to a table.

The two turned their heads for a few seconds to observe how the underground man next to them worked, then lowering their heads, Tang Mo followed the actions of one of the underground men next to him and gave one of the little monster boys a hard shove, "What are you doing, turn around and check your belongings!"

The little monster boy with the raven's head cried aggressively, "You guys just bully kids!"

Off to the side, Fu Wenduo faces a tall, strong adult monster, a huge black bear that barely manages to walk with its body almost crammed into the room.

The two of them realized that these underground people officials were bullying and fearful of hardness. When they encountered monsters with poor strength, they were rude and violent, and when they encountered monsters with strong strength, they were fawning and careful. Fu Wenduo looked up at the tall black bear monster in front of him, and the other party sent out a hot breath from his nose, nonchalantly spraying it on Fu Wenduo's face.

Fu Wenduo made a fist with his right hand. After half a second, he loosened his fingers and slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, "...... Please come over and inspect the items."

The black bear monster strutted past.

More than two dozen customs tables were crammed into the same room, which was extremely crowded with underground people and monsters, and noisy. Gradually familiarizing themselves with the work to be done, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo quietly leaned in together.

Tang Mo lowered his voice and said, "Besides us and Shanshan, there are two other players. We and Shanshan entered the Tower Attack game as a team. Because the layers of the raid are different, this time, the Black Tower deliberately separated us from her, supposedly to lower the difficulty of her game, but it's impossible for her to be our enemy."

Fu Wenduo handed a pair of smelly shoes to a Black Tower Monster, and without turning around, whispered to Tang Mo, "So those two players are Monster Team 2, and Shanshan is Monster Team 1."

In this side quest, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo's goal was to find the stolen goods, and Monster Team 2's mission was to successfully smuggle the stolen goods. Tang Mo and Chen Shanshan are teammates, so the little girl could never be Monster Team 2, only Monster Team 1.

Tang Mo : "Those two players, they're all from Monster Team 2."

Fu Wenduo nods, "Yes."

So far the customs team is confirmed to be Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, leaving three players. Chen Shanshan is definitely Monster Team 1, and the other two players may both be Team 2, or one of them may be Team 2 and one of them may be teammates with Chen Shanshan and be Team 1. But ......

Fu Wenduo : "Monster Team 2 and us are enemies. The Black Tower is absolutely fair, and it's impossible for a player in China other than Mu Huixue to be recognized by the Black Tower as a 'rival to the two of us alone'." In fact, even Mu Huixue probably wouldn't get such a high rating. Fu Wenduo concluded, "So those two are on a team, and it's likely that they also entered the Tower Attack game as a group."

Tang Mo's fingers tapped lightly on the desktop, "Then the question arises ...... Obviously, we are now customs officers and at an advantage, and those two players are at a disadvantage. Is it their strength that makes the Black Tower recognize that it needs to give us an advantage in order to defeat them. Or is there some change that hasn't happened yet."

Just as Tang Mo's words fell, a rough male voice suddenly rang out.

In the Customs Cabin, all the Grounders officials and the Black Tower monsters looked up in unison at a large green horn in the corner of the ceiling -

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, emergency briefing, emergency briefing!"

"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Monster, and our loyal Earthling officials. By order of His Majesty the King, we have just received the deplorable news that a player has infiltrated our customs!"

The monsters were in an uproar.

"Those damned players, with their stinking smells and ugly looks hidden by the great Black Tower, none of us can find out who they really are. But don't worry, the customs department has gotten accurate information that there are a total of five damnable players who are hiding amongst the customs officials and monsters."

As soon as he said this, Tang Mo clearly noticed the underground man standing on his left, serial number 24, brush his head and look at himself, and then at Fu Wenduo. all the underground officers examined their companions warily. The monsters did the same.

The strong monster rubbed his fists in excitement, "There's actually a player who dares to pretend to be one of our Black Tower monsters?" The monster swallowed greedily, "I'm going to find him and I'm going to eat him!"

On the radio, the gnome official was still broadcasting, "In order to successfully capture those five disgusting players, from now on, the Undertaker Customs Department is blocking the bridge. Hey, don't worry, honorable monsters, it's not that we won't allow you to cross the border and leave, we just won't allow new monsters to set foot on the bridge."

"Bet on the honor of His Honorable Majesty, the customs officials will find those damn players!"

The Earthling officials shouted, "Find the humans and eat them!"

The monsters roared back, "Find them and eat them!"

As the cheers rose and fell, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo's eyelids jumped as a sense of foreboding surged from the bottom of their hearts. Tang Mo turned around to see the midget officer who had just been vocalizing over the radio come out of nowhere and yell at the underground people, "Come here, all of you! Now, I'm going to start looking for the filthy humans hiding among you. Humans, I'm going to give you one more chance, come out now, and hey, I promise I'll just fry you up and eat you, and give you a whole body!"

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo's faces slowly turned cold.

Chen Shanshan stood in the center of the group of monsters, not saying a word as she listened to all of the Black Tower's prompts and the gnome officer's words. Beside her, many monsters were rubbing their fists trying to grab the player and discussing how to eat the player alive.

The little girl cradled the large lollipop in her arms, lowered her head, closed her eyes, and thought.

And at the very back of the line, David and Pitt were a little confused at first. Behind them, two Underground Man officials closed the bridge just as they stood at the very end of the line.

The brown-haired David said in dissatisfaction, "What is the meaning of this, the Black Tower has actually arranged an opponent for us? This tower attack game is actually a confrontation?"

Pitt rolled his turquoise blue eyes as he stroked a string of red onyx he wore on his wrist. Thinking for a moment, Pitt smiled grimly, "My dear David, isn't that nice? Or is it surprising that after turning full player, you've lost the murderous intent of our Returned and are still thinking of peacefully being a good old boy? My friend, I don't want to be that bored with the game. How nice this is, I wonder what kind of player actually dares to become a rival of the two of us. Kill them, this game can be so much fun."

David sarcastically said, "Pitt, this is just a side quest, maybe we'll have to work with those three players during the main quest."

Pitt spreads his hands in disbelief, "As long as we kill them before then, won't there be no cooperation."

Compared to his own teammates, David didn't like killing people that much, but he wouldn't stop it either. David touched his chin: ''I'm just curious, if we and the Customs team players are rivals, what role did the Monster One team ...... play? Since the three teams of players can't recognize each other, why did the Black Tower purposely create a Monster One team, and what can that guy do?"
