The dark-haired youth pulled down on the man's neck and planted a light kiss on his lips.

"Depending on the level of completion of the side quests, my main quests are actually different." Chen Shanshan said, "I don't know if Brother Tang Mo, Major Fu your game will be affected by the previous side quests.When Major Fu pushed me to the shore and I saw you guys disappearing, I immediately found a place to hide."

Chen Shanshan would not be so arrogant as to think that he could save Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo.

With her strength, her best option is to find a place to hide and wait for Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo to come out from the River of Fantasy. However, when Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo encountered River God in the River of Fantasy, Chen Shanshan also received her main quest---

"Become a River God , and help players win without revealing themselves."

Yes, Chen Shanshan wants to assist not Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo, but all players.

Chen Shanshan can see everything that happens on the River of Illusion, but she gets the same information as Tang Mo. At first she doesn't realize that everything on the River of Illusion is based on the principle of "what you think is what you get". She can't reveal her identity, and whoever Tang Mo guesses who she is will fail her mission immediately.

This quest looks a bit difficult, Chen Shanshan is only a 3rd level Black Tower player, Tang Mo is a 5th level Black Tower player. The chances of being discovered by these four were extremely high. However, it was a very simple game for Chen Shanshan.

Chen Shanshan speculated, "Because my side quests were completed to a high degree, that's why there was such an easy main quest. But my mission is not only not to be discovered by you, but also for you to pass the game. So I could only hint at you guys as much as I could without violating the rules of the Black Tower game. So when that blonde-haired foreigner made a request to know how to kill Tang and Major Fu, I knew the opportunity had come. The existence of Huo Ji's egg, could very well lead you to discover an anomaly on the River of Fantasy."

Thinking back, Tang Mo also found a hint of wrong. He fixedly looked at the little girl, said, "After David made the request, you deliberately ...... dragged it for a long time before you pulled that thread to his arm."

Chen Shanshan was silent for a moment, "Yes."

Tang Mo sighed softly.

What Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo could guess, so could Chen Shanshan.

The two visions make the two Tang Mo's doubt the truth of the river of illusions. Tang Mo intentionally says "the thread should be like a seven-colored lace" after David asks "to put a thread between himself and Chen Shanshan"; she also says "the thread should be like a seven-colored lace". The thread should look like a seven-colored lace border." He said this in order to make David fantasize and to verify the reasoning of "what you think is what you get". However, if River God had helped David and Chen Shanshan immediately after David's request, Tang Mo would not have had the chance to scheme against David.

Chen Shanshan knew that Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo would be sure to get their hands on the last request, so she gave as much time as she could to give Tang Mo a chance to commit the act of baiting David.

Tang Mo saw the onyx bracelet on Pitt's wrist, and Chen Shanshan must have seen it too.

However, the little girl pretended as if she didn't see anything, and if it wasn't for Fu Wenduo's sharp mind and noticing that something was wrong, it was possible that Chen Shanshan would have really hidden her emotions forever.

People can't come back from the dead, in fact, all of them have long been mentally prepared for this.

Fu Wen has gone to look for his parents, but he hasn't found them. Before Jacks returned to Shanghai, Tang Mo had asked him to help him to go to a certain neighborhood in Pudong New Area to take a look, and maybe he could find a trace of Fatty. But he knew in his heart that the possibility of Fatty surviving was too low.

On the day the Earth came online, there were a total of six billion six hundred and sixty million humans who disappeared, but only three hundred and fifty thousand returnees.

One chance in 18,000, and the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. He'd never gotten his hopes up.

Chen Shanshan would not cry even at such a time, she nodded her head towards Tang Mo, signaling that she was fine. Tang Mo's lips opened, but she didn't know what to say. At this moment, a hand reached out and gently touched Chen Shanshan's hair. The little girl froze abruptly and slowly looked up at the other side.

"...... Major Fu."

Fu Wenduo looked calm and spoke in a calm tone, "Although you can't take part in the Raid Six mode, it seems that the Black Tower is currently placing great importance on the game guideline of 'Strive to Attack the Tower'. Find some time to raid the fourth floor of the Black Tower together with Little Voice. It won't be too difficult for you to team up together, and your survival rate will be higher."

Chen Shanshan's eyes widened slightly, and soon she nodded vigorously, "Good."

There is no time to grieve or allow yourself to wallow in painful emotions.

Fu Wenduo did not comfort her, but in the most normal tone of voice, he told Chen Shanshan to stop focusing on the past and to look to the future. Chen Shanshan did not find the other party unsympathetic, and her reasoning did not allow her to dwell on those who had already left. The moment the two foreigners were killed, she let them go.

The four of them quickly agreed, and half an hour later, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo set off to the bottom of the Black Tower, directly attacking the sixth floor of the Black Tower. On the other hand, Chen Shanshan and Fu Wen Sheng rested for two days and found time to start the tower attack game.

Chen Shanshan calmly analyzed, "If we're going to raid the fourth floor of the Black Tower, Chosen Li Miaomiao is actually a very good teammate. Brother Tang, Major Fu, Little Voice and I don't have a high force value. Li Miaomiao is also currently at the third level of the Black Tower, so teaming up with her to attack the tower is our best option."

Tang Mo nodded.

Without delay, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo leave the two little ones in the hands of Chosen and set off for the Forbidden City.

As the sky darkened, a thick black cloud drifted in from the sky, dimming what should have been a brightly lit sky. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo roamed the streets at breakneck speeds, both occasionally clinging to walls and stopping in their tracks. There were players quickly crossing the path in front of them, traveling in a hurry, similarly avoiding the other players around them.

The closer we get to the Black Tower, the more people appear.

Two faint footsteps appear not far away, and Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo duck into a dark alley. Tang Mo's back was pressed against the damp wall, and he peeked out, his eyes narrowed. Only to see a man and a woman with weapons in their hands, passing by the entrance of Beihai Park, turning a corner and taking another road to Jin.

Tang Mo whispered, "It's been a long time since I've seen so many people in Beijing."

Fu Wenduo: "After the Returners appeared, most of the Earth survivors have become more careful, rarely going out, and even less likely to gather around the Black Tower. But tomorrow is June 10th," after a pause, Fu Wenduo looked at Tang Mo : "If no one passes the fifth floor of the Black Tower today, tomorrow morning at 6:00am, the Black Tower will force all players to attack the tower."

Tang Mo raises an eyebrow, "Instead of being forced to attack the tower, why don't we find a copy and go in for temporary refuge?"

Fu Wenduo curled his lips, "The hardest game is always the tower attack game."

Tang Mo also laughed.

Before leaving Shanghai, Tang Mo had a discussion with Luo Fengcheng, and the two of them roughly categorized the Black Tower games into three types.

The first, is the Tower Attack game. This is the mode that the Black Tower promotes the most, in the form of the three iron laws that the Black Tower has told players around the world over and over again to make sure to follow.

The second type, is replica games. These games are divided into three categories: ordinary copies, other copies and real copies. Ordinary copies are like the "Kill Bill" game played by Tang Mo, other copies are like "Mario's Monopoly", and real copies are like the "Iron Shoemaker" game. The common point of these three copies is that they can be triggered at any time, such as by stepping into an area, or by fulfilling a certain condition, to enter the game.

The third type, is the rally copy. A time and place is set by the Black Tower, and players are sure to enter the game by traveling to a certain location at that time.

This is the information that Luo Feng Cheng got.

Half a year had passed, and Tang Mo had also discovered another piece of information: the Black Tower's copy game was centered on the Black Tower at the very center of each city, presenting a star-shaped diagram that radiated outwards. The closer you are to the Black Tower, the more places you can trigger the duplicate game. Like the stars surrounding the moon, the place closest to the "moon" has a higher chance of triggering a copy.

One after another, players left from the vicinity of the Black Tower.

Tang Mo caught a glimpse of the clock tower not far away, the time pointing to 5:35.

With twenty-five minutes to go, they could challenge the sixth floor of the Black Tower as long as they walked underneath it before six o'clock and started the Tower Attack game.

The two were in no hurry, as there were still players cautiously making their way out of the vicinity of the Black Tower.

In the damp, dimly lit alley, Tang Mo suddenly said, "I didn't realize you could comfort people."

Fu Wenduo looked slightly sideways at the youth beside him. He raised his brow bone, "Comforting?"

Tang Mo: "Just comforting Shanshan?"

Fu Wenduo pondered seriously for a moment, "Is that comforting."

Of course it counts.

Tang Mo replied mentally.

Fu Wenduo also raised his eyes and glanced at the time on the clock tower, "She doesn't need comforting."

Chen Shanshan really doesn't need comforting, she's young but knows what she's doing and what she needs to do. However, Tang Mo had never been very good at getting along with people, and had only had two close friends since she was a child. He couldn't think of anything to say to comfort the little girl, but he didn't realize that Fu Wenduo had grown up with a cold look, but he could speak comforting words straight out of his mouth.

As if hearing Tang Mo's thoughts, Fu Wenduo said, "When I was in the army, death was very common. On missions, in training, accidents could happen. There were psychologists accompanying the troops, but many people still developed post-war trauma and were discharged early." After a pause, Fu Wenduo said, "I had a few very good soldiers who couldn't withstand the shock of their teammates dying in front of their eyes and were discharged."

Tang Mo is silent for a moment, "What about you?"

"Playing games to vent?"

Tang Mo froze and looked up at the other man.

Fu Wenduo's dark eyes gazed upon him, the corners of his mouth lifting, "Playing bridge, it's a great way to let off steam."

Tang Mo couldn't help but laugh, "Knocking your opponent off his feet?"

"Not enough venting?"

Tang Mo had nothing to say. It was indeed kinda cool, otherwise he wouldn't have played the game for so long.

Fu Wenduo puts one hand in his pocket, hooks his finger, and takes out a silver pistol. Tang Mo threw the pistol to Fu Wenduo when they fought with David and Pitt, and now Fu Wenduo takes it out of his pocket and throws it to Tang Mo. Tang Mo lifts his hand to catch the pistol, and puts it into his pocket with a smooth movement.

Time passed as the two men readied the weapons they had with them.

At 5:55, Tang Mo lowers his voice: "Go?"

"Good."

The moment before he was about to go out from the alley, a hand pulled Tang Mo's wrist from behind. Tang Mo froze slightly and turned her head to look at Fu Wenduo.

"It's a bit too late to take my powers when I come out of the sixth floor ......?"

His eyes snapped open, and Tang Mo looked at Fu Wenduo in dismay.

The two look at each other in silence for a long moment before Tang Mo turns her head to look at the clock tower behind her.

With three minutes left, it would only take them a minute to run under the Black Tower.

Tang Mo turned back and gave a soft smile, "Good."

The next second, in the dark alley, the dark-haired youth pulled down the man's neck and planted a shallow kiss on his lips.

Releasing the other man, Tang Mo frowns, "Sure enough, this won't replicate your powers for a while."

"......"

Fu Wenduo had a momentary freeze, a rare look of shock on his face, and when he heard Tang Mo's words, he looked at the youth in front of him, his lips slightly warm. The emotions in his heart were strange, there was helplessness, and a bit unable to hold back the desire to laugh, from the bottom of his heart. But time was really running out, and he couldn't say anything.

Tang Mo took his wrist and pulled him out of the alley, "It's too late, let's go."

Fu Wenduo fixedly looked at the youth's back, and after a long time, a low laugh came from his throat, "...... Good."

The two silhouettes ran to the bottom of the black tower at an extremely fast speed.

With not much time left, Tang Mo directly said in his mind, "Choose to open the sixth floor of the Black Tower and team up with player Fu Wenduo."

Not far away, on the clock tower, the time pointed to 5:58.

The two of them waited quietly for the tower attack game to begin, who would have expected that after a few seconds, a clear child's voice would ring in their ears at the same time -

"Dingdong! Data anomaly, player application for tower attack failed."

Tang Mo brushes his head to look at Fu Wenduo, who is also looking at him.

Both in unison: "......"

God damn tower attack failure, said the black tower favorite player attack tower!
