Tang Mo's body fell rapidly. The surroundings were dark and he seemed to be falling along a hole, his body slamming into the wall of the hole. With Tang Mo's current physical fitness, he didn't feel any pain hitting the mud wall. It was just that the feeling of falling made him unable to control it.
It could have been a minute, or it could have been an hour.
Bang!
Tang Mo finally landed on flat ground.
The surroundings were dark and he couldn't see his fingers. Tang Mo touched the ground under his feet. The moist soil told him that he was probably standing on land at the moment. He first listened carefully to the movements around him. After determining that there was no sound, he started to feel around with his hands, cautiously exploring the nearby environment.
Tang Mo touched for three minutes and didn't feel anything.
Suddenly, there was a familiar collision sound above his head. Tang Mo immediately retracted his hand and vigilantly paid attention to the movements above. Half a minute later, a huge object slammed into the ground, accompanied by a loud and painful male voice. "Ouch, it hurts. Where is this?"
Tang Mo's heart moved and he whispered, "Li Wen?"
The male voice stopped for a moment. "Tang Mo?"
Tang Mo's heart settled a little but he didn't wait for him to speak again when there was another banging sound and a person fell again. Following that, four more people arrived. One by one, they smashed into the ground, cursing and shouting.
Tang Mo counted. Including himself, there were a total of seven people.
A dazzling light suddenly shone, illuminating this pitch-black place. Everyone turned to look at the source of the light. They saw a little girl who looked like a middle school student looking at them timidly. Her face was pale and her body was thin. She held a flashlight in her hand and said shakily, "I … I brought a flashlight, but it was too dark here, so I turned it on."
A man in a suit who looked like an elite nodded and walked over. "Can you lend me your flashlight? I'll take a look around and determine where we are."
The little girl handed over the flashlight.
The man looked around with the flashlight.
Tang Mo looked carefully in the direction of the flashlight. Soon, the man walked through the cave. He returned to his original position and forcefully stuck the flashlight up into the soil. The beam of light shone straight up. This way, they could light up the cave as much as possible, and also let the seven of them see each other's faces.
The man sat down around the flashlight and said, "First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Li Bin, 29 years old, and I work in a public relations company. No one knows the current situation but I guess it is related to the black tower. The only thing we can do is unite and use the power of the group to protect each of us before the black tower creates an unknown event. "
The little girl had communicated with Li Bin earlier. She seemed to trust this man a little, so she was the second to sit down. Her voice trembled as she said, "My name is Peng Yuwen. I'm fifteen years old. I'm in the second year of junior high at Twelfth High. You guys … you guys can call me Wenwen. "
The others looked at each other, but no one sat down first.
Tang Mo walked over and Li Bin and Peng Yuwen both looked at him.
He smiled. "Tang Mo, 23 years old, librarian."
Li Wen didn't understand why Tang Mo suddenly believed in these two people. But when he saw Tang Mo go over, he also ran over. "Li Wen, 25 years old. I am now an unemployed vagrant."
Of the seven people, four people chose to stick together. The other three gritted their teeth and ran over.
"Lin Qiao, 20 years old, going to college."
"Zhao Xiang, 32 years old. Before the tower appeared, I was a chef. After that thing came out, my boss ran away in fear. I am now an unemployed vagrant. "
Finally, there was a man with glasses. He slowly sat down and glanced at everyone, especially at Li Bin and Tang Mo. Then he said, "Luo Fengcheng, 28 years old, game designer."
Thus, the seven people knew each other.
The combination of five men and two women made the two girls unable to help hugging each other. Lin Qiao sat next to Peng Yuwen and the two of them soon became familiar with each other. The two of them whispered to each other.
Li Wen moved to Tang Mo's side. "Tang Mo, do you know what is going on?"
Tang Mo shook his head. "It should be related to the black tower."
"Black tower?" Li Wen shivered. "What the hell is this place? We're not locked up, are we?"
"This should be a hole." A calm voice was heard and everyone looked at each other. Luo Fengcheng pushed his glasses and said indifferently, "The soil moisture increases with the distance from the ground. The closer to the groundwater, the wetter the soil will be. At present, the soil water potential of the soil under our feet is about 3 bar. The groundwater can't cause such a large soil water potential. If we are still in Shanghai, we must be near a water source. This is an underground cave near a water source. "
Li Bin looked at him strangely. "Are you a game designer?"
Luo Fengcheng replied, "My university major is in water conservancy."
However, the doubts in the eyes of the others didn't disappear. Tang Mo also looked curiously at this person.
It was confirmed that this was a hole in the ground and it was in line with everyone's understanding.
"The seven holes above us are probably where the seven of us fell," said Gao Peng with a smile. Li Bin pointed to the seven dark holes with a dignified expression. "I think you should've heard the black tower's words before you fell."
Lin Qiao nodded and repeated, "China District 1's stowaway, Fu Wenduo, has successfully opened the black tower's first floor. After three minutes, all players in China will start to attack the tower."
Among the seven people, the little girl Peng Yuwen didn't speak much. The cook Zhao Xiang just listened and sometimes struggled to get everyone to explain to him. Luo Fengcheng was silent after saying that. He seemed to feel that he had said too much.
Li Bin took on the role of a guide among the seven people. "There are many things I don't understand in this sentence. I won't say it for now. However, do you remember the three iron-clad laws of the black tower? Yesterday morning, it issued the three iron-clad laws. The last one is for us to try to attack the tower. Are we attacking the tower now? "
Li Wen asked curiously, "Then how do we attack the tower?"
"I don't know."
Tang Mo asked, "There might be some hints? Why don't we look in this hole again? "
Li Bin shook his head. "I have just turned this hole over and didn't find anything."
At this time, a clear child's voice was heard in the cave.
"Ding dong! The black tower's first floor (mentally retarded mode) has opened. The seven-person survival game has begun to load … "
"Sandbox generated …"
"Game data loading …"
"Main mission released: The seven people chosen by God, please work hard to survive!"
The cave was silent.
No one knew how long it took before Li Wen asked nervously, "Game? That was the voice of the black tower. I remember it! What does it mean by a game? What is a seven-person survival game … "
Tang Mo glanced at him and confirmed that Li Wen really hadn't played a black tower game before.
Chef Zhao Xiang deliberately raised his voice to cover up his nervousness. "We should be escaping from here. Then let's hurry up and go."
Li Bin calmly said, "Don't worry. Since the black tower wants to release a game for us, it's certainly impossible for us to simply dig a hole to leave. Perhaps there is a trap." A closer look revealed that Li Bin's lips were trembling. He tried to show a calm appearance. "We should first determine our situation and then think about what to do next …"
"Shh!"
"Don't make a sound!"
Tang Mo and Luo Fengcheng spoke at the same time.
The two of them glanced at each other and Tang Mo frowned. "Do you hear anything?"
The others held their breaths and listened carefully.
Suddenly, the female college student Lin Qiao's eyes widened and she screamed. She immediately covered her mouth and whispered, "I heard it, I heard it. It is the sound of digging, it is the sound of digging! I like to play survival games and this is the special sound when digging. There is something digging! "
Li Bin suddenly stood up. "It is in this direction."
Everyone stood up and looked at a soil wall.
Chef Zhao Xiang's face turned red and he clenched his fists. "Damn, who cares what it is. I will punch it to death."
Everyone's hair stood up as they looked in the direction of the digging sound with fear. The sound was getting closer and closer. Tang Mo could almost hear his own heartbeat. The sound of digging never stopped. Step by step, he came to the side of the cave.
Bang!
The last thin layer of soil was dug up.
A blood-red light shone from the pitch-black hole. A pair of small eyes swept across the seven of them. It stretched out its huge claws and pushed the pile of soil in front of it away. The whole person … the whole rat crawled out of the hole and entered the huge underground nest.
Boom!
This was a huge mole. It was more than two metres tall and its huge body was like a giant beast. Once it stood up, the entire sky seemed to be pressed down by it. It threw a turkey that was half the size of a human to the ground and stared at the seven people with its tiny eyes. Its sharp, knife-like teeth were grinding, making a harsh sound.
The mole drooled and gave a strange laugh. Then it said, "How is the black tower so good today? I was just about to eat turkey and it sent me fuel. Seven humans can roast this turkey and sprinkle it with delicious cumin … oh, thank you, black tower. Happy Thanksgiving! "
The chef, who had just said that he was going to kill the other person, took three steps back when he saw the terrifying rat. The next moment, he suddenly turned and fled.
Tang Mo hurriedly said, "Don't move!"
But it was too late. The next moment when the chef turned to escape, the huge mole was like a flash of lightning. It quickly rushed over and pasted its claws on the chef's body, hammering him into the wall.
The chef fell to the ground, coughing up blood and unable to move.
The mole's small eyes stared at the other six people before finally falling on the short and thin 15-year-old girl, Peng Yuwen. "This fuel is the thinnest. I will use you as the center of the fire. The fattest one will be left to the end and the turkey will be roasted with a big fire. I didn't tell anyone this secret. This kind of turkey is the most delicious. "
"Ah!" Peng Yuwen turned pale with fright and ran back. The mole flew in front of her and grabbed her head. Peng Yuwen screamed in pain. Li Bin gritted his teeth, grabbed the little girl's right foot, and roared, "We can't let it take this little girl away. If she's taken away, we'll be next!"
Tang Mo wasn't cold-blooded enough to watch an underage girl being taken away in front of him and remain indifferent. He grabbed the little girl's other foot while Li Wen trembled as she grabbed the little girl's leg. The female college student, Lin Qiao, also summoned her courage and grabbed the little girl's other leg.
Luo Fengcheng directly stepped on the mole's foot. His angle was very tricky and he stepped on the last nail of the mole's little toe. He used all his strength and the mole let out a painful roar. However, the nails were as hard as iron and there was no blood at all. The mole just let go of the little girl's head and everyone pulled the little girl back.
The huge mole, more than two metres tall, roared, "I will now use all of you as fuel to roast my turkey!"
"Ding dong! Branch mission triggered: Roast a turkey for the cute Uncle Mole. "
The voice rang in the ears of the seven people.
Was this a cute mole?!
Everyone wanted to tear the black tower to pieces.
Tang Mo vaguely felt that this sentence seemed a bit familiar but the current situation didn't give him time to think. The mole waved its giant claws and slapped Li Bin away. The female college student and the little girl saw the situation and ran away in fright. Tang Mo hurriedly said, "Don't run! We must stick together. We will only be caught by it if we separate! "
The little girl ran away. After all, she was young and it was understandable that she ran away in fright.
The female college student gathered her courage and ran back.
"Catch!" Luo Fengcheng pulled off two legs of the turkey and threw one to Tang Mo. Unexpectedly, he didn't control his strength and it smashed at the feet of the female college student.
This was a huge mole and the turkey was also a huge turkey. Its chicken leg was like a bat. It was hard and could be used as a weapon. Luo Fengcheng held one leg while the female college student hesitated for a moment before picking up the other leg. The two of them rushed towards the mole.
The mole was waving its claws at Li Bin when it suddenly heard a sound. It stopped and turned to look.
Li Bin coughed up blood and grabbed one of the mole's legs with trembling arms. "Hurry up!"
Luo Fengcheng and the female college student rushed from the left and right sides at the same time, waving the chicken leg and smashing it at the mole. The mole was held tightly by Li Bin and couldn't escape at all. The two steel-like turkey legs smashed straight down. At this moment, the mole raised its claws and blocked the sides of its head.
The turkey leg hit the claws and metal sparks flew.
The mole slowly moved his claws, grinding his sharp long teeth. "Burn you, burn you all, roast turkey!"
Li Bin lay on the ground in despair, still trying to hold the mole's leg. Suddenly, his eyes widened and hope reignited in them. He saw Tang Mo rush from the rear and recklessly rush towards the mole.
However, he didn't even have a turkey leg in his hand!
A basin of cold water was poured over his head and his hope was extinguished. Li Bin shouted, "Don't die!"
In the blink of an eye, a huge match appeared in Tang Mo's hand. No one knew when it appeared. The cook had fallen to the ground in the distance and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive. The little girl had long run away and no one knew where she was. Li Bin, Luo Fengcheng and the female college student all looked at the big match with amazement.
The giant match smashed down, the sound of the wind hinting at how violent this match was.
They looked excitedly at Tang Mo and the match in his hand, seeing that the match was about to hit the mole's head.
Suddenly!
The mole stretched out its claws and caught the match.
It wasn't just them. Tang Mo's heart suddenly fell into an ice cellar. The momentum of the match caused the mole to take two steps back but in any case, it still didn't hurt the mole. It held the match and looked down at Tang Mo.
Tang Mo's lips tightened as his brain quickly thought about whether his damn ability had any other effects.
Unexpectedly, the mole didn't attack again. It turned its head, its left paw holding the match while its right paw held its big face. It made a cute gesture that many pet dogs would do. "Hey, how do you have Mosaic's match?" The bright red nose moved twice in the air. The mole sniffed and opened his eyes again. He said strangely, "Ah, you have the smell of mosaic on your body. It's a very disgusting smell!"
