There was a creaking sound.
Under Tang Mo's feet,
The short hour hand began to slide slowly to the left. It slid clockwise four times in a row before finally landing on the 24th square. Tang Mo stepped forward.
He walked into the 24th square. On the other side of the truth clock,
The minute hand under the black rabbit's feet slid back. It moved back two squares.
It should have entered the 60th square but the minute hand pointed to it.
The black rabbit didn't move for a long time.
The truth clock's indifferent voice was heard. "Player 0, please enter the correct square."
The black rabbit kicked the ground hard.
It jumped to the 60th square.
The huge Russian black rabbit doll fell to the ground.
The earth trembled slightly. At the end of this round, neither the black rabbit nor Tang Mo were punished. The black rabbit moved back two squares.
It obviously gave up on eliminating items but Tang Mo moved back four squares.
This number wasn't right.
"Last time it was a level five non-universal truth … what is the reason this time?" Tang Mo's calm voice was heard.
The black rabbit raised its head and stared coldly at Tang Mo, not speaking.
Tang Mo's lips curved.
He didn't say anything more.
If someone was observing right now, they would find that the black rabbit seemed to have completely changed.
It was completely different from before. From the moment Tang Mo saw the Russian black rabbit doll,
He had always been a hot-tempered, cruel, and unreasonable person. As soon as it stepped on the truth clock,
It said harsh words.
She threatened to eat Tang Mo and also dipped Tang Mo's eyeballs in sugar.
In the black rabbit's mouth,
It had passed the truth clock,
It had eaten countless humans.
This black rabbit was similar to every black tower monster Tang Mo had ever seen. It was neurotic, sinister and vicious.
It only had one attitude towards humans, which was to 'eat' them. It liked to hum out of tune songs and say creepy things. If there was a difference, it was probably that the black rabbit was a bit more evil on the surface. Whether it was Mario or Pinocchio, they liked to act. It was their greatest pleasure to watch human players being played around by them.
One person and one rabbit quietly looked at each other on the truth clock. After a long time, a hoarse male voice came from the black rabbit's Russian doll. "… When did you discover it?"
"At first."
The black rabbit's eyes widened in astonishment. After a long time, it said, "At the beginning?!"
In the silent dark space, Tang Mo looked at the Russian nesting doll not far away and said lightly, "Before the game started, I grabbed Mr. Rabbit's tail and fell directly from the sky onto the truth clock. I had no choice. I was forced to stand on the clock, locked in its invisible cage, unable to leave. But … "Tang Mo paused and stared at the black rabbit." You walked up by yourself. "
The black rabbit's face was full of surprise. Its eyes turned as it kept thinking. After a minute, it seemed to finally understand where it had gone wrong and laughed bitterly.
Yes, from the beginning, Tang Mo had been wondering what the purpose of this black rabbit was.
The black rabbit took the initiative to walk onto the truth clock. Before walking on the clock of truth, its body is not limited by the clock of truth and it can move freely (including choosing to walk on the clock of truth). Once it stepped onto the truth clock, it was trapped in this small space that was less than one square metre. It said that it had played the game of truth clock and used this magic clock to eat a lot of humans. It also knew how to start the truth clock and had always shown that it understood the truth clock game very well.
But after walking on this clock, no one could guarantee that they wouldn't die in this game that was completely controlled by the truth clock. Where did the black rabbit get the confidence to think that it could win against Tang Mo, that it wouldn't lose the game and fall into the black hole of truth?
There were two possibilities. The first was that it was so arrogant that it didn't put a human player like Tang Mo in its eyes. But it was more likely that it really had something to rely on.
What made the black rabbit confidently walk onto the truth clock and use its life to play the game with Tang Mo?
In the first half hour, Tang Mo had been thinking about this question. He originally thought that it was some kind of special prop or that the black rabbit was really smart and good at playing this game. It wasn't until a total of 48 items appeared that Tang Mo and the black rabbit tried their best to eliminate them. In the end, Tang Mo moved forward seven squares while the black rabbit moved back 10 squares.
"When there are very few items, you always move more than me and gain the upper hand. However, once there are a lot of items, whether it is the 48 items in the third round or the 28 items in the eighth round, you will move less than me. "Tang Mo's voice was calm." If there are fewer items, you can move more. If there are more items, you will move less. This game is a test of the player's brain power, eyesight, memory … it tests the player's hard strength. The more items there are, the more difficult the game becomes. The difficulty increases exponentially. Through those two rounds of the game, it has been proven that your strength isn't stronger than mine. You are much weaker than me. "
The black rabbit replied, "I just happened to have a few items I haven't seen before."
Tang Mo ignored it. "In particular, the 48 items in the third round. You moved back too many squares. The advantage you accumulated in the two rounds disappeared in that round and you haven't made up for it until now. This shows that you and I are equal in participating in the truth clock game. At the very least, you don't have any props or treasures that can guarantee that you will move forward more than me. Then the question is … why did you walk onto the truth clock and start this game with me? "
This was a game with life as a bet and there was no certainty of winning. Why did the black rabbit boldly walk onto the truth clock?
There was only one possibility.
"You didn't want to come up. You were forced to come up." Tang Mo concluded decisively.
The black rabbit looked at Tang Mo with a complicated and strange expression, its body shaking slightly. After a moment, it started to laugh. A hoarse and unpleasant laugh came from the wooden doll's body. Although it was laughing, it sounded very tired. It no longer looked as violent and angry as before.
The black rabbit thought a lot. From the moment it walked onto the truth clock, it had been thinking about how to act to deceive this player. It really did its best to scare Tang Mo, constantly disguising itself and portraying itself as a brainless and manic stupid rabbit. Even Tang Mo was fooled by it but it still lost.
"I lost to luck." Black Rabbit said, "If I knew all four of the items that appeared in the difficult round of the game of truth, I would have been able to tell you the information and let you answer the four items instead of choosing to answer two of them and giving up on the other two. That way, you wouldn't have received any punishment. The delicious stowaway bun and the other cup were obviously human blood. Just by looking at them, you will know how to eliminate them. It was just the other two, the half-eaten biscuit and the pink sachet. I don't know what these two are and can't give you a hint. Thus, you chose to give up and didn't answer. "
Rule 10 of the game: Every hour, only four items will appear on the truth clock. The truth of the item is a difficult truth.
The first time a difficult truth item appeared, the black rabbit 'inadvertently' revealed the information about the delicious stowaway bun. In that round, Tang Mo moved back three squares while the black rabbit moved back one. According to the number of squares, Tang Mo didn't have a problem. He could understand that he answered the wrong two items and gave up on eliminating the two items, thus moving back three squares.
The problem was that he didn't receive any punishment. The black rabbit's brain worked very quickly and immediately said that it was because it was a 'level five non-universal truth' that Tang Mo could be exempted from punishment. Some players might really believe his words but Tang Mo didn't believe it. In addition …
"The half-eaten biscuit is Grandmother Wolf's favourite brand and the pink sachet is what Grandmother Wolf always put at the head of the bed in Monster Valley. This is the truth between them. " The black rabbit looked at Tang Mo with amazement. Tang Mo smiled. "I eliminated these two items in that round. I gave up on eliminating the steamed bun and blood."
The black rabbit wondered, "You already know what the steamed bun and blood are. Why didn't you eliminate them?"
"You are my enemy. The information that the enemy reveals to you, even if it is correct … will you believe it? "
The black rabbit, "…"
Tang Mo looked at the black rabbit's frustrated expression and pursed his lips.
In fact, there were many things he hadn't said and there was no need to say them. In this game, the black rabbit had already lost its biggest bargaining chip.
The black rabbit and Tang Mo were also two items that could be eliminated.
From the beginning, Tang Mo said that the black rabbit was a black tower boss and the truth clock gave him a negative answer, hinting that the black rabbit wasn't a black tower boss or even a black tower monster. It was a human.
When there were fewer items, the black rabbit had the upper hand. Once there were more items, Tang Mo would gain the advantage. This wasn't because the black rabbit could only eliminate fewer items. It couldn't solve a large number of items. It was because the 'two square advantage' it had disappeared when there were many items.
The black rabbit had a two square advantage. It was because Tang Mo wouldn't eliminate himself and the black rabbit in every round and would retreat two squares in every round. This was difficult for Tang Mo to discover. For example, in the first round of the game, he moved back one square among the six items. At the time, Tang Mo thought that he had answered two items correctly and answered four items incorrectly. In this way, he moved forward one square and moved back two squares. The final result was that he moved back one square. But now that he thought about it, he actually answered four items correctly. He moved forward two squares and moved back one. Because he didn't eliminate himself and the black rabbit, he moved back two squares again. In total, he moved back one square.
For example, only two items appeared in the last round. This was simply tempting Tang Mo to quickly eliminate the items and clear the game. Yet Tang Mo chose to give up. He didn't eliminate any items. Suppose he eagerly eliminated the items and could move forward one square by eliminating them. But because he didn't eliminate himself and the black rabbit, he was forced to move back two squares. The result was that he moved back one square, which could be explained by saying that Tang Mo answered the wrong truth.
Only when he moved back four squares could it be proved that there really were two items that could be eliminated but hadn't been eliminated. These two items were the black rabbit and Tang Mo.
There was a big bug in the rules of the game. If Tang Mo and the black rabbit eliminated all the items on the truth clock at the same time, who would be the winner?
There were three ways to clear the game: catch up with the other party, the other party dying or eliminate all the items.
There could only be one winner on the truth clock. When two players eliminated all the items at the same time, who would be the real winner? The biggest loophole in the rules of the game made Tang Mo more determined to give up on eliminating the two items. There was only one answer that could explain this loophole. The black rabbit's game rules were different from his.
Tang Mo could clear the game by eliminating all the items while the black rabbit couldn't clear the game by eliminating all the items.
Tang Mo gave up on eliminating the two items and determined the black rabbit's real reliance.
Time passed and 10 minutes passed. 14 blue lights flashed in the centre of the truth clock. The black rabbit suddenly realized something when it saw the 14 lights and shouted, "I haven't lost!"
Tang Mo looked up at it.
The black rabbit's eyes became fierce again. There was a flash of joy on its face as it sneered. "Yes, the game has just begun. I haven't lost and you might not necessarily win. As long as I catch up with you, you will lose! Even if you know it, it is just a fair battle. I will definitely win! "
The blue lights gradually dimmed. Tang Mo's lips curved as he watched the black rabbit gnashing its teeth. Before the 14 items were completely revealed, he said calmly, "I have guessed the general truth. There is only one thing I'm not sure about. The black tower can force players to participate in the game. Perhaps it can also force the underground people and black tower monsters to participate in the game it designed. When I entered the game, the black tower said that this was my single player game. So … "
The blue color completely dissipated and the 14 items appeared. The second hand of the truth clock moved again and it made a mechanical sound, reminding the two players to prepare to eliminate the items.
Tang Mo's eyes gradually became cold in the background of the truth clock. He said word by word, "The only thing I'm not sure about is … are you a human player?"
The black rabbit's expression changed and the next second, it laughed wildly. "Stupid human, you actually think I am a human? This is the funniest joke I've heard this year. I will definitely eat you. Hahaha, I will tear you into pieces and eat you all! "
Tang Mo's lips curved. "Oh, you really are a human player."
The black rabbit's laughter stopped and it looked at Tang Mo with disbelief. Tang Mo stopped looking at it and looked down at the 14 items.
The black rabbit roared, "Tang Mo!"
Tang Mo raised an eyebrow and muttered, "You even know my name? Isn't that a little too unfair? "
