What was the meaning of the monster team's existence?
Chen Shanshan was holding a huge lollipop.
She repeatedly thought about this question in her mind.
Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo guessed it.
Chen Shanshan also guessed it.
"There are five players in this game.
There are two people in the customs team.
There are two people in the monster team.
I'm in the monster team. "
"The monster team's side mission is to assist the customs team.
Find the stolen goods. "The short-haired girl sighed softly.
She thought in her heart, "Brother Tang and Major Fu are in the customs team.
Those two players are in the monster team. Players from different teams can't recognize each other. Then what is my role … "
Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo were the customs team.
They had the best way to find the stolen goods. As for her, she was an inconspicuous little monster.
It was already good that she wasn't bullied by other monsters. In this group of monsters,
She didn't seem to play any role.
However, the task given to her by the black tower was to assist the customs team.
"I'm attacking the third floor while Brother Tang and the others are attacking the fifth floor. The difficulty of my game is much lower than theirs but it also means that the black tower has lowered the threshold for me. There are more things I can do. "
Chen Shanshan lowered her head.
Her brain worked quickly.
Every piece of information that the black tower had just said echoed in her mind, as well as the words of the underground chief on the radio. The little girl repeated the words' customs', 'monster', 'stolen goods' and so on. When a few underground officials came out of the hut and shouted for the monsters outside to squeeze in together.
Chen Shanshan suddenly raised her head with surprise.
"It's like this?"
On the long suspension bridge, two underground officials were holding black batons.
They shouted angrily, "Go in.
The chief is going to check the damn human players mixed in with you. "
An underground person pushed Chen Shanshan to the door. When they met a strong monster, they changed their expressions. "Sir, please come in."
Chen Shanshan understood that her current appearance must be that of a weak little monster.
A strong appearance would bring some convenience and a weak appearance wasn't necessarily useless.
Before entering the cabin, Chen Shanshan's eyes swept over all the monsters behind her. She raised her foot and stepped into the customs cabin. At the same time, her eyes stopped for a second on a sheepskin notice next to the door.
Bounty:
All monsters could report stowaways, and if they found any stowaways, they would be rewarded according to the amount of money they had smuggled.
The highest reward was one King's Gold Coin!
The Highly Respected Customs Officer, the Dwarf Muddlehead
Customs wooden hut.
The monsters were brought into the wooden house one by one while the underground officials were called to a transparent house on the side.
Tang Mo stood on the edge of the officials and looked at the dwarf chief. The officer stared at them with a sneer, his hands behind his back. After patrolling his subordinates, he said loudly, "Now, in this room, a damned human has sneaked into it! Perhaps there's only one human, or perhaps there are five! "
"None of you can be trusted, because all of you might be humans! At present, only I'm sure I'm not a human. " After the commander reprimanded him, he said to the lackey dwarf beside him, "You, go and tell those monsters that we will be searching them in five minutes. Get them to hand over all their belongings and get their number tags. After we search them, we will retrieve their things according to the number tag. "
The dwarf hurriedly said, "Yes!"
The dwarf chief muttered, "Oh, those stupid and smelly monsters. I don't know how many idiots want to smuggle things today. Don't get caught by me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he signaled his assistant with his eyes. The other person nodded and walked proudly, holding a thick roll of papers in his hand. "Now I will distribute this year's civil servant test papers of the Underground Kingdom. Humans can't do it but you can. My colleagues, catch the humans and eat them! "
"Catch the humans and eat them!"
Tang Mo watched as the underground people started to distribute the test papers one by one. His hand quietly touched his waist.
Tang Mo had long discovered that the underground people couldn't see the small parasol tied to his waist. This meant that the underground people really couldn't recognize humans based on appearance alone. But if they really did this test paper, it might be difficult for them to hide their identity. Perhaps they would be the first players to be caught.
A low male voice was suddenly heard in Tang Mo's ears. "He just said that there are many monsters smuggling things every day."
Tang Mo was stunned and turned to look at Fu Wenduo. He quickly understood the other person's meaning. "Yes, according to common sense, this customs department receives so many monsters every day. Stowaways should be very common."
Fu Wenduo said, "Things that can be smuggled must be very valuable. Once there is a proper profit, the capitalist will be bold. For a profit of fifty per cent, he would take a risk; for a profit of a hundred per cent, he would defy all human laws; for a profit of three hundred per cent, he would commit any crime, even at the risk of being hanged. "After a pause, he added," Marx's Das Kapital. "
Tang Mo asked, "Are you familiar with it?" He knew the general meaning of this sentence but he wasn't as skilled as Fu Wenduo.
Fu Wenduo replied, "I am a party member."
Tang Mo was silent. Given Fu Wenduo's identity, he must have learned this kind of thing when he was able to read.
Fu Wenduo said, "We all know the production level of the Underground Kingdom. It is biased towards medieval Europe and the level is very low. There aren't many valuable things that can be smuggled in this place. "
Tang Mo said, "There aren't many valuable things and there aren't many black tower monsters that can be resold."
Fu Wenduo looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "If there are 10 monsters smuggling every day, the things they smuggle might be similar or even exactly the same."
Tang Mo said, "The black tower wants us to find the stolen goods and let the second monster team protect the stolen goods. This means that the stolen goods are in their hands and can only be in their hands. "
Fu Wenduo asked, "What if other monsters also have the same stolen goods?"
"Impossible."
The two of them looked at each other, their lips curved as they said in unison, "The stolen goods that the black tower is looking for are absolutely unique!"
Outside the transparent hut, Chen Shanshan looked at the more than 20 underground officials in the house. She carefully observed everyone's clothes, appearance and even the small ornaments on their chests. She didn't find Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo.
At this time, a gnome underground person raised his chin, walked into the house, and repeated the words of the gnome chief to the monsters, "… Now, all monsters, please hand over your belongings. Please rest assured that after we search you, we will return the things to you according to the order of the number plates. "
The monsters immediately complained with dissatisfaction. The dwarf trembled and became courageous again. "What … what are you doing? This is the order of the confused chief. If you have the ability, you can appeal to him. Besides, if we find humans, we can all eat them. This is for the good of everyone! "
Most of the monsters were simple-minded. They felt that this matter was troublesome but they could only endure it in order to find humans.
Chen Shanshan heard a monster next to her complain, "If it isn't your territory, eating humans is nothing. The underground people are also delicious!"
The dwarf official started from the front row and collected the monsters' belongings.
Chen Shanshan held the lollipop and watched his actions calmly. After a moment, she said in a weak voice, "If he collects it alone, I'm afraid it will take a long time."
The underground people were locked in the transparent hut and only this dwarf came out. There were more than 500 monsters in the room. It was too laborious for him to collect things and hand out the number plates alone. It would take at least three hours.
A monster with a fox head heard Chen Shanshan's words and his eyes turned. "Yes, it is a waste of our time. This damn bureaucracy, that's why I hate the underground people so much! "
Chen Shanshan licked her lollipop. "Can't we help collect it?"
The fox's eyes narrowed and he stared at Chen Shanshan. "What?"
In the eyes of the fox, he saw a little monster with a rabbit's head licking the lollipop while blinking at him. "I think you are also a monster from the Spirit Prairie."
The fox nodded. "You too?"
Based on the information she had obtained in the previous game, Chen Shanshan said, "The monsters of our Spirit Prairie are different from those in the Monster Valley. They only know brute force. The underground people are smart. Why do they have to hand over their belongings if they want to be searched? They can also be searched with their belongings. "
The fox thought about this and was reminded by Chen Shanshan. "Is it … he wants to take the opportunity to see if there are any monsters smuggling stolen goods?" Then he quickly refuted himself. "No, that's not right. There were at least 50 monsters smuggling stolen goods every day. However, the underground customs officers were blind and it was good to find five. That's why he just wants to find as many as possible. "
Chen Shanshan asked, "What if we can help him collect it?"
Three minutes later, David and Pete, who were standing behind the monsters, frowned when they saw a fox-like monster wandering among the monsters. The monsters he was looking for were prairie monsters. He said a few words and the monsters showed surprised expressions.
Then, the monster walked to the front and spoke to the dwarf official.
David wondered, "How can that monster be so dramatic? Is he the guy from the monster team?"
Pete looked at the fox. "It is possible. But David, did you forget? The task of the monster team is to assist the customs team. The black tower didn't say what kind of assistance is. Perhaps he only needs to find the guy from the customs team and the mission will be successful. If I was that guy, I wouldn't be so stupid as to expose myself and be so conspicuous among the monsters. I will hide myself. "
David thought about it. "What the hell is he doing?"
The yellow fox rubbed his hands and looked down at the dwarf official. "Sir, if you collect it alone, how long will it take? We have 20 monsters here. If we help you, it will take at most half an hour to collect them all. "
The dwarf's eyes narrowed and he coughed. "Help me? I'm not in a hurry. Take your time. "
The fox winked. "Don't. If it takes too long, the impulsive and rude monsters in the Monster Valley will be angry. It won't look good for everyone." The male fox hid his hands under his sleeves and made a 'three' gesture. "I'll take seven and you take three."
The dwarf was stunned at first and then ecstatic. He restrained himself. "No."
The fox cried out, "Four!"
The dwarf replied, "No."
The fox gritted his teeth. "Fifty-fifty!"
The dwarf was delighted. "Good!"
It didn't take long for David and Pete to see more than 20 monsters holding number tags and collecting the belongings of other monsters. At first, they didn't feel anything unusual until a yellow fox was in the middle of the monster group. He suddenly raised a golden pocket watch. "Sir, I report her. I report her for smuggling!"
The deer monster's eyes were red with anxiety. "You, you are talking nonsense!"
The fox's tail rose. "Whether I am talking nonsense or not, the officer will know when he sees it."
The dwarf chief came over to check. "Oh, you dare to smuggle an invisible person's pocket watch. This thing isn't allowed to be taken to the monster world. It doesn't matter how much tax you pay! "As he spoke, the dwarf took out three silver coins and threw them to the fox. The fox smiled and stuffed a hidden one back into the dwarf's hand. "I'll make up for it later."
The dwarf was satisfied and left with the pocket watch.
Following that, voices rose and fell in succession in the wooden hut.
"You hid this bow in your belt and you thought I wouldn't find it? You are trying to evade taxes! "
"Well, you dare to hide a ring in your mouth! Sir, I report her for smuggling. This is stolen goods! "
Some stolen goods weren't allowed to be smuggled and would be confiscated even if tax was paid. For some stolen goods, as long as the monster paid the tax, it could still get a number plate, and the monster could collect the stolen goods later.
David breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, our things can be taken away as long as we pay some money. These two wolves have wallets with a lot of silver coins in them. They probably left it when they smuggled stolen goods in the past. "
David didn't intend to be too conspicuous. He paid the money and continued to hide.
Beside him, the blonde foreigner's eyebrows furrowed tightly. Pete closed his eyes and his fingers quickly stroked the red agate bracelet on his wrist. The next second, he suddenly opened his eyes. "Fuck! David, we've been tricked. It's that damned Monster Squad's doing! "
David was stunned. "Pete, what are you talking about?"
Pete shouted angrily, "You still don't understand? I finally understand now. The black tower gave us only one of the stolen goods. It wants us to smuggle something that none of the 500 beasts present have! Otherwise, the two guys on the customs team wouldn't be able to win in this game. There are too many stolen goods and no one knows which one is the real stolen goods. Unless there are so many stolen goods, all the other stolen goods appear in pairs or even more. Only ours, "the blond man shook the banana distillers' grains in his hand." This damn thing is the only one! "
Pete gritted his teeth and crushed the red agate bracelet on his wrist. "We were played by the bastards of the monster team!"
In the glass hut, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo didn't know what was happening outside.
Before getting the test paper, Tang Mo still felt lucky. The black tower shouldn't give them such a high difficulty. Perhaps he and Fu Wenduo could do this test paper. But after getting the test paper, Tang Mo was delighted when he saw the first question. Then he saw the second question and suddenly, "…"
The 9614th civil servant examination of the Underground Man Kingdom
Question 1: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 … + 99 =? Please calculate.
Question 2: If the princess went out for a walk and met an underground person wearing frog clothes, what would she say first?
A. You ugly flea!
B. You ugly frog!
C。 C. You ugly guy!
D. You ugly little biscuit!
… Who knew what the princess would say?
Besides, why did the civil servant examination have to test such a strange thing?
He continued to read and the questions were even more strange.
Tang Mo turned to look at Fu Wenduo and Fu Wenduo shook his head. "The question of the Happy Question and Answer is simpler than this."
It was 100 times simpler than this!
Tang Mo tried to write down the answers to the questions he could answer on the test paper while quietly observing the outside world. He found that some monsters were helping the gnomes collect items. Tang Mo noticed something was wrong and raised an eyebrow. He soon found that the monsters had finished collecting the items.
Collecting items and reporting stowaways.
The world outside the glass hut was much livelier than inside.
Tang Mo's eyes swept over all the monsters. It was obvious that he couldn't find Chen Shanshan. However, he watched as the monsters reported their companions and his lips slowly curved. "Shanshan, good job."
Fu Wenduo stopped writing and stared at the situation outside.
After a moment, he whispered, "I originally thought that if we couldn't write this test paper, there was only one way to clear the instance. The gnome collected all the monsters' belongings and piled them up. "Fu Wenduo pointed to the corner." There are about 700 or 800 things. Our chicken coop can now hold 10 things. In addition, we should be able to take away all those things with the curtains. After all, the things that can be smuggled aren't too big. However, after doing this, our identities will be exposed. The underground people and monsters are our enemies. There are also two players from the second monster team. How do we break out of the encirclement? This game is a test of our strength. "
Tang Mo smiled. "What about now?"
"Now, at least we know which items are smuggled and which are normal. There are fewer things to take away. Perhaps Shanshan can help us find out which item is unique. As long as we take it away, we will win. "
Tang Mo thought about it. "Is that it? Do we have to expose our identities? "
Fu Wenduo's dark eyes stared at Tang Mo and his lips curved.
"It depends on how many surprises the little girl can bring us."
Yes, from beginning to end, there were two ways for Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo to clear this branch mission.
First, they used force to take away all the monsters' belongings. The gnome chief would collect the monsters' belongings and organize them all in one place. This was the black tower's last help to Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, making it possible for them to take away all the items.
However, this was too much of a test of their strength.
They had to escape from the encirclement of the monsters and the underground people. They also had to be wary of the second monster team who could attack at any time.
The strength of the two players wasn't weak. Tang Mo wasn't sure if he could win against them in a one-on-one fight.
The second was the monster team's mission: Assist the customs team to find the stolen goods.
The black tower's definition of finding was very vague. What exactly was found? Even if they saw it, did they have to hold it in their hands to find it? Tang Mo speculated that it was more likely the latter. They had to take the stolen goods from the hands of the second monster team.
What Chen Shanshan wanted to do wasn't necessarily difficult. She was just attacking the black tower's third floor. Perhaps she didn't have to do anything, just help pay attention to the movements of the monsters. This was considered 'assistance' and she could clear this branch mission.
But she did more than that.
It was impossible for an underground official to find all the stolen goods hidden by the monsters. Only benefits could make people tempted. Thus, she incited a seemingly smart black tower monster to gather more people to search the monsters one by one and search all the stolen goods that might be hidden.
If they found a stolen item, they could get a reward. The highest reward was one king's gold coin.
Anyone would be tempted.
