"No.
The way of death isn't the same as the nursery rhyme! "
Once Mu Huixue and Andrei opened the door, they heard a loud female voice. The two of them looked at each other.
They walked downstairs together.
They saw that at the corner of the stairs, the Chinese female player Li Xia and two European players were around the handrail.
It was unknown what they were looking at.
Hearing that, Lena Jophos sneered and said, "This murderer is already arrogant enough to blatantly tell us that.
The killer isn't the black tower, the black tower monster or a human? He's too lazy to hide. "
The other players heard their conversation and went downstairs one by one.
The two American male players went downstairs together.
Then it was the East Asian player Yamamoto Takao and then the old man George. After a few minutes, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo went downstairs.
The old man saw Tang Mo.
His body trembled slightly before he covered it up. It was as if he didn't know Tang Mo and hadn't left the room last night. Tang Mo's eyes were fixed on him.
The corners of his lips slightly curved.
Mu Huixue bent down to check the cause of Abdullah's death. "A sharp weapon pierced his brain and he should have been fighting for a long time. There are a lot of marks on his body. At the same time, look at the walls and stairs around us. "
The group followed Mu Huixue's line of sight.
Mu Huixue said, "Bai Ruoyao didn't leave these claw marks and round holes when he fought the murderer yesterday. Therefore, these claw marks and small round holes should be left by Abdullah and the murderer who killed him last night. If I'm not wrong.
Mu Huixue grabbed Abdullah's fingers.
The nails on his 10 fingers were black.
Three of the nails on his right hand were broken and dripping with blood. "The claw marks were left by Abdullah and the others were left by the murderer."
Yamamoto Takao thought for a moment. "Abdullah's nails are obviously not ordinary. It is likely that this is his ability."
Lena Jophos looked at everyone around her with disdain. "Then who killed him?"
Mu Huixue was about to speak when she suddenly remembered something and looked at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo.
The three people stared at each other.
Tang Mo nodded gently. Mu Huixue was surprised for a moment before changing the topic. "Was there only one person who died last night?"
Abdullah's body was next to the stairs, and the group remembered to look for other bodies.
They turned over the entire third floor of the castle. When they reached the attic, everyone found that Bai Ruoyao's body was gone.
Li Xia clenched her fists. "As expected, the murderer wants to take away all the corpses. What does he want to do? "
"Wait, I think I found his body."
Everyone immediately looked towards the source of the sound.
He saw Yamamoto Takao standing at the stairs outside the attic, looking down along the direction of the staircase railing. "Is that his body?"
Everyone went downstairs in unison.
When they reached the corner of the first flight of stairs, they turned back again. When they reached the back of the stairs, they saw a body lying on the ground.
Tang Mo's lips opened before closing again.
He didn't expect the other party to hide Bai Ruoyao's body in this place. At night, the light behind the stairs was dim. If one didn't look carefully with a lamp, they wouldn't be able to see anything clearly. Tang Mo had come here to search before. After killing Abdullah last night, he went to the second and third floors and didn't find the body. Then he returned to his room. He didn't expect Bai Ruoyao's body to be hidden here.
The American player, John, frowned. "What does this mean? The murderer didn't take away the body last night? "
Why didn't he take away the body last night? Why did he take away all the bodies from the previous two days?
Did the murderer pick the people?
Lian Yuzheng was about to speak when a low laugh was heard. The European player, Don Savik, smiled and saw everyone looking at him strangely. He smiled gently and said, "There is something I am very concerned about. Before today, for three consecutive days, these two Chinese players … Don and Fu, always left their rooms early and even rushed to the scene of the crime. Today, you stayed in the room for a long time … "
Don looked at them curiously and smiled. "I am a bit curious. What were you doing in the room?"
The players' expressions changed as soon as this sentence was said.
This sentence seemed to have a peachy atmosphere but no one had any extra thoughts at this time.
Don added, "Is it possible that one of you was injured and wanted to take the time to heal?"
Lian Yuzheng also understood who Abdullah's murderer was and immediately said, "If I remember correctly, you three American players came out very late, right?"
The two young players directly retorted, "What do you mean? We came out a little late but we weren't late at all. Our room was the innermost. Is there anything wrong with being slower than you? "
Lian Yuzheng asked, "What about him?" She was referring to the old man.
The old man replied, "I had some private matters to deal with and tried my ability in the room to see if I could use it normally. That's why I was late."
Lina asked, "The reason is very good. What about you?"
The cold short-haired woman sneered at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo. Her tone was extremely aggressive, as if she had seen them kill someone.
Mu Huixue's group of three were unhappy. However, they didn't expect Tang Mo to smile. "Yes, I left the room last night."
What?
All the players stared at Tang Mo with astonishment.
The smile on Don Savik's face disappeared as if he sensed something was wrong.
The next second, Tang Mo said in a calm tone, "By the way, I killed him."
Mu Huixue: "Tang Mo?!"
The two American players immediately pulled out their weapons and looked at Tang Mo with vigilance. Lina and Don were also serious.
Tang Mo walked to Abdullah's body and said, "We started fighting from the attic. I jumped down from the upstairs. "He gestured." He also chased me down. Then we fought from the dining table to the fireplace. He kicked the fireplace and I stabbed his head with my weapon. If you want to find traces, you should be able to find a complete line to prove that I'm right. "
Lina asked, "So, you admit that you killed them all? Where did you put the previous three bodies? "
Tang Mo replied, "Did I say that I killed the previous people? Last night, he attacked me first and I fought back. At the time, I thought he had killed another person and attacked. However, I soon learned that I was wrong. Abdullah didn't kill the other person and Bai Ruoyao's body was hidden by that person. His purpose was very simple. He wanted to mislead me or mislead Abdullah so that we would doubt each other. Then we would fight and one person would die. "
Andrei asked, "Who is the other person?"
Tang Mo pointed directly to the old man. "Him."
The old man looked calm. "I don't know what you are talking about. I didn't go out last night."
Tang Mo smiled. "The blood on the attic door was left by you."
The old man's eyes flashed and he asked, "What blood?"
Tang Mo led the group upstairs. He crouched down and touched the completely dried reddish-brown blood on the attic door. "You did it very cleverly. You arranged the blood in such an inconspicuous place so that when the blood was found, it could be disguised as the murderer not noticing it. However, you knew or believed in my and Abdullah's strength. You knew that no matter who went to the attic first, they would definitely find this blood and think that you were killed by the other party. The other party also stole Bai Ruoyao's body. "
The old man said, "I can indeed do all that you said, and your reasoning seems to be flawless. But in fact, I didn't go out and I don't need to do so many things. What is in it for me? "
Tang Mo stated, "The benefits have come out. Abdullah is dead."
The old man frowned. "What benefits is this? What does his death have to do with me?"
Tang Mo stated, "You have one less competitor."
Everyone's eyes wandered back and forth between Tang Mo and the old man.
The old man stared at Tang Mo for a long time before smiling. "You are right but I really didn't go out."
Tang Mo didn't refute him. Instead, he took out a bottle of reddish-brown liquid from his pocket. He opened it and handed it to Fu Wenduo. Fu Wenduo smelled it and handed it to Mu Huixue. Everyone passed it on in turn.
The old man showed a suspicious expression when he saw Tang Mo take out such a bottle. He took the bottle of brown liquid and smelled it. "Red wine?"
"Yes, it is red wine." Tang Mo's tone was calm. "On the first day, I poured some from the red wine bottle on the table and put it in a small bottle that I carried with me. The red wine is left in the air for a long time and the taste will fade. The smell of this small bottle of red wine is so light that none of us can smell it unless we get close. That's why I took it with me when I went out last night. I also found a chance to sprinkle a little on the two players I met. "
The old man's eyes widened with amazement and he looked down at himself.
Tang Mo smiled. "Don't look. It is behind you. I touched you last night when I closed the attic door. "
Bell immediately went behind the old man. Sure enough, there was a brown mark the size of a finger on the back of the white suit jacket he was wearing. Bell sniffed and sneered. "It really is red wine. Last night, you were one of the three players who came out! "
The old man was silent for a moment and didn't panic when he spoke again. "I didn't expect you to prepare so much. It's true that I went out last night but I didn't do anything last night. I denied it before because I didn't want to cause trouble and make you suspect me. You also heard it. He just admitted that he killed Abdullah and it has nothing to do with me. You all know, and I have always known, that in terms of combat ability, I am the weakest of the 17 players. That's why I returned to my room after searching the castle last night. I was afraid of being killed by him. "He pointed to Tang Mo." Fortunately, I came back or I would have become a corpse like Abdullah. "
Tang Mo asked, "You don't admit that you moved Bai Ruoyao's body and deliberately left blood behind?"
The old man asked, "Why would I do that? What is in it for me? Even if you all died, I wouldn't be able to clear the instance. "
A low male voice was heard. "Didn't you just say the reason?"
The old man turned to look at Fu Wenduo.
Fu Wenduo's lips curved. "It is because you are weak."
Tang Mo asked, "Mr. Yamamoto Takao, can you tell us what method you were talking about yesterday when Mu Huixue asked everyone if they had thought of a way to clear the instance?"
Yamamoto Takao was silent. He looked at Tang Mo and finally decided to say, "On the day Noah came, we didn't really need to find the monster and barbecue it for Noah. We just needed to live longer than other players. The black tower said that if Noah couldn't eat the barbecued monster, he would eat all the players. Then … if we set a person on fire while Noah was eating, there would always be one person who would eat the real monster. "
He concluded, "The only thing I had to do was to live. The longer I lived, the better. However, this could only be said to be living. After clearing the game, none of us found the monster, couldn't write our names on the red tickets or complete the grab the sixth mode to get clues to the seventh floor. "But he wanted to live more than clues.
Yamamoto Takao closed his mouth and didn't say the last sentence.
Andrei looked at the old man. "All of us know this method. Thus, you must be the first human to be eaten by Noah. "
The old man's face darkened but he quickly regained his composure. He sneered. "Maybe you are right but I am the weakest and can't kill people. Last night, I didn't participate in your battle and it was the first time I got a chance to go out. Of the five players who died, I didn't kill any of them. "
John thought about it. "He's right. Forget David and Anatoly who were killed on the second day. He shouldn't even be able to kill Lena Jokel who died on the first day. "
Mu Huixue suddenly smiled. "He really didn't kill them."
John turned to look at her.
Mu Huixue crossed her arms over her chest and smiled helplessly. She said softly, "The brain circuits of a pervert are sometimes very different. These were the words of my dead companion. He might be a very neurotic person but he isn't an abnormal person. He guessed some things but it wasn't enough. For example, in this castle, there were a few people who thought of a real way to clear the grab the sixth mode from the beginning. "
Li Xia was surprised. "What method?"
Mu Huixue explained, "They can't write their names on the red tickets because they don't know who the monster is. Even if the black tower eats the monster in the end, it will be too late. So … what if they kill everyone except themselves? The monster hides well and camouflages but it is always different from humans. The moment you kill it, you will understand if it is a human or a monster. " Mu Huixue paused before speaking in a calm voice. "This is the real way to clear the game."
Mu Huixue's words caused Li Xia and the others to show expressions of realization.
Yamamoto Takao frowned and thought about the feasibility of this method. Finally, he sighed. "It can also be like this."
On the day that Bai Ruoyao died, the five people gathered together. At that time, they understood the meaning of the baby-faced youth's last words.
The brain circuits of an abnormal person were sometimes very different.
Bai Ruoyao vaguely guessed this method but he wasn't such an abnormal person. He wouldn't kill all the players in the same game to achieve his own victory. Thus, he died at the hands of a real abnormal person and couldn't return to his room.
Hardedef asked, "You just said that a few people thought of this method and killed other players … who is it?"
George Ansoni stood indifferently and didn't say anything.
Tang Mo glanced at him. Everyone knew that this seemingly weakest old man was actually a player of the killing faction. But who else could it be?
Tang Mo laughed through his nose. "To be able to find a way to steal the body without being discovered by us, it is rare for someone to think of such a magical method. It is impossible for two groups to think of it at the same time. It can only be the same group of people. The person who stole Lena's body and the person who stole David and Anatoly definitely isn't him. " He pointed to the old man. "If he thought of that method, he wouldn't have left Bai Ruoyao's body."
Li Xia clenched her dagger.
"Who is it?"
"It is …"
The next moment, a silver light flashed. Fu Wenduo raised his wrist, and a small dart shot out from his hand, shooting straight at Lena Jokel. The powerful European female player tilted her head, stretched out two fingers, and caught the dart firmly between them.
Don Savik smiled. "What do you mean, Fu Wenduo?"
Fu Wenduo replied, "They don't know but we know Bai Ruoyao's strength. That person is very powerful and is particularly terrible when everyone's abilities are restricted. If it was just me who killed him mercilessly, there was only a 30% chance of him dying. If it was Mu Huixue, the probability was less than 30%. In this castle, no matter who it was, as long as they fought him alone, the probability of killing him was less than 50%. But he died. Thus … apart from him that night, two other players joined forces to kill him. "
Don explained helplessly, "My friend, Lena and I aren't the only teammates in this castle. Your two friends are also teammates. Besides, what about these two Americans? "
"Damn guy, don't talk nonsense!" John and Bell retorted with displeasure.
Mu Huixue asked, "Why do you think I suddenly attacked them yesterday?"
Don's eyes narrowed and the smile on his face disappeared.
Mu Huixue explained, "It was because I wanted to verify if they had the strength to kill Fox!"
Mu Huixue's voice fell and her red whip pierced the air. She was like a fierce cheetah as she rushed towards Lena Jokel. On the other side, Tang Mo's group also attacked Don Savik.
Li Xia, Yamamoto Takao and the two American players hesitated for a moment and didn't make a move.
For a time, Mu Huixue and Andrei faced Lena while Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo and Lian Yuzheng faced Don.
The seven people fought on the first floor of the castle, smashing the tables, chairs and tiles.
Tang Mo only understood why Bai Ruoyao died at the hands of these two people and why these two people became the first players in the world to clear the black tower's fifth floor.
Their close combat ability was extremely strong and wasn't weaker than Fu Wenduo!
The cooperation between these two people was also very tacit. Tang Mo's group deliberately separated the two of them, wanting to break them one by one. The two of them could always join hands and help each other, forming an effect of one plus one greater than two. However, there were only two of them and they quickly fell into a disadvantage.
At this time, Lena turned around and shouted at the other players, "Damn, you aren't coming up to help. George, you old man, don't you want to win? There are three places and Don and I only occupy one. Now we have three bodies in our hands. If the monster is among the three people and we die, can you find the bodies and clear the instance? "
Li Xia's group of four heard this and their expressions flickered. In the end, they didn't make a move.
The old man weighed it again and again before suddenly making a decision.
If he didn't do this, he wouldn't get the reward of the grab the sixth mode!
The old man shouted and suddenly slammed his palms on the ground. A strange wave passed through the air and affected the bodies of Tang Mo and the others in the castle.
The old man cried out, "My ability is limited by the black tower and can only last for three minutes!"
All the players present didn't know what the old man's ability was that allowed him to smoothly clear the black tower's sixth floor. Then Tang Mo raised the small parasol, trying to block Don's sudden attack. He couldn't open the small parasol but the parasol was a good prop and it was good as a shield.
Just as Tang Mo raised the small parasol, he saw Donder's knife hit the handle of the small parasol. However, his shoulder suddenly felt pain.
Tang Mo immediately felt that something was wrong. He kicked Donder and retreated. He touched his shoulder and blood stained his palm.
The same situation happened on Mu Huixue's side.
Mu Huixue's whip was clearly aimed at Lena's arm but a second later, she saw that Lena couldn't tie her up.
After a few rounds, Fu Wenduo shouted, "His ability is to hypnotize your vision and delay your visual presentation. The delay time is 0.3 seconds!"
Everyone's expressions sank.
Yes, the old man's ability was exposed at this moment. It was visual hypnosis of the enemy.
In Tang Mo's eyes, he clearly saw Don's knife slash towards his chest but in fact, what he saw was 0.3 seconds later than what really happened. In a battle between masters, the slightest difference was a thousand miles. The old man himself didn't have much combat strength but his ability was more terrifying than Ruan Wangshu's gravity suppression.
Three minutes seemed short but it was enough to change the battle.
In the first minute, Don and Lena seized the opportunity to counterattack. Then in the second minute, Fu Wenduo was the first to adapt. His terrifying combat experience allowed him to quickly hypnotize himself and delay the scene in front of him by 0.3 seconds so he could roughly keep up with Don's movements.
After a while, Mu Huixue, Tang Mo and the others also adapted to this terrifying ability and started to counterattack.
If they were not facing Donder and Lina at this moment, if there were two more opponents, even one more, the result would be greatly different.
Lina and Donder were forced to retreat, and the old white man's ability was about to end. He was sweating and suddenly felt that he had chosen the wrong teammate. He shouldn't have trusted these two damn Europeans.
From beginning to end, Lena and Don didn't use any abilities. Perhaps their ability was the same as Fu Wenduo's. Two days ago, they used it when they killed Bai Ruoyao and now it was on cooldown.
Finally, with a pale face, the old man retracted his hands from the ground. He collapsed to the ground in exhaustion, and his superpower suddenly stopped. Fu Wenduo seized the opportunity and his right hand turned, the dark triangular weapon stabbing towards Don's heart. On the other side, Andrei's fists were like tigers as he fiercely blocked Lena's way. Mu Huixue wrapped her whip around her neck and pulled her in front of her.
In order to avoid Fu Wenduo's black weapon, Donder exposed his heart to Tang Mo.
Tang Mo's eyes narrowed as he pulled out a small silver butterfly knife and stabbed it towards Don's chest. At this moment, sinister smiles appeared on Don and Lena's faces.
Time suddenly stopped at this moment. Tang Mo's hand holding the butterfly knife stopped in midair and Mu Huixue's whip froze in the air.
Only Lena and Donder moved their bodies quickly. Time was running out. Sweat dripped down from Donder's head and landed on the ground, making pitter-patter sounds. He went behind Tang Mo, raised the knife and slashed down.
The still river of time flowed again but Don and Lena had already circled behind and were about to kill Tang Mo and Mu Huixue.
Bang!
Bang!
Two ear-piercing gunshots sounded. Lina and Donder lowered their heads and looked at their chests in disbelief.
On their chests, there was a huge black hole that pierced through their bodies. Blood gushed out. Tang Mo still had his back to Donder. He held a silver butterfly knife in his left hand while his right hand quietly reached behind his back to grab a handgun. He hid it behind his waist and pulled the trigger. Similarly, Fu Wenduo's gun accurately pierced Lena's heart.
Don opened his mouth and blood sprayed out.
"Why … why did you know and prepare …"
Tang Mo put away the gun and looked down at the silver butterfly knife. "When I first met this guy, I forced him to cut off his right arm. Since then, he has wanted to kill me. He knows what my ability is, but he doesn't know why I was able to kill him back then, and even know his name. " The secret of the turkey egg was only known by the team. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo kept it very well and never revealed it to anyone.
Tang Mo put away the silver butterfly knife and turned to look at the desperate Don Savik. His voice was calm. "But he is very smart. He must know that I have the ability to go back in time. Thus, he suddenly cut off his right arm before he died. You don't know why. " “
Two days ago, Noah's Ark Castle.
Lena and Don had never encountered such a powerful enemy.
Their luck was very good that night. They had three qualifications to go out and both of them were among them. It was easy for the two of them to kill a player if they joined forces. But they didn't expect that they would almost fail.
Fortunately, Lena's ability was similar to stopping time.
Originally, the baby-faced youth almost killed Lena and could escape. But at that moment, Lena used her ability and stabbed the guy's chest. She stabbed the guy in the chest. Lina had seen his shocked expression on other players' faces countless times, but every time she saw it, she felt that it was incomparably delicious.
She licked the blood on her lips and pulled out her knife.
"Idiot, die."
Luck would always run out. Anyone could see that she and Don had won. The Chinese player who claimed to be very lucky and couldn't be killed was definitely dead.
However, at the moment before his death, he suddenly mustered up strength from somewhere and chopped off his own right arm with a single slash.
Lena couldn't stop it but she and Don didn't think there was anything wrong. They thought that the other person had a way to escape. They waited for a while and confirmed that the other person was really dead. The two of them were going to clean up the body but day was coming.
There was no time to deal with the body and they could only rush back to the room to deal with their wounds.
The right arm fell to the ground behind them along the stairs. The dull sound was very similar to the two gunshots that pierced Lena's and Don's chests.
"The climax always comes quickly. I believe in that guy so I deliberately left this ability to you."
Tang Mo put the butterfly knife in his pocket and looked at the corner of the stairs where the baby-faced youth died.
