Tang Mo quickly covered the eyes of Fu Wensheng, who was closest to him.
At the same time,
Mu Huixue also covered Chen Shanshan's eyes.
Tang Mo felt his palms warm and wet,
The boy in his arms trembled,
Tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Chen Shanshan was much calmer.
She pulled Mu Huixue's hand and spoke in a hoarse voice, "… It's okay." The little girl was silent when she heard it. After a while, Chen Shanshan looked at the ruins of Beijing.
She spoke again. This time,
Her voice was firm. "It's really okay."
No one spoke.
In this way, in the face of this shocking and magnificent death,
The six people stared silently for a long time.
Finally,
Fu Wenduo reached out and pulled the curtains. Everyone recovered.
Fu Wensheng wiped away his tears.
His heart was still stuffy and uncomfortable. He knew that the black tower said that in these seven days,
More than 2,000 black towers would disappear every day,
Along with it, the city and the humans in that area disappeared. But …
"It wasn't difficult to defeat the circus leader. Big Brother and the other three joined forces.
It really wasn't that difficult. But why,
Why … "
Why was it only when he saw the collapse of human civilization that he understood,
How cruel this game was.
How many people could they save?
Every day,
More than 2,000 black towers disappeared. There were only six of them,
And there were five black towers in the world.
Andrei suddenly stood up. "I'm going to Berlin."
Everyone understood what he meant.
Mu Huixue also stood up. "I'll go with you."
Andrei stared at her with dark eyes and spoke in a dull voice. "You stay."
Mu Huixue was stunned.
Andrei looked deeply at Mu Huixue and didn't give a reason. He picked up the fur coat he took off to heal his wounds and walked out of the building. The tall and strong Russian walked on the desolate road. The Changping district was full of players who had fled from Beijing. They all fled to the north.
Amidst the swarming crowd, there was only one tall and sturdy figure that went against the crowd, resolutely heading towards the west.
The place he was going was Europe.
Even if he couldn't get there in seven days, even if he could die at any time because of the disappearance of the black tower, he had to go.
Fu Wenduo stood on the tall building and looked at Andrei's back. After a while, he said, "Let's go to Beijing first to see if there are any survivors. We'll also leave for Guangzhou tomorrow."
"Alright."
Once Beijing's black tower disappeared, it became an uninhabited ruin. Everything was clearly separated. The two ends of the same road. One end was unchanged, while the other had turned into pieces of cement.
Tang Mo stood in the middle of the road and stretched out his hand at the intersection of the two districts. He turned his head and said, "I'm fine. It seemed that the only way to survive for seven days was to find an area that had disappeared and survive there. Most of them should be able to think of this method. I reckon that they will soon turn back and hide here for seven days. "
They walked toward the 80th High School.
Unfortunately, they couldn't find any Heaven's Chosen members. No one knew if they had died in Beijing or if they had managed to escape.
The broken bricks and tiles of the high-rise buildings piled up into small hills on the ground. When all the modern buildings collapsed, people realized that the civilization that humans had built on this land had actually surpassed nature itself.
Beijing, Chaoyang District.
Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo set out to find the surviving humans and search some ruins to find information about the disappearance of the black tower. Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng were resting. Fu Wensheng was greatly shocked tonight. He was the one with the worst psychological endurance among the six people in the team. He recalled his gaffe in the evening and felt guilty.
He quickly became strong.
There wasn't much he could do. He could only consume his ability as much as possible to make a higher level healing mineral water.
Chen Shanshan wrote and drew in her book. She looked up and suddenly found that Mu Huixue was gone. The little girl frowned and got up to look for her.
The bright moonlight shone on the ruins of Beijing. It was empty and lonely and there was no trace of a person.
Chen Shanshan naturally didn't know that the Mu Huixue she was looking for was lying at the top of the hill next to them. She used her right hand as a pillow and looked at the white moon. After a long time, she stretched out her left hand and narrowed her eyes. The moonlight shone through the gap between her fingers and mottled shadows shone on her face.
In this way, the world's most powerful returnee basked in the moon and looked at it.
Five minutes later, Mu Huixue smiled. "Since I'm here, why can't I come out? I thought we were already friends or … teammates? "
Dull footsteps were heard from behind the ruins.
He was wrapped in a thick fur coat and his face was buried in a hat, only revealing a pair of green eyes. Andrei stepped over the broken masonry and glass as he walked to the top of the hill. He didn't speak and didn't say why he went and returned. He just looked at Mu Huixue with calm eyes.
Mu Huixue looked at the moon and asked, "Why did you come back?"
There was a long silence before Andrei spoke in a low voice. "I walked halfway before deciding to come back to kill you." Andrei's voice suddenly stopped and he glanced to the side. Then he turned his head and said to Mu Huixue, "I'm sorry but we all know … you must die."
Mu Huixue asked, "Are you afraid of death?"
Andrei replied, "I'm not afraid. If you don't want to, I can kill you and then commit suicide."
However, you must die.
Andrei didn't say the rest.
Mu Huixue certainly knew what he meant. She looked at the moon and smiled. "In fact, I'm not afraid of death. Since you aren't living for yourself, then why did you kill me? Do you still want to resurrect your daughter or your wife? "
"I won't resurrect Valentina. I promised you that you killed 78 people and I lost the bet. Thus, I won't kill you to resurrect Valentina. However, there are still more than 3 million people living in this world. This is the world where Valentina lived. Even if more than 3 million people die … I don't want this world to disappear. Thus, you know, I want to resurrect him. "
"Even if the truth isn't like that, killing me to resurrect him means we might not be able to find the last tower?"
Andrei closed his mouth and didn't speak again.
Mu Huixue raised her arms and smiled at the moon. "But there is only 1% hope. We can't give up." The next moment, she said, "Why are you still hiding? Come out."
A few seconds later, Chen Shanshan silently walked out from behind the ruins.
Just now, Andrei and Mu Huixue had spoken in Russian. Mu Huixue turned to look at the child and asked in Russian, "Do you understand?"
It was normal for such a small child not to know Russian.
However, she was Chen Shanshan.
Chen Shanshan was silent for a moment before replying in Russian, "Teacher taught me."
Mu Huixue was stunned for a moment before saying, "You are the smartest child I have ever seen. I know it's your ability, but I'm curious. Do you know what I was talking about with Andre just now? "She winked slyly." If you guess it right, I'll give you a secret. How about that? "
Chen Shanshan wanted to say that she didn't want Mu Huixue's secret but she didn't say anything. Instead, she closed her eyes and recalled the conversation between them. Once she opened her eyes again, her voice was calm. "Killing the first person on the time leaderboard can resurrect a player who died in the game. Andrei went and came back because he wasn't sure if you would commit suicide and kill yourself to resurrect this person. He was worried that you were afraid of death so he came back to kill you with his own hands. "
Andrei listened to this with a surprised expression. It was the first time he looked at Chen Shanshan seriously.
This wasn't the first time Mu Huixue fought against this little girl. She hugged her knees and sat on the ground, looking at Chen Shanshan with interest. "Continue."
"Andrei said that he didn't kill you to resurrect his wife and daughter. Now it seems that he chased you to resurrect his wife and daughter. Now he doesn't want to do this. If it wasn't for his loved ones, he wanted to kill you and was even more determined. There can only be one reason … the person he wants to resurrect is related to the tower attack game on the seventh floor. " Chen Shanshan paused before looking up and speaking in a certain tone, "That person knows where the last tower is."
Mu Huixue laughed and applauded. "You really are the smartest child I have ever seen. No, you might be the smartest player I have ever seen. Your answer is most likely correct. Apart from me and Andrei, no one is sure if that person can find the last black tower. However, you can guess who Andrei wants to resurrect. Friendly reminder, you know that person. "
Chen Shanshan squeezed her fingers and stared at Mu Huixue.
"… Is it him?"
"Yes."
Chen Shanshan almost blurted out, "Why?"
Mu Huixue asked, "Don't you know the reason? Only he knows where the last tower is."
Chen Shanshan's mouth opened before she calmed down. The little girl looked at Mu Huixue and then at Andrei.
In the ruins of Beijing, the woman in black with a high ponytail sat on the highest hill and smiled at her. The moonlight shone on her body, making her look cold and lonely. Beside her, the brown bear-like Russian player stood silently. There was no murderous intent in his eyes but his attention was focused on the woman in black.
As long as she ran, he would catch up to her and use all methods to kill her.
Mu Huixue didn't mean to escape. As Chen Shanshan turned to leave, she said, "Let her kill me."
Chen Shanshan's footsteps paused and she turned around.
Andrei looked down at her. "Her?"
Mu Huixue spread her hands. "Since it is death, it is the same who kills me. Compared to you, I want to die at the hands of a child. She is much cuter than you. "
Andrei looked seriously at Mu Huixue and found that Mu Huixue was still smiling. However, her eyes were firm and she was determined to die.
They were never people who were afraid of death.
"Okay."
The Russian man walked down the ruins and stopped talking about killing Mu Huixue.
For the first time, Chen Shanshan felt helpless. She stood on the ruins and saw Mu Huixue take out a small and delicate compass. She said, "In fact, I asked Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo to kill me. I said I wanted to die but I still want to live. Don't get me wrong. I'm not as afraid of death as Fly and I don't want to live. In fact, as the circus leader said today, he can't kill me and none of you can kill me. It is because … I have this compass. "
Mu Huixue took out the fallacy compass and a dagger in her other hand. She aimed the tip of the knife at her heart and stabbed it.
Chen Shanshan was shocked. "You?"
"It's okay. With this kind of injury, I won't die even without the fallacy compass." The dagger brought a trace of blood from her heart. Mu Huixue wiped the blood from her lips and smeared the blood on the compass. She very patiently dyed the pointer of the fallacy compass with blood and said, "Speaking of which, you are so smart. A long time ago, I cleared the fourth floor of the Black Tower. It was the fusion of the two worlds. Can you guess why I clearly cleared the fourth floor but suddenly failed? It took me more than 10 days to clear it?"
Three months ago, the black tower suddenly sang a song for a strange player. The always indifferent black tower enthusiastically praised the player and didn't hide his love for the player.
At that time, Mu Huixue cleared the fourth floor and almost opened the black tower 4.0 version. Suddenly, her clearance came to an end and the black tower update was temporarily suspended. After half a month, she officially cleared the instance and opened the black tower 4.0 version.
Chen Shanshan wondered, "Is it because of the fallacy compass?"
Mu Huixue: "Wow, you're such a meticulous person."
She didn't understand this Cantonese but it didn't prevent Chen Shanshan from understanding the meaning of this sentence. She explained, "You just said that you can't die because of the fallacy compass. Then you asked this question. It is obvious that you failed to clear the fourth floor because of the fallacy compass. "
"You finally guessed wrong."
Chen Shanshan was stunned.
"It wasn't because of the fallacy compass. At that time, I attacked the tower just to let the black tower boss kill me and die in the game. I didn't want any returnee to kill me and resurrect others. I also didn't want to give 260,000 points of rest time to a returnee who killed people. Thus, I chose to enter the tower attack game on the fourth floor. Unfortunately, I cleared the game. When I cleared the instance, I saw the fallacy compass … "Mu Huixue's blood completely dyed the pointer of the fallacy compass. She smiled and said," Ordinary black tower monsters can't kill me. What about the fallacy compass? Thus, the moment I cleared the instance, I started to snatch this compass. "
Chen Shanshan's eyes widened. She thought of many possibilities but never thought that Mu Huixue would actually snatch a rare prop and suddenly end her fourth floor.
Blood dripped down the pointer of the fallacy compass. The moment the drop of blood fell to the ground, Mu Huixue made a muffled sound. Her face instantly paled, as if something had disappeared from her body.
Mu Huixue threw the fallacy compass to the ground. The small compass showed a parabola and smashed into the ground. Halfway through, it disappeared into the air.
Mu Huixue said, "The circus leader is right. This prop shouldn't be owned by players. It is a bug caused by my ability. Everything now might be the black tower's revenge. "
Chen Shanshan's brain worked quickly. She guessed three or four possibilities but she wasn't sure.
After dealing with the fallacy compass and returning the stolen things to the black tower, Mu Huixue patted her clothes and stood up. She walked in front of Chen Shanshan and smiled. "Okay, now you can kill me at will. I won't resist. "
Chen Shanshan looked up at her and finally couldn't help asking, "… Why me?"
Mu Huixue was slightly stunned, as if she hadn't expected the child to ask this question.
She looked down at the girl who was always calm and terrifying. After a long time, she reached out and gently touched Chen Shanshan's head. "It is because the person I resurrected and later killed by my own hands is really similar to you."
Mu Huixue's face was filled with a helpless and nostalgic smile. Chen Shanshan looked at her and opened her mouth but didn't ask.
After a few seconds, Chen Shanshan calmly said, "Since you have decided to die, I want Brother Tang Mo to kill you."
Mu Huixue thought she heard wrong. "What?"
Chen Shanshan analyzed seriously. "You might have guessed it but Brother Tang's ability is to collect other people's abilities. However, this ability is too heaven-defying. The stronger the ability, the more difficult it is to collect. In fact, if he wants to get your level of ability, the only way is to kill you. " The little girl's innocent face had a very serious expression. She said very bluntly, "Since you have decided to die, it is better to let Brother Tang Mo take your ability."
Mu Huixue, "…"
Mu Huixue bent her fingers and flicked Chen Shanshan's forehead.
The little girl's forehead turned red and she reached out to cover her forehead.
Mu Huixue said with a blank expression, "You are different from her at this point. I'm obviously going to die. Can't you say something nice? Child, you can't be like this. "
Chen Shanshan raised her head and said righteously, "Can I call Brother Tang Mo?"
Mu Huixue, "…"
"Okay, go. I'll wait for you here."
Chen Shanshan replied, "Okay."
Chen Shanshan turned and ran while Mu Huixue watched her back. A moment later, she lay down again and basked in the beautiful moonlight. It seemed that every second she basked in was one second less and she would never see such a scene again in her life.
She didn't know that the short-haired girl clenched her fingers as she ran down the ruins. Her fingernails dug deep into her palms. This girl was so rational that it made one's hair stand on end. Even in the face of life and death, she would not hesitate to make the last use of her and squeeze out all the value of her life. Tears welled up in her eyes.
But the moment before the tears fell, she raised her hand and wiped them away, still looking calm.
Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo had just returned to the ruins of the hill when they met Chen Shanshan.
The little girl looked at Tang Mo with a blank expression and told the other person what happened. Tang Mo was startled and turned to look at Fu Wenduo. The two of them nodded and walked up the hill together. They soon saw Mu Huixue lying on the top of the hill.
Mu Huixue saw that they had come and stood up.
She walked in front of Chen Shanshan, bent her finger again and flicked Chen Shanshan's skull.
Andrei had been hiding in the dark for a long time. When he saw Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo return, he also came out and stood to the side.
Mu Huixue smiled heartily. "Did she tell you everything? In fact, I don't feel anything about dying. I'm not afraid of death and sometimes living doesn't have much meaning. My death might be more valuable. Andrei is right. The third clue given by the black tower is destined to kill me. If you don't do it, Andrei will do it and even I will do it myself. My suicide is a waste and I can't let you get the ability. It is better to use it and let you kill me, Tang Mo. "
Xiao Fu learned the truth from Chen Shanshan's mouth and said, "No, Sister Mu, you really want to …"
The child couldn't say the word. He didn't understand at all. During the day, everyone was attacking the black tower and clearing the game together. How did it suddenly become like this?
Mu Huixue was unexpectedly patient with the child. She crouched down and touched Fu Wensheng's head. "This city is gone." She stroked Fu Wensheng's head and led him to look at the devastated land beneath their feet. "It wasn't sudden. From the moment Andrei and I saw the clue, we understood the meaning of the black tower. We knew that this day would come, but we weren't willing to face it until now, when Beijing disappeared in front of us."
Fu Wensheng gritted his teeth. He wanted to say something but he couldn't say anything.
Fu Wenduo asked, "Is it really necessary?"
Mu Huixue raised an eyebrow and looked at him. "Major Fu, I've already thrown away the fallacy compass and returned it to the black tower. Are you telling me this now?"
Fu Wenduo didn't answer because he wasn't here just now.
Tang Mo also said, "You don't have to be like this now. It isn't the last moment. Maybe there is a turnaround and another way to find the tower. "
"And then watch as hundreds of thousands of people disappear with the Black Tower every day for six days?" Mu Huixue smiled. "Since the black tower gave that clue, it means it is the only way. Today, when Grecia said that the black tower wanted to retaliate against me, I suddenly understood something. "
"Tang Mo, that guy's luck has always been good. Why did he suddenly meet two teammates who went out together? As long as it wasn't one of those two powerful players, or even one of them, he wouldn't die. But he died. Now that I think about it, this isn't the black tower retaliating against him. It is the black tower retaliating against me. "
"Perhaps he isn't the only one who can find the black tower. It is also possible that he is the only one who can attack the black tower."
"So … Tang Mo, kill me."
Tang Mo clenched his fingers and stared at Mu Huixue. After a long time, he took out two silver butterfly knives from his pocket.
Mu Huixue looked at Chen Shanshan and waved at her, showing a bright smile. "In the future, bask in the moon for me. Just now, I said that if you guessed right, I would tell you a secret. I actually don't have a secret. It's just that a long time ago, before I killed the person who looked like you, she said she wanted to return to Earth and see the moon. There is no moon in the world of the returnees, only day. I will now hand the baton to you. You can bask in the moon. "
Chen Shanshan looked calm but she didn't speak.
Mu Huixue smiled. "Yes?"
Chen Shanshan: "… Okay."
At this time, Tang Mo was already in front of Mu Huixue.
Mu Huixue put away her smile and looked at him seriously. "Then let's start …"
She raised her eyes and said firmly, "Tang Mo, kill me and resurrect Bai Ruoyao."
The refreshing female voice was drowned in the evening wind and Mu Huixue's lips curved, revealing a calm and optimistic smile.
Two days ago, the sixth floor of the black tower, Noah's ark.
Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo didn't notice that when they opened their red notes and saw the words on the back, Mu Huixue and Andrei also opened their own papers and saw the words written on them.
There were only three words but these three words were enough to make the two powerful sixth floor players freeze in place and they didn't recover for a long time.
The moment they saw these three words, they suddenly felt extremely ironic.
When Mu Huixue and Andre saw the clue clearly, the piece of paper turned into ashes and disappeared. But those three words were imprinted in their hearts and pierced their eyes. They would never be able to forget them. Those three words were —
Bai Ruoyao
"Today's moonlight is actually very beautiful."
