Chapter 180

From the beginning, Tang Mo didn't trust Ruan Wangshu.

Common interests were a prerequisite for cooperation but if there was a competitive relationship then this cooperation was thinner than paper. Therefore, on the first day of Xu Yusheng's challenge, Chen Shanshan started to find a true ally. They thought about the Earth survivors and returnees before finally setting their sights on Ning Zheng.

There were four named Earth survivors in Beijing but only two returnees.

It was impossible for Tang Mo to cooperate with Ruan Wangshu but Ning Zheng could work with them.

Three days ago, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo took the opportunity to lay a trap and caught Ning Zheng. Originally, Tang Mo wanted to kill this person directly but Ning Zheng's ability was very weird. Tang Mo had tied him up with the rubber rope. The effect of the rubber rope ability was that tied objects couldn't be unbound for one minute under the effect of causality.

However, Ning Zhengu managed to run away.

Fortunately, Fu Wenduo snatched the red apple from Ning Zheng's hand. Tang Mo checked and found that it was Eve's Reward.

[Prop: Eve's Reward]

[Owner: Ning Zheng]

[Quality: Rare]

[Level: None]

[Attack: None]

[Functions: Hidden]

[Restrictions: The reward can't be destroyed before it is opened.]

[Note: There are many Eve's Rewards but only one Eve.]

Thanks to this apple, Ning Zheng was forced to cooperate with Tang Mo's group. That's how today's situation came about.

Tang Mo didn't expect that after that day, Ruan Wangshu also found Ning Zheng and cooperated with him.

“Threats are always more effective than benefits." Tang Mo's tone was calm.

Ruan Wangshu, "…"

Xu Yusheng, "…"

Ruan Wangshu stared coldly at Tang Mo and then Ning Zheng standing beside him. Ruan Wangshu's voice was cold. "Tang Mo, are you trying to steal her head now?" There was no name but everyone knew he was talking about Xu Yusheng. The next second, Ruan Wangshu's expression didn't change but he started to stir up discord. "What about Ning Zheng?"

Ruan Wangshu pointed to Ning Zheng standing to the side but his eyes were on Tang Mo. "You are teammates but Tian Xuan is different. We are an organization and I am their leader. They will abide by any decision I make. This time, I didn't intend to kill Ning Zheng. I chose to let Lian Yuzheng get Eve's Reward by allowing her to kill Xu Yusheng. However, you and Fu Wenduo are two people… Tang Mo, is Xu Yusheng enough for you?"

Tang Mo asked, "What are you trying to say?"

Ruan Wangshu directly looked at NIng Zheng. "Is Eve's Reward important or is your life important?"

Ning Zheng's eyes narrowed.

The pale teenager looked at Tang Mo again and smiled. "You and Fu Wenduo, have you discussed who will take Xu Yusheng's head and who will take Ning Zheng's head? Xu Yusheng's ability is bizarre but there is a way to defeat it. She is already dead. I'm not going to fight with you and give her a chance to escape. I will stand by and watch you kill Xu Yusheng. Then watch as Fu Wenduo kills Ning Zheng."

Tang Mo's expression sank as he stared coldly at this thin teenager.

Ruan Wangshu's words were more sinister than directly attacking.

His guess also wasn't bad.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo had no intention of letting NIng Zheng go. There were two of them but only one Xu Yusheng. Ning Zheng had always been another target. However, Ruan Wangshu said these words. Ning Zheng was forced to cooperate with Tang Mo but once Ruan Wangshu gave up participation, Ning Zheng's situation would be dangerous.

There was no Ruan Wangshu and Lian Yuzheng, only Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo, Ning Zheng and Xu Yusheng.

It would be very easy if Tang Mo's group wanted to take this opportunity to kill Ning Zheng.

Ning Zheng's expression didn't change but he didn't say anything to refute Ruan Wangshu's words, which was a sign of his attitude.

The three sides stood on the ruined and chaotic elevated road.

Tang Mo was silently as he stared at the black tower in the distance. On the huge black tower, the bloody numbers were counting down the last 20 minutes. There were only 20 minutes left of Eve's Game.  He was very patient and kept counting down the numbers.

The time was almost up and Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng should be in the vicinity.

"I don't intend to kill Ning Zheng.” Tang Mo raised his head. He made a decision in just a few seconds. "Ruan Wangshu, you aren't going to intervene in the matter with Xu Yusheng?"

Ruan Wangshu didn't answer and instead asked Ning Zheng, "Do you believe him?"

Tang Mo interrupted Ruan Wangshu's words. "Xu Yusheng's life, you really won't interfere?" He raised the small parasol and aimed the tip at Xu Yusheng.

Ruan Wangshu was silent for a moment before taking two steps back, conceding a path. His deep eyes stared at Tang Mo as he watched Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo take a step closer to Xu Yusheng. The small girl was leaning against the raised acoustic boards, staring at the two powerful Earth players with a strange smile.

Xu Yusheng's hand was pressed against her chest and her body was already covered in wounds. She looked straight at the approaching Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo before turning her head. "This brat, are you really giving me head to them?"

Ruan Wangshu replied, "I like to sow discord but I don't like to be provoked by others."

"You!"

Xu Yusheng originally intended to incite Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, making the situation more chaotic so that she could escape. She didn't expect Ruan Wangshu to choose not to provoke Tang Mo and Ning Zheng and directly give up on killing her. This caused her plan to collapse.

Tang Mo came up to her and looked at Fu Wenduo. "Me or you?"

Fu Wenduo replied, "You do it."

It took only two seconds for them to speak but it was determined who would get Eve's Reward. Tang Mo said he wouldn't kill Ning Zheng so he wouldn't kill. Xu Yusheng was the only reward they could get.

Tang Mo stared at Fu Wenduo, not saying anything. The next moment, he turned his head and raised the small parasol towards Xu Yusheng. The small parasol was just about to stab Xu Yusheng when something came flying from the distance at a very fast speed.

An unknown foreboding filled Tang Mo's heart. "No!"

Tang Mo moved sideways to avoid it. He just moved to the side when a red ball flew past his head and slammed into the ground. Xu Yusheng moved as she jumped into the air using her right foot, grabbing the dodgeball with both hands. She hugged the dodgeball and laughed at the startled players. "Bunch of idiots, this is my dodgeball game!"

Xu Yusheng smashed the ball towards Ning Zheng.

"You damn Ning Zheng, die for me!"

Ning Zheng was very fast and successfully dodged the ball with his strange ability. However, the ball didn't stop. The small red ball kept flying around the elevated road, so that everyone could only continue to dodge. The speed of the ball was too fast and once the terrain was limited to a very small area, it changed directions very quickly, making it hard for the group to catch it.

Tang Mo's sharp eyes found that Xu Yusheng was also avoiding the ball. His brain worked quickly and he suddenly said, "No, who threw the ball just then?"

Xu Yusheng rolled across the ground and smiled at Tang Mo. "You found it…"

Tang Mo's heart tightened. His hands pressed against the ground and he was aware of a faint vibration in the ground. Tang Mo turned and looked behind him. He saw that more than 30 players were struggling to run this way and his heart became cold. Still, it was too late by the time he discovered it.

Xu Yusheng's eyes were red as she laughed angrily. "You did really well, really well. Ruan Wangshu, Lian Yuzheng, Tang Mo! Fu Wenduo!" She gritted her teeth. "You pigs are unexpected strong. It wasn't a waste for me to use the dodgeball this time. You have already lost. This is my most powerful prop. It is a one-time consumable item. You should be honoured to die under this dodgeball."

Xu Yusheng kicked the dodgeball towards Fu Wenduo.

Fu Wenduo moved sideways and the ball returned to Xu Yusheng.

Li Miaomiao roared, "I will show you honour!" She found that the players running here were strange. "What are those people doing? Why are they running over here? Do they want to do?" As she finished speaking, more of the 30 people had come closer. Li Miaomiao found that these players were running stiffly and their expressions were dull, just like the players who had previously been controlled by Xu Yusheng. She instantly understood. "You can control so many people at the same time?!"

Xu Yusheng laughed wildly.

Yes, the four Earth players on the leaderboards didn't expect that Xu Yusheng could control so many people at once.

The red dodgeball was already beyond Tang Mo's expectations and now Xu Yusheng could control so many people. The two things apart didn't seem that bad. Once they were combined, the situation instantly reversed.

Xu Yusheng shouted, "These are my pigs!"

On the crowded elevated road, Xu Yusheng controlled the players and had them collectively attack the four people. She manipulated the players to attack and even had them block the dodgeball for her.

In this game, personal strength wasn't stronger than collective strength.

Xu Yusheng's side had over 30 teammates and they all attacked Tang Mo's group. Tang Mo could only dodge with no way of fighting back. Tang Mo had originally been planning to send a signal to have Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng appear. Now he couldn't resist and had to think of ways to solve the current problem.

Ruan Wangshu suddenly cried out, "Being hit by the dodgeball won't cause death!"

Tang Mo heard his words and quickly turned to look.

Sure enough, a young man had been hit by the red dodgeball. He was originally controlled by Xu Yusheng and now Xu Yusheng let go of her control. The clarity in the man's eyes returned but he didn't have control of his body for long. His eyes widened as he suddenly squatted and held his head with his hands. Then he started to frog jump.

"What is going on?"

The young man cried out in horror as he jumped away from the elevated road.

The frog jump behaviour wasn't controlled by the player!

Tang Mo realized this. He dodged the ball while watching the player completely jump outside the elevated road. Once the man left the road, he stopped jumping. He wanted to come back but he was locked out by the red barrier and could no longer enter. He hit the red light film angrily but it stayed still.

-Third, those who are hit in other parts by this dodgeball have failed and need to use a frog jump to leave the field in one minute.

Tang Mo quickly said, "Being hit by this ball won't kill you but you will be forced to leave the field in one minute."

Fu Wenduo looked at Tang Mo.

Tang Mo dodged the ball and glanced back.

The two of them wondered in unison, "What is her purpose?"

They soon discovered Xu Yusheng's purpose.

Ruan Wangshu had the worst physical fitness of the four people. Despite his gravity suppression, the area was too chaotic and he was inevitably hit by the ball. Ruan Wangshu crouched down and started jumping off the field. Xu Yusheng discovered this and smiled with surprise. Then she quickly rushed towards Ruan Wangshu.

She manipulated the players so that they would block Lian Yuzheng. She slowed down when using her ability but she was still getting closer to Ruan Wangshu who was frog jumping. Ruan Wangshu couldn't dodge. He held his head with his hands and coldly watched Xu Yusheng approaching. Just as Xu Yusheng raised her knife to slash at Ruan Wangshu, a sharp dart flew past her face.

Xu Yusheng looked up and Fu Wenduo immediately engaged with her.

The knife collided with the dagger and Xu Yusheng took two steps back. By this time, Ruan Wangshu had safely jumped out of the field. He stood outside the red barrier and watched Fu Wenduo and Xu Yusheng fighting with an expressionless face. He turned his head towards Tang Mo and mouthed, 'Thank you.'

Tang Mo's lips curved. "It wasn't to save you. If she killed you then she would've opened Eve's Reward and would no longer need to stay here. She would escape. It will be hard for us to catch her again."

Ruan Wangshu spoke aloud this time. "Thank you."

Tang Mo didn’t answer.

In a one on one fight, Xu Yusheng wasn't Fu Wenduo's opponent. She knew that she had to take the opportunity to have the ball hit Fu Wenduo to get away smoothly. Minutes passed and the strength of the three people remaining far surpassed Xu Yusheng's thoughts. The one who least good at fighting, Tang Mo could still avoid the ball and didn't frog jump off the field.

10 minutes later, Ning Zheng also jumped out of the field. He didn't stop once he left the elevated road. He gave up on the reward and left this dangerous place.

Xu Yusheng became more irritated.

Suddenly, she found a chance. Tang Mo was almost hit by the ball and in order to protect him, Fu Wenduo revealed a gap.

"Now!"

Xu Yusheng controlled a middle-aged player who punched the ball towards Fu Wenduo. Fu Wenduo was directly hit in the chest by the ball. His eyes narrowed and he stared coldly at Xu Yusheng as he started to jump with his hands on his head. Xu Yusheng was pleasantly surprised. There were five minutes left until Eve's Game ended and she could no longer miss this opportunity.

She manipulated 15 players to stop Lian Yuzheng and Tang Mo and rushed towards Fu Wenduo.

On the dark elevated road, a thin girl was seen frantically chasing after a man in black who was frog jumping. Despite the knife getting closer and closer, Fu Wenduo kept calmly jumping off the field. At thsi time, Xu Yusheng became aware of something her. Her knife slashed at Fu Wenduo's head but there was an unexpectedly metallic sound.

Xu Yusheng's eyes slowly widened as she saw Fu Wenduo's head turn a dark colour.

Xu Yusheng was shocked. "My prop is an excellent quality. How can…" Her voice stopped as a pink parasol pierced Xu Yusheng's chest from behind. She lowered her head and saw the parasol tip emerging from her chest. Then she slowly turned and saw Tang Mo gasping, his fingers slightly trembling.

Behind Tang Mo, Lian Yuzheng was tangled up with 15 people.

Xu Yusheng couldn't understand it. "Why…"

Lian Yuzheng wasn't Tang Mo's teammate. Why did she help him block the enemy?

Why was it that she found a gap but they looked long prepared for it?

Blood emerged from Xu Yusheng's mouth as Tang Mo pulled out the small parasol. She covered her chest but the bleeding didn't stop. On the handle of the red parasol, the red gem glowed brightly. Xu Yusheng was seriously injured and near death. She fell to the ground. She could no longer control the players. The players glanced at Tang Mo's group before turning away with fear.

Lian Yuzheng's body was covered with blood. She wiped the blood off her face and stared coldly at the gloomy girl on the ground. "I'd rather have someone take away your reward then have you run away. Thus, you're going to die." After saying this, Lian Yuzheng took the initiative to be hit by the dodgeball and frog jumped off the field, standing together with Ruan Wangshu.

Fu Wenduo also stood on the sidelines, his hands in his pocket as he watched the situation on the elevated road.

Tang Mo waved the small parasol and blood fell to the ground.

Tang Mo stated, "This frog jump thing is too simple for him. I believed in him. Even if he is frog jumping, he can still kill you. As for avoiding that ball, you underestimate the world's best stowaway Fu Wenduo. No matter the situation, he will always been able to avoid that ball."

Xu Yusheng immediately understood. "You did it on purpose!"

Yes, once it was discovered that being hit by the dodgeball wouldn't kill them, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo thought of this countermeasure.

One person deliberately pretended to be hit by the ball while the other person took the opportunity to kill when Xu Yusheng attacked.

Who was the person who should be hit by the ball?

When was the best time?

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo waited patiently until the end when Xu Yusheng became xious.

As for the person who would be hit by the ball, Fu Wenduo was the best option. Before the earth had gone online, frog jumping was the same was walking to Fu Wenduo. These things didn't need verbal communication at all. They understood each other's meaning and cooperated to deceive Xu Yusheng.

Lian Yuzheng's help wasn't in Tang Mo's plan. The thing they planned was for Tang Mo to pull out as much as he could to kill Xu Yusheng. Fu Wenduo would also look for opportunities while frog jumping to kill Xu Yusheng. No matter how killed Xu Yusheng, their plan would be successful.

In the end, Tang Mo won the victory.

In the heart of Beijing, the blood red number counted down to the last minutes.

Xu Yusheng's blood flowed from her chest as she looked at Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo and the others outside the field. She suddenly laughed and blood trickled from the corners of her mouth. Then she smiled and fell to the ground without breathing. At this point, the number on the black tower was counting down to the last 10 seconds.

A clear child's voice was heard.

"Ding dong! The large multiplayer instance 'Schrodinger's Dodgeball' has officially ended.  Player Tang Mo has successfully cleared the game, eliminating 14 opponents and winning 'Schrodinger's…"

"Ding dong! The data is revised. Schrodinger won't give any rewards to the human who loves to play ball."

"All humans who love to play ball are stupid—said Lord Schrodinger."

The rules for this dodgeball game were very strange. There was no punishment for failure and no reward for victory. Tang Mo wasn't too surprised. Once the red barrier disappeared, Tang Mo put away his small parasol and headed towards Fu Wenduo. At this time, the black tower in the distance was showing the number '1'.

Once the last number fell to '0', something red fell from the sky towards Tang Mo's head.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo discovered it at the same time and acted to block it. However, it passed straight through the small parasol and Fu Wenduo's hand towards Tang Mo's head.

Tang Mo felt something in his brain and he slowly raised his eyes to look at Fu Wenduo.

The red apple rolled from Tang Mo's head and fell to the ground.

The voice of the black tower was heard in Tang Mo's ears along with Fu Wenduo's cry of horror.

"Tang Mo!"

"Ding dong! China District 1 official player Tang Mo has successfully opened Eve's Reward."

The next second, countless images and information flooded into Tang Mo's consciousness. He fell back unconscious and Fu Wenduo caught his body. Fu Wenduo instantly picked up Tang Mo and rushed to Li Miaomiao.

Li Miaomiao also reacted. Before the earth went online, she was a doctor. She examined Tang Mo's body and said, "There should be no problem. He just passed out. With his present physical fitness, he wouldn't die from being shot through the head with a bullet, let alone being hit by an apple."

Fu Wenduo calmed down and nodded. "Thank you." He held Tang Mo and left the elevated road.

Fu Wenduo rushed towards the place where he promised to meet Chen Shanshan at the fastest speed. Tang Mo's face lay on Fu Wenduo's chest and he seemed to be in great shock. His expression was ugly and he was short of breath. Fu Wenduo looked down at him, silently held him tighter and walked into a building.

Chapter 181

By the time the dodgeball game had ended, the sky suddenly brightened and the sun had completely emerged from the horizon.

Fu Wenduo found a secluded room in a dark office building. He placed Tang Mo on the bed, determined that the build was safe and went out to find Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng. Five minutes later, the trio returned to the building and Fu Wensheng immediately used his ability to fill a bottle of mineral water.

These days, Fu Wensheng's ability had evolved and he could produce more advanced healing mineral water. However, the mineral water he produced couldn't be stored anymore and the amount produced every day was limited.

Fu Wenduo sat by the bed and raised Tang Mo with one hand. He let Tang Mo lean on his chest while a hand poured mineral water into Tang Mo's mouth.

A long time passed and Tang Mo still didn't wake up. His frown just increased.

Chen Shanshan thought about it. "Major Fu, you said earlier that an apple hit Brother Tang?"

Fu Wenduo took out the apple.

Chen Shanshan pulled an identical apple from her pocket.

"This apple is the same as Ning Zheng's." She wiped the apple three times and it showed a line of golden characters. Chen Shanshan stated, "This is Eve's Reward. Brother Tang killed Xu Yusheng and got her Eve's Reward. However, Ning Zheng's apple isn't in an open state while Brother Tang's apple has opened."

Fu Wensheng asked, "Is Brother Tang unconscious because of Eve's Reward?"

There was this type of reward?

The person who got the reward was unconscious. What if he didn't get it and managed to run away?

Fu Wensheng felt this answer was too unbelievable but it was the only explanation.

Chen Shanshan said, "If this is really due to Eve's Reward then there shouldn't be a problem. Brother Tang will wake up sooner or later. The black tower gives rewards, not punishments."

Fu Wenduo took a closer look at Tang Mo's body. As a special soldier, he had excellent field medical skills. He removed his ear from Tang Mo's chest and accepted Chen Shanshan's speculation. Tang Mo being unconscious might be a good thing if he was receiving Eve's Reward. The group didn't think too much and patiently waited for him to wake up.

Chen Shanshan opened her mouth. "At the time, I was hiding far away with Xiao Fu. I didn't see clearly what happened on the elevated road. Major Fu, can you tell us the details?"

Fu Wenduo nodded and told then what had happened. His voice was low and the speed of his speech wasn't urgent. He used the simplest words to explain and his sentences were short. He was clearly accustomed to giving explanations in the simplest manner. As he spoke, he opened Tang Mo's coat and used the mineral water on his wounds.

Tang Mo hadn't suffered much injuries. He had two on his chest and three on his arms. Fu Wenduo's injuries were more serious. Xiao Fu took the mineral water to help clean his brother's wounds. The child's hand touched a knife wound on Fu Wenduo's back where the bones were visible and Fu Wenduo stiffened.

Xiao Fu asked, "Ah, did it hurt?"

"No."

The child cleaned the wound with greater care.

Fu Wenduo had actually remembered a long time ago when he and Tang Mo were still in Shanghai. Tang Mo once helped him clean an injury in the infirmary of the Attack organization. At the time, the two of them had just met and they weren't familiar with each other. Fu Wenduo stared at Tang Mo's pale face as he thought this and he slowly frowned.

…Tang Mo seemed very uncomfortable.

Fu Wenduo guessed correctly.

Tang Mo never had such a terrible nightmare before. He said nightmare but it was more like he was a ghost. He could clearly hear Fu Wenduo and Chen Shanshan's conversation and could even feel the temperature of Fu Wenduo's fingers as his wounds were cleaned. However, Tang Mo couldn't open his eyes, speak or move.

Countless information and images rushed into his brain. Despite Tang Mo's current physical fitness, he felt like his brain would explode from the huge amount of information. Yet he couldn't say what he was seeing or what the information pouring into his brain was about.

There was a wonderful feeling.

Outside the building, the sky was gloomy as the first thunderstorm of the year started in Beijing.

Thunder roared and a heavy rain poured down.

There was the sound of water droplets splashing onto the ground, the subtle sensation as nitrogen and oxygen reacted in the air. Everything made up a subtle world and it was like there was a bowstring that could be moved in the air. Tang Mo couldn't touch it but he clearly felt it was there. The bowstring spanned the length of all coordinates.

One dimensional, two dimensional, three dimensional, four dimensional…

What was four dimensional?

No, maybe it wasn't four dimensional. There was something else.

The strong and vigorous vitality of the four people shone in the building. In the building, the person with the most dazzling vitality was sitting next to Tang Mo. In Fu Wenduo's body, thousands of cells were shining like the sun, incomparably brilliant. Tang Mo could also hear the sound of decay in every cell of his body, cracking and polymerizing. Life was warm and strong, with every cell thriving and evolving towards an unknown direction.

What else…

What else!

Tang Mo was like a thirsty sponge, frantically wanting to know the truth hidden in this wonderful feeling.

Among bolt of lightning struck in the sky, brightening the room. After the dodgeball game, Fu Wenduo felt a bit of fatigue. He sat on the ground beside the bed and closed his eyes. Then he seemingly became aware of Tang Mo's movements and looked at the young man lying in the bed. Tang Mo didn't move.

Fu Wenduo raised his eyebrows. He quietly reached out a hand and hooked a finger around Tang Mo's fingers. Then he moved his finger again and played a bit with the back of Tang Mo's hand. The unconscious youth didn't respond. Fu Wenduo stared up at the ceilings, their fingers locked together.

The two children went out to gather information. Fu Wenduo leaned against the bed, fingers still intertwined as he closed his eyes.

On the land of China, four people fell into a coma and haven't woken up. The first person, Jack had been unconscious for six days. The last person, Tang Mo had only been unconscious for a few minutes.

China, east of the Gurbantunggut Desert.

Yellow sand covered the sky and there was a wind storm.

In the vast expanse of the desert, a small black dot appeared at the junction of the sky and desert. The small dot became bigger as it got closer. Suddenly, his right foot sank into the ground. He actually encountered a quicksand. The bear-like man bowed his head silently and looked at his right foot stuck in the quicksand. Soon, his left foot was stuck as well and he quickly sank.

Then in a flash, the strong man suddenly jumped into the air and magically escaped from this terrible quicksand. He didn't react in any way and kept moving forward.

Once he completely left the desert, he lifted dark, dull eyes and saw a blue sign along the road that read, 'Welcome to Shizenze City.'

Andrei stared at it for a moment before pulling a brick-like dictionary from the heavy bag he was carrying. He looked up some words inside and whispered in bizarre Chinese pronunciation, "…Shihezi?" He put the dictionary away and strode into the city. The moment he entered, more than 10 pairs of eyes stared in his direction.

The big Russian man seemed to have the same thickness as his appearance. He walked quietly like he didn't know his strange face would attract everyone's attention. He moved along the concrete road towards a commissary on one side.

The moment he entered, two short men jumped out from the small building to the side. The two men glanced at each other and silently followed with their weapons.

There were two dull crashes. 10 seconds later, Andrei emerged from the commissary and licked his cracked lips. He thought about it and walked back into the commissary.

In the dim building, two men were rolling around painfully on the ground. They saw the demon had come back and retreated, begging for mercy.

Andrei was silent for a moment before using his strange pronunciation to say, "Mu Hui Xue."

The two men were stunned as they realized this bear-like man hadn't come back to kill them. The two of them glanced at each other and decided to wait and see.

Andrei said it again, "Mu Hui Xue, China, home. Lo… looking for her."

The trio faced each other. Andrei said it a few more times and a flat-headed man suddenly understood. "Wait, do you mean Mu Huixue?"

Andrei nodded. "Mu Hui Xue."

The flat-headed man asked, "You want to find Mu Huixue?"

"Find, Mu Hui Xue."

"Mu Huixue isn't here. Big… Big brother, Mu Huixue is in China District 3. I heard people say that District 3 is likely to be Guangzhou, Shenzhen or perhaps the Yangtze River Delta? In any case, she definitely isn't in our Xinjiang.  You have found the wrong place…"

Andrei didn't speak Chinese and couldn't understand Chinese. The man said a lot but Andrei only understood 'Mu Huixue.' He didn't speak. After a moment, the two men thought he was just looking for someone and didn't want to kill them. Then Andrei punched the wall behind them. The whole place trembled and collapsed.

The two men stared in horror before an even more shocking scene appeared. Andrei raised one hand and held up the collapsed beam.

He held up thick concrete with one hand!

The two men were so scared they couldn't say a word.

The man held the weight of the building like it was an umbrella and opened his mouth again.  "Mu Hui Xue, find her."

The two men, "…"

Andrei raised his head, "Home, find her."

"…"

Did he only know how to say these words in Chinese?

Seven days later, Beijing, Chaoyang District.

Tang Mo slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling above his head. His eyes had no focus until a few seconds later. The moment he woke up, Fu Wenduo also opened his eyes and turned to look. For a moment, Fu Wenduo felt that the young man in front of him had a mysterious atmosphere. Then Tang Mo returned to normal, looking slightly tired.

The two of them watched each other and understood the meaning of both sides without words.

Fu Wenduo handed over a packet of biscuits. Tang Mo ate two to recover his strength and drank water.

Fu Wenduo got straight to the point. "What is Eve's Reward?"

Tang Mo put down the water and looked up at him.

For Fu Wenduo, Tang Mo had been conscious for seven days. For Tang Mo, he could hear the movements around him and also knew that Fu Wenduo had held his hand. However, once Tang Mo opened his eyes, the man looked very stoic, as if he hadn't been sneaking touches in the past few days.

Tang Mo leaned against the wall and sat cross-legged on the bed. He raised his head and watched Fu Wenduo. After a long moment, he suddenly asked, "You secretly liked me first, right?"

Fu Wenduo was startled.

Tang Mo looked up. "I figured it out. I probably knew the answer that night, Victor. You lost." His voice stopped before continuing. "Oh, this matter isn't important. Let's put it aside for now. You asked me about Eve's Reward… in fact I don't know. I don't know what it was but I seemed to have a long dream while I was in the coma. However, I forgot all about it the moment I woke up."

Fu Wenduo, "…"

Tang Mo wondered, "…You look a bit strange? What happened?"

Fu Wenduo, "…"

You tell me what happened?!!!

The author has something to say:

Andrei: Only two sentences in Chinese, I am very proud!

Tang Tang: ???  Is this important?

Old Fu: …#Today is also tiring# #Old Fu still doesn't know that his sneaky touches were discovered#
