Chapter 72

In a room at the Banana Pub, the bald man reached out and grabbed the green light that flew towards him. He turned on the green light and saw the mark on the map. Once he saw the position of the monster, the bald man was slightly surprising before opening his mouth to reveal a vicious and cruel smile. "Not far away…"

The pretty teenager looked at the mark on the map and crushed the green light map to pieces. "I'm going to kill Mr. B today!"

The four people quickly rushed out of the Banana Pub towards the poor residential area not far away.

The black tower deliberately chose to launch the Detectives' Contempt at noon for a reason. At this time, the lazy underground people were lying in bed. No matter what these people did on the streets, it wouldn't attract any attention from the underground people. This was a game only for players. As long as they didn't die, the underground people wouldn't take the initiative to eat them.

The bald man didn't change into a brown bear and his speed was the fastest among the four stowaways. A minute later, he reached the slums area. There was a light in his eyes as he stared at the dozens of dilapidated houses in front of him. Suddenly, his eyes focused on a broken house in the innermost part of the slums.

"Over there!"

The four stowaways rushed to the house.

They were just running into the slums when the short-haired woman's heart tightened and she had a bad feeling. At the same time, she avoided the triangular boomerang that flew from behind her. The black boomerang turned in the air and returned to the hands of a long-haired woman. The four stowaways stopped moving and stared at the person.

They saw that from the other road, four people in black was running at a very fast speed. They were fast but were still outside the slums. The long-haired woman threw the boomerang in order to stop the four stowaways from advancing. Once the four member squad came near, a sunny looking young man said with a smile, "Today is the last day. The monster can be stolen together so it isn't a big deal. However, there are only two King's Gold Coins. Whoever is faster will obtain it." The young man continued to run forward and would soon surpass the four stowaways.

The bald man listened to the words and didn't respond. When the young man ran to his side, he smiled coldly and threw a punch at the youth. The smiling young man suddenly smirked and took three steps backwards, avoiding the blow. His smile wasn't as mocking as Bai Ruoyao but at this moment, he was no longer smiling. He stared coldly at the four stowaways.

The long-haired woman who threw the boomerang also stopped. The four member squad stood outside the slums and confronted the bald man's team of four.

The youth asked without hesitation, "The four of you are stowaways?"

The bald man laughed. "So what if we are?"

The bald man roared, his hands falling to the ground as brown fur grew on his face. The girl who threw the boomerang saw it and turned to the youth. She said, "I told you that the game wouldn't end peacefully if there are still stowaways. You were just wandering around, saying that you would take this time to learn more about the Underground Kingdom to help in future games. Now you have dug yourself a hole. Surname Lu, you and I are the only ones who can fight in our team. If I die here, I will haunt you in the underworld!"

The youth surnamed Lu avoided the bald man's attack by moving sideways. He constantly avoided the opponent's offensive. During this time, he thought he could fight back once or twice but his knife couldn't damage the bald man's body. His knife actually curled up from the force! The youth hurriedly said, "An Chu, come over and help!"

The boomerang woman scoffed again. But while her mouth was scolding him, her body was honestly throwing the boomerang to help the youth block the bald man's attack.

Soon, the two teams of four were fighting.

Originally, the youth surnamed Lu was thinking about a fair game. The surviving players might not work together but in the end, they could steal the big monster together. The mission that the black tower gave to the players was to 'steal the monster from Mr. A and Mr. B.' It didn't say that every person had to steal the monster. The only cause of conflict between players was the King's Gold Coin.

There were only two King's Gold Coins and 23 players. However, the coins were just an extra bonus.

While resisting the bald man and beautiful boy's attacks, the young man said, "Wait, just wait. Our team isn't good at fighting and our strength is weak. We just want to win this game and we don't want the King's Gold Coins. Can't you let us go?"

This was the best choice. The youth surnamed Lu knew the weakness of his team. Strictly speaking, this team only consisted of him and An Chu who he grew up with. The other two teammates were just temporary. If conditions permitted it, they would try to grab the King's Gold Coins. If it wasn't possible, they would forget about it and worry about the most important thing.

The bald man heard these words and grinned, revealing sharp teeth. Once transformed into a brown bear, this teeth was as sharp as a beast. He punched a huge stone behind the young man and said, "I can kill you and then get the King's Gold Coins. Is there a problem? There is no problem."

"Damn!"

After the earth went online, the youth called Lu participated in a lot of black tower games and inevitably encountered stowaways. But the bald man was a minority among stowaways. Most stowaways hide their identities in order not to be excluded by their teammates. There were only a few stowaways like the bald man who had a strong power and wanted to kill.

In the four member stowaways squad, the bald man and beautiful teenager were excitedly attacking Lu's team. The middle-aged man assisted with his flying knives. Only the short-haired female who used Checkmate was unhappy. She wasn't crazy about killing people but she wouldn't oppose her teammates. Therefore, she also assisted.

The eight players caused a big fight in the slums.

The underground people who lived in the slums were the lower class and their strength was extremely weak. Once they heard the sounds outside, they pulled down the doors and windows and ignored them.

The bald man punched a wooden hut while his thick thighs swept towards Lu. The latter couldn't avoid it, causing An Chu to wave her boomerang and forcibly smash the bald man's leg. The bald man fell back and An Chu ran away with the youth.

"Chase after them!"

The four stowaways chased the four players.

The eight people ran towards the broken house where the big monster was located. The youth called Lu thought quickly, "If there are another seven players still alive, they should be nearby. They shouldn't all be stowaways. Even if they are stowaways, they will see this situation and join hands with us to first get rid of these four people. Go to that room. As long as we can buy time, someone will come. Cough… what are you doing An Chu?"

The boomerang woman's first hit Lu's head. When passing a tree, she also released the branches so they would hit him. An Chu cried out angrily, "You shouldn't take the intellectual path. What is with your plan? The most important thing right now is to escape. To escape, do you understand? Tell me if your plans have ever been successful!"

The young man couldn't say anything because the boomerang woman's words were all true.  He always wanted to take the road of attacking the tower with his IQ but he never succeeded once. He didn't know what happened but every time, his plan always failed and then he would win the game in a strange manner. There were many reasons why he won the games but none of them were related to his plans.

The four players didn't dare think about stealing the monster. They had to live first before they could consider winning the game.

After the bald man transformed into a brown bear, his speed was greatly reduced. However, the short-haired woman's speed was very fast, faster than An Chu. Once An Chu's group reached her range, the short-haired woman raised her silver pistol and said coldly, "Checkmate!"

Bang!

A silver bullet emerged from the muzzle and aimed directly to the back of Lu's head.

The bullet seemed to have eyes. No matter how much Lu avoided it, the bullet always followed him. Lu's eyes were cold. He threw off the boomerang woman's hand and turned to face the silver bullet. He waved his right hand and a singular silver pointer appeared in it. He said loudly, "3+4=5, this is the Bishop's Theorem."

His action of turning to meet the enemy was too quick and the short-haired woman couldn't react. Once this sentence was completed, a dazzling white light emerged from the pointer in his hand and aimed straight between the short-haired woman's eyebrows. The short-haired woman's eyes narrowed and her brain became dizzy. She fainted and fell backwards.

The bald man ran over and caught her unconscious body. He shook it twice and the short-haired woman woke up.

The bald man asked, "What happened?"

The short-haired woman slowly recovered and gritted her teeth. "I suddenly felt very sleepy. Be careful of that man. He has a hypnotic ability."

The moment that the short-haired woman was speaking, the youth called Lu was frantically fleeing. "I can't hypnotize bullets. An Chu, save me quickly!"

An Chu was also busy as the beautiful teenager's black insects were constantly attacking her. She could only use the boomerang to hit the insects again and again. The silver bullet followed Lu and seemed like it was about to hit his head. An Chu gritted her teeth and slammed her feet. A black boomerang appeared in her hands and she swung it.

Her speed wasn't fast enough but just as the bullet was about to pierce Lu's head, a black playing card shot from the side and firmly fixed the bullet to the ground.

The bullet trembled in the soil before gradually stopping.

On the other side of the slums, four rockets fell from the sky and burned the black swarm besieging An Chu. At the same time, a middle-aged man swung a knife at the countless knives flying towards Lu.

Lu and An Chu had an opportunity to gasp for air. Meanwhile, their two temporary teammates were injured and collapsed to the side. The glasses man came out of the house with his four teammates. They came out of the house where the monster was.

This situation surprised Lu and his eyes were fixed to the man in glasses.

Lin Yi said, "Captain, these four seem to be the last remaining four players in the game. The other players should've been killed by the four stowaways. Should we now act according to your plan?"

Old Li joked, "It isn't Captain's plan. It is Mr. A and Mr. B's plan."

The youth called Lu looked at the glasses man's team of five with shock. The glasses man calmly looked at Lu, An Chu and the four wary stowaways standing not far away. He said, "If we don't take care of these four stowaways, the game can't proceed normally. Thus, we aren't following Mr. B's plan. This is also my plan."

The bald man noticed that things weren't good and turned to run. "Go!" However, he had just spoken when there was a loud bang from his feet.

From the bottom of the man's feet to where the pretty youth was standing further away, something exploded and a pink sky appeared in front of them. Once their spirits recovered, they saw that layers of sticky things were sticking them to the ground, not allowing them to move.

The pink thing was like gum. The bald man had one foot stuck while the middle-aged man and the Checkmate woman also had one foot stuck. The beautiful teenager was miserable as both his feet were stuck. They struggled but failed to pull their feet away from the sticky pink gum.

A laughing voice was heard in the distance. "Strawberry chewing gum that can't be pulled off, you really shouldn't try to pull it off."

The four stowaways immediately looked up. Once they saw the minstrel leaning against the wall, the pretty teenager shouted, "I'm going to kill you!"

[Prop: Strawberry gum that can't be removed.]

[Owner: Tang Mo]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Level: 2]

[Attack: None]

[Function: The gum can't be taken apart and the glued object will be subjected to a force 20 times stronger than their own gravity.]

[Restrictions: Disposable item. It is very, very smelly. Only the user can smell it.]

[Note: When Tang Mo used Mario's stinky hat to obtain this gum, he must be wondering if it is Mario's hat that stinks or this smelly gum. Or maybe Tang Mo is the smelly one. After all, the smell is similar.]

Sticking the stowaways with the gum was just a preparatory plan for Tang Mo. He couldn't guarantee that he could accurately throw the gum at the four people's feet and also cause them to be stuck. Fortunately, he succeeded. However, three of the four stowaways had long-ranged attacks.

The pretty teenager roared angrily and waved his arms, thousands of black insects flying out from his sleeves. The overwhelming swarm of insects attacked Tang Mo. The middle-aged man also threw countless small knives while the short-haired woman raised her pistol and fired three bullets. "Checkmate, Checkmate, Checkmate!"

Bang bang bang!

The three bullets flew towards Tang Mo's head, causing him to constantly dodge. He looked at the glasses man. The man pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and said, "Kill them first."

This was the second goal of the cooperation between Tang Mo and the five member squad.

The most important purpose was to stop this team of five from cooperating with the stowaways. Otherwise, the nine people would be together and Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo would find it too hard to win.  The second purpose was to unite to take care of the four stowaways.

The glasses man raised his hand and the black card stuck in the ground returned to his hands. Brother Hao roared and flew towards the bald man who was stuck in place, unable to move. The two strong men collided while the rest of the players rushed to take care fo the four stowaways.

Brother Hao's ability wasn't very obvious. His body didn't change and he didn't use any weapons. He seemed to have a strength enhancing ability. He rushed to wrestle with the bald man. The bald man couldn't move his right foot so Brother Hao originally had the upper hand. However, Brother Hao soon fell to the ground from a punch, blood spurting from his mouth.

The next moment, the bald man roared towards the sky. The brown fur on his body grew denser and spread. Once his whole body was covered, his limbs lowered to the ground and his face slowly changed. The mouth became convex and the facial features crowded together.

The youth called Lu called out, "Not good!"

The players openly avoided him and even the bald man's three teammates were horrified. They wanted to run away but their feet were glued to the ground.

Soon, the bald man completely transformed into a brown bear. He struck his chest and tried his best to break his right foot away from the force that was 20 times his gravity, eventually pulling his feet from the gum. Once he was free, he looked at Brother Hao lying on the ground and rushed fiercely.

Lin Yi moved at the fastest speed to rescue Brother Hao but his shoulder already had a large piece of flesh removed by the brown bear.

The brown bear roared at Tang Mo who smiled. In order to cope with the short-haired female's three bullets and the beautiful teenager's black insects, he had to use some abilities, many of which could only be used once a day. Tang Mo realized that the current bald man was very dangerous. The danger made him acutely aware that he wasn't a match.

Tang Mo didn't hesitate to turn and flee, the bald man rushed after him.

Lin Yi stepped forward. "Captain, they…"

The glasses man stopped her and spoke with narrowed eyes, "That is a King's Gold Coin."

Lin Yi no longer spoke.

The plan to kill the stowaways didn't stop as the glasses man arranged his teammates to take care of the three stowaways stuck to the ground. He just didn't save Mr. B. He wouldn't lose anything if Mr. B died and he might even be able to snatch the King's Gold Coin from the bald man.

The black insects and silver knives were like heavy rain that bombarded the survivors. The battle here wasn't over when there was a loud bang from the stone house behind the players. The group turned and saw Mr. B running out of the house, the brown bear behind him. When the brown bear flew through the air, a knight wearing strange armour suddenly appeared, blocking the brown bear's paws.

Fu Wenduo hadn't expected this brown bear to be so powerful. After he blocked this attack for Tang Mo, he was thrown back and smashed into a huge stone.

His body armour was smashed open. Fu Wenduo stood up and looked at Tang Mo not far away. He blamed his teammate for not giving him accurate information. "Victor, you said he was very strong but you didn't say it was to this extent." This strength was greater than his.

Tang Mo was unceasingly chased by the bear only to finally get support from Fu Wenduo. He quickly explained, "The last time I saw him, he didn't completely transform into this."

The bald man seemed to have lost his mind after completely turning into a brown bear. His red eyes stared at TAng Mo and Fu Wenduo. He seemed to think for a bit before rushing to Fu Wenduo, aware that he should be more wary of this person. Fu Wenduo dodged the blow and the brown bear caused a big hole in the ground.

The brown bear flew out of the hole and rushed to Fu Wenduo.

One person and one bear constantly changed positions, causing large sounds. A terrible claw descended from the top, throwing Fu Wenduo to the ground. Fu Wenduo dexterously rolled when landing, unloading most of the force. However, his armour had a big hole in the middle. Fu Wenduo stood up and looked at the brown bear panting in the distance.

This was a terrible opponent. Fu Wenduo had appeared in the black tower's broadcast twice, being the first player in China to clear the black tower's first and second floors. This meant that his strength was the top in China but it didn't mean he could easily defeat all players in China. He knew that Tang Mo was mysterious and hiding some things. There was also the leader of the stowaways organization in Beijing. If the two of them fought, his odds of winning were only 70%.

Fu Wenduo looked at the beast and twisted his wrist. Then the silver armour fell from his body. The armour was originally broken into several pieces when fighting the brown bear but hadn't fallen off. Now he easily removed the armour that was in his way and touched the helmet.

Fu Wenduo slowly removed the helmet. Tang Mo was startled as he thought Fu Wenduo was revealing his appearance. Who would've expected that once the helmet was taken off, a grey mask similar to Tang Mo's was covering the lower half of Fu Wenduo's face, only revealing his resolute eyes.

Fu Wenduo wore a long black coat and looked coldly at the brown bear in front of him. His lips curved as he said, "This is more convenient." As he spoke, he waved his right hand and a dark triangular weapon suddenly appeared in place of his hand. The next moment, Fu Wenduo disappeared and reappeared again next to the brown bear's head. He waved the black weapon and stabbed the brown bear's head.

The brown bear fell backwards.

When the black weapon stabbed the brown bear's head, metal sparks flew. Traces of red blood rolled down into the brown bear's eyes. The brown bear gave a monstrous roar. Fu Wenduo didn't underestimate the enemy and directly attacked, not giving the brown bear a chance to react.

The physically strong man constantly attacked the dumb bear from different angles. The bald man was confused by Fu Wenduo's extremely fast speed. Every time he swung his claws, Fu Wenduo had already disappeared. He uttered an angry roar but his skin was too head. Fu Wenduo kept scratching him but didn't really cause any fatal injuries.

Once Fu Wenduo appeared, Tang Mo didn't care about his matters and directly gave the brown bear to him.

Tang Mo believed that Fu Wenduo could certainly cope with the powerful brown bear. He trusted his teammates, turning to attack the pretty teenager who used insects.

The pretty teenager's ability was the toughest among the four stowaways. He wasn't the strongest but his insects were pervasive and hard to guard against. Tang Mo held the big match and waved it in front of him, blocking the insects flying towards him with the big match.

He quickly ran to the glasses man. The two people looked at each other and nodded.

Three black cards were fired from the hands of the glasses man. The black cards were like lightning, flying through the air and smashing every black insect flying towards Tang Mo. Tang Mo rushed to the beautiful teenager. The teenager's face was terrified. He had hid behind his teammates every time he killed and people seldom got close to him. His ability wasn't a melee type. Once Tang Mo got close, he immediately took countermeasures and wrapped himself in a cocoon of black insects.

Tang Mo was quicker. Before this cocoon completely covered him, he waved his right hand and countless flames burned the black insects. The black insects gathered faster than the speed at which Tang Mo burned them. However, Tang Mo's timely reaction meant that just before the thick cocoon completely covered the youth, a small crack was exposed.

A black playing card flew from behind Tang Mo, bypassing his shoulder and flying straight through the small hole.

The next second, the black insects flying around in the slums suddenly stopped moving. They no longer attacked other players, turning to look at the beautiful teenager in the middle of the black insects. The black insects protecting the youth also stopped, turning their bodies and staring at the master that they were protecting.

Then they all rushed forward. From the youth's nose, eyes, ears, mouth… every hole that they found was used for them to enter the youth's body. In fact, this was already a corpse. The glasses man's black player card cut open the beautiful youth's neck. HIs eyes were wide and his face full of horror as he fell to the ground.

The buzzing of the insects were heard from inside his body. 10 seconds later, Tang Mo saw something moving in the teenager's stomach. Tang Mo stepped back as tens of thousands of black insects smashed out of the youth's stomach and escaped his body.

Once they left the body, they seemed to become ordinary insects as they flew in different directions. The teenager's body was just an empty shell as his internal organs were eaten clean by the insects. His brain was eaten and his eyes were gone. He looked like every player who had been eaten by the insects as he stared at the sky with missing eyes.

At the same time, a black boomerang flew through the air and cut off the head of the middle-aged man.

Now the four stowaways only had the bald man and short-haired woman left. After seeing that the situation wasn't right, the short-haired woman gritted her teeth, took out a knife and cut off the foot that was stuck to the gum. She lost a foot so her speed had greatly declined. Yet she still desperately ran.

A giant match moved through the air, hitting her knees and knocking her to the ground. The short-haired woman turned to see Tang Mo.

Her eyes trembled as she saw the letter B above his head. She suddenly shouted to the glasses man and other players not far away, "He is a black tower monster while I am a player. We are on the same side. You aren't dead and I don't want anything to do with you. The three of them wanted to kill you, not me!"

The glasses man didn't speak.

Tang Mo raised the big match and blocked the bullet about to his his head. He smiled and said in a low voice, "Is this your fifth bullet?" Tang Mo remembered that in the Pinocchio game, this woman's hair turned white after shooting the fifth bullet. Unexpectedly, she could fire five bullets with no cost after two months. Her ability had obviously improved.

The fifth bullet embedded in the match head had been sneakily fired by the short-haired woman while fleeing. On one hand, she spoke in order to see if she could get help from the glasses man. On the other hand, she wanted to delay the time and distract Tang Mo so she could sneak attack him.

Unfortunately, Tang Mo still found out.

Tang Mo smiled, "Your hair no longer turns white?"

The short-haired woman was stunned as she seemed to think of something. She looked into Mr. B's familiar eyes and finally understood what she felt when she saw Mr. B on the dock seven days ago. Her eyes ignited with hatred. She forced her right hand to lift the pistol and aimed at Tang Mo's neck. "Check…"

Snap.

Tang Mo directly broke her neck.

On the other side, Fu Wenduo kicked the strong brown bear into the air. The dark 3D pyramid-shaped weapon pierced the heart of the brown bear from bottom to top. Tang Mo's sharp eyes found that this black weapon had a bit of silver and seemed different from before.

Boom!

The bald man's body fell to the ground. Fu Wenduo shook his right hand and the sharp weapon disappeared, returning to its original appearance.

At this point, all four stowaways were killed. On the other side, the youth called Lu found his companions. In his four person squad, two were in generally good shape. One of them had woken up while another had his eyes closed forever. There was a bullet in his chest and he died before he could be saved.

The short-haired woman was wrong. She actually killed someone. Before today, she and her teammates killed more people.

Tang Mo walked towards Fu Wenduo after taking care of the four stowaways.  The players saw that Mr. A had taken off his armour and that he just one-sidedly beat the brown bear. They raised their weapons and stared warily at Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo. The bald man had thick and tough skin yet he was killed by Fu Wenduo. If it was them, they definitely couldn't survive Fu Wenduo.

The youth called Lu looked at the glasses man. 'The two King's Gold Coin, you don't want them?

The glasses man gave him a look. 'Go!'

Lu was a bit surprised but his thoughts were the same as the glasses man. He picked up his other teammate who was still alive and turned to run away with Anchu. The glasses man saw that Tang Mo had killed the short-haired woman and also turned away. The seven players fled.

They had just worked with Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo to kill the four stowaways. Now they ran away without a trace.

They weren't companions but were forced to cooperate for the sake of temporary interests.

Tang Mo's eyes showed a hint of surprise when he saw that the glasses man didn't hesitate to escape. Then he said, "Not good!"

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo reacted at the same time, running into the house. Sure enough, there was nothing in the cage in the middle of the room. The big monster in the cage had been rescued by players while they were killing the four stowaways just now.

Tang Mo looked at the empty cage and his expression changed. Finally, he licked his lips, shook his head and looked at Fu Wenduo next to him. He said with a smile, "Major Fu, I thought you only wore a helmet. Who knew there would be a mask inside?" His preparations were too thorough.

Fu Wenduo asked, "You aren't smiling?"

Tang Mo was stunned before realizing Fu Wenduo's meaning. "That smile was to hide my identity in front of the players."

Fu Wenduo stared at Tang Mo with a meaningful look before speaking vague words, "I would rather have a normal teammate."

The stunned Tang Mo, "…"

Had he become very abnormal in Fu Wenduo's eyes in the last seven days?

Tang Mo no longer spoke. He picked up the cage without any expression and said coldly, "Major Fu, let's go."

Fu Wenduo smiled under the mask and followed.

The sewers of the Underground Kingdom were intricate. They stretched in all directions and were smelly and dirty. Seven players walked through the sewers as quickly as possible. One hour later, they successfully left the capital city and entered a deserted cottage in the suburbs.

The young man surnamed Lu gasped, "I can finally breathe. After half an hour in the sewers, I thought I would die. This.. cough, what are you called? My name is Lu Xing and my friend is An Chu. This is my teammate Andrew, he is a foreigner. Since everyone has cleared the black tower's first floor, it seems that you shouldn't be stowaways. You have abilities so… official players?"

An Chu glanced at him. "Your plans don't succeed and you speak a lot of nonsense."

The glasses man sat down and started speaking, "Mr surname is Luo. These are my teammates, Old Li, Xiao Chen, Xiao Yi and Brother Hao. We are all official players." He concealed information about his team but Lu didn't seem to care.

Once they knew each other, they started relaxing.

An assembly instance wasn't the same as other instances. Most of them participated in the Banana Pub instance last month, where players from the same camp would basically choose to cooperate. It was because cooperation gave them more chances of winning. They wouldn't die if they lost the assembly instance but there would be some punishment. They hadn't seen the other team so it was clear they were in different camps during the Banana Pub instance.

After a break, Lu Xing asked, "Did you not take the King's Gold Coins because Mr. A and Mr. B are too strong?"

The glasses man smiled slightly. This was the first time in seven days that he smiled so confidently. "It is one reason. You saw Mr. A's strength and Mr. B is also very strong. We fought with them the other day so we are well aware of it. But the most important reason that we ran away without gaining the extra prize of the King's Gold Coin is to avoid letting Mr. A and Mr. B find out… the monster had been stolen."

Lu Xing cried out with surprise, "Stolen?"

Xiao Chen said with a smile, "Our captain had long arranged a plan for us to steal the big monster."

Everyone had rested so the glasses man came to the fireplace in front of the cottage with Lu Xing and An Chu. He leaned over and pulled a plank off the ground, revealing a dark hole. "The King's Gold Coins are important but I prefer a conservative plan. Not counting your injured teammate, we have seven people. The probability of us killing Mr. A and Mr. B is less than 20%. If the four stowaways hadn't dead, we would have 11 people and the probability is 70%."

An Chu asked with a strange expression, "If this is the case, why didn't you say anything earlier? We could join hands with the four stowaways to kill Mr. A and Mr. B, gaining the King's Gold Coins. It would also be easy to steal the monster."

The man in the glasses shook his head. "No. The possibility of us killing Mr. A and Mr. B is 70% but all seven of us will die afterwards. Mr. Lu, Miss Ann, the seven of us are definitely not a match for the four stowaways. If the options are to get a King's Gold Coin and die or not get a gold coin and survive, I choose the latter. That's why I chose to cooperate with Mr. B."

Lu Xing asked, "You were working with Mr. B?"

An Chu said, "This is the intellectual path."

They walked to the end of the hole and saw two middle-aged men. Wang Yinggui and Old Niao quickly ran over when the saw the glasses man, excitedly saying, "We stole it! As you said, Mr. A and Mr. B didn't notice us during the melee. Old Niao and I managed to steal the monster."

The glasses man said, "It was hard on you." He stepped forward and tried to pull off the black cloth covering the cage.

Wang Yinggui shrank back. "Old Niao and I were tossed by this monster for three days and three nights. We don't want to see it again."

Lu Xing asked curiously, "You are also players?" How did you get tossed by this monster for three days and three nights?"

Wang Yinggui gulped. He simply said that him and his teammate were caught by Mr. A on the first day and thrown into the cage by Mr. B. Then they were kicked around by the monster for three days and three nights. He still felt fear when he thought about it. "Fortunately, these people saved us or Old Niao and I would really be tortured to death."

The black cloth was lifted and everyone looked at this huge monster.

Wang Yinggui felt depressed. "You disgusting monster!" He kicked the cage fiercely, causing the monster to open its eyes and scream.

After waiting a long time, there were no movements. The glasses man thought, "Now isn't the Strange Circus' Surprise Night. The Surprise Night event starts at 6 p.m. so maybe we have to wait until then before we are judged as successfully stealing the monster."

The group nodded.

Time passed and at 6 in the evening, a clear child's voice was heard in everyone's ears.

They all felt relieved only to hear—

"Ding dong! Players Lu Xing, An Chu, Lin Yi, Luo Ze… Wang Yinggui have failed the instance. They didn't steal the poor monster and the poor monster is about to be dissected. The assembly instance 'Strange Circus' Surprise Night' is crossed out and 'Spooky Circus' Thriller Night' has officially opened. The instance failure penalty: Before 7 p.m., the 10 players must sneak into the Strange Circus and destroy the Surprise Night."

"Ding dong! Players Lu Xing, An Chu, Lin Yi…"

There was a trace of gloating in the black tower's voice as it broadcasted it three times.

Luo Ze's eyes widened with shock. He had no time to care about the name of him and his teammates being directly reported by the black tower, meaning his hiding had no effect. His lips parted and he seemed to want to say something when the voice was heard again.

"Ding dong! Players Fu Wenduo and Tang Mo have successfully cleared the 'Strange Circus' Surprise Night' and have received the 'Free Customized Prop Upgrade Package' as a reward.

The author has something to say:

An Chu: This is the special intelligence path. You don't understand, you don't understand!

Lu Xing: Wow crying out loud.JPG. [Why is the gap between people so big QAQ?!]

Tang Tang and Old Fu: EXM? I thought this was our little theater…???
