Chapter 18: What the hell is a reserve? I'll draw a circle and curse you!

Li Wen followed the teacher-like man, striding into the janitor's office. Behind him, there were four junior high school students.

Tang Mo loosened his clasped hands on the little fat man, who ran behind the teacher in a huff.

Li Wen said, "But you're finally here. After today's tower attack game, I opened my eyes and found myself thrown on the street. When we entered the game, we had only gotten to the junction of Putuo and Changning districts, but I actually woke up in Jing'an district. I thought about it and decided to go to Shibei Li first, maybe I can wait for you."

Tang Mo glanced at the teachers and students who were still guarding him, and then looked at Li Wen: "What time did you arrive?"

"About seven o'clock. This is my alma mater, I know the way." Li Wen realized that the teacher and the other students hadn't said anything, and hurriedly introduced them, "Teacher Li, this is Tang Mo, the person I mentioned before is him, he's not a bad person, and he's not a stowaway, so don't worry."

Mr. Li shielded his students behind him and looked at Tang Mo warily, "Li Wen said you're here to look for someone? Who are you looking for?"

Tang Mo raised an eyebrow when she heard Li Wen explain that she was not a stowaway.

"I'm looking for Chen Shanshan, she should be in her first year."

"Ah, Shanshan?"

"Looking for Shanshan?"

Tang Mo is feeling strange, but saw a one meter six short-haired little girl walked out from among the students, no expression on her face, coldly looked at Tang Mo , said: "I am Chen Shanshan. the city of Beili Junior year I am the only one called this name, what do you want to find me, what is the purpose?"

I can't believe it's such a coincidence?

Li Wen was also surprised, "I didn't realize you were looking for Shanshan. If you had told me the name, I would have found her long ago."

Tang Mo looked down at this very calm little girl and said, "Your father and I are friends. Your father's name is Chen Fangzhi, I work in the Suzhou Library, and he often visits me to read books. He asked me to come to Shanghai for him to see you, to make sure you are safe."

"My father did call this. Do you have proof that you knew him?"

"Shanshan?" Li Wen and Mr. Li both frowned. Li Wen had always trusted Tang Mo and had no doubts about him. Teacher Li also felt that Tang Mo was trustworthy after hearing his words. But Shanshan still doubted him?

Tang Mo smiled, looking at the little girl with a hint of seriousness in his gaze, "Your father is about one meter seventy-five and has been unemployed for almost a year. He told me that his father, your grandfather, was a doctor, and that he himself was a fanatical religious person. By the way, your dad seems to have been wearing a string of red agate stone bracelets on his wrist." After a pause, Tang Mo laughed, "That only proves that I did know your father, but it still doesn't prove that I came to you only to fulfill his wish and had no other intentions."

"Is it a wish of the heart, or ...... a last wish?"

The smile on Tang Mo's lips faded and he stopped smiling, "It's a last wish."

The young girl's expression loosened for a split second and she jerked around, back into the middle of the students, "I believe you now."

Li Wen breathed a sigh of relief: "What's the point of making it so complicated? As I said before, I met Tang Mo on the highway from Suzhou to Shanghai. If he was really a bad guy, he wouldn't have to come all the way to another city to hurt a junior high student he didn't know. Isn't Suzhou enough for him? He really isn't a stowaway."

Tang Mo: "So what happened?"

Mr. Li: "This is not the place to talk. Zhao Ziang, you and Liu Chen work hard to recover the trap. We'll go inside to talk."

The little fat man named Zhao Ziang nodded and stayed at the entrance of the school with another tall boy to recover from the deep pit trap that had just been touched by the broken glass. Tang Mo followed Mr. Li inside the school.

Walking under the tall cedar tree, Mr. Lee explained, "I'm sorry, we're really afraid you're a bad person, a stowaway. We don't dare to take the slightest risk. This is the most dangerous time right now, and you happened to come to the school at this time, so it's hard for us to determine your identity. It's better to kill the wrong person than to let one in."

Tang Mo nods, "Late at night between 11:00 and 2:00 a.m., the time of a person's deep sleep, this time is indeed the most dangerous time of the day, and if someone wants to sneak in an attack most likely to choose this time."

A middle schooler interjected, "You and Shanshan say the same thing eh."

Tang Mo glanced at the small, short-haired girl in the center of the student body.

In addition to the two boys and Chen Shanshan who stayed at the school gate, there was a girl and a little boy who walked into the school with them. Chen Shanshan kept her head down and didn't say anything, while the boy and the other girl kept comforting her. In any case, Tang Mo had just told Chen Shanshan that her father was dead. Although the little girl didn't cry, she was still too young to completely hide her sadness.

Teacher Li sighed, "You're right, we do worry that someone will take advantage of the darkness to feel into the school to sneak in and even kill people. Our city's Northern Science students and teachers combined total more than a thousand people, and that day after the Dark Tower said the game had officially begun, most of our school disappeared, leaving only two teachers and sixteen students."

Tang Mo asked, "Where are the others?"

Mr. Lee's voice was dry, "They're right here."

The crowd had made their way to the gym, and as Mr. Lee pushed his way in, Tang Mo looked up, his gaze momentarily stalled.

On the floor of the corridor of the gymnasium, there were six corpses neatly laid out, with someone covering their faces with a jacket. Three of the corpses were short and skinny, and it was obvious at a glance that they were children, and three others were over one meter seven. They were lying peacefully on the cold tiles, and the moonlight shone in through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the end of the corridor, chilling the bones.

Teacher Li's voice was a bit hoarse: "We have too many students, and there are only two teachers. With sixteen students, all living in different places, near and far, it's impossible to send them each home. After the game officially started the morning before yesterday, Teacher Wang and I decided to wait for their parents to come and pick up their children in peace at the school. If their parents didn't disappear, I was sure that they would come to pick up their children, and we might miss them instead of sending them home blindly. If they disappeared, then we would go through it together and get through it. In the end, five parents came to pick up their children, and there were eleven children who had no parents to pick them up."

Tang Mo looked at the six bodies on the ground and squeezed his fingers. He turned his head, "How did they die?" It was obvious that it wasn't wiped out by the Black Tower, there was a child whose body was covered with knife marks, it was hacked to death with a knife.

Mr. Li instantly reddened his eyes and said angrily, "It's those stowaways!"

Li Wen also shared the same sentiment: "Tang Mo, all of us were teleported into the Black Tower during the day today to participate in the tower attack game, and the teachers and students from the city's Beiliili are no exception. At the end of the game only two kids didn't make it back, nine kids came back, and that teacher Wang. Three of the children were transported to the same game, that game has a total of six players, in addition to them, there are three adults. Of the three adults, there were two stowaways! Those three kids were just ordinary preppers, they were just trying to survive in the game, but to their surprise, one of them accidentally completed a side quest and was rewarded with a big match."

Tang Mo was shocked, "Big matches?!"

Li Wen nodded, "Yes, exactly like your big match."

Mr. Lee gave the students a sign, and the tall boy walked over to the equipment room in the gym and pulled out a giant match. A huge red match head with a familiar wooden match stem. Tang Mo took the match and observed it, "It does look exactly like my match. That kid has seen Mosaic? He completed the mission issued by Mosaic?"

Li Wen shook his head, "I don't know. The boy is dead, just lying there."

Tang Mo collects Qian Sankun's power "I'm just a piece of spirit field away from the protagonist", which is limited to one-time use, i.e. he can only take the same inanimate object into his body. Tang Mo takes a large match and realizes that he can take it into his body at any time and turn it into a tattoo again. But he didn't do that and returned the big match to the little boy.

When the boy took the big match, his eyes reddened and a tear fell, which he quickly wiped away: "This match belonged to Wang Chao, and all three of them are dead, killed by the stowaways. Wang Chao told me before he died that when he got this big match, one of the stowaways forced him to hand it over, and the stowaway could see that it must be a treasure. If he had wanted it, Wang Chao would have given it to him. Wang Chao was very timid, and we used to joke that he was more timid than a girl. But ...... but ......"

The boy choked with sadness, "But in the game, before Wang Chao had a chance to make a choice, the monster said it had found the stowaways, and it was going to eat them. If they don't give up the stowaways, it will eat Wang Chao and the others one by one."

Li Wen: "Like us, they faced this scenario. But of the three adults, two of them were stowaways. The two of them decided to hand over the children first, and the last adult didn't know how to react, but the monster decided to start eating the three children. The kid, Wang Chao, was scared so he pointed out that one of the adults was a stowaway. The monster said the adult had more meat, so it twisted its head to eat the other one, which turned out to be a real stowaway ......"

Tang Mo: "Coincidence?"

"Yeah, those three kids were so scared, they just didn't want to get eaten, so they just pointed to a random guy. That guy had been talking about handing Wang Chao over before, that's why Wang Chao pointed him out. I didn't expect to actually point to the right person."

"The creature ate the stowaway?"

Mr. Li gritted his teeth, "Why didn't it eat the stowaway! Wang Chao said that the monster had only eaten one of the stowaway's arms when the tower attack game suddenly ended. All six of them left the game without dying. We thought that was the end of the matter and were ready to celebrate that we had all survived the Black Tower game, but we didn't expect that the two stowaways recognized the uniform of our city, Beili, and came half an hour later to attack the school. They got three more stowaways, five in all, to attack the group of kids!"

The boy's eyes reddened: "They said they were going to kill Wang Chao and asked us to hand over the big matches. At first we were reluctant to give up the big match, it was a reward for Wang Chao's own efforts, why should we give it to them. But the five of them had special powers and were so powerful that they killed one of us. We decided to give them the big match, but they didn't want it. The stowaway with the broken arm said ...... that he wanted Wang Chao to pay for his arm! There was no way we were going to say yes, they attacked twice in all, we killed two of the stowaways, but Wang Chao and them ...... and Mr. Wang ...... Wang Chao were all dead ...... "

Mr. Lee took Tang Mo to the gym's restroom, where two bodies lay on the floor.

Apart from Chen Shanshan, the two junior high school students turned red as soon as they saw the two corpses and pounced on them and kept stomping on their faces.

Teacher Li said, "The matter now is no longer as simple as giving or not giving matches. They died two people, we died so many children, and Mr. Wang ...... where will we rest until we kill them!"

"Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

Such hateful words were very harsh coming from the mouths of two children.

Tang Mo doesn't want to comfort these two children and persuade them to let go of their hatred.

Now that the world is no longer the peaceful world it once was, no one can protect these children forever, and the only one who can protect them is themselves. This world is too cruel, fifteen years old is not young anymore, maybe it should learn to grow up earlier.

There have always been evil people like that in the world, and in many places the war never stopped. It's just that in the past, China was so peaceful that there were many people who sacrificed themselves to protect everyone. Now that the evil people have extended their claws and teeth, the only thing that can be done is to eradicate the evil people and protect themselves.

Tang Mo felt the anger he had felt for so long, he took a deep breath and regained his composure. He glanced at the clock on the gym wall. "It is now three in the morning. There were five stowaways in total, you killed two and there are three left. If they're smart enough, they shouldn't sneak up on the school again tonight. But for security, you still need to post someone to guard the entrance. "

Teacher Li said, "Of the six of us left, Qiao Feifei and Zhao Ziang are full-fledged players, both of them possessing psychic abilities and better stamina than us reserves. Zhao Ziang is now guarding the entrance."

Tang Mo : "Y'all know what a full-fledged player is and what a reserve and a stowaway are?" He thought only Big Mole had said that.

Chen Shanshan, who hadn't said anything, opened his mouth and said, "Today, the thirteen of us entered a total of six different games, the games were different, but there was one thing in common, the Black Tower monsters in these six games all informed the players of the three types of player identities, however, they didn't explain what these three types of identities meant, and it was only when Brother Li Wen told us that we understood the meaning of these three types of identities. It was only when Brother Li Wen told us that we understood the meaning of these three identities. Of course, before today we actually knew that there were two identities: full player and reserve."

"How do you know?" Tang Mo was surprised.

Another little girl who had been hiding in the back stepped forward, "It's me. I'm a full-fledged player, and my powers aren't as useful as Zhao Ziang's, I can only see people's identities."

Tang Mo froze, "You can tell who someone is?"

The little girl nodded, "Yes. In my eyes, there were words hovering above everyone's head. After the game officially started, I saw the words 'Official Player' hovering above Zhao Ziang's head, and the words 'Reservist' above Mr. Li, Shanshan and their heads. However, I can only use my powers five times a day, and I can only see the identities of five people. After seeing five people, the words above the heads of the others will turn into a mosaic."

Tang Mo said, "So you weren't able to tell who I was just now at the school gates?"

The little girl shook her head, "It's so strange, I obviously haven't used my powers today, but I can't see you. The top of your head is also a mosaic."

Tang Mo thought for a moment, "Do you need any triggers for this ability of yours?"

"No, I can see it straight away."

Tang Mo : "You touch my hand and see if you can trigger the powers."

The little girl walked up and touched Tang Mo's hand as she looked up again, "Ah! Saw it! Official player! How strange, why couldn't I see it just now, only after I touched your hand? I saw it straight away when I looked at Zhao Ziang, and when I looked at those stowaways."

Tang Mo can't explain this answer either.

The boy in charge of re-building the trap with Little Fatty came back, "Teacher, we've finished building the trap. Zhao Ziang said he'd continue to watch at the door and told me to come back and sleep first."

"Both full-fledged players and stowaways are bound to have psychic abilities, and it's clear that both are in much better physical condition than the reserves." Chen Shanshan suddenly spoke up, and while the crowd looked to her, she looked to Tang Mo : "Can you tell ...... what your psychic ability is? We can understand if you don't want to go into detail, but I would like to know if you would like to stay and help us. Are your powers the same as Feifei's, with no real combat ability, or are they the same as Zhao Ziang's, favoring attacks?"

Tang Mo looked steadily at the little girl for a long time before he said, "My powers aren't exactly offensive, but I'll stay."

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

The east is both bright and the morning light is faint.

Daylight is gradually brightening, Mr. Li and the children have been tense nerves are finally relaxed.

Mr. Lee: "They shouldn't attack during the day. I think we should be able to get a good night's sleep during the day. I'll go call Zhao Ziang back, he hasn't slept all night and deserves a good rest."

Tang Mo walks down the hallway of the gym and looks at the six bodies. He looked over them one by one, his face expressionless, but he walked slowly.

"How did you become an official player?"

Tang Mo looks up as Chen Shanshan walks out of the gym and leans against the wall to look at him.

Tang Mo was silent for a moment, "On the third day that Earth came online, I participated in a Black Tower game and won. It was a 1V1 game against another gamer who was your father."

Chen Shanshan's body tensed, but quickly relaxed, "You don't have to feel guilty."

"I don't feel guilty."

Chen Shanshan, look at him.

Tang Mo : "It was your father who pulled me into that game. Although I might have disappeared without the game, I have now fulfilled his last wish and confirmed your safety. Either I disappeared or he disappeared in that game, and I have felt guilty about that, but now that I see that you are still alive, I won't feel guilty anymore, and I don't think your father will blame me either."

Chen Shanshan looked at him for a while and smiled. "You're such a strange person."

The little girl is a head shorter than Tang Mo, but her words are very mature.

Tang Mo thought to herself, "You're very smart."

"My grades were always in the top ten of the year, I won the first prize in the Olympiad, the first prize in the computer national competition, and often represented the school in various academic competitions." Chen Shanshan said, "But after Earth came online, the preppers' physical fitness has improved, and I seem to be a little smarter. Like do you know how preppers are actually created?"

Tang Mo's eyes narrowed, "I don't know."

Full players are those who have participated in a winning game of Black Tower during those three days, and stowaways are those who have killed someone during those three days.

What about the reserves?

"When the game officially started, there were eighteen people in our school. Among them, only Zhao Ziang and Qiao Feifei are full-fledged players, while the other sixteen are all reservists. I questioned them in detail about their experiences during these three days and found common ground."

Tang Mo hasn't met that many people, so he simply doesn't have the capital to explore the conditions under which preppers arise. Chen Shanshan knows a lot of preppers, and she has had the opportunity to explore why, but it's amazing that she thought to do it and seems to have found the answer.

"Including me, all sixteen of these people have played and won games in three days. It was either the Black Tower game, or very ordinary games, including computer games, cell phone games, and real games. Among them, Mr. Li was the most special, he hadn't played any games, but he had once won a bet with a teacher, and he survived."

Tang Mo frowned, "It's not that simple. If it's just a matter of winning a game, there are definitely more than four hundred million humans who have played the game over the course of three days."

Chen Shanshan nodded, "Yes, it is certainly not that simple. Take me for example, I have won and lost games in those three days, I survived and the students who won against me did not. Upon further questioning, I found that the students who survived had all been admitted by their opponents themselves at one time or another - 'I was eliminated'."

Tang Mo is surprised, "Admitting to being eliminated in person?"

"That's right, personally admitted to being eliminated. The Black Tower made an announcement on the 15th, notifying the world that Earth was online and that it was telling humanity that it was going to eliminate players. No one knew how to eliminate players, but it said this, and a lot of people took it to heart. Playing the game normally, one might say 'I lost', but one wouldn't normally say 'I've been eliminated'. Precisely because there was a black tower that said the word 'eliminated' ahead of time, many people had this extra realization in their hearts. Sometimes it might be a joke, sometimes it might be a casual remark that comes out."

Tang Mo never thought it would be that simple.

Chen Shanshan leaned against the wall, "But that might just be one way to become a preppie. Out of our sixteen preppers, there are two students who haven't been personally recognized as 'eliminated', but they too have become preppers. The sample is so small that I can only analyze so much."

"You're already very good." Tang Mo rarely compliments people.

Chen Shanshan lowered her head and looked at the six corpses on the ground, which included her teachers and her classmates. Perhaps she didn't recognize any of these six people, but she had seen them die in front of her eyes.

"They should sneak in this evening."

Tang Mo : "Well, it should be tonight."

"I want to kill them and live."

Trying to kill them first, then trying to live.

Tang Mo looked seriously at the short little girl and nodded, "Good, kill them and live again."

Chen Shanshan was called by Teacher Li to help, Li Wen came over to her: "You came at a bad time today, just at the most dangerous time of the night. Chen Shanshan, this little girl is especially smart, she asked us to not only set a trap by the gate of the janitor's room, but also use a very thin wire to stop in front of the iron fence gate. Anytime you tried to enter the door, you fell into the trap anyway. Luckily you came in by crashing through the glass of the janitor's room, otherwise you would have definitely fallen into the trap. Eh yes, how did you know there was a trap?"

"I found a map of Shanghai from a newsstand that had the location of Shibei Middle School marked on it, as well as marking its area, which is quite large."

Li Wen didn't quite understand, "My alma mater is one of the four most prestigious schools in Shanghai, and it does cover a lot of ground. But what's wrong with it?"

Tang Mo looked at him, "Middle schools are not elementary schools, and most middle schools, have kiosks on campus. Big schools like yours may even have a campus supermarket. It's only been two days since the start of the game, and with a supermarket in the school, it's unlikely that the students will be short of water and food. I intentionally told that little fatty that I was going to give him water and food, and if he didn't want it, that would be normal. But the fact that he actually asked for it means that there must be a trick."

Fatty Zhao Ziang walked into the gym and scratched his head, "Ah, I was trying to trick you into a trap, but in the end you were the one who tricked me?"

Tang Mo : "You're still young, in the future when you lie to someone you should think ahead to see if there are any loopholes."

The little fat man nodded confusedly.

Li Wen joked, "You actually taught a junior how to cheat."

Tang Mo shrugged and looked over at Little Fatty, "I heard Chen Shanshan say that your powers are offensive, can you tell me exactly what they are like? Did you make those nails I encountered on the road?"

Zhao Ziang sat down and honestly said, "Yes, it's my psychic ability. Qiao Feifei and I are official players. Don't look at Qiao Feifei, she is so short and skinny, but our physical strength and energy are better than Mr. Li's. Qiao Feifei is a girl. Qiao Feifei is a girl, so I volunteered to keep watch in the janitor's room to prevent the bad guys from sneaking in at night. Chen Shanshan said that between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m., the bad guys are most likely to attack. You happened to be here at that time, so I assumed you were the bad guy and went after you." He rubbed the back of his head, "I'm sorry for almost harming you."

"It's okay, if you can harm me that's what you can do." Tang Mo was more concerned, "Did you break those streetlights?"

Fatty nodded, "Yeah, Shanshan made me break it. She said that the ground was full of broken glass so that it would make a sound if someone approached. I have good hearing after I became a full-fledged player, and I can hear it from a long way away whenever someone steps on that glass."

"What are your powers?"

"Sort of spatial movement? I'm not sure. I can move objects to any location within a hundred meter radius. But my powers aren't strong enough, I can't move heavy things. If it's to move a knife, my moving speed will become very slow, something like that."

Tang Mo saw a knife wobbling and flying off the ground and floating to him, where he grabbed it.

Zhao Ziang red-faced, "That's it, it's especially slow and can't attack anyone at all. But if it is a nail, needle kind of very light and small things ......"

Whoosh!

A small thumb length sharp needle instantly appeared in front of Tang Mo, he quickly skimmed his head, the fine needle only hanging in front of his eyes, did not move forward. With Tang Mo's current dynamic vision, he could see the path of the needle, but only on the basis of some defense. If there is no defense, he is afraid that it is difficult to avoid this needle.

Zhao Ziang was surprised to see Tang Mo's quick dodge, "Your reaction speed is so fast, faster than both Qiao Feifei and I."

Tang Mo reaches out and squeezes the pin, "Is that why you keep attacking people with nails and pins?"

Zhao Ziang nods.

Tang Mo has learned about the second year boy's psychic abilities.

This was indeed a very offensive psychic ability now, but it was a pity that the thing that could be moved was just too small and not fast enough, at least Tang Mo was able to dodge it. If he could move a sharp knife at a faster speed, those stowaways would have a worse time.

Tang Mo took the nail and looked at the little fatty, "Don't just tell anyone about your powers again."

Zhao Ziang: "Huh?"

Tang Mo: "Be careful."

Zhao Ziang: "......"

Isn't that what you told me to say!!!!

Fatty had never been so snubbed before, and walked away aggrieved.

Li Wen said helplessly, "Tang Mo, is it really okay for you to bully little kids like that?"

Tang Mo, without changing his face, "I'm helping him grow."

Li Wen found it convincing.

During the daytime, Tang Mo laid several more traps in front of the school and along the school road. With Little Fatty's psychic ability, it was very convenient to lay traps. Chen Shanshan also told Tang Mo in detail about the powers of the remaining three stowaways.

"I won't mention the two dead stowaways, both of them had cockamamie psychic powers, so we killed them pretty sharpish. There are three left, two of them have dangerous psychic abilities, and one of them has a psychic ability of obscure use. I'll start with the one whose use is not obvious. That stowaway's alien ability is ...... to plant flowers. Mr. Li saw with his own eyes that the places he walked through suddenly bloomed. It's just ordinary roses, moonflowers, or whatever, we fought twice, and he didn't show anything special. But he was fast and seemed to know a bit of fighting skills. He fought fiercely. He had a broken arm, and he was the stowaway who tried to take Wang Chao's matches in the Black Tower game."

Tang Mo has seen all sorts of oddball psychic powers, and his own bitchy book is also very odd, and he does not comment on this kind of cultivating the body and cultivating the flower type psychic powers ......, but he still can t let his guard down.

Chen Shanshan : "There are two other people with dangerous psychic abilities. One of them can breathe fire."

"Fire-breathing?" It was the first time Tang Mo had heard of such a strange and common sense psychic ability.

In many TV dramas, most of the characters with supernatural powers use magic-like abilities, such as breathing fire or spitting water. Tang Mo had read some novels when he was bored in the library, and many of the alien ability classifications were things like gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. There were only a handful of people who produced strange powers like the Black Pagoda.

"Yes, he breathes fire. His fire appears from his mouth. I've observed carefully, every three minutes he can breathe fire, the flame temperature is so high that it can't melt steel, but it can melt marble. Before the night was too dark you probably didn't see that two of the four words 'City North High School' in front of our school were melted by the fire he spewed out. The melting point of steel is around 1500℃, the melting point of marble is about 800℃, the temperature of the flame he spewed out is estimated to be under 1000℃."

It's a very dangerous psychic ability indeed.

"And the other one?" Tang Mo's tone was serious.

"There's another ...... who has a gun."

"Guns?" Tang Mo's expression froze.

There is a gun ban in Huaxia, ordinary people are not allowed to have guns. But there is a policy at the top and a plan at the bottom, and there have been several shooting murders in China. A few years ago there was a serial killer known as Bakuto who killed people with guns.

There is no doubt that stowaways have inevitably killed people. But killing people and killing people with guns are two different things. Criminals who are able to kill with guns tend to be the poorest kind, not ordinary murderers who at least have access to guns.

Chen Shanshan shook his head, "No, it's not that scary yet. Zhao Ziang likes to play survival games and is familiar with firearms. He said that the gun was a police gun, and it should have been snatched from the police station by that smuggler after the game started. But having a gun isn't scary, what's scary is that the man's psychic ability seems to be related to guns. He has unlimited bullets."

Tang Mo's heart tightened.

"Zhao Ziang said that a typical police gun has eight rounds of ammunition, but the stowaway fired at least thirty rounds last night. Didn't change the gun or the magazine. We don't know exactly how many bullets his powers can fire, we can only consider the worst case scenario, that he has unlimited bullets."

Tang Mo frowned, "Full-fledged players have high physical qualities, with hard skin that can withstand ordinary knife and weapon slashes, but for the time being, they can't fight against a gun, and they'll lose their combat power after being hit by three shots. It's even more unlikely for a reservist to be able to defend against a gun."

"Yes, we know."

Tang Mo thinks long and hard, "Can I use the big match?"

As soon as his words fell, Little Fatty hurriedly carried the big match over and handed it to Tang Mo : "I've been waiting for you to say this for a long time. The three of us official players have the best physical fitness, and I feel that your strength is stronger than mine. Chen Shanshan said that this is best for you to use."

Tang Mo was slightly stunned and looked at Chen Shanshan.

The short-haired girl looked solemn, like a young adult, "This thing must be awesome."

Tang Mo smiled, "In my hands, it will be even more powerful." After saying this, Tang Mo pressed the large familiar match towards his wrist. Instantly, the giant match disappeared and a red match tattoo surfaced on his wrist again.

Chen Shanshan and Little Fatty's eyes widened in surprise.

Tang Mo said, "My powers."

Little Fatty suddenly realized, "This is considered a concealed weapon! That's great!"

Time passed by, and the sun was fading into the west. Everyone was still somewhat relaxed during the day, and the closer it got to night, the more tense everyone's spirits became.

Tang Mo walked over to the little girl, Qiao Feifei. This soft junior girl was holding a large kitchen knife found in the school cafeteria and had a large stick strapped to her body. She was a girl, but she was more of a formal player, and she was more powerful than that teacher Li.

"You'd better not use a stick, using a knife is enough. You're not tall enough to use a stick, instead you can't use your full strength, and tying it to your body will become a burden. You are suitable for a lighter weapon." Tang Mo said, "Give me the stick."

Qiao Feifei thought for a moment, removed the stick from her back and handed it to Tang Mo : "Good."

Tang Mo took the stick and expectedly felt a hint of strange power. He went to the corner and took his book of powers out of the air.

[Alien Power: Finding Friends]

[Owner: Qiao Feifei (Official Player)

[Type: Special]

[Function: Inquire about player's identity]

[Level: I]

【Restriction: Only five players can be queried per day, and when the query subject's supernatural ability is much stronger than their own, they cannot be directly queried】.

[Remarks: So hot, I don't want to make notes]

So it's because his powers are stronger than Qiao Feifei's, that's why Qiao Feifei can't see his identity directly and needs to physically touch him?

Tang Mo, look further down.

[Tang Mo version of the instructions for use: you can check the identity of one player per day. This alien power is too chicken, I have nothing to say if Tang Mo doesn't pay for it.]

Tang Mo had deliberately gone to collect Qiao Feifei's psychic ability. After obtaining Li Bin's psychic ability yesterday, he vaguely realized that his physical qualities seemed to be stronger. His eyes could see farther, his reaction speed was faster, and his strength was greater.

Before acquiring Li Bin's psychic ability, Tang Mo didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to dodge the first nail that Little Fatty sneaked up on him. He wanted to verify that after acquiring someone else's psychic ability, what he got besides the psychic ability was not an increase in strength.

It turned out to be what he thought it would be.

Tang Mo squeezed the stick in his hand. The five fingers of his right hand pressed down hard, and five shallow fingerprints appeared on the solid wood stick.

If acquiring someone else's psychic abilities enhances combat power, then ......

Tang Mo walks over to Fatty, "I'm a little hungry, Fatty, can I have this piece of bread?"

Zhao Ziang was eating to replenish his strength for the big battle. He muttered, "There's more over there, go get one for yourself."

Tang Mo was cheeky: "I like your flavor, it's the only one left."

The little fat man was very generous and depressed and gave Tang Mo the bread.

Li Wen: "Hey Tang Mo, you're still robbing the kids of their food?"

Tang Mo didn't reply to his words, but her face was a bit unsightly.

He'd asked for bread from Little Fatty and hadn't paid for it, but he didn't actually get Little Fatty's powers?

What's going on here?

Tang Mo was a bit undeterred. Little Fatty's psychic ability was very aggressive, and if he collected it, it would be a big help next. Tang Mo asked Little Fatty for a few more cookies and a carton of milk, he didn't want any of the other people's food, he wanted Little Fatty's. Little Fatty's face turned green, crying without tears, "Why are you just staring at me!"

Tang Mo, face even greener, "...... One more cookie."

After eating two boxes of cookies, a loaf of bread, and a carton of milk from Little Fatty, Tang Mo was all stuffed up and still didn't get Little Fatty's powers.

The others were amused by this odd behavior of theirs, and laughed in unison in a rare moment before the big battle. Chen Shanshan, however, glanced thoughtfully at Tang Mo, and when he finally gave up and turned away, she grabbed a box of cookies and quickly ran over to him.

The short, skinny girl was not very good-looking, but her eyes were very determined. She looked at Tang Mo: "Are you trying to get something from someone? Is it related to your special ability? Is it okay for me to give you something, so will you become stronger?"

Tang Mo was shocked.

How can you be so smart? How did you guess so accurately?

Chen Shanshan had no psychic powers, and Tang Mo would not be able to do any good even if he took her things without paying for them. But the little girl stared at him earnestly, holding a box of cookies in both hands, and gritting her teeth, she said, "I'll give it to you, and you must kill them. Whatever it is, kill them and I'll give it to you."

Tang Mo was about to say no, but when he heard this, he closed his mouth and took the cookie from the little girl. The moment his fingers touched the cookie, Tang Mo opened his eyes wide. He didn't put it back into the air after taking out the Alien Book just now, but put it into his backpack. He now took out the book and opened it.

[Psychic ability: super-intelligent thinking]

[Owner: Chen Shanshan (reserve)]

[Type: Genotype]

[Function: Extreme development of brain area, super intelligence, super acuity]

[Level: III]

[Limitations: Judgment accuracy capped at 50%, 0 room for physical strength improvement]

[Remarks: Why do I always guess the truth correctly? Fish-lipped mortals, because I'm smarter than you ahahahahaha.]

Tang Mo version of the instructions for use: judgment accuracy of 10%. Crap Tang Mo actually have this shit luck, can can, this he does not even bring money!

"What's wrong?" Chen Shanshan asked.

Tang Mo looks down at the little girl.

Big Mole once said that full players and stowaways are bound to have powers, and that reservists may also have powers.

So that's it. No wonder she's so smart.

"I will kill them."

Chen Shanshan : "Good, kill them and take revenge!"

Bang!

An ear-piercing gunshot breaks the silent night, Tang Mo turns his head sideways and pushes away Teacher Li who is standing behind him. In his line of sight, a silver-colored bullet flew past the place where Mr. Li stood just now at a slow speed, the bullet trajectory breaking through the air, Tang Mo quickly looked in the direction where the bullet was fired, his gaze coalescing.

Tang Mo shouted, "Fatty, break the gym lights."

"Yes!"

A nail traveled quickly through the air, shattering all the light bulbs in the gym.

The world was plunged into darkness.

Li Wen asked in surprise, "Tang Mo, what are you doing?"

Tang Mo squatted on the ground and drew a neat circle with great speed. The sky was too dark, and the others only saw him suddenly squatting, but did not know what he was doing. Tang Mo stood up and faintly said, "Draw a circle and curse him."
