The Earth is Online - Chapter 52

[Chapter 52]

Like cats, wolves have great night vision.

Tang Mo tiptoed to the door, his right hand tightly holding the bottle neck of the vase, his body was half close to the office door, and he listened carefully to the movement outside. One after another dull grunts came from outside the door, as if a beast was clenching its fangs and bursting with energy.

In the corner of the wall, Xing Feng shivered with fright, and tried his best to tuck himself into the corner to reduce his sense of existence.

Tang Mo was listening to the movement of the wolf outside the door, and the wolf outside the door was also staring at the door. Both sides are stagnant. At this moment of lightning and flint, Tang Mo used his left hand and threw the glowing stone onto the window at the front of the door. He chose the angle of the parabola so well that the stone just caught in the gap between the door frame and the window to stabilize it.

The stone snapped against the door frame with a crisp click, breaking the stalemate. The shoe polish wolf screamed and rushed to the door. Tang Mo opened the door at the same time. The shoe polish wolf ran straight at him, he couldn’t see the wolf’s movements at all, and he kicked it directly, kicking the long and thin wolf against the wall of the corridor.

The shoe polish wolf roared angrily, it kicked its hind legs hard, and charged towards Tang Mo again.

Tang Mo turned sideways to avoid its surprise attack and walked into the corridor. Glowing stones cast a faint glow, illuminating a small area of the hallway. Tang Mo didn’t know if the shoe polish wolf had the same terrifying night vision ability as the wolf on Earth, but in any case, he couldn’t fight this wolf without light. So from the beginning, he preemptively made a light source for himself.

The shoe polish wolf was very fast. It was slender and slender. It stomped on the walls of the corridor with all its strength, and kept rushing towards Tang Mo from all directions. Tang Mo’s vase smashed its head, leaving a burst of blood on its head. The shoe polish wolf was even more irritable. It didn’t have much strength, but its speed was too fast. It stomped on the wall, leaped into the air, and grabbed Tang Mo with its sharp claws.

Tang Mo rolled a carp from the ground, and the two exchanged positions.

The black wolf let out an angry roar, Tang Mo gasped lightly, and clenched the broken flower neck with his right hand.

A man and a wolf face each other in the narrow corridor.

The next moment, the shoe polish wolf suddenly attacked, and Tang Mo rushed up holding the broken vase. The two black shadows met halfway through. Tang Mo raised the vase and stabbed the shoe polish wolf in the eye with the broken part. The wolf had been on guard for a long time. It turned its head sideways, opened its sharp teeth, and bit on the vase.

With a click, the broken vase turned into four or five pieces in the air.

At this moment, the shoe polish wolf waved his right paw and grabbed Tang Mo’s eyes. Tang Mo was also prepared to turn his head to avoid it. At the same time, he took the opportunity of the shoe polish wolf to bite the vase, and reached out very quickly to grab a splashed debris from the air. Tang Mo’s stern gaze swept across the shoe polish wolf’s neck, then he ran forward and swiped his right hand hard.

A sharp piece of porcelain pierced the wolf’s neck, and a huge gap was drawn from its throat to the back of its neck.

Tang Mo staggered and fell a few steps forward. He raised his hand and wiped the blood from his right cheek. The shoe polish wolf slammed down, even if he had planned, he could not completely avoid it, and a slender wound was drawn. But behind him, the shoe polish wolf’s entire body fell out, fell to the ground in the corridor, and slid into the distance.

Tang Mo walked quickly to it.

The shoe polish wolf’s neck was almost cut in half by Tang Mo, leaving only a little flesh still attached to the body. Thick blood flowed out of its body, it kept humming, its green eyes stared straight at Tang Mo. Tang Mo looked at it expressionlessly, bent over and stabbed the broken porcelain piece into the shoe polish wolf’s head, making a knife.

The shoe polish wolf was completely out of breath.

A green light flashed from the shoe polish wolf, the light dissipated, the shoe polish wolf’s body and the blood that had just shed all disappeared, and a drop of pearl-like black liquid appeared on the shoe polish wolf’s body.

Tang Mo picked up the shoe polish.

This drop of shoe polish has a strange texture, similar to mercury, and can be grabbed directly. Heita said that killing the shoe polish wolf can get a drop of shoe polish, but Tang Mo really only got a drop of shoe polish now. Even if he tries to separate the drop of shoe polish into two drops, after he stops doing so, the two halves of shoe polish will come together again and become one drop of shoe polish.

When Xing Feng saw Tang Mo coming back, his body trembled with excitement: “You…you defeated the shoe polish wolf so easily? We may be saved, really saved!”

The wound on Tang Mo’s face had stopped bleeding, but it had not healed completely. He asked coldly, “What happened to the shoe polish wolf, and how did those two die? Who made the wound on your body? ?”

Three questions in a row left Xing Feng speechless.

Tang Mo pulled out the chair in the office and sat down. Xing Feng was very close to him. Xing Feng trembled and propped up his body with his hands and moved forward with difficulty. He wanted to stay away from Tang Mo. But Tang Mo directly kicked the wall with a loud bang, and his legs were in front of Xing Feng.

The wounded old player took a step back in fear.

Tang Mo raised his foot and kicked the wall again, causing the entire office to tremble. He raised his lips and sneered: “Answer me, three questions.”

Xing Feng looked at him in fear, and finally opened his mouth: “The shoe polish wolf is… the thing you just killed. It will appear every three hours, one for the first time, and two for the second time. Only, then three. Kill the shoe polish wolf to get a drop of shoe polish. If you can’t kill the shoe polish wolf, it will disappear on its own in five minutes.”

Tang Mo: “Disappear on your own?” So as long as you dodge for five minutes, you can avoid facing the shoe polish wolf head-on?

Xing Feng nodded in fear: “Yes…Yes. But, ten minutes after the shoe polish wolf appeared, the iron shoemaker…the iron shoemaker will appear. He will ask you if you have any…”

“boom–”

A dull sound interrupted Xing Feng’s words. Hearing this voice, Xing Feng’s face showed a look of fear, and he looked in the direction of the door in horror. Tang Mo heard a thumping sound coming from one end of the corridor, followed by the sound of chains mopping the floor.

The thing got closer and closer, and it was almost at the door of this office.

Tang Mo clenched the broken pieces of porcelain he had just put in his pocket and stood up. He had realized who this man was.

Three seconds later, a strong man like a giant appeared at the door. He put the chain in his right hand on his arm and held the long nail in his left. His malicious eyes first looked at Xing Feng on the ground, Xing Feng shrank back in fright and hid behind Tang Mo. Then, he looked at Tang Mo who was standing there.

The black shoemaker gave a low laugh, slammed the table with his nails, and shouted, “Where’s my shoe polish! You scumbags, have you found my shoe polish!”

A loud and impatient voice echoed in the office.

On the other side of the food processing factory, Fu Wenduo stood in the small utility room, looking up at the small TV hanging in the corner.

On the screen, Wang Xiaotian, who was wearing a blue dress, transformed a swivel chair out of nowhere. She sat on the swivel chair with a bright smile. “Today is a special episode of “Happy Questions and Answers”, and we only invited one challenger. Let me take a look, … wow! A very famous challenger, you all know his name.”

Fu Wenduo narrowed his eyes. He could only see Wang Xiaotian’s figure on the screen, but after she said these words, as if every TV program group would produce an effect, there was a burst of cheers on the small TV.

Wang Xiaotian sold out: “Then… Who is he?”

Fu Wenduo looked at the TV screen indifferently, and saw that the TV screen changed, and a promotional video with special effects of five cents appeared on the screen.

A line of black characters suddenly appeared.

“He is the first player in the world to open the first floor of the Black Tower.”

This line of words seemed to have been erased, and another line of words was replaced.

“He is the first player in the world to clear the first floor of the Black Tower.”

After the second line of black words disappeared, the next line of words did not appear for a long time. Fu Wenduo waited for a long time when a swallowing voice came from the TV screen. This is Wang Xiaotian’s voice. Tang Mo might not have been able to hear that the voice full of greed and appetite was coming from the cute cartoon character just now, but Fu Wenduo had been specially trained to hear it, and Wang Xiaotian was swallowing hard.

Then, five words appeared on the screen. The last three words were a strong blood red, and a drop of blood even dripped from these three words and fell to an invisible position below the TV screen.

“He’s—a stowaways!”

As soon as the screen turned, Wang Xiaotian’s cartoon round face appeared on the screen. Her mouth was full of saliva, and when she saw that the camera was on herself, she immediately raised her sleeves to wipe the saliva clean. She smiled sweetly: “Then, there is a contestant who has invited all the citizens of the Underworld Kingdom to be obsessed for a long time, and has won the first place in “Monster Weekly”‘s ‘My Favorite Humanity’ for three consecutive times–”

“Fu Wenduo!”

Fu Wenduo stood in the grocery room, staring at the TV screen. I saw a cartoon villain in black clothes jumping out from one end of the screen. He walked to the chair opposite Wang Xiaotian and sat down, bowed his head, and said nothing. Three words appeared on his head——

“Fu Wenduo”

Wang Xiaotian: “Our contestant Fu is a little silent, won’t he say something to the audience who like you?”

The cartoon Fu Wenduo still didn’t speak.

Wang Xiaotian looked away from the mini Fu Wenduo, she turned her head and glanced outside. Her eyes seemed to be looking at the camera, but her eyes strangely happened to meet the real Fu Wenduo outside the TV. She wiped her saliva again and smiled strangely: “Since Player Fu doesn’t want to talk, let’s start. Let’s look at the first question… Oh, it’s a very simple common sense question.”

The playful voice of the little girl echoed in the grocery room.

“Player Fu should answer this question easily. Then, please listen to the question!”

“The first question, in the world on the first floor of the black tower, who likes to play tricks on stowaways the most?”

“A. Pinocchio, B. Cinderella… Hey, why am I in this option, I, Wang Xiaotian, never tease stowaways.” Wang Xiaotian pretended to be surprised, she covered her mouth very artificially, “Oh, I accidentally ruled out a wrong answer for Player Fu. Let’s continue. Mr. C. Martin, D. Uncle Gorilla. Player Fu, which one would you choose? Which is the correct option?”

“Our contestant Fu has twenty seconds to think about it. This is a question that will give points. Can contestant Fu answer the truth?”

At the same time, a line of small blue characters appeared in front of Fu Wenduo.

The blue text was suspended in mid-air, and it was the content of the first question that Wang Xiaotian said on the small TV just now. Below this line there are four more options. A big question mark appeared on the head of the miniature Fu Wenduo in the TV. Fu Wenduo outside the TV looked at the question, and then looked up at Wang Xiaotian’s exaggerated and contrived acting skills.

He pressed option B with a blank face.

Wang Xiaotian: “Eh?!!! How could it be me? Player Fu, this is a question that gives points. You really don’t want to change the answer again?”

Of course, the fake Fu Wenduo on the TV couldn’t answer her, Wang Xiaotian said it several times, and finally said helplessly: “Okay, congratulations! It’s obviously just occasionally, occasionally making fun of it for a little bit, just a little bit!”

Wang Xiaotian said some nonsense again, of course Fu Wenduo didn’t talk to her, but there was a lot of booing from the audience. Seeing that Fu Wenduo didn’t respond, she started the second question very bored.

“The second question, in the monster world, which monster eats the most stowaways?”

“A. Shrek, B. Hulk, C. Wolf Granny, D. Big Mole.”

“Wow, director, are you giving Player Fu a back door? This is cheating! This topic is too simple! I want to replace our audience, protest! Protest!”

There was a burst of boos from the audience.

Fu Wenduo looked at the question, but his face slowly sank.

Shrek’s name, Fu Wenduo, was seen on a billboard when he smuggled into the monster world. This is the big star of the monster world, and it stands to reason that the answer would not be it. He had never seen the Hulk, nor had he ever seen Grandma Wolf and the Big Mole.

…This cheating question, he really doesn’t know the answer.
