The Earth Is Online Chapter 214

Chapter 214

The flood was like a raging beast. It had irresistible momentum as it slammed against the wall of the labyrinth.

The walls that the players and monsters couldn’t destroy were like paper under the impact of the flood. The walls slowed the flood slightly but more and more water came from outside the maze. In the blink of an eye, they swallowed half the maze.

Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo were in the lead, followed by Mu Huixue, Bai Ruoyao and Andrei.

As they moved to the centre of the maze, they saw many humans rus.h.i.+ng towards the centre. Tang Mo could see a magnificent s.h.i.+p in the distance. The s.h.i.+p was made of gold when gems inlaid in the mast. The cabins were also made of jade.

The s.h.i.+p was firmly situated in the centre of the maze, as if it was a seductive apple tempting humans to take it. If they just entered then they could definitely avoid the terrible flood.

They saw it and a name emerged in everyone’s mind.

Noak’s ark.

However, once Tang Mo looked down and saw the heads surrounding the ark, his heart suddenly sank.

The muscular Grandmother Wolf was crawling on all fours, the green eyes full of hunger as she looked at the humans in front of her. Santa kept driving the sleigh in a circle around the ark. The bottom of the sleigh contained blood and flesh.

There was also the Strange Circus leader, the Queen of Hearts, Peter Pan and Schrodinger.

There were a total of six black tower bosses surrounding Noah’s ark, watching the incoming players like they were ants.

The players stopped.

Behind them, the water was still flooding towards the centre of the maze. All the players could survive in the water for more than an hour and some players even had props to survive in the water. However, they didn’t dare to take the risk.

Mu Huixue said, “The side mission is to let us leave the maze. The exit of the maze is obviously here.” She pointed to the ark surrounded by monsters and continued, “The water behind us can wash away the maze walls we couldn’t destroy. The quest is if it is actually water or not. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo, do you want to cooperate?”

Tang Mo turned his head to look at her. “In this, I think Grandmother Wolf is the strongest and Santa Claus never kills humans.”

Fu Wenduo said, “He just doesn’t kill personally with his own hands. He is probably stronger than the circus leader.”

Bai Ruoyao smiled and asked, “What about Peter Pan and Schrodinger? I can say that Peter Pan’s strength isn’t as high as Santa Claus and Schrodinger is definitely the weakest one. I once encountered Schrodinger when I entered an instance. He is really, really weak.”

Andrei said sullenly, “However, the cat has many harmful props.”

It was so easy when attacking the tower with advanced players.

Among the six black tower monsters, Peter Pan was the only one Tang Mo hadn’t encountered but Bai Ruoyao and the others had met him. Mu Huixue had faced the Queen of Hearts while Andrei and Schrodinger had played against each other. The five people combined information and came to a conclusion. “Breakthrough Schrodinger!”

At the same time, the players in other regions also found their own targets.

Tang Mo looked around and said, “Lian Yuzheng, Ruan w.a.n.gshu and Ning Zheng haven’t come. They might’ve died or left the game.” He just spoke when a figure appeared. Tang Mo cried out with shock, “Lian Yuzheng?”

Her body was covered with blood and there was a wound on Lian Yuzheng’s face.

Lian Yuzheng saw Tang Mo’s group and quickly came over. She opened her mouth and said, “Leader left the game. We met the Queen of Hearts and she was too strong. We weren’t her match at all. Leader was almost killed by her and left the game with a prop. At this time, she saw the six black tower bosses gathered under the ark. Her eyes narrowed and she looked at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo. “Leader said that if I meet you then I should listen to you. I hope that we can cooperate.”

Lian Yuzheng’s strength was also very good. Six people would be able to better deal with the black tower monsters.

At this time, a total of 22 players were concentrated in the centre of the maze. Maybe there were players who still hadn’t come but the flood was approaching and players had no time to wait for newcomers.

The 22 players had already joined teams. The black-haired, black-eyes Asians stood together while the Westerners formed a team. They seemed to have chosen the targets they wanted to attack and didn’t plan to join hands with anyone. There was only one thing they could do.

“Go!”

The 22 players launched an attack at the same time.

There were six monsters and 22 people. An average of three or four players joined together to deal with a monster. However, everyone wanted to attack the weakest monsters so Peter Pan and Schrodinger were the breakthrough part. Upon seeing this, the other black tower bosses moved. The situation was very bad and it suddenly became a melee.

Schrodinger was held in the hands of his housekeeper and kept throwing various props at the players. The black cat yelled angrily as he threw them, “How can you treat a cat like this? Dammit, I didn’t want to come here. If it wasn’t for the black tower then who would want to come here? I want to be in my fortress!”

Then the black cat saw Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo. The big round eyes widened and Schrodinger screamed, “Santa Claus, if you kill them for me, I will immediately make you a pure gold toilet with an automatic flus.h.i.+ng function, pure gold!”

Santa Claus was originally aiming his sleigh at two European players. After hearing this, his eyes brightened turned to Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo.

“Hohohoho, Merry Christmas!”

Tang Mo raised his right hand and steel needles appeared in the air. He waved his right hand and the steel needles shot at Santa Claus. On the other hand, Fu Wenduo directly rushed to Schrodinger. The black weapon slammed into the black cat and the mechanical butler raised his hand to block Fu Wenduo’s strike.

The sound of metal collisions rang in the maze.

Fu Wenduo’s eyes narrowed and he hit the housekeeper again. He knew that Tang Mo wasn’t Santa Claus’ opponent. He couldn’t delay the time too long and had to be quick. On the other side, the Queen of Hearts was facing Mu Huixue Andrei, Bai Ruoyao and two American players. The five people joined forces and the Queen of Hearts gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Mu Huixue found time to wrap her whip around the ark and she prepared to fly towards the big s.h.i.+p.

The Queen of Hearts turned back and shouted, “d.a.m.n Grecia, stop kissing Noah’s boat and help out. Otherwise, I will turn you into meat sauce to fertilize my flowers!”

Yes, only five black tower monsters had faced the players from start to finish. There was a black tower monster who hadn’t acted. The leader of the Strange Circus had been hugging Noah’s ark with obsessive eyes, madly kissing the cabin made of jade and touching the gold.

The Queen of Hearts blocked Mu Huixue’s way and turned her head again to scold him. Grecia glanced at the ark before touching his hat and sighing. “Well, letting a lady wait isn’t very polite, although you aren’t a lady.”

His mouth twitched and the next moment, a small and delicate cane shot at an incredible speed to the American player, piercing his arm. The American player let out a cry of pain.

The flood continued to destroy the maze and was about to reach the centre.

The black tower monsters didn’t try to leave and madly fought the players. Finally a player was sliced by Grandmother Wolf. He still wasn’t dead. He quickly took out a golden coin and wanted to leave the game before the wolf could completely kill him. However, he couldn’t say anything before Grandmother Wolf opened his mouth and ate his head.

“Hehe, thank you for the gold coin.”

Someone’s death and the threat of the flood meant these strong players were no longer careless.

Originally, they planned to let the black tower monsters kill some players to reduce their compet.i.tors. However, someone quickly died and they finally realized they couldn’t pa.s.s this side mission without cooperating.

A brown-haired, blue-eyed man spoke in English. “Attack Schrodinger.”

The little cat was stunned. “Why are you always aiming at me!”

It was because he was the weakest!

All the players answered in their hearts before turning to attack Schrodinger. The joint attack of a dozen fifth floor players allowed Schrodinger to use them without any props. Once the line of defense was broken, players took out strange props and ran to Noah’s ark.

By the time Grandmother Wolf and the others arrived, seven or eight players had already boarded the ark. Once they got on board, the black tower’s prompt rang in their ears.

“Ding dong! The side mission ‘Leave Noah’s Fun Maze’ has been completed.”

Mu Huixue tied the whip around the ark and pulled herself and Andrei to it. However, Tang Mo was tangled up with Santa Claus and couldn’t get away. Fu Wenduo’s originally planned to deal with Schrodinger and board the s.h.i.+p. After seeing that Tang Mo couldn’t leave, he turned without hesitation and the two of them dealt with Santa Claus.

Fu Wenduo gave up his position and Bai Ruoyao smiled. “Then I won’t be polite.” The baby-faced youth was about to board the s.h.i.+p when a black shadow suddenly rushed at him. Bai Ruoyao’s expression changed and he jumped backwards.

He saw Grandmother Wolf licking her sharp teeth and looking at him wickedly.

“Human, your meat is stinky but you broke my dress. I want to eat you!”

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

Your dress was broken by yourself!

A player was pierced by Grecia’s short cane and a player was forced by the Queen of Hearts to use a prop and leave the game. More and more players got on the s.h.i.+p and only Tang Mo, Fu Wenduo, Bai Ruoyao and two European players were left.

The flood washed against the last wall and headed towards the big s.h.i.+p in the centre.

Mu Huixue found a chance to throw the whip to Fu Wenduo and tied it around his arm. “Major Fu, pull Tang Mo to come up!”

The red whip wrapped around his arm and Mu Huixue held tightly to it. She screamed and pulled Fu Wenduo up. Upon seeing it, Andrei and Lian Yuzheng came to help. The three people worked hard and Fu Wenduo was quickly pulled up. He grabbed Tang Mo’s arm and brought Tang Mo with him.

The water was right before their eyes. A European player was caught in the flood while the other European gritted his teeth and used a prop to fly into the air and into the ark.

As Tang Mo was dragged towards the deck of the s.h.i.+p by Fu Wenduo, his gaze fell on Bai Ruoyao. Bai Ruoyao was tangled up in Grandmother Wolf and looked at Tang Mo. Tang Mo subconsciously reached out and said, “I want to be the Pirate King.” A rubber rope shot from Tang Mo’s hand and tied around Bai Ruoyao’s wrist, pulling him over.

The water rushed towards Santa’s sleigh. Santa let out a disappointed “Ah” and the players on the ark saw that he and his sleigh was wrapped in a giant bubble and floated above the flood.

Similarly, Grandmother Wolf, Peter Pan, Schrodinger and the Queen of Hearts were covered in a transparent bubble as they were touched by the flood.

The red-haired loli queen sighed indignantly. “b.a.s.t.a.r.d Noah, why isn’t your maze bigger? If the bath water came slowly then I could’ve killed these stinky humans!”

The black tower monster was. .h.i.t by the water and wrapped in a bubble, leaving the water. All the players on the big s.h.i.+p knew that they weren’t lucky. No one wanted to test what would happen if they fell into the water.

Other players saw Mu Huixue’s trio pulling Tang Mo’s trio over and showed a strange expression. Some people wanted them to go forward to stop them from saving people, eliminating more opponents. Lian Yuzheng loosened a hand on the whip and stared at them coldly while playing with a silver dagger.

The players from other regions thought for a moment before staying on the sidelines, no longer going forward.

With Fu Wenduo, Mu Huixue and Andrei’s strength, they could take on all 20 people aboard the s.h.i.+p. However, they were just about to bring Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao up when a terrible force suddenly appeared. Mu Huixue was pulled forward and almost let go of the whip.

She looked up and her expression stiffened.

“Grecia Sykes!”

A black cane was firmly stabbed into the hull of the golden s.h.i.+p, so that the owner was suspended in the air and not touched by the flood. The water could touch the gentleman at any time but as long as it didn’t touch him, he wouldn’t be covered with a bubble.

The circus leader smiled and held the cane with one hand while holding onto Bai Ruoyao’s leg with the other hand. He didn’t do anything else. He just held on from the bottom and laughed as he watched Bai Ruoyao and Tang Mo. He was telling them: Give up your teammates and become hypocrites.

Bai Ruoyao’s eyes narrowed. He wanted to kick this b.a.s.t.a.r.d down but couldn’t do it.

It was clear that Grecia could kill Bai Ruoyao and Tang Mo at any time but he didn’t do this. It was as if he was waiting for a good show.

Fu Wenduo, Mu Huixue and Andrei combined couldn’t pull Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao from Grecia’s hands. They could only maintain the balance.

Grecia smiled softly. “Humans are so hypocritical. Dear Tang Mo, won’t you give up? If you don’t let go then I will act.”

Tang Mo stared at Grecia silently before looking at Bai Ruoyao.

There was something wrong with Grecia’s guess. He and Bai Ruoyao had never been teammates. He wouldn’t feel guilty if he let go and let Bai Ruoyao fall into the flood. Of course, Bai Ruoyao would surely have a way to escape such as a king’s gold coin.

Tang Mo didn’t think much more. The one minute ability limit of the rubber rope was over. He could release the ability at any time and throw Bai Ruoyao down. He was about to start when a voice came from below. “Tang Mo, don’t let go!”

Tang Mo was stunned and asked, “Why?”

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

It seemed like he really didn’t have anything.

Bai Ruoyao was silent before saying calmly, “I want to clear the seventh floor. It is very important to me. If you save me this time, I will owe you a favour.”

Tang Mo never heard this psychopath sound so serious. He looked at the other person with amazement and saw Bai Ruoyao staring at him.

In the end, Tang Mo didn’t untie the rope. He sneered, “Remember, you owe me a favour.”

He didn’t let go. Tang Mo’s relations.h.i.+p with Bai Ruoyao wasn’t good but it seemed worthwhile to have this psychopath owe him. More importantly, he believed in Fu Wenduo.

Fu Wenduo would definitely find a solution.

Fu Wenduo looked at the situation below before releasing the hand holding the whip. The whip lowered again and Mu Huixue looked over strangely. Fu Wenduo pulled out a long silver object from his backpack. Mu Huixue’s expression changed. “A M70 anti-tank grenade? You actually have this type of thing?”

Fu Wenduo pulled the b.u.t.ton at the bottom of the grenade and threw it into the distance. He threw it so far that he couldn’t blow up Grecia at all. However, once the grenade fell into the flood, a dull explosive sound was heard from below the water. Everyone instantly understood what was going on.

The flood waters soared in an instant.

The shockwave set off a wave ten metres high and hit Noak’s ark.

The s.h.i.+p shook in the water and the water rushed. All the players...o...b..ard screamed angrily and found a place to stabilize their body, so they weren’t washed away by the wave. The wave got closer and closer and Grecia noticed something wasn’t right. He pulled Bai Ruoyao with one hand and removed the cane with the other, wanting to go around from below to kill Tang Mo.

He was only halfway when he was stopped by Bai Ruoyao. The baby-faced youth laughed dangerously. “Get lost.” He kicked Grecia away.

The next second, Grecia touched the water and was wrapped in a transparent bubble. He slowly retracted his cane and looked up at Noah’s ark.

In the final seconds, Fu Wenduo’s group pulled Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao onto the deck.

Inside the bubble, the Queen of Hearts exclaimed angrily, “d.a.m.n Grecia, if you were less obsessed with gold then I could definitely kill more than one human.”

Grecia spread open his hands and smiled. “Blame me.”

The red-haired loli scoffed.

Santa Claus regretfully touched his beard. “It is a pity we can’t make trouble after this.

Behind the six black tower bosses, the raging flood waters madly washed against the big s.h.i.+p. After Tang Mo stepped onto the deck, the black tower’s voice entered his ears. However, he didn’t have time to think about it as the big waves came instantly. Every player moved up and down from the violent waves. They sighed with relief after everything subsided.

The battle against the black tower monsters inevitably injured everyone. After taking care of their wounds, the 17 players on the ark stared at each other vigilantly.

They all knew that the people standing on the s.h.i.+p were senior players who cleared the fifth floor. Most of them were mainly staring at Tang Mo and Mu Huixue while some looked at Lian Yuzheng.

Tang Mo’s name had just been exposed and they naturally knew who Tang Mo was. In addition, the female with the Asian face was likely to be the first place on the time leaderboard, Mu Huixue.

Time pa.s.sed as the big s.h.i.+p moved slowly on the sea. Suddenly, the door of the cabin opened.

Everyone became alert.

“Ding dong! Please enter Noah’s ark.”

The crowd looked at the door suspiciously and the black tower reminded them again. There was no other option so the players entered the ark. After entering the ark, everyone quietly looked at the people around them, recording everyone’s information in their hearts.

While entering the ark, Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo were at the end with Bai Ruoyao in front of them.

Tang Mo’s soft voice was heard. “Don’t forget, you owe me a favour.”

The footsteps slightly paused. Bai Ruoyao turned around and said sadly, “Tang Tang, is my life only worth a favour in your heart?”

Tang Mo raised his eyebrows. “Of course.”

Bai Ruoyao, “…” Why did he feel that things were wrong?

The next second, Fu Wenduo stepped forward with Tang Mo and said, “Your human feelings aren’t very valuable.”

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

Tang Tang, Major Fu, you are bullying people!

Bai Ruoyao was the last one into Noah’s ark. After he entered, the door slammed shut. Everyone stopped and stared at the door with disbelief. The black tower’s childlike voice was heard.

“Ding dong! Successfully triggered the main mission: Noah’s dinner on the ark.”
