Chapter 130 The Blind Man Wants to Save the World
The lake in the sky was calm without a single ripple. But within the lake, monsters swarmed out.
The sound of grief and resentment resounded through the heaven and earth, they seemed to be crying, and also seemed to be cursing. Hearing such miserable tones, the bright sunshine seemed hazy.
Those deformed organs and twisted limbs emerged silently from the lake in the sky like weeds after rain, and stretched out in a disgusting and abominable manner towards Black Tower Seven.
Gao Mengtang hid in a corner. The seven sculptures were broken, and the black tower was empty, without even a shelter.
Outside the window, there were double pupils and pus-filled skin. Monsters could rush in at any time.
Gao Mengtang asked: "Limo, what on earth did you let me do——"
Li Mo turned into a human form, with large areas of his skin burnt.
"——Are you okay?" Gao Mengtang lowered his voice and asked cautiously.
Li Mo ignored him and fell into memories, with a layer of hazy mist on his face: "The Holy Lord heard my sorrow and took me into the City of Separation... Cutting apart nightmares and dreams, resurrecting in the gap..."
Gao Mengtang: "What do you mean?"
Li Mo: “I don’t know.”
Gao Mengtang: "...You'd better know the current situation."
Li Mo pulled himself away from his memories: "The strength of the Dream Gem is closely related to the Black Tower. The inner world has become a wasteland, and the Black Tower has lost its faith and is dying. Bringing the Black Tower to the outer world may give us a glimmer of hope."
"perhaps?!"
"Well, maybe." Li Mo said calmly, "I don't know if the Black Tower can take root here. But anywhere is better than the area around Black Tower Zero."
Gao Mengtang: ...You are going too far.
It's fine if you go through fire and water to meet your creator, but why drag innocent people into it? Gao Mengtang hugged Pei Jiana tightly, and the two of them stared at Li Mo with resentment.
What would happen if the Black Tower could not take root in the surface world? Would the monsters from outside rush in?
Gao Mengtang called out in his heart, Twelve Ghost Shadows, you can see clearly, I don’t want to die, this time it’s suicide.

"What is that thing!"
“Take pictures, take pictures!”
Wei Wei narrowed his eyes: "It seems to be the Black Tower."
"The Black Tower can appear in our world?"
"Stay away! Stay away!"
The crowd pushed and shoved, and the noise continued. Hellen suddenly shouted: "The prophecy in the forest! The blind man will come with the gods!"
Thinking of the prophecy, they calmed down a little and stopped to look up.
Could the strange creatures that emerged halfway from the sky lake be the gods from the other world? !
Half of the black tower is buried in the ground, and the other half is exposed. The part buried in the ground is called the "root system", which is almost identical to the exposed part. The bases of the two towers face each other, and the spires are opposite. From a distance, it looks like a shuttle.
Suddenly, the tip of the upside-down black tower touched the ground, and the black tower suddenly split into several long strips and stabbed into the ground.
Gao Mengtang's face was clearly filled with frustration. At this moment, he looked outside and became even more frustrated: "Don't take root here——!"
Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to choose a location.
The roots pierced through his parents' graves, and Gao Mengtang watched helplessly as the neat, clean little white tombstone was crushed into pieces and splashed everywhere. The beautiful little flowers in front of the grave were crushed to extract their juice and mixed into the soil.
“…”
"I should be written into the negative example of the Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars, the Twenty-Four Smiles." Gao Mengtang looked numb.
The black tower stood firmly on the original site of the Gao family's ancestral tomb. This crooked, pitch-black strange building looked like a giant poisonous vine that reached the sky. The monsters entangled outside the black tower turned into black mist and were dissolved by the earth's gas. Their whistling sounds still echoed in the air.
The huge waves turned into calm in the blink of an eye.
The onlookers still didn't dare to come forward. They stood there like frightened ducks, with their mouths open in a daze.
Gao Mengtang walked out of the dilapidated throne hall. The bright sunlight shone on his face and he squinted slightly.
"I'm sorry."
He squatted down and touched the cracked ground with one hand: "I'm sorry..."
Five minutes later, everyone in the Black Tower knew about the "blind man and the gods' arrival".
A hundred-meter-high building fell from the sky. Such a huge scene could be seen clearly by anyone who was not a player or a blind person.
Hundreds of people present at the scene took photos and recorded videos. Pictures reveal the truth, and there were also hundreds of eyewitnesses at the scene.
Before this, some people scoffed at the sayings such as "the blind man is an ancient god", "the blind man is a blessed spirit", and "the blind man is a wise king". After he brought the black tower to the surface world, no one questioned its authenticity anymore.
Even Yin Mingwu, who is recognized as the strongest human player, failed to move the black tower, but the blind man did it!
The crowd that came to watch the excitement dispersed after several hours.
The designer held the drawing board and looked at the black tower with a dull face: "Mr. Wei, this... building is just right, uh, it appears in the planned main building location. What should we do now, can this thing be demolished?"
Can’t demolish it, and don’t want to demolish it.
The Black Tower is the main building of the base camp, how impressive! No building is more suitable than the Black Tower. In comparison, the office building in the city center of Heiou is too shabby to look at.
After repairing it well, other camp members will live in ordinary reinforced concrete buildings, but the Moon Banner members will live in the Black Tower!
It was magnificent and grand. It also saved money. Wei Wei was delighted and sent the designer away with just a few words.
There was nothing inside the black tower. Gao Mengtang and the others climbed up the stairs on the wall to the balcony at the top of the black tower, took a deep breath, and looked down.
Well, the air in the Black Tower is more spiritually polluted than anywhere else.
Pegana was still a little unhappy. Thinking of the lifeless inner world, he was in low spirits and lay in the tower muttering to himself.
"How could it become like this..."
"It shouldn't be like this."
Duan Song: "I will go and enlighten Him."
Gao Mengtang: "Can you also provide psychological counseling?"
"Of course. Don't underestimate me." Duan Song walked to Pei Jiana with confidence, and with a bang, five large buckets of fried chicken appeared in the air.
The fried chicken fell to the ground and piled up into a small hill. Duan Song waved his hand and said, "Eat it."
Pegana: “Oh?”
He leaned in and smelled it; it smelled delicious.
The name of the source of fear is very impressive. But in reality, he can only snatch the leftover food from the players, or... rummage through the trash cans.
No matter how he transforms, he must have long hair on his body. He can't turn into a dog, walk into KFX, speak human language, and order a fried chicken meal, right?
Pegana took a bite cautiously. The crispy and charred shell was still hot. After biting it, the gravy burst in his mouth. The chicken was tender and tasty, and every fiber was soaked in the aroma of oil.
This must be the delicacy that the wise king eats every day. It’s so delicious!
Pegana ate voraciously, spitting out the bones at first, but when he finished the last few buckets, he chewed the bones into pieces. The circle of hair around his mouth was soaked with oil and wet in clumps.
More than twenty eyes were shining brightly, and the previous loss and depression were swept away.
"And there's Fat Dog Happy Water." Duan Song put a big bucket of Coke next to him.
"Give me more," Pegana said incoherently while chewing a bone. "I have eight tongues, so I eat fast."
Gao Mengtang: ...Okay.
Material satisfaction is indeed more effective than any spiritual chicken soup.
Seeing that he had almost finished eating, Gao Mengtang took out Bu Xiaoting's USB drive from the inventory.
"Pegana, the bubble has burst, you can go home now." Gao Mengtang said, "I made you unhappy with everything that happened before. I'm very sorry."
Pegana still had half a fried chicken in his mouth. When he heard this, the fried chicken fell with a snap.
Gao Mengtang continued, "This USB drive can open the narrow door. I'll try it out in a few days and teleport you back."
Pegana still didn't say anything, his twenty eyes were wide open and almost popped out of their sockets.
"Well, maybe, as a shadow creature, you can open the narrow door yourself?" Gao Mengtang couldn't figure out what he was thinking. "It doesn't matter what, you are free."
Pegana finally came to his senses, slowly lowered his head and glanced at the bones all over the ground.
Is this... a final meal?
He let out a wail, threw himself on Gao Mengtang's legs, rubbed against him, and tears flowed from his twenty eyes at the same time: "Master, don't you want a dog anymore? Woof, am I not your puppy anymore!"
Gao Mengtang: "Don't you want to go back to the other world?"
"No!" Pegana rubbed harder, "The dog just wants to be with the master!"
The other world is a place where no birds live. No, there are no birds at all.
When Pegana entered the Black Tower, he was even more disappointed. There was no magnificent palace, no guards holding magic wands, only a monster with arms all over its body that looked like a human but not a human.
What's even more infuriating is that when the thirteenth wise king saw him, he stretched out his hand and hit him, frightening Pegana so much that he turned around and ran away.
Legends are lies, Wise King Thirteen is not friendly to shadow creatures at all.
The Thirteenth King cannot give him fried chicken.
"Master, master, where is your basin? Take it out quickly." Pei Jiana jumped up and down anxiously, and his eight tongues licked Gao Mengtang's trouser legs into a hollow style.
Gao Mengtang took out the ice cup: "Here it is. What are you going to do?"
Pegana jumped into the ice bowl and turned into a miniature shadow in the bubble.
Gao Mengtang: ...
"I'm in again, my master can't abandon me! Abandonment is against the law!"
"Okay, okay, I won't abandon you." Gao Mengtang smiled helplessly.
Pegana: "You can't send me back to the other world either!"
Isn't that your hometown that you've been thinking about? Gao Mengtang smiled bitterly: "No need to see you off."
The colorful fluff was wet with tears, and more than twenty eyes were crying together, the scene was particularly shocking.
"Are you sure?"
"Uh-huh."
"Hook." Pegana stuck out her tongue.
The little finger was entangled by the tongue and shook. Pegana was still crying, and Gao Mengtang stuffed two chicken legs into his mouth to stop his tears.
Pegana sobbed, "I'm so sad today. Master, a dog will eat ten pounds of fried chicken when he's sad."
Gao Mengtang: "...I'll give you 20 kilograms."
Pegana rubbed his face again, tears welling up in her eyes: "Woo, woo, woo, the master is the best and wise king!"

That night, posts related to the blind filled the first five pages, while the "Recruitment for the Human Resources Team", "Recruitment for the Public Opinion Team" and "Recruitment for the Killer Department" posted by Hei Gull sank to a corner that no one paid attention to.
#The Blind Black Tower#
#The first black tower standing in the surface world#
#月塡黑 Tower一日repo#
#Rational discussion on when the blind will rule the world#
In the public chat room, the Black Gull recruitment information, which used to be the most popular, is now ignored.
: By the way, after the black tower was moved, why did the blind man touch the land and say "I'm sorry"?
: I was at the scene. The black tower crushed a grave. I guess it was the grave of the blind man’s family [covering face][bitter smile], and the blind man said sorry to his family.
: Huh? It's a joke from hell.
: Jesus didn't want to watch it either, but he had no choicejpg.
Dark Connoisseur (Liu Yanqi ID): Vulgar understanding.
: Isn't this the guy who got full marks in reading comprehension? What a rare guest.
Liu Yanqi is a mid-to-high-level player, and a backbone of the Red Camp [Velvet Gallery] among the five major camps. She does not often appear in forums and chat rooms, and her recent appearances were all related to the Blind Man.
Connoisseur of Darkness: When a blind man says the three words "I'm sorry", what he feels is not the fresh air flowing between his fingers, not the soft sunlight on his skin, not the stems that have grown from tender green to old in ten years, but the touch of gravel ground by time.
: Translation: Why don’t the blind people say sorry by touching the breeze/sunshine/tree trunks, but instead say it by touching the soil?
: Because his parents are buried in the soil, not in the breeze/sunshine/tree trunks.
Liu Yanqi shook his head slowly: Summer insects cannot talk about ice. Will human ethics become a hindrance to the blind?
: Translation: A blind man doesn't care about his parents' graves.
: Ah, this... you still need to care about it, right?
Dark Connoisseur: Where do we grow? The land. The Great Kun Yuan, where all things grow, follows the will of heaven. Is what the blind man touches an ordinary piece of soil? Of course not.
: What he touched were the invisible roots of human beings buried in the soil!
: I actually think it makes some sense.
: As a god, the blind man should not be as attached to his parents as mortals, nor do he have mortal emotions. Burial and mourning are human rituals that gods do not understand. The blind man would not do this.
Gao Mengtang was feeling depressed about destroying his parents' graves. He changed the note he left for Li Mo from "Moonlight Painting" to "Enemy Painting". Just as he was about to put his phone back, he saw a few @messages about him and clicked on them.
I saw comments like this in the public chat room.
What do you mean by "wouldn't do that"! His parents died, his brother disappeared, he didn't bury his parents, he didn't set up the tombstone, could it be that they just went to lie in the dirt pit?
Dark Connoisseur: On the day when the Black Tower descended, the Blind Man only cared about humans. His apology was addressed to humans.
Gao Mengtang:……?
: Why should the blind say sorry to humans?
Dark Connoisseur: Look up and see this miserable world.
This statement is not hypocritical or exaggerated. The world is really struggling in misery.
The monsters in the Black Tower dungeon are appearing more and more frequently in reality. More than 20 cities have been sealed off, and Beizhou is even planning to build a high wall and a survivor base.
Dark Connoisseur: As a wise king, the Blind Man is the master in the inner world. We always wonder why he came to the outer world. It is true that he was injured (perhaps he was framed by villains in the war of usurping the throne) and needed to use the Black Tower copy to recover his strength.
: What happens after you gain power? I have a new idea - the blind should save the world.
Gao Mengtang: ...Really? How come I didn't know?
He is not a person who thinks highly of himself. When he is fortune-telling, the stall owner always asks him "What are you fortune-telling?"
The world is so vast and boundless that all a person can do in his entire life is to leave a unique wave in the torrent of history.
Dark Connoisseur: Think about it, why did the blind man pry three Black Owls away in one go?
: Does he need people? How many people want to join Yuefan, and there are many who are stronger than those three. Is he deliberately against Yin Mingwu? This is ridiculous. Is Yin Mingwu worthy of being the opponent of the blind man?
: There is only one possibility. In the [Garden Horror] copy, the blind man further discovered that the black gull, known as the "pilot bird", and the Yinmingwu, known as the "lighthouse", were just like that. There was no hope in them.
Dark Connoisseur: The blind decide, take his place.
: That makes sense. Through the four people of Black Gull, the blind man saw the suffering in this world. If the members of Black Gull were like this, the situation of ordinary people would be even worse. So he took the living people away, left the dungeon, and teleported the Black Tower here as soon as possible to start saving the world.
: It's too late. Is the world saved? Will the Black Tower game end?
: Our savior, come!
: Woohoo! Wei Wei has moved to another place, but he is still so cold-blooded and ruthless. I applied to join the Moon Banner 6 times, and was rejected 6 times. I applied for the seventh time and gathered all the skills to summon the dragon.
: Hei Gull, stop posting ads here, no one will pay attention to you! If you post again, I will kick you out!

Gao Mengtang turned off his phone and saw the enemy painting flashing in front of him.
"The Dream Gem has been repaired." Li Mo handed him a palm-sized, lavender gem, "Take it."
People who possess the Dream Gem will change their appearance in the eyes of others, either becoming the person the other person wants to see the most or the person the other person hates the most.
Gao Mengtang held the gem in his hand, silent. After a moment, he asked, "How is it?"
Li Mo shook his head: "No change."
"What do you mean, the gem is broken?" Gao Mengtang warmed it with his palm.
"Mr. Blind Man, please take the time to reply to these emails. I see you are not very busy." Wei Wei pushed the door open and froze in place as if struck by lightning.
His hands were shaking as he held the laptop, and he almost dropped it. After a long while, he finally said, "Why are you here?"
Gao Mengtang: "This is my bedroom, of course I'm here..."
"You are already dead," Wei Wei closed his notebook and took out his pipe, "Whose spell is this?"
Gao Mengtang finally came to his senses. He was still holding the Dream Gem. A lavender mist was lingering around him, and the silhouettes of several people were vaguely visible.
He placed the stone gently on the table. "Don't be nervous. It's just a little genjutsu. It should be normal now."
Wei Wei seemed to have just woken up from a dream, staring at him with empty eyes: "Well. Please reply to these emails."
After putting away the computer, Wei Wei left the room silently, but anyone who knew him well could tell that he was in a bad mood. I don't know what he saw that touched him so deeply.
Is the gem not broken?
"Then why haven't I changed in front of you?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Li Mo checked the gem over and over again: "Maybe the power of the Black Tower is not strong enough, the Dream Gem cannot be fully effective, it can confuse mortals, but not me."
Gao Mengtang didn't hesitate any more. He entered the password and turned on the computer.
The finger sliding the scroll wheel suddenly froze.
Just now, Wei Wei said "Why are you here?" and "You are already dead." Instead of "you".
One of them should be Gu Kang. What about the rest?
bite.
The notification sound of receiving an email brought Gao Mengtang back to his senses.
This email was actually sent in the name of the camp [Dark Crossing Flash Butterfly]. They invited Gao Mengtang and other members of Yuefan to attend Qin Xishuang's funeral.
