Luck might be illusory but it could sometimes determine a person’s destiny.

Tang Mo once thought that his luck wasn’t good. For example, the first time participating in an assembly instance, he was designated as a public enemy and had to fight against 19 first floor players with Fu Wenduo. However, he never really said that he had bad luck.

No players who could survive to the present had bad luck.

To be able to survive to the present after the earth went online, strength and luck were indispensable. Luck was even more important than strength. The returnees were people with very bad luck. Their strength wasn’t weaker than the Earth players but they couldn’t smoothly enter the game during the first three days. Then they were thrown into another world by the black tower and experienced a cruel survival.

Now Santa said that his die could increase people’s luck.

Tang Mo’s breathing was short but his expression was calm as he looked at the other players in the room.

The greedy and eagerness in their eyes couldn’t be completely hidden. The value of this die exceeded their imagination. If the owner wasn’t the powerful Santa Claus then there was no doubt that players would try their best to steal it.

Santa looked down at the players with a kind expression, not seeming to see the greed in te players. He laughed loudly, “My lovely children, come and roll the dice. Let this magic die give you luck. This is the only gift that Santa Claus can give you.”

No one dared to move first.

Desire made them all let down their guard and a player couldn’t help asking, “We just need to throw the die?”

“Of course. You just need to go up to it, pick up the die and throw it into the air. The magic die will land on a number and give this luck to you.”

The group looked at each other. Finally, someone couldn’t help gulping before walking up it. He carefully reached out and picked up the huge die. “Hey, it’s light.”

The weight of the die wasn’t as heavy as the player imagined. It seemed to be made of foam. The player picked up the die and threw it hard. The die rolled five times on the ground before revealing a number.

“Wow, what a lucky boy.” Santa touched his white beard. “You must be an honest boy so the magic die gave you a ‘5.’ Congratulations, my boy!”

A dazzling white light leapt from the number ‘5’ on the die and slammed into the player. The player subconsciously reached out to catch the white light and it became a small die in his head, each side of the die containing the number ‘5.’

The player was startled and asked, “Is this right?”

Santa nodded. “Of course, you have a big fortune. Is there anyone else who wants to try?”

The players let down their guard. “I’ll do it!”

Seven or eight players threw the die. The players who got big numbers smiled excitedly and the players who got small numbers were unhappy. Tang Mo was about to go and roll the die when a white figure appeared in front of him. Bai Ruoyao picked up the die and turned around, as if he just discovered that Tang Mo wanted to roll it.

The baby-faced youth made an innocent expression. “Tang Tang, do you want to roll the die?”

Tang Mo stared at him with no expression.

The baby-faced youth was very generous. “Then you roll the die first. After all, we are good friends right? “ There was a handsome smile on his face. This was purely a matter of rolling the die and the black tower couldn’t allow players to cheat. However, Tang Mo felt that as long as he took the die from Bai Ruoyao’s arms, his luck would be stolen by this snake.

Thus, he didn’t move and kept staring coldly at Bai Ruoyao.

The baby-faced youth held his chest, planning to cry that Tang Mo misunderstood him. He clearly wanted to be humble and didn’t intend anything bad. Unexpectedly, a pair of slender hands took the die out of his arms. Bai Ruoyao’s expression stiffened as he looked to the side.


The woman in Bblack grinned slightly, revealing white teeth.

“Then I will do it, Fly.”

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

Fly your sister!

Mu Huixue raised the die with one hand and threw it into the air.

The die fell onto the ground.

Mu Huixue muttered, “A 5? Not bad.” Then Mu Huixue handed the die to Chen Shanshan, who was standing not far away. Chen Shanshan didn’t understand why the returnee had noticed her and Mu Huixue smiled. “Let the children act first.” Then she placed her hands in her pocket and walked away. As she walked past Bai Ruoyao, she whispered, “Fly.”

Chen Shanshan pretended not to know Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo and threw the die. THe number was 5.

Fu Wensheng thew the die and the number was 2. The child’s face darkened and he pouted angrily.

Bai Ruoyao was excluded from the players’ circle. Fu Wensheng gave the die to a player he didn’t know. After a few more people, it was Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo’s turn. Tang Mo took a deep breath and threw the die into the air. His eyelids didn’t twitch when the number ‘1’ appeared in front of his eyes. He didn’t express his opinion and handed the die to Fu Wenduo.

Fu Wenduo had better luck and threw a ‘4.’

Finally, it was Bai Ruoyao’s turn.

The baby-faced youth threw it and the dazzling ‘6’ appeared in front of everyone.

Tang Mo glanced at Bai Ruoyao and Bai Ruoyao grinned back at him.

Santa waved his hand and the die returned to his magic bag. The players reluctantly watched him take it away but didn’t dare stop him.

Santa Claus said, “Now the children have received Santa Claus’ last gift. Then… all that is left is the last room in the candy house.” He leaned sideways and revealed a tall door. A hoarse and eccentric laugh emerged from Santa’s mouth. Tang Mo thought he heard wrong and looked at Santa Claus. The latter still had his kind appearance.

He saw the white-bearded old man in a red Christmas outfit laugh and shout “Merry Christmas” as he pushed open the door.

The door slowly creaked open. A dazzling white filled the eyes of every player and Tang Mo couldn’t help squinting. He saw that there was a huge rainbow lollipop floating in the middle of the room.

The size of this lollipop exceeded everyone’s imagination.

This was the ninth room that the players visited. The first eight rooms were the same size and the decorations were the same. Only the candies in the rooms were different. Now the ninth room was twice the size of the first eight rooms. and there was only the one lollipop in the room. It floated in mid-air.

A thick sugar scent filled the room. There was only one candy but its sweetness far exceeded the first eight rooms.

Santa Claus proudly introduced it, “This is my treasure, Santa’s lollipop! It is also a prop but it is too precious. The kids can’t touch it. If you touch it then I will be very angry.” Santa was still smiling when he said this but the players didn’t think he was joking. The hidden killing intent was creepy.

Santa Claus continued, “Many children in the Underground Kingdom dream of seeing this lollipop but I never allowed it. This is a magical lollipop and my proudest work. Even the great Schrodinger can’t make such a lollipop. Whether it is the sweetness of the sugar, the colours in the rainbow pattern or the number of circle layers, it is a perfect piece of art. Children, today you are lucky that I allowed you to visit this lollipop.”

They couldn’t touch the lollipop or Santa would be angry.

This seemed to be a death FLAG.

The players didn’t want to visit an untouchable lollipop but Santa Claus forced them to visit it. Everyone carefully stayed a few metres away from the lollipop, afraid to come near it in case something happened. Fortunately, no one touched it and Santa Claus took the group back to the door of the room.

Santa stood in front of the huge lollipop and said emotionally, “It has been a long time since I’ve seen such obedient and sensible children. You are so honest and kind. All good children should be happy. There are still three hours before the commercial street closes. Children, do you want to play a game?”


One player asked, “Will this game allow us to take away the luck given by the magic die?”

Santa Claus was surprised. “How can you take away the luck given by the magic die?”

The players were stunned.

The black tower said that Santa seemed to have a way to solve this problem. Now Santa Claus acted like he didn’t know. Was the black tower lying or was the word ‘seems’ meant to indicate that Santa didn’t know how to solve it?

A low male voice whispered in Tang Mo’s ears. “Santa Claus is very dishonest.”

Tang Mo nodded and looked at Fu Wenduo. “Is the game related to it?”

The two people looked at each other and understood the other person’s meaning.

It seemed that in order to take away the luck given by the magic die, players must participate in Santa’s game.

Santa Claus continued to act stupid and some players gradually found that this Santa Claus wasn’t a good boos. Someone asked, “What type of game is it?”

Santa’s words stopped as he looked down at the player who interrupted him. The dark eyes reflected the thin figure of a female player. Santa quietly watched her and saw that the female players’ legs softened and she also fell down. Santa Claus laughed again. “This is one of the most famous games in the Underground Kingdom.”

Tang Mo raised an eyebrow.

The honest card game, the happy quiz game… now there was one more famous game?

There were a lot of famous games in the Underground Kingdom.

Santa Claus explained, “Every year, many children come to my candy house to play this fun game. Now children, let us go back to the beginning of the game.”

Santa Claus led the 19 players back to the entrance in the same order that they visited the rooms. Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo walked through the nine rooms. Gradually, Tang Mo noticed a strange sense of familiarity.

Wait, the distribution of these rooms and the same size of the rooms. There were a total of nine rooms…

Tang Mo looked at Fu Wenduo with a stunned expression and saw that Fu Wenduo had the same awareness.

At this time, Santa laughed roughly, “Yes, it is Santa’s Hopscotch game!”

All players are stunned.

The hopscotch game had been played by more players.

It was a very popular childhood game. They only needed to use a stone to draw nine squares on the ground and it could be played anywhere.

Santa’s Candy House was a natural playground for it.

There were a total of nine rooms. The first three rooms were lined up separately while the fourth and fifth rooms were next to each other. The sixth room was separate while the seventh and eighth rooms were next to each other. Finally, there was the ninth room. This was the largest room and was twice the size of the front room because it included the area of the seventh and eight rooms.

The second time they walked through the house, Tang Mo found that the layout of the nine rooms was exactly the same layout as the hopscotch game.

Obviously, the players present have also played the hopscotch game. Santa didn’t seem to know that this game was very common and happily introduced the rules. “There was a child who wanted to play hide-and-seek in my candy house but it was too big. Three days later, I found his body in an ocean of chocolate beans. Since then, I’ve never let children play hide-and-seek in the candy store. I invented a fun game, hopscotch! Do you see these nine rooms?”

The group didn’t say anything but Santa wasn’t angry. He laughed and moved sideways. “This is your game field!”

Boom—

The ground shook violently and a deafening noise came from the walls of the candy house. It was as if they collapsed as they all sank below the ground. The original nine rooms disappeared and nine blue patterns the same size of the rooms appeared. These patterns were rectangular and the original things in the rooms were still present. The centre contained an image of a chocolate fountain, a glass sugar ball, strawberry ice cream…


The ninth room contained a huge lollipop..

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As if it was a special effect, blue numbers appeared one by one above the rectangles. Starting from the first room, it was 1, 2, 3… up to 9.

One player whispered to himself. “1, 2, 3, 45, 6, 78, 9, is this really hopscotch?”

Yes, it was really a hopscotch game.

Santa proudly introduced the game he designed. “This is a simple and fun game that can both exercise your body and make you more familiar with Santa Claus’ Candy House. Children, do you see the lucky die that you just received from the magic die?”

The group pulled out the small die they just received from their pockets.

Santa Claus explained, “This is your prop. Before you start the game, throw the dice into the grid you want to go to and then you can jump to that grid. However, pay attention. Your speed must be fast and you can’t step on the line of the grid. In each grid, you can only stay for one step and leave one footprint.”

Santa Claus touched his beard and lamented. “There is always a child who is particularly greedy. I gave him a lot of gifts and candy but he didn’t play well when playing the game He always wants to steal candy. That’s why I set this rule. You can’t stay in any room along the way. You can only eat something n the room that you throw the die into.”

Chen Shanshan asked, “What happens if we stay?”

Santa Claus replied, “What?” A sinister light appeared in his eyes. “Lovely little girl, what would you guess?”

Chen Shanshan closed her mouth and stopped talking.

Didn’t someone die in an ocean of chocolate beans from playing a game?

Then the answer was obvious.

Santa didn’t talk nonsense again. He pointed a finger at Bai Ruoyao, “This child, do you understand how to play the game?”

Bai Ruoyao showed a rare expression of surprise. “Is it me?” He seemed to be asking why him.

Santa Claus said, “I have discovered that like Santa, you are particularly fond of smiling. My lovely child, a smiling child doesn’t have bad luck.”

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

Bai Ruoyao was speechless but he still walked to the front. Santa said, “Take out your die and let me see if you understand this game. Here, let me show you.”

Bai Ruoyao twisted his wrist and a small die appeared between his fingers.

Santa Claus was surprised. “A number 6 die?”

Bai Ruoyao asked, “Do I demonstrate it directly?”

Santa asked, “Do you really understand?”

The baby-faced youth grinned at Tang Mo and Fu Wenduo before throwing the die.

The small die drew a large arc in the air. It was about to fall into the ninth room but then it slightly turned and ended up in the eighth room. The die landed with a clear sound and the next second, Bai Ruoyao’s feet kicked off and his body flew forward.

Like a vigorous cheetah, he easily avoided the candy in the room and jumped into the eighth room. There wasn’t one step more or one step less.

The tall baby-faced youth stood in the eighth room with his hands in his pocket. Then he waved at everyone.

The other players immediately noticed that the baby-faced youth shouldn’t be underestimated and became more vigilant.

Mu Huixue sighed. “He really is worthy of being called Fly.”

The smile on Bai Ruoyao’s face suddenly froze. He scoffed and jumped back to where he was originally standing.

Santa Claus said, “Yes, that’s it. You just entered the eighth room and it was lit up by you. Just throw the die into the rooms in the right order. Jump into the rooms again and again, turn back around, light up all the rooms and finish the game. You are such a clever boy.” His words ended and he looked at the other 18 players. “Do you understand the rules of the game?”

Bai Ruoyao said, “I didn’t see the room light up.”

Santa pointed to his eyes. “I saw it.”

A middle-aged man asked, “How do we win?”

Santa Claus replied, “Win?” He seemed to realize that there should be either victory or defeat in the game. The old man with the white beard touched his red hat and thought for a moment. “Then the first three children who clear the game will be counted as winning. However, you shouldn’t take your time. There are three hours until the Quirky Commercial Street is closed.”


Mu Huixue raised her hand. “There is only one map of the house. Who will start first?”

Santa touched his chin. “This seems to be a problem. Haha, no, this is simple. Who says that Santa Claus only has one map of the house? I clearly have more!” Santa waved his hands and two blue lights flew to both sides. They landed on the ground and instantly turned into two more house maps.

The first eight rooms of the two maps were exactly the same as the first map and they were at a 120 degree angle to the first map. The three maps formed a circle with the ninth room in the centre.

The starting points were inconsistent but it reached the same place.

There were now three maps and 19 players.

Santa didn’t wait for the players to ask questions as he called out loudly, “The children who rolled a 1 and a 6, come over to me.” Five players exchanged strange looks and walked up to Santa Claus.

“Those who rolled a 2 and a 5, come to my left.” Seven players stood to the left.

“Those who rolled a 3 and a 4, come to my right.” Seven players stood to the right.

Santa clapped. “See how simple it is to use these three maps? I’m sure that now every child will have a chance to play the game.”

Fu Wensheng stated, “No, this still doesn’t work.” The number he threw was a 2. He pointed to the six players around him and said, “We have a total of seven players in this group, seven. How will we decide who goes first and who goes afterwards? It is only three hours. Perhaps the last person won’t get a chance to play.”

“Believe me, there is a way to fix it, my lovely child.” Santa winked at Fu Wensheng.

Fu Wensheng was surprised. “But…”

Chen Shanshan stopped him. The little girl quietly stared at the smiling white-haired old man and said, “He’s right. We are divided into three groups and have our own means to decide who goes first.”

The smile on Santa’s face became more profound, as if acknowledging Chen Shanshan’s words.

The cruellest thing in this world wasn’t the black tower games or the black tower monsters. It was the human race itself.

A clear child’s voice was heard.

“Ding dong! The large assembly instance Santa Claus’ Quirky Commercial Street has officially opened the Santa Claus’ Hopscotch Game.”

“The rules of the game—”

“First, the player must use the lucky die to throw into any room. They can only jump to that room and then go back.”

“Second, stepping on the lines of the room or taking more than one step in the room counts as a foul. The game needs to start over again.”

“Third, players can throw the die into any house at will. However, it is only when they completely light up the nine rooms in the right order that the game will finish.”

“Fourth, props, abilities and violence are prohibited in the game.”

“Santa Claus hates bad children who steal candy but Santa Claus has his own opinion about what is stealing.”

The players were still trying to understand the black tower’s words when Santa reminded them, “Wow, 10 minutes has already passed. Children, you have 2 hours and 50 minutes left.”

The players no longer wasted time and walked to their respective maps.

As the three groups of players walked towards their maps, a blue light film rose from the ground and separated them. The players touched the light film with surprise. It was soft and elastic, but blocked the three groups of players from having contact with each other. Tang Mo said something to Fu Wenduo and Fu Wenduo shook his head.

No sound could penetrate the light film.

It seemed that Santa forbid players from communicating with each other.

The players put away their thoughts and moved to the entrance of the first room, waiting to toss the die and start the game.

“Hehe, this is fate Tang Tang.”

Tang Mo stared at the nine grids in front of him.

Bai Ruoyao wasn’t discouraged. He was like a piece of sugar as he moved in front of Tang Mo. “You see, I am a 6 and you are a 1. We are so lucky to be divided into the same group. This is fate.”


Tang Mo declared coldly, “There are a total of five players in this group.”

The implication was that he shared a fate with three other people as well.

Bai Ruoyao glanced at the three other people before finally looking at Tang Mo with a serious expression. “I only have you in my heart, Tang Tang.”

Tang Mo felt it was ridiculous. He hadn’t opened his mouth when he found that Bai Ruoyao’s smile suddenly stiffened. He followed Bai Ruoyao’s gaze and saw a tall woman standing at the blue light film. A handprint formed in the light film as she smiled at Bai Ruoyao and mouthed something.

『 Hello,Fly. 』

Bai Ruoyao, “…”

Tang Mo laughed.

For people like Bai Ruoyao, this was really the best way to suppress him. This person didn’t treat women as casually as men and didn’t like to joke with women.

Tang Mo understood that Mu Huixue was helping him. This powerful returnee seemed to love exciting things. She would gather whenever something became lively. She saw Bai Ruoyao teasing Tang Moa and didn’t hesitate to come over and kick him.

Tang Mo’s eyes stopped for a moment on the two children in Mu Huixue’s group.

There was Shanshan there so Fu Wensheng shouldn’t be bullied.

Fu Wenduo was alone but he definitely wouldn’t have any problems.

Tang Mo just needed to take care of himself.

Tang Mo took back his gaze and stared at the other people in his group.

By all accounts, rolling the die was a big probability event. When tossing a coin, the probability of throwing heads or tails was 0.5. When rolling a die, the probability of rolling each number was 1/6. However, that probability applied to big data. Now there were only 19 players. There were only five people who rolled a 1 and a 6, including Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao. There was a young woman who rolled a 6 and a middle-aged man who rolled a 1.

The final person who rolled a 1 was… Ning Zheng.

Tang Mo carefully examined Ning Zheng.

Since entering the candy house, Ning Zheng suppressed his sense of existence and didn’t communicate with any player. He seemed to be a transparent shadow that silently followed the crowd. Santa Claus let the players eat a chocolate cone and he ate one. Santa Claus lets players roll the die and he rolled it.

He just didn’t have any sense of existence.

If Tang Mo didn’t know who he was then he would think Ning Zheng was an ordinary player.

There were only five people in this group and normally the competition shouldn’t be as intense as other groups. Two hours of game time was enough for all five people to smoothly clear the game. However, Santa Claus said that only the top three in each other would be considered as winning.

This group might seem simple but perhaps it was more horrifying than the other two groups.

Tang Mo, Bai Ruoyao and Ning Zheng.

Tang Mo knew that none of them would let go of an opportunity. However, Tang Mo didn’t want to be the first person and Bai Ruoyao and Ning Zheng were the same.

The other two players looked between Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao, wondering if they intended to join hands.

Tang Mo didn’t explain. He just took care to angle his body away from Bai Ruoyao.

Due to their large numbers, the two other groups were deciding who would start first. Fu Wenduo and Chen Shanshan chose to stand to one side, giving up on the opportunity to play first. Mu Huixue also stood aside. She seemed to like children and stayed very close to Chen Shanshan and Fu Wensheng.

In Tang Mo’s group, the young woman couldn’t resist opening her mouth. “Who will be the first one?”

Bai Ruoyao smiled. “Ladies first.”

Ning Zheng didn’t talk. He just stared calmly at the group, seeming to give up on his chance.

Tang Mo was more direct. “I want to be first. Who else wants to play first?”

The young woman and the middle-aged man frowned. They hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.

Tang Mo turned to look at Ning Zheng. “What about you?”


Ning Zheng pinched his fingers and he said after a long time, “…I won’t participate.” It was an appearance of someone who experienced a big loss.

Tang Mo couldn’t help smiling and the young woman and middle-aged man stared at him strangely. Tang Mo kept smiling. He just through the Ning Zheng was very interesting. He discovered that the most powerful returnee in Beijing actually had a talent for acting. Unfortunately, his acting was a bit worse than Bai Ruoyao. If the woman and middle-aged man weren’t focusing on Tang Mo then they should be able to find Ning Zheng’s abnormalities.

The young woman said, “Right now, the three of us want to play the game first.”

The young woman seemed to be the weakest among the three. She directly reminded them, “The black tower prohibits props, abilities and violence.”

Bai Ruoyao smiled. “Violence can’t be used to torture a person but there are many other ways.”

The expressions of the two players changed.

Bai Ruoyao deliberately pointed to Tang Mo. “He is an expert at this.”

The two of them flinched back when they head this. Everyone had seen Tang Mo and Bai Ruoyao fighting when they left the small candy room. The two people had excellent skills. They are definitely senior players. The game could be played later and it wasn’t a big deal to go first. It wasn’t worth facing off against Tang Mo.

This way, the young woman and middle-aged man somewhat retreated, not wanting to fight with Tang Mo.

Tang Mo sneered. “Bai Ruoyao, are you provoking me?”

Bai Ruoyao was startled. He felt that the present Tang Mo was a bit different from what he knew. The baby-faced youth hid his doubts and kept smiling. “Tang Tang, I am clearing praising your cruelty.”

Was there such a compliment?

Tang Mo grinned. “Then do you want to see how cruel I am?”

Bai Ruoyao felt more and more that something wasn’t right. “I want to try it but Tang Tang, the black tower prohibits violence.”

“Didn’t you just say that I have many methods to torture a person without violence?”

Bai Ruoyao’s smile suddenly stopped.

The middle-aged man and the young woman immediately understood that the baby-faced youth had framed Tang Mo. These two were teammates at all and might be enemies.

Tang Mo wanted to mislead these two people and let them think that he and Bai Ruoyao were teammates, making them feel fear. However, things turned out like this and he declared, “I give up.”

The middle-aged man was surprised. “You are giving up? Why?”

Tang Mo turned and walked away. Once he was one metre away from Bai Ruoyao, he pulled out his small parasol at a very fast speed. There was the sound of air separating as the rounded umbrella tip arrived in front of Bai Ruoyao’s neck. The baby-faced youth was fearless as he smiled at Tang Mo.

“Violence is prohibited, Tang Tang.”

Tang Mo said, “I am sure that I can jump into every house without stepping on the lines. However, I can’t be sure that I won’t step on any lines in the case of someone messing around.”

Tang Mo gave up the opportunity to play the game to prevent Bai Ruoyao from ruining his turn.

It was convincing.

The middle-aged man thought something was strange but he couldn’t see it. He looked at the young woman.

Neither of them wanted to fight each other since they didn’t know the other person’s strengths. The middle-aged man suggested, “Rock, paper, scissors and the winner starts the game?”

“Okay.”

“Rock, paper, scissors!”

The middle-aged man won and he showed a hint of joy.

The fact that he dared to challenge the game first indicated that he had the strength to copy Bai Ruoyao and not step on any lines.

The numbers of the rooms twinkled in the air. The middle-aged man looked at the nine numbers and counted them in his heart. Then he took the die and threw it into the first grid. The man jumped in easily and then jumped back to the starting point.


The huge Santa Claus stood in the central ninth room and stroked his beloved giant lollipop. He suddenly shouted, “Look at what I see. A lovely child has already lit up a room.”

The other two groups were still arguing about who would start first due to their large size. They heard this and stared over at Tang Mo’s group.

They saw the middle-aged man happily throwing his die into the second grid.

The second grid was very simple. These squares might be the actual size of the rooms but with the physical fitness of the 19 players, they could basically jump out of a room while leaving only one footprint behind. The middle-aged man kicked off from the group, using the force to jump into the first grid and then the second grid.

He bent down to pick up the die that was on the ground. Then he turned and prepared to jump back. He had just jumped into the first room when the originally warm and gentle chocolate fountain in the middle suddenly surged.

The man’s eyes widened and he exclaimed, “No…” The surging black chocolate covered his head. The man didn’t have any ability and props and was caught in the flood.

The players watched with horror as the man kept struggling in the chocolate flood. The thick chocolate flood was so heavy that he couldn’t raise his head. The man inevitably left countless footprints in the room and the flood became fiercer. Soon, the flood washed him under the fountain.

Once the man’s body disappeared, the calm returned and only the sticky chocolate on the ground hinted at what just happened.

Santa’s voice could be heard by all players as he lamented, “Poor boy, why do you want to steal Santa’s chocolate?”

The young woman immediately shouted, “No, he didn’t touch the chocolate at all!”

Santa raised his head and stared at the young woman. After a while, he smiled strangely, “How do you know he didn’t? Child, I know that he wanted to steal my chocolate.”

“Santa Claus hates bad children who steal candy but Santa Claus has his own opinion about what is stealing.”

Cold water was poured onto everyone’s heads.

There used to be a child who died in the ocean of chocolate beans because he ‘stole’ a chocolate bean.

Now this middle-aged man died in the chocolate fountain and his body couldn’t be found. It was because Santa thought he wanted to steal the chocolate.

Tang Mo licked his lips and stared silently at the chocolate fountain before retracting his gaze.

Tang Mo, Bai Ruoyao and Ning Zheng never thought about playing first because they knew that Santa Claus wasn’t simple. This game could never be harmless.

It turned out that this game was really sinister.

There were nine rooms and to light up the rooms in order, the players had to jump in and out of the rooms. This meant that players had to pass through these rooms many times. No one knew if when they walked through this room, the candy lying quietly in the middle of the house would attack.

The players couldn’t touch the candy because touching it made Santa think they were stealing.

However, the candy could actively attack as long as Santa thought you were stealing.

Players were afraid and didn’t want to participate in the game anymore. However, the blue light frame trapped them and they couldn’t escape.

Chen Shanshan raised her head and asked calmly, “What happens if you fail the game?”

Santa cocked his head. “Failing the game…” There was a kind smile on Santa’s face but his dark eyes contained no light. “You guess, my lovely child.”

The players flinched and immediately retracted their feet.

Among the players, with the exception of the mysterious reserve player, everyone had at least cleared the first floor of the black tower. In fact, 18 players had at least cleared the second floor.

Since they couldn’t leave the game, they couldn’t only think about it.

The death of the middle-aged man was a warning and the four remaining people in his group were silence. The young woman didn’t dare play casually anymore and she retreated half a step. Unexpected, she saw three people coming forward and standing in front of the first house.


The young woman stared blankly at the three players.

The three of them clearly hadn’t wanted to start the game and gave the opportunity to her and the middle-aged man. How were they now stepping forward at the same time? The next moment, the young woman’s face turned white and resentment filled her eyes.

“…They used us as rats!”

Yes, Ning Zheng, Bai Ruoyao and Tang Mo had no intention of started the game. They wanted to watch the game and not be unprepared. The middle-aged man and young woman were eager to start and the other three didn’t block them.

The death of a middle-aged man was beyond Tang Mo’s expectations. He didn’t think a player would die so soon. He took his die and glanced at Ning Zheng and Bai Ruoyao.

Bai Ruoyao used the die as a stone and threw it into the air before catching it. “Tang Tang wants to play the game so quickly? Aren’t you afraid of me making trouble?”

Tang Mo replied casually, “It makes sense. Then you should go first and I will make trouble for you.”

Bai Ruoyao smiled.

The three people had long known each other and were wary of each other.

The other two groups had started to play. Only Tang Mo’s group was still. The young woman didn’t dare act rashly while the other three restricted each other, no one moving. Time passed before Bai Ruoyao walked in front of the house.

Tang Mo looked at him and asked, “Aren’t you afraid of me making trouble?”

Bai Ruoyao’s eyes narrowed. “I’m not the same as that man Tang Tang. The chocolate floor can’t kill me. From beginning to end, the chocolate flood was confined to that one room. As long as I escape from the room, it won’t be able to keep up with me. The other rooms are the same. Just leave them and you will be safe.”

The young woman suddenly had a realizing.

Tang Mo said, “Continue.”

Bai Ruoyao wondered, “Tang Tang, do you really want to kill me?”

Tang Mo didn’t speak.

Bai Ruoyao stared at him before suddenly smiling. “Hehe, then I will do it.” He threw the die and it landed on the first room. The dexterous figure flashed through. The young woman couldn’t see it clearly but Bai Ruoyao had already finished the first grid and turned to his original place.

Next was the second room.

It might be due to his good luck but Bai Ruoyao didn’t encounter any attacks as he jumped to the fourth grid. He returned to the start with a smile and threw the die into the fifth grid. Bai Ruoyao was as light as a swallow as he jumped into the fifth room. He picked up the dice on the ground and stepped on the soft marshmallow.

His right foot moved and Bai Ruoyao was about to jump out of the fifth house. His face hadn’t yet left the ground when his whole body became stuck.

There was a cold smile on Bai Ruoyao’s face. The marsh-like marshmallow frantically sucked at the human on it but this human stepped on the marshmallow like a light bird. Every time he tried to make a step, his feet would be sucked deeper into the marshmallow.

Due to this, Bai Ruoyao ended up jumping five times instead of the one time required to leave the room. The last jump caused his entire right foot to be sucked into the marshmallow. Bai Ruoyao took the initiative to pull out a beautiful silver butterfly knife and he cut off his trousers and shoes, jumping out of the fifth room.

Santa made an amazed cry and looked at Bai Ruoyao with surprise.

Once Bai Ruoyao returned to his original place, he turned and smiled at Tang Mo. “Hey Tang Tang, aren’t I powerful?”

Tang Mo didn’t care about him.

Bai Ruoyao looked at the young woman. “Tell me, wasn’t I great?’

The woman was horrified when she realized Bai Ruoyao’s strength and didn’t dare speak.

Bai Ruoyao was bored and threw the die into the sixth house, jumping forward again. Tang Mo glanced at Ning Zheng the moment Bai Ruoyao jumped and then Bai Ruoyao’s back.

Wait…

Tang Mo’s brain worked quickly as he watched the other two groups of players. Some were killed by a glass sugar ball and others were drowned by an ocean of chocolate beans. He gradually grasped the strange thing and saw that Bai Ruoyao was jumping into the sixth room.


Bai Ruoyao was the first player to jump into the sixth room. The other two groups of players could only make it to the fourth room before being attacked by the candy.

Bai Ruoyao moved lazily to the middle of the room, bending over to pick up the die. His hand had just touched the die when a child’s voice filled the commercial street, constantly echoing. The other two groups stopped their actions as they listened to the black tower’s prompt. They heard the black tower say calmly—

“Ding dong! The player Bai Ruoyao has successfully triggered the ‘Lucky Fighting Stage.’ Please select any players to go up to the stage and fight. The fighting time is five minutes. When fighting, players can use props but not their abilities. The winner’s die can be swapped with the loser’s die, swapping the luck.”

“Santa Claus likes this hidden big stage the best. Santa has something to say…”

“Hohoho, fight, fight!”

Santa couldn’t wait for the black tower to finish as he clapped his hands.
