As long as we don't talk about anything inappropriate or harmful to the kids in the group, it's fine.

In fact, Chen Li was also surprised that his friend Ruan Mei had not been sacrificed.

Perhaps... after the user base shifted, Moments prioritized the relationships between the current user and others, sacrificing the relationships with strangers?

The relationship between Heita and Nguyen Mai is self-evident.

"Where is the Black Tower?"

Ruan Mei looked around and saw only Screw Gumu and Chen Li drinking tea (or engine oil) together, but she couldn't see Black Tower or the Black Tower doll.

"He caused trouble and ran away," Chen Li said irritably.

Chen Li still doesn't understand why Black Tower could still consume 12 Friendship Bonds after using the Joyful Dice to make Polka Kaka suffer a great misfortune.

You should know that after this item in the "Friends Circle" is upgraded to a one-star item, although its defensive function hasn't fundamentally changed, it gains a three-second invulnerability effect after each fatal attack it withstands... meaning it's immune to all damage. During this time, being attacked won't consume "Friends," unless the attack's intensity exceeds the one-star item's maximum tolerance.

But if Polka Kaka's attack exceeds the tolerance limit of a one-star artifact, Chen Li will twist off the Black Tower's head and use it as a ball for Polka Kaka to kick!

Therefore, Black Tower didn't just make 12 mistakes, but probably made countless mistakes.

Therefore, Chen Li was very surprised at how Black Tower managed to do it.

Could it be that even knowing the opponent could trigger your legendary sword effect with a single strike, you still walk right up to them to taunt them?

No... that can't be, right?

It doesn't seem impossible.

Of the 12 Friendship Bonds consumed by the Black Tower, Chen Li has already replenished the Friendship Terminals for the other players. Now, the Friendship Terminals have been reduced in cost and increased in efficiency; each terminal only requires one Star Stone to 3D print.

Only the unlucky little Silver Wolf, who is probably still catching up on sleep, remains out of contact.

Now Chen Li is about to solve this problem.

Chen Li picked up Ruan Mei's phone and began engraving words with the Miracle Crystal.

Both Luo Sigumu, who had seen Chen Li's "engraving technique" several times, and Ruan Mei, who had never seen it before, were curious about this technique, so they both crowded around Chen Li.

"Done! Send!" After sketching for a while, Chen Li clicked "Publish".

"Attention, Silver Wolf of Star Core Hunter, Silver Wolf of Star Core Hunter, your mother has given you your favorite game console and put it in the usual place. Please check it." Upon seeing this message, Ruan Mei and Screw Gum spoke in unison, under the influence of the miracle's power, revealing the content of the message Chen Li had just released.

"Screw Gum, you need to quickly put the new WeChat Moments terminal at the place where you gave the terminal to Silver Wolf last time. This time, I'll give you two!" Chen Li said, handing two WeChat Moments terminals to Screw Gum.

“…Okay.” Screw Gum nodded.

"I'm sure she'll be very touched that I went to so much trouble to notify Silver Wolf to pick up the WeChat Moments terminal. What can I do? I care about every single friend in my WeChat Moments," Chen Li said emotionally.

"......" by Screw Gum.

Based on Screw's understanding of that hacker girl, if Silver Wolf was still catching up on sleep, hearing this news would wake him up in anger. And if Silver Wolf was already awake, hearing this news would make him faint from anger.

"Ruan Mei, you can delete this message now. As for what kind of message to send, you can decide for yourself," Chen Li said after handing the phone back to Ruan Mei.

"Hmm." Having experienced the influence of the original script so closely for the first time, Nguyen Mai felt her eyes had been opened.

Just like Screws and Black Tower, Nguyen Mai also issued a supplementary statement.

Ruan Mei: [Sorry, my account was just hacked by Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf. How could Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf be so mean!]

"???" Looking at the statement that Ruan Mei herself had edited and sent, Chen Li looked at Ruan Mei in surprise, then at the message, and then at Ruan Mei again.

No, buddy!

Don’t you even try to act?

While the explanations following both the meme-level messages from Screwgoom and Black Tower were perfunctory, this time, the message specifically named Silver Wolf and claimed that the account was stolen by Silver Wolf...

Chen Li is now starting to think about how to explain to Silver Wolf so that Silver Wolf can believe that this resentment message was really sent by Ruan Mei, and not his own idea.

Ruan Mei, I originally thought only that guy Black Tower could come up with such an abstract piece of work, but I never expected that you, Ruan Mei, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, could also be so abstract!

"What, is there a problem? I saw that the explanation was the same the first two times. Isn't this a standard template?" Ruan Mei asked softly after sending the message, seeing Chen Li's hesitant expression.

"Did you do it on purpose or by accident?" Chen Li could only manage to utter this question after a long pause.

“I thought this was a regular thing between you and Silver Wolf. Do you need me to clarify this for you?” Ruan Mei asked with a light laugh.

"Never mind, that's fine. Let it be. I hope Silver Wolf will believe that I didn't instigate this resend of the message." Chen Li sighed.

Can Silver Wolf be trusted?

Probably not.

"By the way, Ruan Mei and Luo Sigu, did you two click on the resurrection card link? How's your progress in collecting resurrection card fragments?" Chen Li thought that since he was unhappy, he might as well find a way to make everyone unhappy, so he brought up this topic.

Unsurprisingly, both Slughum and Nguyen Mai fell silent when faced with this topic.

"Question: Chen Li, are you sure you didn't secretly adjust the drop rate of resurrection card fragments?" Screw Gum spoke first.

"Of course not. If I didn't want you to revive the people you wanted to revive, wouldn't it have been better to just block you during the approval of the revival cards? Why would I block you during the process of collecting all the revival cards?" Chen Li said innocently.

“That’s the problem with the strange object; perhaps that’s part of the price,” Ruan Mei sighed.

As an expert in the field of life sciences, having actually tried to resurrect her deceased parents, disregarding the nature of biological reincarnation, and even attracting the attention of the learned and respected genius, Nguyen Mai understands all too well the price that must be paid to resurrect a life.

"So how many resurrection card fragments have you two collected? And which fragment are you missing?" Chen Li asked curiously.

As the only designated VIP in the revival competition, Chen Li has the privilege of being revived simply by watching a 30-second ad. In addition, Chen Li is really busy, so he has never tried to collect revival card fragments. Therefore, he has no idea how incredible the drop rate of the last revival card fragment is.

“I currently have 89 fragments, of which, except for fragment number 7, there are between 7 and 10 fragments of each number,” Screw Gum said.

“I currently have 369 fragments. Apart from fragment number 3, the probability of the other fragment numbers appearing is relatively average,” Nguyen Mai said.

"369 fragments? Hmmm... May I ask, what are your current impressions of the Black Tower and the Robin?"

369 fragments is equivalent to watching ads non-stop for more than 3 hours, and you can't look away while watching ads, otherwise you will be redirected to the product page.

Watching three hours of ads sounds easy, but because the missing piece is never revealed, it greatly diminishes one's patience, making the viewing experience incredibly frustrating.

Therefore, Chen Licai asked Ruan Mei about her feelings regarding the Robin and the Black Tower, which had taken over all the advertising space yesterday and today.

"There's nothing wrong, what's wrong?"

"Don't you find watching ads annoying? Especially when these two people's ads keep appearing."

"Although Miss Robin's singing is different from my favorite music, it is still pleasant to listen to, and the Little Black Tower's advertisement is also cute, so I don't find it annoying." Ruan Mei shook her head.

Chen Li was truly confused now. Was it because Ruan Mei was too patient, or because the revival match ad link itself had an anti-annoyance effect?

In short... the advertising effect is definitely going to be great!

"Ruan Mei?" The door to the room where Chen Li and the others were located opened automatically, and Hei Ta strode in with an air of indifference. When he saw Ruan Mei, his eyes lit up and he walked over, hugged Ruan Mei directly, and then rubbed against Ruan Mei's belly.

"What's wrong, Black Tower?" Ruan Mei was somewhat surprised by the unusual behavior of the Black Tower doll.

“Call me the One Black Tower,” Black Tower corrected.

"Why are you interested in the name suggested for you by the contributors to the Erudite Society? Didn't you already refuse?" Nguyen Mai asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Never mind that for now, just lower your head." Little Black Tower beckoned.

"What's wrong?" Ruan Mei asked, puzzled but still heeding the advice of the little black tower.

Hei Ta remained silent, only wrapping his arm around Ruan Mei's shoulder with his doll-like arm, then bringing their faces very close together, while looking expectantly at the closed automatic doorway.

The automatic door reopened the next moment.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing..." After the Big Black Tower manipulated the Black Tower puppet to walk in, he was about to say something when he saw the Little Black Tower holding Ruan Mei looking at him with a smug expression.

"You... Little Black Tower, what are you doing?" Big Black Tower was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, that's the expression! I've been wanting to see that look of jealousy and astonishment on your face!" Little Black Tower, hugging Ruan Mei, laughed heartily.

"Click!" Chen Li pressed the shutter, freezing this scene forever.

The puppet controlled by the large, brooding black tower; the small black tower laughing wildly while embracing Ruan Mei; and Ruan Mei, who may have known about it but let it all happen...

"This is art!" Chen Li said with absolute certainty to the screw Gum beside him.

Chen Li decided to name the photo "The Tower's Smile".

Chapter 171 The Big Black Tower Stuck in the Trash Can

"You two are really something, and Ruan Mei too, don't join in their nonsense either." After sitting down again, Black Tower called out Chen Li and Little Black Tower by name.

At the same time, he complained about Nguyen Mai, who was aware of the situation but allowed it to happen.

“Machine Soul, what an interesting concept. Although it doesn’t overlap with my field of research, I’m still very interested.” Ruan Mei held her teacup while also looking at the little black tower sitting between herself and Chen Li.

"Chen Li, stop eating! Where is Luo Sigumu going so fast?" The big black tower, who hadn't installed a feeding module on the puppet he possessed, looked at Chen Li, who was eating the pastries brought by Ruan Mei, with a resentful expression.

You better leave some for me!

"You have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for the fact that you used up 12 bonds for Moments, ScrewGumu wouldn't have had to go back to Screw Star and then send the Moments terminal to Silver Wolf via express delivery from Screw Star," Chen Li complained.

Chen Li still couldn't understand how Black Tower's royal flush could be instantly defeated by Silent Lord's 17 cards!

How did you manage to have your famous sword shattered 12 times while holding so many rare items?

"Ahem, I didn't use any kind of power to prevent the other party from quickly recognizing that I was the one toying with her. I could only dodge with my physical abilities. But you know how physical abilities a doll has..." Black Tower said embarrassedly.

The fact that Black Tower could feel embarrassed proves that Black Tower really didn't do anything wrong.
