"They're eating in the canteen; they look like they haven't eaten for quite a while," Wes reported back to Tang Mo's office, where he saw Tang Mo fiddling with a pile of copper wire coils.
Tang Mo had been tinkering with this thing whenever he had time, but Wes had no idea what it was actually used for.
But he had realized by now that Tang Mo was an inventor, and a terrifying one at that. Everything he created, apart from cigarette cases and lighters, seemed to have a potent effect capable of changing the course of civilization.
Seeing that Tang Mo didn't speak, Wes continued to ask, "Do you really plan to keep these orcs?"
Tang Mo didn't lift his head as he assembled several components together, only he knew that he was making the world's first telephone.
After piecing together the parts he needed, Tang Mo finally looked up and countered Wes's question, "I've kept John around, so why not give them a chance?"
