Free Web NovelWhy are you all speaking in such a sarcastic tone?
But it also seems like there isn't too much malice.
What's going on?
She doesn't seem to have offended them, right?
How could she know that Chu Kuangsheng had amassed such a huge amount of hatred for her, and it was the hatred of high-ranking, powerful figures.
If she knew, she would definitely sing a song!
Those who know, know.
“Let’s go.”
Mingxi listened and dismissed it, not taking these words to heart, and stepped onto the Chess Bridge with Wang Chen.
As she stepped onto the Chess Bridge, Mingxi didn't feel any obstruction or repulsive force.
She just noticed that the Chess Pieces she was stepping on were faintly glowing.
She raised an eyebrow and looked beside her.
The Illusionary River has rule restrictions; all living beings can only cross on the Chess Bridge.
Therefore, neither Flight Pet Beasts nor the four major super-ability systems can use abilities like Flight or levitation.
They must walk on solid ground.
What?
No feet?
Then crawl across!
So Golden Yuanbao and the others were all walking on their own ‘legs’ at this time.
Oh, Little Silver Flower was slithering.
Its claws hadn't fully developed yet, and it didn't like walking on its ‘legs’.
Also, due to the size of the Pet Beasts, the Chess Piece touched by their foremost body part would be the determining factor.
However, for convenience, most Pet Beasts were in their shrunken state at this time.
Mingxi noticed that every Chess Piece they walked over also glowed, but the light was very faint and not obvious.
What's going on?
The information didn't say that the Chess Pieces on the Chess Bridge would glow?
Mingxi looked at the feet of the other people ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) again.
The Chess Pieces under these people's feet were also glowing.
“Golden Yuanbao, do you notice anything?” She gestured with her eyes towards her feet.
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Golden Yuanbao, who was connected to her thoughts, immediately understood her meaning.
It shook its head.
So only she could see it?
She thought for a moment, stopped, and began to concentrate on the Chess Pieces beneath her feet.
The scene before her eyes gradually changed.
Dashed lines, solid lines, dots, patterns...
It appeared!
‘Text’ similar to the Return Nest light pillar from before.
Mingxi's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that the Chess Bridge and the Return Nest use the same rules?
Is it possible that these lines, dots, and patterns combined truly form a type of writing? Perhaps even a rule-based writing?
Then could she find a way to decipher them? And thereby uncover the hidden secrets of the Chess Bridge?
The gains within the Chess Palace Secret Realm are closely related to the Chess Bridge.
It can even be said that the number of spirit chess determines the amount of gains from this Secret Realm trip!
Just rely purely on luck like others?
She wasn't worried; even if she and Golden Yuanbao were unlucky, didn't she still have Little Silver Flower and Lan Yue?
But if she could rely on her strength, why rely on vague luck?
Once certain thoughts arise, they are difficult to suppress.
“Golden Yuanbao, Little Silver Flower, Lan Yue, stop for now.”
The three never questioned her decisions, stopping immediately and standing to her left and right.
Mingxi was not an indecisive person; once she made a decision, she began to think of ways to implement it.
She observed the situations of the other people. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Whenever someone stepped on a Chess Piece.
The Chess Piece would glow in her eyes, and then transform into ‘text’.
At first, the ‘text’ appeared very slowly, and her brain still throbbed with a dull ache.
But as she gradually adapted to the dull ache in her brain, the speed at which the ‘text’ materialized increased significantly.
Finally, her eyes could completely keep up with the moving speed of those people.
Some ‘texts’ were identical, some were similar, and some were completely different...
Finally, based on the spirit chess obtained by these people.
Mingxi roughly identified five of the ‘texts’.
‘Star’, ‘Valor’, ‘Empty’, ‘Rebound’, and ‘Forbidden’.
Mingxi deduced that they respectively represented Star Spirit Chess, valor spirit chess, Empty Chess, Rebound, and Forbidden Entry.
As for the other jumbled ones, with her current ability, she really couldn't determine them.
Of course, these five ‘texts’ were only her conjectures and could not be 100% confirmed.
The problem now is that she can currently only see the ‘text’ represented by the Chess Pieces that are stepped on.
But unless bounced off the Chess Bridge, the Chess Bridge can only move forward, not backward, not even parallel.
This also means that if she wants to accurately find ‘Star’ and ‘Valor’, someone must scout ahead.
Especially the latter half.
Due to vision and distance.
Some Chess Pieces she couldn't see clearly.
“Mingxi? Why aren't you moving? Could it be... you can't go forward anymore?”
Wang Chen and his Zui Qiu were already standing in the middle of the bridge at this time, noticing that Mingxi hadn't followed, and turned around to find Mingxi still standing motionless at the bridgehead.
Mingxi noticed the worry and regret on his face.
He was indeed a pure young man.
She thought for a moment and said, “Classmate Wang Chen, you stand there and don’t move for now.”
Although Wang Chen was puzzled, he still nodded.
Mingxi repeatedly recalled the ‘text’ from when those people stepped on the Chess Pieces earlier.
After determining the route, she said to Jin Yinlan, “You follow my steps. Whichever Chess Piece I step on, you follow and step on it too. Don’t step on the wrong one.”
If a Pet Beast steps on ‘Forbidden’ and ‘Rebound’, it will also implicate the Beast Tamers.
Although Beast Tamers will not be bounced back or prohibited from passing because of this, they should have spirit chess deducted.
That's why those Beast Tamers obtained so little spirit chess.
Of course, if a Pet Beast steps on ‘Star’ and ‘Valor’, it will also benefit the Beast Tamers.
Risks and opportunities are fifty-fifty.
For an unlucky one like Golden Yuanbao, if it walked this Chess Bridge normally, it would be safer to stay in the Pet Space.
But now that Mingxi was relying on brute strength, there was no need to hurt Golden Yuanbao's feelings.
Jin Yinlan nodded with a low cry.
Although they were all very curious, they understood that this was not the time for explanations.
With over two hundred people ‘scouting’ ahead, although those ‘texts’ were obscure and hard to remember, Mingxi had an excellent memory.
For the first half of the Chess Bridge, she knew almost exactly which Chess Piece was ‘Star’ and which was ‘Valor’.
Soon, she reached Wang Chen's side.
“Wang Chen, I have a method that might increase your chances of obtaining spirit chess. Are you willing to try it?”
Before Wang Chen could ask, Mingxi spoke first.
Wang Chen was stunned.
“Are you serious? You’re not joking with me?”
“Yes.” Mingxi nodded, “But I must say upfront, I cannot guarantee that you will 100% reach the other side of the river.”
She paused, then added, “But if you can reach it smoothly, you will at least obtain more than 20 spirit chess.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Chen was greatly shocked.
More than 20 spirit chess?
That exaggerated?
What method did she have?
The Chess Palace Secret Realm had appeared for over nine hundred years, and he had never heard of a method to increase the spirit chess acquisition rate.
But he always felt that Mingxi wasn't lying to him; there was no need to.
Moreover, he had a strange premonition, always feeling that if he refused, he might regret it for the rest of his life!
He always trusted his intuition, so he didn't think for too long, nodded and said, “I'll try. What do I need to do?”
Mingxi was very satisfied with his answer.
Her new classmate was a kind, decisive, and sensible person.
Although she was somewhat using him to scout, what she said was not false.
“You and Zui Qiu just need to follow my instructions and step on the Chess Pieces later.”
“Okay.”
“Then get ready; I’m about to start.”
