Chapter 3997: Challenge of Intelligence II
?
"Begin!"
The voice rang out, and the people jumped toward the tforms immediately.
Only three on my tform didn''t. a purple-skinned woman, that man from the Golden Prime organization, and me.
We kept looking at the tower and floating tforms, which had started moving.
The way they moved surprised everyone.
Some are fast, some are slow. Some moved up, and some moved, some left, and some moved. Some seemed to move totally erratically.
People moved on them, jumping tform after tform, but jumped fast enough and didn''t predict it well as they fell down.
On the tform, two people jumped and the other decisively kicked him out, letting him fall. There is no ground beneath us.
I was thinking about whether these people died or ended up somewhere, one of the people who jumped and fell appeared on the tform.
It made me relieved, and also the person, who had appeared.
No one wants to die and now knowing there is no death. People would take even greater risks, including me, but it would also increase the difficulty of the challenge.
A minute passed, and suddenly, all the floating tforms changed their behavior.
Their behavior was already erratic, but it turned different type of erratic.
''I am right, there is a pattern.'' I thought, seeing the sudden change, and focused more.
Concentrating on each tform before looking at together.
I do not care about people going higher with some breaching through the clouds. With the number of people falling down, it would be an idiocy, to start climbing without understanding those things.
Those people that went up are lucky. If they don''t understand the pattern, they will fall down eventually.
Minutes passed, and I continued studying them. I am making progress, but it is slow.
If I had some help from my clones. I would find the pattern already.
It''s fine. This way, it is more challenging. My clones may be good, but I am capable as well.
Ten minutes passed, and I was still on the tform, while those beside me at least jumped on the tform once. Though many had fallen down and back on the tform.
There is no single person, who hasn''t gone up and fallen down on my tform.
It is not just erratic tforms that make things difficult, but also people.
They are pushing each other out and with everyone''s strength being the same, it bes a challenge to deal with the person who wants to push you.
''So this is the pattern,'' I said as the things became clear to me finally.
With that done, I wasted not even a second and jumped on the tform, which started to fall immediately, but I only stayed on it for a moment before jumping into the one moving left
fast.
These pieces are moving fast, but everyone here is Sky Sovereign.
Even the luckiest one had worked hard to reach this state. This means they are good; their bnce is good.
With the power we have; it would be really hard to maintain the bnce for those below us. Second and a halfter, I jumped and jumped again immediately, before waiting on the tform for seven seconds as it took me up and jumped again.
It''s quite exciting, and I am having fun.
A minute passed, and I jumped on another tform, but another person jumped from a different direction.
Thud Thud!
We bothnded at the same time and looked at each other.
"We don''t have to fight," I said to the blue-horned man, and he nodded before kicking me.
I sighed internally and jumped, avoiding his kick, before kicking his chest hard and using it
jumped on the left tform, while the man cursed as he fell down.
He didn''t have to attack me. We would have both used that tform.
I have seen many people sharing it, but those are a minority of them. Most people would
attack each other the moment theynded on the same tform.
It''s such a waste of time; it''s better to work together to reach high.
We can fight all we want after reaching the top.
Soon, I reached the clouds and tform, I was shot through it, taking me above it.
''As expected,; the challenge would be easy,'' I said myself.
Many might think the clouds are the end, but they are not. It would be too easy; a challenge that could be finished within half an hour, while the time is for twelve hours.
Most importantly, it is a challenge of intelligence. No luck.
There are many lucky people who were able to breach through easily without understanding
the pattern. They would even reach, the second cloud with their luck.
If I am not wrong. The challenge would be difficult enough, that even luck wouldn''t be
enough to cross it.
Minutes passed, and soon, I had reached the second cloud.
As I passed through it, I saw the thirdyer of clouds waiting for me above.
It put a smile on my face.
"It wouldn''t be easy," I said and jumped on the tform. I like it very much; it will make thepetition interesting.
Hundreds of people are jumping up toplete this challenge first. Many seemed to
understand the pattern and moving fast.
I didn''t move too fast.
Instead of speed, I focused on understanding things. As I am sure, the creator of the challenge
had nned something more.
If it didn''t, I would be really disappointed in the creator.
A few minutes passed, and I jumped on another tform that took me up.
I breached through the clouds through. I like to breach the tform, with those that go up; they lowered the risk in the cloud, that are thick.
Hun!
I felt something, as the tform suddenly sped up. I looked at other tforms around me and what I saw couldn''t help, but bring a big smile to my face.
"Very good," I said with a toothy grin.
Now, I am sure, this challenge will not be simple at all. It is going to make a lot of people curse in frustration, while some, like me, will grin in joy.
