However, this time it did attract a large crowd, including many young people and adults.

"If you are bringing your children to participate, you can ride the Gale Beast to watch the entire treasure hunt from the air."

"As for the participants, please come this way."

The staff began making arrangements, and you could see many Gale Beasts waiting to be ready, with seats set up on their backs.

Lin Chen followed the entrance to the competition and soon saw an acquaintance.

How could Qin Hao and his group miss such a great opportunity to get freebies? Even Bai Jiajia, the little rich girl, came along.

"Brother Lin, now that you're here, what are we going to do?" Qin Hao's lips twitched when he saw Lin Chen.

Malicious team formation is prohibited in this competition, but direct combat is allowed.

In other words, it's permissible to steal from others.

Setting up checkpoints for treasure hunting is precisely Lin Chen's strength as an analytical maniac; now, we also have to be wary of him trying to steal it.

"Brother Lin Chen, you won't take mine, right?" Bai Jiajia's eyes were brimming with tears.

"I definitely won't snatch it," Lin Chen nodded. Bai Jiajia was overjoyed and wanted to continue acting cute, saying that Brother Lin Chen was the best. However, she said, "If Xiaobai sees that it's a valuable item, I'll have a hard time controlling it."

Bai Jiajia's smile froze.

Qin Hao and the others burst into laughter.

Xiao Bai was completely confused, thinking to himself that he wasn't a little fox and wasn't greedy for money, so why would Lin Chen say that he was hard to control?

Soon, the staff began assigning people by drawing lots and distributing maps.

Finally, to ensure absolute fairness in the competition, random drops were conducted from the air.

"Well then," the staff member said, seeing that all the participants had mounted their Gale Beasts, "let's begin."

"Don't worry, this time the design is much more difficult. No matter how smart Lin Chen is, he definitely won't be able to come up with it."

Three people were sitting on a swift beast: Li Zhen, Huang Xiaotian, and Tang Xuehai.

Firstly, they were the project leaders this time, and secondly, they were also very interested in seeing how these people would decipher the challenges they had set up.

However, they will definitely follow Lin Chen from the start, since he is Li Zhen's "thorn in the side".

Tang Xuehai didn't object. Lin Chen had only been in contact with the inner academy twice and had already beaten up two classes of students. Tang Xuehai was also eager to see what kind of magic this person possessed.

Following them all the way to the southeast region, Lin Chen was placed there.

When I landed, there was no one around me.

Lin Chen took out the map, glanced at it, and began to analyze it.

First, it's about pushing people.

"Given Li Zhen's personality, he probably wouldn't place treasures at the drop-off point."

"Although he likes contrast, the goal this time is to make the participants have fun, so it's unlikely that it will be set up like this."

Lin Chen analyzed the situation quietly and finally chose a path at random.

"The analysis is quite good." Through the eavesdropping of the Ghostly Beast, Tang Xuehai heard Lin Chen's analysis for the first time and said with surprise.

Li Zhen remained calm this time and said, "Don't rush, the best is yet to come."

The ruins weren't very large this time, but Lin Chen and his group were walking, so it would definitely take them quite a while.

However, before Lin Chen could even encounter any people or checkpoints, problems arose elsewhere.

Staff reported that there was a beast tamer in the northwest who specialized in "robbery" and was doing his best to eliminate dissidents. However, in just two hours, six beast tamers had already met their demise.

"Are there any casualties?" Tang Xuehai asked.

"The injuries were minor, but we managed to save them all; they're not serious," the staff member replied.

What level is the opponent?

"The spirit beast is level eighteen."

Upon hearing the number eighteen, the three were no longer surprised.

This time, the restrictions on the ruins are for Beast Tamers below level 10, with level 18 being the top level.

No wonder he wanted to clear everyone out as soon as he came in.

It wasn't written in the rules that players couldn't be eliminated in this match, since it's a tactical maneuver.

"Keep him under close surveillance, as long as he doesn't hurt anyone, that's fine," Tang Xuehai said.

"Yes." After receiving the instruction, the staff member left again.

Amidst the minor commotion, Lin Chen finally found the first hurdle.

However, five people had already gathered there. They sat on the ground, took out paper and pens, and were writing and drawing seriously, occasionally whispering to each other:

"That's definitely the case."

Immediately afterward, the man stepped forward, and Lin Chen followed his gaze, seeing a stone gate outside a small hill. The stone gate was divided into many small squares, each covered with a pattern of divine foxes, and each square was numbered.

"A jigsaw puzzle?" Lin Chen stared in disbelief and said, "These two are really talented."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhen and Huang Xiaotian, who were in the air, immediately smiled.

This puzzle has a total of thirty-one pieces, and can only be pushed horizontally in four directions: up, down, left, and right, making it extremely difficult.

Just three minutes later, the man who had been so confident earlier covered his head and said, "Who the hell came up with this terrible idea? It's so annoying, I really want to smash it."

Lin Chen sat quietly to the side, also writing and drawing.

"See, we've been tricked." Li Zhen chuckled smugly.

Unexpectedly, ten minutes later, Lin Chen got up and walked towards the stone gate.

"So fast?" the three asked in surprise.

However, someone ahead of him walked ahead and said, "Dude, line up, ten minutes each."

Lin Chen nodded.

The man struggled for ten minutes without success, and finally, in anger, he punched Shimen. Then, he deliberately sabotaged the puzzle by scrambling all the pieces together.

Lin Chen didn't care. He stepped forward, took the paper, glanced at the stone door, and said, "Xiao Bai, do it."

Immediately afterward, he covered his ears, and Xiaobai activated Iron Horn Impact, ramming into him violently.

Boom~~~
The stone door shattered instantly under the impact of the iron horn, revealing a small space inside.

"Hey buddy, what are you doing? Are you done playing?" The man who had left earlier immediately turned back.

The others were also drawn in and immediately stood up.

Lin Chen ignored him, but the man got excited and said, "Speak."

"This is the correct answer." Lin Chen had no intention of making a move.
Li Zhen explained that this time, Jiuxing City should leave a civilized impression on outsiders, so locals should try not to take action if possible.

"How long would it take to complete all 31 pieces of the puzzle?"

Everyone realized what was happening.

Lin Chen walked past him, preparing to go on his way.

Unexpectedly, the man grinned mischievously and said, "Thank you for your answer."

Ok?
Is this a robbery?

Lin Chen squinted and looked up at the sky.

Chairman Li.
That's not my fault.

Lin Chen snapped his fingers, and Xiao Bai immediately came to Lin Chen's side.

Then, Lin Chen walked straight inside without turning his head.

The man sneered, "A mere ploughshare beast dares to show off its meager skills in front of me?"

Lin Chen went inside and found a divine fox egg inside.

He wasn't surprised.

This time, the ruins are themed around divine foxes, so most of the items are inevitably related to divine foxes.

He grabbed it and turned to leave.

When they went outside, they saw that Xiao Bai had already defeated the opponent's spirit beast in one move, without any difficulty at all. The beast tamer looked at Lin Chen with a pale face: "What kind of bull is that?"

Lin Chen ignored him and instead looked at the others, saying, "Are you going to steal it too?"

The others remained silent.

They had witnessed Xiaobai's fighting prowess firsthand; risking everything for a divine fox egg was simply not worth it.

Seeing that no one answered them, Lin Chen simply left.

Li Zhen and the other two in the air fell silent.

Because breaking through the stone gate is the correct answer.

"Didn't you say Lin Chen would never have thought of this?" Tang Xuehai looked at Li Zhen.

"..." Li Zhen was silent for a moment, then said smugly, "It's okay, he didn't finish the puzzle and lost the clues."

Unexpectedly, Huang Xiaotian smiled wryly:
"You're wrong, he has already finished the puzzle."

"impossible."

"Look what he's holding."
