Chapter 101 #100 There’s something wrong with the number! [2900 monthly tickets plus more]

The twelve rubbings were divided into three rows and neatly placed on the floor.

Violet didn’t give too many hints. She simply said that “meaningful images” were hidden among the messy lines, and that the twelve hidden images were related to each other.

Apart from this, there are no other clues.

Xu Mu was not very interested in the rubbing in front of him. He glanced at it twice, and after a moment his eyes hurt because of the gaudy and illogical messy lines on it.

only--

"Ok?"

Xu Mu keenly felt a cool sensation in his brain, as if someone had applied medicated oil on his temples.

He skillfully opened the panel and found that his "wisdom" attribute had increased by 1 point.

This……

Is this the power of "training rubbings"? Just glancing at them and not noticing anything can increase their attributes?

Violet, she lives up to her reputation!

but.

"The Underworld Champion's attribute bonus has nothing to do with my base stats. It's solely related to my health, which is a completely fixed value... Compared to the thousands of points of intelligence in my strongest form, this '1 point of intelligence' bonus is negligible and completely worthless."

Because the Hades Fighter is too strong and the attribute enhancement comes too easily, Xu Mu does not have much motivation to become stronger.

Laziness is one of the seven deadly sins.

It's a bad habit that everyone has.

It is only human nature that Xu Mu is unwilling to put in the effort to become stronger.

He sat there for a moment, then pondered, "Even a small mosquito is still meat, and I have to prepare for a rainy day. After all, 'Underworld Fighter' is my compensation from the Lonely King. What if one day my save file is restored, will she take back this class?"

Um--

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

Humanity is: be prepared.

Anyway, there is nothing much to do now. It is a rare opportunity to pick up attributes for free, so it is safer to seize it.

True.

An attribute increase of one, two, five, or ten points is of no great value to Xu Mu now.

But being stronger is still being stronger. Instead of wasting your youth, why not seize it?

Thinking of this, Xu Muqiang perked up and carefully observed rubbing No. 1.

plus one.

plus one.

After increasing wisdom by ten points, the attribute addition suddenly slows down.

Originally, I added a little bit every minute, but now I only add a little bit every five minutes.

Eye!

My eyes hurt!

Logically speaking, looking at this kind of rubbings all the time will damage your eyesight, right?

Xu Mu rubbed his eyes.

Also rubbing his eyes was Chi Jinlian.

This woman was spoiled and domineering, but she was not a useless fool - otherwise, she would not have been able to become a 97th-level magician at such a young age.

When it comes to working hard, she can work harder than anyone else.

After all, she is a woman who can go without food or water for three days and hang on the ceiling for two days and two nights. When it comes to resilience, Xu Mu is willing to call her the best.

She squinted her eyes and frowned, looking carefully at rubbing No. 1, trying to find the pattern from the messy lines.

No.

No.

Or not.

She closed her eyes, but the lines were still imprinted in front of her eyes. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes to relieve the soreness in her eyeballs.

Then, continue watching.

After an hour, she sighed and glanced at Xu Mu: "Xu Mu, did you notice the scene?"

Xu Mu shook his head: "My eyes hurt."

"……Me too."

Chi Jinlian stood up and walked to the window, gazing into the distance to relieve her eye strain. "This test is a little harder than I imagined. We only have ten days, and there are twelve rubbings. Xu Mu, we'd better find the first painting within the first day."

"?"

Xu Mu raised his head and said, “Violet said there’s a bonus if you find three. Three days is more than enough to find one.”

"Humph--"

Xu Mu's remarks drew a sneer from Chi Jinlian.

She turned around, leaned her waist against the windowsill, puffed out her chest and raised her chin. "For you, finding three may be enough; but for the great Miss Chi Jinlian... not finding them all is a failure! Who do you think I am? I am a woman of the Lie Ri family!"

"..."

This woman is really not cute.

Xu Mu had a blank expression on his face and asked, "What happened to the woman from the Lie Ri family?"

"Women of the Lieri family don't accept mediocrity. They wear the best clothes, the most expensive jewels, the strongest men, and their studies must be outstanding! They must be like the sun, attracting attention!"

"what……"

Chi Jinlian spoke shamelessly, speaking wildly with clear articulation and a firm tone.

To this-

Xu Mu's heart was like a dry well, calm and peaceful.

He gestured to the twelve rubbings on the ground and said, "Please come in, woman of the Lie Ri family. I look forward to your answer."

"..."

Chi Jinlian's brows twitched and she remained silent.

To be honest, you really can’t see the “painting”.

The previous hour of intense scrutiny not only made her eyes very uncomfortable, but Chi Jinlian also failed to find any useful clues.

"Cough cough!"

She coughed and said, "Individual ability is of course important, but we cannot ignore the power of unity... Mr. Xu, if you have any ideas, please share them. I will seriously consider them."

"I have no idea."

"Don't be modest. Even ordinary people have moments of inspiration."

"I really have no idea. This kind of problem can probably only be solved by a woman from the noble, honorable, and expensive Lie Ri family."

"..."

Chi Jinlian looked at Xu Mu with dissatisfaction, frowning and saying, "Xu Mu, please stop contradicting me all the time. I am a beauty after all, and I also have a figure that I can be proud of. Please be gentle and patient with me. That way, I will also behave more charmingly and - submissively in front of you. Don't you want to get more from my body...?"

Xu Mu sneered once more: "Pretentious charm and ulterior motives of obedience are worthless. The thorns beneath your gorgeous exterior are poisonous."

"Ah, what you just said was very romantic."

"..."

Are you crazy?

Chi Jinlian sighed softly and walked up slowly: "Do you really have no idea?"

Xu Mu looked at the rubbing at his feet and said, "Excuse me, the lines on the rubbing are too complex and messy. It's unrealistic to try to find the 'image' through the fine mesh. I think we can start with the number 'twelve'."

Chi Jinlian was startled: "The number twelve?"

"Why twelve rubbings, and not three, ten, or twenty?"

Xu Mu looked at Chi Jinlian and said so.

He half-smiled and speculated, "Does this have some unique meaning? In my hometown, there are things like the 'Twelve Zodiac Signs' and the 'Twelve Chinese Zodiac Animals.' Could Violet have created these twelve rubbings based on something composed of 'twelve entities'?"

"what……"

Chi Jinlian thought for a moment and nodded slowly: "It's very likely!"

PS: Eleventh update! Today was also a very hard day.

Eh--

By the way, the monthly ticket reward ends on Sunday. I'm not the type to not update if I don't have enough. Under the current circumstances, it's unlikely that I'll reach 4,000 average subscriptions. If I don't reach 4,000, I won't be able to stand on the big bookshelf.

From the time this book was published to the time it was put on the shelves, it only received two recommendations: "ACG Anywhere Door" and "Ten Thousand Books on the Shelf List". To be honest, it was a big loss.

If I miss the big bookshelf, I'll have to wait until I'm over a million words to get enough exposure. I don't have any other ideas, I'll just have to reach a million words sooner rather than later.

I've already left two books unfinished; my confidence is almost gone. My past is catching up with me, and I need to finish this one.

Chapter 102 # 101 The scale is not small! [3000 monthly tickets plus more]

"Twelve, twelve..."

Chi Jinlian, who was enlightened by Xu Mu and agreed with his point of view, began to think about the meaning of twelve.

Seeing her frowning and silent face, it seemed that she couldn't think of anything for a while.

Xu Mu is even worse.

He is not from the Blue Planet, and he can't even claim to understand the most basic common sense. What the hell does he know about local customs?

"Xu Mu, let's go to the library!"

"what?"

Chi Jinlian pointed to a large dome-shaped building not far away and said, "That's the Great Mystery Library of the Magic Academy, the largest library in the Central Land. We can search inside to see if there's anything related to 'Twelve'."

"what……"

Xu Mu nodded and said, "That's fine. It's almost time for lunch anyway."

There are many restaurants inside the Magic Research Institute. Not only do they have restaurants, they also provide take-out services, and their business is very good.

The two had a light meal at a restaurant called "Wisdom Entrance" and then went to the library together.

As soon as he entered the door, Xu Mu let out a "Wow".

book.

A lot of books.

In the visible area alone, there are hundreds of bookshelves neatly arranged.

Books are arranged in an orderly manner, and the whole library is filled with the scent of ink of knowledge.

Chi Jinlian raised her hand, as if introducing her own home, and said with a smile, "Surprised? The Great Arcana Library has over 700,000 books, covering everything from astronomy and geography to local customs and folklore. A whopping 70% of the books here are specialized! Even across the entire Blue Star, this library can be considered large."

"amazing."

Xu Mu knew the value of books on the Blue Star.
