The scene where Ji Shanqing grabbed the prop and tossed it to Lin Sanjiu felt like someone had jammed the replay button. The scene replayed in her mind as many times as Maxin had jumped over the rocks.
What made him nervous was that he was not nervous at all at that moment.
'Is Ji Shanqing going to hurt me? ' Maxin knew the answer to this question without even blinking. If he could exchange his life for Lin Sanjiu, his corpse would have long been floating in the water.
How could he let his guard down when a person threw a Special Item at him? He had no idea what was wrong with him at that moment, but he could not afford to make the same mistake again!
Maxin warned himself as he leaped toward the last rock. The furry skin membrane between his limbs immediately silently opened, and then with a shake of his tail, he already glided to the top of the hundredth rock while riding the air currents. With that, he managed to jump over all the rocks before the end of the 13 minutes.
The description given by Ji Shanqing was not accurate at all. It was a "close-range teleportation device". There was indeed a close-range teleportation device, but it was far from teleportation. Now that he had the skin, all he had to do was to step on a rock and glide forward, saving him a lot of time. However, it was different from what he had expected. He was a little flustered at first, and he almost got soaked in seawater. As for the limit of 100 jumps, Maxin had no idea whether a tap on the rock counted as "one" or not.
'How could Ji Shanqing make a mistake? '
'No, that's not right. These things don't belong to Ji Shanqing. So, the question is, how did he know what these things are for? ' Even the smartest person could not make a judgment based on their appearance.
Just as Maxin peeled off the moleskin's skin, he suddenly understood something. The display board in Ji Shanqing's hand could not only store Special Items, but it could also analyze and make guesses about their uses. His guesses might not be accurate, but at least they were close to the truth.
Based on that alone, the value of the display board was staggering. If he brought it to the Twelve Worlds Centrum, he would be able to exchange it for a house with the protection of a gang. Ironically, the neighborhood he grew up in was occupied by gangs, so everyone avoided them. However, in the Twelve Worlds, gangs' houses were as popular as school districts' houses, and the prices were so high that it was impossible to buy one.
"Why are they still dragging their feet?"
Soulsqn, the large flesh worm that seemed to be unaffected by the situation, raised her head and shouted from a rock not far away, "Lin Sanjiu fell into the water just now. Why didn't you guys save her? What's going on now? "
It seemed that because of the distance, it did not hear a word of Hegel's words.
"Lin Sanjiu has been turned into Zeus," was much harder for Maxin to say than he had imagined. When he finally finished explaining, Soulsqn had a hard time accepting the news. She opened her mouth and hissed angrily, "What do you mean by turning into Zeus? I don't understand, I don't believe you! Zeus can transform? Why don't you change into one for me to see? "
Maxin sighed. His brain had gone numb from the shock. Logically speaking, there were only a few minutes left in the half-hour time limit, and Soulsqn should have rushed back to the first rock. However, he could not even form a complete sentence due to the flesh worm's incessant interruption. Fortunately, they did not argue for too long before Ji Shanqing returned with a gloomy look on his face.
He dismissed Soulsqn with just a few words.
"If you don't do as I say, we will lose the match in 30 seconds," Ji Shanqing shot a glance at Soulsqn, "If we lose the match, we won't be able to save my sister."
The flesh worm, who did not seem to care much about Lin Sanjiu's life, immediately shut her mouth when she heard Lin Sanjiu's words. She turned around and left. She only had two flexible forked tails, so she could not jump like a human. However, by opening up her body and reassembling her body, she could extend her body and climb up the rocks in the distance. Although the process was a little scary, she was not trapped.
Maxin retracted his gaze and looked at Ji Shanqing.
"What's wrong?" His tone was much gentler than he had expected.
Ji Shanqing heaved a sigh of relief, a little impatiently.
"That guy thought of something. I'm sure it has something to do with my sister, but he won't admit it." Ji Shanqing frowned. There was no light in his black pupils. "I've been using both carrot and stick for so long, but I can only get him to agree to jump on the rocks for me."
It was only then that Maxin realized that Hegel had not returned with him. He looked around and saw that Baldhead was rushing toward the 100th rock. The latter seemed to have good stamina. After jumping so many rocks in one go, he did not show any signs of stopping to rest.
Even though Hegel was not part of the plan, the rules of Zeus did not specify any identity requirements for the person who stepped on the rocks. With this, they could fill in the gap left by Lin Sanjiu.
"Don't worry," Ji Shanqing said as if he could read Maxin's mind, "I promised him that if we win, I will bring him to meet the highest god. For that, he will not reduce the number of rocks we have."
"Then, you —"
"I have to find a way to get into the White Faction," Ji Shanqing said as he grabbed his long hair and tied a knot at the back of his head, revealing his jade-white face. He took the display board off his back and tossed it on the reef. "I want to find something that is suitable for crossing the sea. Can you help me take a look as well?" he said.
"Me?" Maxin was taken aback. "This is yours …"
"One-third of it is yours too." Ji Shanqing squatted down and smiled at him. His lips were as red as a blooming spring flower. "I trust you. Besides, we have to finish this as soon as possible."
'Trust me? '
Even though Maxin suspected that this was just one of Ji Shanqing's tricks, he couldn't help scratching his head sheepishly. However, just as he squatted down, both of them realized that the black camp was not the only one who wanted to finish the battle as soon as possible.
"Someone is coming!"
Soulsqn, who was still struggling to move forward on the first row of rocks, suddenly let out a shrill shriek. The faces of both of them paled. Ji Shanqing sprang to his feet and dashed forward without saying a word. Maxin quickly put on the Flying Squirrel Skin and glided faster than Ji Shanqing, so he was one step ahead of Ji Shanqing. By the time Maxin came to a halt above a rock, the figure in the distance was already closing in on him at high speed.
"There are no yellow things in the sea between the rocks!"
Maxin, who was still hovering in the air, turned around and shouted at Ji Shanqing. By the time he finished his sentence, he had already landed back on the rock. "It's true! I saw it when I was in the air just now! The first row of rocks is surrounded by a large yellow shadow, but the sea is clear! "
"How big is the yellow shadow surrounding the rocks?" Ji Shanqing asked as he leaped over the rocks.
"It's about the same size as the yellow shadow between the two rocks in the camp. It's about a hundred meters wide," Maxin shouted as he stared at the figure who had escaped the yellow shadow's encirclement. "I'll hold him back. You go!"
The member of the white camp was a young man with long, wavy hair. He was topless and wore an embroidered vest. Around his neck was a string of ornaments with the words "love", "peace", "rainbow", and "marijuana". He looked like a hippie from the sixties. He smiled and greeted Maxin from afar. Then, he stopped outside the yellow shadow's encirclement. Yes, he stopped because he had walked all the way from the sea.
At the same time, Ji Shanqing leaped onto the rock next to Maxin.
"I got it," he said hurriedly. "I'll leave him to you. First, don't let him step on our rock. Second, don't let Soulsqn and the others stop while you're fighting! "
"Okay," Maxin replied as he put the mermaid's tail on his arm. Ji Shanqing turned to look at Maxin. Then, he grabbed two items from the display board and tossed them to Maxin. Then, he quickly left.
When Maxin grabbed the two items, he once again realized that he had not raised his guard against Ji Shanqing at all. However, before he could feel dejected, the hippie had already dashed in his direction. Not only him, but a few other figures also appeared behind him. They split up and charged toward the black camp.
