"What if I'm lucky?"
Mu Lingyao said indifferently, "Who knows, maybe I'm one of those lucky ones."
"Alright, even if your luck is good and you really become the lucky one in a hundred thousand, how many times can you be lucky enough to do that?"
Fairy Hua Die said softly, "Don't forget that you don't have to start from the 44th floor. You have to start from the first floor. From the ninth floor onwards, the chance is 10: 10. The tenth floor is 1: 20. The fifteenth floor is 1: 50. The eighteenth floor is 1: 100."
After a pause, Fairy Hua Die continued, "In other words, if you want to get to the 45th floor and get the one billion reward, you need to be lucky forty times. You can be lucky once, twice, or even ten times, but can you be lucky twenty, thirty, or forty times in a row?"
"Sister Hua Die, I was just joking." Mu Lingyao felt wronged. "Why are you so serious? Seriously."
"I'm doing this for your own good. If I don't talk you out of it, you'll get addicted. Every time the golden tower opens, look at how excited you are. Don't you know that the golden tower is a kind of gambling? Just play a little. Don't get addicted."
"Okay, okay, I know! I find that you're getting more and more naggy with age. "
No woman liked to be called old, and Hua Die was no exception. She laughed and scolded Mu Lingyao, "Stupid girl, who are you calling old?"
"No! I'm talking about myself. But … Sister Hua Die, didn't you say before that the golden tower's formation is ever-changing? Every time it evolves, it's different. But there's still a pattern to it, right? "
Hearing this, Qian Ling asked curiously, "Does the golden tower's formation really have a pattern?"
"In this world, every formation has a pattern. But … it's too difficult and too profound."
Hua Die thought for a moment and said, "The golden tower uses the Qian Kun Eight Trigrams Formation as the main formation. Every time it opens, the Qian Kun Eight Trigrams Formation will evolve into countless teleportation formations. And every formation is different. If you want to get to the next floor, you have to use 30% of your perception, 30% of your consciousness, and 30% of your reflexes. From there, you can deduce the teleportation formation to the next floor."
"However, it's easier said than done, especially when the number of formations increases with each level. Some people might be able to deduce the formation that leads to the next level from four, six, or even more formations, but to deduce the formation that leads to the next level from dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of formations is as difficult as ascending to the heavens."
"Most importantly, it only takes a few breaths of time for the formation to evolve and operate. It's almost impossible to deduce the formation that leads to the next level in such a short time."
Qian Ling nodded, she agreed.
She had tried the golden tower before, but the highest she reached was the sixth floor.
Based on her past experiences, she felt that the golden tower also relied on one's perception, consciousness, and reflexes. None of the three could be missing. But luck played a bigger role.
Just as Fairy Hua Die had said, it only took a few breaths of time for the arrays of the Golden Tower to be activated. It was too difficult to deduce the next array from hundreds and thousands of arrays in such a short time.
Not to mention hundreds and thousands of arrays, she couldn't even deduce which array would lead to the next level from just two or three arrays.
Qian Ling couldn't do it, Mu Lingyao couldn't do it, and neither could Hua Die. None of them could be sure that the formation would lead to the next floor.
Qianniao said, "But I've heard many people say that some people can deduce the next floor from four or five formations."
"Silly girl, in the future, I will take responsibility and tell you that all the rumors about the Golden Pagoda are lies." Mu Lingyao said, "The formation of the golden tower does have a pattern to follow. The formation that leads to the next floor can indeed be deduced, but it's only deduced. No one dares to say that the result of the deduction is definitely correct."
"But why are so many people able to go very high every time they challenge the golden tower?"
"How should I put it? Although the result of the deduction can't be confirmed to be correct, at least it has some reference value."
Qianniao didn't understand and asked, "Reference value?"
"Let me put it this way. If you meet ten strangers and one of them is a bad person, can you tell which one is the bad person?"
"Since they're strangers, I definitely don't know them. If I don't know them, how would I know which one of them is the bad guy?"
Mu Lingyao gave an example and said, "But if it's an experienced senior, they're knowledgeable and have seen a lot of people. Their eyes are sharp, and they can roughly guess which ones are the bad guys through the subtle performance of ten strangers or a single look. Then, they can judge from these people. Of course, it's just a judgment, and the senior can't be sure which one is the real bad guy."
Hearing Mu Lingyao's words, Qianniao roughly understood and said happily, "In other words, if you want to challenge the golden tower, the probability of there being seven formations on the sixth floor is one in seven. Most people can only try their luck, but for people with high perception, strong spiritual sense, and fast reactions, although they can't accurately determine which one is the formation that leads to the next floor, through deduction, they can find a few formations that might be the formation that leads to the next floor, and then judge from these formations. In other words, the original one in seven chance can become even lower through deduction, perhaps a quarter, perhaps a third, or perhaps a half …"
"Little Qianniao is so smart." After Mu Lingyao praised her, she said, "Sister Hua Die's perception, spiritual sense, and reaction are all higher than mine. That's why she's higher than me every time she tries to challenge the golden tower."
"Ah, really? Sister Hua Die, what's the highest level you've reached? "
Before Fairy Hua Die could speak, Mu Lingyao spoke first, "She has reached the nineteenth floor."
It was said that Fairy Hua Die had once reached the nineteenth floor, and Qianniao worshipped him to the extreme.
"That time, I was lucky enough to reach the nineteenth floor. If I were to try again, I might not be able to reach that high."
Fairy Hua Die was not being modest, but that was the truth. Back then, she had reached the nineteenth floor, and after that, she had tried a few more times, but she had never reached the nineteenth floor again. Not only did she not reach the nineteenth floor, sometimes she would be sent out before she could even reach the ninth floor.
"Even so, Sister Hua Die, you're still amazing. If every time the golden tower opens, wouldn't you be able to win a lot of money every time?"
"Silly girl, do you think your Sister Hua Die is a god? There are times when she's wrong. If she could win every time she went to the golden tower, then she would lose a lot of money. Let me tell you, the golden tower is very deep. They are also on guard against people like Sister Hua Die. They will create a formation that looks like it will lead to the next floor, but it's just an illusion. "
Perhaps she thought of something interesting, Mu Lingyao said, "Your Sister Hua Die has been tricked a few times. Once, she was sent out by a fake teleportation formation on the fourth floor. Another time, she was sent out on the third floor. You don't know what everyone's expression was when Sister Hua Die was sent out. It was so funny. That time, Sister Hua Die really lost face. From then on, Sister Hua Die rarely went to the golden tower."
"Why?"
"She's afraid of losing face. The great Fairy Hua Die, who once reached the nineteenth floor, was thrown out on the third floor. How embarrassing would that be?"
