Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 548 - 313: Solo Game

The crowd looked at Luo Heng, who appeared at the center of the chessboard, filled with confusion.

Wasn't Luo Heng already trapped? Why is he fine and even closer to the finish line?

Before the crowd could open their mouths to ask, Luo Heng gathered his thoughts and said, "After falling into a trap, you can use a lucky card to offset 'death' once and gain a random effect."

"The random effect I got is a revival three squares away from the finish line."

After hearing Luo Heng's explanation, the crowd understood. They hadn't anticipated that the lucky card could also have the effect of a revival card, causing them to glance at their own lucky cards in their Storage Rings.

Although dying in the game doesn't mean actual death; it just implies entering the death-prison.

But to revive from the death-prison, one must complete high-difficulty tasks, which is precisely why everyone avoids it.

The death-prison sounds like a bad place; nobody wants to experience it.

Especially because if one can't finish the high-difficulty tasks in the death-prison, what happens then? No one knows.

No one wishes to save a reusable lucky card by risking unknown consequences.

After hearing everything, Luo Feng said to him, "You go in first, then speak."

Luo Heng nodded, rolled the dice, moved forward three squares, and smoothly entered the finish line square at the center of the chessboard, which was equivalent in size to nine regular squares merged.

Upon entering, Luo Heng immediately heard the prompt for completing the game and received an opportunity to pick an extra gift.

Before it ended, Luo Heng was already eagerly contemplating in his heart which two treasures to choose.

Luo Heng rolled the dice; an additional trap appeared on the chessboard, right between Luo Feng and the finish line.

It was Luo Feng's turn to roll the dice.

He rolled the dice directly, moved forward three squares, and got closer to the finish line by three squares.

Afterwards, another trap appeared on the chessboard, an empty square.

At this moment, the dice automatically spun, fell to the ground, and showed three squares forward on the top.

Instantly, several horizontal squares between Luo Feng and the finish line fell into three squares of traps, and after this, a random trap appeared at one corner of the chessboard.

Luo Feng's face slightly changed. Luo Heng also noticed the changes on the board and tried to use Spiritual Power to control the dice, but discovered his power couldn't break through the boundary of the finish line; he couldn't affect the dice.

Now, in a sense, Luo Feng was in a solo game mode.

The good news is he doesn't have an opponent bent on his destruction.

The bad news is the dice roll added extra trap squares, undeniably increasing the difficulty for Luo Feng to reach the finish line.

Actually, another covert good news is Luo Feng doesn't have to consider the dice-roll's impact on Luo Heng anymore; he only needs to focus on how he himself can reach the finish line.

Observing the surrounding trap squares, Luo Feng rolled the dice and gradually approached the finish line.

The number of trap squares around increased, making Luo Feng's path increasingly twisted. The difficulty kept rising, especially as he got closer to the finish.

When the dice rolled automatically, it displayed how many squares forward meant extra traps would appear between Luo Feng and the finish line.

If it showed moving backward, it meant traps would appear behind Luo Feng.

The closer Luo Feng got to the finish line, the fewer the number of squares became, and the extra traps more easily blocked his path.

Sometimes, he had to choose to retreat and avoid newly appearing trap squares on his way forward.

Lin Qingqing watched Luo Feng steadily approach the finish line and said, "There are many unclear rules on the chessboard, but now, it seems that two people reaching the finish line simultaneously is best; otherwise, the latter one will face significant trouble."

Two people simultaneously reach two squares away from the finish line; one rolls forward three squares to enter the finish line, the other retreats one square, just able to roll forward three squares to enter the finish line.

This situation is ideal, with almost no additional interference.

"Just a little bit more to clear the game," said Chen Qingyun nervously as he watched Luo Feng.

Currently, Luo Feng is only two squares away from the finish line and only needs to roll a forward two squares to undoubtedly clear the game.

But now, Luo Feng's turn is over; it's the dice's turn.

The dice spun, and Luo Feng watched it slow down as it approached the ground. His Spiritual Power transformed into a hand, trying to forcibly control the dice's display.

But the dice held a powerful force, allowing Luo Feng only to slightly intervene without fully deciding which side the dice would eventually land on.

Partial intervention was enough; Luo Feng kept a close eye on the dice and nudged it slightly as it was about to settle, causing it to land on another side.

From three extra traps appearing to two extra trap squares appearing.

Whoosh~ A trap appeared directly in front of Luo Feng, conveniently blocking his path.

Luo Feng hadn't yet expressed his dismay at the new trap's location when a random trap appeared on the adjacent square to his right, sealing off his rightward path.

His expression changed slightly; moving one to two squares to the right was the best route besides going straight, requiring only two steps to reach the finish line.

But the random and extra traps effectively blocked his two best routes.

If he wants to reach the finish, he must go left, then change direction to enter the nine-square grid where the finish line is.
