Chapter 190 (1/2)

“Sister Shanshan!”

Fu Wensheng shouted nervously. Chen Shanshan turned and sent him a reassuring look. Then she walked towards the sixth grid.

The short-haired girl walked step by step into the grid. Her expression was calm and this wasn’t in line with her age. She looked at the other person calmly. Mu Huixue waved at her, revealing a bright smile.

No one understood why Mu Huixue chose Chen Shanshan as an opponent. She had 5 points while Chen Shanshan had 2 points. Everyone knew that the little girl was weak but she only had 2 points. The probability of losing might be only one in 10,000 but once Mu Huixue lost, her lucky die would become a 2. If Mu Huixue chose a player with the same number of points, neither of them would suffer, regardless of who won or lost.

“Is she so confident in her strength?”

This was what the group thought.

Chen Shanshan looked calm but countless thoughts were flashing through her brain.

Mu Huixue choosing her was a certain win. The other players weren’t clear about this but Chen Shanshan was. However, it was impossible for Mu Huixue to lose to any player in this group. The gap in strength was too big. Since her choices were the same, why did Mu Huixue choose Chen Shanshan?

Chen Shanshan couldn’t figure it out despite her super intelligent thinking.

There was no logic to this matter.

She could only adapt to it.

Chen Shanshan was thinking about Mu Huixue’s intentions when a laughing female voice was heard. “Your physical strength doesn’t seem to grow much?”

Chen Shanshan was startled and looked up at the other player.

Mu Huixue suppressed her voice so that only the two of them could hear it. “All players’ physical strengths improved to a certain degree after eating the chocolate cone. I roughly divided each person’s physical fitness in the order of magnitude. If the physical fitness starts at one, some people increased it by one or two levels. Only you have no improvement in physical strength.

Chen Shanshan received a big shock. She hadn’t done anything in Santa’s instance and during the previous challenge, she directly surrendered. How did Mu Huixue see it?

“Breathing, walking… every minute, your muscle strength and five senses aren’t resting.” Mu Huixue paused and her smile widened. “Looking at a person’s physical fitness doesn’t require looking at them fight. I can see it just by the way they walk. Hey kid, how old are you this year? It looks like you’re a bit older than that little boy.”

Chen Shanshan was silent.

She couldn’t be blamed for not thinking this when she didn’t know very much about physical strength.”

“I’m 15.”

Mu Huixue muttered, “Very young.”

Chen Shanshan asked, “Do you want to start a duel?” She took her die out of her pocket and headed for the Christmas sock. The little girl put her die in the sock and deliberately went to a corner of the grid that was far from the pair of socks.

Mu Huixue needed to put her die in the sock before the duel could start. Mu Huixue was strong enough to put the die in the sock and then kill Chen Shanshan in the blink of an eye, not giving her a chance to surrender. Chen Shanshan was as fully prepared as possible.

Mu Huixue went to the sock. A light flashed in her eyes as she threw the die in.

“I admit…”

“I admit defeat.”

A female voice interrupted Chen Shanshan. The little girl stared at the other person with astonishment.

The tall woman in black tights put her hand into a sock and pulled out the die that Chen Shanshan had just put in. She lazily went to the middle of the sixth grid, ready to continue her game. Mu Huixue looked up and found that Chen Shanshan hadn’t left the grid. She raised her eyebrows, “Aren’t you going? I have to keep playing.”

Chen Shanshan stared for a few seconds before walking back to the starting point.

Fu Wensheng whispered, “Sister Shanshan, what does she want to do…”

Chen Shanshan placed her index finger in front of her lips and made a silence gesture. She watched as the woman in black skipped through six grids and returned to the beginning. On the way, she encountered two punishments. Her luck became 2 and the bad luck poured over her. Still, she was unmoved as she jumped lightly. She didn’t let down her guard and continued to do her best.

Chen Shanshan saw Mu Huixue jumping to the seventh grid and whispered to Fu Wensheng “She wants to see if I can hold this die. Perhaps she is very curious about why my physical fitness can’t be improved and how I can live to the present. She wants to know if my ability can help me go through the grids.”

On the other side, Tang Mo saw Mu Huixue give her die to Chen Shanshan and understood her intentions.

Before the game started, Mu Huixue said she came to find Fu Wenduo because she hoped Fu Wenduo could kill her.

This sentence wasn’t a lie. She was serious. She really wanted to die.

Giving up the die to Chen Shanshan might bring her more danger but Mu Huixue wasn’t afraid.

Under Bai Ruoyao’s actions that courted death was a heart extremely afraid to die. Under Mu Huixue’s careful appearance was a determination to die.

People not afraid of death were actually the most terrifying.

Tang Mo retracted his gaze and went to the grid. His die was a 1. If he rushed to start the game then he would surely encounter a more terrible punishment than Mu Huixue who had a 2. Tang Mo wasn’t going to take any chances. He threw the die and it directly landed in the sixth grid.

Santa let out a sound of surprise and glanced at Tang Mo.

Tang Mo asked casually, “Can I go directly to the sixth grid?”

Santa had an expression of chagrin. “Can you do this? Well… I didn’t say that you can’t do this. Child, you are so clever to catch the loophole in Santa’s game. It seems that I’ll have to add this to the rules next time.”

There was no doubt that Tang Mo would choose the young woman.
