[Edward Jack: Well, brother, as a show of sincerity, I will not hide it from you. I also just got the news not long ago: Many people thought that among the nine fragments of each map, there are only '15

Nine' are valid fragments, and the others are just for making up the numbers, but that's not the case, every fragment has its own value!]

[Edward Jack: Someone has already collected all nine fragments of the same Sky City. From the deconstructed map, this person came to a conclusion: after entering the Sky City from the two entrances, there are two different places in the city.

It is not possible to go straight to the city center in a straight line, but you must follow a fixed path and jump along the periphery. Only after passing the fixed path can you enter the city center. The specific path is two roads that are in the shape of a loop:

'One, two, three, six, five', and 'Nine, eight, seven, four, five'.】

[Edward Jack: You can connect these two columns of numbers on the nine-square grid to understand the meaning of the route.]

Mu You drew on the nine-square grid.

1,2,3

4,5,6

7,8,9

It is equivalent to walking a paper clip-like route. It is also the same paper clip route, and it is completely symmetrical with the previous one.

In other words, if you want to reach the city center, there are only two fixed routes, and you must walk at least five grids.

[Edward Jack: This is equivalent to a nine-square grid game, and for each grid, if there is no map, the difficulty and time will be greatly increased. The time difference between passing through the same section with fragments and without fragments is said to be ten times.

It’s not an exaggeration to have more than enough!]

[Edward Jack: Now the Emperor already has four fragments of 'One Three Six Nine' in his hand. If he gets your 'Two' again, his first route will be almost complete! In other words, he will enter

After entering the city, you will arrive at the city center without any obstruction!]

[Edward Jack: In addition, the two entrance locations are in his hands. When the city entrance opens, the emperor will be able to drive straight in. Even if we can track the entrance location, after entering the entrance, we will not be qualified to fight with him at all.

The other party is racing, and they will leave us behind and go straight to the center of the city to take the position of city lord.]

[Edward Jack: So, brother, your fragments must not fall into the hands of the emperor!]

"So that's it..."

Mu You understood when he saw this. No wonder the other party came to the door specially at this time, not to take him a share of the pie, but to ensure that he did not fall to the emperor.

By the way, through Jack's words, Mu You finally clarified the current distribution of fragments.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

In the hands of the emperor: one, three, six, nine.

In Jack’s hand: four, seven, eight.

In his own hand: two and five.

From this point of view, there is actually no conflict between him and Jack, because all the 'one-three-six' he needs are in the hands of the emperor.

But at the same time, Jack's three fragments have zero effect on him, and it is useless even if the fragments are combined.

[Lamplighter: Don’t worry, I won’t join forces with the emperor.]

【Edward Jack:Great!】

[Edward Jack: Brother, tell us your position quickly, and let’s quickly sign a cooperation agreement, a formal one, one that will never cheat each other!]

【Lamplighter: OK.】

[Lamplighter: There is just a little problem.]

【Edward Jack:What?】

[Lamplighter: I am now imprisoned on the fourth floor of the underwater prison. If you want to find me, I am afraid you have to visit the prison on the fourth floor of the prison first...]

【Edward Jack:???】

[Edward Jack: Man, your joke is not funny at all!]

[Lamplighter: No kidding, I’m really on the fourth floor.]

[Lamplighter: My fragments are also here. If you don’t believe me, you can take a fragment and walk around near the entrance of the underwater prison. You can easily judge whether what I say is true or false by looking at the arrow direction of the fragment.]

After sending the message, there is no more news from the other party.

Mu You estimated that the other party was conducting experiments, so he ignored it and continued to control the character into the Sunlight Forest to complete the reputation mission.

After about half an hour, Jack's message finally popped up again.

[Edward Jack: Oh, you are cruel! The underwater prison is the Octopus King’s private territory, or the fourth floor, where felons are located. What on earth did you do?]

[Lamplighter: Haha, it’s a bit embarrassing to say this. After I came to the Evil Spirit Sea this week, I heard a secret news: the young master of the Dragon Knight Pirates was arrested and imprisoned in the Undersea Prison for making some mistakes.

On the fourth floor, the Dragoon Pirates are offering a high price to help him escape from prison, and I just happened to buy a map of the undersea prison from Beaver some time ago. Plus, I have a variety of stealth and escape methods. If I feel like it's interesting, I just

I wanted to try to get the bounty, but the result...]

[Edward Jack: You were arrested?]

[Lamplighter: I admit, I underestimated the strength of this prison... so now I am locked up on the fourth floor, with a sentence of one hundred years.]

[Edward Jack:...You are really cruel!]

[Lamplighter: Now I actually have given up hope in this competition for city master. I just hope that someone can come and save me from prison.]

【Edward Jack:......】

[Lamplighter: Anyway, I don’t want this fragment anymore. I’m going to post this on the forum later to ask for help. No matter you or anyone else comes to visit the prison, as long as he can find a way to save me from prison, I promise to give him the fragment for free!]
