Chapter 339: The Number Suit
Obviously, Tang Li’s combo did not do s**t against those skeletons.
“Come here!” Fang Yu shouted as she grabbed Tang Li before running away from the skeletons.
“Eh, are you not going to fight them?” Shamaila asked as she ran beside Fang Yu. “You are pretty strong right?”
“Well, that’s the case if I were in the Mist Room....” Fang Yu said as the skeleton army followed her from the back.
“Then why the hell did you provoke Solomon!!!” Shamaila whimpered as she almost cried. “Did you feed Tang Li with so much milk that your brain juices had been dried up too?”
“Hey! Tang Li doesh not dwink bwain juice!” Shamaila and Fang Yu ignored Tang Li’s retort as Fang Yu said,
“Well you may not know it, but this plan that I will use was not just made by me. Even Genie, Stolas and your father had part in it.”
“Go on!” Shamaila shrieked as a bone spear thrown by one of the skeletons narrowly missed her head. She had the urge to just go invisible and hide.
But with Fang Yu holding her father basically hostage, she had to follow her.
“Even though Shax and Stolas were not able to give me much info due to the restriction on them, my AI suit were able to extrapolate everything they said to give me hints about Solomon.” Fang Yu said as she flexed her shoulders.
“You see,” Fang Yu said as she activated her suit, propelling her to the skies. Shamaila had no choice but to grab Fang Yu’s arm while Tang Li used her own suit for flight. “Those three djinns gave hints to the AI that Solomon had feared the return of the Goddess.”
“But with the injuries that the Goddess had, it seemed like Solomon theorized that if the Goddess were ever to come back, it will be in a reincarnated, weaker form. In that case, Solomon who had to conserve his energy to also heal, can just use other ways to defeat the returning reincarnated Goddess.”
“One of those ways were the Djinns under his command.” Shamaila nodded, as she began to understand what Solomon wanted.
“But from what Shax hinted to the AI, Solomon had another plan embedded to deal with the Goddess..” Fang Yu said as she dodged more and more bone spears thrown towards them.
“That’sh a cwoshe one!” Tang Li laughed as a man-sized spear went rippling just between Fang Yu’s legs. Good thing Fang Yu was able to part her legs to dodge that one.
“First of all, you must understand that Solomon was actually a soul of a planet far away from here. The form that he had as a reincarnated being was a Djinn. At that state, he only needed to reach the Djinn Stage comparable to the Immortals or Gods to advance his Planetary Body to the Sixth Stage.”
Fang Yu continued talking as she made aerobic moves in the air. “But then Solomon in his Djinn body was injured during his awakening, turning him into a Planet Devourer Djinn.”
“So you mean....” Shamaila’s words trailed, as she waited Fang Yu to continue talking.
“That means that Solomon has Djinn abilities while also being a Planet Devourer.” Fang Yu said as she stopped her flight. Fang Yu looked down, staring at the seething skeleton army below.
“Form the slight hints that I was able to get from Shax and Stolas, I realized that Solomon might have used his Djinn Abilities to lay some things to bother the returning Goddess.”
“Ah, so the first phase of your plan is to defeat all those traps by Solomon without ever using your real power?” Shamaila concluded from that long speech of Fang Yu. “You must be really confident on pulling that off.”
“Well what choice do I have?” Fang Yu said as she shrugged her shoulders.
“I have to conserve as much strength as I can, so using them against these traps is a waste of power. It’s better to save this for the enemy Djinns and Solomon himself.”
“You may be right.....” Shamaila replied in agreement as she looked at the skeleton army below.
“But can you beat those things even without using your power?”
“Well I am not sure, but I think I will make do.” Fang Yu replied smugly.
“Hmph! Do you even know what the Great Solomon’s Nature Power is, since you said that he was a Djinn? Say it now!” Shamaila demanded as she wanted to see how far Fang Yu had prepared herself for this.
“Well, Solomon seemed to have kept it under the wraps too well that even his followers do not know.” Fang Yu said sheepishly as she restrained the naughty Tang Li.
“So, I used the AI on my suit to gather any available data it had on anything related to Solomon appearing here.”
“From those limited data, my AI was able to narrow down my guesses down to just 6 possible Nature Powers.” Fang Yu clicked her fingers as she seemed to be reading something that was only visible to her.
Fang Yu then narrated the 6, which were:
Creation, Death, Karma, Evil, Curse, and Knowledge.
“That means it’s one of those 6 that was Solomon’s possible Nature Power.” Shamaila then paused as enlightenment appeared on her eyes. “Then your other reason to bring out those traps was for you to determine Solomon’s Nature Power?”
“That’s right.” Fang Yu replied with narrowed eyes as she stared intently at the skeleton army below.
“With the help of my AI suit, I can assign probability on each of those 6 Nature Powers depending on the traps that Solomon showed to us. Those skeletons,” Fang Yu pointed to the seething skeleton army below. “Was able to give my suit an initial probability for each of the Nature Power.”
“Here, I’ll show you.” A blue screen suddenly appeared in front of Fang Yu, which she flicked towards Shamaila.
Shamaila read it, seeing the distribution pattern.
Creation-20%
Death- 50%
Karma-10%
Evil- 42%
Curse-38%
Knowledge- 15%
“Well this seems comprehensive as of now.” Shamaila muttered as she read the screen.
Death amounted to 50% chance, since it was skeletons that appeared there. Evil was at 42%, since its usually the evil attributes that creates these skeletons.
Curse was at 38% because who knows, these people might have been just cursed to be skeletons.
Creation, Knowledge and Karma was below 30%, since they have little relations to creating skeletons.
“Well, I will not believe this list yet.” Fang Yu said as the blue screen disappeared. “As more and more of his other traps appear, that percentage numbers will surely change.”
“So the only thing that we need to do now is to make more and more traps appear.” Shamaila concluded as she let out a tired sigh.
“It may be rude for me to say this, but damn you for dragging me in here!”
“Hey language!” Fang Yu muttered as she covered Tang Li’s ears. “There’s a baby here you know.”
“Damn you!” Tang Li said, perfectly replicating Shamaila.
“Sigh.” In the end, Fang Yu just ignored the banter of the two as she drew out something from her storage.
It was a sword, covered with a sheen so golden that the sword seemed to be glowing brightly wherever it was!
“Time to have some fun!” Fang Yu licked her lips as the sword seemed to hum in happiness. Her suit let out a boom as Fang Yu went flying straight towards the skeleton army.
“Of course, that sword has some properties that can fight against skeletons. What a lucky person.... Yay......” Shamaila thought sullenly as she tightened her grip on Fang Yu.
But before Fang Yu could even swing her sword, her movements were forcefully stopped by countless vines suddenly shooting up from the ground.
It wrapped Fang Yu, Shamaila and even Tang Li tightly, now allowing them to move.
Fang Yu tried to budge, even using the sword to cut the vines down. But to her dismay, she felt immense lifeforce coming from the vines, making them extremely durable.
“Oh my.....” Fang Yu muttered as the vines lowered them to the bloodthirsty skeleton army.
“With the appearance of these vines, the probability for Creation shot up to 60%”
“......”
