Chapter 206: Reckless strategy

Lin Fan didn't stop with just these tiles, he began moving from one wall of the corridor to the other wall of the corridor.

From the left side to the right side, there were a total of fifty tiles that were lined up.

As for how many times there were from the beginning of the hallway to the end of the hallway, it was too far away to count. But with a rough estimate, there should have been at least over a thousand tiles between them and the end of the hallway.

Multiplying that by fifty, it meant that there were over fifty thousand tiles of varying colours in this hallway, all of them filled with traps.

While the three young geniuses were still digesting the information they received and were thinking about what to do next, Lin Fan was busy moving from one end of the hallway to the other. By that, it meant that he was jumping on each tile from one end of the hall to the other.

Each tile in the first row was a different colour and in the span of ten minutes, Lin Fan had set off fifty different traps. No, it was only forty eight since he had already set off two of the previously.

These tiles varied in colours and they each had a unique trap to them.

For example, the blue tile suddenly created a pool of water that Lin Fan began sinking into, but he easily jumped out using the law of wind to create a foothold. The green tile suddenly erupted in a burst of leaves which caught him off guard, but then it did nothing else.

Most of them seemed to match what one would think their colours would mean, but there was one that created a strange reaction when Lin Fan landed on it. It was a strange black tile.

The moment Lin Fan touched the black tile, there were strange fuzzy black balls that had appeared around him.

At first Lin Fan had thought that this was another dud tile, but that quickly changed.

He began feeling a bit sluggish after staying on the tile and a few seconds after, Angela shouted out, "Get off the tile now!"

Lin Fan no longer doubted Angela like he had in the past. The moment he heard what she said, he immediately jumped back off the black tile.

When he landed back on the stone floor, he felt the energy come back to him.

He couldn't help staring at the black tile that he had just been standing on before turning to Angela and asking, "What was that?"

Angela knit her brows as if she was thinking about something before she responded, "Death law."

"Death law?" Lin Fan repeated.

This was a law that he hadn't heard of before, even from the Lich King Momonga. What Momonga used wasn't the law of death like one would expect from the overlord of the undead, rather he used the law of darkness. This was the law that most of the undead had, rather than the law of death.

Angela was silent for a few seconds before explaining, "Death laws are rare, just like life laws. There are few laws that can directly affect the life force since it is related to the cycle of reincarnation, which is the foundation of the world. Life and death laws are examples of those which make them rarer. Life laws affect it less because it's just prolonging life and delaying the cycle of reincarnation, but death laws means completely cutting off the cycle of reincarnation and going against natural order."

Lin Fan fell into thought when he heard this, but then he just stopped thinking about it since it was too complicated for him. All of this cycle of reincarnation and natural order, that seemed far too above him right now.

Lin Fan just nodded after he came back from his thoughts and Angela knew that there was no point in explaining any further. However, this thought did linger on her mind.

When did the Beast Clan get hold of the death laws and when could they use it for even a game like this?

If that were the case, it seemed like the Beast Clan was holding back at the last summit and they might be planning something for the next summit…

She just hoped that she could gain enough power by staying at Lin Fan's store and learning from the master. After all, she was the ruler of the World of Elements.

Lin Fan looked at each of the tiles that he had just tested and fell into thought once again.

During his tests, he hadn't just been testing what kind of traps were on each tile, he was also testing how strong the traps on each tile was.

Based on the traps that he had taken, he could tell that these traps were in the range of the Gold and Silver Realm, which meant that he could block them. However, if he were to block them all, he would eventually exhaust his life energy and be unable to reach the end. In the end, one person couldn't take down an entire army.

Being unable to find the pattern in this, Lin Fan had no choice but to reveal one of his trump cards. It was one that he had obtained rather recently…

With a snap of his fingers, there was a pile of rocks that suddenly appeared by Lin Fan's side.

The sound of the rocks dropping to the ground brought the three young geniuses back from their thoughts and they were shocked to find a giant stone golem appear in front of them.

This was Lin Fan's first time calling out Rocky since the Inheritance Realm and it was completely different from back then. The current Rocky was over three times taller than Lin Fan and it was made of all different kinds of rocks, but it still acted the same.

Rocky immediately nuzzled up to Lin Fan when it appeared, almost knocking him over since it was now three times taller than him.

The three young geniuses were shocked when they saw this giant stone golem appear in front of them, but they quickly overcame their shock. They hadn't seen this giant stone golem when they were fighting the beast wave, but it did make sense that Lin Fan was holding back then to bait a certain someone. Thinking about it now, after seeing how Lin Fan had dealt with Lord Yin, they couldn't believe that he would struggle with low Platinum Realm beasts.

Lin Fan waved the three of them over and they came up in front of Rocky before he said, "Our plan now will be to rush forward while Rocky creates defenses that will keep out all the traps. That means that if you stop for even a second, you will be left behind, understand?"

The three of them clearly had reservations on this plan, but what else could they do. They had already fully invested in Lin Fan and if they didn't follow his plan, being left behind by him, they definitely wouldn't be able to survive.

The three of them bit the bullet and gave a strong nod, but it was clear that they didn't want to do this.

Lin Fan just ignored this and had Rocky create a defensive rock shield around them.

Rocky was now already in the high Platinum Realm and it was a pet that specialized in defenses, so for it to defend against Gold and Silver Realm attacks was too easy for it.

The rock shield around them perfectly wrapped all around them, while also creating a slit that let them see what was in front. Lin Fan was personally using his laws in that slit to create a defensive barrier.

Just like this, they were like a tank that crushed through the various traps of the tiles, slowly making their way forward.

The rock shields were controlled by Rocky's life energy, so they could be moved while being just heavy enough to trigger the tiles.

The traps of the tiles spawned and slammed into the rock shield, but they only lasted a few seconds before disappearing. Once they did, Lin Fan moved forward with the rock shield.

Of course it wasn't convenient to have a giant rock golem standing in the rock shield with them, it was already crowded enough with five of them in there. They were actually triggering two traps at a time since the rock shield had to be wide enough for all of them to stand in it. So Rocky had shrunk down into a little stone golem that fit into the palm of Lin Fan's hand.

The rock shield that was currently around them was actually part of Rocky's body, which had the greatest defenses.

They just slowly progressed and it didn't seem like there would be anything that would stop them.

That was until they came close to the end and there was a certain special tile that was waiting for them.

Unlike the other tiles, this was a tile that was void of colour, it was just a completely white tile that didn't seem to have any special characteristics at all. That was until the rocks landed on these tiles.

Perhaps if they had gone in another line, they might have been able to avoid this, but it was their bad luck that they chose this line.

The white tile sank down and there was a white flash of light that appeared, it was just like the white flash of light that had brought them into this pyramid.
