Chapter 792: Chapter 796: The Third Test 29
These Beast Soldiers were originally reluctant to come, as the distance between the edge barrier and the main water tank was too far. They didn’t want to waste their time on the back and forth journey.
Eventually, it was Su Tang who proposed to reduce their water quota by five buckets — this made them happily race towards the edge barrier.
Just as all the Beast Soldiers ceased their actions, the barrier that was shrinking inward also stopped.
"The barrier isn’t moving."
Upon hearing Gaiyin’s voice, Su Tang turned her head.
Meanwhile, a flash of insight appeared in her mind.
On her recent journey, the lost insight was recovered by her.
That’s it, thinking back to every previous barrier contraction, it seems someone was intentionally or unintentionally breaking white beads.
This idea surged within Su Tang, but she didn’t speak hastily.
She was waiting, waiting for the next contraction of the barrier.
The Beast Soldiers, in order to save time, chose to collect the white beads in the innermost area.
From the innermost area to the outermost, given the Beast Soldiers pace, it only required a few breaths’ worth of time.
Su Tang silently calculated the time in her heart. It was about 30 seconds when she heard Bai Que’s voice.
"It’s moving, the barrier is moving again."
It confirmed her speculation, and Su Tang exhaled slightly.
"The speed of the barrier’s contraction seems to be accelerating."
"It’s faster than before."
Gaiyin and Xi’s brows furrowed, both of them felt confused.
At this point.
Su Tang gave a soft cough, feebly raised her hand, "Uh, I think I’ve figured out the pattern of the barrier’s contraction."
Once she said this, the attention of the three on the scene was immediately drawn to her.
Su Tang didn’t tease them, but directly spilled all the information she had discovered.
In the end, she added.
"This is just my speculation so far. Whether it’s true or not, we need to further confirm"
Just as her voice died away.
It was seen that Bai Ling, leading the way with a poor complexion, Xuan Shui, Xuan Tian, and the remaining two Beastmen of the Bai Que Team came back.
Why say they came back?
Because those initial Beast Soldiers didn’t cooperate, this group had run back and forth twice.
This time before they could even stand firm, Bai Que was heard giving instructions.
"Make all of those Beast Soldiers who are collecting white beads stop, and bring them here."
Xuan Shui, Xuan Tian, and the two Beastmen were fine with it.
When Bai Ling heard these words, her face suddenly stretched long, her anger momentarily greater than her fear of Bai Que.
Bai Ling loudly complained, "Bai Que, are you playing me! How many times have you made me run? Do you think it’s easy to run back and forth every time? If you want to go, go yourself, I’m not going!"
While saying that, Bai Ling sat down cross-legged on the sandy ground, refusing to move.
Xuan Shui looked at Bai Que with difficulty.
But Bai Que didn’t even glance at Bai Ling.
He just lightly instructed Xuan Shui, "You guys, hurry up."
Then Bai Que turned his gaze to Su Tang, "If your guess is correct, then what’s the matter with those insect beasts?"
"Huh? What?"
Su Tang was somewhat confused. She looked at Bai Que with a puzzled expression.
Bai Que explained, "You just guessed that the faster the white beads are collected and the greater the quantity, the faster the barrier would contract. If no one collects them, the barrier will stop contracting."
Su Tang nodded, "I did guess that. Is there a problem?"
Bai Que turned his gaze towards the insect beasts that were steadily drawing closer to them.
He spoke up.
