Chapter 81: reason of failure
Chapter 81 Reasons for Failure
After eating the Chinese food delivered by Fatty An, Li Qian patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Okay, next, your task is to deliver three meals to me on time. Don't think too much about other things. Just wait and harvest your own blue-scaled dragon."
Coming here this time, he has only one goal, which is to evolve all the koi that can evolve at this stage.
In addition to Tan Tou and Jin 1, 2 and 3, he also brought ten koi carp. These ten koi carps were aimed at evolving into frost fire salamanders.
These ten koi carp are the ten koi carps that performed well after being destroyed by Mr. An's Sun-eating Tiger and Tie Lao's Wind and Thunder Lion.
The purpose of bringing them to this place is to see how much their evolution success rate can be improved after training in intimidation skills.
The recent events in Lingshui City have made Li Qian quite uneasy, and he has a vague premonition in his heart.
This is why he is so anxiously preparing for evolution. The more knowledge he has, the more security he will have.
After completing his food delivery work dutifully, Fatty An did not stay long and quickly left the water slide.
Looking at Fatty An's leaving figure, Li Qian's eyes suddenly became sharp.
The next period of time, until tomorrow morning, is very important to him.
Whether all the fourteen koi brought here can evolve depends on this period of time.
As for the results of evolution, Li Qian did not expect all to be successful.
The four koi aiming to evolve into the Blue Scale Dragon should not be a big problem; the other ten koi aiming to evolve into the Frost Fire Salamander are hard to say.
Shaked his head and collected his mind, Li Qian continued to start the unfinished work in the morning, focusing on the ground.
There, the fire array and the frost array have been arranged, and they just need the last step to connect them together.
This step, linked together, is both simple and complex.
Simple because the step is very simple, there is only one step; complex because this step is very delicate and requires strong mental control.
Li Qian carefully controlled the fire and frost formations, activating them initially. As the formations were activated, the energy gradually merged toward the center eye.
This step, when I first watched Niu Endeavor perform it, seemed very simple.
However, Li Qian knew in his heart that simplicity was just an appearance, while the core was very complex and meticulous, and there was no room for sloppiness.
Two completely opposite energies began to merge into the center of the formation...Li Qian's mental power was highly concentrated.
He hoped that he could succeed once and for all, but the next moment...
Snapped!
A slight crackling sound was heard!
Immediately afterwards, whether it was the fire formation on the left or the frost formation on the right, the bursts of blue-white light and red-red light emitted were extinguished.
“Alas~!”
Li Qian sighed helplessly.
Although I really wanted to complete the arrangement of the Frostfire Array at once, unfortunately, this first attempt ended in failure.
Arriving at the central eye of the fusion site, Li Qian dug out the eye. It was an energy jade talisman.
Different from ordinary energy jade talismans, although this energy jade talisman is also carved from energy stone, its formation pattern is different from the front and back.
The formation patterns carved on the front are complex but rough; the formation patterns carved on the back are fine but simple.
Two completely different styles of formation patterns appear on the front and back sides of an energy jade talisman, which happens to be part of the fire formation and the frost formation. Whether it is a fire array or a frost array, if it is formed alone, fifteen jade talismans can be used to complete the arrangement.
But if you want to blend with each other and form a combined array, you need this sixteenth array pattern.
It can be said that whether the frost fire array can be completed or not, this array eye jade talisman is extremely important.
It is the hub and key node where the two magic circles blend.
Li Qian already had a bad premonition in his heart. In a situation like this, when there was a popping sound, Niu Fenjin had mentioned to him before that it was a sign that the formation layout had failed.
When he dug out the jade talisman of the Formation Eye, he found that, as he had guessed, the jade talisman had broken in the middle and split into two pieces.
Although I have been mentally prepared and know that it may be difficult to successfully arrange it at one time, when failure does happen, it is still a bit heartbreaking.
“I have prepared three formation eyes in total, and I don’t know if I can complete the arrangement...” Li Qian glanced at the broken jade talisman, frowned, and couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
While he was speaking, he had already taken out the second Jade Talisman of Formation Eyes.
He prepared a total of three jade talismans.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to prepare more, it’s actually that the success rate of this thing is a bit touching.
When I first saw the outline of Niu Endeavor, I thought it was very simple, just three times, five times and two, and it was done. Unexpectedly, it fell on me, and I tried thirty times before I got three pieces.
The success rate of 10% made him give up the idea of continuing.
Furthermore, he felt that there were three jade talismans with formation eyes, which should be able to support the formation of the frost and fire formation. Now it seems that it is a bit unreliable.
After thinking about it, he finally did not continue with the arrangement. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
“Forget it, let’s ask Brother Niu first.”
The person he called on his mobile phone was none other than Niu Fenjin. Based on his understanding of the Frost Fire Array, he should be able to give him some advice.
With these thoughts in mind, the call was dialed quickly, and a familiar voice came to mind, "Classmate Li Qian, your last class will probably have to wait for a while."
Li Qian heard that he still had the intention to joke with himself, and thought to himself, it seems that his situation is not very bad.
"Don't worry about the class. When you have time, you can come over anytime." Li Qian smiled and said, "If you don't have time, you can come over anyway."
He then asked with concern, "How is your current condition? Did the doctor say when you can be discharged?"
From the other end of the phone, Niu Fenjin’s bitter voice came, “I can’t die, but I won’t be able to get out in a short time.”
The two chatted a few more words, and when he felt that time was almost up, he didn't delay any more and went straight to the topic.
He told Niu Fenjin the situation he encountered, and the latter thought for a moment and responded, "Generally speaking, there are only two situations when there is a popping sound."
"One is that the jade talisman as the eye of the formation is not up to standard and cannot carry the intensity of the energy surge during the blend; the second situation is that there is a problem with the mental power control and it is not activated at the same time, resulting in fire attribute energy and ice attribute energy. They didn’t arrive at the same time.”
“This is like burning it with fire first and then pouring it with ice water. It would be strange if the energy jade talisman doesn’t explode!”
…”
