After the land connecting the [area] stabilized, the Jingzhou University exploration team set out together and flew in the direction of the change.

The distant view that had been unattainable no matter how far they advanced before became different only in this direction. They exceeded the distance of their previous flight and arrived at a new and vast [area].

When entering the intersection of the two [areas], Wen Li immediately noticed the change in the hidden energy properties of the area.

Her beast taming talent [Burning Blood] is extremely sensitive to fire energy. Compared to the previous [area] that only had a single earth attribute, this [area] connected by the rotation of the [black and white squares] is a dual-system [area] of fire and earth attributes.

Using the position in a Rubik's Cube as an analogy, this should be an edge block located in the middle of the edge row, connected to the adjacent faces.

Hiiragi's guess about the structure of the Rubik's Cube is very likely to be true!

Everyone was excited about the successful verification and explored the area according to the plan made before departure.

This is an area with hidden energy of both fire and earth attributes, and there live extraordinary creatures of the earth and fire attributes. The terrain is still dominated by swamps, and a huge active volcano appears at the end.

The Jingzhou University exploration team defeated many wild supernatural creatures of different attributes along the way. No matter whether the targets were fire or earth, what was left after they dissipated were the [monochrome magic elements] of the night soul body.

After collecting enough small black soft light cubes, they found the [Lord of the Area] of this area, a first-level [Fire Tortoise] of the intermediate monarch race living on the edge of the volcano.

Because of Xu Chenglu's relationship, Wen Li, Chen Jiashu, and Mu Liuyue from the same class were all very familiar with this extraordinary creature. They defeated it without much effort and obtained the large-grained Night Soul Body [Monochrome Magic Element] of the corresponding level.

When this black cube absorbed the other small cubes and grew to a size with a side length of more than 20 centimeters, the five members of the Jingzhou University exploration team disappeared at the same time, and were teleported from this dual-attribute [area] of fire and earth to a completely different new [area].

The entire transmission process was exactly the same as described by the Yunzhou University exploration team.

After arriving at the new [area], Mu Huoyue checked his investigator bracelet. This is the area where the three types of hidden energies of ice, wood, and fire converge.

"Is this the so-called [corner block] area in the Rubik's Cube?" Xiang Xun also looked at the reading on the investigator's bracelet and sighed.

The blocks located at the eight right-angled positions of the three-order Rubik's Cube have three colors. When converted into the secret realm of the Rubik's Cube structure, they should be unique areas with three attributes at the same time.

The two independent [areas] experienced so far are both consistent with Mu Huoyue's speculation about the structure of the Rubik's Cube.

"Not only that..." Mu Chuyue looked at the [Mini Puzzle Cube] in his hand and marked the corner where the three colors of ice, wood and fire intersected.

The other large central ground block, the ice, water, wind and thunder blocks, and the earth and fire blocks that had just passed by were all marked by her.

"The attribute distribution of the three [areas] we have arrived at so far is consistent with this little Rubik's Cube toy."

Mu Chuyue said thoughtfully, "Perhaps the attributes [areas] within the entire 'Dou Zhuan Star Domain'... also conform to this distribution structure? ā€

This [Educational Rubik's Cube] is made according to the most common unified specifications of Rubik's Cube toys.

Including the size of the cube, the rotation mode, the distribution of colors on the six sides of the cube and the extraordinary properties they represent, they are all the most classic and traditional styles.

Mu Chuyue didn't know who invented the Rubik's Cube in the Beast Taming World, or which region it originally came from, but what was certain was that the Rubik's Cube was born later than the time when the S-level secret realm "Dou Zhuan Xingyu" appeared.

Jingzhou University has a long history, and "Douzhuan Star Domain" is a secret realm where the advent phenomenon occurred in the early days of the school. During the subsequent decades of exploration and exchanges, the lord of the secret realm [Ajiu] and the third-generation president forged a deep friendship, thus starting cooperation with Jingzhou University.

Counting from the stable advent period, the "Dou Zhuan Star Domain" has been in the world for at least four to five hundred years.

In this world, the development of human civilization is closely related to secret realms and extraordinary creatures. Perhaps, just like the steam engine and [coal miners], magnetic field electricity and [magnetic force], the observation and birth of the Rubik's Cube also originated from the existence of the "Dou Zhuan Star Domain".

In this way, the internal structure of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yu" is consistent with the most classic traditional Rubik's Cube toys, which makes it easier to explain.

"At least it proves that our current guesses and plans are correct!" Wen Li was very happy. Nothing could make her more excited than witnessing the moment when Hiiragi's fantastic idea became a reality.

"After going through a few more [areas] and matching the six attribute surfaces one by one, I will be able to determine the structure of the entire Rubik's Cube and how to restore it." Mu Huoyue thought.

Chen Jiashu looked at his teammates and said, "It's good to see progress... But do you all know how to solve the Rubik's Cube?"

"Let me make it clear first, I can't do that." He shrugged, "My understanding of this thing is limited to observation."

Zheng Lin raised his hand embarrassedly, indicating that he didn't know how to do it either.

Wen Li and Xiang Xun looked at each other. They both played this game when they were kids but couldn't reproduce it skillfully.

If I work hard, it shouldn't be that difficult to restore just one side...right?

The four of them couldn't help but look at Mu Liuyue.

The black-haired girl stared at the small Rubik's Cube toy in her hand, observed the position of the central block briefly, and then quickly rotated the small cube with the khaki side representing the earth as the base.

Everyone saw her ten fingers flying, and in about a minute, she restored the colors of the six sides of the Rubik's Cube completely.

After the last square was put back on track, Mu Huoyue let out a sigh of relief.

The restoration time of more than one minute is not too fast, but it is something that only people who are very familiar with the structure of the Rubik's Cube and the restoration steps can do.

She could solve the Rubik's Cube because of her experience before the time travel. When thinking and reviewing, Mu Huoyue was used to doing something simple that required concentration but did not strain her brain, to help herself enter a state of efficient meditation, and restoring the Rubik's Cube was one of them.

After witnessing Mu Shuyue's brilliant performance, the teammates were completely relieved. As long as she was with the Jingzhou University exploration team, they would be able to restore the desired attribute area and reach the [special location] on the task list.

"What we need to do next is to defeat as many extraordinary creatures in different [areas] as possible, obtain the [monochrome magic element] of the night soul body, until we are teleported to the [area] of a single attribute, which is the central plot, and evolve the [black and white square] there to gain the authority to rotate the entire area, right?" Wen Li concluded.

"And figure out what attribute of the [area] the [special location] on our task list belongs to." Xiang Xun added.

"About this..." Chen Jiashu looked around.

This is an area where ice, fire, and wood converge, with the ice system and water system being considered one. In the natural environment of the area, this is reflected in the sea and rivers with large expanses of floating ice, and extraordinary plants with ice properties miraculously blooming on the glaciers. Further away is a dormant volcano with a snow-capped top.

"I remember the target resource [Flame in the Snow] is a rare extraordinary resource with the paradoxical attribute of ice?"

"Don't you think it's very suitable to grow in such an environment?"

Everyone looked around and agreed.

"You're right. Comprehensively speaking, the possibility of ice and water attributes is the highest." Xiang Xun pulled up a piece of his scarf and nodded silently.

"Then let's temporarily target the central [area] of ice and water attributes and conduct exploration and transfer."

Mu Huoyue looked into the distance, his eyes fell on the dormant volcano on the snow-capped top, and he fell into deep thought.

"Have you made any new discoveries, Hiiragi?" Wen Li looked at her friend and asked.

Mu Yuyue retracted her gaze and replied, "It just made some related associations."

"If we want to complete the mission of finding the [Lord of the Secret Realm], it is definitely not enough to just restore the location of the [Eternal Life Lotus Sea]."

ā€œI’m thinking that perhaps the magic cube structure of the entire secret realm is more closely connected to the master of the secret realm [Ajiu] than we thought.ā€

"The change from [Monochrome Magic Element] to [Black and White Squares] is somewhat different from the true evolution of extraordinary creatures. They are part of the secret area, just like the tiny pixels that make up the natural environment."

"If everything, including the secret realm itself, is part of [Ajiu]..."

"This also explains why [Deterrence] and [Emperor's Domain] have no effect on the extraordinary creatures in the secret realm."

"Because the one who truly bears the domain skills is the [Lord of the Secret Realm] of the Miracle Fantasy Race, and we are all in the [Fantasy Realm] under its control."

After Mu Huoyue finished speaking, she gently shook her head.

"That's something we need to think about later. Right now we should focus on the [Black and White Quartet]."

"Let's find the [Lord of the Region] here as soon as possible, get the [Monochrome Magic Element] of the Night Soul Body, and then go to the next [Region]."

…

…

Outside the secret realm, at the stable connection point of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yu" on the campus of Jingzhou University, the staff of the National Competition Organizing Committee and the person in charge of secret realm affairs of Jingzhou University were talking.

The eight participating teams have entered the "Dou Zhuan Star Domain" one after another. It is impossible to use monitoring methods such as the [Video System Type V] inside the secret realm. Therefore, all the organizing committee can do in the final is to observe and protect the status of the secret realm connection points.

As the master of the secret realm, [Ajiu] will ensure the safety of all contestants. This is the agreement between it and the third-generation president of Jingzhou University. In the past hundred years, it has been taking care of Jingzhou University students who entered the "Douzhuan Star Domain" to seek opportunities for breakthroughs.

The staff from both sides were bored just sitting there, so the conversation turned to the topic of the participating teams as usual.

The person in charge of Kyoto University is full of confidence in this school team. In fact, anyone who has met Mu Shuyue will have confidence in her. This young beastmaster is not only extremely talented in combat, she is also calm and intelligent far beyond her peers. She has a solid foundation and extensive knowledge, and can play to her strengths in any environment.

Even if she had to enter a completely unfamiliar S-level secret realm, she would definitely lead the Beijing University team to win the final.

The staff of the organizing committee are more optimistic about Sin Chew University, which has performed very well in the past two years.

The Xingda team does not only have members who are good at fighting. They have balanced development in all areas. The overall quality of the participating students far exceeds that of other schools. It is even more worth looking forward to on such an extreme final stage as the Secret Realm.

Neither of them could convince the other, and the discussion gradually attracted more people to join.

As one of the parties involved, Professor Guo Ning, the leader of the Xingzhou University team who came to the competition, a nationally renowned expert in intelligent pet research and who had hosted international academic exchange conferences, said goodbye to everyone with a smile and politely, and returned to the rest area prepared by the organizing committee for the participating teams.

When there was no one around and Professor Guo Ning was alone in the room, he suddenly stopped smiling.

He was a well-known researcher at Xingda University and was not in charge of beast taming battles. He should not have been in charge of leading the school team to participate in the final of the national competition.

The reason why he came to Jingzhou University in person was to complete a secret mission.

Earlier, during an academic exchange meeting, Lin Fei was arrested by the Affairs Bureau on charges of attacking a fellow beastmaster in a secret territory. Before the proof of his existence disappeared, he sent a last-minute message back to the organization.

His obsession seemed to have turned into a pitch-black skeleton, clamoring to destroy that [moving point].

The organization has spent the past few months trying to find out what the "moving point" discovered by Lin Fei is.

They ruled out countless possibilities and finally locked their sights on the reason why Lin Fei was arrested, the beastmaster with the [Skeleton], who was once a classmate of Lin Fei and later a beastmaster who entered the Combat Department of Jingzhou University, Mu Liuyue.

Lin Fei is not stupid, but he has a reckless personality and cannot distinguish the importance of things at critical moments. In fact, he has a strong talent that can withstand the possibilities of all parallel worlds. He should have been a good seedling that the organization focused on training, but in the end, he was unexpectedly defeated by this girl of the same age.

There might really be something strange about Mu Chuyue that made Lin Fei obsessed with her again and again.

If she is the [moving point], even if there is only a tiny possibility, the organization will never let her exist safely in the world.

However, it is not an easy task to attack a Level 6 Beast Tamer who possesses the combat power of a mature emperor race. Moreover, Mu Shuyue is still in the territory of Dayan and is under the protection of the Affairs Bureau and the Beast Tamer Association.

The organization is preparing to use another method, allowing the cause and effect of the world itself to bring her death.

In Gabriel's calculated scenario, no possibility of Mu Huoyue being consistent with the moving point was observed. In the parallel world with Beta convergence closest to this world, in more than 98% of the future scenarios, she would die at the same moment.

In other words, this was the moment of her doomed death.

All the organization needs to do is to bring this destined future into reality ahead of time.

Professor Guo Ning witnessed with his own eyes that all the participating teams, including Mu Shuyue's Jingzhou University team, entered the connection point of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yu".

Here, all the necessary elements and causes and effects in Gabriel's calculation scenario have been met.

He took out a peculiarly shaped artificial device from the beast-controlling space. It was covered with unknown metal all over. Its lines were full of the smoothness of modern technology, and its shape was like a pitch-black seed.

This pitch-black seed floats in the palm of his hand. Once a special instruction is implanted, it can bring a real dream to the world.

This will be a dream of death bestowed upon Mu Huoyue, and also a dream of disaster bestowed upon this land.

The metal seed slowly opened in his hand.
