Chapter 856 This Gamble is Interesting
Xue stood up angrily when she heard this. Su Nuan quickly grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "Don't be angry, mother. If you get angry, no one will take your place."
"Hurry up and eat. After you finish, take me to see the whole place. I think I can finish the climb in a day or two. After all, they are not as familiar with the Sifang Kingdom as I am."
Xue originally didn't want Su Nuan to take the risk, but after hearing what Su Nuan said, she felt that it was right.
"Well, don't force it. You're pregnant after all."
Su Nuan nodded obediently, "Don't worry, I won't force you."
Xue nodded. She was very confident in Su Nuan's work, but she still couldn't help but worry.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Mom, are there any rules for that tower?"
Xue shook her head, "No, you can bring anything in."
Su Nuan understood. No wonder Hai Lan asked her to finish it in one day. She had such a huge cheating device as space, which she probably wouldn't be able to use in a day.
Seeing Xue put down her chopsticks, she smiled and said, "Mom, let's go."
Xue nodded, "Okay, let's go."
The Tower of Babel is located in the south of the front city. A black tower stands on the white jade ground. In front of the tower is a large black screen with a hundred numbers on it, followed by names and times.
Su Nuan looked at the number one hundred on the top floor, and behind it was Ling Yun’s name, with 10 written after his name, which meant that he reached the one hundredth floor in ten days.
The 99th floor was taken by Ling Cang, and it took him twenty days.
Su Nuan touched her chin. It took these two people so long to get up there. Could she really do it in one day?
Xue said, "Whether you can make it or not, you must come out in ten days, otherwise I will be worried."
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go see what kind of magical powers are inside."
King Su Nuan walked up the stairs. The gate of the Tower of Babel was open and only one person could enter at a time.
As she reached the door, an old man who looked very knowledgeable said, "Girl, how many floors do you want to break through?"
Su Nuan said casually: "One hundred."
The old man laughed heartily. "Hahaha... one hundred? You actually said you could reach one hundred?"
His smile immediately attracted the people who were looking at the rankings.
An uncle said, "Don't overestimate your abilities. I bet you can only reach the tenth floor."
The old man smiled and said, "I bet you can reach the 50th floor."
Su Nuan then realized that someone was setting up a gambling game nearby. She asked, "Can I gamble on my own?"
The old man shook his head, "No, if you come out at the level you bet on, won't we lose money?"
Su Nuan thought it made sense and said helplessly, "Okay, then I'll go in."
The old man said, "Don't be impatient. Wait half an hour before going in."
Su Nuan blinked and understood what the old man was going to do. He wanted to set up a gambling game and make a profit from it.
But this has nothing to do with me. Why should I wait for something that does me no good?
Seeing Su Nuan frown, the old man said again: "Look over there."
Su Nuan looked at the ranking list and found that there were words behind it.
But the words following it are a long string of numbers with an explanation below.
“The funds in the gambling pool are city construction funds. Those who win the bet will receive double the bet amount, and the rest will be rolled into the fund pool.
"If you bet on a grand slam, you can receive ten times the prize. The prize pool will be cleared at the end of each month and start over."
"Great! This way we'll have funds for urban construction and satisfy the gamblers."
The space spirit transmitted a voice, "Hehehe... This is what I thought. Am I smart?"
Su Nuan praised repeatedly, "Wow...you are so awesome!"
The space spirit hummed a song proudly.
Su Nuan thought about it and realized that the city construction funds were equivalent to sending money to the national treasury. It was indeed her business, so it was no problem to wait for an hour.
When the old man saw Su Nuan nod, he immediately went to organize the gambling game.
As a result, just as the gambling game was organized, the Princess Fuyang came to the gate of the tower.
The old man's eyes lit up immediately when he saw her, and he asked, "Princess Fuyang, are you going to break through?"
Princess Fuyang nodded, "Yes, I originally wanted to start tomorrow, but if I go in early, I can finish early so that I have time to prepare for the coronation ceremony."
The old man smiled and said, "Princess Fuyang is the most talented woman I have ever met. I wonder how long you think it will take to reach the 100th floor?"
Princess Fuyang thought for a moment and said, "I can't guarantee that either. Twenty days should be enough. Maybe I can come out earlier."
Seeing her smooth talk, the old man smiled and said, "Well, I'll bet that the princess will reach the 100th floor within 20 days, but I won't bet on the specific time."
Princess Fuyang's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, but she didn't dare to say anything definite.
Su Nuan was still standing at the door watching the fun, but Princess Fuyang went straight into the tower without even looking at her.
Seeing that Su Nuan had not yet entered, the old man smiled and said, "You can go in."
Su Nuan asked curiously: "You don't even ask my name?"
The old man pointed to the leaderboard and said, "Your name will be displayed when you enter."
Su Nuan nodded, and she asked again: "Then can I ask what you bet on?"
The old man hesitated and said, "The highest bet you can make is the 50th floor, that's my bet."
Su Nuan curled her lips, "You won't let me place my own bet, and you've placed such a small amount. If you believe me, one hundred floors in one day."
After she finished speaking, she lifted her legs and walked inside, and a burst of boos erupted behind her.
Su Nuan blocked out the noise as she entered the room. She said to herself helplessly, "Ah... no one believes me. Never mind. They are all the heroes who have enriched the national treasury. I can't blame them."
It was only when Su Nuan looked around that she realized she was indeed on the first floor of the tower. There was a huge dice on the ground, and next to the dice was a sign with densely written words.
"Lift the dice and roll. Go to the floor with the number you roll."
Su Nuan was a little puzzled, so she called out to the space spirit, "Xiao Ling, what's going on with this dice?"
"If I voted six, will I go to the sixth floor? Without any assessment?"
The Space Spirit laughed and said, "In fact, there are only ten difficult problems in the Tower of Babel. The rest are just to make up the numbers."
"After all, there's a bet outside. What if you collude with others? If you go in and out on the 20th floor, wouldn't it be a sure win for the people outside to bet on the 20th floor?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, but what use can this dice have?"
The Space Spirit laughed and said, "This first level is meant to confuse people. No matter how much you invest, you will encounter the first difficulty."
"After you answer the questions, the dice will roll again. This way, you may be able to skip the level you want to go to, but you can't skip the difficult questions."
Su Nuan understood and praised: "How smart."
The space spirit laughed and said, "That's right, don't you see who I am?"
Su Nuan didn't say anything and kicked the dice. The dice was very light and rolled for a long time before turning from one to two and stopping.
Her eyes blurred, and when her vision cleared, she was already standing in a field.
A sign stuck in the field read, "Grow Wheat."
Su Nuan went to the shelf next to her to find the wheat grains, buried them in the soil and poured water on them.
"Won't this make me wait months?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the wheat began to sprout and soon formed ears of wheat.
The Space Spirit said, "This level is actually a test of seed identification. Everyone who comes in will find a different seed, it's random."
Su Nuan pulled out the wheat and was transported to the next level before she could say anything. She asked in astonishment, "What's going on? Didn't I answer correctly? Why was I thrown back to the next level?"
