"Help us get the Clear Lake inheritance human, and we will give you the fortune. Even one of the inheritances here isn't out of the question," said the Nem race man.
I did not say anything and appeared in front of the door of the Clear Lake inheritance.
It is not a door, but a portal to another space bubble. The Clear Lake inheritance is too valuable to put in the same space as the other inheritances.
"I can't promise anything till I see the formation and answer sheets," I said as I turned to them.
"Here are the formation and answer sheets," said Nem man and threw the crystal at me. He is not the only one. The others have also done the same; I cached it and seeped my soul sense into them.Within a minute, my expression changed and for more than fifteen minutes, they became more intense, before suddenly smoothening up.
"Can you do it?" asked iras woman nervously as I turned to them.
"Yes, I can do it, but it will take time," I said. To be honest, I am not really sure whether I will solve the formation or not, but I said yes.
As there is no other choice.
"We have one and a half months. Will that be enough?" she asked.
"Yes," I said simply. "Good, do it, and I we would give you all you desire," said tiger beastman, clearly implying I might get my freedom, if I solved it.
"I will need some advance payment first, and I hope it will be good enough to fill me with motivation to solve it as soon as possible," I said shamelessly, and I could see the anger lightning in their eyes, with killing intent they are barely suppressing.I looked at them and showed it through my eyes, that I don't care what they think. They better give me something good or I will not solve the formation.
They will not kill me, no matter what I do, until they get their hands on the Clean Lake inheritance.
After that, there is a very high chance they will kill me in the most painful way.
"As I had said, we do not mind giving you anything you want. We just hope you will solve the formation," said iras race woman, putting a sweet smile on her face.
I smiled back sweetly and keep looking at her. As I had said, I will not start, unless I receive some prepayment.
I could see everyone was looking at me from anger to killing intent. Only Kara had mirth in her eyes.
We stared at each other. For a couple of seconds more, before finally, a crystal box appeared in the hands of iras woman, and she threw at it me.
I took the box and opened it. Immediately, a frown appeared on my face. The thing is good, but it is at the same level as the things they have offered me before.
"This is an insult to my knowledge," I said and threw the box back at me and the rage that appeared in her eyes at my gesture.
Seeing it had chilled my heart.
I thought, she will bring her aura down at me, but to my surprise, she smiled beautifully.
"My mistake. I hope this will be enough to motivate you," she said as the crystal box disappeared in front of her hands and a wooden one appeared.
She threw it at me.
I caught the wooden box and opened it, and immediately, the smile on my face brightened up.
It had a blue lotus in it. It is called aqua lumen lotus. What made it even more amazing was that it had seeds in it and I was going to plant them in my core.
"Thank you," I said to her and turned to tiger beastman.
It couldn't help but surprise him and the other two, while ira's woman smiled. They shouldn't be surprised. I told them I want the resources from four of them.
They should be grateful that I am not asking for it from the rest of them.
"Here," said the tiger beastman a few seconds later, with a faintly shaking hand.
He is so angry that he is having a hard time controlling his emotion. I don't care, he can get angry as he wants. As long as he gives me the resource, I will be happy.
I opened the stone box, and another smile appeared on my face. A second later, the stone box disappeared, and I turned to the nem man.
The two did not waste any time and quickly gave me the resources, wonderful resources.
"Thank you for your wonderful gifts. I will try to solve the formation quickly as possible," I said and entered the isolation formation.
A minute later, I was at my core, solving the formation with my clone.
Days passed when suddenly, I opened my eyes. I had not solved the formation, but I had learned something. It gave me some hope to escape, but it is a very tiny one and I am powerless.
So, I am going to take the risk.
I took a deep breath and looked at Kara. She was in her isolation, solving the formation. It is not just her, but also the formation masters they have brought.
While I solve the formation to open the gate of Clear Lake, they will try for the inheritances here. They might get a few by the time I solve the formation.
'Elma. Do you know any way to escape, if I take you inside the Clear Lake room?' I asked her. Taking the name they have called her, not the one she told me in Klahan.
I am taking a huge risk here; not only asking a question but also openly using rule-bending power. It is the only thing I could use that will evade the soul senses of so many sovereigns.
For nearly a minute, there was no answer, and I was about to try again when I heard her voice.
'If you could take me inside the room. I have a way to help us escape,' she said, and she asked with such confidence that I did not even want to ask 'really?'.
'I hope you are telling the truth,' I said. 'I am. Take me into the room and I promise you, we will escape,' she said.
This time, I sensed the desperation along with the confidence in her voice.
'Ok,' I said.
I don't know whether she is telling the truth or not, but she is the only hope I have. I need to believe her, as without it, I will be killed.
The moment these people get their hands on the Clear Lake inheritance, the first thing they will do is kill me.
So, with purpose burning in my heart. I focused on everything; I have to solve the formation.
It was hard, and I needed to take help from my clone and many of the books in the library.
I had solved the formation and surprisingly it only took me nine and a half days to do it.
Though, I shouldn't be surprised or even feel even a hint of pride.
I had not solved it on my own. The literal answer sheets were in front of me, guiding me at every step.
