Chapter 114: Patterns and Chances

—10000!

The moment he stepped into the lava, a five-digit fire-red burn damage floated above the decoy's head! It was the same kind of burn damage, and the cold protection potion was still in effect, yet it didn't provide any resistance!

It seems that this is a special kind of burn damage that mutated cold protection cannot resist. Amazing!

Xiao Hua thought about the attribute description of the cold protection potion, which could only immunize against ordinary burn damage, and couldn't help but feel a cold sweat at the high burn damage of the lava. Falling into it would mean certain death!

Before this, Xiao Hua had thought that if the damage caused by the lava wasn't too high, when the flame giant approached the decoy, even if it hadn't reached the edge of the lava yet, if it was only a difference of two or three steps, he could completely let the decoy step on the lava to sneak past and steal. But now, this result completely eliminated the last trace of luck in Xiao Hua's mind!

Now that the burn problem of the red rock ground has been successfully solved, the next step is to find the moving pattern of the flame giant. As long as the decoy's actions are in line with the pattern when the flame giant approaches the edge of the lava, the decoy can also move to the edge of the lava at almost the same time, and then carry out the theft action.

The potions are limited, so next, Xiao Hua began to observe the moving pattern of the flame giant obediently. Although the distance was far, the flame giant was extremely huge, and it was not difficult for Xiao Hua to observe. The problem was that although the flame giant moved extremely slowly, there was almost no pattern, and it moved around in the lava area at will.

Xiao Hua, who was not willing to give up, observed for nearly an hour, and in the end, had to admit that the flame giant indeed had no moving pattern!

It is undoubtedly a very bad message that there is no obvious pattern under the condition that the lava cannot be touched, but it is not so bad as to be desperate. In this hour, Xiao Hua found that the flame giant approached the edge of the lava nine times. Although the places where the nine times were close were not very similar, it was a stroke of luck in the misfortune, at least he still had a chance!

There is no obvious pattern, but there is a chance. As long as you find the approximate time interval and the most likely place where the flame giant moves to the edge of the lava each time, there is a considerable possibility of contacting the flame giant. It is undoubtedly necessary to continue observing to get this data that may exist or may not exist.

Xiao Hua was not in a hurry and continued to squint at the distant flame giant.

In the blink of an eye, another half an hour passed, and Xiao Hua still didn't see any clues.

Xiao Hua simply squatted on the ground, took out a bun from his pocket, and observed the movement of the flame giant while nibbling on the bun. In this scorching hot lava cave, the physical consumption of the character was amazing, and it was necessary to replenish physical strength every two hours to maintain normal body activity.

Xiao Hua has been squatting for another two hours, and finally let out a heavy sigh, standing up from the ground.

After more than three hours of observation, he finally found a more certain pattern.

The four points where the flame giant approached the edge of the lava can be said to be fixed. Each time it reaches the same point at the edge of the lava, the error does not exceed one meter. The most important point is that if you mark the four fixed points as points A, B, C, and D from left to right, when the flame giant moves to the first three points in the order of A, B, and C, the fourth point must be D! However, there are still uncertain factors. The time interval for the flame giant to move to each point is also random. Even if you know which point the flame giant will move to last, you still need luck to contact the flame giant in the only 14 seconds!

However, Xiao Hua's more than three hours of squatting observation did not only get this piece of information. He also knew that the time interval for the flame giant to walk to the edge of the lava each time is between 5 and 7 minutes. He still has 6 chances, and it is very possible to carry out a theft action!

The difficulty of stealing from the flame giant has far exceeded Xiao Hua's initial imagination. There is indeed no such good thing as a pie falling from the sky in this world!

If the six chances are used up and the sea god necklace is successfully obtained, it is naturally good. If it fails, Xiao Hua will unhesitatingly choose the second task and obediently offer six million gold coins to Sister Lina. To successfully steal from the flame giant, it takes too much time. If there is nothing to do in the future, it is possible to consider coming to try to steal something, but I don't know if I can borrow shoes from Lina at that time.

Silently watching the movement of the flame giant, Xiao Hua is now ready to take action.

A, B, C!

After watching for nearly an hour, Xiao Hua finally waited for the flame giant to walk out of the ABC order. The moment the flame giant left point C, Xiao Hua immediately calculated the system time, while observing the current position of the flame giant. If it was the fifth minute and the flame giant was still walking towards the inside of the lava from a place close to the outer edge, then the time for the flame giant to approach the edge of the outside this time will inevitably be longer!

It's almost five minutes!

The flame giant in the distance is walking slowly and heavily, and when it is about to walk towards the inside of the lava from a place close to the outer edge, Xiao Hua was about to wait a little longer before drinking the potion to let the decoy pass, but he didn't expect the flame giant to turn around abruptly and move towards the outside of the lava!

This guy's movement is really unpredictable!

Seeing this, Xiao Hua hurriedly drank the cold protection potion, then called the decoy, and let the decoy run towards point D quickly, praying that the flame giant would walk slowly, and the decoy could arrive in time. It takes a lot of time and patience to seize such an opportunity.

The flame giant seemed to have heard Xiao Hua's prayer, and stopped abruptly when it was about to reach point D, paused for a while, and its burning head turned around as if looking for something.

Hmm, there's a chance!

The decoy is not far from point D at this time, and Xiao Hua is overjoyed when he sees this. It seems that this time, he can successfully contact the flame giant.

Seeing that the decoy is only two steps away from point D, and as long as the flame giant moves forward a little, the decoy can steal, the flame giant suddenly turns around and walks back towards the inside of the lava!

Xiao Hua stared blankly as the flame giant walked farther and farther away, and his heart was cold and washed!

Damn it, you can't be so shameless as a boss. If you take one more step and turn around, will you die!

Xiao Hua has also seen this situation of almost walking to the edge and turning back many times in his observation, but he never thought that the flame giant would do this at this critical moment!

In the blink of an eye, the flame giant has been walking slowly and sluggishly towards the inside. The decoy has no choice but to wait for the potion effect to disappear at the spot, and then be exposed by the red rock ground, revealing its figure.

At such a close distance, the flame giant would not react again. Xiao Hua still had a trace of fantasy, thinking that the flame giant would run over to attack the decoy closely, and then the decoy could steal the opportunity. However, different from the fantasy, the flame giant opened its mouth and let out a dull roar, and a basin-sized, burning red fireball appeared out of thin air, falling from the sky like a meteorite!

Xiao Hua was naturally unwilling to let the decoy die, and seeing that the speed of the red fireball did not seem to be too fast to avoid, he controlled the decoy to escape to one side. After all, once the decoy can successfully escape the attack of the red fireball, if the same situation happens again, he can completely let the decoy expose itself, attract the attention of the flame giant, and let the flame giant move forward a little bit, and then the decoy can steal while dodging the attack.

The red fireball does not track, and when the decoy escapes from the original place, the fireball slams into the ground with a bang. Xiao Hua is secretly fortunate to escape fast, but the fireball quickly bursts and spreads on the ground like a liquid, and in the blink of an eye, it engulfs the decoy into the burning ground!

—5000!

It's another fire-red burn damage, a bit lower than the burn effect of the lava, but still most professions can't bear it.

And looking at the basin-sized red fireball slamming into the ground, it instantly forms a burning area with a radius of five or six meters in an
