Chapter Forty-Five: Escaping the Snare

  ♂?,,

  To be honest, the game of escaping from water weeds is not fun at all. The game requires a high burst of force, and only with strong burst force can you break free from the entanglement of water weeds in an instant. But the key problem is that this is in the water, let alone bursting out, even standing still is not an easy task.

  Chen Mu was very suspicious, wondering if the creator of this card had intentionally mentioned the word "reward" to entice people. Otherwise, such a monotonous game would likely not be able to retain many players.

  He dashed back and forth, consuming a tremendous amount of physical strength. After several rounds, he was already panting heavily. This was still the result of his greatly improved physical fitness after practicing qigong, otherwise even the lowest-level Water Grass would have been able to bind him.

  This aquatic plant is of unknown variety, extremely robust and highly elastic.

  After three days, Chen Mu finally broke free from the two water grasses. He had found a way to reduce his resistance in the water by moving his body like a fish, and it was this discovery that allowed him to escape the entanglement of the two water grasses.

  This small discovery also made Chen Mu somewhat excited. He kept trying to make all sorts of strange poses, feeling the changes in resistance in the water.

  Throughout the entire attempt, Chen Mu discovered that what played the greatest role was actually perception. This discovery shocked him; if it weren't for the perceptual training that required dispersing his perception around his body, he would never have thought of this method.

  He now deeply feels the benefits of this approach, and he can perceive some subtle changes in the surrounding water flow.

  He then realized the technique of exerting force in water based on subtle changes and broke free from the entanglement of aquatic plants.

  However, his excitement did not last long. When the four water weeds wrapped around him, no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get rid of them. Fortunately, as long as he sat still for ten minutes, the weeds would naturally fall off. Otherwise, breathing was a problem.

  Unable to give up, Chen Mu could only make his senses observe the changes in the water flow more carefully, try more movements, and increase his explosive power. Every day, apart from training his senses, he was struggling with these aquatic plants.

  Such a dull game, Chen Mu had been insisting on it. Every little discovery would make him more excited and work harder.

  While he was struggling with water grass, he received an invitation from the club to attend a bilateral meeting next week.

  When he saw the invitation letter, Lei Zi was shocked and stared at Chen Mu like an alien: "Is there a mistake? Isn't it too soon?! High-level bilateral meeting... Wooden head, don't tell me that you're actually some kind of genius!"

  "Genius? Do I look like one?" Chen Mu looked at Lei Zi with an innocent expression.

  "That's true. Speaking of which, I think I'm a bit more like that." Lei Zi nodded in agreement: "But after going once, you've already mixed into the advanced group? This is indeed a bit too powerful!"

  "Could it be sent wrong?" Chen Mu also felt a bit puzzled when Lei Zi said this.

  Leizi nodded in agreement: "I also think that this possibility is the greatest. The high-level group must contribute more than 400 points, right?"

  Chen Mu shook his head: "None." The contribution value on his own membership card was still zero, and he didn't need to take it out; he remembered it very clearly.

  "That's a mistake." Lei Zi said with certainty, then looked at Chen Mu with a pitiful expression and exaggerated tone: "Wooden head, if we go and others say, 'Sorry, sir, we made a mistake.' Then we'll slink back with our tails between our legs. Tsk, tsk, how embarrassing!"

  "That makes sense!" Chen Mu thought for a moment, and then came to a profound conclusion. He casually threw the invitation letter into the trash can, and then turned back to continue his struggle with the water grass in his room.

  "These days, people are too careless in their work, how can they make such mistakes?" Lei Zi muttered to himself, and turned around to enter the room, where he continued to struggle with his script for "The Legend of the Master".

  The low-level Phantom Card Club's senior group had a two-way meeting. A short-haired woman stood at the entrance, her expression showing a few points of anxiety.

  "How come they haven't arrived yet? Didn't the invitation reach them?" She muttered to herself, the high-level meeting at Dongshang Weicheng was quite influential, and there had never been an experience where someone deliberately didn't attend.

  Even if low-level card makers do their best, they are still far inferior to mid-to-high level phantom card makers. They have a closer connection with business, and the club plays an intermediary role.

  "Maple sister, hasn't he arrived yet?" A rather sly-looking guy leaned in behind the short-haired woman, his nose sniffing at her snow-white neck.

  The short-haired woman glared at him: "An Xiaoyou, are you looking for death? You even dare to eat the tofu of a lady?"

  An Xiao Yu smiled slyly: "Feng Jie, you said it yourself, with your natural beauty, which man wouldn't be moved? This is purely an instinctive reaction, uh, that's to say my body reacted faster than my mind, and I accidentally overtook! Hehe!"

  He rubbed his hands together, with a hint of doubt and said: "Maple sister, aren't you fooling me? Is that guy Chen Mu really coming today?"

  "It should be okay." Lan Feng's tone was also somewhat uncertain.

  "That's great, that's great!" An Xiaoyou's small face was excited and slightly flushed, smacking her lips: "This guy is really too strong. How did he think of the simple yet brilliant idea of tying the meter to his hat and glasses? I must get to know this master!"

  Lan Xing rolled her eyes and said in a bad mood, "What? She's the first person to get 400 points in one day since our club was established! Go, help her carry her shoes!"

  An Xiao You's expression was dull and his words were incoherent as he stuttered: "One day... one day... swept away 400 points..."

  "What? Don't believe me?" Lan Feng's expression was also a bit strange: "Hmph, I'm telling you, this is something I personally went to verify." After finishing, he patted An Xiaoyou's shoulder, who was staring blankly, and deliberately teased him: "While you're still young, go and ask someone to be your master"

  Four aquatic plants, still no reward. However, Chen Muo has stopped thinking about rewards now, he feels that his own gains are more tangible than any reward. The technique of exerting force in the water and the application of perception are all so wonderfully enchanting.

  And what's even more astonishing is that this new way of perceiving actually stimulates the growth of perception. Chen Mu's stagnant perception, which had been stuck for a long time, showed a faint and subtle increase.

  Even a very fine thread is enough to make Chen Mu's enthusiasm for the struggle with Watergrass!
