Chapter 1096: Queuing
After standing firm, Yang Xuanyi had no intention of asking anyone else to try. He walked out of the stone room with a sullen head and walked towards the next stone room.
Soon, everyone went to the third stone room and spent some effort to break the restrictions on the door of the stone room.
The situation in the third stone chamber is almost the same as the previous two stone chambers, except that the Star Guard stored there is No. 190.
This time, Yang Xuanyi didn't even bother to try. He just glanced at the situation in the stone room, turned around and walked deeper into the passage.
"Wait!"
At this moment, a voice sounded from behind the crowd.
Everyone looked back and found that the person who spoke out was Duan Qing, who had been silent for a long time.
Yang Xuanyi looked at Duan Qing, feeling quite irritable, and said impatiently: "What's the matter with you?"
Duan Qing looked directly at Yang Xuanyi and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "This is the sect master, this disciple feels that there is no need to continue walking!"
"Why?" Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows.
"Because Star Guard No. 1 is not in this passage." Duan Qing's tone was very firm as he spoke.
"Oh...what evidence do you have for saying that?" Yang Xuan became a little more interested.
Duan Qing shook his head: "This disciple has no evidence. He only speculates based on what he knows that Star Guard No. 1 is not in this passage."
Hearing that Duan Qing was just speculating, Yang Xuanyi couldn't help but feel a little impatient, but considering that Mu Yu was still present, it was hard to get angry.
"tell me the story."
Duan Qing did not give in and explained directly: "The disciple discovered that the three star guards before were all metallic, so it is speculated that the metallic star guards should be stored in this channel."
"And Star Guard No. 1 has water attributes, so it is basically impossible to be in this passage!"
Hearing what Duan Qing said, Yang Xuanyi was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask: "How did you know the attributes of the three previous star guards, and how did you know that the first star guard has the water attribute?"
You know, the perception here is still suppressed. He also touched the bodies of the first two star guards with his own hands, and then he felt that the two star guards were metallic.
As for Duan Qing, he had never even entered the stone chamber before.
What's even more incredible is that he has never seen that Star Guard No. 1, let alone its specific attributes. How did Duan Qing know that Star Guard No. 1 has the water attribute!
Not only Yang Xuanyi was surprised, the rest of the people at the scene also looked at Duan Qing curiously, wondering how Duan Qing knew so much.
Facing the confused looks from everyone, Duan Qing smiled faintly, glanced at Xiao Hong beside him, and explained: "Xiao Hong once revealed to his disciples the rules for ranking Star Guards!"
"For star guards within a thousand numbers, there are rules for ranking them. The specific order is water, wood, fire, earth, and metal."
"Among them, the star guardians whose endings are one and two are both of water attribute. The endings of three and four are both of wood attribute. The ones whose endings are five and six are of fire attribute, and the endings of seven and eight are of earth attribute."
"Satellites whose endings are nine and zero are all metallic."
"The three satellites previously were numbered 200, 199, and 190. They all ended in nine and zero."
"That's why I know that the three star guards are metallic. According to the numbering rules, I speculate that star guard No. 1 is a water star guard."
After listening to Duan Qing's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.
In the Shinto Sect, although there is a lot of information about the Broken Star Palace, there is no record of the rules for ranking stars.
Because when the Star Guard appears in its normal form, it does not have any numbers or marks on it. When fighting against the Star Guard, you can only judge the Star Guard's attributes.
Through fighting, at most the approximate number of the star guard can be guessed based on the star guard's strength. As for knowing the specific number of the star guard, there is no way.
In the past, there were very few Star Guards born in the Broken Star Palace. Even though the Shinto Sect was the overlord of the Destiny Star, they had never been lucky enough to get a Star Guard, so they had no chance to learn these things from the Star Guards.
Duan Qing's explanation today solved everyone's long-standing doubts.
Yang Xuanyi glanced at Xiaohong enviously, and then asked Duan Qing: "Since you know so much, do you know where the No. 1 Star Guard is?"
On the surface, he was asking Duan Qing, but actually he was asking Xiaohong.
In fact, Duan Qing had already sent a message to ask Xiao Hong about the same question, knowing that Xiao Hong was not aware of this matter.
"Disciple doesn't know the specific location of Star Guard No. 1, but we can narrow the search range." Duan Qing answered truthfully.
Yang Xuanyi was a little disappointed: "That's fine, let's go back first."
No one objected to Yang Xuanyi's decision.
After Duan Qing's explanation, everyone was basically convinced that Satellite No. 1 was not in this passage.
While walking back, Duan Qing explained more of his speculations to everyone.
According to his observation, there were a total of twenty-five passages in the previous Broken Star Secret Vault, and there were forty stone chambers in the passage that the Shinto Sect took.
Although he has not walked through other passages, he thinks it should be the same.
Twenty-five passages, assuming each passage has forty stone chambers, then the total number of stone chambers is one thousand, which exactly corresponds to the number of one thousand satellites.
Judging from the current situation, the layout of this place is basically the same as that of the Broken Star Secret Vault, and the number of stone chambers should be the same, as many as a thousand.
Combining the naming rules of star guards that Xiao Hong told him, as well as the attributes of the star guards stored in the three stone chambers before, it is not difficult to deduce that the twenty-five channels should store star guards of various attributes, and every five Each channel is a group, and each group has two hundred stone chambers, storing two hundred star guards of a certain attribute.
That is to say, if we only need to find the five passages where the water-attributed star guards are stored, we should be able to find the legendary Star Guard No. 1 in them.
Even if we don't need to search all of the five passages, we only need to find the passage with the smallest number of water-attributed star guards in the first stone chamber of the five passages where the water-attributed star guards are stored.
Because from the order in which the star guards are stored, it is obvious that the deeper you go, the smaller the number.
Compared to searching all 25 passages, this will undoubtedly save a lot of time.
After leaving the original passage, the group found the 192nd water-attributed star guard in the first stone chamber of one of the passages without much effort.
According to Duan Qing's words and everyone's inference, this means that Star Guard No. 1 is undoubtedly at the deepest part of this passage.
Without any hesitation, Yang Xuanyi immediately ordered Duan Qing, Xue Wanyun, Yu Ya, and Yang Huang, a total of four juniors, to gather the people in the other passages, and he led most of the remaining people to quickly move to the depths of the passage.
Duan Qing thought Yang Xuanyi's decision was very wise, and immediately followed his instructions and began to gather other people.
The four of them split into four groups and went to different passages to recall the people in the passages.
Fortunately, many teams broke the restrictions in the first few stone chambers of each passage and did not go too deep into the passage, which saved Duan Qing and the other four a lot of time.
Not long after, the four of them gathered all the teams together and prepared to go to the passage where the No. 1 Star Guard was located to support Yang Xuanyi and others.
However, just when everyone wanted to enter the passage, they heard a deafening sound from the passage.
