Encryptions? Puzzles? Codified games? This was what he was best at.


    Leonel ignored the firstyer of encryptions and sunk deeper. The firstyer was on a scale of 100 trillion atoms. The second was on a scale of 10 trillion. The third was on a scale of a trillion and was the finalyer.


    The interesting thing about the Memory Ore was that it had no blockades toward looking toward a deeper level. However, the deeper one delved, the more convoluted and difficult it would be to pick out theyers, almost as though one was trying to untangle a pair of earphone cords with a single pull.


    However, for Leonel, it felt like he was staring down this tangled mess of cords, his eyes shing as he followed the snaking path of one wire at a time.


    ''I see… So if I had just stepped in andpleted the first encryptionyer, I would have ruined the rest of it. At best, I would end uppletely off course and never find theter portions of [Dimensional Cleanse]. At worst, I would end up in some ckhole somewhere and never be seen or heard from again.''


    Leonel chuckled at his own dark humor.


    If there was one thing he loved to do, it was win. But, he was also a softy at heart and often took a backseat so he wouldn''t hurt the feelings of others. This led to an odd imbnce where sometimes he would go all out, and sometimes he would seem as though he was just taking a leisurely stroll and couldn''t be bothered with the oue.


    But, single yer games like this one were different. There was no one to ''hurt'' the feelings of here. It was him versus a puzzle some old man had probably had a lot of fun putting together. So, for a moment, he forgot about all his worries.


    Leonel had almost made the very same mistake he had just warned himself against. The moment he had seen the first encryption, he had already thought of a solution and it was probably the easiest solution avable. But, his instincts told him that things probably shouldn''t be so easy.


    As intelligent as Leonel was, he was also aware of what was considered difficult for others and what was not. This perspective was incredibly important, especially if he wanted to be a King. He couldn''t just simply assign people impossible tasks because he thought they were ''easy enough'' toplete.


    Luckily, Leonel had good EQ and an objective, almost too systematic, view of the world to pair with it.


    That first solution was something everyone but Raj would be able to think of within the first ten minutes of seeing it. And, even Raj might be able to fumble his way through in about five more minutes as long as he didn''t give up.


    Simply put… the solution was too easy.


    So, Leonel grew suspicious and looked deeper. As expected, it was ayered puzzle. Shifts in the firstyer impacts the next and subsequentyers.


    But, this made perfect sense. The Memory Ore was a whole and solid piece. It had a chemical structure that was entirely interdependent. Of course a change at the beginning would impact the rest.


    The irony of it all was that if Leonel went with the first solution, the secondyer would untangle in a way that made it even easier to solve. And, should he go with the first solution he thought of for the secondyer, the thirdyer would follow the same pattern. Do you want to read more chapters? Come to


    But, if Leonel then followed suit andpleted the first solution for the thirdyer, the secondyer would deform into a moreplex form. And if he solved the secondyer again, the same would happen to the first.


    It would result in a cycle of ever increasingplexity without end.


    The good news about identally following this path was that, as far as Leonel could tell, it was possible to undo it by backtracking. But, the bad news was that backtracking couldn''t be done by simply doing the reverse of what you had done.


    Leonel ced down the Memory Ore on hisp and entered his Dream World. With a thought, a replica of the first threeyers formed.


    The first thing he did was begin to count the number of solutions for the firstyer. But, after he got to ten thousand, his lip couldn''t help but continuously twitch.


    Not only did each subsequent solution be harder to find, but Leonel had a feeling that there truly were an infinite number. If he tried to count them out and choose the best, he would be here for a lifetime.


    ''What a clever puzzle…''


    The threeyers floated in space almost like chemical model made of sticks and balls. Every shift, even if it was just in one, interrupted everything else, making the task especially daunting.


    At that moment, Leonel''s eyes glowed.


    ''Every shift interrupts everything else… In that case, why bother starting with the firstyer? No, more urately, there''s no obligation to start there.''


    If Leonel looked at eachyer individually, they all seemed to have countless solutions. For every solution he thought of for the firstyer, he would proceed to the secondyer to count its solutions, and then do the same for the third.


    The result was what felt like an overload of information. If not for Dream Sculpt to keep track of everything, Leonel would have long since been overwhelmed.


    However, what would happen if he ignored the firstyer and started with the others instead?


    ''Interesting. The secondyer still has hundreds of solutions, but it''s far less than the tens of thousands I already found for the firstyer. And, better yet, there is a hard cap.


    ''If I ignore the first twoyers and start with the third, there are just a few dozen solutions. And, once again, there''s a hard cap…''


    Leonel''s eyes glowed, calctions spinning about in his mind at an ungodly speed.


    ''There it is. The real solution.''


    Leonel''s eyes shed open, his Dream Force surging into the Memory Ore.Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
