Chapter 186 Reward
“Mr. Shaw, please calm down. They’re all special forces soldiers from Tigra. They don’t have any knowl
edge about Diatoran,” Taylor hastily explained.
If they angered him, they wouldn’t be able to crack the code. Therefore, for the sake of this, Taylor had
to show utmost respect to him.
Henry didn’t say much.
He knew that ordinary people wouldn’t understand the mysteries of the Cosmic Octagonal.
Nexus.
Hence, he used a flashlight to point out the corresponding constellations.
Under his command, the soldier began gradually shifting the eastern constellations.
The most unexpected thing happened! The constellations from the other three directions began to mov
e on their own!
This scene shocked everyone present. The wisdom of the ancient Diatorians was indeed
unfathomable.
However, after the movement of several constellations, the situation seemed to become even
more dangerous.
The situation with the Azure Dragon was already grim. If this continued, the situation was
bound to be lost!
As for Taylor, Bob, and the others, they simply couldn’t comprehend what was happening. They could Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
only silently pray that Henry could solve this puzzle.
However, they noticed Henry’s expression growing more solemn and sensed that the situation. was tur
ning dire.
At this point, Henry was sweating heavily. He had just taken five steps, yet the situation had already go
ne beyond his control!
Now, he could only take a risk!
He directed the soldier to move an important constellation, Starweave. It symbolized the Water Leopar
d. He hoped that this move would have an unexpected effect!
But surprisingly, right after the Starweave constellation moved, the southern Vermilion Bird constellatio
n suddenly shifted.
It defused the situation on this side!
However, the Starweave constellation was slowly eaten after that move!
Following that, a terrifying incident occurred!
Just as the Starweave constellation vanished in an instant, a crack appeared on the Cosmic Octagonal
Nexus disk.
Within it, a cold light flashed, and a long knife shimmered, coming straight through.
The soldier standing in front was immediately beheaded!
His blood splashed on the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk.
The sudden turn of events stunned everyone!
The cold light flashed and then receded into the disk!
Everything happened so fast that none of them were able to react.
With a thud, the soldier’s head rolled on the ground.
His arm remained in the position as before, and blood gushed from his neck!
Finally, his entire body collapsed backward.
All those who witnessed this gruesome scene were terrified.
Now, they finally realized the terror of this Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk.
Once the eastern Azure Dragon constellation was devoured, the one who deciphered it would. be killed
too!
Henry trembled in fear as he froze in place. Thankfully, he hadn’t moved the pieces himself. Otherwise,
he would have become a corpse by now.
The other soldiers felt fortunate they weren’t chosen. No one would have escaped such a
sudden accident.
In the next moment,
all the constellation pieces on the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk returned to their original positions.
Seeing this, everyone suddenly realized that the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk could be reset.
“Mr. Shaw, weren’t you confident that you could solve it? Why did you still fail?” Taylor asked disappoint
edly.
He thought Henry would be able to quickly decipher the puzzle.
“This Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk is quite peculiar. I was careless to think I could solve it immediately
. Let me think again!” Henry changed his tone and said.
“Are you sure you can do it? I lost a valuable soldier because of your carelessness!” Bob angrily questi
oned.
He handpicked each of his subordinates and trained them personally. Each of them was extensively tra
ined and capable of fighting any battle.
Losing even one was heartbreaking for Bob.
“If I can’t solve this puzzle, then no one can! Let me ponder it further.” Henry remained highly confident
in his abilities.
“Think carefully this time. Make sure you’re absolutely certain before making a move!” Taylor urged.
He was really eager to obtain the treasures behind the stone door.
Taylor wasn’t ready to give up as he had come this close to opening the door.
After investing so much time and effort, all he needed to do now was to open the stone door. Then, he
would be able to get the treasures.
Even
if he needed to sacrifice all these special forces soldiers, it would be worth it as long as he was able to
get the minerals and treasures.
“Alright, everyone quiet down. Let me think this through!” After finishing his words, Henry focused inten
sely on the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk and got lost in his thoughts.
The soldiers stood still, not daring to make a sound.
But deep inside, they were nervous as they feared that they might be called upon to move the pieces.
After some contemplation, Henry seemed to have understood his previous mistake and was preparing t
o make an improvement. This time, he needed to move the Starweave constellation earlier!
Dragon thrived in the water!
“I’ve figured it out! This time, I can surely unravel the puzzle!” Henry exclaimed and tapped his head in
excitement.
“Are you sure? Please don’t let the same thing happen again!” Bob expressed his concern.
He didn’t want to lose another subordinate.
He still needed to arrange for one of his soldiers to stand in front of the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk.
Without complete certainty, Bob wasn’t willing to risk his subordinates.
“Unraveling this kind of puzzle is critical at every step. A single move can alter the entire situation! This
time, I’m very confident!” Henry stated confidently.
“Then let’s act quickly,” Taylor urged anxiously.
Unlike Bob, Taylor wasn’t concerned about the lives of these special forces soldiers. He only wanted w

“I need a strong man like last time to follow my instructions and move the constellation pieces!” Henry s
aid.
Even
if he had the strength, he wouldn’t put himself at risk after knowing the danger of the Cosmic Octagonal
Nexus disk.
“Bob, you
know these soldiers better. You pick one,” Taylor suggested.
Bob felt somewhat helpless, but he had to comply.
“Any soldier willing to step up and complete this difficult task?” Bob glanced at the soldiers. and asked
unwillingly.
After the previous events, these soldiers were already somewhat afraid.
They were also worried that because of Henry’s mistake, they might lose their lives.
Seeing no response, Taylor immediately said, “Anyone who’s willing to step up and complete this task
will receive a reward of three million dollars!”
With such a generous offer, there were sure to be men who would step forward. Taylor didn’t hold back
as he was ready to spend.
He was sure that someone would risk their life for that amount of money.
Taylor was willing to spend some money as long as he could get the door open.
After all, the treasures inside were invaluable!
Three million dollars was not a small figure, and it was enough to pique the soldiers‘ interest.
“I’ll do it!” Sure enough, a burly soldier took a few steps forward.
The allure of money was irresistible to some.
“Alright! Once successful, I’ll immediately
give you three million dollars! Mr. Shaw, let’s get started!” Taylor said.
Then, Henry directed the soldier as before.
However, this time, he positioned himself a bit farther back.
He was afraid that he might get injured by the blade hidden behind the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk if
