"The one destined to obtain it? Charlotte, it seems you guessed right," Lin Tian smiled slightly.

"We always need a plausible reason, and setting a challenge helps stir people’s enthusiasm," Charlotte, who saw through the scheme, said nonchalantly.

Sure enough, quite a few people were getting excited, eager to try their luck.

"Count Carlos, may I ask a question? You mentioned that the Eye of the Creator is hidden somewhere, but that’s quite vague, isn’t it? We need a defined area. Otherwise, even if we mobilize everyone in the world, we wouldn’t find it, given how small the gemstone is," someone below inquired.

This question resonated with many, including Lin Tian, who also wanted to know. If the old man hid the gemstone in England, it would truly be impossible to find in a lifetime. Of course, Lin Tian believed that since the old Earl intended to give it away, he wouldn’t make it too difficult.

Sure enough, the old Earl calmly replied, "Within a one-hundred-kilometer radius of the manor, and to reduce the difficulty, you can enlist help, but the number of helpers is limited to ten."

"One hundred kilometers is a large area; even if thousands of people were dispatched, they wouldn’t create a ripple," someone said in frustration.

"Count Carlos, with such a large area, what if no one finds it in the end? How would you solve that?" Another person questioned. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

With a smile still on his face, the old Earl answered, "Every ten hours, I will provide a hint, and with your wisdom and a little luck, you should be able to find the Eye of the Creator."

"What’s today’s hint?" someone immediately asked below.

"Ah, sir, you should listen carefully; I already gave the first hint just now," the old Earl chuckled slyly, like a cunning old fox.

Already gave the hint? Many were stunned, and soon, some began to realize.

"So the one-hundred-kilometer radius is the hint, that’s quite tricky," Zhou Botong complained unhappily.

"Come on, it’s a rare treasure after all, it won’t be so easy to find," Lin Tian patted him on the shoulder, taking it easy.

In fact, the allowance of ten people to help doesn’t really make much of a difference. A one-hundred-kilometer radius is too vast; hidden in any nook, it might never be found even in a hundred years.

Lin Tian’s super vision can’t reach a hundred kilometers, and even if it could, scanning such a vast area inch by inch is impossible; the brain couldn’t handle the data volume.

Unless one possessed the legendary Buddha’s power, capable of observing the Three Worlds with a glance. Of course, with such power, the mere Eye of the Creator would mean nothing.

Some were delighted, others worried. People whispered, discussing strategies. Some had already begun taking action, while others, uninterested, continued to admire the exhibition’s jewelry. After all, not everyone is fond of black diamonds; the Eye of the Creator after all is a black diamond.

"Oh, by the way, everyone can ask me one question. You can wait until the next hint inspires you to ask, or ask now. But you cannot directly ask about the gemstone’s location. Well then, good luck to all of you," the old Earl suddenly said, then opened his arms, warmly congratulating everyone.

"We can ask a question? It seems the old Earl doesn’t want to make it too tough for us," Zhou Botong laughed.

"Let’s go ask now; maybe we’ll get a hint," Ou Mengmeng rushed over eagerly.

Lin Tian quickly signaled Xiao Manxuan to stop her, and Ou Mengmeng hurriedly said, "Lin Tian, why won’t you let me go? If I delay, someone else might find it first. Look, people are already asking questions."

Although Xiao Manxuan stopped her as per Lin Tian’s signal, she couldn’t understand his reasoning and looked towards Lin Tian, as did the others.

"This is the puzzle posed by the old Earl. Everyone has only one chance to ask a question. Asking too early without the subsequent hints might yield useless information, but if you wait for the hints to ask, you might miss your chance. Are you sure you’ve thought of a good question to ask?"

Lin Tian glanced around at them, countering their looks with a question.

"I..." Ou Mengmeng wanted to say something, but upon reflection, realized her questions seemed unimportant.

The others also racked their brains, but couldn’t think of good questions immediately. Any questions about the gemstone’s location would not be answered by the old Earl, and asking irrelevant questions would waste the single opportunity.

"So, Mr. Lin, have you thought of a good strategy?" Charlotte, looking earnestly curious, almost called out "master" before quickly correcting herself.

It’s worth noting, the surrounding gentlemen were unintentionally drawn closer, captivated by this peerless beauty. If she had called Lin Tian "master" there, the scene would surely have been spectacular.

"No rush, let others ask first. When there are fewer people, we can decide. Let’s go look at the other gemstones; many here are more famous than the Eye of the Creator," Lin Tian remained calm, offering no explanation.

"Xuanxuan, let’s go see the jewelry. I’m not interested in black diamonds; I’m just doing this for fun. Let Lin Tian use his brain to find it," Ou Mengmeng suggested, pulling Xiao Manxuan along to explore other precious stones on display, which are rarely seen.

"Mr. Qi, you all go have fun too," Lin Tian noted that Mr. Qi’s interest was also elsewhere and waved them off. Soon, only Lin Tian and Charlotte were left.

After everyone left, Charlotte leaned in closer to Lin Tian, whispering in his ear, "Master, someone has been watching us."

The Princess’s words, along with her warm breath tickling Lin Tian’s ear, sent a shiver down his spine. This woman, even in public, can’t resist flirting. Are you trying to embarrass me? Someday, I’ll put you in your place, Lin Tian thought fiercely.

However, their intimate posture left the surrounding men heartbroken, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy. On the stage, Miss saw Lin Tian and Charlotte’s closeness, gnashing her teeth in anger, almost ready to storm down and confront Lin Tian.

In fact, Miss also surpassed the other ladies in both looks and figure within the exhibition hall, on par with Charlotte. But Miss was slightly more naive, unlike Charlotte, who employed her Bewitching Technique, exuding a noble yet dangerously seductive charm, which was even more alluring to men.

"Master, I saw that person yesterday; he’s quite skilled. Be cautious," Charlotte whispered, leaning in again.

Lin Tian didn’t need to turn his head; he knew it was Xu Feibai. Xu Feibai, of course, is an expert.

In the corner, Xu Feibai was accompanied only by Yasuo, with the other young man nowhere in sight. Yasuo was also dressed formally, and no one knew he was a Secret Master.

"Master, it seems Lin Tian has noticed us," Yasuo whispered softly.
