If one block started at lower difficulty and has been solved after the difficulty change, will the difficulty count as the lower one or the higher one?
Say I started to mine a block at 100m diff on 8/10 and slove the block on 10/10 and by the time the diff is 200m at the time.  What is the diff I sloved? Is it toward the lower one or the higher one?

the solution needs to be better than the target, if the target changes so does the required solution (up or down).
It is a network wide thing, every time a block is found on the network everyone starts looking for the next one.(the block you start on probably wont be the one you solve)
