Chapter 1109: A Flaw in the Rules (2)
"How can you keep yourself out of the situation, if the disaster that engulfs the entire continent breaks out, even if you hide in this exclusive reading room, you will definitely not be spared!" Larquit said in a hurry when he saw that Alfie seemed indifferent.
"It seems like I'm going to worry more about how to survive in this exclusive reading room. Alfie replied with a blank face, as if unaware of Larquite's eagerness to reveal some important information. He had just secretly tried it and found that he couldn't use the Space Ring here, which meant that he could only hold on here for seven days at most, and he would starve to death.
"Trade, of course, as long as the deal is done, the rules here will no longer have any restrictions on you. Larquette reminded.
"But I don't want to trade my life for anything. Alfie replied slowly, "Mr. Larquet, I don't believe that everyone who entered before made a deal with you with their lives. ”
"What's the basis for that?" asked Larquet, forced to his composure.
"Quite simply, if I had been less greedy and had only taken three tomes from here, that transaction would not have happened at all. I don't believe that there is such an obvious flaw that no one has noticed before. Alfie said with a sneer.
"Not everyone is free of greed. Even you may not be able to resist certain temptations. Larquette said firmly, insisting that Alfie was so calm at the moment because he had not yet found a book that would appeal to Alfie.
"I certainly don't deny it, and in fact my greed is probably no less than Kenobi's. I'm going to carefully select the three books that belong to me first. Given the volume of books in this reading room, it was obviously not something that could be done in a day or two, so I was thinking about how to survive in this exclusive reading room first. "Alfie made no secret of her ambitions.
Since Kenobi was able to take advantage of the loopholes in the rules here and gain the foundation for his future foothold on the mainland, Alfie believed that he would be able to do the same. But before that, he had to use the opportunity to choose three tomes to his advantage, and first get his hands on the tome that would remove the petrification of Coughlon. Alfie is 80% sure that she will be able to get something out of this exclusive reading room.
"If you don't plan to trade for a long time, I suggest you move faster. There is absolutely no food or water for you to survive except for the air. Larquit said angrily when he saw that Alfie never took the bait.
"One thing I found strange. Alfi looked at Larquette and asked, "You can force me to trade with you with your lifespan, even if your strength has decreased a lot, but you are much stronger than me, and force coercion is not without effect on me." ”
After listening to Alfie's question, Ralquet's face suddenly turned bright, and he wanted to tell Alfie that he had done this before, especially when he first became the administrator here, and the several sanctuaries he had entered before were forced to hand over part of their lifespans under the coercion of his force.
However, when he met Kenobi, his coercion of the goblin, who was powerless at the time, not only did not have any effect, but instead made him fall into the trap of the other party, suffered heavy losses, not only greatly regressed in strength, but also seriously lacked energy to even maintain the most basic ghost state.
That incident had cast a huge shadow on Larquit, and now he didn't want to coerce Alfi with force, but he was in a terrible state, and if he failed like that time, he would probably be completely drained of what little energy he had left, and Larquit didn't have the courage to take such a risk.
If he spares a little, even if he doesn't trade life from Alfie this time, he should barely have enough energy left to last until the next lucky one appears. It is this last hope that causes Larquet to become a loser now.
In fact, this is not to blame Larquet, everyone generally does not have the courage to make a last-ditch fight until they are forced to the edge of the cliff where there is no way back. If Larquet had to get a lifespan from Alfie to continue his life now, he would definitely not hesitate to coerce him by force, but unfortunately things did not reach that irreparable situation, so he couldn't give up.
As for the ability to directly deprive others of their lives like the Demon Notes, it didn't exist for Larquet, otherwise he wouldn't have to live in such trepidation at all.
Of course, it was impossible for Larquette to tell Alfie all this, he could only emphasize with a dark face: "I am a principled person, I will only follow the rules, if you can really resist the temptation and insist on trading without life, I will respect your choice." ”
"You are truly one of the few magic giants who have established the Academy of Magic, and I admire you for your spirit of abiding by the rules!" Alfie immediately put a top hat on Larquit without hesitation.
He fully understands Larquet's previous temptation to trade with his lifespan, and he may have gone even further than Larquet.
"Hurry up and pick. You know for yourself that you don't have that much time. Larquit waved his hand, even though he was the owner of this exclusive reading room, there were some things he couldn't change, such as using space equipment, such as providing water and food for survival.
"Of course. But you don't have to worry about me at all, I've figured out a solution. Alfie smiled slyly at Larquet.
"What's your idea?" asked Larquet, wary. The last person to say something similar was Kenobi, and the lesson was enough for him to remember for the rest of his life.
"I wonder if you know about the 'suspended animation' status?" Alfie asked.
"Isn't it just to minimize all bodily functions, so as to greatly reduce the consumption of energy? This state is not uncommon during the Great War of Ten Thousand Races, and many seriously injured and endangered Sacred Realm powerhouses will let themselves enter this state, hoping to be rescued by others. Of course, this hope is very slim, so it does not work well. Larquette scoffed.
In history, those Sacred Domain powerhouses who entered this state often did not wait for the help of their friends in the end, but were found by their opponents and became real dead people, and there are many examples of no one waiting in the end, or dying of exhaustion of energy, so "fake death" is known as the most stubborn skill during the War of All Races.
"Yes, in order to survive here longer, I decided to get into this state. Alfie said confidently.
"Are you kidding? When you enter that state, not only will you lose all mobility, but your consciousness will also go into a long sleep, how will you choose those three books?" asked Larquit curiously.
"Rest assured, you're in control. Alfie smiled mysteriously, he had everything planned in his mind.
