Chapter 364: Katie's Worries
"This drunkard, why we're so worried!" Rebecca raised her fist in hatred, looking ready to punch the "wax figure" in the nose.
The snoring sounded proof that Alfie's inference was correct, and if Barnett had been turned into a wax figure, he would undoubtedly have lost his life and would not have snored anyway.
"Wait a minute, you rush up with such a punch, it won't be good if you really hurt Barnett inside. After all, we all know that wax figures are very fragile. Alfi didn't see Rebecca as a joke and was ready to come for real, so she hurriedly stopped.
"How can we get Mr. Barnett out of the wax figure intact?" asked Serent, thinking that Alfie must have a way to do so.
"That's for our little Katie. You did it on purpose, right?" Alfie asked with a straight face.
There is no doubt that one part of Oz can be controlled to return to the slime state, and the other part will remain in this waxy state, and only Oz's owner, Katie, can do this. Apparently this little guy who holds a grudge is taking the opportunity to take revenge on the old dwarf.
"People just want to take the opportunity to teach this old dwarf a lesson~" Katie said a little unreasonably, after all, the movement she just made was too big, and it invisibly delayed a lot of time.
"Why are you still stunned, why don't you let Barnett out quickly?" Coughren reminded in a whisper.
"Hmph, it's not a worry-free guy!" Rebecca said helplessly.
Soon, at Katie's command, the waxy substance hanging on the old dwarf's body also returned to the shape of a droplet-like slime, rolling down from the old dwarf's body, revealing the old dwarf hidden underneath.
Sure enough, just as Alfie had guessed, the old dwarf fell asleep in this state! It took a long time for Celent to wake the old dwarf from his sleep, and the first thing Barnett said with his drunken sleepy eyes almost made everyone faint: "What are you all doing around me? Do you know that I have had a terrible nightmare? Let me tell you, in my dream I saw a huge treasure slime, which is a treasure of great value......
"Katie, I suggest you seal this drunk in a wax figure again!" Alfie said viciously.
"Really, can I really do this?" said Katie, her eyes sparkling at the moment.
"Forget it, I'm kidding, you better hurry up and command Oz to get to work!" Alfie was really defeated by her, and said to herself helplessly, "There is no humor at all......"
"Let's get started, Oz!, just like we said before!" Katie ordered at the cloud of small slimes, like a general commanding thousands of troops.
With Katie's order, the little slimes stopped playing in an instant, and all the slimes suddenly stood still, and after a while, the droplet-shaped slimes were like melted candles, turning into liquid, spreading out on the ground like mercury, and fusing together, like a crystal clear "water film" covering the surface of the entire magic array in the blink of an eye.
Alfie noticed that under this layer of water, the water film on the surface of the original charged crystal covered with floating sand quickly turned pale yellow with a similar color to the floating sand, while the place without floating sand still maintained its original almost transparent white. Looking at the entire surface of the magic array from a distance, it now looks like a colorful canvas of yellow and white, which looks intoxicating.
The yellowed parts of the water film twisted slightly, as if something was wriggling underneath, and it seemed that Oz was faithfully carrying out Katie's orders, devouring the floating sand that covered the magic circle.
"If Barnett hadn't touched Oz just now, would it have had the same effect?" Rebecca asked curiously.
"Pretty much, if that were the case, Oz would turn into a liquid shape and flow around, and it should end up like this, but not as fast as it is now. Katie thought for a moment and replied.
"So we're a blessing in disguise because of Barnett's recklessness?" said Alfie with a sneer.
Barnett, who had taken a nap, was visibly awake at the moment, and was hiding behind Esbil with a face full of shame, not daring to face everyone—Silent had already quietly told him what he had just done.
"The same cannot be said. It may seem like we've saved some time, but in reality if we hadn't survived the explosion, it would have been all for nothing. Anyway, it was a very risky act, and something as unstable as this should not be used. Kauflon said, looking at Katie.
The young and ignorant Katie did not yet understand how dangerous her actions were, and that all their previous efforts might have been wiped out by her momentary rivalry.
"Don't people want to help?" Katie always felt that she was redundant in this team, in her opinion, everyone can find a suitable position in the team and play an important role, even the seemingly reckless Zambit can act as a scout, but Katie finds that she has almost no room to play, which makes the arrogant little animal tamer a little unacceptable, so she can't wait to jump out when there is finally a chance to perform.
"How so?" After Katie whispered her concerns, Celent comforted Katie softly, "In the battle with the human-faced spider Spadehl, your Vasp played a huge role." If it weren't for the successful sneak attack of Vasp that made Spadel lose his ability to fight, I'm afraid she wouldn't have calmly communicated with us and let us finally get through that level, right?"
"And Spadel's trust, that egg, we're counting on you. I had a hunch that the egg would play an extremely important role. Alfie added that he was annoyed and amused by Katie's thoughts.
It seems that their improvised team needs more team building, and I'm afraid no one noticed Katie's mood swings until this happened. Little Katie is like this, and others are probably like this, she has not found a clear position and a strong sense of belonging in the whole team, which is very dangerous, but it has not been exposed for the time being.
If we continue to ignore this point, we will be afraid that the consequences of such a contradiction will be unimaginable if it suddenly erupts when we encounter greater dangers and challenges in the future. Alfie blamed himself for a moment, he hadn't thought of this before, and looked at the whole adventure more from an individual point of view than from the perspective of a team.
He now found that although these people in the team came here for different purposes, the current situation had firmly tied them together, and it was impossible for any one person to get out of here safely. The three conditions mentioned by Coughren were actually very clear prompts, but unfortunately Alfie did not understand them so thoroughly at the time......
