Chapter 378: Meat Shield Tactics

"Alfie, are you crazy?" asked Sellant, shocked. Alfie didn't know where to get that great strength, and Rebecca was thrown like a decoy by him in the direction of the magic cannonball.

"Of course I'm not crazy, it's the easiest solution. Alfi stared at the trajectory of those magic cannonballs with a little nervousness, and said calmly.

"What?" Celent couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and Rebecca, who was ruthlessly thrown by Alfie, was about to come into close contact with those magic cannonballs.

At this moment, a loud mechanical voice came from the direction of the Magic Colossus: "Warning! Warning! Wrong target found! Stop attacking! Stop attacking! Too fast! Can't stop! Detonate on the spot! Execute immediately!"

With the sound of the Colossus of Magical Energy, the fourteen magic cannonballs that were about to hit Rebecca suddenly exploded violently, and they were reduced to nothing before they could hit Rebecca.

Rao was so, under the impact of the violent air currents generated by the explosion, Rebecca was blown several somersaults before stopping in embarrassment.

"Master!" Barnett glanced at Rebecca, who was covered in dust, and glared at Alfie, "This is the easiest way you said?"

"Isn't it? We have nothing to lose except for Rebecca, who was a little frightened. Alfie shrugged her shoulders and said indifferently.

"Elfie, don't you think this way will make everyone a little uncomfortable?" asked Selent.

"So what do you think you should do? Not all of them are as safe as you are from the magic cannonballs. Alfie sneered.

Celent had indeed erected the sacred barrier just now, and Lenny had silently erected a wall of wind, under these two layers of protection, I believe that it should be safe to receive the attack of the fourteen magic cannonballs. But if a magic cannonball passes through these two layers of protection, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Tell me how you figured Rebecca could act as this, uh, meat shield. Kauflon asked after stopping the others who were about to speak.

"It's simple, quantity. Alfie gestured to everyone, "There are eight of us here, and the magic cannonballs are fourteen, according to our experience, each person should have two magic cannonballs to entertain." So one of us is not the target of the Colossus, so who do you think is the most likely?"

Elfie's words made everyone suddenly realize, and everyone present believed that if there was one person who was not the target of the Colossus, then that person could only be Rebecca, the lover of Kenobi, the creator of the entire system—of course, Leni still didn't know the relationship between Rebecca and Kenobi, but one thing was for sure, she was definitely not the exception, and it didn't matter to her who that person was.

This was indeed proven, and when the Colossus found out that Rebecca had been thrown to act as a meat shield, it had to detonate the fourteen magic cannonballs herself.

"So you're using the old lady as a meat shield?" Rebecca asked angrily.

"Is there a loss to you? No. That's why I said it was the easiest way to do it. Alfie had taken Coughren's three pieces of advice to heart, and it seems that this is the least costly way to deal with it.

"And what about next time? Do you plan to use me as a meat shield next time you attack?" Rebecca's eyes narrowed dangerously, and as Elfie spoke, she didn't mind letting the bard be the first to comprehend her restored magical abilities.

"I don't think there's a next time. When it is discovered that we will use the Meat Shield tactic, the Colossus will not attack again until it has calculated the correct attack pattern without harming Rebecca. I guess Rebecca's security level should have been set to the highest by Mr. Kenobi. Alfie complimented Kenobi without a trace, which made Rebecca's anger invisibly reduce a lot.

"What if the Colossus of Demonic Energy calculates the right attack pattern?" Zambit asked, disbelieving.

"You underestimate Mr. Kenobi too much, since there is a loophole in the system, it will definitely find a way to make up for it, if the defensive heart can't think of a way to make up for the loophole before the magic colossus calculates the correct attack pattern, hehe~" Alfie didn't continue, but his meaning was obvious, it was impossible. After all, the Colossus of Magical Energy is only one part of the Heart of Defense system.

"I think you must be wrong this time. Zambit gloated a little, as he saw that the colossus of magic in the distance seemed to be beginning to change shape, slowly changing from a huge mechanical golem to a fixed turret.

Alfie glanced at the ever-changing Colossus of Magical Energy, and said helplessly: "Great Troll Warrior, you really should review your crow's mouth, do you think that after the transformation of the Colossus of Magical Energy is completed, it is still possible for us to survive its attack?"

"Absolutely. Don't forget that there is a Sanctuary powerhouse on our side~" Zambit proudly pointed to Leni, who was on guard. Zambit has every reason to be proud, and it was one of the few moments in which he has gained the upper hand in a clash with Alfie.

"Zambit, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I'm not sure I'm going to keep you safe under the attack of the transformed Colossus. Lennie's solemn words made the originally triumphant Zambit stuck there as if he had been poured a basin of cold water on his head.

"Y-What are you talking about, can't you do it with the strength of your Sanctuary?" Zambit asked in disbelief.

"It's a pity that my realm is not stable at the moment, and I haven't fully formulated the rules that suit me, so ......" Leni was originally forced out of the customs this time to save Celent and the others, and her own rules of the Sanctuary were not formulated at all, so she was not able to exert the strength of the Sanctuary at present. On the other side, the Colossus of Magical Energy is clearly changing to an attack mode, and it is foreseeable how terrifying the attacks will be when it completely transforms into attack mode.

"You're not kidding, are you!" Zambit was shocked, and after seeing Leni shake his head, he had to look at Rebecca for help, "Rebecca, can you still act as a meat shield again?"

"I'm afraid not this time. Now that the Colossus of Magical Energy has begun to shift to attack mode, it means that it has decided that I am not the one who needs to be safe. "Rebecca is feeling so bad right now, she has no idea what the Magic Colossus is based on.

"Alfie, what do you think you should do?" Zambit had to ask for help from his nemesis in pity.

"Look at the guys behind you, their response is the right thing to do right now. Alfie tilted her head back.

Zambit then noticed that while he was arguing with Alfie, Selent, Coughlon, Barnett, and Katie Jr. had built a defensive formation in the best way they could think of.
