Chapter 279: The Disappearance of the Colossus (Ai)
"Deal!" Alfie gritted her teeth and agreed to Rebecca's request.
Rebecca knows how to handle people's hearts, and although her request is difficult, it is insignificant compared to the huge value of the space stone basin and the phoenix mary. Her request just stepped on the edge of Alfie's bottom line, so he had to pinch his nose and agree to her request.
"Clever!" Rebecca said with a meaningful look at Alfie. After this period of getting along, the two smart people have been able to accurately grasp each other's psychology, which has always been in a delicate balance in the process of their cooperation.
"Mr. Barnett, can you elaborate on how you got through here in the first place?" After dividing the spoils, Alfie returned to focusing on how to get through. If they can't pass this level perfectly, everything they have just done is useless.
"Ahem, there's another mystery underneath this pool. This spatial stone basin seems to be an important item to break the barrier underneath......" Barnett said after unconsciously moving away from Alfie, who was holding the spatial stone basin.
"So when Celent dived underwater, I don't know how to use this spatial stone basin to create a waterspout, and then open the passage to the next level. He and Leni moved on to the next level, leaving you outside?" Alfie asked thoughtfully.
"That's it. Barnett replied without hesitation.
"Then how do you conclude that the method used by Sellant is incorrect? Although there was a slight accident, didn't your purpose also be achieved?" Alfie asked suspiciously, he had every reason to believe that Barnett knew something, after all, he had been involved in almost every level here.
"If he had done it right, this space stone basin and the phoenix in it wouldn't have cheapened you, would it?" Barnett said with drunken eyes.
"So did Mr. Kenobi mention what was the key to passing this level?" asked Alfie, in hot pursuit. In his opinion, it would be foolish not to take advantage of Barnett, who is in the know.
Barnett took a sip of wine, glanced at Alfie with disdain, and said, "What do you want? Didn't I tell you? Although the design of the entire level was completed by Mr. Kenobi, after being combined with the castle core, it will automatically change according to the situation here, and become the most suitable form for the environment here. In Mr. Kenobi's design, there is no space for stone basins, anmary, and waterholes. All I can tell you is that formally this is one of the levels designed by Kenobi-sensei, but the changes that occur in it are beyond my control. Remember that you can only take these rewards if you find a perfect way to get through them, otherwise you'll lose it at the last minute like the Serent and the others. ”
"In that case, I'm afraid it will be nerve-wracking. Alfie circled the waterhole a few times with the spatial stone basin, looking up at the environment around the cave from time to time, and then at Stonehenge around the waterhole, muttering something.
"Barnett, do you think Alfie can find the right way?" Rebecca didn't want to help, but as soon as she used her brain, she would experience a feeling of dizziness accompanied by a headache, and there was no doubt that the memory seal that had plagued her was still working.
"I'm not sure. Judging by the intelligence he displayed, I don't know of anyone else who is smarter and more perceptive than Mr. Kenobi. So it should still be promising, right?" Unlike Alfie, Barnett has enough respect for Rebecca. At least when talking to Rebecca, he definitely doesn't drink.
"Do you really think of him, and even compare him to Kenobi, are they comparable?" When it comes to Kenobi, Rebecca is a little uneasy.
"Of course, of course, he is still far from Mr. Kenobi. Barnett smirked. In his mind, Kenobi was equally unattainable.
"But apart from Kenobi, he's a genius. Rebecca said with a complicated expression. She herself admits that it is very unfair to compare Alfie to Kenobi.
"Zambit, why don't you go into the water and take a look?" Alfie asked in a loud voice after a few laps.
"Isn't that good?" Zambit said, a look of hesitation.
"Why? Could it be that the great Troll Warrior doesn't know water?" Elfie raised an eyebrow.
"Cut~ How is it possible?" Zambit straightened his chest, but after holding on for less than two seconds, his face collapsed: "But isn't that magic colossus still in the pool?
Alfie finally understood why Zambit hesitated. It seems that although the Colossus of Magic Energy only fired two magic cannonballs just now, it also caused a lot of psychological pressure on Zambit, otherwise how could the great troll warrior be timid?
"Don't worry, that Colossus of Magical Energy is definitely not in there!" Alfie said firmly.
This time it was Zambit's turn to despise him: "You're so sure? How could such a big guy say no, it's gone?" Zambit asked, squinting his eyes.
"Like you said, it's impossible for such a huge creature to sink into a pool with only such a small amount of water!" Alfie said eloquently, pointing to the pool of water that had not overflowed much.
"Cut~ Who believes it!" Zambit stood on the edge of the waterhole and looked down, it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see anything, which made him even more bottomless. He always felt that the huge eyes of the Colossus of Magic were peering at him in the waterhole.
"Hehe, you don't want to think about it, if the Colossus of Magic Energy was still in the waterhole, it should have come out for so long, and it would be absolutely fine to fire at least a few more magic cannonballs to attack. ”
"What do you mean......" Zambit wasn't stupid, and when Alfie reminded him, he realized that the Colossus was too quiet, and it was too disproportionate to the pressure it was putting on them.
"Somebody must have taken it away. Alfie said regretfully: "I originally wanted to take this opportunity to find its weaknesses, but now I don't have a chance." The next time we meet it, it's going to be a tough battle. ”
"Are you so sure?" Alfie's performance was too confident, and although Zambit agreed with him, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Quite simply, there is certainly not as much harmony in this castle as we thought, some people want to kill us, and some people want to take advantage of us. The sudden appearance of the Colossus of Magical Energy is the best example of this. Apparently someone released it out to deal with us, and Barnett didn't meet them at the beginning. - Isn't that right, Barnett?" After receiving Barnett's affirmative reply, Alfie continued to analyze, "Then now that the Colossus of Magic has suddenly disappeared, there is only one explanation, someone has taken it away. I guess you wouldn't be arrogant enough to think that the Colossus of Magic was damaged by you kicking it into a pool, right?"
"It makes a lot of sense, but do you think I'll still believe you?" Zambit made up his mind this time not to be fooled.
"So you're going to sit on the sidelines?" Alfie narrowed dangerously.
"Anyway, I won't go into the water if I kill me this time!" Zambit said, sneering his neck.
"Don't regret it then~" Alfi was stunned for a moment, then put his hand into the pool to test the water temperature.
Alfie was not as angry as he expected about Zambit's boycott, but changed to a mocking tone, which made Zambit even more unclear what the hell this guy was up to.
