Chapter 406: Void Puzzle
Although he can understand this kind of puzzle solving, he still suffers from a lack of imagination.
No way, although the education of the army requires soldiers to be improvised, it is very tricky for things other than this cognition.
It was precisely because of this almost dogmatic way of command that Barrett tried everything he could think of, but to no avail.
It didn't work to put the torch back in his hand, and he tried to take the torch to another room, but he didn't find anything of note.
Trying to light extinguished candles and braziers with torches is useless.
He was depressed.
Standing in the last room, looking at the wooden boxes under the tattered arcade, Barrett was very depressed.
Originally, he was going to show it in front of the parents he met for the first time, so that they could be relieved that his child was a very capable person.
But now it's clear that he's done a bad job, and it's almost two hours since Barrett, who has tried almost everything, has done nothing.
"Well, if only Doroniel were here, that would be fine." That little man of ghosts and elves is definitely the master of imagination.
"Is it one of these two little girls? It's a shame that they're not really human anymore. Lily whispered again, not big or small, like the sound of a mother putting her baby to sleep.
"Ah, not really." Barrett shook his head and said, "She's my girlfriend in Frost, and these two are actually my comrades-in-arms." ”
"I see." Without further questioning, Lily fell silent again.
Still, Barrett closed his eyes and expanded his senses.
Everything around him came to mind.
The walls and the floor are real, and there is nothing wrong with them.
Most of the little things that dot are nothing, that is, they don't exist in perception at all.
Wait, one of the four chests on the other side isn't a product of nothingness?
Barrett realized that this should be the key.
Move it? Thinking of this, Barrett immediately did it, stood up and walked to the front of the box.
Reaching out and trying to move the wooden box, but the box, which didn't look heavy, seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
No, in fact, now that he weighs a thousand pounds, he can move.
But although the box in front of him could be touched by his hands, he did not move at all.
No matter how hard he exerted, he didn't even shake it.
What the hell is going on? What's wrong with that?
Barrett thought carefully about everything that had happened before, and entered the room, where he learned that something was nothing, and that he was looking for the key.
Then he pulled out the torch from the wall, only to realize that some things were not all nothing.
Torch? That's right!
Turning back to pick up the extinguished torch on the ground, Barrett brought it directly close to the wooden box.
Although the flames were not vigorous, the moment the red flames touched the wooden box, the entire wooden box burned violently.
The faint blue light of the fire didn't look like a torch in his hand.
The dark blue flames burned brighter and brighter, and gradually ignited all the wooden boxes.
Barrett is surprised to find that all of these wooden boxes, which had been empty, have become perceptible entities.
"That's it!" Excitedly waving his fist in celebration, Barrett found that the torch in his hand had been extinguished.
At the moment when the last trace of spark disappeared, the originally burning wooden crate disappeared at once.
There is no obstacle in front of the dilapidated arcade, and it is passable.
The next step is to find the key.
Barrett stepped out of the arcade and came to a place that resembled a small village.
It is two or three times larger than before, and there are about a dozen small wooden houses scattered together to form a small village.
Because of his previous experience, Barrett did not rush forward, but stood still and began to perceive.
As he expected, not only things, but even houses, there are several rooms that are completely non-existent.
But soon he realized that it was not good.
for something was coming towards him.
Enemies? Barrett opened his eyes in alarm.
Perception can't find an enemy, then this kind of enemy should also be a beast that has been transformed by transformation tools.
The sense of crisis allowed him to quickly locate the enemy's position, between the third and fourth houses.
His eyes scanned around, and Barrett kept an eye in that direction as he looked around for weapons he could use.
A log with a small arm that looks like wood that has not been split.
A mess of rocks, with a few weeds in betweed.
These things are useless! Barrett, who had a lot of experience in fighting, knew that these things were completely useless against ferocious beasts.
There must be a stronger weapon, or............
His eyes gradually condensed, Barrett gradually lowered his body, and he decided to try what kind of combat power the strengthened body had.
It's not stupid, when your weapon is very low, using it will only weigh you down.
On the contrary, the guy who is not easy is not as useful as his hands and feet.
The solid back gradually tightened, and the feet were firmly pressed on the ground.
Gradually, he already sensed that the guy was coming out.
I saw a beast with sharp claws stepping out.
This guy is very burly, just by looking at this beast's claws.
The claws of a beast the size of a car are really strange if its owner can be small.
Strike first!
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Barrett rushed out.
The huge size of this beast also means that it has very terrifying powers.
Defeating such a thing by brute force alone is very mysterious......
So taking the initiative and taking the initiative has become a crucial thing.
In a few leaps, Barrett's speed increased to a very fast speed, and the beast didn't react yet.
A heavy kick on the jaw of the beast that had just poked out of the corner of the wall, and a small smile appeared on Barrett's face.
I didn't expect it to be so easy!
But less than a second later, he realized that something was wrong, the beast didn't even have a few long hairs on its face.
At least a few hundred kilograms of strength did not even attract the attention of the beast.
The beast's red gaze looked into the distance and continued to walk forward.
The huge claws just faintly grazed Barrett's side and kicked him more than ten meters away!
"Ahem...... Groove ...... So ferocious! Barrett staggered a few steps to steady himself.
The giant beast walked over to where he had stood, looking around for something.
What are you looking for? Barrett found out that there was something wrong with this guy, and it wasn't through sight.
Examining the beast closely, Barrett finally realized what this guy was.
Huge hairy tails, white hair, scarlet eyes......
This thing is a giant cat!
It's just that its size can't be matched even by 10,000 cats combined.
"............" looked closely for a while, and he noticed that the big guy was circling in the open space where he came, and his huge claws slapped on the ground with a loud noise.
"I'm here looking for something, and I can't afford to play with it." Barrett measured the curve of combat effectiveness and found that even if he tried his best, that guy might not be able to feel it, so what kind of energy did he play?
Quietly approaching the village, he simply let this guy go and ignore it.
The wooden houses are very simple, and even the half-split log walls can be seen in the light from outside.
The house was a mess, littered with rags and garbage.
Discarded bamboo baskets, crocky dishes, and even beds are just a pile of straw piled up in the corner of the room.
There was nothing useful, and there was not even a trace of metal in the whole room, how could it be possible to find the key?
However, this is different from the previous room, the rooms that come out of here are nothing, and everything in these rooms that does exist is corporeal.
In about half an hour, he went around all the rooms.
The big creature was still circling in the clearing, only this time it began to sweep the ground with its claws, apparently looking for enemies hiding on the ground.
The solid ground has been carved out of trenches more than half a meter deep, making the clearing look a mess.
There was no place to look, and Barrett tried to think as he watched the beast's movements.
According to the pattern just above, you need to look for the main points in the things that have the substance.
But now it's obviously not as obvious as it used to be, and the point is hidden in these things.
What's different here from just now??
Barrett could hear smoke coming out of his head because it was overloaded.
The difference is the big guy outside!
Barrett carefully searched for something in it.
............ the hell is it What's on its back!
He really found it, but this key point is very ............ Tough.
Because the only thing that is different is that there is something behind it that is reflecting light.
Weapons? It seems that something is behind it, it must be the one!
Barrett bit his nails in embarrassment, this big guy's temper is getting bigger and bigger, just now he was digging in circles, and now he is jumping around irritablely.
The huge weight fell on the ground, causing gusts of earthquakes.
This one in the state allows him to climb onto its back? Is it okay to be trampled into a pie in minutes?
But no, God knows when this thing will be quiet, at least not at all.
Its movements became more and more intense, and several times it almost collapsed the outermost wooden house, and Barrett thought of a countermeasure.
How do I approach it? Not to mention that its speed is very fast now, even if it can catch up, how can he go up? From the tail?
The gigantic cat also has several huge furry tails, but the tail that is about to catch up with the thickness of the body waving behind him, and the smoke and marks produced when whipping on the ground are enough to chill his heart.
Barrett thought he couldn't stand it.
The kick just now was just a simple walk, and it kicked him to bleed internally, if this is honest............
Asunder? Even if it's not so ruthless, it's not much worse.
He doesn't have any tools in his body right now.
Seeing that it was jumping more and more violently, and the expression on his head was getting more and more hideous, Barrett knew that waiting would only get worse and worse.
After a few glances across the field, Barrett finally found a little possibility.
Seeing the opportunity, he pushed open the door and rushed out, and he went straight to the empty field.
The huge cat leapt to its feet and slammed into the arcade from which he had come.
Barrett, on the other hand, did not have time to think about those, he rushed to ...... The trenches dug in the ground ran away.
I saw him lying on his back in the deepest trench.
The cat's next action is to jump over like this, but the landing point is not right, and it is a little off.
The dust that was kicked up covered his face, and he made a desert camouflage with sweat.
The last time something like this happened was in the woods of Savidiana.
The sheer weight was as if a bomb had exploded not far from him.
Holding his breath, Barrett didn't dare to move.
After a few jumps in a row, it finally landed on the groove where Barrett was hiding.
The huge black shadow in front of him was very oppressive, and even he had to close his eyes.
He could even feel the long hairs touching his face.
But fortunately, it still held back its weight.
As it jumped again, it didn't notice that Barrett had grabbed the hair on its leg and was trying to climb up.
Wheezing fiercely, he said that he was not afraid of pure deception.
Especially when I see that I am about to complete my goal, wouldn't I lose to my grandmother's house if I die??
Although he was just out of danger, Barrett soon found that it was going to be bad.
Because this time, the huge cat finally slammed into the cabin, and the side that landed was the direction where Barrett was!
"To die! Die! Die! The pale-faced Barrett climbed with both hands and feet, and the cabin couldn't do anything to him, but you must know that it is a mountain that carries you!
The body of more than ten meters is pressed on you, even if you drive a miniature mecha, it will be an end.
Click!
Tong............
The fragile hut fell apart and collapsed entirely............
And the huge cat finally stopped its tossing body.
On its back, Barrett was panting with a glittering greatsword.
"My mother...... You're really, really looking for something for me......" Resting on the cat's furry back, Barrett felt like he had to get some rest.
It's just that the giant beast didn't give him much time to rest.
I saw it stand up with its huge body, and then shake Barrett off like a louse.
Barrett, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't react at all, and was shaken to the ground.
Perhaps regaining his senses, the giant beast actually grabbed Barrett directly with its front paws.
Really grabbing, it grabbed Barrett by the collar with its sharp nails and lifted him up.
As if it had seen something it didn't like, it snorted at him with a big puff of air.
The gas with an unknown liquid poured him in the face.
"I'll go, what are you?" Of course, he couldn't sit still, and Barrett had a flash of inspiration and swung the greatsword in his hand, trying to get it to let go of its claws.
only to find ............ His sword was blocked, and the huge cat, like a human, blocked his attack with its other paw.
The cat's nose twitched, and it threw him out with an unhappy expression, perhaps in retaliation for trying to attack it.
Its power was so great that Barrett, who was flying in mid-air at a terrifying speed, didn't have time to think too much before he plunged into the water......
