Chapter 1050 1048 Blind Eye (14)

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1048: Blind Eye (14) Chapter 1050: Chapter 1048: Blind Eye (14) Conclusion One, Shi Gaozhi had already mocked her.

Conclusion Two, Charlotte had not become immune as a result; her stress level had instead increased.

After a deadly retort, watching Charlotte, who appeared even more distorted than the first time, Fu Qian silently came to a conclusion.

Unfortunately, I am now the last one to “hand in the paper,” truly “not knowing the taste.”

“Left hand, I’m curious about the kind of puzzle you encountered that required such a long time.”

Staring intently at this side, Charlotte’s complexion visibly shifted from red to Qing, but ultimately she didn’t explode. Instead, she chose to point out weaknesses, focusing on Fu Qian’s delaying behavior.

Waiting for this very sentence.

Fu Qian frowned, as if remembering something, and turned to look at Sage Old Master.

“Sage… could there be puzzles that are completely incomprehensible?”

Completely incomprehensible?

This question seemed to take the always observant Sage by surprise. For a moment, the Golden Staff with Wings rotated, and he did not rush to answer.

“What do you mean? You can’t understand how you came up with the answer?”

The ignored Charlotte, with barely contained rage, clearly did not want to let Fu Qian make light of the matter.

“Tested it out.”

Faced with the question, Fu Qian’s response was serious and straightforward.

“Only questions that can be understood have binding power. Theoretically, the situation you describe shouldn’t exist. Describe the problem you encountered.”

Now that his observations were complete, Sage Old Master, having confirmed Fu Qian hadn’t lost his mind, finally spoke.

“Indescribable.”

Fu Qian shook his head; his response was still straightforward.

“It was unlike any puzzle I knew before, akin to ‘knowledge’ beyond understanding.”

“In desperation, I cut my own hand and performed a ritual-like action to barely solve the puzzle.”

Honestly, this answer wasn’t very convincing, but Fu Qian wasn’t trying to convince anyone.

…

“You should come up with a better reason.”

Now, facing Fu Qian’s half-true, half-false answer, the first to question him wasn’t Charlotte, but his uneasy ally, Shi Gaozhi.

“As a puzzle-solving expert, how could Charlotte believe such a boring explanation?”

Unfortunately, to the seemingly supportive comment, Charlotte looked even more displeased.

In the end, he scoffed and disdainfully said no more.

Indescribable…

Sage Old Master’s expression revealed nothing, but he probably didn’t believe Fu Qian’s answer much either.

It didn’t matter; the purpose was only to convey the possibility of “knowledge beyond the curriculum” to the old master, a slight doubt was enough.

Too much stimulation could make the very cautious Sage overly cautious, potentially hindering actions.

“The more you know, the more you find ignorance, which is not surprising.”

Proving that a proper approach had been taken, Sage Old Master’s initiative was maximized accordingly.

In the slightly odd atmosphere, he chose to use the language of a charlatan to steady the troops.

After the vague statements, he even took the time to commend Fu Qian’s performance.

“Well done! Although it was luck, your calmness and determination to stay until the end are important virtues in the pursuit of knowledge.”

“Of course, you will need to perform even better next.”

His hand holding the Golden Staff pointed towards the exit.

“Our journey is still long.”

“Of course.”

Nodding in agreement, Fu Qian also sensed the slight doubt in Sage Old Master.

It wasn’t strange; it’s human instinct to understand the world within one’s cognitive range.

Rather than accepting that there might be things beyond understanding in the learned ruins, suspecting oneself first is the most normal reaction.

“The Holy Grail is the sole purpose of my journey.”

With this realization, Fu Qian used a sigh and a fervent gaze to solidify this suspicion in the Sage Old Master.

…

In Fu Qian’s estimation, the team might be well-prepared, but within the current framework, they likely wouldn’t be a match for the Holy Grail.

The opponent’s “Momentum” was clearly greater.

In such a case, in addition to sharing the lessons of the previous failure, a bit of mental stimulation was needed to help the team members perform at one hundred and twenty percent.

“Serious men are indeed the most attractive!”

Within the Sage’s increasingly solemn demeanor, a laugh came from the side.

Though there was no direct conversation, Ice’s perfectly timed tone captured the admiration most vividly.

“What a pity.”

Noticing the unnatural expressions on both Charlotte and Shi Gaozhi, Fu Qian chose to respond directly to the comment best left unanswered.

“I always thought you were the most charming one in the team.”

Gazing unabashedly into Ice’s face, his eyes even fell on her “Holy Garment,” as Fu Qian said something akin to a flirtatious remark with a smile.

In the corners of his eyes, the expressions of Charlotte and the others grew even more unnatural.

“Thank you… but now, the most charming person needs your help to hold on to this.”

Ice, clearly not quite accustomed to this somewhat passive situation, was taken aback for a moment but then smiled gracefully, tossing over the Golden Belt stripped from a sacrificed teammate.

Catching it with one hand, Fu Qian took a quick glance before casually tossing it into his bag.

“This style, indeed, doesn’t quite suit what you’re wearing now.”

…

Didn’t this live up to Sage Old Master’s expectations?

Seeing even Brother TP glance over, and Ice and the others momentarily speechless, Fu Qian was very pleased with this development.

After the provocation, the team’s initiative must have increased by at least fifty points, right?

“We can set off now.”

Whether or not he grasped Fu Qian’s intentions, Sage Old Master finally announced the continuation of the action.

And Fu Qian, as the focus of attention, assumed the role of the vanguard without needing a reminder.

…

“Left hand.”

A moment later, in the familiar position and with familiar gestures, the Sage called out as Fu Qian was already forming a golden spike in his hand.

With previous experiences and insights, it took only a little time to reconnect with the glove and gain control over Heart Calamity.

This cross-temporal inheritance, how else can you say knowledge is the most precious treasure?

Amidst admiration, the golden Resonance Spike had already blown away the head of the first living corpse.

As the shell of the living corpse shattered, the ethereal scent of brains reappeared in Fu Qian’s consciousness.

But well-prepared, he perfectly controlled every muscle, showing no sign of irregularity.

Of course, this stoic act was definitely not for Lady Ice to see.

In the corner of his eye, he noted Sage seeming to relax a little when he successfully formed the spike.

But now, the old master’s expression had become even more serious.
