Rule Loopholes
Although the process of slaughtering snails and geese seemed understated...
But knowing they would be facing one of them next, none of the Player present dared to underestimate the goose and the snail!
Ka's actions, on the contrary, proved that this Octopus was very powerful.
After killing eight animals, Ka's eight tentacles simultaneously began to cook them.
They cut open the goose's abdominal cavity to remove the liver, and pulled the snail meat out of its shell...
Then, various seasonings were taken out of the water, and the thick liver, which was the size of a basketball, and the snail, which was the size of a fist, were fried on the iron plate.
Li Hua's analysis is correct; foie gras is present in large quantities, and snail meat contains some residual toxins.
However, this is just an extra part of the test.
What's truly difficult to deal with...
It's the one who's left and alive!
While the foie gras and snails were being pan-fried...
A tall, transparent barrier fell from the sky, landing directly on either side of everyone and extending to the center of the table.
The partitions divide the round table into seven equal sections.
And doing this...
This is, of course, to prevent the animals in front of each person from running to other areas.
Each area was assigned a snail box and a cage for holding geese.
The box and cage in front of Lin Yu were empty.
His snails and geese are already being cooked.
So he leisurely looked at the boxes and cages in front of the others.
Really...
After Ka began cooking, the other animal that was still alive was released!
A'yu, Qianhuan, and Mosin-Nagant chose foie gras, so what they had to deal with was the pitch-black Night Valley Venomous Snail.
Li Hua, Carrot, and Robin chose the snail, so they had to face the Wasteland Giant Goose.
The Wasteland Giant Goose moves very fast.
Almost the instant the cage door opened, they rushed out and headed towards the Player in front of them.
To Lin Yu's surprise...
The first person to solve this problem was actually that "farmer" named Carrot!
Without the slightest hesitation, this unassuming uncle, who looked like an old farmer from the countryside, took out a yellow Talisman from his pocket and tore it open.
Then, Lightning as thick as a forearm blasted out, instantly halting the charging momentum of the ferocious-looking goose and charring its entire body black!
Even through the partition, Lin Yu could smell a rich, burnt aroma.
Carrot, still shaken, breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of pain showing on his face.
"Call..."
Lin Yu stroked his chin, and roughly understood.
"Knowing that your direct Combat Power is weak, did you use some kind of very precious consumable Item?"
"It looks like some kind of Lightning Talisman... It's probably very expensive, and he probably doesn't have many on him... Or maybe it's priceless and was given to him by someone else."
Although the Carrot was dealt with quickly, Lin Yu knew that he was actually in the most danger.
It was precisely because of their confidence in dealing with the goose that the other party probably didn't hesitate to use their trump card attack.
The "farmer's" ability is to receive a "food" supply once a day, randomly obtaining a certain type of food. If there are plants, they can consume the plants to reset the skill cooldown once.
This is indeed a support role with relatively weak direct Combat Power, but it has an advantage in "survival" type Instance.
The Player "Carrot" is also known for his weak Combat Power. As one of the Founder of the "Player Mutual Aid Society", he has a very good reputation on the forum and is a rare "good guy" figure among Player.
Moreover, Carrot always acts and participates in Instance with his subordinates and various allies.
For some reason, I chose to participate in this Instance alone.
But precisely because of this...
Lin Yu dared not underestimate these established masters even more!
Even Player known for not being good at direct combat can pull out a Thunder Art Talisman that can blast a goose taller than a person into a charred mess if pushed to the limit!
What if you weren't careful and got struck by lightning...?
That would be a death sentence!
"The experience and expertise of these veteran Player should not be underestimated!"
Meanwhile, Li Hua and Robin began to fight with the Wasteland Giant Goose in front of them.
Li Hua took out a twenty-sided Dice from his pocket and kept spinning Dice before throwing it onto the table.
Every time Li Hua rolls the Dice, some low-probability events occur that severely hinder the goose's progress.
For example, you might slip and fall suddenly onto the table.
For example, you tripped over your left foot and then fell down with your right foot.
And then suddenly clutching its wing in pain, as if it were having a cramp.
And every time I fall, I feel dizzy and bump into a hard, transparent partition, which delays me for a while.
Of course, Li Hua himself wasn't idle during this process either; he kept taking out a deck of Playing Cards and some chips, seemingly planning and preparing something.
Lin Yu was also deeply impressed by what Robin done on the other side.
She kept drawing all sorts of Geometric Shapes on the sketch, and then those Geometric Shapes jump out and pile up on the table, blocking the goose's way!
The Wasteland Giant Goose in Robin kept hammering its head and gnawing at the Geometric Shapes with its beak, barely faster than a snail.
Of course, although choosing the snail's slow movement speed doesn't mean the remaining three had an easy time.
Whether it's "The Magician" Qianhuan, or A'yu and Mosin-Nagant.
They seemed powerless against the snails slowly crawling towards them!
Any attack—whether it's Mosin-Nagant Bow and Arrows or A'yu musket shot...
Or perhaps it was flames released from Qianhuan's hat.
Even they were somewhat helpless against this snail!
All attacks aimed at the snail were met with nothing; the snail simply retreated into its black shell and remained unharmed!
Seeing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but marvel at the sheer number of skillful Player these experts possessed.
On the other side, Lin Yu was extremely relieved...
Fortunately, he was shrewd and managed to outmaneuver the enemy at this juncture.
Otherwise, if he encountered a goose or a snail and had to fight to the death, Lin Yu really wasn't confident he could take down those two magical creatures directly.
Even if we barely manage to win...
If I end up looking so disheveled, it might arouse suspicion from others!
Of course, Lin Yu did not believe that this was a sign that he was more skilled than these veteran Player.
Rather than saying Lin Yu was exceptionally clever enough to see through the Octopus "card" trap...
Rather, it's because each of the three Instance he's currently experiencing has traps and inducements from NPCs and the "Rule."
Especially the second Instance involving Deity —that had the most traps!
Therefore, Lin Yu's thinking habits and methods are different from most Player.
When presented with any Rule or instructions, Lin Yu would first doubt them, then doubt them again.
Look for the Word Trap and hints within.
Based on the reactions of these veteran Player, Lin Yu could even deduce something from their reactions.
"It seems that Instance that deliberately create loopholes in the Rule are truly a very small minority."
