The Omniscient Carbuncle was still discussing, seemingly pouring all its energy into the discussion.
Yet several eyes remained fixed on Charles, so he did not dare move.
But the Omniscient Carbuncle had not left any of its attention on Jody, so she could move.
She walked toward the passageway, and Charles watched closely as well. He intended to use Jody as a test subject.
As light and shadows flashed, Jody vanished, which put Charles somewhat at ease.
It seemed that, at the very least, the Omniscient Carbuncle still kept its promises.
The Omniscient Carbuncle discussed for quite a while, giving several answers in succession, yet none received Charles's affirmative response.
At last, the Omniscient Carbuncle asked, "What a marvelous question. Then tell me, what is the answer?"
Hearing this, Charles sighed inwardly in relief.
The Omniscient Carbuncle truly had not paid the slightest attention to Jody's departure. Clearly, he and Jody, these two mortals, were no more than a bit of amusement in the Omniscient Carbuncle's long life.
It did not care whether Charles and Jody lived or died. The only thing it cared about was having fun.
Charles said, "Because the crocodile went to the lion's gathering and wasn't in the river."
The moment the Omniscient Carbuncle heard this, every eyeball on its face stopped turning, then all began blinking frantically.
"Good, good, good!"
"Hehehe!!"
"Good question, good question!!"
"Write it down, write it down!"
The Omniscient Carbuncle laughed as it recorded the question.
Clearly, throughout its long life, it had never encountered questions like Charles's.
These questions seemed simple, yet they came from memories of Charles's past life.
It was apparent from the Omniscient Carbuncle's name that it was not truly the Omniscient Brain.
Though it was far stronger than Charles, it could not achieve true omniscience.
