Chapter 1039: Chapter 1037 Blind Eye (Three) Chapter 1039: Chapter 1037 Blind Eye (Three) Is this the ultimate form of a disfigured face?

Fu Qian silently commented as he stared at the brother whose facial features had abruptly changed with the rest of the group.

As an ordinary person, he couldn’t sense the changes inside the other’s body.

But just from the intuitively contrarian and nausea-inducing disarray of facial features, it seemed to predict a complete collapse of this team member’s self.

Of course, the conclusion about the nausea was mainly drawn from observation.

Apart from the Saintly Old Master, the other two who were awake looked quite unwell within seconds.

Ugh!

Of course, in the next moment, Ah You’s expression somewhat relaxed because he actually threw up.

He then quickly relied on his strong willpower to keep the amount he vomited within a moderately polite range.

But with this action, Ice’s face visibly relaxed too.

Isn’t human nature truly strange!

To Fu Qian, even if Ah You swallowed back what he’d vomited, his emotions wouldn’t fluctuate, but the subtle interplay between these two was a complex reflection of human nature to him.

“Have some water.”

But unlike her previous hostile demeanor, Ice’s face relaxed, and her tone, devoid of any sarcasm, handed over a water bottle.

If he wasn’t mistaken, that was even her personal water bottle.

No wonder she could maintain such a harsh demeanor–really effective tactics.

Fu Qian caught this scene from the corner of his eye, praised it quietly, but didn’t care to pay more attention.

At this moment, what interested him most was the performance of the first failure.

Although his features shifted dramatically, it was notable that he still breathed and hadn’t sprouted any oddities.

It must be mainly a mental impact, yet strong enough to distort his face…
Each person troubled separately, each puzzle independent…
Nothing specific seen in the room suggested that this influence might be crossing spaces…
The team prepared for this deliberately; it was an expected danger in the operation…
Although they brought the “Golden Sacred Garment”, they didn’t try to forcibly resolve it, but relied on something they referred to as “knowledge”–it indicated that the force behind the puzzle likely couldn’t be countered that way…
All in all, they came prepared, with clear objectives; regardless of whether their goals fully aligned, it was worth cooperating to explore further.

Having swiftly drawn conclusions, Fu Qian decided to adhere to team spirit for a bit longer–unfortunately, some people didn’t seem as committed.

From the corner of his eye, after a small sip of water, Ah You had completely recovered his senses.

However, his first reaction wasn’t to savor the lingering scent from the water bottle, but to glance at himself.

His expression even more stern than before.

What kind of team configuration was this?

Clearly prepared sufficiently, yet the choice of people proved so unreliable?

Couldn’t he tone down that flagrant competitive attitude?

Fu Qian naturally understood the meaning behind that look; it was clear dissatisfaction that he wasn’t the first to break under pressure, making him a channel for relieving stress.

This is where the disadvantage of teams formed by ordinary people lies; usually, in teams of the Transcendent, due to the existence of rankings, there’s a recognized evaluation standard, making the team dynamics much simpler.

But with a group of ordinary people putting on equipment, it inevitably brings in more sociological elements.

In mocking spirit, facing this dull negative emotion, Fu Qian’s response was not even to look.

The next moment, he stood up, walked over to the first failed member, and tried to poke his eyelid.

Under his finger, almost instantly, the eye that had originally wandered to one side of the face briskly moved to a diagonal position.

And it wasn’t just the eyes; other parts also chaotically squeezed and scurried around.

Like a startled school of fish.

It was truly marvelous!

The scene before him felt as if his facial features had completely become independent, each attached to a separate strip of flesh and blood beneath the skin, resembling fish swimming around.

The loosely scattering fish maintained a fragile equilibrium, reacting rapidly to any disturbance.

In order to verify his idea, Fu Qian seized the opportunity the next moment and reached out to grab one of the ears.

Feeling a force almost like a struggle, Fu Qian did not let it have its way, firmly pinching it as it made a full rotation around the face like spreading out a pancake.

The room was dead silent, regardless of what anyone had previously been thinking, now they were all staring at this abstract move.

And as expected, where the ear passed, eyes and mouth scrambled in all directions, like a school of fish being driven away, unable to find a place to settle.

“How interesting, just like a school of fish being driven away.”

Just as Fu Qian was thoroughly enjoying himself, a voice that echoed his earlier comment rang out.

It was an unfamiliar voice.

Hearing this, Fu Qian finally stopped his actions.

After all, it would be awkward to continue playing after such a remark, and he might even be accused of desecrating a corpse.

Looking in the direction of the voice, the man who had awakened didn’t look to be even thirty years old.

He was tall and thin, with thin lips; the upper half of his face adorned with a gold decoration that covered one eye.

Yet even so, with just half his face visible, he still embodied a nonchalant demeanor.

“How does it feel to touch?”

Even seeing Fu Qian look over, this man asked in a very serious tone.

“The fish did put up quite a fight.”

As a team, Fu Qian sincerely shared his experience.

Hahaha…
The man was initially startled by the response but seemed quite amused afterwards.

“Shi Gaozhi, you’d better keep quiet!”

However, this laughter, lasting just a few seconds, seemed to have generated a considerable amount of resentment.

Ah You, who had been looking unhappy at Fu Qian, immediately switched targets, scolding without any hesitation.

“Any action might cause disturbance, don’t drag others down with your own reckless behavior.”

“I’m sorry, I forgot.”

The one called Shi Gaozhi apologized quickly, earnestly admitting his mistake right after stopping his laughter.

“But according to the rules, you should be calling me One-Eyed, right, Ah You?”

So he really was called Ah You, perhaps the codenames were assigned based on body parts?

Fu Qian found it quite amusing, but the person in question clearly did not think so.

Ah You’s gaze was icy as he glared at Shi Gaozhi.

“You should focus more on solving the puzzle instead, delving deeper might not always find people willing to cover for you.”

Not to show off your wit, as your problem-solving is too slow.

“That makes sense…”
Faced with reality, Shi Gaozhi seemed to have little to say.

However, after slightly nodding, he suddenly sniffed and looked around.

“What’s that smell?”
