Chapter 1046: Chapter 1044 Blind Eye (10) Chapter 1046: Chapter 1044 Blind Eye (10) “Indeed, a like-minded opponent!”

The Sage Old Master’s summary speech was very imposing, and Fu Qian listened to it with great admiration.

All-knowing versus all-knowing.

This person, like the Blind Eye Holy Grail, was not only a knowledge-type player but could also effortlessly see through the tactics of others.

Although it seemed he couldn’t copy at will, and the state of Insight couldn’t be maintained indefinitely, this ability to nullify the second attempt was undoubtedly quite suitable for dealing with these invisible and traceless killing moves.

Now that he thought about it, the initial puzzle in the Illusion Realm, the Sage Old Master had similarly indicated that there was no need to worry too much afterward, likely using a similar tactic.

The likelihood that this individual was a newcomer from the Blind Eye Association had undoubtedly surged, and this special organization was becoming increasingly intriguing.

A mere mortal’s body, merely by “knowledge” and an extraordinary item, could actually achieve this extent?

…

Misleading images? Misdirection?

Ice’s mind was clearly still flexible; although the Sage Old Master’s explanation was brief, combining with Shi Gaozhi’s previous words, she was almost the first to realize it.

“The thing just now, was it one of our people who got scared and ran away on their own?”

She inhaled unconsciously and, seeing that Charlotte was still unwilling to let go of Shi Gaozhi, she stepped forward and pressed down on the latter’s hand.

“He was just misled, he must have seen the Sage turn into a zombie as well.”

Seemingly to avoid upsetting Charlotte to the maximum extent, her voice and movements were equally gentle, and she explained the key points succinctly and clearly.

“Is that really the case?”

After frowning and asking, she realized Shi Gaozhi was choked to the point of being unable to answer, Charlotte snorted and threw him to the ground.

“Does that mean the one who walked away just now is actually fine? Should we bring him back?”

After numerous reassurances from the Sage and Ice, he finally calmed down and began to understand a bit.

“The time required for that would exceed our ability to endure.”

The Sage Old Master inevitably shook his head.

“He has already made his contribution, and our goal is not far away.”

“Alright.”

It was evident that Charlotte had only asked casually, and now she nodded in understanding.

The contribution made by the departed brother was naturally just cannon fodder.

This sort of tactic was full of unknowns and clearly meant that whoever was at the end of the line would have bad luck.

Even he wouldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t flee.

In fact, facing an opponent where numbers didn’t necessarily mean an advantage, the size of this team, the majority of it was for the sake of error tolerance.

And when the Sage mentioned that the goal was not far, the implication was that so much cannon fodder wouldn’t be needed anymore.

“So what are we waiting for?”

After catching his breath, Shi Gaozhi finally got up and walked to the front of the team.

“I can’t wait to witness this power, the kind of guidance that can achieve this… Does the Sage think it’s alive?”

“That depends on how you define the concept of being alive.”

The Sage took a glance at Shi Gaozhi walking beside him, seemingly aware of what he was worried about.

“Insight into everything is its inherent attribute, just like light illuminates everything, and at the same time, not willing to be seen.”

“The Holy Grail naturally tends to disappear from all cognition, all its previous actions are the manifestation of this attribute, which is in fact why it has been able to remain here for so long.”

“But aside from these, if what you mean by the so-called self-will, it clearly will not have such a boring concept.”

“I see, I think there is no artifact more suitable for the Association than this.”

Shi Gaozhi sighed deeply, showing a supremely satisfied expression.

“I also believe that it could indeed help mortals usher in a new era.”

…

Naturally inclined to disappear from all cognition?

It seems I’m getting a bit of an understanding of the purpose of this mission.

Indeed, inside the Association, there’s also VIP treatment, compared to the cannon fodder that is outright abandoned, seeing the Sage patiently explain to Shi Gaozhi, Fu Qian also came to know quite a few secrets.

So, the reason the warehouse had him come was because, with the Sage Old Master at the forefront, someone knew about the existence of the Holy Grail?

This is simple logic, if the Holy Grail has been here for many years, it suggests that such an unrecognized state is likely safe in the eyes of the warehouse.

And would the diligent progress of these Academy newcomers possibly lead to uncontrollable adverse consequences?

It makes sense and might even explain why the choice of team members is so carefully considered.

The more people who know, the more violently the Holy Grail would react, plus the authority of mimicking abilities, this seemingly weak team might be the best compromise after considering multiple factors.

But at the same time, another question unavoidably arose–why limit one’s own abilities?

If it’s because these people know too much and are troublesome, why not just send oneself here and slap them all to death.

Even with the Sage Old Master, who had the ability to delay death, Fu Qian didn’t think he would live a few more milliseconds under his hands.

There’s even no need to tell oneself about the Blind Eye Holy Grail.

But now, the warehouse simply took away all his ability items and made him honestly follow the exploration.

Why?

It surely can’t be just to increase the difficulty, right? Or because of previous poor work attitude?

Fu Qian shook his head in his heart, denying this guess.

In his view, the warehouse, like the Holy Grail, relied entirely on its inherent attributes, this kind of boring “emotion” shouldn’t relate to it.

He always felt that the answer to this question was a key piece of information.

“Well done.”

While he was pondering, Ice’s voice suddenly rang out nearby.

Praising himself? Considering he had been slacking the whole time, was this also considered well done?

Fu Qian looked curiously over, only to see Lady Ice smiling and her praising demeanor was quite genuine.

This psychological adjustment ability was really great; no wonder the Sage Old Master dared to form a team with such discordant elements.

Of course, it might also be that these three were brought in with resources and could not be excluded.

“Did I really do anything though?”

“Yeah, because you did nothing, take a look at those who did something.”

Ice pointed naturally around her, making more than one person choke in the moment.

Such bad habits are hard to break!

Fu Qian shook his head internally.

His words actually made sense, given the situation earlier, being able to stabilize and not add to the chaos was already quite a good handling of his role.

But the problem is, saying it this way, undoubtedly puts one on the hot seat.

Is it because he seemed too unmoved?

Sure enough, extraordinary qualities often come with quirks; this woman’s desire for control was simply outrageous.

“You’re not bad either.”

Not wanting to dwell on this, Fu Qian immediately satisfied her psychological need in the simplest way–with an expressionless modesty, his gaze lingered on her Holy Garment for an extra second.
