Chapter 434 Ikarys is struck by lightning again
Ikarys was startled; the lightning was so fast that before he could react, he was hit by it.
Lightning covered his entire body, causing him to convulse violently.
"Ack! Ack! Ack!"
From Ikarys's mouth came countless strange sounds as his teeth continuously shook.
Luckily, the lightning wasn't strong; it only made Ikarys twitch a little. But... he looked unpresentable.
His blonde hair was burned, and his white skin was also burned black. His luxurious clothes were also burned in many places, making him look extremely miserable, like a beggar.
Ikarys fell to his knees on the ground. Anyway, he had just been hit by a bolt of lightning. Although it wasn't too strong, it still made him almost lose consciousness.
The Eye of Puzzle said contemptuously: "I haven't finished speaking yet; why are you interrupting? Who are you? Do you think that I don't dare strike you with lightning?
Ikarys was startled and quickly shook his head, not daring to speak anymore. One bolt of lightning was more than enough to scare him.
However, Lathel was different. He felt that the lightning just now was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
'It's very familiar; although I don't know where I've encountered such lightning, it seems to be a rich source of energy to replenish my energy.'
'Hm... I'll just let Viva store a large amount of energy, then use the energy from the lightning to replenish my energy pool.'
'Great.'
Lathel now seemed to have found a solution to replenish his energy pool, so he smiled happily.
He approached the Eye of Puzzle, smiled, and said: "Oy! So, will you give me a riddle? Hurry up; I'm in a hurry."
Lathel's appearance was extremely arrogant, even a little contemptuous.
Arine nervously approached Lathel and pulled his hand: "Didn't you see that the Holy Son was just struck by lightning?" If you say that to him, he will hit you with lightning."
Lathel shivered as he still thought that Arine was a man who was holding his hand.
"You stay away from me for a bit." Lathel quickly withdrew her hand.
Arine frowned. She felt that Lathel seemed to be trying to stay away from her, like she was a disease.
Ikarys then quickly retreated while laughing loudly in his heart: 'Hahahaha... this trash is really stupid. Wait a moment, a lightning bolt, no, it will definitely be ten lightning bolts that will kill him.'
The Eye of Puzzle looked at Lathel; its eyes seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he sighed and said: "Okay, don't rush me. I have been sleeping for thousands of years, and as soon as I woke up, all of you were rushing me."
"Young man, you shouldn't be too hasty when you're so young."
Lathel: "..."
'Oy! Where's the lightning? Or... I'm not arrogant enough, not enough to make him angry.'
Lathel took a deep breath, frowned, and said: "Oy! Have you been sleeping for so long that you're confused? Do you believe I won't punch your eye out?"
"You are wasting my time. If you bring me a treasure that pleases me, I can forgive you."
He crossed his arms as he spoke.
Ikarys was happy at this moment. Pulling Arine back, he said: "Don't stand next to him, or the lightning will hit you later."
"You... you let me go." Arine retracted her hand.
Ikarys was a bit startled by Arine's strength. He did not think that Arine had such terrible physical strength, despite looking like a loli.
You must know that Ikarys' current level is 40. Even though he is a magician, his physical strength is not weak.
"Are you crazy? If trash like him dares to be so arrogant, he will definitely be struck to death by lightning."
Lathel: "??!!"
"Oy! You..."
"Don't worry..." Eye of Puzzle immediately explained: "I just threw him back to the first trial room. After you pass this test, he will also be able to return to the real world."
"If you cannot pass this test... sorry, all of you must die."
Dorothy now pouted and said: "Huh! Brother, don't worry. I will protect you."
"Oy!" Arine shouted angrily: "Look at your height; how can you protect someone when you're that short?"
"Flat chest, what are you talking about?" Dorothy also did not hold back and immediately scolded her.
"You..."
"Enough!" Lathel sighed. He suddenly remembered a saying he once heard on Earth that he felt was accurate.
Two women meeting each other is noisier than a market.
Just like that saying said, Arine and Dorothy were noisier than a market.
"Everyone listen to the question first. If there is any conflict, wait until the end of the genius convention, or until we pass all the challenges, then resolve it."
Hearing that, Lathel approached the Eye of Puzzle. Ikarys also did the same; however, right now he looked extremely miserable.
"Huh!" They both snorted, looking in different directions.
"Good!" The Eye of Puzzle now spoke: "First, the men should step forward, starting with you."
Hearing that, Lathel approached the Eye of Puzzle. Ikarys also did the same; however, right now he looked extremely miserable.
His skin was as black as an African, and his blond hair was also burned black.
Ikarys didn't seem to realise how miserable his current appearance was. On the contrary, he arrogantly looked at Lathel.
Lathel: ( ̄ ̄ |||)
"Oy! Do you want to look in the mirror?"
Hearing Lathel's words, Ikarys angrily shouted: "Shut up! Don't talk nonsense; this time I will show you that you are just trash. I will show you the difference between trash and a true genius."
Lathel refused to answer; he knew that the male protagonists were all that arrogant, and he also didn't want to waste his calories refuting Ikarys's meaningless statements.
The eye of Puzzle looked at Lathel, then looked at Ikarys and said: "If either of your answers satisfy me, that person will pass this test."
"First question. What is one plus one?
Lathel: "..."
Everybody: "..."
Ikarys laughed: "Hahahahaha... I thought you were going to ask something very difficult, hahahahaha... Okay, let me answer first."
"One plus one equals two."
"What about you?" Eye of Puzzle glanced at Lathel.
Lathel shrugged and said: "About three."
"Hahahaha... you idiot!" Ikarys laughed loudly: "One plus one equals three; you're trash."
BAM!
Ikarys was once again struck by lightning.
