"Enough! Wang Defa, are you ever going to stop? What time is it now? How can you still afford to have a personal tantrum here? If it weren't to assist Lady Elsie in quickly breaking the door's lock, do you think I would allow them to come upstairs?" Eva held back her urge to burst out angrily. At the same time, her face once again uncontrollably flushed red.
Since the moment Harkyn entered quietly and sat there drinking tea, after Eva and Wang Defa finished their round of arguing, Elsie finally spoke up, "Oh? So that's the reason. Did you really find any problems? Firstly, I'm not questioning anyone or looking down on anyone, but the difficulties we face now are probably not something ordinary people can solve!"
It was not difficult to hear the skepticism in Elsie's casual words toward Harkyn's group. However, Harkyn did not falter due to Elsie's doubts. Instead, he gathered courage and stepped forward again to stand in front of Elsie, saying, "Uh, I understand what Lady Elsie means. After all, the three of us have just been born for a short time, and we have extremely limited knowledge of things in this world. But I also hope that you, Lady Elsie, can trust us and give us a chance to try. Because, just upon seeing the colored light in the lighthouse for the first time, a thought suddenly came to my mind. Although this thought is very vague and difficult to describe in words, it gave me a strong feeling. It is precisely this feeling that seems to make me understand how to repair the flaws in the password. So, if Lady Elsie agrees, I can assist all of you esteemed saviors in making an attempt to break the current deadlock and force the enemy besieging the human capital to retreat!"
While Harkyn was explaining the problem, he cleverly avoided mentioning the spell and only roughly explained his thoughts. However, Harkyn believed that even if he expressed himself very vaguely, Elsie and the others should understand the meaning behind his words. Sure enough, after listening to Harkyn's explanation, including Elsie, the group of saviors flashed a trace of imperceptible surprise between their eyebrows. However, due to the small reaction of the saviors, except for Harkyn's trio, Eva and the others were completely unaware of it. This led Eva and the others to mistakenly think that Harkyn had not received the recognition of the saviors and nervously held their breath, while sweating for Harkyn.
After a moment of silence among everyone, Elsie elegantly handed the tea cup in her hand to Dr. Chu and then asked in a calm tone, "Oh? Did you really have a special feeling behind the lighthouse? Then can you tell us, did you perceive any information at that time?"
Although Elsie sounded very calm when she spoke, making them look very imposing, Harkyn's trio could feel that Elsie was now trying hard to control her excited emotions. Elsie urgently wanted to know how to repair the flaw, which inevitably made Harkyn's trio feel that there was something strange about the whole thing, and at the same time added a sense of vigilance towards Elsie.
"Uh, well, how should I put it? Although the information I felt in my mind is very, I don't know how to describe it." Harkyn hesitated as if he wanted to speak and stopped.
"Why?" Elsie continued to ask in a seemingly peaceful tone.
"I don't know either. Perhaps this is what is meant by not being able to explain only to be understood! In short, I don't know how to describe the information I gained. However, if Lady Elsie allows me to perform an actual operation, maybe I can help you repair the flaws in that password." Harkyn replied with embarrassment.
The reason why Harkyn answered like this was not entirely to argue with Elsie. Because, according to Harkyn's previous operations in the simulated environment of the Mold Energy Tracking System, he can only implant the spells he mastered into the password after that password is activated to repair the flaw in the password to ensure that Elsie and they use the password to complete the breaking of the lock of that door.
"Humph! It's a mystery!" Dr. Chu, who couldn't listen anymore, suddenly quipped. In his opinion, since Harkyn couldn't say what he had in mind, it was enough to show that Harkyn's idea was unreliable. Wang Defa, standing beside Dr. Chu, also shook his head with a cold smile, feeling very annoyed that he had been persuaded by such a guy with a problem to come and disturb the saviors.
"Humph! Listen to you! As if I heard a speech! After talking for a long time, it's the same as not saying anything clear. Hey! You kid, you're really good at literary nonsense! No wonder when it comes to cheating a little girl's feelings, you can be so handy!" Wang Defa said with a sneer, while using a mocking and mocking look at Eva and Dream Jia, making the two girls embarrassed and not knowing how to respond for a while.
Dr. Chu and Wang Defa, seeing that no one refuted them, became interested and prepared to continue to tease Harkyn. But before they could speak again, Elsie said first: "The two of you stop it. I think since Harkyn has the courage to come over, it must be because he really thinks he can help."
After reprimanding Dr. Chu and Wang Defa with a calm but slightly displeased tone, Elsie asked again, "Ah Yun, do you really think your feelings are correct, and can you help us repair the flaws in the password?"
Harkyn pretended to think carefully about the question and then nodded courageously in response.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Well, how confident are you in your success?" Elsie asked again.
"Uh, honestly, I don't know. But I can feel that there is a force in my heart strongly suggesting that I should give it a try." Harkyn answered again uncertainly but with a confident expression.
Elsie frowned slightly, stared at Harkyn's confused but confident face for a moment, then nodded satisfactorily, and turned to other saviors for a brief eye contact before sighing and saying, "Well, okay. Since you can try it yourself, we'll give you this opportunity! However, we still have to make it clear beforehand. If you cannot provide effective help as described, you will have to leave the Skull Squadron after this mission and be assigned to the mountain to plant flowers."
"Understood! I will do my utmost to assist the Savior Lords in repairing the flaws in the secret! If I fail to fulfill my promise, I am willing to accept any punishment! Even if the Savior Lords expel us on the spot and leave us to fend for ourselves, I will not complain!" Seeing Elsie agree to his request, Hao Yun immediately bowed to all the Savior Lords. Elina and the others breathed a sigh of relief after Elsie agreed to Hao Yun's request.
Although Elsie had agreed to let Hao Yun participate in the next unlocking task, Dr. Chu couldn't help but worry: "But, Elsie, isn't this too risky? After all, Hao Yun is just an ordinary human; how can he withstand the pressure of unlocking the seal? Not to mention whether the so-called insights he has can actually be helpful. If he collapses suddenly in the middle of unlocking the seal, wouldn't it seriously disrupt the process?"
Dr. Chu's concern was not without reason. In his view, Hao Yun was nothing more than an extraordinarily ordinary human. Therefore, there was a high probability that he would collapse under the immense energy pressure during the unlocking process. If Hao Yun encountered an accident midway through the intricate unlocking process, it could not only affect the continuation of the work but might also lead to unforeseen complications, seriously jeopardizing the smooth progress of subsequent tasks.
Naturally, Elsie understood Dr. Chu's concerns, but she elegantly raised her hand to calm him down, speaking calmly, "It's alright, Dr. Chu. I understand your concerns. However, even if Hao Yun encounters an accident during the unlocking process, at most, it will only lead to one more failure. We've already failed several times now, so even a couple more failures would be acceptable."
She glanced in the direction of the stadium, where the Xibo had intensified their forces, further intensifying the battle there. So, Elsie continued seriously, "The situation with the Skull Squad is very tense, so if we've decided to do this, we must act quickly! Hao Yun, remember, when we unlock the seal, a very powerful energy will be released, causing you intense pain akin to being struck by lightning. As an ordinary human, you can only endure it for a few seconds. So, you must be prepared. If you cannot repair the flaw in the password according to the insights you've gained, you must not force yourself and should withdraw from the energy as soon as possible. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee your survival, and you may not even leave behind a complete corpse. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand! Please rest assured, Elsie! I will do my best to assist the Savior Lords in unlocking the seal! If things feel wrong, I will retreat on my own to avoid any negative impact on the unlocking process due to my mistakes!" Hao Yun patted his chest fearlessly and responded firmly.
In fact, as long as the Savior Lords allowed him to participate in the unlocking process, Hao Yun's goal would be achieved. As for the possibility of failure later, Hao Yun wasn't too worried. After all, through multiple simulations of the system and successfully repairing the flaws in the password each time, he was very confident that he could immediately repair the password after the Savior Lords activated it, ensuring that it could unlock the seal on the door.
As for the powerful force Elsie mentioned, Hao Yun was not worried at all. As a quasi-cleric himself, he naturally would not fear the powerful divine force that might appear during the unlocking process. Moreover, such a powerful divine force from the world of spirits would not harm Hao Yun, a half-baked cleric, in any way. However, despite the fact that the three of them had superhuman strength, when they heard about the huge risks in the unlocking process, Elina and the others couldn't help showing concern.
Seeing the worry in their eyes, Dream Jia walked over to them and said, "Don't worry! Ah Yun is very clever! If he really encounters any problems, he has plenty of ideas to avoid risks!"
After speaking, Dream Jia even patted Elina's shoulder very rarely, so that even Elina couldn't help but be surprised and open her mouth. Could it be that——? Does the powerful Dream Jia sister agree with me to join their big family? Surprisingly, Elina was amazed to think so. Dream Jia then looked coldly at the picture outside, and a sharp killing intent immediately struck the author's heart. So, in the face of embarrassment, he couldn't help but cry on his face. Because he didn't want to joke about the subtle relationship between Dream Jia and Elina.
"Very well. Since you insist on trying, then prepare yourself!" Seeing Hao Yun's confident appearance, Elsie nodded in satisfaction. Then, she got up and gestured for Hao Yun to sit next to the three Savior Lords who were still meditating.
It was only at this moment that Hao Yun noticed that the foreheads of these three Savior Lords, who had their eyes closed tightly, were covered with a thin layer of translucent white frost, making their already pale faces look even more exhausted. It was evident that unlocking the seal of the gate was truly exhausting work, so much so that these Savior Lords had to take turns meditating to ensure that the necessary formations for unlocking the seal remained active.
"Elsie, the formation has been reset. Now, we can reactivate the password and try to unlock the seal again," another Savior Lord said after joining the meditation team.
"Good. Zheng, ensure that the password is fully activated first. Then, I will assist Ah Yun in intervening and attempt to repair the flaws in the password," Elsie replied.
"Yes, Elsie," Zheng, the Savior Lord, responded. He then called the other two Savior Lords who were meditating to join in, and together with the three Savior Lords sitting on the ground, they expanded the formation into a hexagon. Zheng and the others silently recited what sounded like meaningless incantations, injecting their energy into the formation. Then, under the joint spellcasting of the six Savior Lords, all the energy they released entered the light pen recorder placed at the center of the formation like electricity, immediately starting it up on its own.
