"Wait a minute!" After noticing the core of the problem, Bediwell shouted without thinking too much: "We can't each care for ourselves!"
The candidates present did not seem to pay attention to the werewolf youth's shouts, and were still dodging the rolling balls. However, the speed of the rolling balls obviously accelerated a lot. In the blink of an eye, five more hunters present were hit and sucked by the rolling balls.
The rolling ball rolled out of the field together!
Then, as many rolling balls rolled out from the missing balls in the open barrier, as many new rolling balls were added from the hidden slots in the room. Their speeds were different from other rolling balls. There were rolling balls of different speeds in the field.
The formation is even more difficult to hide from!
"Everyone, please listen to me!" Bediwell knew that others might not listen to him, but he still suggested: "This is a trap! The balls will accelerate immediately after hitting the barrier. As a result, their speed will be
It will get faster and faster! If you don't do something, they will eventually be so fast that no one can avoid them!"
Although he said this, no one paid any attention to Bediwell. The scene was already chaotic and tense. People were already struggling to take care of themselves and avoid the oncoming balls. How could they have time to listen to the werewolf youth?
if?
"Don't you realize yet? This is not a test of our agility and responsiveness at all. This test is used to test our teamwork ability!" Bediwell still shouted regardless of others turning a deaf ear to his words.
: "We must work together to pass this test! If we don't cooperate well, no one will be able to pass this test--except for the guy who floats in mid-air with the ability to cheat.
!"
However, it was useless. No one was listening to Bediwell's words. The people present were still dodging the big iron balls that were flying around. Three more people made a mistake and were sucked by the iron balls, and then they were all caught together.
The balls rolled out of the barrier together and were disqualified!
"Well...!" With no other choice, Bediwell could only rush to the edge of the barrier and hold it there, personally demonstrating the correct way to pass this test.
Yes, there is a barrier behind him. That thing was originally used to prevent challengers from escaping from the test area, but it is also the best backing, because after standing there, Bediwell does not have to worry about being hit by the iron ball.
He was hit from behind, and he only needed to protect himself from the iron balls coming from directly in front and from both sides!
It just so happened that a big iron ball rolled over from one side very fast. If it hit the barrier and received greater kinetic energy from the barrier to accelerate, its rolling speed would become even faster!
Boom! Faced with the iron ball that was hitting him at high speed, Bedivere pushed it away without even thinking!
The iron ball had not had time to attract the magnet vest worn by the werewolf youth, and it was far away from the werewolf youth. Moreover, the iron ball itself did not hit the barrier, so its speed did not increase! Although the iron ball itself was smooth and hollow,
But when it rolls on the ground, it will still cause friction with the ground. It does not get additional acceleration after rolling for a long time, and its speed does not rise but falls!
This isn't a dodge ball game at all, it's a push ball game.
If all the bounty hunters present could circle the edge of the barrier like Bediwell and push away the oncoming iron balls in time so that the iron balls could not touch the barrier, they would not be able to continue.
The acceleration continues! As long as the nine big iron balls maintain a relatively stable or even slowing down speed, there is no difficulty in this test!
What the big man in the black suit said at the beginning, "candidates can use physical skills to hinder each other" was a misleading description. The purpose was to create a sense of hostility among the people present. However, in fact, it was just the opposite. Their employer did not say that at all.
If there is a limit on how many people are hired to participate in this mission, it is entirely possible that everyone present will pass!
If all the bounty hunters who come here to participate in the challenge follow the spirit of teamwork and defend this iron ball formation, then everyone can pass this test, instead of "the last remaining ones can pass the test"!
"I see, it really is." Suddenly a figure jumped next to Bedivere, and that person was none other than Musketeer Nat: "It's a good proposal, and I can count it in my share."
There happened to be two iron balls attacking from the left and right of Bediville. Originally, the werewolf young man could not deal with the attack of two big iron balls at the same time, but now he only had to deal with the attack from one side.
, the other side is solved by Nat beside him!
"Hmph!" Bedivere pushed away the iron ball rolling towards him on his left, and glanced nervously at his right side. He originally thought that Nat might have a grudge against what happened in yesterday's arena match, and was deliberately trying to trick him.
Unexpectedly, Musketeer Nat actually pushed the iron ball away and helped Bedivere escape the siege. In any case, it is always a good thing not to have to face two iron balls from both sides at the same time!
The other challengers present saw the situation on Bediwell's side and understood. Regardless of whether mutual cooperation is reliable or not, if you defend with your back to the barrier, at least you don't have to worry about being hit from behind by an iron ball. This is a
A huge advantage. Then Bediwell and the others' actions also proved that although these seemingly huge, hollow iron balls can indeed be pushed away with bare hands, then what is there to be afraid of? As a seasoned adventurer
, just guarding the front and sides of oneself, almost everyone present can't do it!
So, without Bediveldo's urging, people ran over to guard the barrier automatically and consciously. There were more than sixty people left present, and each of these sixty people occupied a position on the edge of the barrier.
In this way, when faced with the oncoming iron ball, they could actively push it away, and the originally chaotic situation was instantly under control! People even consciously adjusted the distance between each other, allowing them to form a circle
This circle of protective net can be defended without being too loose or too close. This is not because of who is in command, it is just because the hunters actually still distrust each other and are unwilling to get too close to other bounty hunters.
That’s it!
But regardless of the form, the defensive circle has indeed taken shape, and the situation is under control. No half of the iron ball can touch the outer circle of the barrier, and the iron ball is pushed away before hitting the barrier.
Therefore, they cannot obtain the acceleration effect from the barrier at all, and will only gradually slow down as the number of times people push the ball increases!
Counting the time from the beginning of the test, fifteen minutes have passed. As long as you continue to control the situation like this, getting through the remaining fifteen minutes will be a piece of cake!
Of course, this test will definitely not be that simple. The situation is under control, which also means that the employer is also starting to stir up troubles and increase the difficulty of the test!
Just as Bedivere expected, more iron balls really poured out of the hidden slots in the room, and nine of them poured out in an instant. Including the nine that were originally in the test area, there were ten in total.
Eight iron balls. These eighteen iron balls were put into the test area and began to collide with each other and fly around. The entire test suddenly changed from a relaxed and enjoyable "ball pushing game" to a twice as difficult "pinball game"
".
"Wow!" "Oh!" Before the werewolf youth noticed, three more bounty hunters were hit. Because the balls collided with each other, they were suddenly hit by other balls before approaching them and changed their trajectory, causing people to judge.
If you make a mistake, you will be sucked by the iron ball. And because people formed a circle and stood on the edge of the outside, the unlucky ones who were hit by the trick were knocked out of the barrier as soon as their magnet vests were sucked by the ball.
You lose your qualifications without even having a chance to struggle!
"It's troublesome." Bedivere couldn't help but hum. There are more and more balls, but fewer and fewer people are present. If this continues, people who can form a circle to defend will eventually be overwhelmed by the ever-increasing and ever-changing iron balls.
If the array collides, the premise that "all bounty hunters participating in the test will work together to pass the test" cannot be established.
Something must be done to reduce the number of iron balls on the field.
etc.
The werewolf young man suddenly thought of something. His thinking was reversed in an instant.
Before starting, the big man explained three rules: [You can use physical skills to hinder others], [You can use magic to protect yourself] and [You cannot use magic to hinder others].
So by drawing inferences from one example, [using magic to destroy the ball] is also allowed by the rules, right?
Bedivere then terminated the effect of [spell---increased heartbeat], and then summoned the fire of the spell again, and at the same time, a thick and sticky tar gathered in the palm of his hand.
It is a mixture of blood and oil. The oil in Bediwell's body is first extracted, and then heated continuously with the magic fire, and the oil is turned into a tar-like substance as much as possible without evaporating it, and the oil is enlarged.
The stickiness.
It is also a mixture of iron and carbon. Blood originally contains a large amount of iron oxide. This iron will crystallize after being refined, and will continue to crystallize and harden as the spell is released. [Spell - Steel
Body] uses this principle to attach a protective iron coating to the surface of the human body.
This tar has excellent viscosity and can be instantly crystallized when it hits the ground. It is now mainly used to stick things.
Bedivere threw the sticky tar out without thinking - the target was of course not anyone else, but the floor in the center of the room.
The thick cursed tar quickly spread on the floor, turning into a pit with a radius of about half a yard. This inexplicable vermilion object contained thick tar-like substances and various iron oxides.
Crystallized particles. They all play a role in slowing down or even blocking the rolling of the iron ball.
At this moment, a large iron ball happened to roll towards the center of the room, crushing onto the black tar. The stickiness of the tar successfully slowed down its rolling speed, and even made it almost stop rolling!
Boom! This iron ball slowed down, but the other iron balls did not slow down. Another iron ball hit it, and collided with the iron ball that had tar on the surface, and the two iron balls
