Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 461 - 271: Chopped Hand Gate2

It seems that he also guessed the other things they wanted to ask, and the long-haired man continued to add:

"Because the passage inside is not straight, it is not very practical to use an object to hook the key, unless there is a tool equipped with a video probe. Unfortunately, electronic products like that can’t be used here."

After so hesitation, the man with glasses still stepped forward. It couldn’t be helped, it seed that he was the only one in the team with neural enhancents. If he couldn’t do it, it was even less likely for the others.

Next to them, Katerina suggested:

"As it appears now, there doesn’t seem to be a limit to the number of attempts. Even if there is, it would probably allow more than just two or three tries. So, I recomnd that for the first try, you focus on feeling out the shape and position of the key rather than rushing to get it out in one go."

After all, it will take ti to touch the key and then pick it up, so it’s better to probe once, and on the second attempt, you can not only understand the response ti of the chanism but also figure out the position of the object, which would make success more likely."

The Japanese group sat or lay around with relaxed expressions, as if they had no concerns at all.

Li Ang was sowhat noncommittal. Although he was certain he could retrieve the key, if others wanted to show their abilities, then let them try.

He also didn’t like acting as a babysitter to this group. If he solved everything, not only would they not be grateful, but they would also take it for granted.

It was only after they tried and failed could he step in, which would make his intervention more valuable.

He had learned from past experiences, after efficiently and high-quality completion of a project, his boss thought the project was simpler than expected and didn’t recognize his contribution.

After two minutes of ntal preparation, the man with glasses finally extended his right hand into the hole slowly.

For him, the hole represented not just physical danger but also imnse psychological pressure.

The unknown always brings more fear to people.

Even being confident in his reaction speed, the man with glasses still moved his arm very slowly.

Even though the few Japanese looked sowhat impatient, they still did not urge him on, as none in their team were particularly adept at speed and response. If they hurried him and he failed, they would gain no advantage from it.

The man with glasses could feel every detail inside the hole as his fingers touched it, but the more he felt, the more his hand trembled.

For he didn’t know when he would touch the key or how fast the blades inside would fall, he only had an estimated value from the Indian guy, 0.8 seconds.

Suddenly, after his finger went around a "J"-shaped bend, he touched sothing that was clearly made of a different material. His body jerked as if electrified, and his hand automatically began to retract.

The idle and visibly bored Li Ang also caught this change and delivered a kick to the chest of the bespectacled man.

The kick accelerated the man’s retracting arm even more.

It also caused him to fall backward onto the ground.

Though the man with glasses only made a retracting hand movent, he was panting as if he had run ten kiloters, drenched in sweat and breathing heavily.

"Tha... Thank... Thank you for the help."

The man with glasses imdiately thanked Li Ang. Although his fingers hadn’t touched the blades in the end, he could feel the airflow from when the blades moved to cut.

If it hadn’t been for Li Ang’s kick, he might have lost several fingers by now.

Once he had cald down, the man with glasses went straight to the Indian man and delivered a kick.

"Damn it, you almost got my fingers chopped off, the chanism’s response ti is not 0.8 seconds, but 0.6 seconds!"

With his highly developed nervous system, not only was his reaction speed extrely fast, but he also had a keen sense of these minor changes in ti and estimations.

anwhile, soone from the rcenary organization spoke up:

"Perhaps you have misjudged him. When he made the attempt, I was not far from him and was also clearly aware of the entire process. My asured ti was also around 0.8 seconds, and the error won’t exceed 0.05 seconds."

"So...you’re saying, as the attempts progress, the response ti of the chanism inside here is also decreasing?"

Katerina asked, frowning.

"I think that’s very likely."

"Had you guys already tried once when you ca here?"

The man with glasses suddenly looked at those Japanese with a sharp gaze.

They didn’t even bother to pretend, instead answered carelessly:

"Hey, anyone who gets here first would think to give it a try, right? That’s normal."

"Then why didn’t you say so earlier?"

The tall Les questioned as well.

"You didn’t ask, so why should we tell you? Besides, we didn’t pay attention to asuring the response ti at first, thinking it’s quite reasonable that the tis for both attempts were the sa."

The long-haired Japanese man still seed sowhat nonchalant.

"Also, don’t you dare look at with that kind of eyes again, or I will have Lord Yoshimura gouge them out for you."

Hearing this response, Les clenched his teeth, but ultimately didn’t retort and averted his gaze.

Faced with this situation, everyone present found themselves at a loss.

Who would have thought that although there wasn’t a fixed number of attempts, each one would be more difficult than the last?

The attempt by the man with glasses just now was already the third, and the response ti had already reached 0.6 seconds, does that an the next response ti would only be 0.4 seconds?

And there were only two more attempts left. If both of the next two failed, the response ti would reach zero seconds, leaving no chance at all.

Katerina also felt so guilt, not expecting that her suggestion to err on the side of caution ended up being a mistake, wasting a precious opportunity.

Li Ang obviously noticed this and patted her shoulder, reassuring her with a smile:

"It’s not your fault, according to your suggestion, he just touched the key and almost got his finger cut off, clearly, 0.6 seconds was already his limit. If he had tried to take the whole key, you might be stopping the bleeding on his wrist by now."

With Li Ang’s words, the others also ca to understand, realizing that it made sense.

Just now, because the difficulty seed insurmountable, many of them had indeed quietly shifted the bla onto Katerina.

After completely understanding, everyone’s gaze returned to the man with glasses, waiting for his second attempt.

However, like a bobblehead, he shook his head repeatedly, making it clear that he would not try again.

That one attempt had left a profound shadow on him, and as Li Ang said, he barely coped with a 0.6-second response ti.

This ti it was 0.4 seconds, and it would require grabbing the key and pulling it out; the difficulty had increased exponentially, he knew just by thinking about it that he couldn’t succeed.

"Hey, are you really not going to try again? If you go, at most you’ll lose a hand, but if you don’t, we’ll have to chop off both your arms later."

The long-haired Japanese man showed his white teeth and threatened with a chilling smile.

"Forget it, don’t waste ti, I’ll do it."

Li Ang supported Katerina’s slender waist, moved her aside, and then walked straight up to the opening.
