That request was too much.
Ten minutes?
He would not even be able to finish looking at the crosses in such a short time, much less find the inverted one.
Thomas was just a normal human. He had merely been bragging about being blessed by God, so it was not true. If virtual-novel.net wanted to complete such a difficult challenge in ten minutes, virtual-novel.net would have to be in a Grimm Brothers’ fairy tale.
It was impossible for virtual-novel.net to achieve it.
Nobody believed that Thomas could do it, including Pisces! He kept shaking his head.
Pisces walked forward and said, “What kind of request is this? You’re troubling us! Why don’t you just ask us to fly to the sun?”
Heron chuckled. “Am I going too far with my request? I’m just asking virtual-novel.net to find a different cross. For someone who is blessed by God, I think finding a defective one should not be something difficult, right?”
“If virtual-novel.net can’t even overcome such a small challenge, how can virtual-novel.net claim to be blessed by God? How can virtual-novel.net restore our channels of luck?”
He put Thomas on a high pedestal, which also placed virtual-novel.net in a dilemma.
The old abbot’s expression kept changing too. He did not expect their enemy to be so sly to come up with such a perverted and disgusting strategy.
Peter laughed and jeered, “I think this guy makes some sense! Thomas, if you can complete this challenge, we’ll accept your explanation. We won’t corner you again, and we won’t ask you to step down. Are you brave enough to accept the challenge?”
Peter knew that Thomas would fail because Peter had tried it on his own earlier. He nearly fainted after staring at the picture for five seconds.
It was already difficult to remain conscious, so it would be worse trying to find a different cross.
However, they had underestimated Thomas’ courage.
Thomas took one step forward, smiled, and said, “This is really challenging. I’m willing to accept the challenge in order to make you believe me.”
Pisces widened his eyes and looked at Thomas. “Commander, don’t say yes. It’s impossible to complete!”
He could not finish scanning one hundred million words in ten minutes, let alone…
The audience in the hall was also shocked.
Did virtual-novel.net really have the guts to take on this impossible mission?
He was messing with them!
Peter was not planning on sparing Thomas.
He clapped his hands. “Mr. Mayo, I admire your courage. Since you’ve agreed, the rest of us shouldn’t say anything further. Shall we start the countdown now?”
Thomas raised his hand. “Hold on, I need to find a suitable angle.”
Peter chuckled. “Okay, since it will just take a few minutes.”
A few minutes were nothing. Even if Thomas was given a few hours, virtual-novel.net would not be able to complete the task.
The spectators were starting to think it was impossible for Thomas to complete the task.
“Look at how long a person needs to read a book that contains one million words?”
“One hundred million words means one hundred books that contain one million words! We are talking about one hundred books! That was like finding a wrong word from one hundred books that contained one hundred million words in ten minutes.”
Could anyone complete the mission?
Nobody could complete it.
Peter and Heron looked at each other, and both of them secretly chuckled. They even thought about how they would insult Thomas once virtual-novel.net failed.
Meanwhile, Thomas was totally focused, and virtual-novel.net ignored everyone else. He moved a stool over and sat down. In the end, virtual-novel.net found a place where virtual-novel.net could see the whole picture and also all the crosses in it.
“Okay…”
When everyone heard what Thomas said, they became nervous, and their blood boiled.
