One-Eyed Monster-Chapter 549 - 546: The Unknown Igor (Middle)

Everyone almost choked when they heard Igor's words. It was such an obvious thing to say. Everyone knew that the sun would slowly melt the snow...

"Once the snow melts, we can't build snowmen anymore... something we never wanted to happen when we were kids..."

Like a fool, Igor blurted out another silly sentence, oblivious to the growing annoyance his words were causing in the others.

Pointless words always leave an uncomfortable feeling, no matter how sweetly spoken; they just sound redundant.

"So, let's just melt all the snow!" Kadi seemed to understand something and hurriedly chimed in with Igor.

This time, even Igor found Kadi's statement a little too nonsensical. It was so outrageous that even Igor felt compelled to sidestep it. Everyone knew that the snow would melt once the sun came out, but summoning the sun wasn't as easy as just saying it.

"While Kadi's suggestion is good, it's not without its flaws. So let's put it aside for now and tidy up the surroundings." With Kadi's interruption, Igor was at a loss as to what to say and could only manage to suggest tidying up the area, though even he didn't know what exactly he meant by "tidying up."

The others looked at Igor with a mixture of confusion and helplessness.

This Igor wasn't just full of pointless questions; he also kept churning out redundant statements that seemed to lead people astray.

"Actually, I think if we clean up the surroundings, there won't be any snowmen..." Kadi always managed to catch the crux of what Igor was saying. He saw things in Igor that other people couldn't, almost as if Kadi could read his mind.

As for Igor, he was oblivious to how annoying he was being.

He always felt his statements were well-founded, derived from careful observation. While his points might seem trivial, he believed they possessed an underlying logic when examined closely.

For instance, he had been going around in circles just to express his confusion.

His confusion was straightforward: given how slowly the snowmen formed, why wait until they were complete before attacking? Why not strike at the very instant they began to materialize?

He had tried to explain his idea using the example of building a snowman knight, but unfortunately, Kadi cut him off. Now he didn't know how to proceed with his explanation.

His initial train of thought had been complete and quite logical. And it's all Kadi's fault...

To the others, Igor seemed like a ticking time bomb. They never knew when he would start talking again and then go on and on...

In truth, the others didn't really know Igor. They weren't sure what made this young man so extraordinary. Although he seemed to always be there during critical moments, which could have been dismissed as coincidences, there were simply too many of them.

Igor seemed like an enigma to the others. He was a complete unknown!

No one knew where this young man came from or who his mentors were...

Nor did many know just how powerful this young man named Igor was...

Nobody knew how this young man had ended up on Guru Mountain...

All these things seemed to indicate that Igor was an extraordinary person...

But was that really the case?

No one could say for sure. Right now, Igor was an unknown entity to them. Nevertheless, this unknown Igor had been consistently helping them overcome one difficulty after another.

Putting other things aside, just consider the last two incidents. When they were engulfed by a vast ocean, who led them out? Clearly, it was Igor. How did he do it? Obviously, they didn't know.

When the sea raged, it was Igor who calmed everyone down.

And when Kevin was being tormented by the creature from the Alternate World, wasn't it Igor who led the team, using Lightning, to Tame that monster...

That monster was now in the possession of the Sol Family... Igor had no clue how the Sol Family members had managed to contain it, especially since they didn't seem to have much baggage.

Igor believed that Stan Sol must have used the Concealment Spell to hide these things, but the others disagreed.

Igor always had all sorts of peculiar ideas, but they didn't always turn out to be useful.

However, Igor felt that if he didn't voice these ideas, he wouldn't be able to live with himself.

His restless heart demanded action. If he had an idea and didn't test it, he would never be satisfied.

Moreover, Igor firmly believed that his ideas would work!

"I was just thinking, why can't we start a big fire on that snowfield? Once that fire gets going, can these snowmen still approach?"

Igor suggested his idea in a roundabout way, a rare display of flexibility. Having spent time with these seniors, he had learned a thing or two, not least of which was this adaptability.

"You mean, set up a Firewall?"

Once Igor made his suggestion, everyone started discussing it.

"I think this method is viable. Once the Firewall is established, these snowmen won't be able to approach."

"Fire could save us a lot of our Spirit Power."

"This way, even if some slip through, they'll still be within our control."

"As it happens, Sol has a flame..."

As the discussion concluded, all eyes turned to Stan Sol.

"I... can... do it!" Stan Sol announced confidently.

Then, a dazzling fire appeared before the snowmen. If the snowmen were conscious, they would surely be stunned at this point...

What in the world? Where did this fire come from? And why is it so audacious...?

The audacious fire soon took complete control, enveloping the snowmen entirely...

"See, just like I said! Look, the snowmen can't even form anymore. This fire is so powerful!" Igor was dancing with excitement; clearly, the fire had proven his point.

The snowmen couldn't get up anymore. The roaring flames were rapidly melting the snow on the ground where they had stood.

What was with Igor this time? Was his luck simply off the charts, allowing him to pinpoint the enemy's vital weakness and overcome them in one decisive blow?

Did he just get really lucky, or had he anticipated this all along?
