Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop Won't Boot

What's happening now: So, the laptop won't boot up at all, but the keyboard backlight flashes slowly when I try turning it on. It seems like it will just keep flashing on and off like that all day if I let it. I'm guessing that's some kind of an error message, but I have no idea what it means.

I just got it about 40 days ago and it was still like new. However, I should admit it was in a bag with a water bottle which leaked, but I didn't think enough water had gotten in it to cause damage. I have also used it for a couple days after the water bottle incident with no problems. Until now.

Here's the laptop on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y4GZS9C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I also read there's been some BIOS issues people have had with symptoms like this: https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/533825/windows-update-stuck-on-please-wait-while-we-install-a-system-update-message/

So, is this probably that BIOS issue or is it likely water damage? And is there any way I could fix this myself or should I bring it to a repair shop or try sending it back?

I need help myself.
My predator 300 is stuck on the predator sign booting up.
And when you switch it off forcefully enough it goes to automatic repair thing
I know this is where I can get stuff done. But here's the catch there is just a cursor no ***** advanced options to click on and do something about it. Basically stuck on a giaaant loop
