Chapter Fifty-Seven: Rogers the Generous
Alice didn't answer Rogers' question immediately, but looked up into the distance with a solemn face.
Blasphemous and distorted shapes and symbols still wriggled and slid across the canopy, and the vegetation in the surrounding woods did not riot as before, and no monsters escaped from the forest.
Because everyone present did not speak, everything seemed extremely silent, and a strange atmosphere was inexplicably diffused.
"The presence of monitoring and scoring in this competition has authority related to the game.
So for Him, the act of play we do can be called a sacrifice for Him.
"Under normal circumstances, all the victories and defeats we offer will be expelled or rewarded by the established rules.
"But those people are not contestants, especially since they are also believers in the gods of the bottomless pit, which is extremely contrary to the position of this being.
"Your act of killing them is like letting this being forcibly swallow a slug alive, with consequences that no one can know about.
"For now, though, the basic rules of the game are still working, and the being will continue to perform his duties as a referee until the winner is born.
"But there are already unforeseen dangers here, and for the sake of safety, I hope you can leave the race quickly."
Alice slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the members of the Harvesters who had been provoked by the spikes of the ground, all of whom had been reduced to empty shells, except for Melusie, who was still dying and still alive.
Her expression was extremely serious, and she slowly explained to Rutgers.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to." Rogers said with shame.
According to the assumption, his deliberate behavior of finding fault was enough to make the game spirit of the Discord Abyss appear, could it be because of the blessed aura on his body that he did not dare to come out?
[Inform! Because of your actions, the spirit of the game of the Discord Abyss casts a look of disgust and wariness at you. 】
Rogus stared at the message in the box and let out a deep sigh.
Although the Abyss of Discord is the opposite of the bottomless pit, because they belong to the same fallen camp, the spirit of the game itself cannot cause any harm to him who is currently blessed by the gods.
Originally, as long as the other party appeared, he went through a set of processes a little, and this drama should be over.
"Him? Authority? Could it be that our referee is a god?! Eunice's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard Alice's explanation.
"Yes and no, whether this being can be called a god or not depends on the way you evaluate it.
"But no matter what, he's not something you can handle, so get out of the competition and go back to school." Alice's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes revealed a pleading.
"As you said, He will not appear until the final victor is born, but if he is born, will he have to face Him?" Eunice's face became extremely ugly, and when she saw Alice, who was silent, she glared at Rogus fiercely:
"This is the guy who broke in! Why let the saint bear the unpredictable consequences?! It would be better to leave him where he is and bear the wrath of that being! ”
"Not bad! I agree with Eunice's proposal! Rutgers's eyes shone with determination, and he stepped forward with determination, like a knight ready to be generous:
"The reason why I didn't get rid of the cultist wearing the rabbit mask was because I wanted to leave someone for the school to interrogate the confession.
"It's a pity that there is no chance depending on the situation, now leave her to bear the punishment of the gods with me, you should go back to school quickly."
Eunice didn't expect Rogers to be so responsible.
Her expression froze, her mouth slightly open, and she almost forgot to breathe, as if her originally solid ideas had suddenly suffered an unprecedented shock.
Delick's eyes were red, he gritted his teeth, and took the initiative to say, "I'm willing to stay until the end and repay the chief for his previous help to me!" ”
"No! I said, you have to go first, it's not something you can handle! Alice's words had a smack of non-questionability, refuting these decisions that she considered to be absurd.
Eunice seems to have been infected by this atmosphere, and even made a suggestion that she could stay.
Several people began to fight against each other over this topic, their words intertwined and collided in the air, and they expressed their will uncompromisingly and resolutely.
Alina observed the argument between these people, and sympathy flowed between her brows, sympathizing with their enthusiasm was only the result of the foolery of a hypocritical person.
She and Rogers looked at each other, then raised their slender fingers, and a powerful magical force quickly condensed on her fingertips, blooming into a blinding light.
Before the three people on the other side could react, a violent magic turbulence burst out in an instant, carrying a raging wind that swept towards them abruptly.
The trees around them were whirling and swaying helplessly, as if they might be pulled to the ground by this powerful force at any moment.
The ground in front of him was kicked up with dust and mud, leaving a colorful and broken scar.
[Alice activates the Necro Bonus, with her as the center, the magic power within ten meters will be forcibly erased.] 】
With the activation of the bonus, the magic power of Aliana's fingertips dissipated in an instant, and even she herself caused a certain backlash due to the forced interruption of the spell, only to feel dizzy and almost unsteady on her feet.
"Why spell all the magic? You don't want to send Alice back with you, do you? Rogers stretched out his arm and hugged Alina, who was on the verge of falling, and asked helplessly.
Alice's [Death Bonus] is very strong, but it has an extremely long cooldown, and he asked Alina to find an opportunity to help ban this headache bonus of the other party, but he didn't say that he wanted to do it to such an extent.
Just this destructive power visible to the naked eye is enough to suppress ordinary bronze high-level magicians.
"So what?" Alina struggled to pace her breathing, her eyes fixed on the slowly clearing smoke.
The original Drake and Eunice were gone, leaving Alice standing quietly on the messy ground, her slightly pale face glowing with helplessness.
"If it's a normal duel......" Alina muttered as if in defense with a look of disappointment.
She turned her head to look at Rogers, the arm that was being supported slowly left, and then took the other party's palm, interlocked her fingers with her, and said seriously, "I'll wait for you to come back." ”
Rogers caught a glimpse of the worry in the girl's eyes, and replied with the same seriousness: "I said before the start of the game, it's not a big problem, it's just a false god." ”
Alina smiled reassuringly, grabbed the academy badge in her other hand, and after pouring some magic power, her figure disappeared into the light.
