Chapter 399 Why Are You So Anxious?
The Void Beast, which was restrained by other members of the Red Team, had heard the sound of thorns breaking through the air, but as its legs and feet were restrained by various spells, it had no time to dodge. All it heard was a series of popping sounds, and the Void Beast was pierced by the thorns, almost turning into a hedgehog.
After a wail, the Void Beast fell to the ground with a bang.
The stadium was silent for a moment, and then broke into unprecedented cheers.
"Bobby!"
The sandworm also fell to the ground with a loud bang, raising a cloud of yellow sand. Lilith then jumped down from it, but suddenly called Bobby's name.
The young man was already covered in wounds from repeated close combat with the Void Beast. He had no time to receive treatment, and like everyone else he just covered his wounds with sand and continued to fight. Now he looked like a clay figurine, and when he heard Lilith's call, he looked over in a daze.
The cheers from outside had nothing to do with the players. Lilith had no smile on her face. She just raised her hand and touched her sword with blood, and flames ignited on the blood.
She handed the sword to Bobby.
"It's still alive." Lilith looked at her friend in front of her.
"Go."
The wind and sand were raging, and Bobby suddenly felt that he could not see clearly. Only the fire was burning in front of him. After a moment of silence, he took the flaming sword and walked towards the bound Void Beast.
The caltrops nourished by the blood of sandworms flashed with a cold light, and turned into a dirty purple-red color when they passed through the body of the Void Beast. The Void Beast seemed to have no idea what it meant to stop. When it saw people approaching, it was still struggling to bite, making a "crunching" sound from its mouth.
That sound appeared in Bobby's dreams almost every night, and the scene at this moment also appeared in his dreams countless times...
Without keeping his friends waiting for long, he raised the scorching blade high and chopped off the Void Beast's head.
"laugh--"
The blazing sword blade cut into the flesh of the void beast with a terrifying sound, and the huge head fell off. After rolling twice in the sand, it turned into black smoke and dissipated just as it appeared...
The next moment, countless fireworks shot up from the edge of the viewing platform and flew over Goletia! They were more dazzling than ever before!
"The players of the Red Team have successfully defeated the Void Beast through unremitting efforts. Extra 100 points! Let us congratulate the brave ones!" Instructor Hurst showed a genuine smile on his face. Very good, these children have done a great job, and are even getting better!
"Oh, the time is almost up, other teams should hurry up." With the reminder from Instructor Hurst, everyone who had long forgotten the time looked up at the huge magic hourglass above.
The light above was almost dried up, and the game time was about to end. Although the Yellow Team and the White Team tried hard to pick up tumbleweeds while the Red Team was fighting, and cooperated to kill the Blue Team, their luck was a bit bad. They neither got any big rewards nor had any chance to fight to the death to defeat the Void Beast. The gap between them and the Red Team was like a chasm.
As everyone in the stadium counted down, Lilith walked to the edge of the stadium closest to Catherine and Leila and waved at them excitedly.
"She's doing something weird again..." Leila muttered, and complained to Princess Catherine about Lilith's self-proclaimed handsome greeting gesture. She didn't know who she learned it from, but she would put her fingers on the tip of her eyebrows and point them in their direction. This made Leila feel embarrassed, but she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth and quickly hid them in her leather collar.
But Giselle and Aryan, who also saw her actions, looked even weirder.
"Aryan..." The aloof Giselle took the initiative to talk to the elf next to her for the first time today.
"--Tell me, is it possible... that the Mother Goddess left offspring on earth..." Her tone was vague, and what she said made Aryan jump up in shock.
The audience in the back row was unhappy again: "Hey, you're blocking me——"
"Shut up!" Aryan didn't want to tolerate these people anymore. He stuffed the dagger into the man's mouth behind him like lightning and pressed down his tongue.
The poor noble behind him was stunned for a moment before he realized what the cold thing was. He rolled his eyes and choked himself to death. Only then did the female companion beside him scream.
There was chaos around Aryan, but fortunately, the game time was finally over and the players were teleported out. Amid Hurst's commentary, the scene welcomed a new round of cheers. The chaos on his side was completely suppressed and was not noticed by anyone else.
The nobles valued their lives the most. Some of them tried to escape from the mob by crawling, but they saw a flash of green light around them, and then their eyes went dark and they lost consciousness.
Catherine, who was originally chatting and laughing with Leila, seemed to sense the elemental fluctuations coming from behind her, and she turned her head -
Everything was normal in the stands. Everyone was cheering for the winner and clapping their hands until they turned red. The princess did not notice anything unusual. She turned her head again and waved and smiled at Lilith who was walking around the field.
………………
"Why are you crazy?"
Giselle promptly controlled the situation, used some small spells to block the sight of others, and then dragged the out-of-control Aryan away from the arena and questioned him.
The night elves have always been low-key and secretive, and always take action only after being fully prepared. But just now, Aryan took out his weapon directly in the crowd, and almost caused panic among the human group.
"If the Knights of Light are on high alert because of this, get back here." Giselle had originally planned to go to Highgarden to investigate, but now she was annoyed by the inexplicable noise he made, and she might have to lie low.
"It's obviously you who's crazy!" Aryan was furious at this moment, "What crazy things did you just say?! That's... that's blasphemy!"
"...The Mother Goddess never said anything about blasphemy." Giselle said calmly.
"Then you can't make that kind of guess! That's nonsense!" Aryan was furious. "Your imagination is admirable!"
"Then why are you in such a hurry?" Guisher's eyes under the brim of his hat looked like glass against the backdrop of snow.
