Chapter 413 Is this right, senior?
"Huh, what a smug face." Hurst muttered quietly, and then turned his attention back to the competition field. "So as your student, what is she doing, Rebecca?"
Looking from a high place, the girl who was being chased by the insect ball in the sand was dragging something off her body and throwing it away as she ran.
It's a sandbag.
These were the heavy iron blocks that Lilith had tied to her hands and feet every day since first grade, and she never took them off except to take a bath or sleep. Now, because it was difficult to run on the sand, she finally tore off the heavy burdens and threw them on the sand with a muffled sound. Her legs instantly felt an unprecedented freedom.
It was as if she was no longer awake and bound by gravity, but could move in any direction as lightly as a bird. This lightness spread from the soles of her feet to her whole body, making Lilith want to run and jump loudly, and even made her laugh heartily during the tense moment when she was chased by the man-eating ants.
The encirclement of the White Team in front was about to close. The Void Beast was being attacked from both sides, and its strength was being weakened bit by bit. This was an extremely critical moment. Suddenly, someone in the team changed his expression and pointed behind a teammate.
A girl was running towards them at high speed with a strange smile on her face, and behind her was a huge black sphere that was rumbling and rolling.
"Oh, she's going to rush in!" Instructor Hurst shouted excitedly, and the audience at the scene also became excited!
"——Lilith?!" Someone in the white team shouted in surprise. Lilith looked closely and saw that it was the enthusiastic senior Hall whom they met on the way to Shadow Locke! Lilith bent down and slid hard on the sand, suddenly twisted her body, and ran towards him.
Senior Hall’s face turned green—“Don’t come over here, ahhhhh!”
"Senior!" Lilith smiled brightly, but behind her were a sky full of man-eating ants. "Didn't you say that I would ask you for help if I had any trouble?"
——Traitor! ! The White Team instantly focused their attention on Hall, almost piercing him.
"I mean when we were in Shadow Locke!" Senior Hall was sweating instantly and wanted to explain immediately. His partner reacted quickly and rushed towards him directly. The force was so great that Senior Hall flew out and fell flat on the sand, but he also avoided the huge man-eating ant ball rolling behind Lilith.
However, although they avoided the man-eating ants, the front line that they had been trying to close for a long time was torn apart. The Void Beast took the opportunity to dodge and rush towards the gap in Lilith's defense line!
"Hall!"
Lilith successfully diverted the trouble, not only passing the anteater to the White Team, but also successfully interrupting the White Team's rhythm of eliminating the Void Beast. She was afraid of drawing the White Team's hatred to her, so she didn't dare to stop for a moment, and ran a long way before she dared to look back at the battle situation on the White Team's side.
Poor senior Hall unfortunately became the next target of the Void Beast. The Void Beast had suffered a lot of injuries from the magic attack and was covered in purple-red blood. However, the Anteater had no interest in it and only chased after the humans on the field and tore them apart. It was simply the best teammate of the Void Beast. Taking this opportunity, it jumped high with the power of its tail and pounced on Hall.
Fortunately, his guardian reacted quickly and acted almost at the same time as the Void Beast. At the moment when their figures intersected, Lilith saw silver light and blood light flash at the same time.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak—!”
The Void Beast let out a violent cry in pain. A deep wound was cut on its neck and purple-black blood was dripping. But on the other side, Hall's guardian was in an even worse situation. His arm was completely cut open by the Void Beast's sharp claws and flew directly into the sky. He staggered a few steps and fell backwards. Before he could say anything, the man-eating ants attracted by the bloody smell had rushed over and swallowed him. A white light flashed, and he was eliminated like Lucas!
"T-T-S-!" Hall let out a cry of pain when he saw this.
"Hiss..." Lilith admitted, her conscience aching a little.
Then she saw Senior Hall used levitation to catch his guardian's arm while crying, and then shouted to the others, "Hurry, there's still some blood in here. I'll shake it out to lure the man-eating ants away, and you guys continue!"
Lilith: …………
Wait, is this how you use a partner, Senior? Is this correct?!
Senior Hall was seen controlling his partner's remaining limbs to move away from the encirclement, leading the man-eating ants away and creating a better fighting environment for his teammates. Whenever the man-eating ants wanted to swim to the side, he would squeeze them to get some fresh blood. The man-eating ants were brushed by him like a donkey with a carrot hanging on its face.
"Hiss, what an unparalleled imagination - cough cough cough, but dear audience!" Instructor Hester looked at the complicated expressions on the audience's faces and decided that he had to save their image of Goletia. "We usually don't treat students like this. Please rest assured to leave your children to us. This is an exception, an exception!"
As he said this, Senior Hall swung the bleeding stump towards Lilith, trying to retaliate.
Lilith hurriedly used magic to resist. The two of them used magic to wrestle with each other, neither of them willing to take on this hot potato. Looking at the hand in the air that was squeezed almost bloodless and almost completely white, she suddenly had an idea and thought of a possibility -
"Senior, you were the ones who went to Teacher Wanda to ask for snake venom yesterday, right?"
"...Don't talk nonsense, Lilith. We are in a green competition, and we are not taking drugs!" Senior Hall said righteously, "We just didn't know the rules of the competition before, and thought we could use auxiliary potions."
——Tsk, Lilith's face wrinkled like an old man on the subway looking at his phone. One wanted to consume a few years of the magician's life to strengthen his physique, and the other used the guardian's severed hand as bait. You two are worthy of being partners, each of you is more wicked than the other, and each of you doesn't treat the other as a human being!
The screams of the Void Beast were getting weaker and weaker, and it seemed that it was about to be solved. Lilith's eyes flashed with anxiety. If the White Team also took these 100 points, their advantage would be gone.
"Senior Hall." Lilith continued the tug-of-war with Senior Hall, and kept talking, "Nothing is difficult in the world as long as you are willing to give up."
"You wish, little girl!" Senior Hall tried hard to push away his stump, "If you want to win the championship, wait until I graduate!"
He tried not to look at his partner's livid face, but he didn't see that his guardian was frantically pounding on the light curtain that separated the stadium with one hand, constantly lip-syncing to him. If Senior Hall had good eyesight, he would probably have seen that what Titus said was -
Behind!
However, he only saw the little girl confronting him smiling again.
There were sounds of rapid footsteps coming from behind.
"Hall, you idiot--!" Along with his partner Titus's silent curse, Hall only heard the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air behind him, and then appeared outside the arena, staring at Titus.
"You didn't even take my hand out! You asshole!!!"
