Chapter 135 5 minute
However, the situation was not bad only this time. On the other side of the battlefield, someone encountered a trap in the chaos. The scare box was crushed by the terrain, and black fog immediately enveloped the area. A second void beast condensed in the fog. There was no interference from the cave ogres here, so it immediately rushed towards the crowd and started its hunt. The crowd immediately fell into chaos, with spells flying everywhere.
"What, what is this? What the hell is this..." The students in the back row of Lilith turned pale with fear, and Lilith lost her spirit of entertainment. Anyone with a little combat experience could see that this monster was too powerful and fast. Anyone who was hit by it would be eliminated if they were lucky, and those who were unlucky would be ripped open and eaten twice before they could get out. This was simply a one-sided massacre of the contestants...
"Are you idiots? Use magic! Guardians, think about your mission!" Hurst finally couldn't stand it anymore, stood up and shouted loudly to the audience with a megaphone, "It's too fast, use large-scale magic!"
But large-scale magic requires a longer chanting time. Seeing the students on the field falling one by one, the remaining people finally united to organize an attack. The guardians tried their best to stand in front to buy time for the magician, but... it was too fast, it was too fast... The magician and the guardians still fell one by one under its claws.
The sky was changing color, and in the clear day, the stars suddenly shone in the sky. The magician who occupied a hill was gradually exhausted after chanting rapidly in the intervals between monsters attacking others. Blood flowed from her mouth and nose. This was a sign of mental exhaustion, but she could only hold on as she watched her classmates being disemboweled. A bright blue complex magic circle finally lit up under its feet, and blue streamers appeared out of thin air in mid-air, falling rapidly towards the Void Beast with a blue tail!
"It's the Falling Star Spell." Lulu whispered, "I saw her use it when I was watching the seniors train. It's said to be a very advanced spell. Only with a very deep understanding of astrology can one get a response from the power of the stars."
"Boom--" The stream of light was like a spear piercing down from the sky, suddenly piercing through the flesh of the Void Beast. The magic power seemed to have a corrosive effect on it. Its flesh no longer solidified as quickly as when it was just cut by a sword. Instead, it made a sizzling sound, causing it to let out a sharp roar.
"Success! We hit him!" The guardian next to the senior observed the monster's condition, turned back to look at his partner excitedly, but his expression suddenly changed -
Behind the pale and crumbling partner, another identical monster had been silently approaching, preparing for an ambush. When it saw that it had been discovered, it jumped up from the ground and aimed its sharp mouthparts at the magician's fragile neck. The senior student only saw the sudden change in her partner's face in her blurred vision. The next second, she felt a pain in her neck and found herself in the preparation area on the sidelines. The school doctors threw all kinds of healing spells and potions at her.
It turned out that in the corner where no one was paying attention, even though the White Team showed calm and decisive wisdom, they were still powerless to resist when facing a powerful opponent they had never seen before. After just a few encounters, they were completely wiped out. The first Void Beast that appeared lost its prey, so it turned and headed towards the crowd. After eliminating the magician who used the Falling Star Spell, it headed towards the guardian next to it. The guardian tried hard to roll and dodge, but he only held on for a few more seconds. In the end, he was still eliminated miserably.
The Void Beast lost its prey target again. It seemed very angry. It stood on the hill and howled to the sky again. The sharp and strange sound was extremely creepy. Suddenly - its body began to become unstable, and particle-like black mist began to evaporate on its body. It howled unwillingly, but in the blink of an eye it turned into black mist again and disappeared on the spot.
The situation was similar for the other one. After eliminating the last student on the field, it rushed towards the edge of the stadium. Although there was a magic barrier blocking it, the students sitting in the lower row screamed subconsciously. Fortunately, it did not last longer than its peers. Before it touched the border, it turned into black mist and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In the entire arena, there was no living creature except the underwater watcher that had lost most of its tentacles and curled up to the bottom of the pond. There were still eight minutes left before the stipulated half-hour game time. It seemed that no one had expected the game to have such a direction and intensity, and the entire audience was silent.
"…The game is over." Seeing that Instructor Hurst was depressed by the performance of his students, Rebecca calmly announced the result at the commentary desk. "There is no winner in this round."
"Five minutes." With a click, the fat teacher who had first praised Cynthia closed his pocket watch. "This box lasts much shorter than ordinary scare boxes. Five minutes seems to be the limit."
"Of the four teams, excluding the three people who were eliminated at the beginning due to other factors, the remaining thirty-seven people... couldn't last more than five minutes under the hands of the two void beasts..." He sighed and shook his head, turned his head to look at his colleagues, and said rationally, "That female student Wang actually taught us a good lesson, didn't she?"
Colin was speechless for a long time after listening, and then turned and left. The students on the viewing platform also began to disperse. The dwarves needed time to clean up the battlefield, as the next game would not start until the afternoon.
Inside the Rose Building, the student union held an impromptu meeting during the lunch break.
"This competition is much bloodier than I imagined. Those monsters are so scary. Do we really not need to lower the difficulty, Catherine? Several first-year students were scared to tears." A member sighed with lingering fear. Who could have thought that they would suddenly have to face the intestines of their seniors...
"The rewards for the competition are very generous, but high rewards come with high risks." Catherine smiled gently at the student union officer, but her tone was firm. "They are just participating in the competition for the first time and have no experience. I believe that the seniors who come after them will sum up their experience and get better results."
"…As for the competition system, based on everyone's opinions, if no one wins each game, then the points they get in the game will be recorded, and the winner will be determined by ranking based on the points. We need people to record the points for each game. Is anyone willing to help?" She glanced at everyone and automatically ignored Lilith who was dozing off in her chair.
Fortunately, everyone was very enthusiastic about work and raised their hands. Catherine pointed to a few people and began to assign working time and sessions to them.
"Knock knock." A crisp knock on the door sounded, and everyone turned around. It was Professor Colin. He looked at the boys and girls in the room full of vitality and energy, all looking at him with innocence, and the frost on his face melted a little.
"Catherine, please come here."
