“That book! Attack that book quickly!”
As the monster’s flesh was torn apart, the strange Holy Scripture appeared before everyone, and Wei Er immediately ordered the others with excitement as if she had discovered something.
For monsters created by the forces of the Evil God, no matter how strong their recovery ability was, as long as the source of their corruption was destroyed, their demise was inevitable.
Now was the best opportunity.
The calm students did not disappoint her expectations, as countless dazzling spells were unleashed simultaneously, showering the massive creature as if they were free.
But after the brief excitement, as the chaotic air currents and glow from the spells dissipated, Wei Er felt her body gradually grow cold.
It was useless.
Even with over a hundred magicians present, capable of launching simultaneous spells, the target being that Holy Scripture was still too small compared to the massive body of the monster.
Moreover, it wasn’t just small; if it were just small, under the barrage of encompassing magic, it would eventually be struck.
However, that Holy Scripture seemed to possess its own awareness, continuously shifting its position within the monster’s massive flesh, evading magical attacks.
“Something’s off; something isn’t right.”
Clearly, it was a favorable situation with the monster cornered, yet Wei Er felt an unsettling anxiety that made her body involuntarily tremble.
This was her intuition.
And her intuition had always been very accurate.
Something bad was definitely about to happen, or rather… it had already happened.
“We can’t drag this on any longer!”
Wei Er smacked the high platform railing in front of her and gritted her teeth as she asked the warriors who had already retreated to the side.
“Which of you still has the energy to rush up there and destroy that Holy Scripture? I will arrange magical cover.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Er felt dozens of incredulous gazes directed at her.
Rush up there?
Look at that monster; it’s so terrifying!
You want us to rush up there?
Is that a death wish?
And even if there was magical cover, who knew what kind of adverse effects rushing into that mass of flesh would cause?
What if we too were corrupted by the Evil God and turned into muscle-bound brothers who only like men?
“This… sigh.”
Wei Er clenched her fist so tightly that the knuckles turned pale.
She certainly understood these people’s concerns, but some things had to be done by someone. If she weren’t just a specialized mage, she might have already rushed out.
Unfortunately, she was neither a warrior, nor did she have the right to force others to go to their deaths.
So at such times, she felt extremely powerless.
If only the president were here.
If the president were here, this monster would probably have been dealt with already!
“Help me up, I can still go!”
Just as Wei Er’s thoughts were about to drift away, she suddenly heard someone shout. Hope blossomed in her eyes, like seeing a brilliant light in deep darkness.
Then she looked up and saw Ariel, wrapped up like a dumpling on a stretcher.
She was struggling fiercely, her expression fierce; even though her hands were bound by bandages and she couldn’t even hold a sword, she looked like she wanted to get up and battle that monster once again.
“No, Ariel.”
Lia leaned next to her, pressing her down firmly on the stretcher, tears welling in her eyes as she said,
“You’re already so severely injured; you can’t go again.”
“No!”
Ariel’s face was filled with anger: “The beauty hasn’t been found; she might still be there. I have to save her.”
“She may have just retreated with another team. You don’t need to worry, Ariel.”
“Even so, I want to kill that bald guy. I want to chop him into thousands and thousands of pieces, then burn him to ashes, and toss those ashes around. How dare he call me flat-chested!”
Ariel’s eyes burned with anger: “Am I flat? Lia, do you think I’m flat? I still have some if I squeeze a bit! Rounding up just a bit, isn’t a B cup reasonable? How can he dare to open his eyes and lie?”
“…”
“Hey, Lia, say something!”
“…”
Wei Er silently shifted her gaze away.
There was no way she could let Ariel Bugarde rush up at this moment.
Not only because of her current injuries but also because it was obvious to anyone with eyes that she was the number one contributor to this hostage rescue operation.
The first to rush to the rooftop, the first to confront the enemy’s leader, and pushed the enemy’s leader into a corner.
By the time the elite members of the student council rushed up, the muscle men on the rooftop had already been largely cleared away, and the so-called High Priest was also in a severely injured state.
All this was completely unlike that of second years.
Had it not been for the High Priest’s unexpected transformation, the incident would likely have already concluded.
Although they also didn’t know where the hostage had escaped to.
But now wasn’t the time to think about that.
“Indeed, is my ability still not enough?”
That unsettling feeling became more and more real.
It was as if malevolence from an unknown source was licking at her body, making Wei Er feel nauseous to the point of almost vomiting.
“I wish a hero would arrive.”
In the face of helplessness, Wei Er habitually started to fantasize again.
Just like those novels she read, at a critical moment of despair for everyone, a handsome hero would descend from the sky, then…
“All eyes on me—”
Indeed, it looked like that dashing guy jumping down from the dormitory.
Hmm?
Dashing guy?
Where did this handsome guy come from?
Wei Er looked up in surprise.
Shua—
At that moment, the first-year students who were acting as lighting technicians in the back, unable to help, professionally moved the searchlights, focusing like a spotlight on that figure soaring downwards.
“I’m about to show off!”
Accompanied by an incredibly clear shout in the silent night, that conspicuous figure in the spotlight suddenly plummeted from the high building.
Towards the savage monster.
Just then, a spell pierced through the monster’s flesh, revealing the Holy Scripture that had just shifted position.
There was nowhere to escape!
Mu’en laughed heartily, violently plunging his horse-slaying sword into the Holy Scripture.
The monster roared madly, then shrieked, countless twisted bodies contorting, yet unable to prevent death from coming.
In that moment.
The cold wind howled, blowing the man’s golden hair like the morning sun, his handsome face wearing a smile, illuminated by the light with a dazzling glow, and that smooth yet powerful muscular silhouette made one think of the sculptures from renowned masters housed in the Empire’s exhibition hall, perfectly stunning.
“So handsome.”
Many girls experiencing the beginnings of feelings were drawn to the golden-haired man’s extraordinary handsomeness, unable to refrain from gasping in awe.
Even Wei Er couldn’t help but become entranced, thinking, is this really the hero who descends from the skies?
……
Only, amidst the brief silence caused by everyone’s gaze being drawn to this man, a first-year girl suddenly voiced a question as innocent as a child.
So clear in the night.
“But—”
“Why isn’t he wearing any clothes?”
