…
Dark ruins.
The door above the altar hummed.
Well-armed soldiers are arriving here through the secret passage.
They are well trained.
Upon arrival.
Then he began to arrange his formation.
Not long.
The soldiers surrounded the altar.
As for that door.
It was completely blocked.
The girl looked at everyone present with a smile.
She was just about to say something.
But suddenly.
An angry roar came from the darkness:
"How dare you trespass into my territory?!"
Accompanied by this roar.
A huge steel dragon head that almost occupied 1/3 of Roger's vision sank out of thin air!
At that time.
The ancient steel dragon opened its bloody mouth.
A stream of orange-red flame spurted out of his mouth.
In the blink of an eye, the metal ruins outside the altar were melted into liquid!
But his flames did not cause much damage to the soldiers near the altar.
Because the rag doll-like girl has already taken action!
In an instant.
A series of colorful barriers as bright as starlight rose up on the spot.
The altar and the soldiers were enveloped in it.
The steel dragon's dragon flame swept past.
But it failed to hurt them at all!
…
"The lizard really isn't very smart."
There was a hint of coldness in the girl's eyes :
"This territory is only loaned to you temporarily."
"Dare to stop the will of the stars..."
"Then go to hell!"
The words fell.
Starlight of different colors appeared on her body.
The starlight gathered in the girl's hands.
Soon it turned into weapons of various types!
And the other side.
The Steel Dragon showed no sign of weakness.
He shook the huge dragon head angrily.
Launched an indiscriminate AOE on everyone present:
"I……"
"He is the master!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Dragon flames like a volcanic eruption gushed out from the mouth of the steel dragon.
The power of this wave of dragon flame is several times higher than before!
The entire dark ruins were shaking!
whoosh!
The girl's figure disappeared from the spot.
Next second.
She quickly rose into the air above the steel dragon's head.
The two quickly started a chaotic war!
…
But the girl's actions did not affect the actions of the Star God soldiers.
They bathed in the blessing of starlight.
Locked onto Roger immediately!
In fact.
As early as the moment the girl appeared.
Roger then discovered their identities!
"They are pursuers sent by Olmodo!"
Roger's face looked a little ugly.
He knew that the star god would not sit idly by and wait for death.
But I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.
I have just been tricked by Quentin.
He was almost blown by the steel dragon's dragon flame again.
Now we have to face the Protoss soldiers with the blessing of "Starlight Barrier"!
Just talking about the fight.
Roger was naturally not afraid of these members of the God Clan.
But now his attention was evenly divided into three parts——
Ancient Steel Dragon!
A rag doll girl!
And Quentin!
The above three people are not easy to mess with!
in this case.
He no longer had much energy to spare to deal with these minions.
If the elves were allowed to perform.
I don’t know what the chances of winning are!
…
And just as Roger was observing the situation on the field.
Quentin, who had been standing low-key on the altar, suddenly smiled triumphantly.
Because the girl was not there to guard it personally.
He easily found the gap of the Star God Clan!
Next second.
He had a strange flash!
Straight past the soldiers blocking the gate.
Arrived at the secret passage door!
…
"It seems my luck is pretty good."
He stepped one foot into the secret passage leading to the top floor.
He turned around and gave Roger a sarcastic smile:
"So……"
"Goodbye, Mr. Sacrifice!"
The next moment.
He leaned slightly.
We are about to leave the dark ruins.
But it is convenient at this time.
The picture on the altar suddenly distorted wildly!
An extremely domineering force locked down everything around!
Not to mention Quentin who tried to enter the secret passage.
Even the girl and the steel dragon who were fighting fiercely in mid-air were forcibly locked by this force!
"This is……?"
Everyone looked towards the source of the power in surprise—
That's the edge of the altar.
Roger, the instigator, was holding the glowing prop in his hand with a calm expression.
But in his eyes.
There is a hint of reluctance.
on the data bar.
…
"Record: You used the item 'God's Duel Arena'!"
…
"Duel Target: Asgard Traitor Quentin"
…
"I am transforming you and your duel opponent into two-dimensional form..."
…
"Record: 'God Duel Arena' is randomly inviting judges and audience members..."
…
"The judges and audience are being transformed into two dimensions... Completed!"
…
"The third row of audience members is sitting: Natives of the Dark Crystal World (a certain number of people)"
…
"Second row of cheering group taking their seats: Mysterious Alchemist Group (number of people)"
…
"The first row of judges are taking their seats: Mystra's projection, Quinan's projection, Asgard's Lord's projection, Holy Dragon Arthur's projection, Starry Sky Ancient God's projection..."
…
"The God Duel Arena has been initialized!"
…
"Should we skip the 'warm-up session' and go straight to the ring match?"
…
In a space that gradually becomes blurred and distorted.
Roger stared sharply at Quentin who was gradually blending into the duel arena not far away.
to be honest.
Just use up the God Duel Arena like this.
He felt very painful!
But he knows.
I must stop Quentin!
This guy has a big problem.
He has tools that are powerful enough to destroy the binary stars.
Roger's intuition told him.
Quentin's intention is not just to go to the top level!
Once he succeeds.
Serious and irreversible consequences may occur!
in this regard.
Roger had no doubt about his own judgment.
Quentin is a seemingly harmless guy.
The destructive power it could cause is even greater than that of Olmodo himself!
As for the ancient steel dragon and this baby-faced little girl.
It is even more incomparable.
So he would keep it today no matter what!
"Okay..."
"Let's have a fair fight."
"Let me see the power of the Asgardian members too!"
A moment.
Roger's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
He was just about to go directly into the "ring competition session".
But at this moment.
The space around him distorted for the second time.
An unexpected change suddenly occurred that Roger had never expected!
He suddenly saw.
The steel dragon that was high above was pressed down by a huge force.
Finally landed next to Quentin.
The girl on the steel dragon's head fell in the same way.
It just fell next to Roger!
As soon as the girl landed.
He gave Roger a sinister smile.
The next moment.
She pulled out a very short dagger.
A knife stabbed into Roger's lower back.
Roger didn't dodge.
The dagger struck him hard.
But it couldn't cause any harm!
The girl immediately showed a look of astonishment.
This moment.
She began to re-examine this gradually distorted space!
And Roger.
But he had already been staring at the information flow on the data column!
…
"God Duel Arena: Fragments of the 'God Game' have been detected, and the rules of the duel have been affected..."
…
"New laws are being generated..."
…
"The new rules sound field is complete!
The current duel mode is fixed as follows:
…
2V2!
…
Red versus blue!
…
Red Team: Roger the Demon Slayer, Yona the Doll God
…
Blue Team: Quentin the Betrayer, Ancient Steel Dragon
…
Note 1: Only after defeating all members of the enemy team, can the two members of your team leave the God Duel Arena!
…
Note 2: All your attacks cannot cause damage to members of your own team!
…
Note 3: The battle mode of the ring match is a free-for-all between two teams!
Please arrange your own tactics..."
…
"Do you want to start the warm-up session?"
…
"Warm-up session has started, 5 minutes left..."
…
With the birth of new laws.
The fighting arena that was originally like a tavern suddenly turned into a relatively open dungeon.
Roger glanced twice.
It was found to be very similar to the background of Dark Ruins.
Maybe they just moved the materials from the Dark Ruins and used them here—
It's a two-dimensional world anyway.
It can save some materials.
The center of the dungeon
It was the steel dragon altar.
The door on the altar that Quentin had been longing for was already wide open.
Just don't complete the duel.
No one could get in.
Above the gate.
There are three more hanging drums.
now.
Three pairs of invisible hands are controlling and beating the big drums.
The sound of drums.
Quite enthusiastic.
It can be a rest area for the red and blue teams.
The atmosphere at this moment was somewhat stiff and cold.
…
On the blue team's side.
The Ancient Steel Dragon roared at Quentin in dissatisfaction:
"You violated the rules of sacrifice!"
"You attracted those dirty star gods!"
"I can't possibly fight alongside a traitor like you!"
Quentin shrugged grimly.
The only thing he had eyes for was the door leading to the top floor.
Next second.
His eyes were focused on Roger.
The hatred is full.
…
There is also a lot of disharmony within the Red Team.
Yona glared at Roger angrily:
"If you have the guts, turn me into your opponent!"
"I'm going to kill you all!"
She swore at Roger.
He launched a taunting attack on the steel dragon on the opposite side.
Yona looked weak and frail.
But his mouth was very sharp.
Although not to the point of using foul language.
But he is an expert at trash talking before the fight.
Roger was amazed.
"It's a shame not to give her the skill of gaining XP by cursing..."
He thought so.
For Yona.
Of course he was on guard against it.
After all, this woman was sent by Olmerdo.
It is vaguely an enemy of a higher level than the Ancient Steel Dragon.
But right now his most important enemy is Quentin!
To deal with Quentin.
He can unite with all enemies he can!
Even if Yona insulted him in every way.
He can also endure it!
…
"Let's put the Steel Dragon aside for now..."
"When the fight starts, kill Quentin first."
"To prevent this kid from causing any more trouble..."
For this Asgardian traitor.
Roger is determined to kill!
But besides watching Quentin's every move.
Roger's attention was partially distracted by the new laws.
He is weird.
Why were the rules of the God Duel Arena changed?
What are the "fragments of the God Game" detected by the system?
Combined with a background that is exactly the same as the Dark Ruins.
Roger couldn't help but have many guesses in his mind.
Not long.
He suddenly noticed.
The information that flashed across the screen before mentioned the audience in the second row!
…
"Mysterious Alchemist Group (Several Numbers)"!
…
Roger's heart moved!
Next second.
A word popped up in his mind -
…
"Red Valley"!
…
Red Valley Alchemist!
Those legendary alchemists who have the power to call the wind and rain in the game of gods!
Roger looked at the unfamiliar faces.
I was overwhelmed with thoughts:
"Could it be the descendant of the Red Valley Alchemist ?"
"Is it their existence that caused the changes in the God Duel Arena?"
"Or..."
His thoughts didn't linger for long.
Because at this moment.
Quentin's low voice came through the gap in the partition:
"Oh!"
"Did you find out?"
Roger walked over.
The two of them stared at each other across the wooden board in the lounge area.
Roger said nothing.
Quentin laughed softly:
"Looks like I have you to thank for that."
"I wasn't sure if the Red Valley Alchemist really existed..."
Roger snorted coldly:
"Are they your target?"
"Why are you looking for them?"
Quentin chuckled:
“Is it wrong to seek out like-minded people?”
Roger frowned:
"Like-minded?"
Quentin shrugged.
"The Red Valley Alchemists' goal is to turn games into reality. You know this, right?"
"That god-level curse back then—the 'Etherealization Curse'—was created by the Red Valley Alchemist..."
"You don't really think that it was released by some god?"
Roger was slightly stunned.
He didn't respond to Quentin's words.
I just thought about it secretly.
But Quentin continued calmly:
…
“I’ll tell you the truth.
What I'm looking for is the "Aetherial Curse" from that year!
My goal is to solve the source of distorted matter once and for all!
You know what I have in my hands.
You also know that I have given up on containing history.
But you definitely don't have the intelligence to understand why I did that.
Now.
I'll tell you the answer.
I believe that repeatedly containing the present world as history is not enough to solve the problem of distorted matter.
That is a stupid trick of drinking poison to quench thirst.
That is a plan that only those mediocre people in the Immortal Palace would insist on.
But I am different.
I have figured out a genius solution that can truly solve the problem of distorted matter..."
…
Hear this.
Roger couldn't help but blurt out:
"You want to turn reality into a game?"
Quentin smiled and said:
"why not?"
"Once reality becomes a game, the so-called distorted matter is nothing more than something that alchemists can write off..."
"As for whether to change back or continue to exist as a game world, we'll have to take it one step at a time..."
Roger's expression remained unchanged.
But I was extremely surprised in my heart.
Although he was full of distrust towards Quentin's words.
But this extremely bold idea really touched him!
"If this plan is really feasible..."
"etc!"
A flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to Roger's mind:
"Before the duel..."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Are you afraid that you will die in my hands and your 'genius plan' will not be implemented?"
Quentin laughed and said:
"You think too much babe."
"I just give my enemies a little hospice care out of habit."
"after all……"
"You are already dying!"
After saying that.
Quentin took two steps back.
He turned his head to look at Yona who was still arguing with Steel Dragon:
"This beautiful lady."
"Would you like to join our team?"
Yona looked at him in surprise.
He looked at Roger again.
Finally, he nodded doubtfully.
Next second.
Quentin gave one of his signature genuine smiles.
whoosh!
A flash of white light.
There was a gadget that looked like a gashapon machine in his hand.
Bang!
Quentin twisted the prop gently in his hand.
The entire God’s Duel Arena began to tremble slightly again!
In the audience.
The group of mysterious alchemists stood up excitedly!
Roger couldn't help but glance at the data column.
…
"Warning: Quentin used the item 'God Cheat'!"
…
"The team assignment system has been revised!"
…
"Yona, the Doll God, has joined the Blue Team!
…
The current team situation is as follows:
…
Red Team: Roger the Demon Slayer
…
Blue Team: Yona the Doll God / Quentin the Betrayer / Ancient Steel Dragon
…
The warm-up session is about to end! 」
…
Looking at Yona who suddenly appeared in the blue team's rest area.
A satisfied smile appeared on Quentin's face:
"So……"
"Let's have a fair fight!"
"A demon slayer."
"One against three shouldn't be too much of a loss, right?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
…
