Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?-Chapter 540 -

Chapter 540: So It's This Witch!

Following the conclusion of the previous strike, the Player responsible for launching the Godslayer strike was instantly backfired by the power and was waiting to die.

The two remaining Players, who were initially unwilling not to use the Godslayer combat armor, felt a wave of relief.

Because they had no direct contact, they only endured the aftershocks of the explosion's epicenter.

According to the system's calculation of the damage radius, their position received the least impact, but they still endured a terrifying shockwave.

Their auxiliary armor was inherently designed to assist in defending against aftershocks, but after this strike, they had to switch back to their own combat armor.

The "Durability" of the new armor had already fallen below the warning line.

So, it was clear that the Godslayer armor and auxiliary armor they used were merely quick-reaction decoys for emergency situations.

It made sense... the Game Architects wouldn't possibly provide them with a genuine Godslayer combat armor that quickly.

A true Godslayer armor shouldn't be accompanied by only the two of them as auxiliary armor.

They had thought this was going to be an easy mission, but no one expected that the three Players responsible for the frontal siege were almost killed by the opponent's counterattack!

But luckily, they still had a contingency plan.

The Godslayer armor was only a temporary measure to stall the opponent.

This time, they had simply stirred up a hornet's nest.

After escaping the explosion's epicenter, those who looked like Birdmen and the others also used the opportunity to scatter like birds and beasts.

The Players, however, had the bodies of ordinary people.

Even in the brief interval of changing armor, they were shivering from the cold.

But the Game Architects in the rear didn't care about their current state.

They needed to immediately track those two girls!

After all, one of the two girls carried the Technology Core they desperately wanted, and the other carried a large amount of Game Qualification resources!

Capturing either one of them would be a huge profit for them!

Of course, greedy as they were, they chose to have both.

They were also trying to urgently gather all the Players who had descended into this world to this location.

Although this would take a long time, as long as they could locate the two people, the time it took to arrive wouldn't matter much.

They could immediately proceed with the subsequent encirclement plan, which involved no fancy tricks, just adapting to the situation.

The first vanguard explorers who arrived in this world were all top-tier Players.

They all possessed a unique skill.

Or rather... every representative of power was an extension of the power granted by the Myriad Worlds Terminal!

“Location acquired. Hehe, that foolish woman severed her own right arm. She is truly ruthless to herself, but now they are trapped!”

After assisting the deceased Player with "euthanasia," the two remaining Players lowered their own perception of pain.

With the help of the Myriad Worlds Terminal system, they completed the target's location tracking.

Although they had been delayed for a lot of time due to their own reasons, with the addition of the flying module, they quickly caught up.

The targets they were tracking were clearly severely injured.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have sought a place to hide first.

“Found them! Hehe… they're here!”

As they violently pried open the wall, the sunlight from outside shone into a slightly dim corner, but it did not bring hope.

The figures of the two girls immediately came into their sight.

After confirming their identities through the system, they immediately issued a warning, but they did not immediately carry out a large-scale, indiscriminate extermination.

This was because there was a Child of Destiny here.

Although the concept of a Child of Destiny was not acknowledged by their Game Architects, these high-end Players had some conjectures.

They were the ones on the front lines of every world, and much of their information was gained through their own methods.

Even the method of plundering Game Qualification was, to a certain extent, built upon the Child of Destiny conjecture.

And this method of plunder was to continuously cause trouble for the Child of Destiny, create difficulties for them, even directly insult them and trample on their dignity, extinguishing all their possibilities.

The goal was to "kill the heart."

By relying on this method, the Myriad Worlds Terminal could capture these Game Qualifications.

They would only choose a permanent solution and kill the target after they were truly unable to squeeze out any more Game Qualification.

If they killed the target directly without the previous process of exploitation, they would barely be able to collect any of this Destiny.

They were vanguard explorers, incapable of directly influencing this world.

Before they could cause a certain degree of invasive influence on this world, they had no means to directly compete with the World Will for Destiny.

Just after they confirmed the identities of the two girls, they suddenly noticed a bizarre pattern emitting a dazzling light on the ground near them.

And after scanning this pattern, a crimson warning suddenly flashed in their vision.

They were greatly astonished by this.

The Myriad Worlds Terminal had actually performed an "Information Collection" on this thing!

The opponent's method actually matched the information in the database!

But the Game Architects who were observing all this were even more unsettled.

This was a Summoning Ritual!

The Summoning Ritual that was closely related to the Calamity Witch they encountered in that Small World earlier!

Their deep, inherent fear of the concept of "Witch" made them immediately abandon the occupation of that Small World and disassociate themselves from any connection.

Furthermore, under the deduction of the Myriad Worlds Terminal, they had confirmed that this unknown symbol might expose the "coordinates" of their world.

This made them even more certain that the one who called herself the Calamity Witch wanted to invade their world!

For this reason, that Calamity Witch had even thought of a way to inverse-transmit this Summoning Ritual to their world through contact with these Players.

How could the Game Architects, who understood all this, remain calm?

They immediately issued the highest global command, utilizing the Myriad Worlds Terminal to conduct a worldwide information erasure, completely eliminating all records related to this Summoning Ritual from their world!

As for whether it was possible to record it physically... this was impossible, because paper and pen had long been eliminated in their world.

Only the interconnected Myriad Worlds Terminal remained, and before the Myriad Worlds Terminal, no one had any privacy.

But now, they hadn't expected to see this again here!

However, after the shock, the Game Architects immediately issued a confirmation command.

And at this moment, the two Players received the command.

“Who! Who are you summoning!”

The two who received the command immediately locked their weapons onto the two girls.

“Tell us who you are summoning! Otherwise, we will execute you!”

“Hmm…”

Tan Han and Xia Li were instantly frightened by the aggressive behavior of these two.

However, Xia Li endured the pain and released a Protective Spell sufficient to resist the opponent’s kinetic weapons.

Tan Han couldn't possibly tell the other party that she was summoning reinforcements, and Xia Li wasn't very clear about what this thing was.

Until the person they least wanted to see appeared within the Summoning Ritual formation.

“Ca- Calamity Witch!”

One of the two Players widened his pupils upon seeing the figure who appeared, revealing an expression of disbelief!

He naturally recognized the opponent!

The Star of Sin recently held its final service celebration, and he went to enjoy it.

Naturally, he learned a little about this unexpected guest, and with his information sharing privilege in the high-level community, he naturally understood the full situation of the Calamity Witch.

She was a terrifying powerhouse who could unleash a single attack nearly matching the Godslayer armor just by using magic, without relying on any armor.

Moreover, she was possibly an invader who showed a covetous attitude toward their world!

To say he wasn't afraid was a lie!

But what was the situation now?

Had this world also been eyed by this Witch?!

Although the two Players couldn't figure out the current situation, the Game Architects behind them had to handle it calmly.

They were probing, probing a possibility…

“Respected Miss Calamity Witch…”

The Player who understood the situation suddenly spoke.

Looking at the figure who suddenly appeared, he felt his throat dry up as he spoke.

After all, they were only ordinary people, and the bodies they currently occupied were ordinary.

Even the main body controlling this body was an ordinary person.

And Tan Han and Xia Li were also shocked.

Xia Li was shocked that Tan Han had directly summoned Little Han and hadn't processed it yet.

Tan Han, however, was shocked by the opponent's attitude towards Little Han.

The moment she appeared, one of the opponents was so frightened that he immediately addressed her with respectful language!

And… Miss Calamity Witch... this title... did Little Han know about them?

And at this moment, I, after being summoned, immediately confirmed the surrounding environment and my own defenses.

After seeing Tan Han’s figure, I looked enlightened.

Tan Han summoned me, no wonder.

The layout of Destiny really made me go in such a huge circle.

But the two people opposite them… were they Secret Diggers?

Thanks to Academy Head Bev Ailana’s reminder, I knew they had descended into the Main World, but I hadn't expected that I would be directly confronting them the moment I entered the Script.

However, judging by their address, they seemed to recognize me.

“Hmm… you recognize me. What should I call you, Secret Diggers? Or… Players?”

I asked.

But at this moment, I sensed a terrifying force disappearing into the air in the distance.

It was a coldness that pierced the bones, intertwined with the afterglow of an explosion.

The air was also mixed with the scent of dust stirred up by collapsing buildings.

What on earth did Tan Han and the others do?

Had I arrived at a war zone?

But there hadn't been any war in the Main World for a long time.

“Just call us Vanguard Explorers, esteemed Witch. May I ask… are you an Aboriginal of this world?”

The Player looked at the instructions sent by the Game Architects in his vision.

Although he wasn't sure why they had to risk asking this question, they could only comply.

“Vanguard Explorers… so that’s how it is.”

I nodded, having understood the situation, and also figuring out many other things.

However, I also took the opportunity to use an Appraisal Spell to understand what exactly had happened here.

Although the information obtained from the Earth Vein was a bit slow and lacked a specific target, it was much more convenient than simply asking.

“May I ask… are you an Aboriginal of this world?”

Seeing that I hadn't responded for a long time, he was instructed to ask again.

“Yes, is there a problem?”

I said without hesitation, hiding nothing.

However, I felt a slight sadness for them.

They had already fallen into an abyss of no return, and only had the current moment to struggle.

But in a place I didn't know about, back in the game world.

As this answer appeared, the Game Architects burst into a frenzy of ecstasy!

This was the answer they had been most anticipating!

Others were extremely annoyed, feeling that they had been like clowns before, scared and recoiling from such a figure!

What did they hear?

The Calamity Witch, the one who scared them into using the highest worldwide command for targeted information erasure, was an Aboriginal of this "Small World" that they were invading!

They almost wanted to drag those Game Architects who chose to evacuate that Small World over and thoroughly criticize them.

They were actually scared witless by this one figure, even going to such great lengths for it.

Did they truly think that worldwide targeted information erasure was something that could be used casually?

Using it once meant the entire world had to move once!

If those low-level figures started any riots or conflicts because of this, it could threaten the stability of their world!

Hehe… Witch.

They had collected a lot of superficial information about this world and understood that the Transcendent organizations of this world were set up in the form of Academies, and one of them was "Witch Academy."

After all that, it turned out that this was what they were so afraid of.

So, it was this Witch!

Sure enough, the Witch described in the world grave they encountered before could not possibly be encountered by them so easily.

This was merely a profession—a Witch profession—not the Witch Race!

So, what was there to be afraid of now?

The Game Architects at this moment felt as if they had ridden a roller coaster.

At first, they thought they had to abandon this world again, but no one expected the opponent to be so vulnerable.

They were literally just scaring themselves!

However, the decision of the Game Architects could not be synchronized with these vanguard Players at this moment.

But even though they didn't know it, the strategic direction behind them had quietly changed.

Even if they realized that the so-called Calamity Witch was merely a powerful Spell Caster, the two Players currently present might still not be able to defeat this Witch.

So, the subsequent development would be left to the Players to handle.

Anyway, if they genuinely couldn't take both targets this time, even just one of them, they would at least have obtained another significant piece of intelligence, so it wouldn't be a loss.

Moreover, the opponent might also be kept in the dark.

Suddenly, those Game Architects looked at the "Calamity Witch" in front of them and felt that perhaps she could be utilized.

Her ability was simply too terrifying.

“No… I’m sorry to bother you. Then, may I ask if you intend to protect these two behind you?”

“Yes, I’ll protect them. If you don’t want to die, you’d better leave now,” I threatened, but my attention was already fixed on the threads of Destiny that they themselves could not see.

Previously, I could only see the superficial threads of Destiny.

I hadn't expected that upon seeing the deeper level, I would find that their utilization of Destiny seemed to be quite advanced?

Using Destiny to manipulate… people. That was truly a terrifying method.

“I’m afraid that’s not possible.”

“Do you think you can defeat me?”

I looked at the Player who recognized me and asked.

Since he knew me, he should know my strength.

I wanted to prevent him from letting his teammate become cannon fodder.

“Yes, we may not be able to defeat you, esteemed Calamity Witch, when you unleash your full firepower, but we don't ask for much. Just one item, or one person…”

“Our companions are not just the two of us this time. We have been stalling for time to allow our other companions to set up a small strategic nuclear bomb. You can indeed kill us, but you know that would be pointless. For that, this city will be completely reduced to ruins, and the surrounding cities will also be heavily affected. Such a disaster, I presume, is something you also cannot bear, right?”
