Othinus Trapped in the Bar

It can only be said that it just so happened to coincide with Chen Luo's area of expertise.

Besides the Primogem, the other rewards are also very valuable.

For example, that demon god ritual or something like that.

Oh, it's specifically called the "Archon Ascension Ritual".

There's also the [Knowledge of Othinus]. As the pinnacle of Magus, Othinus learned the knowledge of others, so even if he couldn't become a demon god, he would still be very powerful.

In particular, there are two random rewards.

However, Chen Luo no longer had the mind to think about this matter.

Since Othinus had already walked out of the bar with the Golden Gungnir in his hand, Chen Luo couldn't help but follow him.

Othinus walked out of the bar, while Chen Luo stood at the entrance, not daring to approach.

Inside the bar, the other person can't beat you up, but once you step outside, you might get beaten to a pulp.

As Othinus walked out of the bar wielding the Golden Gungnir, a vast and unique concept instantly converged upon the golden spear, and at the same time, the spear's form seemed to undergo some kind of change.

The original Gungnir didn't have many extra decorations; it was just for poking people.

However, as the concept continues to evolve, Gungnir's form is also changing in an unknown direction.

"This is the Gungnir from the original story. Why does it have to be transformed into this form?" Chen Luo recognized the direction of Gungnir's transformation at a glance. It was the form of the God's Spear from the original story, but Chen Luo was curious about the underlying principle.

But demons are a group of people who don't follow principles.

They can even make 1+1=3.

With the Divine Power Othinus, the fully evolved Gungnir successfully completed the integration.

In that instant, everyone somewhere in the world of A Certain A Certain Magical Index turned their gaze toward the direction of the bar.

To be precise, it is Othinus wielding Gungnir.

Some people knew that Othinus wanted to create the God's Spear, but they didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

This completely surprised many people.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Luo saw Othinus lift Gungnir.

"Wait, what do you want to do?" Although the oppressive feeling emanating from Othinus, who was holding the God's Spear, was constantly pressing on Chen Luo's nerves, and even made Chen Luo feel threatened with death just by standing in front of the other party.

However, Chen Luo was indeed safe inside the bar, so Chen Luo still stopped the other party.

"It was just a test. Sure enough, the contract in your Book of Contracts is extremely powerful." Othinus, who had raised the God's Spear, touched the hilt of the God's Spear to the ground again.

Without fulfilling the preconditions of the contract, a binding force powerful enough to restrain even a demon god prevented Othinus from throwing the God's Spear in his hand, nor from using his power to destroy the world.

"Then, the game of hide-and-seek is about to begin. The application has been submitted, and as agreed, you have one minute to prepare. After one minute, you need to find me. If you lose, the world will be destroyed." Under the extremely strong constraint, Othinus said to Chen Luo.

"Since that's the case, aren't you going to hide?" Chen Luo asked, leaning against the doorway.

"Unnecessary."

"Hey, if you didn't want to destroy the world, you should have said so earlier. Why are you being so accommodating to me?"

"Heh. Just a friendly reminder, the condition for ending this game of hide-and-seek is that you catch me, not that you see me," Othinus said coolly.

"!!!"

"Moreover, even in hide-and-seek, if you don't catch me, it's a neutral situation, which means I haven't lost this game of hide-and-seek."

"The contract stipulates that if I lose, I will fight for you, and I cannot destroy the world. However, if I haven't lost, that is, if you haven't captured me yet, I can destroy the world." Othinus patiently explained the loopholes in the other party's contract to Chen Luo.

Because Othinus was happy to see Chen Luo's time being wasted.

"!!! This is allowed?!"

Chen Luo admitted that the first surprise was feigned, but the second surprise was genuine.

Seriously? This is allowed?

"I am the god of war, magic, art, and betrayal, so betraying a contract is naturally a piece of cake for me. However, your contract is very coercive, so I can only betray you by exploiting a loophole," Othinus said, shaking his head.

The world of A Certain Magical Index also revolves around concepts.

This is especially true for the ascension ritual of demon gods.

Moreover, Othinus has lived for who knows how many years, so it's not unreasonable for him to specialize in betrayal.

"Friendly reminder: there are 30 seconds left," Othinus said to Chen Luo.

Othinus was quite curious about what actions Chen Luo would take.

"I was just one move off. But it's not a big deal. Chess is what I'm best at." Chen Luo said as he turned and walked towards the third floor of the bar.

Euthynus was very puzzled by Chen Luo's actions.

At least during his conversations and actual transactions with Chen Luo, Othinus could tell that Chen Luo genuinely did not want him to destroy the world, even though destroying the world had nothing to do with him, and even though he could still live well after destroying the world.

Othinus was somewhat puzzled by the other party's decisive abandonment.

However, Othinus no longer wanted to concern himself with these matters.

Holding the God's Spear, one can fully unleash the Divine Power, and the achievement of the goal is within reach.

30 seconds.

20 seconds.

10 seconds.

5, 4, 3...

Just as Othinus raised the God's Spear in his hand, about to unleash the final punishment upon the world, Othinus vanished in an instant.

In a flash, Othinus felt a forced shift in space and time.

Blinking his only left eye in confusion, Othinus saw Chen Luo holding a torn piece of paper in front of him.

It's worth mentioning that Chen Luo first used the One Sight Like Old Friends to reduce the other party's discount to 70%, and then filled it with Favorability Shard.

After completing the other party's five-star mission, I was rewarded with 40 points of favorability.

They directly increased the discount to 50%.

This was not only the fastest five-star commission Chen Luo had ever completed, but Othinus was also the fastest friend Chen Luo had ever gone from a complete stranger to a friend with a 50% discount.

Although a 50% discount doesn't mean the other party and Chen Luo are extremely close friends, it can fulfill many of Chen Luo's requirements for items.

For example... the summoning conditions of the Friend's Ledger.

Even after tearing off the other person's name to summon them, the torn-off name can be quickly restored due to the high discount.

"Yes, I've found you," Chen Luo said to Othinus with a smile.

"And we'll catch you very soon," Chen Luo said, glancing at his enclosed bedroom on the third floor.

The door is already closed; no one can open it without Chen Luo's permission.

"What's going on?" Othinus had no idea why he had been suddenly transported.

"Oh, my dear friend, let's put the question aside for now, but how about catching a turtle in a jar?" Chen Luo clenched his fist.

Go ahead and scream, even if you scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you!

I've never lost a game of hide-and-seek in my life!

Chapter 656 Othinus Trapped in the Bar

"..." Othinus held the God's Spear, which was much taller than himself, and looked at Chen Luo, who was standing in front of him, eager to try.

Othinus still doesn't understand what happened.

How did they manage to summon me to this bar?

But Othinus knew the problem was serious.

The contract between Othinus and the other party stipulated that they could apply to play hide-and-seek again only with the mutual consent of both parties.

If you lose at hide-and-seek, you can't destroy the world, and you have to grant the other person a request.

If Chen Luo wins, and if Othinus destroys the world, he will also need to restore it.

Othinus originally thought that the other party wanted to use multiple opportunities to try to save the world by succeeding in one of them, so that he could restore the world.

But now it seems the other party just wants to get something for nothing!

"So, my dear friend, do you want me to catch you willingly, or do you want me to catch you?" Chen Luo twisted his neck.

The attic on the third floor is not cramped, but it is an enclosed room.

Othinus knew perfectly well that he could not possibly remain in this room all day to escape the enemy's pursuit.

No... maybe it's not impossible.

The room is not small. Although the bar will limit a person's strength to prevent them from causing any damage or harm to others, the bar has a collision volume, which means that the bar does not limit the opponent's true strength, speed, or power.

Although the space is relatively small, it might not be impossible for a demon god to evade the opponent's capture with his speed and strength.

After thinking it over, Othinus swung the God's Spear in his hand and swept it towards Chen Luo.

Chen Luo didn't even dodge the attack from the God's Spear; he simply blocked it with one hand.

While there may be collisions in a bar, these are limited to interactions between people.

The item cannot possibly harm anyone else, not even the God's Spear.

"Since you've chosen to resist, then I won't hold back." Chen Luo grabbed the opponent's God's Spear while touching Othinus with his other hand.

Upon seeing this, Othinus immediately gave the entire God's Spear to the other party.

The issue isn't about the God's Spear anymore; it's about preventing the opponent from getting it.

Chen Luo didn't care much about the God's Spear, after all, it was Chen Luo who gave it to the other party.

Even if he got it back, he would still have to return it to the other party, so he simply threw the God's Spear aside and pounced on Othinus in a manner similar to a tyrant grabbing his concubine.

Seeing Chen Luo rushing towards him, Eugenius lightly jumped over Chen Luo's head and landed on his bed.

"Hey, didn't anyone tell you not to wear shoes to bed? And stop struggling. Even if you can hide for a while in a bar, can you hide all day? Just give in to me."

"You are welcome to try," Othinus said dismissively.

"You don't actually think that just because I can't hurt you, I might get caught by you in the bar, do you?" Othinus scoffed.

"Indeed, you dodged very quickly. However... you might be new to the bar, so there are some things you don't understand. That is, you can certainly use your skills in a bar as long as you don't hurt anyone. But there are limits to the amount of impact; you can't just throw someone away." Chen Luo suddenly said.

"Especially with objects, you can never cause any damage to them, you can't even move them."

Chen Luo now realized that the other party was very fast.

"So, what are you trying to say?"

"Well, although my bedroom is indeed quite large, giving you room to move around, what if I fill this entire bedroom?" Chen Luo suddenly said.

"Huh?" Othinus was taken aback.

Then Othinus saw Chen Luo take out chairs, sofas and other things from his backpack and start filling out his bedroom.

"Damn it!" Othinus realized something in an instant.

If Chen Luo fills the entire bedroom to the point where it can only hold two people, no matter how well you try to hide, you won't be able to escape his grasp.

Since Chen Luo didn't remove the restrictions, no one could damage the bar's items, so Otinus was completely unable to clean them up.

In other words... this is a dead end.

"Do you really want to be my enemy?" Eugenius asked, squinting.

"I'm not your enemy, I just don't want you to destroy the world. After all, I don't want to be the culprit who destroys the world," Chen Luo said, shaking his head.

"With the God's Spear, I may not be able to harm you in the bar, but from now on, you will never be able to return to your world. After all, in your world, no one can protect you from my grasp," Eugenius threatened.

"Even if I can't go back to that world, I won't let you destroy it." Chen Luo didn't seem to care much about the other party's threat.

Although losing one world is equivalent to losing the income from one world's Primogem.

But it's better than being the culprit who destroys the world.
