The Show Ends, Heading to the Lake of Truth

The battle, which may have originally contained some friendship, gradually began to escalate under the repeated twists of the Magic Cube in the hands of the two.

With the twisting of the Magic Cube, both Garo and Rhode fell to the ground in pain.

"What's wrong with them?" The audience in the stands was puzzled.

Neither of them had made contact or exchanged magical attacks, so how could they have fallen?

"I understand!" In the audience, a spectator's glasses suddenly flashed, reflecting a wise light:

"This is the attack method of this ancient magical equipment!"

"It's a curse!"

"The so-called 'real man's' duel is nothing more than a competition of who can withstand the repeated and intense curses, and the one who can survive is the real man!"

"Ancient magical artifacts live up to their reputation; a real man must have an iron will!"

"The ode to humanity is the ode to will, and the greatness of humanity is the greatness of will!"

"So that's how it is!" The audience was enlightened by the expert and looked at the two on the stage with even more fervent eyes.

"Look! They are already in so much pain, yet they can still persevere like this. How strong must their willpower be to support them!"

Chu Ke looked at the man with the small mustache in the distance who was speaking with great enthusiasm and didn't know what to say.

Perhaps it could be? In a sense, this is a test of will.

"It's truly moving, this knight-like Spirit... Wuwuwu." Diallo next to him was somewhat touched.

It must be said, the child is really naive.

Although Vega also somewhat believed the expert's explanation, as a High-Level Archmage, she had no shortage of the desire to explore. She had a strong curiosity about the curses of the ancient era.

Having wandered through underground labyrinths for so many years, she had seen all kinds of magical prayers. Even if they were from the ancient series, she knew a little about them, but she had never seen an ancient curse.

No sooner said than done, Vega closed and opened her eyes, and a small purple magic array appeared in her eyes.

[High-Level Analysis Eye]

[When released, it can see through most magic and its structure, and can analyze and replicate the magical composition that is lower level for the caster]

Vega looked at the two on the stage with this magical version of Sharingan.

'Let me see, this so-called curse magic!'

[Telekinesis System · Elementary Magic · Invisible Hand]

[Engraved on the magic carrier by special means, acting on the opponent's reproductive organs, applying a strong twist]

'...'

Vega was silent.

How could it be a magic she recognized? No, how could it be such a low-level magic? Could there be something wrong with the area it's affecting? Not the brothers?

There were too many things to complain about, and even Vega, the High-Level Archmage, couldn't process it all for a moment.

Vega looked at the two on the field in pain, and the "aura of will" that had been bestowed upon them by the expert had now completely faded.

'What does that mean? Does it mean they're actually using this magic to twist the other's...thing...on the field right now?'

Thinking of this, Vega, who had never feared even facing a dragon, shuddered.

Although she was female, if you did an equivalent exchange... that kind of thing was a tonic! Speaking of which, she had grown up with them since childhood, but she hadn't realized they were so tolerant! On the field, if Rhode and Garo could hear the audience's thoughts, they would probably vomit blood.

What tolerant!

Ever since the second round started, both of them had regretted it.

What Xiao Zi, is she more important than my own lifeblood? It's really about to break!!!

The walnuts are almost turning into a patina, okay?

Garo and Rhode had already shaken hands and made peace, deciding to never touch that bizarre and vicious equipment again.

However, the rules didn't seem to allow them to stop.

At the beginning, there was a rule: [Note, after the start of the match, unless one side loses consciousness, the match cannot be interrupted and will continue automatically].

Just as they decided to shake hands and make peace, that voice appeared again, ignoring their wails without any emotional fluctuation, and began the countdown.

When the countdown ended, a hand composed of magic emerged from the Magic Cube and began to twist the Magic Cube itself.

Intense pain struck again, but this time the pain was not as swift as the previous artificial one.

Instead, it was a long, drawn-out process like cutting flesh with a dull knife.

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!"X2 "What do we do?" Garo panicked, his pupils questioning Rhode, who was also collapsed on the ground next to him, curled up into a ball.

Rhode was still wailing, the intense pain causing the muscles of his whole body to twitch.

"I...I don't know either!"

Is this the price of using ancient magical artifacts? Just then, a glint flashed in Rhode's eyes.

He struggled to crawl towards the Magic Cube not far away, grabbed it, and gave Garo a gentle smile: "Sorry, Garo, I'll make it up to you."

"Ah?" Garo's brain, ravaged by pain, was not very clear, but when he saw Rhode holding the Magic Cube, he was still shocked and shouted: "I've already surrendered, Rhode! What are you going to do!"

"Don't you understand, Garo! As long as none of us are unconscious, the torture will continue!" Rhode suddenly began to rotate the Magic Cube.

Seeing this, Garo also reached out to touch his own Magic Cube, but Rhode would not let him get his wish, and completed the rotation of the Magic Cube.

"Secret Art: Reversal of Heaven and Earth!"

"No—!" Garo wailed, a cloud of blood mist erupted from his crotch, and he passed out.

At the same time, the duel ended, and the Magic Cube floating in the air slowly stopped.

The referee fell from the air, looking at Rhode, who was standing tremblingly, with admiration: "Challenger Garo has lost consciousness! The winner is: Rhode!"

"Oh oh oh!!"

"Rhode! Rhode!" The people in the audience were shocked by this scene and spontaneously began to call Rhode's name.

"Wuwuwu, in the future, I must also have such a knightly duel!" Diallo said with some envy, sincerely.

"." Vega was still silent, her pupils shaking, her shock was different from others, and even more intense.

That cloud of blood mist... I hope he's okay.

On the field, Rhode breathed a sigh of relief, then shouted, "Medical staff? Doctor! Save him!"

The referee said with emotion, "As expected of a man with the spirit of a knight, even after winning fair and square, he still doesn't forget his opponent!"

"But rest assured, with our level of medical care, he'll be fine."

Rhode didn't say anything.

I hope so.

Rhode was taken aback. What was the reason he originally challenged Garo?

He couldn't quite remember.

"Alright," Chu Ke clapped his hands, the popcorn he was holding was gone at some point, "The match is over, let's go, let's head to the Lake of Truth."

"Yeah!" Diallo nodded, "What a hearty duel."

"Together?" Chu Ke asked, looking at Vega, who opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, her expression still shocked and not yet recovered.

"...Yeah," Vega nodded.

She couldn't stay here any longer. Now, as long as she saw Garo and Rhode, today's events would replay in her mind.

She couldn't face them anymore... Thank you readers for your support and understanding, thank you, I will take good care of myself! Alas, the debt is getting bigger and bigger, how will I ever get this on the shelves... (sad)
