The forms of offense and defense have changed.

To an outsider, it would have seemed like a fierce attack, but Kudo Mitsunobu was barely managing to dodge.

The players' expressions can be seen on the big screen.

It was clear from the expression on Hikaru's Ichijo Masaki gritted his teeth and blocked Kudo Mitsunobu's offensive.

"Damn it, Masaki is being suppressed."

George Shion frowned and then spoke to another player with Third High School stats.

"I'm going out to support Masaki."

"Okay! Don't worry, leave it to me!"

George Shion quietly left the second party's position, preparing to launch a large-scale flanking attack on Kudo Mitsunobu.

"George Shion has set off, so I'm heading out too."

Jumonji Takeshi said something softly when he straightened up and assumed a starting position.

Kudo Mitsunobu and Ichijo Masaki were getting closer and closer, and now the distance between them was only about 100 meters.

The closer the distance, the faster the electric snake fired from Kudo Mitsunobu's gun will reach Ichijo Masaki's position.

Furthermore, as Kudo Mitsunobu released more and more magic, beads of sweat the size of soybeans began to appear on Ichijo Masaki's forehead.

At this moment, having already moved around to two hundred meters to the left of Kudo Mitsunobu, George Shion also operated his CAD and extended his right hand.

His crimson pupils were fixed on Kudo Mitsunobu, his thoughts gathering in his palm, the [Invisible Bullet] ready to be fired.

"Go!"

The instant the [Invisible Bullet] left his hand, a black figure rushed over and stood between Kudo Mitsunobu and Kichijoji Shinkuro.

"How is this possible? There's no response!"

The bizarre scene startled George Shion; in the instant the bullet left his hand, he certainly saw the figure blocking his way.

He still thought this person was there to act as a human shield, and that taking out one person first would make his tactic a complete success.

But what's going on? There's no indication on the surface that the other party used any defensive measures, yet when the bullets hit him, they seemed to bounce off.

"George Shion, I'll hold you off. I won't let you interfere with Koushu."

Jumonji Takeshi assumed a fighting stance when he silently activated his continuous Self-Acceleration Sorcerer.

Because he was born unable to use long-range attack magic, he was much stronger than the average person at researching and enhancing his own magic.

He shortened the distance of over 100 meters by more than half by simply stepping on the ground three times.

"How could it be so fast!"

George Shion's pupils contracted sharply as he rapidly manipulated the CAD, a movement-type magic circle unfolding behind him.

Yesterday, when Ichijo Masaki brought back the contestants from First High School, Kudo Mitsunobu and Jumonji Takeshi, they had already used their network of connections to investigate the two.

They were naturally familiar with the information about the Jumonji Takeshi, who was unable to use long-range attack magic and was known as [Range Zero].

[Range zero] As the name suggests, it means zero distance. It is obvious that such a person is extremely good at close combat.

Unfortunately, he is a purely mid-to-long-range attacker, completely clueless about close-range combat.

If he gets close enough to defend me, I'll only face defeat.

"Useless!"

Jumonji Takeshi gave a low shout and unleashed another self-acceleration spell, his short body charging towards George Shion like a charging bullet.

"It's a four-in-a-row attack!"

George Shion never expected that he had come out to help Ichijo Masaki escape his predicament, but instead he was the one who was forced into a desperate situation first.

He threw three Lightning Rod rods from his hand, aiming them at Jumonji Takeshi's face.

He didn't originally intend to use magic, because he was still completely confused as to why the [Invisible Bullet] had been deflected. So he wanted to test the waters first before launching an attack.

But now there's really no other way. His own speed in releasing movement magic is far slower than Jumonji Takeshi's self-acceleration. If he doesn't go all in here, he'll have no choice but to retreat.

Just as the three Lightning Rod rods were about to pierce straight into the body of Jumonji Takeshi.

At the same time, the Jumonji Takeshi of light burst forth from their entire bodies, and as the invisible brilliance shone, the three Lightning Rod gradually melted away under this intense light.

Jumonji Takeshi feet slammed into the ground, soaring into the air.

A fierce and powerful straight punch landed directly on George Shion 'George Shion abdomen, causing his entire body to arch. The powerful impact sent him tumbling several times in the air before he finally crashed to the ground.

"Brother, could this be...!"

Sitting in the stands, Shiba Miyuki covered her pink lips with both hands, looking at Shiba Tatsuya next to her in disbelief.

"That's right, it's [Cast Jamming]."

Shiba Tatsuya's shock was no less than that of Shiba Miyuki. Although he lacked emotions, he was not completely devoid of them.

He would naturally be shocked to encounter something like this.

"But this seems different from the [Cast Jamming] that Tatsuya usually uses!"

Chiba Erika has always adhered to the principle of asking questions when she doesn't understand something. Whether you tell me or not is irrelevant, but if I want to know, I will definitely ask.

"This should be a contact-type [Cast Jamming]! In terms of difficulty, it's actually a bit more advanced than my elder brother's Cast Jamming."

After recovering from her shock Shiba Miyuki quietly explained to Chiba Erika.

"We've already won this match!"

Having witnessed the match to this point, Watanabe Mari immediately concluded that, in everyone's eyes, the Third High School players had no chance of winning.

Third High School Ichijo Masaki struggling to hold on, and judging from the situation, defeat is only a matter of time.

George Shion, had already fainted and was unable to move, creating a three-on-two situation.

"Yes!"

Saegusa Mayumi's lips curved into a beautiful smile as she spoke happily.
