Just as Dean was about to get another magic item to test his guess, he felt a chill on the back of his neck.
He immediately turned around and saw Kana holding her paws on her back with an innocent face and her yellow eyes. Seeing him suddenly turning around, she blinked twice in confusion.
He looked completely uninformed.
Dean's eyes slowly moved back, and he glanced at Xiaolan, who was flying in the air with the book under her body missing. He was silent for a moment, and suddenly felt a little sleepy.
Maybe it's because I didn't get a good rest last night... I'd better go to bed early today.
After all, there is a competition with the witch later. Although the victory or defeat does not affect the outcome of the game, it is best to win beautifully, which will also be beneficial to the future development of the Origin Guild in District 13.
As for these weird magic props, they can't run away, so it's not too late to study them after everything is over.
After convincing himself, Dean reluctantly looked at the magic props piled up on the ground, and called Xiao Lan towards the bedroom.
Watching him leave, Kana threw away the brick-like book in her hand and gave Xiaolan a high-five as she passed by.
"Here."
Young people should go to bed early and get up early to stay healthy.
"That's right!"
After translating Kana's cry, Xiao Lan, who no longer needed to continue reading, nodded in agreement.
…
Maybe it was because all the accidents had piled up and happened in one night. On this night, Dean had a particularly peaceful life.
After he had a good sleep and replenished his energy, he took the apprentices to the rest room belonging to the breeder early the next morning.
On the way, he also saw Timothy. This guy seemed to be busy today and didn't have time to go to the lounge to join in the fun. He just said hello briefly and joked about Dean finally arriving in time. , and then left.
Looking at the background of Timothy's departure, although Dean was a little confused, he didn't take it to heart.
After all, the other party is a high-ranking member of the Knights. It is normal for him to have any matters that need to be dealt with.
This calm state of mind lasted until the opening. Looking at the situation in the venue, Dean finally began to feel that something was wrong.
The first thing that was wrong was the number of spectators. Dean's eyes turned around in the auditorium a few times and he could easily tell that the number of spectators today was much larger than that of the next day. .
Moreover, most of them were from outside the country. Those clothes were obviously not in the same style as District 13, which made Dean's weird feeling become more intense.
The unusual thing wasn't just that, the contest between him and the witch was actually scheduled to be the first one.
Dean frowned the first time he heard about this arrangement.
It's not that he felt that he didn't make the final appearance and his mentality was unbalanced, but he could glean some extraordinary information from this seemingly simple transfer.
Dean is somewhat aware of his current popularity and popularity. If there are no other reasons, then arranging the contest between him and the witch until the end must be the best choice.
Whether it is in terms of mobilizing the atmosphere or the effect of the competition, it will be a step higher than another arrangement.
However, now, the competition between him and the witch, which is obviously more eye-catching, has been brought to the forefront. What is the reason for this?
Dean's ears echoed again with Sigrid's words yesterday.
Could this be Sigrid's handiwork?
What is this "surprise" she calls?
Dean frowned and walked into the player tunnel, always feeling like a storm was about to come.
Under his vigilant gaze, the [Wheel of Destiny] began to rotate, and the black and white grid rotated faster and faster, finally stopping at the one-on-one special mode.
Black and white light fell on Dean and Lilia almost at the same time.
This is undoubtedly the combination that best meets the audience's expectations. One is the talented witch who has never taken serious action but is extremely famous, and the other is Dean, the breeder who has suddenly become famous and has become famous recently.
However, facing the expectant gaze of the audience, the expression of the referee who was responsible for announcing the rules of the competition became a little strange.
He cleared his throat and tried to keep his tone calm as he said: "This competition will be conducted in a special one-on-one mode..."
"And according to the judgment of [The Wheel of Destiny], the theme of the special mode is..."
He said the word that caused the whole audience to burst into uproar, "Battle of Demon Pets!"
Seeing Dean's eyes suddenly widened, Sigrid covered the lower half of her face with her feather fan and slowly raised a smile that showed her success.
That's what she calls a "surprise."
For this "surprise", Sigrid can be said to have worked very hard.
Even the manipulations done before were all to improve the audience's acceptance of the appearance of magic pets in the "special mode" and to pave the way for the final scene.
But now, this foreshadowing comes in handy.
"This is too obvious..."
Like the audience below, the observers in the observation room were also shocked by this so-called "demon pet battle". Faxisuo even murmured dissatisfiedly, but dissatisfaction was the result, and no one caused trouble again. Go to Grid.
One is because Dean is better than the Mage, and the outcome of this Origin Guild has basically been determined, and any small moves they make will be of no use.
The other one is because of a certain fact that Dean accidentally revealed yesterday.
In the corner, the two observers looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes. They exchanged a look and quickly lowered their heads, hiding their expressions in the shadows.
Pretending not to hear the small discussion behind her, Sigrid looked down at the referee who was explaining the rules to the players and the audience. The corners of her lips raised slightly, showing an expression as if she was watching a good show.
The witch doesn't care about the final result anyway, so what's the obstacle in choosing which mode? Her move might just suit others' wishes.
Just as Sigrid had guessed, after a brief surprise, Lilia felt irritated that she had been tricked, but her enthusiasm for the test skyrocketed.
She turned her head and beckoned Fuya, who had followed her to watch the battle, over.
It's quite interesting.
After touching Fuya's head, Lilia looked at Dean, a fighting spirit slowly igniting in her eyes.
It's just a good opportunity to see which one is stronger, your shadow or my magic.
As if he saw something in Lilia's provocative eyes, Dean paused and summoned Xiao Lan.
[The Wheel of Destiny] instantly locked the playing pets of both sides. Because of the identity of the Falling Star Hair Demon's parasitic familiar, it also very intelligently included Dean.
But correspondingly, Lilia on the opposite side also has the right to use auxiliary magic to assist Fuya.
Dean and Xiaolan merged into one. He looked across from Fuya, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and Lilia, who looked not so good-looking, and shrugged.
Use shadow to defeat magic?
Don't make trouble, he's not out of tricks, why bother using the same routine two days in a row.
Of course I choose to use magic to defeat magic.
