After the deaths of [Ms. Charming] and [Stalker in the Dark], perhaps because the narration of the story only needs to focus on one person, a large description of the environment and psychology appeared in the narration of the black-robed secret keeper.
Iluna doesn't care about those psychological descriptions that are obviously nonsense, she is sure that Xia De fully understands the current situation, and may even already know the characteristics of [Dice Stories Collection].
This is not only trust in Xia De, but also trust in Luvia. On the road of pursuing the chosen one and the great prophecy of "Whispering Verses", sometimes Iluna Bayas feels that she, the real chosen one, is actually the unnecessary one.
All the actions are performed by Xia De, and all the information is given by Luvia. Sometimes, she doubts her place among the three. But this kind of doubt about herself just proved her trust in Xia De and Luvia.
At any time, she will not doubt Xia De's combat effectiveness, and at any time, she will not easily question the information given by Luvia.
"Since I'm in charge of this event, I won't let them down. I'm not always unexpected like Xia De, and I don't know all kinds of information like Luvia, but at least, I can be myself to fulfill their duties..."
Amidst the sirens and bells, the light of the brass rings illuminated the darkness. The ring of life transformed into a dark golden balance, shining in all directions. In the astonishment of everyone, the power of the chosen one shines on the table under the light.
"I can't bring you victory, but I will use my wisdom to at least keep you from losing this game."
"Entering the battle round, please roll the dice and make a 'boxing' judgment."
With a muffled bang, Xia De's fist was blocked by the erected arm, and then the fist wearing black gloves also swung towards him, and Xia De also used his arm to block.
After a short confrontation, the two fought with only fists and arms at close range. Although Xia De has not systematically learned boxing, his excellent physical fitness is the most powerful weapon in itself, and the guy who is wrapped in black clothes and his face under the hat is a shadow no matter what angle he looks at, his strength and body The quality is obviously comparable to Xia De.
[Power] Obtaining the spirit rune itself increases power, and Xia De still has a relic [Impure Dragon's Blood]. When the four of Dr. Schneider came to the door of the room, they happened to see the scene of the two fists waving and hitting each other's arms. Bill Schneider, as a professional psychiatrist, received professional fighting training when he was studying. He could see that neither of the two sides knew boxing, and they just swung their fists with strength, and no one could stop the other for a while.
[Thief Jack]'s action mode is not biased towards fighting, so after fighting with Xia De, he immediately tried to move towards the window.
"Surround them!"
whispered the Doctor, and rushed into the room with Priest Augustus, "Dorothy," and Luvia.
Priest Augustus moved the slowest, so he blocked the direction of the door and window. Doctor Schneider was the fastest, blocking the direction leading to the dining room and the side bed first. "Dorothy" walked side by side with Luvia, blocking the In the direction leading to the master bedroom and study. The four formed a triangle and surrounded the two fist-waving people from a distance.
As Shad fought and retreated, he and the thief officially moved to the center of the living room.
Under the light of the gas lamp, the shadows of the four people around stretched out long lines, as if forming a triangular cage.
Of course, because the four of them didn't directly affect the story, they just stood there, so the people on the second floor of the Prophet's Association who were going through the last part of the story could only see the two puppets shaking their fists, but they didn't know what was going on. There were actually four other bystanders in one scene.
"No, I can't catch him like this!"
Priest Augustus reminded that although the old priest only had the second ring, he was quite knowledgeable. He said with a serious expression:
"[Thief Jack] is strong when you are strong, Xia De, you can't beat him with boxing, and you will be negligent sooner or later if you continue like this, but it won't."
"We have to think of a way. Since we have driven this thief to this extent, we can't let him escape!"
The doctor continued.
"Shad must not use the power of a ring warlock, otherwise the church will immediately know that he is a ring warlock."
Luvia and "Dorothy" stood together, and the blonde girl was a little nervous:
"Extraordinary power can't be used, maybe ordinary people's methods can do it. [Thief Jack] was suppressed by [Dice Story Collection], maybe we can let Shade get in touch with additional symbols and add extra judgment points for him."
"I can literally hear the sound of the dice falling!"
Xia De gritted his teeth, the enemy in front of him was as bad as his boxing skills, but his strength and speed were astonishing. Priest Augustus’ worries are actually superfluous. Even if Jack the Thief is strong, he is strong, but the relic does not have “another me”. At this time, the gentle female voice next to Xia De’s ear is helping him correct the direction of punching, trying to make him feel better. At least he didn't fall behind.
"Even if you find additional symbols, Jack the Thief will become stronger when he is stronger."
The doctor reminded, but Luvia already had an idea, and she is the one who is most familiar with [Dice Stories]:
"The Thief Jack is stronger when he is strong, which means that when he encounters an enemy, he must be stronger than the stronger one.
When she said this, Xia De and Rezia suddenly realized. The doctor and Priest Augustus didn't know what they were talking about, but they knew they had found a way.
"That's why the professor of [Truth Society] will give up the mission directly after a character dies!"
Goldilocks also understood:
"That makes sense."
"So, there is only one way for Xia De to win. Help him find someone who can cooperate with him and can add up points."
Priest Augustus guessed, and the blue-eyed psychiatrist suggested:
"Anat, can I take a step to help Shad. Even though I appear in the story because of this, I can say that I happened to visit him."
"No, only the manipulated characters in the story can meet the rules of adding assistance. We are just background characters in the story. Even if we help Shade, there is no rule effect of [Dice Stories Collection]. On the contrary, with Shade's current performance Without showing extraordinary strength, who among us would dare to go directly to help?"
Luvia immediately shook her head, and Dr. Schneider glanced at the two people shaking their fists and understood her point of view.
"Is it possible to [awaken the undead]? Awaken the corpse and manipulate the undead."
Priest Augustus spoke quickly. Although the people in the group more or less knew that the old man knew the undead thaumaturgy, it was still very surprising that the priest said such words so indifferently.
"No, the other two have already quit, and their corpses are now the background of the story."
This time it was "Dorothy" who gave the answer. Among the people here, she was the only one who saw the game process with her own eyes.
"Don't worry, I feel that I can hold on for a while. But the whisper element seems to be getting stronger and stronger, and the power of [Dice Stories] is affecting us."
Xia De said in a low voice, although the crackling sound was exaggerated, it was indeed the result of punching each other. Shad never knew he could throw punches so fast, and this was his first attempt to fight with all his fists without holding back, which was very interesting and useful.
"That is to say, only Xia De can help Xia De himself, but this is a paradox. Any power exerted on him, Jack the Thief will also have it."
Dr. Schneider said, but suddenly frowned again:
"It must be a part of Shad or belong to Shad in order to comply with the game rules of the angel-level relic [Dice Story Collection]; but it cannot be the power of Shad himself and his items, otherwise the sage-level relic [Thief Jack] will be If you meet the strong, you will be strong... Belonging to him, but not him, and being able to cooperate in throwing is part of the story."
"Luvia's guess is basically the same as my original idea. When it meets strong, it becomes strong. But when it encounters 100 people, it cannot become the sum of the power of 100 people."
Xia De laughed, staring at his opponent intently, swung his left and right fists alternately, blocked the opponent's kick with his right foot, and hit his head against the opponent's hood:
"Mine but not me, and has its own traits, skills, and traits to work with me. Throw it over, Dorothy!"
"...Because of [Thief Jack]'s characteristics, his boxing points are exactly the same as Shad Hamilton's, and his basic strength and speed are exactly the same as Shad Hamilton. The battle is even, please continue to roll the dice and proceed to the next round of battle."
The familiar voice sounded again, and Iluna, who had thrown the dice three times for this battle, reached out and took the two dice again.
"That does not work."
The people around also knew whether they could catch [Jack the Thief] tonight. At this opportunity, even Princess Adelina and Princess Margaret became nervous.
Miss Green behind Iluna patted Iluna's shoulder lightly:
"No, if this goes on, you throw 53 for the first time, 54 for the second time, and 55 for the third time. Even if you throw the dice every time, you can get more points than the last two times, but Hamilton Mister will lose sooner or later~www.mtlnovel.com~ When judging, [Thief Jack] had the same number of points as Shade for the first time, and maintained the extreme value of the previous number for the last two times.
Iluna also knows this truth. At this time, the dark golden balance above her head is emitting light, and the power of [Balance] covers the table, directly affecting the relic with the power of the chosen one, barely controlling the points. This is what she let The reason why the number of points increases sequentially each time. After the opponent's death, Iluna also grasped the key to the game. Although she has no sacrifice, she is the balance herself.
But the highest point of the dice is 100, and sooner or later she will let Shad's judgment point reach the real extreme value. Iluna knew that Shad was thinking of a way, and what she could do was to delay it for a longer time.
-----Off Topic-----
ps1: I would like to add that although Luvia saw Rezia's life ring in the last chapter, she did not notice the different runes on the life ring because she was focused on fighting against [Jack the Thief]. ring. Therefore, she did not realize that "Dorothy" was not Dorothy at this time.
ps2: What kind of traits and lists will the pet cat under normal circumstances have? 16058/10850592
