Chapter 937

"I think Miss Ye Meng Jia De has no problem; she did win by strength and did not cheat."

Dorothy finally manipulated the doll dragon puppet and judged it in the name of the Witch of the Forest.

This was also the truth.

After all, no matter how the Longshan City in the mist that Ye Meng Jia De manifested came about, she was able to summon it and borrow its power, so this was already her own strength, and there was nothing more to say.

Although Dorothy always felt that this Miss Ye Meng Jia De might be coming for her, she wouldn't lie with her eyes open because of this. Since she didn't cheat, she naturally had to return her innocence.

And the signboard of the Witch of the Forest was indeed easy to use. Once they heard her words, whether it was the other judges or the audience who were still making a fuss, they all quieted down. However, everyone was still looking at her, as if waiting for her to explain a few more words.

The Home Witch looked at Lancelot helplessly. This explanation work should have been the chief judge's, but it was thrown to her.

However, she didn't decline either. She conceived it briefly and then began to explain.

"Miss Ye Meng Jia De uses a special magic based on the inspiration attribute. Except for her target, only those with special inspiration talent can observe it, which is why everyone couldn't see her move. Of course, this is not Miss Ye Meng Jia De playing tricks; it's just that her power is very special. Just seeing it might cause damage, and even the arena magic circle cannot block that power, so not letting you see it is also a kind of protection."

Although Dorothy didn't know how Longshan City became the Kingdom of the Dead, it undoubtedly possessed part of the characteristics of the Netherworld system.

First is the unknowability.

The Netherworld is unknowable, so resurrection is not a rare thing in the Witch World, but witches who are resurrected will forget the memories in the Netherworld. They only know they have been to the Netherworld, but they will not remember the appearance of the Netherworld, nor will they retain the memories in the Netherworld. Those memories will only be remembered when they die again and return to the Netherworld.

This characteristic is a rule set by the Long Wang with the power of destiny, so it is naturally powerful, and even ordinary Sages may not be able to withstand it.

To be exempt from this rule, you either get a special establishment in the Netherworld like Dorothy, or you are the daughter of destiny like Sophie Liya, born with a pair of jade-level destiny magic eyes, or you have the strength of a high-level Sage.

But obviously, these three conditions are not something ordinary people can achieve. Therefore, even those opponents who were defeated by Ye Meng Jia De will not remember what they saw. The power of the Netherworld will directly cover their memories from the level of destiny until they return to the Netherworld later.

Secondly, Longshan City can awaken people's fear of death in their hearts.

The Netherworld represents death, and staring at the Netherworld is equivalent to looking directly at death.

There are few living things that are truly fearless of death. Even powerful witches will be afraid of death, even if they know they can be resurrected, but few people can truly achieve the state of viewing death as returning home.

After all, even without mentioning the fear brought by death itself, the unknowability of the Netherworld is enough to awaken witches' fear of the unknown.

And the double fear mixed together will breed more fear.

In fact, the horror movie genre most popular with witches on the Mana Web is still the theme of the afterlife in the Netherworld. It is precisely because of the unknowability of the Netherworld that various imaginations about the Netherworld were born.

Those horror movies often describe the Netherworld as various gloomy and terrifying appearances, telling of various weird and evil punishments inside.

Dorothy used to love watching these horror movies, but unfortunately, now that she knows the true appearance of the Netherworld, she can no longer look directly at those horror movies.

Oh, speaking of which, if Alice saw Longshan City, she wouldn't be scared into a breakdown like other players. After all, for a little witch, dying once is really like going home. She lacks true awe of death.

And the above two points actually won't cause any real harm, at most it will scare people, and it will be forgotten afterwards.

But the last point is different.

That is, the Netherworld has a certain death-inducing nature.

According to Dorothy's observation, although the shadow of Longshan City summoned by Ye Meng Jia De is not as instant-death as her Netherworld Gate, which can kill any witch in seconds, as the Kingdom of the Dead, the shadow of Longshan City still has a strong death-inducing nature.

Anyone who witnesses the shadow of Longshan City will be eroded and tempted by that extremely strong law of death, and then actively rush to death.

Although normally this death-inducing nature can be restrained, combined with the previously mentioned characteristic of arousing fear, this forms a chain reaction. A person who is already scared out of their wits and then tempted by death is really easy to commit suicide in a moment of excitement.

Even if you were just afraid of death, rushing to death the next moment sounds a bit contradictory and ridiculous, but there is always a certain self-destruction factor hidden in human nature.

For example, some people, when they see sharp knives and look at their own hands, always have an urge to touch the blade with their hands. Similarly, when standing on a high building or a cliff overlooking the bottom, even if they are scared to death in their hearts, they will inexplicably think about what it would be like to jump down.

This is the temptation of death.

In short, it is actually similar to Stockholm Syndrome. People sometimes always like that dangerous feeling. The more exciting and dangerous it is, the more they like it.

If all the audience were really allowed to look directly at the shadow of Longshan City, then God knows how many people would commit suicide in the arena today and among the audience watching the Mana Web live broadcast.

After all, all the characteristics above can be triggered as long as you see them, which is indeed a special ability that ordinary arena defenses cannot prevent.

Of course, seeing that the audience still seemed a bit difficult to understand, Dorothy thought for a moment, and then manipulated the doll dragon puppet to stand up.

"Pure language might be a bit difficult for everyone to understand, but Miss Ye Meng Jia De's magic is not convenient for me to reveal to you; that is her secret, so let's use a small trick to make an analogy."

I saw the cute doll dragon puppet make a gesture of putting on clothes, and after putting them on, she turned around to show everyone, and then asked.

"I just put on a piece of clothing that only true witch fans can see. Do you think it looks good?"

She mainly wanted to show that the magic that can only be seen with special inspiration really exists.

As for the clothes, they were really worn. The doll dragon was wearing a toy battle robe mimicked by Senior Fan Ni's tentacles. After all, no one is better at this kind of magic that only people with specific inspiration can see than Senior.

Of course, Dorothy was also looking forward to the audience's reaction. She was looking forward to someone standing up and saying that she was not wearing any clothes at all.

Well, come out, the little black fans of the Witch of the Forest.

"Hehehe, Witch-sama is so cute."

"Wow, seeing this scene, my ticket price is already worth it."

"Sen-bao, we love you forever."

These are the words of those true fans who saw the clothes. Their burning eyes made the Home Witch feel very insecure.

No way, the standard she set for witch fans is equivalent to the standard of devout believers among church believers. Ordinary fans don't meet the standard. Can there still be so many people?

Fortunately, what made Dorothy quite happy was that there were indeed a small number of audience members who seemed quite confused.

"Uh, what are you excited about? Isn't she wearing nothing?"

"Ah, can you really see those clothes?"

"Bad, although I quite like the magic of the Witch of the Forest, I really don't like chasing stars. Have I become a fake fan?"

"What, I just came out of seclusion, who is the Witch of the Forest?"

Well, the Home Witch felt relieved when she saw this.

Fortunately, fortunately, not everyone is a devout believer; there are still many mature, rational, and steady witches.

However, just as she finished rejoicing, someone in the audience suddenly exclaimed.

"Damn, it's actually true. I didn't like the Witch of the Forest that much, so I didn't see any clothes, but I just hypnotized myself, and now I am a true witch fan. I can really see the toy battle robe. Sen-bao, hehehe, you are so cute."

Dorothy immediately frowned, and then she saw the witch who exclaimed in the crowd.

Tsk, an acquaintance, it was the Eye Demon witch Ma Tilian who lost to Inanna not long ago.

But is your hypnotic magic eye supposed to be used like this?

The Home Witch was speechless.

But next, she was not just speechless, but furious.

"Uh, can you really see it if you believe it? Then I'll believe it and see?"

"Ma Tilian-sama, give me a hypnosis too, I want to see what's going on."

"I used to be just a passerby fan, but I didn't expect the Witch of the Forest-sama to be willing to perform and explain on the spot. I can learn new knowledge points while watching the game. She really, I'm crying, I love it, uh... Damn, it really appeared after I loved her."

Things seemed to be developing in a strange direction.

Dorothy saw with a dark face that that small group of passerby fans were quickly turning into devout believers.

She immediately looked at the Eye Demon witch fiercely, and even suspected whether she had been hypnotized, forgetting that this guy might be a shill hired by the Witch of the Forest.

This guy knows how to promote and attract fans.

Damn, I'll remember this grudge first.

The Home Witch gritted her teeth in her heart.

She decided not to speak anymore, so as not to let the already few passerby fans lose more.

However, no matter what, the questioning of Ye Meng Jia De was resolved, and the game continued.

However, the following games were honestly not worth watching. After all, after a cheater came in, others had no way to play.

Just like that, the game continued until late at night, and after fierce competition, the final of the youth group soon came to an end.

Ye Meng Jia De was the first without suspense; she killed whoever she caught, even Master Zhizhu or Inanna couldn't withstand that Netherworld power.

And the second place was Miss Inanna of Tyranny. She defeated Nuo E Luo Si, but faced with the shadow of Longshan City of Ye Meng Jia De, even if she opened the "Tyrannical Killing Heart Curse," she couldn't withstand it.

After all, the power of the Netherworld is not just an ordinary mental attack, nor does it mean that you can offset the fear of death under extreme anger.

As for the third place, it was Master Zhizhu, Nuo E Luo Si.

However, Dorothy saw at a glance that her teacher was slacking off; she didn't use her full strength at all when she dueled with Inanna.

After all, Master Zhizhu in the arena was just a puppet body, not her real body, and her true combat power, those giant war fortresses, were not seen at all. She, a puppeteer, didn't use a puppet sea, but fought one-on-one with Inanna, which was really enough.

However, the Home Witch didn't expose her teacher's slacking off. After all, this really couldn't blame her teacher for not being serious. After all, others burn mana when fighting, but she burns real gold and silver.

Other witches are like this, just need to fight happily, but we puppeteers need to consider more things, energy consumption, wear and tear of puppet parts, etc., all of which are money.

Those giant war puppets were not for one-on-one fighting at all; they were all high-consumption big killers. It is said that when the cannon fires, ten thousand taels of gold are spent. Once Master Zhizhu's war fortresses move, the fuel for the mana furnace alone could make her heart ache to death.

After all, the rules of the arena can only guarantee that you won't die and important equipment won't be destroyed. There is no guarantee for anything more. Some consumables used up are really used up, and the fuel for the mana furnace obviously belongs to consumables.

If this were on a real battlefield, you could use spoils of war to recover blood, or even make money, but using it in a duel, and a duel where you can't get first place, this is really meaningless.

Then just slack off.

However, no matter what, Dorothy enjoyed watching the game. She picked up a lot of experience from today's battle, a very good experience, which moved her inspiration, and she could go back to create a few more spells, and then fiercely circle points.

And when the game ended, Long Ma suddenly said.

"Dorothy, if you have time tomorrow, go home. I didn't have a chance to give you the birthday gift I prepared for you before."

Yu Feiliya said with some melancholy.

Sigh, she originally wanted to give her daughter a surprise, who would have thought that the Long Wang would appear halfway?

"Is there still a gift? What is it?"

The Home Witch's eyes lit up immediately.

Dad's previous gift had already surprised her very much, but she didn't know what Mom would give. With Long Ma's competitive personality, it was probably a good thing.

"Heh, I won't tell you. If you want to know, go home and get it."

Yu Feiliya snorted coldly, ignored her daughter's sparkling eye offensive, and turned and left.

Dorothy was helpless and decided to go home and see tomorrow.

As for why not go back tonight.

Sigh, have to go back to the Long Wang Palace. After all, the palace is a place where you can come and go as you please.

And just when she was about to meet up with her sisters at the entrance of the duel arena, she was suddenly stunned.

Just like when she came, the maid Guinevere was also waiting at the entrance, but besides her little lover Lancelot, there was an extra familiar melancholic blonde girl beside her.

Ye Meng Jia De.

"Good guy, waiting for me here, not acting anymore?"

As soon as Dorothy saw this ultimate weapon girl, she was both surprised and not so surprised. After all, she had thought before that the other party was coming for her, and now it was indeed so.

However, when she really stepped forward, a sentence from Lancelot made her numb.

"Dorothy, thank you for helping this girl out today. Let me reintroduce her. Her name is Mordred, the daughter of Arthur and Morgan, and Ye Meng Jia De is actually the name of the city sealed in her body."

Dorothy: "........"

... The Home Witch is confused...
