Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?-Chapter 572 -
Chapter 572: Harvesting Destiny
“A bit interesting, this should be a Domain Prototype, right? Have these Players developed [Transcendent Knowledge] to this extent?”
“It is indeed astonishing. Speaking of which, this should be beyond the students’ scope of response now, shouldn’t we…”
“Let’s wait a bit longer; once we sign the Witch's Contract, we cannot casually make a move.”
At this moment, above Modu, there were many figures hidden within space, silently observing everything happening in Modu right now.
And not long after, Transcendent Mentors from other Transcendent Academies would follow, or rather… facing such a formidable power, no one could remain indifferent.
Thus, Modu soon welcomed its guests.
“Look now The fastest to arrive turned out to be the Birdmen. Those wings on their backs really weren't grown in vain.”
As these words were spoken by some Witch from an unknown location, after the Transcendent Angels of the Holy Angel Academy descended, facing such a grand display and the Transcendent Witches who were merely watching the spectacle, even the Angel felt a bit intimidated.
Even the arrival of his companions did not bring him much sense of security; even the wings behind him instinctively retracted slightly.
As time passed, the Transcendent Elves and Transcendent Wizards from the Three Great Top-tier Academies also descended, and only then did they gain a slight footing.
Once they had confidence, naturally, they had to question the other party!
“Is this the arrangement promised by you Witches? Things have exceeded our expectations; do you still intend to let all the geniuses perish here?”
“Featherless bird, watch your words. We Witches never made guarantees in this regard. And geniuses? Are the geniuses you speak of the parasites you yourselves created to share Destiny?”
“You!”
The Holy Angel faction was completely stumped and didn't know how to reply, while the Transcendent beings from the other Transcendent Academies secretly chuckled.
But they couldn't laugh out loud, because the one being cursed also included them; it was just that the unlucky Holy Angel ran headlong into the Witch’s crosshairs.
“Then what do you suggest we do!”
“Just let it stew. We abide by the Witch's Contract we signed. You can try to rely on your own means, but you cannot violently destroy this Script Node.”
“Does that mean the Witch Academy does not plan to intervene?”
“We are not in a hurry. If you cannot stand our leisure… we can sign another Witch's Contract as a temporary supplementary clause to the previous one, but we worry you might not agree.”
At this moment, the Witches stated their purpose for being there in the most nonchalant tone.

“You are Tan Han, right? You are the first Child of Destiny we discovered. To be honest, your existence is simply a gift this world sent to us!”
“You… are the Player?”
After recognizing the current situation, Tan Han also quickly adapted.
Just a moment ago, she was separated from Shop Manager Xia Li, and they were attacked by monsters with strange appearances.
However, after she dodged, she fell into a trap and mistakenly entered this place.
“Of course! As Children of Destiny, you must be the darlings of this world’s Heaven’s Will, right? You are also a Transcendent… so you probably haven’t tasted failure yet… So today! How about I let you taste the flavor of failure!”
The Player laughed to himself, not giving Tan Han a chance to speak further.
He stood above, with the Creator Permission for this dungeon space appearing before his eyes.
The Player could use this permission to create trouble for everyone locked as a "Dungeon Challenger" within the dungeon.
It could be traps, scares, simulated opponents, or even simple attacks, etc.
He simply adjusted a few settings, created a few troublesome entities for Tan Han, and immediately caused Tan Han great distress.
Facing an unknown enemy without the strength to crush them, one would basically suffer a loss the moment they made contact.
And now… in just a few exchanges, Tan Han was injured, and as a price, Tan Han entered a spell transformation to slay all these monsters.
“Brilliant, brilliant! Then how about this one!”
If I were present at this moment, I would definitely realize that the monster created by the Player here was the ultimate form monster continuously optimized against spellcasters while I was crushing them!
While being overwhelmed, the Players had to rack their brains to think of ways to deal with me.
But when they used these monsters, which still couldn't deal with that figure (me), against others… the effect was surprisingly good!
Tan Han, without obtaining any intelligence on her opponents, suffered a complete failure through the triple crush of strength, experience, and methods!
The monster she faced seemed naturally designed to counter spellcasters; it didn't give Tan Han the slightest chance to strike.
“How is it, the taste of failure?”
“The taste of failure? Heh… that’s it?”
Tan Han spat lightly.
If it were before, she might still cling to the obsession of victory, but after having been taught lessons, failure was just an everyday occurrence.
Seeing the Player’s attitude at this moment, the Player’s face also became unsightly.
Because the spoils from these methods, previously used against the Children of Destiny, didn't even manage to harvest a single bit of Destiny?!
Clearly… the Children of Destiny they encountered before, as the darlings of the world, were invincible existences within their worlds.
They basically walked the path of invincibility. To the Players, these Children of Destiny were truly… enviable!
But the Players, relying on the power from beyond this world, broke the cradle of those worlds, letting those Children of Destiny experience what cruelty was.
They only needed to make these Children of Destiny experience unacceptable failure, or make them realize the truth, to cause a huge shock to their worldview, possibly even causing them to collapse completely.
And they could thereby directly harvest a large amount of Destiny, which was the so-called Game Qualification.
But now… not even a reaction?
The Player controlled the permission and violently threw Tan Han far away. After rolling several times, Tan Han crashed into a rising pixel block.
This was a sealed space; she had nowhere to hide.
But she was also frantically thinking of escape strategies, even if this was a dead end.
She continuously used the means she possessed, including… the power of the Great Seed of Knowledge.
Earth Vein Appraisal Spell… this was the first method she thought of.
She was actually quite fascinated by this almost unreasonable and terrifying method.
But after using the appraisal spell, the information was slow to display, which is why she was crushed.
Finally, the prompt information displayed by the Earth Vein Appraisal Spell made her spine turn cold.
In this space, the penetration of Earth Vein Information was so low that this ability could barely query the information presented by the Earth Vein!
But almost unable to query did not mean it could not query anything at all.
Even in the Void, which was nothingness, Earth Vein Energy could exist; how could a dungeon completely forbid it?
So, after acquiring information about these monsters, the Earth Vein Information suddenly matched something.
Then, the information presented wildly.
Tan Han didn't need to look; this information directly appeared in the Tree of Knowledge, integrated with her memory, like an instinctive cognition.
“It’s working again… What is going on…”
Tan Han muttered softly.
But the information kept presenting itself, even including information about these monsters, their weaknesses, and countermeasures—all appraised!
This was naturally the Great Seed of Knowledge applying for data synchronization with the Great Tree of Knowledge after its own knowledge reserves were insufficient.
After all, the owner of the Great Tree of Knowledge, which was me, was very familiar with these things—they were all failed products created by those Players painstakingly targeting me.
With the blessing of intelligence, after adjusting her state, Tan Han gradually reversed the crushed situation she was in.
“Tsk… Damn it, I am not here to be your sparring partner! Die!”
The Player watched as the pixel monsters created to deal with her gradually started struggling, gritted his teeth, and roared.
But at this moment, he dared not truly kill her, because the Game Qualification harvested from this Child of Destiny was only a single digit.
If he handed in this result in the end… he would probably have to retire on the spot.
He would even be judged by those Game Architects when he returned!
Judging him for violating the Game Qualification Act—the waste of Game Qualification resources was absolutely shameful!
So, no matter how angry he was or how much he tortured the other party, his bottom line was… he could not kill her!
But not killing her… didn't mean he couldn't torture her.
He still had many other methods.
Dealing with a girl, there were too many ways to drive her to collapse!
Disfigurement… crippling… humiliation… abuse…
These were the things they personally learned when studying how to harvest the Game Qualifications of Children of Destiny.
Basically, after squeezing the Destiny of the Children of Destiny to the end, they had to go through all these procedures for them—it was spiritual and physical torment, an insult and abuse of their personality, destroying everything they cherished!
These were the methods of the Players.
Every piece of Game Qualification the Players obtained was stained with the blood and tears of the Children of Destiny.
Every unrestrained action and laughter of the Players stemmed from the suffering and wails of the Children of Destiny.
These vanguard explorers chose such a life, chose all of this, and thus they could no longer turn back.
And just as this Player was preparing to initiate these procedures early, the entire dungeon space suddenly underwent a mutation!
The originally sealed dungeon space became unstable at this moment; the undulating pixel blocks divided the regular space into irregular areas.
Too many places became riddled with holes due to the rising and falling of the pixel blocks!
“This! What is going on!”
Facing this change, the Player frantically manipulated the dungeon permission.
He didn't remember controlling the dungeon permission like this, nor did he want to destroy the entire place!
He quickly opened communication to inquire about the situation; clearly, this was not something they could handle.
“Hey… what is going on? Why is the dungeon suddenly out of control?”
“I don’t know! You are asking too much! I am giving a unified reply now: I am searching for the cause of the problem!”
The voice of the commanding Player came from his communication module, but it was clear that the other party was also extremely anxious and had no time to reply to his question individually.
It could be seen from the reaction in the other party's tone that the problem was not just with the dungeon space he controlled, but with the entire dungeon space!
And at this moment, Tan Han also noticed this abnormality.
“Good opportunity!”
Tan Han looked towards the “pitch-black passage” that had caused her to fall earlier.
The current dungeon had become riddled with holes—it was the perfect opportunity for her to escape and leave here!
So she didn't care where those passages led; she knew that staying here was definitely a dead end!
The moment she left, Tan Han gathered a terrifying spell in her hand.
Before leaping into that passage whose destination was unknown, she fiercely shot this spell towards that Player.
When she was swallowed by the profound dungeon space, she only managed to hear the terrifying sound of the spell exploding.
Before she could express the joy of revenge, she fell into another space.
“Hiss… Fell again… This is… where?”
Tan Han looked around with a trace of bewilderment.
She had gambled right; she survived, but many new unknowns awaited her here.
Meanwhile, the Player who remained in the original dungeon space was heavily injured by Tan Han’s hasty strike.
The terrifying Fire Elemental explosion directly swept over his entire body, and it was precisely when his permission was out of control, so he was directly blasted away by this burst!
The terrifying high temperature seared his skin; even the combat armor on his body only saved his life.
“Damn bitch! I will make you suffer a fate worse than death! I will * you… Ahhhhh!”
The Player beat the ground in impotent rage, cursing incessantly, but he still had to turn off the pain perception; if he didn't, he would truly go mad!
Moreover, the continuous pain from the skin seared by the flame explosion would really take his life.
Just as this Player was struggling to get up, the commander’s voice also came from the communication module.
“The cause has been found. The dungeon we descended into was interfered with by an inexplicable force; the permission has been impacted and restricted… The current situation is not good and is likely unrecoverable…”
“Preliminary judgment: it might be the interference and balance of this world’s Will. We have been constrained!”
“But don’t worry… we will still receive full support from the Myriad Worlds Terminal, but the subsequent situation can only depend on yourselves…”
The commander even sounded somewhat unconfident at the end of his speech.
Because the trouble encountered in reality was even worse than what he was reporting now!
Their dungeon was strongly constrained by that power, and the permission was severely eroded.
They had rarely encountered this situation, but it was not without precedent, so he quickly drew a conclusion… This was the final counterattack of the World Will!
He hadn't expected them to touch this world's bottom line so quickly…
But he was also trying to find a solution.
If all else failed, he could only ask those Game Architects to debug the Myriad Worlds Terminal.
And at this moment.
Outside the dungeon.
“Now it’s fine; the difficulty has returned to normal mode. The rest depends on their own efforts. I have things to attend to, so I’m going back first.”
As that figure disappeared, the surrounding Transcendent Mentors breathed a slight sigh of relief—not just the Transcendent beings led by those from the three top-tier academies, but even the Transcendent Witches from the Witch Academy itself.
Because the person who made the move just now was one of the Academy Heads of the Witch Academy!
This was not Academy Head Mei Linde, who messed up her own Great Weakening Spell, nor was it Academy Head Bev Ailana, who was violent and liked to seek fun everywhere.
In the Witch Academy, those Witches whose names were unknown were the true existence that struck fear into the hearts of other Transcendent Academies…
Because they were powerful to the extent that they disdained stirring up trouble in this Main World, and even… the position of Academy Head was merely an honorary title.
It was unexpected that this one was alarmed this time!
