The battle against Night of the Witches was indeed more difficult than battles against other witches.
Fang Zheng quickly realized this after coming into actual contact with it.
The familiars Night of the Witches could control were quite powerful, almost on par with an ordinary witch. There were also a great many of them. According to Akemi Homura, when she and Madoka had fought Night of the Witches before, it had not controlled so many familiars. Most likely, the large number of Magical Girls who had come this time had provoked Night of the Witches into releasing even more familiars.
Of course, aside from its numerous and powerful familiars, Night of the Witches itself was also extremely formidable.
Not only did it have a wide attack range, it could even manipulate the ruins of nearby skyscrapers to launch attacks. Fortunately, these Magical Girls were all strong and battle-hardened, allowing them to handle the trouble.
However, the biggest problem was exactly as Akemi Homura had said.
No health bar.
Of course, there were no health bars in reality to begin with, but this did not simply refer to health points. It was more of a similar concept.
The witch of Night of the Witches was not invulnerable. In fact, attacks from Magical Girls of this world, such as Mami Tomoe, Kyoko, and Akemi Homura, as well as Magical Girls from other worlds, such as Sakura and Nanoha, were all effective against it.
But they just could not kill it.
Of course, that did not mean Fang Zheng lacked a trump card capable of killing it in one strike.
"Illya!"
"Understood!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's command, Illya hurriedly leaped out and landed on the railing. She then reached out, took out a card marked "LANCER," and placed it atop her wand.
"Phantasm Install!"
