Monster Completion Plan (Seven)
Despite the pressure of merging with monsters to share most of the burden, there were still many magical girls along the way, and all sorts of colorful magic attacked the group running towards the Cross Tree.
The towering giant, carrying the others in one hand to his chest, crouched low, like holding a rugby ball, and charged toward the opponent's penalty area. His three wings flapped behind him, defying all the opponent's magic, and he slowly approached his target.
"We're almost there!" Jiang You could clearly see the giant Cross Tree. Once the five of them, who possessed the Marshal Magitek Device, reached their destination, they could forcibly shut down the magic center. Without the magic center's support, the magical girls would have virtually no combat power. At that point, they could destroy the magic network and restore everything to normal.
A tentacle reached out from behind and wrapped around Jiang You's right foot. The immense force caused Jiang You to lose his balance and fall forward. He stepped forward with his left foot to steady himself and turned around. He saw that although the fused monster was still devouring other magical girls, its enormous body was floating towards them. Clearly, part of its consciousness had been taken over by the magical girls.
Some magical girls who couldn't make it in time even willingly Integration into this giant monster, making it stronger and more lucid.
The creature floated in the air, its enormous body resembling a dark cloud that blotted out the sky. However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that this monster was composed of countless tentacles, chunks of flesh, eyeballs, mouths, and other living limbs.
The tentacle currently gripping Jiang You's right leg is merely the longest of all the tentacles. A bone sword springs from the three-winged giant's wrist, flowing with magma and ice, while also covered in blood-red claws—an effect effective against living beings.
With a swing of his sword, Jiang You severed the tentacles. He dared not linger and continued running towards his destination, but more and more tentacles reached out towards the three-winged giant.
"So it really is going to end like this?" In the giant's palm, several users of the Marshal Magitek Device looked at Kokoro opposite them, recalling her words: "Because the Marshal Magitek Device is divided into five parts, its functions are also divided into five parts."
"In reality, the true magic of Marshal Magitek Device lies in the complete fusion of five types of magic: Fusion, Homology, Amplification, Spirit, and Field. This is the magic of a god, a magic capable of granting one complete godhood."
"The beacon retrieval spell I planted on you is meant to ensure the Marshal Magitek Device remains intact should the situation become unmanageable, thus securing a final hope. However, the condition for activating this spell is the death of the beacon's controller..."
More and more tentacles wrapped around the three-winged giant. The giant wielded his bone sword, using all his strength to break free from the tentacles' grasp. But the giant was like a human stuck in a quagmire, only sinking deeper and deeper until he lost his ability to move and was swept into the Marine Species tentacles, drifting further and further away from the Cross Tree.
"Since we're going to die anyway, might as well... never mind, I don't know what to say. Anyway, you're getting off easy, kid!" Zhang Yaoling had a dead fish look in her eyes. It was quite a burden for her to be a widow wielding mental magic.
Clutching her head, throbbing from overexertion, Zhang Yaoling leaped from the giant's grasp and lunged directly at the massive, fleshy black cloud. Just before the slimy tentacles engulfed and devoured her, a dazzling light burst forth. "The Last Mental Magic!"
The enormous chunk of flesh lashed out wildly with all its tentacles, even its floating stopped. Taking advantage of this, the three-winged giant severed the tentacles that were binding it, regained its mobility, and continued walking forward.
However, with a large number of wildly flailing tentacles ahead, the three-winged giant was moving very slowly. Su Yao glanced at the others and smiled, "Remember me, everyone!"
"Field: Unobstructed Track!" A straight track was opened up. Since it was Unobstructed Track, everything that was not a runner would be repelled. Those waving tentacles were all repelled by the power of the field.
"Then giant, run!!" Su Yao shouted at the three-winged giant, standing still. With Su Yao's abilities, activating a field of this level would render the giant unable to move in order to maintain its existence.
The three-winged giant ran on the track, glanced back at Su Yao, who was smiling and giving a thumbs-up, but dared not stop. Finally, the chaos caused by Zhang Yaoling's mental magic ended, a point of light floated towards the three-winged giant, and the huge monster returned to normal.
A tentacle swung over and slapped Su Yao's head. Su Yao, who was still in the same position, had his head shatter into pieces. Then, the tentacle pressed down and crushed his entire body into a pulp.
The field shattered, turning into a point of light, which, along with Zhang Yaoling's point of light, Integration the giant's body. The giant roared and ran forward, liquid flowing from his gray-white eyes, and a pair of wings grew back on his back.
One of the wings was white, symbolizing spiritual power. The spiritual power surged in, turning all the remaining spiritual energy into pure white, which was absorbed by Jiang You, rapidly strengthening his spirit and allowing him to reach an unprecedented level of control over this giant's body.
The other wing is blue, symbolizing the power of the field. Around the giant's body, a spherical field centered on the giant expands, and the golden, polygonal field power repels all the tentacles that try to wrap around it again.
"It's still not enough!" Li Xiao raised his head and looked at the sky. Although the five-winged giant's strength had greatly increased, the monster that had improved even more and had transformed into something that had covered the entire sky. Although the giant's force field could push away those tentacles, it was still too insignificant compared to that monster.
"Well then, everyone, I'll take my leave first!" Li Xiao, a classically beautiful girl who didn't say much, bowed to everyone, then jumped off the giant's palm and out of the giant's force field protection range. A tentacle pierced through her, directly penetrating Li Xiao chest.
"She's my type! Little sister, I'm going to pursue happiness. Take care of yourself!" Gu Huihong watched as Li Xiao jumped down after her, only to be pierced by the same tentacle. Holding Li Xiao's corpse, she asked, "Li Xiao, are you into lesbians?"
With the Integration of the last two beacons, orange wings representing amplified power and purple wings of the same origin grew out from behind the giant. Connected by the same source of power, all the beacons merged into the giant's body, causing a qualitative change in the giant's power.
The divine force field repelled everything around it, even the fused monster's enormous body was completely pushed away, and a giant with seven wings—no, an angel—appeared before the Cross Tree covered in tentacles.
The Marshal Magitek Device had become a fully-fledged angel, possessing powerful control over the magic network. He flapped his seven wings, tears streaming down his perfect face, and uttered a divine decree.
"All is over!"
