Scorpio Inside Was a Little Girl

Li Yu's combined attack caused an effect akin to a nuclear explosion, with a mushroom cloud rising into the sky, and Scorpio was instantly vaporized by Li Yu's True Magic.

Everyone was now in a safe place. Seeing the huge commotion before them, they were truly dumbfounded. Xia Yu couldn't help but complain in the public chat, "Class monitor, are you lying to us?"

"She could have handled it by herself, so why did they send so many of us? Just to gain experience points?" She was incredibly frustrated if that were the case.

She only needs to cast one True Magic; there's no need for her to strain her magic power so drastically. A simple touch with any True Magic will suffice.

"That's right, you were just trying to gain experience points. Going all out to prove you contributed!" Li Yu said, giving a thumbs up. "You guessed right. I was just kidding. Otherwise, how would you gain experience points?"

Everyone was helpless at this point. Wouldn't it have been better if they had said so earlier? They sighed and didn't bother to pursue the matter any further, their eyes fixed on the area where the explosion had occurred.

As the light from the explosion slowly dissipated, a bottomless crater appeared before them. Scorpio had vanished completely, utterly disappeared by Li Yu's True Magic.

Li Yu activated his senses, and the next moment, Li Yu somewhat surprised. He hurriedly flew down from above. The others also subconsciously activated their senses and discovered what was in the pit.

Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all rushed downwards. Li Yu was the first to arrive at the middle of the pit, where he saw a little girl curled up, with several red beads the size of basketballs scattered around her.

"How is this possible? A cursed child?" Looking at the child, Mahiru Shiina's eyes were full of disbelief. She quickly went forward to treat her.

At this moment, Asagi Aiba voice, "A cursed child with a high level of corruption will turn into Gastrea. It seems that this stage five is what the child has become."

She had read a lot of information, so she knew this very well. When the others heard this, their expressions changed instantly, and everyone looked at Asagi Aiba. Xia Yu asked somewhat uncertainly, "Are you saying that all those Gastrea we killed before might have been children in disguise?"

She could hardly believe what she was hearing. If it was true, then they were... This news was too much for her to accept!

"No! Not all Gastrea are. It's estimated that only a small number will become Gastrea. After all, there are so many Gastrea, there can't be that many children. Many animals will also become Gastrea." Li Yu shook his head.

He gathered up the materials that had fallen to the ground, then focused his attention on the child who was completely unconscious. He knelt down and reached out to touch the child's head.

Then he slowly said, "This child's potential is monstrous, which is why she's already at stage five. Her current strength is already at level four, without having undergone any training."

Li Yu carefully sensed the child's physical abilities and found them to be terrifyingly strong. The child was already at the fourth level; if properly trained, he would be truly extraordinary!

This made Li Yu realize that perhaps only children with this kind of aptitude could reach stage five? Moreover, she survived a True Magic from Li Yu and was even directly reverted to her original form.

Hearing Li Yu's words, everyone felt somewhat relieved, but at the same time, they were incredibly shocked. That was truly terrifying! To have fourth-tier strength at such a young age? And fifth-tier... hadn't that existed for many years?

According to the information in this world, these Stage 5 Gastrea already appeared during the Gastrea Virus outbreak, which was more than ten years ago. If we calculate based on that, the child in front of us would be a little over ten years old?

"She seems to have fallen into a deep coma, and I can't wake her up!" Just then, Mahiru Shiina spoke up, saying that after some treatment, her body was fine.

However, she didn't know the deeper reasons behind the situation. She couldn't figure out why the other person was unconscious, which frustrated Mahiru Shiina greatly, as it was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

"Take her back first, let the people over there worry about it themselves." After saying that, Li Yu picked her up. This child definitely had to be taken back; how to treat her was not something Li Yu could consider.

The others nodded in agreement. That was all they could do for now; they should just send the child back to Teacher Nangong for treatment.

"Then let's go back!" Xia Yu hurriedly said upon hearing this. She had come here just to cast a True Magic, which had really annoyed her. Next time she encountered something like this, she definitely wouldn't use up all her magic power again.

Everyone nodded and prepared to leave the pit and return to the Tokyo Area. However, Li Yu's next move left everyone completely bewildered.

"Running back is too slow. Let's just activate the mark Natsuki-chan left for us; it'd be a waste not to." Who wants to go through the trouble of running back?

When they arrived, Nangong Natsuki left a spatial mark for everyone, which allows them to return directly to their original location, so there was no need for them to make a trip.

Li Yu himself has mastered the method of active activation, and he will even actively imprint it on everyone. Activating this imprint and returning to the source is undoubtedly the fastest way.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu activated the mark on his forehead. The next moment, a purple Space Magic circle appeared beneath everyone's feet, and they began to teleport.

Everyone was speechless. Xia Yu couldn't help but complain, "I hope Teacher Nangong doesn't scold me to death for doing this!!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was teleported away from their original location. Nangong Natsuki Nangong Natsuki sensed the activation of the Magic Array, and frowned as she was at home.

Why were all those guys' marks activated? Nangong Natsuki was puzzled. She immediately teleported away from where she was and reappeared in the underground room.

This was the exact location where Li Yu and the others had initially teleported. Not long after she appeared, Li Yu and the others appeared here. Seeing that everyone was alright, Nangong Natsuki was somewhat puzzled.

Immediately, her gaze fell on the little girl in Li Yu's arms. Nangong Natsuki's eyes flashed, and she appeared directly in front of Li Yu, then reached out and touched the little one in Li Yu's arms.

"What's going on? Is this little guy also a cursed child?" After sensing the situation for a moment, Nangong Natsuki was dumbfounded. She could already feel the other party's strength.

Isn't this a bit too much? To have fourth-tier physical abilities at such a young age? Isn't that dangerous? But what's going on with her current state?

"She's Scorpio, a Stage 5 Gastrea from that world. This child appeared after we killed the Scorpio," Li Yu explained.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Natsuki instantly understood what it meant. She looked at the child with some disbelief and said, "Scorpio... I see. No wonder you have such great talent. So you used that mark to come back for her sake?"

Li Yu nodded, glanced at the little one in his arms, and couldn't help but say, "Mahiru has already treated her, but she can't wake up, so I brought this child back to give to you."

After understanding the situation, Nangong Natsuki nodded. At the same time, she suspected that Li Yu had activated the mark to avoid traveling, and she thought to herself with a hint of disapproval. She immediately said, "I understand. I will have someone examine the child thoroughly. If it's not working, I'll have Miach come over."

Nangong Natsuki took the little girl from Li Yu's arms. After glancing at Li Yu and the others, she said, "Go out from here, go up, and you'll be back there. You can make the mark yourself, so just do it!"

After saying that, Nangong Natsuki disappeared from the spot and began to take the child for a check-up. As for Li Yu and his group? They were no longer her concern. They were all adults; why should she bother with them?

After Nangong Natsuki left, Li Yu and the others also left the room. They went through the stairs of the passageway and arrived at the top, where the passageway plaza was located.

Li Yu didn't rush back. Instead, he gathered with the others in a corner of the square to discuss the matter. After glancing at them, he couldn't help but ask, "Did any of you gain any experience just now?"

If not, then Li Yu will have to change his strategy. If he does, he'll continue farming like this, letting everyone touch it, and then Li Yu will go all out to eliminate the Gastrea.

In response to Li Yu's question, everyone nodded. Asuna spoke first, "When the Gastrea was defeated, we gained a huge amount of experience, equivalent to what we get from grinding in the Dungeon for several days."

Asuna explained her situation, and the others chimed in, especially Bell and Haruhime, who were the weakest but had gained the most experience.

They figured they'd level up after killing just one more. The two explained their situation to Li Yu, Li Yu, after listening to their explanation, stroked his chin and said, "Looks like the plan will succeed. In that case, let's continue."

After saying that, Li Yu looked at Asagi Aiba and said, "Asagi, could you please organize the remaining Five-stage Gastrea and kill them in the order they are most recent? Then have the Seitenshi arrange for planes to be sent to us."

Some of the fifth stage locations are quite far away, so they need to use transportation; otherwise, if they tried to run, who knows how long it would take them to get there.

Asagi Aiba nodded upon hearing Li Yu's words, saying, "I'll arrange all of that when I get back. There won't be any problems with the Seitenshi."

She was equally excited about what was to come. This was the first time she had gained so much experience, so she was naturally quite looking forward to what was to come. Maybe she could even use this opportunity to break through to the Fifth Tier?

The group returned to that world, and Asagi Aiba immediately began making arrangements, directly informing the Seitenshi that they needed a transport plane.

Upon hearing the news, the Seitenshi immediately replied, "No problem, I will have someone prepare everything for you right away, and I will get you to your destination as soon as possible."

After speaking, she hesitated for a moment before adding, "If you're going to other cities, people from other places can cooperate. They know about the other world, and they'd prefer to cooperate."

She recounted what had happened since Asagi Aiba left. Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Asagi Aiba's eyes. Those guys actually wanted to cooperate?

However, after a moment's thought, Asagi Aiba understood. In a situation where they were no match for the enemy, they had no choice but to fight back. If they chose to become enemies, they would only face certain death.

Cooperation is the best option, but not everyone is qualified to cooperate. Even if they wanted to, their side might not be interested. Thinking of this, Asagi Aiba.

"I understand. I'll talk to Li Yu about this, and then the class monitor will relay it to the higher-ups." She didn't intend to get involved, since she didn't have much say in the matter; it was best to leave it to Li Yu to handle.

The Seitenshi nodded, and wisely refrained from continuing the discussion on the matter. After the two had agreed on these things, the Seitenshi immediately began making the arrangements.

Asagi Aiba then told Li Yu about these matters. After hearing the news from the Seitenshi, Li Yu nodded and said calmly, "I understand. I will tell Teacher Nangong."

For the same reason, he didn't intend to get involved. He'd leave this matter to Nangong Natsuki; what did it have to do with him? Right now, Li Yu only had one goal.

That means completely taking down the remaining Stage 5 areas, and Li Yu also wants to see how many children can be unleashed.

After the decision was made, the group set off again the next day. Led by the Seitenshi's guard, they arrived at a military airport and boarded a transport plane to head towards the next Stage 5 Gastrea.

The transport plane took Li Yu and the others directly to the vicinity of the nearest Gastrea. This time, Li Yu and the others were to deal with Leo, a Gastrea in a primeval forest.

This Leo is a massive four-legged beast, not only possessing multiple heads, but even its individual hairs can transform into tentacles. In addition, it has a powerful sonic attack.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters, after Li Yu and the others reached their destination, the hatch opened directly, and Li Yu jumped out first. None of them brought parachutes because there was no need for them, even if they couldn't fly.

As long as you're not afraid of heights, you can easily levitate for a while if you have the Lightness Technique. As long as you react when you land, you won't die from the fall. But Li Yu and the others can fly!

Even if the others weren't very skilled, they could still fly. The new students could get help from others. The group used their Lightness Technique to freefall directly from ten thousand meters in the air.

While in mid-air, Asuna manipulated the wind to move, then came to Li Yu's side and said, "Should we attack first, or discuss it after we land?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu glanced down and then said, "I'll give everyone a buffer. Everyone, use the Piercing Magic Cannon to attack downwards. I'll launch the final attack to try and finish this off in one go."

The group landed some distance from Leo, not directly on its head. Once they were within attack range, they attacked together, eliminating it in one fell swoop, and then moved on to the next one.

Li Yu's words were transmitted to everyone's ears through the markings, and everyone immediately understood the upcoming battle plan, so they all drew their weapons.

"Let's just gain experience points," the group thought, "As long as it improves our strength." They began to adjust their state, and after they landed at a certain position, an updraft appeared.

The moment they sensed the updraft, everyone used their Lightness Technique, which suddenly lifted them up, allowing them to move around a little more easily.

Those who could use Flight Magic quickly adjusted their state, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the Leo. Then they raised their staffs and began to cast True Magic.

One by one, Magic Array lit up in the sky. This time, unlike Xia Yu before, no one drained their magic power completely, since everyone was still in the air.

No one wanted to be smashed into a pulp upon landing because they had run out of magic; that would be too embarrassing. The gathering of magic immediately alerted Leo below, who quickly stood up from its prostrate position.

The heads locked onto the group in the sky, then let out a roar, unleashing a terrifying sonic attack. Visible ripples hurtled towards Li Yu and the others at an alarming speed.

"Shield of Sighs!" Li Yu reacted first, and a Magic Array was generated in the air, instantly enveloping everyone. At this moment, a giant bubble surrounded everyone.

The sonic attack also came crashing down at that moment. After all, the speed of the sonic attack was very fast, and the white ripples pressed down on Li Yu and the others from all directions without any blind spots.

However, under the protection of Li Yu's Shield of Sighs, these attacks were completely blocked, leaving only a few ripples on the shield.

"Attack!" Li Yu gave the order, and everyone fired their Piercing Magic Cannon, sending beams of white light crashing down from the sky toward Leo.

After the attack, the group quickly adjusted their positions. Those who couldn't fly were caught by other students, and then they began to make an emergency descent downwards.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The magic cannons rained down, hitting the Leo precisely. It had thought its attack would wipe out the group of humans, but it was unexpectedly blocked. This meant it had no chance to dodge and could only watch helplessly as the magic cannons bombarded it!
