The Genderbent Uncle
Cong Yu responded softly, sounding annoyed, and Source Darkness An Apophis immediately followed suit.
[I don't own a dog, so my dog doesn't have a name, but my name is -- Source Darkness Apophis!]
"What I mean is, don't bother me when you have nothing to do. Your voice is neither male nor female and it sounds awful."
Cong Yu spoke very tactfully... Of course, he himself had no intention of being "tactful" at all.
[Oh, this... neither male nor female?]
Source Darkness An Apophis, seemingly unaware that his voice was neither male nor female and was unpleasant to hear, was instantly plunged into shock and Sorrow.
[Is that why you won't let me out? Your other techniques don't seem to have any gender bias, do they?]
"Don't talk nonsense. Jormungandr Train is a female snake, and you're the only one who can chatter on and on. It's fundamentally different."
While casually chatting with Source Darkness Apophis, Cong Yu awaited the repair of the barrier and the arrival of Moerae's Divine Art once again.
After that, Source Darkness Apophis fell silent.
I don't know if I've become withdrawn or if I've really started to reflect on myself.
"Cong Yu... this will never end."
Miss Lin spoke, having recovered from the high-speed ride on the Jormungandr Train: "I'll try to find a way to remove the barrier... or perhaps we can take Xian Kui with us."
After all, the Xian Kui Being can move, so there's no need for it to stay put and defend against the opponent's seemingly endless attacks.
Such a suggestion is obviously good, but in reality, King Odin has already gone to the edge of the barrier, preparing to dismantle it as he did last time.
But it's still necessary to head there now.
You could try searching for traces of Followers of Moerae released this barrier.
And at this time...
After a period of silence, Source Darkness Apophis spoke, her first words delivered in a high-pitched, childlike voice.
[Ahem, can I speak now? Can I still speak? Are you satisfied with me now?!]
It seems that during this period of preparation, Source Darkness was neither withdrawn nor reflecting on his actions, but rather began to try to change his voice.
However, its sound isn't much better than before.
"..." Cong Yu's face darkened instantly, as if he had turned into a black-faced Sea Tiger. His hand trembled, and he threw the sword directly at Xian Kui's feet.
Although it was caused by shaky hands, Cong Yu pretended it was intentional in order to maintain her fashionable image.
Watching Xian Kui draw his wooden sword, preparing to leave, Cong Yu muttered in a voice only she could hear, "Shut up... It's super, super disgusting."
[Ah?!]
What are you 'huh' about...? Stop talking, you stupid clamp.
Thinking this, Cong Yu directly gathered all the darkness back around herself, even taking back the eclipse darkness that Xian Kui had previously tainted.
Source Darkness An Apophis was immediately rendered speechless, as if his mouth had been gagged.
The world has become a bit quieter.
"Let's go."
As he said this, Cong Yu simply lifted his foot and stood on the Jormungandr Train appeared beneath his feet.
Then, as if walking normally, it lifted its leg and easily and lightly stood on the Giant Serpent's back.
Forest:"..."
Seeing that Miss Lin still seemed a little shaken, Cong Yu coughed lightly and reassured her, "We're not in a rush this time..."
"Don't worry, get in the car. We're going to check on King Odin. He previously..."
He told me he was going to deal with the barrier.
As Cong Yu spoke, she recalled how King Odin had dispelled the barrier last time... It seemed that he had used his staff and spear to directly break down the barrier's magic.
By the way, barriers are not Divine Art; only Divine Punishment Divine Art.
The barrier possesses some characteristics of Art Beyond Sorcery spell. However, it is still a spell at heart, so it can be broken using conventional methods.
However, that would raise a problem.
As Cong Yu was thinking this, Miss Lin had already gotten into the car with Xian Kui. Then she said, "King Odin...? Perhaps something unexpected happened on the way, otherwise he wouldn't have been so slow."
Yes, just as Miss Lin said, King Odin shouldn't have been this slow in breaking the barrier.
Reaching the edge of the barrier, he thrust his staff towards it.
It should have been that easy, and the barrier should have been broken much earlier.
But will something really happen to King Odin?
Cong Yu expressed doubt.
Then, just as he thought, "Impossible, absolutely impossible," something suddenly happened...
"Boom!!!!"
A violent explosion!
Looking around, near the residential area close to the edge of the barrier, pillars of eerie blue fire shot into the sky with each explosion.
"..."
"???" Where is Lantian Zhu over there? Is she fighting with something?
Cong Yu frowned, sensing that things were not so simple. He turned to look at Miss Lin and Xian Kui, who both had a bad feeling.
Then, Cong Yu prepared to start the Jormungandr Train. He spoke urgently, "Both of you hold on tight, we need to hurry!"
Forest:"..."
Forest:"!!!"
Not again?!
Chapter 702 The Gender-Transformed Uncle
"I am Magical Girl Shining☆-chan. Please do not stand here and go back to your homes or hide in the surrounding buildings as soon as possible."
Yaochuan Guang shouted in broken China, then repeated it several times in fairly fluent English.
Lantian Zhu and Xiao Cui were also helping to inform the crowd, telling them not to gather around to watch the show... and to quickly hide.
For some reason, the three of them inexplicably felt that the China were somewhat fearless, or perhaps... simply had a strong interest in watching a spectacle.
People from Wind City are known for their love of watching a spectacle.
It's a city in Japan where "people pass by indifferently," yet it enjoys watching the excitement. But it's only among the best in Japan.
In the context of China's overall environment, it's still not quite up to par.
Of course, this isn't exactly a praiseworthy advantage...
At least for now, Yaochuan Guang and the others feel very tired.
"Evacuate immediately! Evacuate immediately! Go home!"
Yaochuan Guang shouted this, while Takemikazuchi, who was standing to the side with an amused expression, habitually chimed in, "Go hobo! Go homo--"
His pronunciation was a bit strange, but he himself didn't have any other thoughts about it.
Moreover, Takemikazuchi didn't really intend to evacuate the crowd; he even took out his phone from the waist bag that Cong Yu had given him.
Takemikazuchi held his phone in his two paws and took a selfie of himself and the Great Barrier behind him, intending to share it in the group chat.
The photo had just been taken and I was preparing to edit it and post it when I suddenly heard a loud roar.
Boom!!!
Then, Takemikazuchi and the magical girls looked up and saw countless runes bursting and exploding.
A magical script with a unique charm, different from modern spell incantations, exploded from the edge of the barrier.
"Is that... Odin's spell?"
Takemikazuchi recognized him and tilted his head slightly, wondering if King Odin was fighting with someone.
It's quite strange. Odin such a powerful fighter, he should be about as strong as Cong Yu, so why are they fighting so fiercely?
With this in mind, Takemikazuchi decided to go and see what the fuss was about.
"I'll go check on the situation over there."
As he explained this to Xiao Cui and the others, Takemikazuchi's figure instantly transformed into a bolt of blue and purple lightning.
Just as he was about to rush towards the source of the Rune Letters explosion, another explosion came from that direction.
"Boom!!!"
A dazzling white light bombarded something, carrying immense force as it flew towards the group.
The terrifying wind pressure swept through the surrounding houses, causing countless civilians to cry out for help in panic.
"Aaaaaah!!"
"Help!"
"Holy crap!!"
"Poke the wood girl!!!"
"Caw? What's that now?!"
"..." However, in the end, the Light Cannon did not hit the houses... but gradually dissipated just before it hit the civilian area.
It did not disappear on its own.
Instead, it was the "person" who resisted the beam of Light Beam that completely neutralized its power... that was the person who was being bombarded by the light and flying this way.
"Ugh... How despicable! My bones are about to fall apart."
As he spoke, King Odin, who had stopped the beam of Light Beam, panted as he emerged from the magical aura surrounding him, which had transformed into countless characters.
"Huh? Odin?"
Takemikazuchi asked curiously, shouting to attract King Odin's attention from nearby, "Odin! Hey! I'm here!"
In response, King Odin turned to look at Takemikazuchi and nodded at him. "It's just a coincidence that you're here, Takemikazuchi."
"Help us evacuate the civilians. The enemy doesn't mind targeting ordinary people... What a terrible guy."
With that, King Odin could no longer respond to Takemikazuchi. He held his scepter in his hand and stretched out his hand to write something in the air.
All sorts of techniques appeared around.
It fell silent within the space, transforming into a temporary, usable aid belonging to King Odin.
This also shows what a troublesome "enemy" he's talking about is, after all...
Under normal circumstances, this step is not necessary.
"Enemies? What enemies?"
Takemikazuchi asked a thought-provoking question, looking completely bewildered. "Then... should I ask Cong Yu for help?"
In truth, Takemikazuchi really wanted to say, "Do you need my help?" But he also knew his own limitations.
It might actually cause more trouble.
While Takemikazuchi was asking questions, Yaochuan Guang and the others had already begun evacuating the civilians from the area, as King Odin had instructed.
That's what makes magical girls so great.
In response to Takemikazuchi's question, King Odin nodded. "Inform Cong Yu. Although I can handle it myself..."
"But in such a foreign land, it's ultimately not a good thing for the fighting to cause too many losses."
The subtext of this statement is that if King Odin were to go all out, he could defeat the opponent, but the commotion and destruction would be considerable.
Letting the rain make things a little quieter.
Upon hearing this, Takemikazuchi was immediately relieved... It seemed that this was not a particularly formidable enemy, at most on par with the Snow Woman.
Odin looks so disheveled; he must have been ambushed.
The instant Takemikazuchi thought this, he knew he was wrong... because King Odin's predicament wasn't due to that.
It's not that the other party is despicable and evil enough!
