Chapter 282
"Why..."
Upon hearing this, Aurora finally spoke.
She raised her head, her eyes bloodshot, and gritted her teeth as she questioned Rose:
"Your goal... if it's just me... why... why did you kill Kelly?! Why?!"
"Kelly? Is it that phone?" Rose tilted her head, looking at Aurora, and explained, "It's the 'Oracle'."
"... Oracle?"
"Yes, the angel was seduced by the demon, and the demon is hiding in the red container... This is a divine Oracle given to me by the True God!"
Rose said loudly, "It is because you have been bewitched by the demon that you are unable to return to the True God's side. We have no choice but to send you back in this way! It's normal that you don't understand us, but... once you return to the True God's side, you will understand everything we have done!"
Her expression was devout as she looked up at the sky and at the faceless statue behind Aurora, as if she were seeing what she considered to be her True God.
She said, "The True God will fulfill our long-cherished wish!"
"What a load of bull!!!"
Tears streamed down Aurora's face as she glared at them with a ferocious and furious expression, roaring, "I will kill you all!! I will absolutely... I will absolutely kill you all!!!"
"Ah... how pitiful the angel..."
Rose stepped forward, looking at Aurora with a sorrowful expression. She whispered, "The angel has been completely bewitched by the devil. Believers—let us return the angel to the True God!"
She ignored Aurora's roar and turned to the townspeople behind her.
The residents, who were prepared in advance, poured easily combustible gasoline onto the firewood at Aurora's feet.
The torch is already lit; with just a gentle toss, Aurora will instantly become a human torch.
Just as the torches were about to be thrown at Aurora, suddenly, the ceiling shattered, and a blue figure descended into the midst of the crowd like a god.
As soon as it landed, the blue figure fired a shot into the sky without hesitation.
Before the bullets even left the house, they suddenly exploded in mid-air, and clear, icy water poured down like a torrential rain, landing on everyone present.
The torches were extinguished, and fine frost formed on everyone's heads.
Rose looked at the blue figure, but before she could react, a gun was pointed precisely at her forehead.
"!"
"... Release them."
The blue-haired figure spoke coldly.
It's Luna.
After confirming that everything in the town was the work of these cultists, she rushed over immediately.
And they rescued Aurora just in time!
[OP plays.]
(Damn it, isn't this town just a bunch of brainwashed lunatics?!)
(No big problem. In reality, this town is already under military control, and Little Red in the Sky Screen has been rescued by Xiao Lan. Now we just need to watch them die.)
(The True God they're talking about, could it be someone from the Aurora Society?)
(No doubt about it, it's the Aurora Society!)
(After all, that small town in reality hasn't 'heard' an Oracle for months...)
(The Aurora Society all shut down a few months ago, it's hilarious, is this what they call True God?)
(For the first time now, I think Luna's habit of casually pointing a gun at people is absolutely fantastic. If she could just shoot them in the head immediately, I think it would be even better!!)
Volume 3 Side Story <Magical Girl Aurora>: Chapter 309 Aurora Goes Berserk!
The comments on the screen drew everyone's attention to Luna.
Luna froze under everyone's gaze. She instinctively looked away, put down her fork, and whispered:
"I... have changed... my habits..."
Lien explained, "Luna also feels that it's not good to point a gun at people casually, so she's been trying hard to change that habit."
"Can I ask you a question?" Xiao Qiu raised her hand.
Lien nodded, indicating that Xiao Qiu could ask whatever she wanted.
Xiao Qiu blinked. "Why does Luna have the habit of pointing a gun at people?"
"Isn't this all her father's fault?" Lien explained helplessly, "Luna's father once said, 'If you encounter someone you don't like, someone you think is dangerous, or someone you feel you can't handle, just pull out a gun and point it at them, it'll work!'... and so on. Plus, Luna was little, so..."
"... No wonder they run an arms company."
Chen Xiaoxia muttered a complaint under her breath.
Luna has carried a gun since she was a child. After her father assured her that she wouldn't fire a gun indiscriminately, she would even carry an unloaded pistol to school.
The pistol gave Luna a sense of security, and coupled with her father's 'thoughtful' upbringing, Luna developed the habit of immediately pulling out her gun to 'talk' to anyone she sensed was dangerous.
Things were alright at school. The teachers knew about Luna's situation and proactively explained it to Luna, telling her to try not to pull out her gun.
Even if there are no bullets, that won't do!
In addition, since most of the children at school were Luna's age, there weren't many people who could make Luna feel threatened or upset, so Luna didn't cause any trouble in that regard.
But outside...
There was more than one unfortunate soul who had Luna pointing a gun at him.
Perhaps that's why, despite Luna's deep longing for the wizarding world, her Magical Armament turned out to be a gun...
Luna's pistol was pressed against Rose's forehead.
After a second of silence, Luna realized that she probably shouldn't have wasted her breath on this guy.
She was Magical Girls, and Lien had already run to Aurora's side and used her claws to cut the ropes binding Aurora.
Aurora fell from the cross, but the pile of firewood beneath her cushioned her fall and caught Aurora body.
Firewood was scattered all over the ground, but Aurora ignored the pain and picked up a piece of firewood, rushing towards Rose.
Call out--
Bang!!!
A whooshing sound rang out as Aurora's firewood struck Rose on the head, snapping instantly. Rose let out a scream.
"Ahhh!!"
Blood was streaming from her head, and she staggered and fell to the ground.
Before she could say anything, Aurora had already straddled her and was slamming her fist into her face!
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!
At this moment, Aurora forgot all about rules and fighting techniques. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks on Rose like a demon descended from the heavens.
Luna was startled by Aurora's actions, and after a moment of stunned silence, she remembered what she was doing and immediately rushed forward to hug Aurora.
"Calm down... calm down--"
"Let me go!!! I'm going to kill her!!!"
Aurora, now devastated by the loss of Kelly, resembled an enraged young beast, gritting her teeth as if determined to kill Rose.
Rose sobbed on the ground, but her words still held a hint of confusion:
"I... I was clearly... helping you..."
Ruth didn't understand what was happening, but she still held onto Aurora tightly.
If this continues, Aurora will really kill him.
Aurora was too strong, Luna couldn't quite hold onto her.
Just as Aurora was about to break free of her restraints and run towards Rose, suddenly, a dazzling light emanated from the statue behind the cross.
"Ah..."
The believers and Rose were drawn to the light. Even though Rose was already bruised and battered beyond recognition, she knelt on the ground, looking excitedly at the idol emitting the light.
"It's Oracle...! The True God... the True God has given us a new Oracle--!"
"Xiao Lan! Defensive Magic!!!"
Compared to the believers who had been completely brainwashed, Lien was much more cautious.
The instant the white light appeared, Lien immediately ran back to Luna's side and shouted a warning to her from her shoulder.
Luna moved quickly as well. As soon as Lien spoke, a layer of azure defensive shield appeared in front of her. Then she grabbed Aurora and protected her inside the magical shield as well.
The white light grew brighter and brighter, and with the fervent shouts of the believers, it finally reached its peak.
The screen turned completely white.
(Brainwashed believers are truly terrifying)
(No way, Luna, why are you stopping Little Red Hong?! Let Little Red beat her to death!!!)
(Sigh, Rose is also a poor child who has been brainwashed...)
(Drag the Virgin Mary out and shoot her!)
(Is she pitiful? Aren't the innocent bystanders caught up in this incident pitiful? Aren't the innocent people who have been deceived by them in the name of 'True God' over the past few years pitiful?)
(Poor Rose, let's make her go in a better way.)
(Agreed)
Most of the comments supported Rose's execution, while the few comments that thought Rose didn't deserve to die were also overwhelmed by these comments.
Xiao Bai wasn't too concerned about Rose's final outcome; what she was more curious about was what that white light actually was.
It doesn't look like... anything good.
[Buzz!]
The white light didn't just sweep through the church; Fang Ming, who was fighting monsters with a katana on the outskirts of the town, also saw the white light emanating from the center of the church.
He frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "Could Aurora be in that direction?"
Bang bang bang!
Several gunshots interrupted Fang Ming's thoughts.
Turning his head, he saw Hunter, who had broken through the encirclement with Fang Ming, firing at the monsters in the distance.
Although the guns in Hunter's hands were almost useless against these beetle monsters, they could at least help hold them off for a while, creating openings that Fang Ming could easily exploit.
Thanks to Hunter's assistance, Fang Ming was able to wreak havoc among the monsters, with only his clothes getting slightly dirty.
"These guys seem to have stopped moving?"
After firing his gun, Hunter walked towards Fang Ming, his brows furrowed as he looked at the monsters in the distance that remained motionless even after being shot.
Fang Ming also looked over at the monsters approaching from the surrounding area.
Hunter was right. The monster that had been approaching them stopped in place after the flash of white light, its hands pressed to the ground as if it were praying or worshipping something.
That direction is the direction of the church!
"These monsters are indeed being controlled by someone," Fang Ming concluded.
Although these monsters seem to have completely lost their minds, under certain conditions, they can be brought under control!
The white light we just saw was clearly one of the essential conditions!
Should we continue?
Hunter asked Fang Ming.
"Of course, you also want to find the culprit, right?"
Fang Ming slashed down several motionless monsters one by one, then shook off the blood, sheathed his sword, and said to Hunter.
The reasons they ventured deeper into the town were twofold: Fang Ming wanted to confirm Aurora and Luna's safety, and Hunter wanted to find dirt on the Federation within the town to avenge his subordinates and himself.
The two formed a two-man team, leaving the other soldiers to continue the work of 'blockading the town'.
After all, there are quite a few monsters in this town. The soldiers have to prevent any monsters from escaping, and they also have to prevent other people from entering.
