Chapter 364
(Is this Demons crazy? It's just a Shining Form, why is it chasing me like a mad dog!)
(There might be a problem; the Demons might have suffered a great loss in his Shining Form!)
(Xiao Qiu, run! Don't look back! Run!)
Yu Muqiu turned and ran. The audience didn't think Yu Muqiu was cold-blooded or disregarded the lives of people in the city. Instead, they cheered for Yu Muqiu, telling her to run faster and faster.
After all, the Blood Demon's strength was undeniable, and anyone could see that Yu Muqiu in his current state was no match for Blood Demon.
If that's the case, then of course we should run as fast as possible!
The background music in the Sky Screen began to intensify, and with each beat of the drums, Fang Ming subconsciously clenched his fists.
As if trying to distract himself from his nervousness, Fang Ming began to talk to Kelly and asked:
"Does the Demons hate Shining Form?"
"Of course, didn't we talk about this before? Don't you already know that?"
Kelly asked in confusion.
Fang Ming was well aware of the importance of the Shining Form and deduced that if the Demons saw the Shining Form, it probably wouldn't give up easily; otherwise, he wouldn't have used this condition as bait in the Sky Screen.
However, the Blood Demon's high regard for Yu Muqiu still somewhat exceeded Fang Ming's expectations.
Judging from the Blood Demon's attitude, the Shining Form probably has other special meanings for Demons.
This is something that even Magical Creatures might not know.
Looking down from the sky, one can see two beams of light, one pink and one red, chasing each other on the boundless sea.
One fled ahead, while the other chased after them. The lingering magical light and shadow left long trails in the sky, like two shooting stars streaking across the heavens.
While pursuing Yu Muqiu, the Blood Demon also kept firing blood bullets in an attempt to intercept Yu Muqiu.
The pink 'straight line' representing Yu Muqiu twisted and bent in the sky, but each time it managed to narrowly dodge the bullets fired by the Blood Demon.
A day of training certainly couldn't improve Yu Muqiu's strength, but after activating his Shining Form, the demonic power that was infinitely close to that of Upper Rank was able to strengthen Yu Muqiu's body.
Make her faster, make her magic stronger!
The Blood Demon wasn't a speed-focused Demons, so for a moment, he couldn't catch up with Yu Muqiu.
Of course, even if he wasn't a speed-specialized Demons, the Blood Demon was still closing the distance between himself and Yu Muqiu thanks to his Upper Rank.
If this continues, it will only take less than a minute for the Blood Demon to catch up with Yu Muqiu, who is far ahead, and eliminate him.
However, Blood Demon didn't notice was that, as they chased and fled, the two were gradually entering the range of the Magic Network of the Central Continent District.
How much further?
Standing on the island, Xiao Bai turned to Stella and asked.
Stella placed her right hand beside her temple, constantly sensing Yu Muqiu's location, and replied:
"Five hundred kilometers left... four hundred and ninety-five... four hundred and ninety... They're moving fast! They'll be there soon!"
"Dongdong! Is Magic Network ready?!"
"Ready! But... but Xiao Qiu's transformation takes time!"
Song Niandong answered immediately, while also reminding Xiao Bai with great concern.
Having entered the Dawn Form three times, Yu Muqiu, with the help of the Magic Network, is now able to quickly re-enter the Dawn Form.
But after all, this is an advanced form of Shining Form, and it's not something that can be mastered in a short time. It takes Xiao Qiu at least ten seconds to go from Shining Form to Dawn Form!
Ten seconds seems like a short time.
However, compared to Upper Demon capable of instantly killing any Magical Girls, ten seconds is simply not enough!
They must find a way to buy time!
Buy Yu Muqiu some time!
"Stella ..." Xiao Bai suddenly looked at Stella, her eyes flashing with an unreadable light.
Stella paused, then asked Xiao Bai, "... Do we really have to do this?"
"It's better than rushing in and dying right now! I can die, but I can't die here! It's not the right time yet!"
Xiao Bai gritted her teeth slightly.
Her own life was already on a countdown, so no matter how afraid she was of death, it was useless, since she would die in the end anyway.
Xiao Bai wasn't afraid of death; what she feared was dying a meaningless death.
Even if she were to die, it shouldn't be now, it should be at this moment, so she needs to activate her backup plan.
A method... that would be met with hostility from humanity in this world.
(The Riddler??)
(No, is there anything we can't know?)
(It must be something that human society would dislike... tsk, this doesn't feel good...)
(We'll accept any means necessary to save Xiao Qiu!)
[Xiao Bai and Stella seem to have prepared some unconventional methods, while Xiao Qiu is still on the run for her life.]
With her keen senses, she could feel the intense killing intent emanating from the Demons behind her.
Ever since she activated her Shining Form, the Blood Demon behind her has completely changed its playful attitude, and every attack it makes is merciless!
Yu Muqiu is only able to hold on because of the explosive power of his Shining Form!
Once she stops, or is caught up, Yu Muqiu is certain that the Demons will kill her on the spot! There will be no surprises!
The cruel world belonging to Magical Girls was finally revealed to Yu Muqiu.
Fortunately, because of his previous experience, Yu Muqiu is still able to hold on and isn't really scared.
Almost there... almost there... just a little faster!
The Magic Network is right in front of him. As long as he can enter the range of the Magic Network, Yu Muqiu will be able to enter his Second Shining Form and eliminate the Blood Demon behind him!
The Blood Demon, who were chasing Yu Muqiu, were unclear why Yu Muqiu was only running in this direction.
But no matter what, the Blood Demon will not let Yu Muqiu escape!
Therefore, during the pursuit, the Blood Demon had already prepared his moves.
Red blood gathered and congealed on her right hand, and crimson magic formed a sphere in her hand. The energy inside was gradually expanding and was enough to evaporate any Magical Girls below the Upper Rank!
If this attack hits, Yu Muqiu will definitely—
Whoosh whoosh--
Just as the Blood Demon was about to unleash the magic in his hand, a sudden whooshing sound from the horizon interrupted Blood Demon power gathering.
The Blood Demon immediately looked up at the sky and saw several missiles flying towards her, trailing plumes of fire!
This is a weapon of humankind, a missile created by humankind using its own technology!
"Are they humans from this world? No..."
The Blood Demon's pupils contracted, his gaze sweeping across the vast ocean, as if he could see a scene thousands of kilometers away.
Beside Xiao Bai, Stella closed her eyes, her right hand resting on the side of her forehead, where a dense layer of cold sweat appeared, and brown magic spread like threads throughout the world.
The camera pans out and switches to various military bases in different regions, where the military leaders in charge of launching these missiles all have brown eyes.
Their fingers were on the button that indicated launch, and one of them was pointing his finger at a red button.
Clearly, they are currently under Stella's mind control!
"... Another Magical Girls? How come there are so many Magical Girls in this world?"
The Blood Demon didn't look closely; she subconsciously mistook the girl who helped Yu Muqiu for Magical Girls as well.
Having confirmed that it was another Magical Girls who had made the move, the Blood Demon stopped arguing.
The energy that was about to gather in his hand was transformed into another shape.
The Blood Demon raised his hand and threw it into the air. The energy gathered in his hand transformed into a spear, which he used to meet the various types of missiles flying towards him head-on!
These missiles are nothing to the Blood Demon; even if she took them head-on, they probably wouldn't cause her any harm.
However, it must be said that these things will slow down the Blood Demon's progress.
Even a delay of just 0.1 seconds would be enough to create some distance between Yu Muqiu and the Blood Demon.
Therefore, she couldn't possibly let those missiles fall on her!
Boom boom boom!!!
The red spear collided head-on with the incoming missile in mid-air.
The sky seemed to be filled with bursts of giant fireworks, the exploding flames stretching across the heavens.
None of the missiles released by Stella, who controlled the human elite, landed on the Blood Demon, let alone hinder her advance!
But Stella remained completely calm, and although Xiao Bai clenched his fists, he remained utterly composed.
Because, right behind these missiles, missiles carrying nuclear warheads are flying this way!
As the most powerful weapons that humanity can currently create, these nuclear bombs are enough to delay the Blood Demon for a while!
It would take only ten seconds—just ten seconds—to consume most of the world's current nuclear arsenal to stop the Blood Demon!
They will then have a chance to turn the tide and win!
As the nuclear missiles hurtled towards them, the Blood Demon seemed to sense the threat and was about to detonate them in mid-air, just as it had done before.
However, a pink light suddenly appeared in the direction the Blood Demon was chasing.
The familiar pink light made the Blood Demon frown, for she sensed the figure of a Magical Girls hidden within it.
Is it Yu Muqiu?
No.
It's Nicole!
Song Niandong controlled Nicole, and before the Blood Demon could react, she and Nicole transformed into a surge of energy, slamming into the Blood Demon!
Boom!!
The pink light erupted, but was dispersed by the Blood Demon's wave of his hand in the next instant. Nicole's figure was gone, but the Blood Demon was also unable to unleash his attack!
The attack, which was supposed to destroy the missiles, failed.
The fastest nuclear missile landed on the head of the Blood Demon!
Then--
Boom!!!
A massive mushroom cloud rose from the sea amidst a blinding flash of light!
But this was not the end. A second nuclear warhead followed, landing and detonating inside the mushroom cloud!
Boom!!!!!
On this day, even more suns rose over the deserted sea.
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Theatrical Edition and Season 3: Chapter 395: They Don't Have Much Time Left to Develop
(I suddenly understand why I don't like Stella...)
(Me too...)
(While Stella is doing the right thing right now... this kind of mind manipulation is still a bit... right...?)
(If this were just an anime series, Stella would probably be very popular.)
(... But I do think Stella is cute.)
(No one said she wasn't cute, it's just... that mental ability... is indeed a bit scary for ordinary people.)
Below the Sky Screen, the Magical Girls glanced at Stella.
Stella, using her clone technique, maintained her composure, eating cake while enjoying the scene unfolding in the Sky Screen.
She even had the composure to comment on her reflection in the Sky Screen.
"Not bad, being able to amplify one's magic to this extent through the Magic Network... I've learned something new."
