Chapter 560

Airi, who was standing to the side, asked Luo Mio.

"Teacher Bianca, what do you think are the chances that my brother can defeat Celestia without using Bahamut?"

Upon hearing Airi's words, Risha, Kurokushifa, Philphi all looked over.

As the only person in the entire school who could force Celestia to use her full strength, yet still be helpless against her, Luo Mio should be the one who knows Celestia's strength best.

Luo Mio looked down at Lux and Celestia, who were facing off, and then spoke.

"In that case, without using Bahamut, Lux's chances of defeating Celestia are extremely slim, even if he uses his self-created Three Great Techniques of the Machine Dragon."

Upon hearing this, Risha and Kurokushifa changed slightly, and they both lowered their eyes to look at Lux, who was dressed in a suit in the arena.

In the first match, the two of them faced Celestia, so they were very clear about her strength.

If Lux were to use Bahamut, Lux would arguably be the strongest student at Academi Academy, but if he were to use the General Purpose Dragoride...

Then, Airi looked around as if she had noticed something.

"Huh, where's Nokote?"

Risha only realized what was happening after hearing Airi's questioning voice.

"Oh right, Tirfa and Sheris aren't here either..."

"Ah, about that, I asked them to do something for me."

"Thing?"

Before Lisha and Airi could ask any more questions, Legri on the referee's platform loudly announced the start of the match.

——

On the other side.

In the principal's office, Relli sat in her office chair, processing her documents.

But then, the young man who was serving as the assistant clerk hurriedly burst open the office door and rushed to Relli's side.

"Something terrible has happened! Headmaster!"

Seeing the clerk so flustered, his voice trembling slightly, Relli chuckled softly.

"What's wrong? You look so flustered."

The clerk spoke to Relli in a trembling voice.

"The large force dispatched by the Kingdom to the outer seas of the Heiburg Republic reported that 'the stone statue maintained by the Finality Godbeast Poseidon, has collapsed, Finality Godbeast, which should have been slumbering inside, has now vanished without a trace!'"

Upon hearing this news, Relli's expression suddenly changed.

"And Her Majesty the Queen said that the vanished Finality Godbeast Poseidon may very well appear in Crossfield!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a deafening, strange roar came from the direction of the Training Ground.

——

On the field, the competition has entered a heated phase.

At this moment, Luo Mio's eyes suddenly moved, and her azure eyes instantly became serious as she looked at the arena.

Then, standing up, Luo Mio spoke in a low voice to Lisha, Kurokushifa, and Airi beside her.

"You guys, go and evacuate and protect the students in the stands."

Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, the girls all showed expressions of great confusion.

"Huh?"

"Wait, Instructor Bianca."

But before they could finish speaking or even react, Luo Mio suddenly leaped up and jumped into the Training Ground.

Off the field, referee Legri also looked puzzled when she saw Luo Mio jump off the stands.

All the students present wore the same expression.

On the field, Celestia, who had already aimed her Mecha Dragon Cannon at Lux and was preparing to launch 'Star Light Star Light Zero' at Lux, was stunned when she saw Luo Mio suddenly appear in the arena.

Even Lux on the other side looked utterly confused.

Celestia was confused and mistakenly thought that Luo Mio had come to help Lux block her attack 'Star Light Zero', so she also spoke to Luo Mio.

"Instructor Bianca, isn't what you're doing a violation of the competition rules?"

Meanwhile, Lux, seeing the solemn and dignified expression in Luo Mio's deep blue eyes, understood what was going on. He then slowly landed beside Luo Mio and asked softly.

"What happened, Teacher Bianca?"

Celestia also noticed that Luo Mio's expression was off, and slowly flew over.

Just as they were about to ask, Luo Mio slowly spoke to the two of them.

"Get ready, it's coming."

The next second, a voice containing ominous signs of impending doom suddenly resounded throughout the entire Academi.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-------!"

Upon hearing the sound, many students, caught off guard, instinctively covered their ears.

Lux, Risha, and Airi, who were familiar with the voice, immediately changed their expressions.

"That voice?!"

"Could it be?!"

Then—

"—Gurgle, gurgle oooh..."

The eerie roar instantly echoed throughout the skies of the Fortress City Crossfield.

Accompanied by a strange roar that resounded throughout the sky, the earth shook and trembled as if a natural disaster had struck, shaking the Training Ground, the audience seats, and even the entire Academi.

Meanwhile, in the audience, a student who had been covering his ears heard the noise and couldn't help but ask.

"What... what happened?!"

"Bang—!"

As the question arose, dozens of tentacles, as thick as pillars, emerged from the ground of the Training Ground.

The moment Lux and Celestia saw the tentacles, they both gasped in shock.

"This is?!"

The moment these tentacles emerged, they launched an attack on Lux and Celestia.

Seeing this, Luo Mio looked at the tentacles attacking the two of them and spread her arms wide.

In an instant, the blue 'Star Abyss Phantom Spear' appeared in Luo Mio's hand.

Then, Luo Mio suddenly slashed down in a cross pattern at the dozens of tentacles that were attacking her.

"Zheng—!"

"Hunter's String - Gale Force" - Fifth Strike!

The blue blade of light, wreathed in Golden radiance, sliced off all the tentacles that were attacking from the front in an X-shape.

As if sensing the pain or threat emanating from Luo Mio, a strange, angry roar suddenly resounded from the cracked ground.

"Coo, coooo..."

The next second, the ground of the Training Ground cracked open, and the half-body of a colossal creature instantly occupied the entire Training Ground and the audience seats at the other end. Countless tentacles even pierced through the stone wall and appeared in the audience seats.

Fortunately, after being warned by Luo Mio, Lisha Kurokushifa realized something was wrong and immediately summoned Diamat and Fafnir to protect the students and evacuate them.

Retreating from the air to the audience seats, Lux and Celestia saw the 'Phantom Beast' with its massive body, half of which was as tall as the sky, emerging before them. They felt an intense sense of pressure and despair emanating from it and spoke in disbelief.

"Could it be...?!"

"—Ragnarok, the Finality Godbeast?!?"

This was the first time Lux had ever seen such a gigantic 'divine beast'. You couldn't even call it a monster or a divine beast; it was a walking, moving calamity! Despair!

Hearing what Lux and Celestia said, Luo Mio was slightly taken aback. Then, her azure eyes turned to the enormous, octopus-like legendary monster before her—'Ragnarok Finality Godbeast '.

On the other side, upon hearing the sound, Relli also quickly looked out the window.

Looking into the distance, on the other side of the Training Ground, countless tentacles, like towering pillars, appeared. Upon seeing this, Relli quickly took off her top and hurriedly said to the scribe.

"Excuse me, please contact the mayor immediately and have all residents of Block One and the surrounding blocks evacuated. Then contact the various blocks and the Dragoknight stationed near the ruins and ask them to come and provide support immediately!"

"Huh? This... where are you going? It's too dangerous outside!"

Relli looked at the clerk and gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"As the person in charge, it's even less likely that I'll be allowed to leave here at a time like this, and besides..."

A glint of light flashed in Relli's eyes.

'There's something even more important waiting for me... Philphi.'

Just then, another female clerk rushed in and reported to Relli.

"No, this is terrible! Unidentified units of Dragoknight have appeared in various districts of Crossfield! And they are all heading towards the academy in District One!"

Upon hearing this, Relli couldn't help but clench her hands.

'So that's how it is... a diversionary tactic by the Heiburg Republic.'

Thinking of this, Relli looked in the direction of the Finality Godbeast.

' Bianca is at the Training Ground now... so there shouldn't be any major problems, but...'

Relli seemed to have thought of something, and a look of worry appeared in her eyes.

' Philphi... you absolutely can't lose control.'

——

Training Ground, Lux also caught a glimpse of Luo Mio's shocked expression, then stared intently at the Finality Godbeast.

'Even someone as powerful as Teacher Bianca would be shocked by the appearance of the Finality Godbeast...'

But little did Lux know... that Luo Mio didn't think that way at all.

Looking at the Finality Godbeast before her, Luo Mio couldn't help but feel a strange mix of emotions.

That's it?

That's it?

That's it?

Looking at the Finality Godbeast before him, a symbol of natural disasters and despair.

Is this the so-called 'Finality' divine beast?

Luo Mio's azure eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of doubt and confusion.

The Finality Godbeast before her was far beyond Luo Mio's expectations.

At first, he was unaware of how powerful and despairing the legendary monster, which symbolized the ' Finality.

But now that it appeared in his sight, Luo Mio couldn't help but start to have doubts.

Is the enormous creature before us truly a legendary monster capable of destroying a country and causing immense damage?

At this moment, the system in Luo Mio's mind also popped up and complained to Luo Mio.

"Host, are you both domineering and foolish?"

"It symbolizes the existence of the concept of 'Finality,' you are the Finality, Finality is you."

"Even if there are other symbols, weapons, people or monsters that represent the word 'Finality,' they do not represent the existence of the concept of 'Finality.'"

"Their strength will absolutely not exceed the limits imposed on them by the world itself."

Ah...

Indeed, as the system said, the behemoth before this world is capable of destroying several countries.

In Luo Mio's perception, the strength of the Finality Godbeast before her was at most on par with the twelve Stage V Gastrea's in the Black World.

Even without activating her 'Demon Dragon Form', Bella can easily and simply eliminate her opponent.
