Iris was pinned to the ground, Yiyi could no longer transform.
In reality, Keke is the only one who can stand at the forefront now.
Keke isn't afraid.
Ms. Shion would never kill indiscriminately; everyone she kills deserves to die.
Although she hadn't seen the detailed report from the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, she was absolutely certain it was correct.
Because if Shion- sensei were truly a person who indiscriminately kills innocent people, she wouldn't be alive today.
Yiyi will definitely die too.
Whether it was the Du Juan or the later Yinluo, Keke herself was also very saddened by Yinluo's death.
But since she was a member of the Witch Association, it was reasonable for Shion- sensei to kill her, even though it might be difficult to accept emotionally.
The fault doesn't lie with Teacher Shion, but with the Witch Association and the fallen Yinluo, who caused Yiyi heartache.
So Keke wasn't scared at all.
"I know that every time Ms. Shion commits a murder, there must be a deeper reason behind it."
The usual reason is simply that it's convenient.
"However, when dealing with the Witch Association, we don't need to, every single time, have Shion- sensei take action."
It's not like every time, the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect handle so many cases.
"So, so please, Ms. Shion, hand the Shuangsheng over to the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau for handling, okay?"
That would be perfect.
The only problem is, isn't it a bit too suspicious to just nod and say "okay" now?
Keke's argument here is quite logical, and it's reasonable that she was convinced – probably.
After thinking about it, I wondered what methods you experienced people would usually use to solve this kind of problem.
For a moment, she Return to Truth n't recall any online novel protagonists who would be willing to spare the villain's life.
After all, if the protagonist casually lets the villain live, the upper-level narrator will be hit hard by the Observer.
However, Return to Truth a few enemies are willing to spare the protagonist's life.
With just a little thought, one can find quite a few examples.
Then, Shion slowly extended one finger.
I originally intended to wait for the other party to understand on their own, or to ask questions.
But after waiting for a while, Yiyi and Keke both looked nervous and showed no intention of asking any questions.
"If you're so nervous, why don't you ask?" she thought, somewhat speechless. She could only slowly begin to explain herself:
"One move."
"Take one of my moves, and I'll spare her life."
The two girls over there finally understood what she meant by holding up one finger, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
This is generally said when the enemy is in a precarious situation and could directly kill the protagonist.
In reality, you can kill the opponent in one move; those who dare to say such things are usually very confident of success.
Of course, most villains who say such things will inevitably fail to kill the protagonist for various reasons.
When they were about to break their promise in a fit of anger, the powerful figure behind the protagonist intervened and stopped them.
Although Shion has no interest in playing a villain, this line seems to be the most suitable in the current situation.
That way, he can leave immediately after making his move, and no one will suspect that the Shuangsheng are related to the Azure Cloud Sect.
Upon Keke this, Coco immediately placed her wand in front of her with both hands and proudly declared, "I want to too, to let Ms. Shion see how much I've grown!"
Looking at Shion's indifferent expression, Li Yi suddenly felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
If only I had appeared in time to shield my sister.
Is it possible?
His index finger, which had been raised, slowly bent, and he turned slightly to the side, casually and simply pointing at the three people.
"Wait a moment!"
Keke suddenly cried out, waving her wand frantically, "Ms. Shion, could you wait for me? I need to get ready."
Yiyi looked at her junior teammate speechlessly. "Do you know who you're facing? It's that ruthless, cold-blooded..."
Unexpectedly, Shion actually stopped, only urging, "Hurry up."
With wide eyes, Li Yi glanced at the opposite side from afar and saw that they had Return to Truth stopped and were waiting for Keke to prepare the Shion.
Are you really that easy to talk to?
Meanwhile, Keke had already started using all sorts of moves, which dazzled Yiyi.
" Mediocre Work, firstly, the Reconstruction of the Flame-Ravaged Body."
" True Crimson Acceleration."
" Magic Solidification."
" The Flowing Breath of Wind."
" Crimson Heavenly Eye."
Li Yi immediately recognized the first one: the one Senior Hyacinth had taught them; the second one: the one Keke had asked her about how to make the magic defense more powerful; and the third one: the technique of controlling the flow of magic from Dandelion.
The fourth one is Peony's "Heavenly Eye"? When did you consult Peony about it?
One skill contains four ways to enhance it.
When did Keke become so strong?
"I'm ready, Ms. Shion!"
Li Yi immediately held her breath.
Across from them, the girl in purple pointed to their rounded fingertips, and a ball of purple magic began to gather and grow larger.
There was no change in nature or form; it was simply the condensation of magical energy, and then, it erupted!
It carved a terrifying trench in the ground, moving at a slow but incredibly oppressive speed as it hurtled towards the three of them!
" Mediocre Work, part two!"
The crimson magic in front of Keke unfolded layer by layer, like blooming flowers, each petal making the barrier thicker.
" The Ring of Red Lotus Judgment!"
Faster, stronger, and the magic flows more delicately!
Keke even took a moment to turn around. "Don't worry, Yiyi, I'll protect you!"
Li Yi was somewhat lost in thought.
Panting heavily, even though she was almost at her limit, she still turned around with a smile to comfort the person behind her.
"Don't worry, sister, I will protect you."
The past image overlapped with Keke's.
When I turned my head, I could see more than just my sister's gaze.
Those gazes—filled with fear, anticipation, adoration, and unease.
All those countless strangers she protected were behind her—
boom!
A pure, unadorned, terrifying purple magic collided with the unfolding fiery red petals.
In just a moment, one of the petals shattered.
Keke bit her lip and poured all her magic into it!
And so, the next petal finally held on for two seconds.
The immense impact propelled her backward, Keke struggled forward desperately, but one of her feet still sank into the ground.
This is the power of a teacher.
That's really, so far away.
Looking up, Ms. Shion's expression seemed to indicate that she hadn't exerted any force at all; her index finger pointing in this direction wasn't even straight, and the gesture looked more like she had just casually pointed at something.
However, even this most ordinary magical impact felt like a mountain pressing down on her.
Li Yi stared at Keke's trembling back, biting her lip hard.
She took out her Miracle Seed, a jet-black, dead seed.
Countless calls were met only with deathly silence and despair.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
The petals began to crumble, but the pace slowed down.
On the one hand, the magic of the cocoa petals is more intense later Keke; on the other hand...
She looked up and gazed at the expressionless Ms. Shion from afar.
She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she seemed to see a hint of appreciation in Ms. Shion's eyes.
"Well done."
Her rosy lips moved slightly, Keke subconsciously began to think in that direction.
But then I thought about it, and maybe the mouth shape was wrong.
However, she decided to take it as a compliment from Ms. Shion.
After all, this was a defensive technique of Shion- sensei that she had imitated after only one glance.
Really, isn't that pretty good?
Snap!
As the last petal fell, Keke n't hold on any longer and was about to be knocked away.
However, someone suddenly grabbed her shoulder from behind.
"Well done, newbie! The magical girl from Beihai is much more capable than I imagined."
Magical Girl Iris pulls out a dark gravity barrier in front of her with her backhand.
"I never expected you could buy me enough time to transform. Leave the rest to me!"
Keke admired her opponent for being so confident and arrogant despite losing so badly. If she were her, she might have cried.
"Are you alright, Iris- senpai?"
"No problem, who do you think I am?"
The blue magical girl smiled brightly, "I am Iris, the strongest magical girl in the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau!"
There are more prefixes now, senior!
Keke thought this, she saw the purple magic power being twisted and swallowed by the black gravity barrier, and she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Even for someone like Shion- sensei, such a casual attack couldn't possibly break through the defense of a Full Blossom Girl of the same level—right?
The next second, the gravity barrier shattered without warning.
It transcended levels, crushed the rules, and pure magic destroyed everything!
Two magical girls crashed down behind Li Yi, simultaneously deactivating their transformations.
Li Yi faced the purple light directly.
It feels like I've gone back to that day.
We returned to the day we had just transformed.
When the Calamity Beast appeared, everyone ran away, and people kept falling. My sister also fell to the ground, but she kept urging herself to run faster.
But Li Yi rushed forward alone, standing in front of the Calamity Beast.
Now, the person behind her is no longer her sister, but a member of the Witch Association, one of the murderers who killed her.
She had no reason to risk standing at the front.
As long as someone doesn't stand in the way of the Shuangsheng, Shion won't kill anyone.
Shion only kills those who deserve to die.
This is true for Shuangsheng, and it's also true for the older sister.
Pain writhed in her heart. Li Yi clutched her Miracle Seed tightly, knowing she would never respond to her own miracle again.
It's like a sister I'll never see again.
I don't want to regret it anymore.
I don't want to see anyone die in front of me anymore.
So, I still...
Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face.
The purple light obscured our vision.
So much so that they couldn't see the seeds in their hands, being washed by tears, dripping with dark filth.
She choked back tears and voiced her wish:
"I want to become a magical girl."
The seed in my hand once again emitted a dazzling pink light!
In an instant, countless fluttering petals rose up around her!
It stopped the unstoppable purple light.
Within the petals, Li Yi slightly opened her mouth, her eyes blurred with tears as she looked at the seed in her hand.
Although it could no longer transform, the Miracle Seed responded to her with its last bit of power!
"Thank you, thank you for responding to me. Let's protect everyone together one last time!"
The miracle of response swelled within the girl's wish, as if an infinite power was blocking the path of the purple magic!
However, in just a moment, the petals fluttering around them burst into flames!
In the blink of an eye, all the petals turned to ashes!
Li Yi's face was still wet with tears when the miracle she had just grasped was annihilated by absolute power.
Before they could react, they were blasted away by the magic!
Keke, Coco reacted quickly and caught her, and the two of them fell backward a great distance together.
And so, only the Shuangsheng remained, quietly clutching the blue pendant.
The purple magic roared, about to devour and tear her apart, when it suddenly subsided.
It seemed as if the wind had just run out right in front of her, leaving only the raging wind that stirred her loose black hair, gently wiping away her wounds, and finally slowly returning to calm.
"Metropolitan--"
She looked up, somewhat dreamily, and finally added, "My lord."
However, there was no one left ahead.
In the desolate suburban wasteland, there was only a huge, pitted ditch, resembling half-burned trees, broken telephone poles, and a supermarket, with wisps of smoke rising continuously.
A vast, empty void.
"Ha, ha, ha ha ha!"
Gasping for breath, the Shuangsheng wore relieved smiles. As long as Shion wasn't around, they could smile anytime!
The Shuangsheng used both their hands and feet to try to stand up, holding onto the broken tree trunk beside them.
The sect leader was gone, and the three magical girls were severely injured. This was the best chance to escape. A pistol was pressed against the back of her head.
"I... I never said you could leave."
She glanced sideways at Li Yi, who was covered in mud and bruises from the fall, panting heavily but looking at her with a serious expression. "You scum from the Witch Association, where do you think you're going?"
The Shuangsheng raised their hands somewhat helplessly.
"You were so desperate to save me just now, it really touched me, but then you turned so cold. Shuangsheng 'm so heartbroken. I thought we were good friends after I told you about your sister last time."
Stop talking nonsense.
"Why are you carrying a handgun? Children shouldn't play with handguns; it's dangerous."
"You can keep talking nonsense. I don't mind putting a hole in your other leg."
"Then please spare me."
Keke, carrying the unconscious Iris on her back, walked over. "You didn't say a word to Shion just now. I thought you were mute."
The Shuangsheng chuckled. "You dare to misbehave in class under the homeroom teacher's nose?"
"That makes sense." Then Keke asked, "Did Ms. Shion teach you too?"
"Hmm, should I call it teaching, or just beatings?"
Li Yi had already taken her handcuffs out of Iris's pocket and handcuffed the Shuangsheng.
This is a hand specially made by the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau for the Witch Association, capable of suppressing the flow of Filthy Magic Power.
"Hey, can I transform first and grow my legs back? Venus only lost her arms, she didn't say she was going to lose her legs, it's really inconvenient."
"Behave yourself, a broken leg is just what you need."
"You were so cute when you were feeling down before, why are you suddenly being so mean to me? Can't you come back to normal?"
Ouch.
"Because I'm now the magical girl Yinlian," Li Yi said softly after kicking the Shuangsheng, "The captain of the Magical Girl Combat Team of the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau."
Keke listened from the side, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on her face as well.
Regardless, it's so good that Li Yi can pull herself together.
Perhaps this was all part of Shion- sensei's plan. " Yiyi, has your seed recovered?"
While sending a message to the personnel at the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, Li Yi looked at her Miracle Seed. "The contamination has disappeared, you could say I've recovered, but I have no magic left. Like Senior Susan, I can no longer transform."
I thought of Susan again.
Similarly, when Susan's seeds were contaminated, she unleashed her power once in an attempt to save people.
The pollution must be completely removed.
At that time, Susan thought she could transform back into her original form.
I studied it with great excitement for a long time.
But in the end, it still failed; even without the contamination, the Miracle Seed was empty.
The Filthy Magic Power not only contaminates the magical girl's power and emotions, but also severs the connection between the Miracle Seed and the Incubators.
In principle, having lost its source of magic, it is impossible for it to transform.
The final burst of power also consumed the last remaining portion of its strength.
The more I researched, the more I realized that only despair remained.
Keke looked at the captain with some sadness, "There must be another way—"
"It's Keke," Li Yi comforted Coco with a smile. "Even if I can't transform, I can still help everyone, including Keke, just like Susan. So, as long as Keke works hard for my sake too, I'll still be a magical girl!"
Keke, who wasn't good at comforting people, simply nodded and gave a heavy "Mmm".
The Shuangsheng beside her chuckled, " The Azure Cloud Sect might have a way, Captain Li Yi. How about joining the Azure Cloud Sect Azure Cloud Sect? Becoming a member might help you regain your transformation power."
"No need. I will use my own power to become a magical girl," Li Yi said nonchalantly. "Just like you said, a magical girl is a girl who creates miracles, not a girl who begs for miracles. I will create my own miracles."
The Shuangsheng were silent for a moment before finally suppressing their laughter. "Your sister is far inferior to you."
"I won't listen to your flattery, and you're not allowed to speak ill of my sister."
" Shuangsheng don't flatter others, nor do they speak ill of people. Under the tutelage of Winter Lord, I only speak the truth."
9
Once the people from the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau arrived one after another, and the Civil Engineering Brigade was restarted, Li Yi composed herself and, suppressing her emotions, led the Shuangsheng to the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
Even if we want to kill her, we should conduct a trial first.
Then, suddenly remembering something, she turned to look at the girl lying on top of Keke:
"Oh, by the way, Miss Iris, the strongest magical girl in the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, how long are you going to sleep?"
Outside the factory building in the western district of Beihai.
Bingtang, sitting in a Mercedes-Benz, slowly pulled up beside Jiang Si, who was jogging home. She rolled down the window, adjusted her non-prescription glasses, and asked, "How are the Shuangsheng doing, Sect Master?"
"It's nothing serious. I don't know why she wanted to join the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau."
"It's probably a secret operation by the Witch Association? Anyway, with Susan cooperating, there's nothing to worry about."
"Um."
"Speaking of which, wasn't the final blow a bit too harsh, Sect Master? Your sister was seriously injured, wasn't she?"
"I was careless," Jiang Si said calmly. "I didn't expect them to be so bad."
"I think you should be more understanding of the abilities of ordinary magical girls," Bingtang said with a smile. "Luckily, Miss Li Yi created a miracle in the end. Although I really wanted Jiang Si to sit in, I also know that she doesn't like riding in cars and prefers running."
"I'll head back now if there's nothing else?"
"Wait," Jiang Si suddenly called out to her, "I've discovered a Full Blossom, unclaimed Miracle Seed within Li Yi."
Finally, Li Yi's outburst caused the unclaimed, Full Blossom Seed to unleash its magic, its aura becoming impossible to conceal.
"Huh?" Bingtang exclaimed. "Weren't both stolen by the Witch Association?"
"First, ask the Shuangsheng Witch Association if they really have two."
Jiang Si glanced in the direction of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau. "No matter what, let's get that seed from Li Yi first."
