Jiang Si stepped out of the wall and glanced at the flames blooming in the sky.
Keke's magic was so powerful that it surprised him somewhat.
Half-Step Full Blossom, the magical level of New Sprout reaching its peak.
Although he hasn't reached his peak yet, his control over magic is not precise enough, and he doesn't currently possess any Magic Technique of his own.
Without elevating one's skills to match one's current strength, one is still far from reaching the so-called " New Sprout Great Perfection."
For example, that flaming spear from earlier was indeed comparable in power to the Full Blossom, but its method of using magic was clearly still in its Bud Stage.
The magical variations are not varied enough, and the timing of the magical bursts is also incorrect.
The combat strategy is still in its Bud.
The New Sprout Stage have absolutely no idea about combat methods or magic usage, which means their training and education at the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau are completely inadequate.
From Bud very beginning, the Azure Cloud Sect distributes cultivation methods to New Sprout Stage, ensuring that each disciple possesses sufficient foundational knowledge and immediately masters the combat techniques of New Sprout when they advance in rank, so as to avoid being unable to win even after achieving a breakthrough in battle.
According to Bingtang, the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau is like those robots' phones: poor system scheduling, unbalanced components, and sometimes it has to rely on brute force to throw bricks to achieve its goals.
The magical girl from the Azure Cloud Sect is a standard example; she uses the same Apple mobile phone every day. It's well-tuned, has balanced components, and a fast system response, but it's not cold-resistant and tends to shut down automatically.
Speaking of Winter Lord's magic control assessment, which involves enduring her frost and adjusting the fine magic control of Yumo's whirlwind, both are very suitable special training for Keke.
There's also the trial of escaping a truck chase by simply manipulating the seed's magic and then using one's physical body.
Give her three times the amount, Keke should be fine.
As a magical girl and her younger sister, Jiang Keke will never be inferior to anyone in this life.
While pondering how to teach Keke cultivation methods, the Calamity Beast on the rooftop roared and began to move again.
Jiang Si sighed and stretched.
Gather all the Filthy Magic Power within your body.
A large, jet-black bow slowly unfurled in his hand.
Ultimately, aside from their completely opposite nature, there is no difference between Filthy Magic Power and pure magic, and the methods of manipulation are also very similar, requiring only slight adjustments to the details of control.
That way, you can do the same thing.
Jiang Si placed one foot on the back of the bow, pulled the bowstring, and the huge arrow flowed continuously until the great bow was fully drawn, like a full moon.
The moment they let go, a whistling arrow shot through the air!
The pitch-black magic even created flames through friction in the air, forcefully enveloping the arrow within them.
It was exactly the same shot Coco Keke fired earlier!
However, Jiang Si's arrow suddenly stopped the moment it pierced the vine-covered Calamity Beast.
And just like that, it exploded violently inside the Calamity Beast's body!
The enormous Calamity Beast was blasted apart, its vines flying everywhere, and half of its body was obliterated by the arrow!
Even without transforming, his magical power, aided by the captain's empowerment, is comparable to New Sprout Peak Great Perfection.
It was a strike comparable to the Half-Step Full Blossom.
Keke's shot was just like fireworks in the sky; it couldn't kill an A-rank Calamity Beast, let alone a B-rank Calamity Beast.
However, Jiang Si's arrow sliced off half of the A-level Calamity Beast's body.
Even Jiang Si herself could give it such a terrifying evaluation.
However, it seemed that even a strike from Half-Step Full Blossom was insufficient to kill an A-level Calamity Beast.
Even though half of its body was destroyed, the vines grew rapidly and quickly repaired the missing parts.
Even Rank A Calamity Beast have varying levels of quality; it would be appropriate to categorize Calamity Beast into different ranks in the future.
After probing for a while, Jiang Si figured out the characteristics of the A-level Calamity Beast.
First and foremost, there is no Grief Seed.
He had pierced through the entire body of the Calamity Beast, and in the end, he even destroyed half of its body.
But the location of the Grief Seed could not be found.
Originally, I wanted to try a classic challenge against a higher level, using the strength of a New Sprout sprouted beast to Full Blossom against a level A Calamity Beast, which was comparable to the level of a Full Blossom beast.
Two things were discovered.
One reason is that the contribution of the New Sprout is ultimately too limited to wipe out the entire A-level Calamity Beast in one go.
Another issue is that A-rank Calamity Beast do not possess the Grief Seed.
Breaking through defenses and injuring A-rank Calamity Beast is already quite difficult for a New Sprout Stage magical girl in the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
If there are Grief Seed, by concentrating our strength, seizing the right opportunity, and destroying them in one fell Grief Seed, we have a chance to win.
As a result, the A-level Calamity Beast did not Grief Seed.
There has never been an A-level Calamity Beast in Beihai, Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau has very few records about A-level Calamity Beast. Jiang Si Return to Truth didn't know that there was such a thing. Bingtang Bingtang have mentioned it, but he forgot.
After all, they hadn't encountered a single A-rank Calamity Beast in three years, so this wasn't crucial information, and it's normal to forget about it.
As the longbow dissipated, the vines of the Calamity Beast danced and rushed over like a dense volley of whips.
Having nearly exhausted its Filthy Magic Power, the Calamity Egg once again entered a state of suspended animation.
The power from the empowerment was ultimately weak and ineffective; it was completely exhausted after only one attack at the New Sprout Peak Great Perfection.
Jiang Si took out her seeds.
The grayish-white seeds still looked lifeless.
A precise sidestep, jump, and backward movement.
Countless vines brushed past him.
Too slow. The attacks of A-level Calamity Beast don't have many patterns; they're basically predictable at a glance.
Jiang Si wandered casually among the swaying vines, gazing at the Miracle Seed.
Can't transform?
How could that be?
All worldly principles originate from the mind; this is merely a minor illusion.
It's not that they can't transform, but rather that they make the magical girl believe she can't.
This is the Sitting and Forgetting the Dao, and it is also the Great Forest, as recorded in online articles.
It's fun, but don't think you can fool me.
It may deceive my eyes, but it cannot deceive my Daoist heart.
The overwhelming vines finally became so dense that there wasn't even a single gap, pressing towards Jiang Si from all directions!
He gripped the seed tightly, a terrifying force compressing the miracle, and a faint purple light bloomed from Jiang Si's palm!
Even if it's a dead seed, I'll still use it!
"Heaven and earth are ruthless."
The vines entwined and constantly obscured Jiang Si's vision, leaving only his left eye coldly gazing at the distant Calamity Beast.
Eventually, even this small patch of vision was blocked.
Completely submerged by vines.
"Treating all things as straw dogs."
A burst of blazing purple flames shot skyward!
Keke finally stopped.
Looking at the corpse in front of him, whose head had been completely smashed and who was no longer breathing, he felt a sudden exhaustion.
Keke plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.
Although the symptoms of witchhood are still present, they have stopped spreading.
The concentration of Filthy Magic Power has also decreased, so at least for the time being, there is no need to worry about Filthy Magic Power further spread.
Not knowing how to get out, perhaps there really was no way out, Keke looked up at the vine-covered wall and could feel her breathing becoming increasingly labored.
She had just advanced to the New Sprout Stage. Although she had successfully broken through the wall of vines, she could still feel it.
Now the vine walls are thicker and their power is even more terrifying.
Even if they were to launch another full-force attack, they might not be able to break through.
A-rank Calamity Beast are beyond the capabilities of a New Sprout Stage magical girl; Yiyi had told her this before.
Once they get serious, the defense of an A-rank Calamity Beast is beyond the reach of New Sprout Stage magical girl.
Whether it's magical power or the nature of magical energy, there's an insurmountable gap between an A-rank Calamity Beast and New Sprout Stage magical girl.
When a fully Full Blossom magical girl fights an A-rank Calamity Beast, New Sprout Stage magical girl can't even offer much help.
If they were trapped and died here, would Jiang Si be sad?
It seems unlikely.
Without even hesitation or thought, just thinking about her parents, Keke gave her answer.
Before her parents died, Jiang Si's response was quite normal.
Once he dies, it's all over; Jiang Si won't even treat him like a human being anymore.
Although a corpse can hardly be considered a person.
What about the others? Will anyone feel sorry for them?
I don't have any friends at school, only good relationships with teachers. The teachers will probably just feel regret, maybe a little sad, but only for a short while?
Since they're not family, they won't be sad for long.
Then, the members of the Magical Girl Combat Team might feel sad for themselves.
She'll be sad for a long time if she only has Yiyi as a friend.
They were best friends. Yiyi had just recovered from the grief of losing her sister when she had to face the death of her best friend.
It must be really upsetting for Yiyi; it's just too much.
But Keke believed.
She can definitely surpass all of these!
He glanced down at the captain's mangled head; the corpse reeked of a foul stench.
But aside from the nausea caused by the stench, I didn't feel much else.
It was all thanks to Jiang Si's training—that her parents' rotten remains were thrown in front of her.
Seeing such a Witch Association corpse, no matter how tragic, leaves one feeling completely unmoved.
If it were Jiang Si, what would he do now?
Thinking about Jiang Si, his previously agitated mind cooled down a bit.
For a moment, she didn't know how to face her brother.
The hatred and resentment I once felt because of my parents are now completely unfounded.
Because it was he who caused his parents' death.
They even felt guilty and deeply ashamed about it.
Even if Jiang Si didn't say it, these past few years haven't been easy for her, whether it's money, things at school, or relationships with relatives.
Most of the problems still need to be solved by Jiang Si, Keke do.
If it weren't for the death of his parents, Jiang Si wouldn't have had to shoulder these responsibilities; he wasn't much older than him.
Although she always has a blank expression and seems indifferent, revealing no emotion, she must have had a very tough time these past few years.
She always gave him the cold shoulder, made him angry, and acted as if he had wronged her and mistreated her.
In reality, our current predicament is entirely our own doing.
But then again, I don't have mind-reading abilities. He always keeps quiet, never complains, and never emphasizes what he's sacrificed. How am I supposed to know what happened if he doesn't say anything?
I tried to find excuses for myself to lessen my guilt.
But I soon became somewhat discouraged.
If she had observed carefully at the time, she would have abandoned her prejudices and viewed Jiang Si's actions objectively.
Then such misunderstandings will not occur.
Li Yi had already realized from their first meeting that Jiang Si wasn't such a wicked or hateful person, unlike her own prejudiced self, she spoke many good words for Jiang Si.
As a result, he didn't listen to a word of it.
Perhaps, Yiyi is the more suitable person to be Jiang Si's younger sister.
If Yiyi had been Jiang Si's sister from the beginning, perhaps so many disasters wouldn't have happened.
Then she lowered her head, bit her lip, and felt guilty.
I'm so sorry, Yiyi, your sister's seven-day mourning period just ended, and I was already thinking of making you the sister of my enemy's boyfriend.
But I myself am indeed not a good younger sister. From beginning to end, I was not only completely wrong, but also stubbornly unrepentant.
She was angry because Jiang Si didn't take her parents' funeral seriously, and she felt disappointed and resentful that he wasn't willing to be there for her during her most painful time.
In the end, he was the one who caused his parents' death.
The underlying logic was flawed from the start; Jiang Si should have been the one feeling angry and resentful towards him.
Not only did he cause the deaths of his parents, but he also became a burden to Jiang Si Jiang Si, causing her countless troubles. He was always giving her attitude and righteously dumping problems he couldn't solve onto her.
He kept insisting that Jiang Si was in the wrong.
Thinking of this, Keke n't help but clutch her chest, feeling a tightness and a sharp pain.
How can I apologize in a way that will make me forgive myself?
What can we do to become family again?
Will Jiang Si still care about her younger sister?
How can I tell him that I caused my parents' death?
The thought of Jiang Si's reaction after finding out about this Keke Coco feel a growing sense of fear.
Will I get angry? Will I hate myself? Will I cut ties with myself?
What would Coco do if her brother abandoned her? Keke have no family left.
Don't do that kind of thing.
" Keke!"
Suddenly, a venomous voice echoed throughout the entire building.
Keke immediately clutched her Miracle Seed and looked around.
He glanced down at the captain's body again.
He is indeed dead, no problem.
Where did that voice come from? The captain's voice—
"Even if I die, the Calamity Beast will not die!"
"You won't survive, Keke! Keke!"
Keke finally confirmed that the odor was coming from the vines.
The sounds from inside the Calamity Beast echoed throughout the entire building, reverberating from floor to floor.
Have the captain and the Calamity Beast become one?
Feeling a slight chill, Keke forced herself to stand up and gripped the seed tightly once more.
The transformation cooldown period hasn't ended yet, and the effects of the Witch Association are still ongoing.
Even after the cooldown is complete, transforming again is still dangerous.
A vine wrapped around her neck and limbs, lifting her up.
Even the Miracle Seed in their hands was taken away.
"Bring double the miracles and happiness? Dream on! You'll only ever bring disaster, Keke!"
Keke tried hard to pick up the Miracle Seed that had fallen to the ground, but the vine pulled her back with a little force.
On the vine-covered wall ahead, the captain's ferocious, distorted face appeared:
"Because you killed me, this A-level Calamity Beast is about to go berserk, and no one can handle it!" the captain mocked Keke. "This is your doubled miracle and happiness, Keke! Now everyone in Beihai —most of Beihai's people—has fallen into a deep sleep. Disaster Countermeasures Bureau in other cities haven't received the news and can't possibly come over anytime soon. In half a day, just half a day, the A-level Calamity Beast will flatten Beihai!"
"You've been a jinx since you were a child, and you'll be a jinx for the rest of your life!"
"You'll only bring disaster and suffering to everyone! I'll make you see with your own eyes how you destroyed Beihai. Your friends, your classmates, your family—you killed them all, just like you killed your own parents!"
"Boom!"
A dazzling purple light tore through the vine-covered walls, enveloping the entire building.
A blazing, exploding purple fire dragon charged into the building!
Thousands of vines coiled around her, but they were reduced to ashes in the purple flames. The dragon grabbed Keke, who was entangled, and the bursting purple flames instantly burned away all the vines on Keke's body!
Keke closed her eyes in fright, but immersed in the purple flames, she only felt as comfortable as warm water.
Before she could think any further, the fire dragon had already grabbed her and rushed out of the building!
The fire dragon pierced through the entire floor like a cannonball, and the glass and concrete instantly shattered from the floor with the shockwave!
The Calamity Beast above plummeted another floor, its entire body covered in purple flames, letting out a mournful Calamity Beast. No matter how it swung its vines, it couldn't extinguish the flames!
The strong wind made Keke Coco to open her eyes. When she finally did, someone grabbed her by the back of her collar and lifted her up like a cat.
She looked up and gazed at that stunningly beautiful face, which was breathtaking at any time. Keke stammered, "Teacher Shion— "
"Don't speak, look carefully."
Shion's tone was indifferent, yet carried a hint of a teacher's urging, "Remember, and then practice hard."
Keke then looked at a floating white cloud above the A-level Calamity Beast that covered the entire building.
It suddenly caught fire!
The raging flames transformed the white clouds into a purple half-finger.
It looked a bit like Ms. Shion's little finger, and then that half finger pressed down.
The burning vines evaporated in an instant!
The entire building exploded starting from the top floor, melting and splattering reinforced concrete!
The load-bearing columns and steel beams bent first, then broke, and the building collapsed layer by layer like a chain reaction of building blocks!
Blinding blue and white arcs of electricity darted wildly through the air, the crackling sounds quickly drowned out by the deafening roar of the collapsing building. The lights on the lower floors flickered wildly, as if they had touched some electrical wires or boxes.
Then darkness descended completely, and the scattered steel bars, furniture, glass, and other ruins were melted in the purple flames. Only a gray wave of cement ash, dust, and harmless debris surged outwards!
The rows of cars parked on the roadside were almost completely crushed, sirens blared, explosions occurred, and they burst into flames.
Coco's ears were almost pierced by the destructive sound. When she came to Keke senses, she found that the building was now just ruins, with a few vines twisting and struggling in the flames.
Keke opened her mouth wide.
She thought that by advancing to the New Sprout Stage, she could finally get a little closer to Ms. Shion.
However, the stronger you become, the clearer it becomes how enormous that gap is.
"Have you learned it?" Shion asked. "Heavenly Rank Magic Technique: [ Great Desolate Heaven-Imprisoning Finger, Half a Finger Shakes Heaven and Earth.]"
The Azure Cloud Sect's Magic Technique is the most useful and also one of the most popular.
Keke opened her mouth, wanting to say that she had learned it.
But I didn't understand it at all!
Oh no! The teacher went to so much trouble to teach her a skill, and she didn't learn it at all. Will she disappoint Teacher Shion? If she's disappointed, will she never teach her again? That's absolutely unacceptable!
Shion raised an eyebrow, a hint of doubt in her mind. Could it be that her teaching skills were really that bad?
That attack just now was quite cleverly planned, using only techniques and methods that New Sprout magical girl could master. Even if Coco is slow-witted, she Keke see through it, right?
There shouldn't be anyone who couldn't learn such a simple magic technique, and then he sensed an ominous aura.
The witch's costume that Keke wore, which was originally incomplete, actually began to grow a little longer.
Then she heard Keke's cold, mocking laugh, "This? For someone like me who's already Complete Witch, it's completely unnecessary."
Her expression and tone were completely different from the previous Keke, and she exuded a thick, Filthy Magic Power.
A second personality after she became a witch? Interesting.
But why is my second personality mimicking my speech?
Shion was slightly puzzled, but didn't think much of it and casually threw Keke on the ground.
Extending her small, rounded index finger, the pale purple nail polish seemed to be burning, and a giant finger appeared above Keke. "Have you fallen into the Magic Dao? Then let you experience the Great Desolate Heaven-Imprisoning Finger yourself and wake up."
Before even half a finger's width of space in the sky had arrived, the terrifying power caused the ground around Keke to crack and collapse!
The witch's costume on her body vanished in an instant, Keke knelt down on the ground with a "thud".
"I'm sorry, Shion- sensei. I didn't want to disappoint you, so I pretended to be a witch with a second personality. I wanted you to think that it wasn't me who was useless, but the witch version of me who was useless. I was wrong, I'll never do it again. Please don't kill me."
