Amidst molten iron and glass, Shion landed on the very top of the charred building.
The technology of creating a new, independent space in the real world using some kind of force now seems more like the Mental Image Domain.
However, since her trip to the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau in Beihai, she has already figured out the shortcomings of this independent space.
In order to find their way back, each independent space must have one or more connection points with reality to ensure that even if something unexpected happens, they can still find a way back.
After all, while an isolated space may seem safe, once it's completely sealed off, it becomes a true dead end, where you can experience the most desperate way to die.
Therefore, as long as the entire space is continuously heated and destroyed, when the connection between the independent space and reality begins to melt away...
In order to protect themselves, any independent space will inevitably have its entrance open.
This strategy was originally intended for the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, but unexpectedly it was used in Jiangming City.
Looking around, they found that Chilian was not there.
One by one, more than a dozen magical girls gathered from the surrounding area.
The Qingluan and the Iris were naturally among them.
Iris was completely paralyzed at this moment. She had just been bitten twice by the Gu worms and couldn't move, but Qingluan still dragged her over.
Of course, it wasn't Iris who wanted to come over, nor was it Qingluan who wanted to drag her away.
Having dragged it all the way face down, carrying contaminated seeds, she kept complaining, "Ouch, ouch!" and pleading, "Gently, gently!"
After all, Qingluan was controlled by the Mind-Bewitching Gu, so there was nothing she could do. When she got outside and saw Shion standing upstairs, she couldn't help but hold her breath.
" Shion!"
Iris, her face bruised and swollen, screamed as she was being dragged over.
It really was her, the sect leader of the Azure Cloud Sect.
Looking closely, it really is tiny...
But this was compounded by the rising purple flames all around and the shattered, distorted sky.
It only makes it harder to breathe.
"My nemesis! You've finally arrived!"
Nemesis?
Qingluan thought for a long time and came up with a bunch of ideas and tricks for Iris.
But she couldn't figure out how Iris could become her nemesis under that kind of magic.
Height?
That's a super monster that can spread magic throughout the entire Beihai in an instant, and can even concentrate magic on a building without shattering a single pane of glass around it.
Even if Qingluan exhausted her imagination, she couldn't imagine what it would be like for the two to be evenly matched in a fight.
Shion tilted her head slightly, a hint of confusion appearing on her beautiful, aloof face. "Who are you?"
Qingluan's eye twitched. She felt that laughing now seemed a bit impolite to Iris, especially given the tense situation...
But I still couldn't resist.
He chuckled twice.
However, Iris didn't care at all, and just waved her hands. "It's me, it's me, Iris, the strongest magical girl in the Beihai! Anyway, all the magical girls in Jiangming City have been controlled by Chilian! Be careful! They're serious! Don't hold back!"
Qingluan paused for a moment, about to retort.
But before Iris could finish speaking, the four magical girls had already rushed forward!
Colorful magic emanated from each of them as the four New Sprout magical girls unleashed their Masterpiece!
Scissors, hounds, lightning, and boulders rained down on the petite figure atop the high-rise from four directions!
Four purple, flaming fingers pressed down from the sky.
The four people who had been flying into the air crashed into the concrete ground at the same time, deactivating their transformation.
Qingluan glanced at them and breathed a sigh of relief; the four magical girls had only fainted.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
With a reproachful tone, Qingluan's body moved beyond her control, drawing out the card, and the other magical girls also unleashed their magic.
As Qingluan inserted the card, she looked nervously at Shion above, who was still searching for something.
Iris, however, said nonchalantly, "What does it matter? Shion will control her strength; she won't kill anyone. Don't worry."
After saying that, he shouted loudly again, " Shion! Don't worry about us! Hurry up and finish this off to find Chilian! She might have run away!"
Qingluan was startled, her mind already recalling the purple magic that permeated the entire Beihai.
Are you sure everything's okay?!
However, the words had barely left his mouth when the card was inserted into the wand, and the magic began to flow uncontrollably.
A melodious and soothing flute tune began to play.
[ Star Pattern Descent: Final Judgment.]
Large amounts of glass shards, stones, and molten concrete and steel bars were all controlled by magic and converged towards the purple figure!
Iris shouted from the side, "So cunning! Qingluan! When did your move start having its own background music? You didn't even tell me!"
"Stop yelling, it's another magical girl's ability..."
With Qingluan Iris around to look.
Sure enough, it was Shuiling Ling playing the flute in a daze, like a musical puppet.
The other magical girls had all fallen to the ground and gone to sleep before they could even use their magic, having already deactivated their transformations.
For a moment, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
While marveling at the magic of the Shuiling, he realized that it affected not only the New Sprout but also himself; it was truly amazing.
On one hand, I also feel that Jiangming Disaster Countermeasures Bureau is a bit embarrassing...
But that's fine, it saves the other magical girls from suffering.
Thinking this, Qingluan breathed a slight sigh of relief, only to find that the many miscellaneous things gathered in her Final Judgment had not trapped Shion.
All the pebbles and fragments containing her magic ignited as they approached Shion, turning into sparks.
They gathered on Shion's small, delicate fingers.
Immediately, a small, exquisite Fire Lotus bloomed from her hand.
Iris's eyes lit up, and she said to Qingluan with a hint of smugness, "See that? That's Shion's trump card, the Three-Colored Spark. It's incredibly powerful. It blew up my Mental Image Domain in one go. This should be enough to wipe us all out. Then we can go find Chilian. Don't worry, Shion is my nemesis. Taking down Chilian will be a piece of cake..."
Before she could finish speaking, the Fire Lotus swelled a bit.
Qingluan inserted another card.
She was starting to feel suicidal.
Because of Shuiling's flute playing, she is currently the only one in the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau who can attack Shion according to Chilian's orders.
Should I play Shion myself...?
[ Star Pattern Descent: Starfall.]
In the sky, a shooting star seemed to fall from the universe, locking onto Shion!
This move is incredibly powerful, but it's extremely difficult to land a hit.
Any enemy who knows how to dodge cannot be hit in one strike, so Qingluan rarely uses it. She only uses it to finish off opponents when they are unable to move or when someone helps control them.
Following Chilian's orders is not like fighting personally; it's more like being on autopilot in a card game. You don't consider the situation when using cards; you just use whichever ability is strongest.
This thing is impossible to hit...
As it turned out, Qingluan discovered that Shion had no intention of moving at all!
She was startled and quickly shouted:
"Don't try to tough it out! Starfall is..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shion simply raised the Fire Lotus in her hand slightly.
The Fire Lotus flew upwards and continued to grow larger.
The Starfall onto the Fire Lotus, just like a small piece of coal falling into a furnace, only causing a few sparks to fly.
"Well..."
Qingluan felt a burning sensation on her face.
Iris patted her cheek with a grin:
"Let me tell you, that Fire Lotus exploded within my Mental Image Domain. Although its power was immense, my Mental Image Domain was no pushover either. It fought its Fire Lotus to a standstill, but in the end, I lost..."
While listening to Iris's boasting, Qingluan's body still couldn't help but reach for the card.
The Fire Lotus above their heads suddenly expanded once more!
The already enormous Fire Lotus now Shrouding the Heavens the sky!
The Disaster Countermeasures Bureau in the Mirror World is also an industrial park. When the Fire Lotus blooms, everything in the industrial park evaporates and melts, and the acrid smell and scalding air begin to burn the internal organs.
Even the usually optimistic and talkative Iris fell silent. The two remained silent, with only the Shuiling behind them still playing.
The originally hypnotic flute music became intermittent due to the heat wave, taking on a somewhat mournful tone.
Qingluan turned to look at Shuiling, and murmured as if possessed, "It's quite fitting."
Iris asked with difficulty, "What?"
"The sound of a flute."
Iris asked again, looking rather naive, "Does that mean it fits perfectly with our efforts to fight against Shion?"
Qingluan sighed, "It means Shion is going to send us to the cemetery here."
The Fire Lotus descended only slightly, yet the entire Mirror World was ablaze!
Licking her chapped lips, Qingluan looked at the Iris beside her, her voice dry. "Are you sure you survived an attack from something like that?"
"It's gotten a tiny bit bigger," Iris said dryly, "And a bit more color..."
As the inescapable Fire Lotus fell from the sky, Iris's face finally contorted into a mournful expression.
"Well, is it really necessary to go to such lengths...? Is it too late for me to take back what I just said...?"
The Fire Lotus exploded throughout the entire Mirror World!
At the moment Shion descended, Chilian died one hundred and forty-six times.
The manner of death was very simple: when a large amount of purple magic flowed back into the Mirror World, the tall building she was in was instantly submerged.
Before she could react, Chilian had already died in the flames.
After 146 attempts, he finally used the Qingluan's ability to send himself out of the building.
The amazing thing is that she only discovered that she was the only one who died after she survived.
Neither the Qingluan nor the Iris seemed to be taking a bath in the raging flames, completely unharmed.
Then she began to frantically try to escape.
She used to like to use the word "vast" to describe magic.
But when Chilian first truly witnessed the vast amount of magic power, she realized how ridiculous her previous understanding had been.
The roaring, fiery waves were unstoppable; steel, rocks, concrete, lake water—whatever it was, the purple flames instantly engulfed and melted it, then swept it into their midst.
He lost consciousness in the surging ocean.
Chilian countless times, constantly running away, searching every possible escape route.
Although the surging magic, like the ocean, is unstoppable, its spread is irregular.
In some places the flow was slower, and in others it was faster.
Most importantly, the other party never locked onto him from beginning to end.
After all, as long as you're not touched by magic, all you need to do is avoid being seen by the other person.
Of course, once you touch magic, you're pretty much dead.
There's no need to worry about being locked onto by the other party.
While the uncontrolled spread of magic is unstoppable, the obstacles can slightly slow the speed at which the waves spread.
Six hundred times? Seven hundred times? Or nine hundred times?
Or has it already reached over a thousand?
Chilian was unaware that she had already died in a state of semi-consciousness.
They kept trying and failing, constantly searching for an extreme escape route.
The fault tolerance was reduced to a fraction of a second.
If she makes even one wrong move, she will be instantly overwhelmed by magic.
Later on, finding a route became an instinct, and they could even find their only escape route with their eyes closed.
Rolling at a fraction of a second, jumping at a fraction of a second, turning at a fraction of a second.
She didn't know how many times, perhaps tens of thousands, or maybe not that many, but through countless attempts, she finally achieved a route that passed the level without a single mistake.
When Chilian finally emerged from the Mirror World, she was even moved to tears.
Gasping for breath, she even wanted to open her arms and embrace the whole world.
I have never loved Jiangming so much!
Although it was still raining heavily outside, and the cold wind was biting.
But compared to the fiery Mirror World, Chilian felt warmer and more cared for.
I thought the Mirror World was my way out, but it almost turned out to be my grave!
Walking through the ruins, Chilian kept summoning all the Calamity Beast in Jiangming City.
Staggering along on the concrete, he still felt uneasy even with the Calamity Beast circling around him.
Although she was exhausted after surviving the ordeal, she still tried to make a phone call to the government.
Thankfully, someone answered her call.
"Hello? What happened? There was an explosion at the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau. Did you do it?"
"Send the army over here immediately..."
"What?"
"I'm telling you to send the army over! Now!"
"Okay, sure, right away. Where to send it?"
"It's the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau! Are you blind?!"
She roared angrily, completely lacking her usual elegance and composure.
Besides the Azure Cloud Sect, there is also the Holy Church.
We can't let our guard down. The people from the Holy Church are probably still looking for us. Jiang Motu, who wore a fox mask, was able to defeat the white-clad magical girl, so his strength shouldn't be underestimated.
She smoothed her damp hair and took a deep breath.
It was a mistake to turn against the Holy Church See; now we have to deal with two behemoths at the same time.
She then spoke into the phone:
"Also, take all the Calamity Egg..."
Before he could finish speaking, a wisp of heat emanated from the entrance to the Mirror World behind him.
"... activation."
As she spoke, she turned around and saw flames spewing from the entrance to the Mirror World, like a dam.
What started as a tiny flame suddenly erupted into a torrent!
This time it wasn't just purple; it also included white, a touch of green, and something she was very familiar with.
Dark, Filthy Magic Power.
Everything around was melting, and the heavy rain kept spraying moisture, turning into a drizzle.
The air burned my lungs, causing pain.
The flames did not surge in all directions and destroy the entire Jiangming.
Instead, it shot straight into the sky, igniting the heavens!
All the dark clouds were instantly evaporated and vanished in the torrent.
Even water vapor failed to form, and the sky, which had been overcast and pouring rain, instantly became calm and clear.
Her lips moved slightly, until Chilian raised her head again.
The sky was clear and blue.
The warm sunlight streamed down, casting long shadows on the ground, and when you stepped on them, you could hear a dry, cracking sound.
The weather was fine and sunny, and all was quiet.
"Snap."
When a pretty little boot stepped out from the point where the Mirror World and the real world met, the purple magical girl finally fixed her gaze on her.
Trembling, Chilian forcefully controlled the Calamity Beast to rush forward.
The purple-clad magical girl simply stomped her foot, and the surrounding ground instantly caved in!
The charging Calamity Beast was crushed, and the Grief Seed was squeezed out, then flew into the girl's hand.
"Found you."
The crisp, melodious sound had no warmth whatsoever, like glass made of ice shattering on the ground.
Chilian took a step back, her breathing becoming rapid.
Who are you?!
"Sect Master of the Azure Cloud Sect."
Her mind was a mess, but she still subconsciously tried to negotiate. "We... we don't have any reason to fight to the death, do you think? The Witch Association has always wanted to be on good terms with the Azure Cloud Sect; we've never intended to be enemies with the Azure Cloud Sect..."
Seeing that the other party remained unmoved and simply continued to walk forward.
Chilian quickened her pace, "Furthermore, the Witch Association has never harmed a single magical girl from the Azure Cloud Sect! But the Holy Church! The Holy Church just killed one of your magical girls!"
Although they didn't kill anyone, they only stole the seeds, but that's no different from killing someone.
That's not lying.
As expected, the other person stopped and looked at her silently. " Holy Church?"
"Yes, the Holy Church!"
Overjoyed, the other party's willingness to communicate meant there was a chance. " The Holy Church not only killed the magical girls in your organization, but also Witch Association, completely disregarding us. We should join forces to eliminate the Holy Church first..."
Is this what you're talking about?
A tattered fox mask appeared in Shion's hand, Shion casually hooked the mask with her fingers.
After spinning around once, it flew away.
ah?
Chilian looked down at the Holy Church Walker, Jiang Motu's mask, and was momentarily stunned.
Dead?
How could it be so fast?
Before I could think much about it, the other person walked over, holding a magic spear.
Chilian instinctively took a step back.
Then he shouted, "Come on! Holy Church! Holy Church, where are you?! Didn't you want to kill me?! Your Holy Church Walker have all been killed! Come on!"
Shion looked at her as if she were an idiot.
" Holy Church!"
With a final roar, his head was pierced through by the magic spear in an instant.
As she flipped backward, Chilian flashed a bright smile.
As expected, the other party didn't know!
At the moment of death, the Revival Gu was finally activated!
Sensing the activation of the Revival Gu, my heart finally calmed down, and I waited peacefully for the reversal.
The images before her eyes began to flow backward, but just as Shion slowly retreated back into the Mirror World, they suddenly stopped for a moment.
"Um?"
Standing in that mirror-like phantom, connecting the two worlds, he gazed at her with an indifferent expression:
"What are you doing."
My once calm heart was now filled with a raging storm!
Just as that chilling fear was about to spread in my heart...
Shion eventually retreated back into the Mirror World, and the original flames flowed back into the Mirror World, the sky was once again covered by dark clouds.
The rain was pouring down.
Coughing loudly, a sense of lingering fear welled up in Chilian's heart, and she immediately turned and ran into the distance!
Before long, the terrifying flames erupted from the Mirror World once again, clearing the sky from its scorching heat.
Just before those little leather shoes stepped out, Chilian had already run into the distance, realized that she had been locked on. Without hesitation, she turned around and faced the magic spear that the other party had shot at her.
One thousand times, ten thousand times, one million times!
No matter how many times, she will survive!
"Young friend."
A soft question rang in her ears, and the flying spear suddenly exploded into flames, engulfing her.
However, that magic made Chilian unusually cold.
What are you expecting?
The raging fire suddenly froze!
It transformed into purple ice, Freeze the Chilian within.
Along with consciousness!
