Absolutely impossible.
But after eliminating all other answers, only one explanation remained.
Hundred Eyes painfully concluded: "This Ti Slice's force clearly cos from profound magic skills. To clash head-on with the dead crab requires qualified origin, not to ntion she had the upper hand. Blocking that tentacle monster's attack relied on Regalia defense... Hyacinth is a Magical Girl with all three elents complete."
"So there's no need to amplify one elent's ability to cover other needs. For instance, rather than using ti magic to dodge, leave it to Regalia defense. Each fulfilling their role is stronger."
Hearing this, all Disaster Beasts felt their hearts sink. Though knowing it defied common sense, the facts were before their eyes—or was there another explanation?
"Correct."
Hibiscus's frank admission made the attackers even more uneasy. They saw her cross her arms with no signs of weakening aura, very much trending toward fighting more fiercely and taking several heads. Should they really fight to the death with such a monster?
At this mont the silver-haired girl's tall figure had beco towering, full of oppressive force. Single-handedly giving the Fallen Zone depths fear in several rounds.
Before Hyacinth, they'd never imagined facing a flawless Magical Girl.
Though she hadn't directly acknowledged the strongest title, others wouldn't recognize soone who was strongest out of pride. The so-called world's number one needed both spirit, willpower, combat intelligence, and flawless power—Hyacinth was worthy of it all. Only after truly fighting did they understand how terrifying she was. Passing by felt like a predator opening its bloody maw. Now she overlooked the entire Departure Island selecting prey.
"Who's attacking first?"
When the question rang out again, the Disaster Beasts instead contemplated retreat. So ordinary types were already keeping distance, because the ultra-efficient machine Magical Girl Tulip, skilled at clearing fodder, was continuously recovering.
If they delayed further, these ordinary Disaster Beasts absolutely had no survival space—certain death. Better to slip away now while they could, avoiding being used as sacrificial offerings.
Disaster Beasts around Departure Island quickly retreated. Even Gray Wolf and Otter hiding in shadows looked at each other in confusion.
Worthy of their kind—coming hastily, leaving hastily, never lingering.
In contrast, the remaining Hegemon Disaster Beasts had no intention of retreating, instead pressing forward nacingly, each baring fangs and claws, obviously unable to swallow this humiliation. But then again, they couldn't devour such an over-spec Magical Girl like Hyacinth in a short ti.
Anger was anger, but they were actually in a dilemma—fighting wasn't right, retreating wasn't right either. Soon soone helped them make the choice:
"You must stay."
The Lurker looking at Hibiscus pointing at it imdiately felt its heart skip a beat. Sure enough, its spatial concealnt ability was targeted—she directly nad you must die, no room for argunt.
It didn't take it to heart—this was confidence brought by power. The key was allies' reactions.
Hundred Eyes, full of cunning ideas, secretly restrained its pressure, while Light Anemone remained composed, believing it could handle any situation. The remaining blockhead crab was still eager to try, not listening at all... but the divide-and-conquer tactic had succeeded, because everyone could choose to push out a scapegoat when necessary.
Whoosh!
Suddenly the silver-haired girl vanished from her original position. The instant dizziness struck, the Lurker clearly saw Hibiscus appear beside it, thunderously stepping on its wing.
Actually daring to directly break into the pressure core circle of four Hegemon Disaster Beasts?
At this mont she maintained an unshakeable lower body stability in horse stance, forcibly pressing down the pterosaur's wing. Then the fist buried at her waist shot out like an unsheathed blade, her entire person firing power outward. Magnificent might was grasped into one stream in the top expert's hands, striking the bullseye. This was a ray of light—other Disaster Beasts never expected one person could create a mushroom cloud with pure fist power, the shockwave forcing back those attempting to interfere.
The Lurker felt its internal organs shake, churn, bleed internally, then overflow its throat as it spat out a large mouthful of blood mixed with organ fragnts.
"Didn't pierce through? You're quite tough."
"Because I ca prepared." Before words ended, it devoured the tumor hidden under its wing. "All my energy reserves can be used on you, Hyacinth. I will devour you."
Almost simultaneously Armored Artillery pounced with a swinging strike, but Hyacinth seed to have eyes in the back of her head, dodging sideways without turning around. Sneak attacks were aningless to her.
The next mont Light Anemone like Hundred Eyes shot out light constructing even denser light rain covering this area.
"Ti Leap."
The Disaster Beasts watched helplessly as Hibiscus used Ti Slice to erase 3 seconds of damage she should have taken, her ethereal body actually passing through the light rain in reverse.
Monts later the silver-haired girl walked openly out of the attack destination.
Little did they know the underlying principle was very complex. Ti Leap usage generally targeted attacks themselves for erasure. Encountering ultra-wide range with an added layer of unpredictable reflection was almost guaranteed hits. But under large enhancent potion state, Hibiscus's ntal power, magic manipulation, and physical coordination reached perfection. She boldly used Ti Slice on herself to erase the ti period of taking damage. Visually it indeed looked more like etherealization passing through attacks in reverse.
Was this very similar to the Ti Slice netizens once described? At this mont Hibiscus seed to grasp sothing in her super-enhanced state, but it was just a line of thought—not enough yet.
She was exploring inspiration while Disaster Beasts were shocked beyond asure. Even hegemons hadn't expected anyone to last so long in four-against-one situations—definitely a monster. You were more suited for this place than Tulip.
One crucial indicator: after a period of high-intensity fighting, Hyacinth remained uninjured.
aning no need to allocate magic power for regeneration. Under equal consumption, the side in complete condition had actually opened a gap.
Ridiculous!
The current strongest Magical Girl displayed continuous ntal sensing making sneak attacks impossible, thick and bottomless origin strengthening every attack, physical qualities capable of arm-wrestling Disaster Beasts, Regalia that took a full round of light rain without a scratch and could even return magic power along original paths... and under all these foundations, highly fault-tolerant ti magic, plus complete understanding of her own weaknesses.
What defined the strong? Magical Girl Hyacinth fighting many without disadvantage taught everyone a lesson. Even fierce Disaster Beasts felt chilled.
Moreover, the opposing Hegemon Disaster Beasts equally combined chanisms and stats.
Without any dilution, this was a high-end peak battle of strong versus strong. Five participants exhausted wisdom, power, and on-spot reactions—the most valuable battle since the Fallen Zone's birth, unprecedented.
"But you can't maintain this state anymore, right?" the Lurker said quietly.
Keen high-tier Disaster Beasts could better sense target life force changes. Hibiscus, whose enhancent potion effects were gradually weakening, could hardly maintain the previous ultra-high intensity combat style.
"You're dead."
"It's you all who are in danger."
Before words ended, an island within Departure Island's field of view broke through heavy encirclent, advancing layer by layer, striking directly at the destination. Another full five Growth Stage Magical Girl pressure waves locked on, ready to trigger.
People on Hermit Island had long been restless because Hibiscus went ahead for support, after all she might face four Hegemon Disaster Beasts alone—truly nine deaths, one life.
Facts proved worries were ultimately unnecessary. From far away they could sense intense aura collisions in stalemate.
Magical Girl Hyacinth single-handedly maneuvered around four veteran high-tier Disaster Beasts. Previously unimaginable, yet happening before their eyes. This undoubtedly greatly boosted Salvation Church's morale.
At worst, we'll fight you to the death.
Admittedly, excluding the out-of-spec Hibiscus, remaining Growth Stage Magical Girls were basically at disadvantage against Hegemon Disaster Beasts, but not without fighting chance.
At this mont Ruan Manyue responsible for steering shouted: "Entered visual range."
"Act according to plan. Use ntal power to calibrate positioning assist weapons. No need to conserve—fire all conventional ordnance." Nan Zhiyi commanded sternly: "Saving even a trace of magic power counts as advantage. Launch!"
Hermit Island's long-prepared fire positions shot out stream after stream of light—missiles, rockets, artillery shells, and air-dropped bombs covering targets together.
The first to suffer strikes were ordinary Disaster Beasts attempting escape. These unlucky creatures had just avoided the battle between strongest Magical Girl and hegemon rulers, only to face head-on a super ammunition depot capable of arming an entire fleet. Though the Fallen Zone depths environnt greatly affected weapon performance, with magic assistance there were no problems—now they beca death gods.
High-tier Disaster Beasts possessed powerful protective origin, but below this they could often be hard by conventional firepower. The unlucky ones now cried in pain.
Rumble!
However, continuously climbing firepower output drowned out wails. Only explosive impacts on eardrums remained, gunpowder sll pungent.
Regular forces were entering the field, not being polite with enemies at all.
According to initial planned cooperation, Magical Girls conducted focused fire siege on scattered Disaster Beasts with amazing killing efficiency. Almost all the way forward, blood flowed, clearly charging into the core of four hegemon clusters' encirclent with unstoppable montum.
Any other force would have died countless tis, yet Salvation Church openly pierced through Disaster Beast encirclent, killing right before their eyes in several breaths.
Vanguard and Boss Disaster Beasts along the way completely couldn't obstruct—the combat power gap between both sides had opened.
At this mont with Minase Kaori and Elsa as core forming assault positions, all remaining Seedling Stage Magical Girls conducted precision siege killing to quickly resolve enemies. The remaining triple awakened handled ordinary Disaster Beasts—all sides cooperated tightly, fulfilling duties.
As for Jin Yulu, Nan Zhiyi, and Jin Ruochu, they were ready to strike, pressure openly venting out, firmly locking onto powerful targets.
This was an army!
Even Hegemon Disaster Beasts felt uneasy.
All due to Magical Girl Hyacinth's beyond-category performance, forcibly dragging the battle to this point. Salvation Church lived up to its na, actually bringing out such ultra-luxurious lineup.
"You're really lively enough. How could I be left out of such fun—"
Suddenly lightning penetrated heaven and earth. Overflowing magnetic field might like a protective shield circled twenty kiloters around. Seawater surged, clouds moved in all directions. Even the Fallen Zone's nature was responding to the strongest elental magic user's return. That aura climbing steadily represented the master continuously breaking limits, fighting spirit soaring.
Tulip felt life's most beautiful day was this mont—surviving deadly siege from powerful enemies, comprehending magic's next stage, encountering compatriots...
"All good things let catch up with—this is fate's compensation for my eighteen years of wandering."
"Let join you."
Her voice spread everywhere full of enthusiasm. Such smoothness instead made Church mbers slightly stunned. Rarely did this wild lady not develop social anxiety from years of living, even having social terrorist potential.
"To be honest, this is one of the Church's objectives for this trip. I'm called Hyacinth, the organization's leader. Welco, Miss Tulip."
Though the opponent's intelligence capability made the red-haired girl marvel, she still firmly grasped the extended hand.
The two had already cooperated once and understood each other. Now she was still amazed at what potion let her recover from near death to full health—simply incredible. Moreover, Hyacinth should be very famous outside, otherwise even Hegemon Disaster Beasts wouldn't know her by reputation. Plus, Pseudo Magnetic Field's emotion sensing ability let Tulip judge people well—the future leader before her was absolutely trustworthy.
Hyacinth didn't lie. This trip ca for .
Piles of questions to ask, but Tulip swallowed them all. Never mind—first solve present difficulties, discuss the rest later. Anyway, she already had belonging—vast sky and sea, great prospects ahead.
Witnessing Salvation Church's on-site boss recruitnt, Hegemon Disaster Beasts couldn't hold it together. Offense and defense switched.
Current status: Hyacinth had exited explosive state returning to Growth Stage, but with all three elents complete and each on the verge of next stage breakthrough, how bad could she be?
Plus Tulip with eighty percent condition recovered—how troubleso needn't be elaborated.
Adding five Growth Stage Magical Girls arriving together at the battlefield, their previously mobilized side was actually at military disadvantage.
Hegemon Disaster Beasts had to start calculating: top combat power was 4 versus 7, main forces had considerable vanguard and boss numbers counting as advantageous, not without fighting chance. The key was organizational difference.
"Can't delay anymore. Must call back marginalized high-tier guys." Hundred Eyes said quietly: "Also send forces to the center to stimulate egg growth."
"You're crazy? Obsidian isn't stable yet."
Always straightforward Armored Artillery thought there was still winning chance. Moreover, they all knew the strange Disaster Beast gathering all magic power in the central area was the true monster among monsters, even arrogantly naming this place its cultivation ground, calling itself the Primordial Sage. Born from Disaster Beast flesh energy and humans once possessed by the Fallen Zone, seemingly also guided by dark fairies—no easy opponent regardless.
If prematurely awakening the Sage for battle would definitely enrage it. No one could stay out of it.
"Precisely because I'm not crazy that I'm making decisive decisions. Don't think you can still control the current situation. Do as I say."
After Hegemon Disaster Beasts exchanged opinions, they authorized Hundred Eyes to release flesh avatars at maximum speed leaving the battlefield center—in so sense, gifts for the Sage.
Simultaneously the Lurker flew toward the sky shrieking and roaring. Sounds echoed through Fallen Zone depths at ultra-high frequencies, shocking all directions. Instantly corners responded with successive roars, even high-tier Disaster Beast auras existed.
Even the core zone military base sensed trouble.
Josh gazed gravely toward Fallen Zone depths. At this mont she was certain Hegemon Disaster Beasts and Salvation Church were fighting to the death.
Big developnts!
South Pacific Theater Command continuously received ssages from all sides, including but not limited to:
"Holy Relics Pasha and Philona have dispatched puppets into Fallen Zone depths, confirming all four Hegemon Disaster Beasts participating in battle, targeting siege of one elental magic user, Hyacinth intervening. After brief battle, entire Church reinforced"
"Energy reactions show at least two high-tier Disaster Beasts rapidly approaching battle center. This battle's total scale may exceed conflicts of 10 Ancient Holy Relics"
"Spy satellites confird magic hurricane signs, speeds exceeding 150 km/hour, accompanied by frequent thunderstorm reactions"
"Communication conditions improving..."
"Latest battle situation: Four Hegemon Disaster Beasts and Church's four main forces officially engaged, other levels have various scale conflicts, currently Fallen Zone depths Disaster Beasts mobilized over 50,000 troops"
Continuous reports made even experienced President Bull feel tight inside.
Should he be happy? Regretful? Unknown. Only thought this war was sliding toward unpredictable directions, spiraling out of control into ultra-large-scale battle.
Besides the president, staff in the command room were equally solemn. Even Snow Maiden's group was serious. At this ti Croft and Dorothy continuously discussed counterasures preparing to guard against spillover or provide support, but couldn't decide for the mont. Other officials mostly chattered among themselves. At this mont they were like frightened small animals discussing anxiously, but no one thought this attitude excessive.
The world's number one Magical Girl Organization going all-out against Fallen Zone depths Disaster Beast forces—aftereffects were imasurable.
Put yourself in their shoes—if Hyacinth led such lineup to storm New Allied Forces, then without Holy City Association's full support they'd definitely collapse instantly. Similarly, if such strong force got trapped in Fallen Zone depths, it would damage human faction's overall strength.
Absolutely impermissible!
President Bull decisively said: "Imdiately notify Snow Maiden and Pharmacist to form elite units heading to the Church's predetermined withdrawal route for support, providing fire support when necessary."
"What about Disaster Beasts at the depths' edge actively attacking support groups?" Croft asked.
"Then naturally, where enemies can go, so can we."
Forr opponents, now partners understood each other actually favored tough approaches. Since the Magical Girl Organization made big moves, no reason to sit idly by. Should seize this opportunity to expand results, aid allies.
Their unwavering decisions left the command room without wavering. At this point, no room for hesitation—must act quickly.
Dorothy added: "Imdiately dispatch rapid reaction forces to strike the remaining 30% Fallen Zones in outer areas. Drive away everything possible."
Bang!
Suddenly the conference room door was pushed open. Bursting in energetically was a woman with black and white heterochromatic eyes.
"Bring four people. I'll be the rocket booster to send everyone over."
Before words ended, Snow Maiden, Witch, Illusionist, and Philona stepped forward. This lineup covered two powerful trump cards while having containnt and healing positions—truly comprehensive, belonging to the most complete formation currently available. They weren't going to fight but mainly for support, so this combination was flawless—excellent judgnt from battle-tested experts.
Thus South Pacific Theater Forces split into two groups rapidly reinforcing Fallen Zone depths. Everything happened too fast—the world only realized turning points were imminent.
❀⋆｡°✿☆❀✿°｡⋆❀
At this mont Departure Island fragnts and Hermit Island collided with each other, finally creating thunderous impacts as they scraped past during wild charging advances.
Rumble—
In one corner of the chaotic battlefield, Salvation Church's main base relied on collision kinetic energy to give itself reaction force. Helen and Zoe activated precise control making the island begin turning direction. After all, this place wasn't suitable for long stays. Since confirming Tulip's joining, ti to withdraw quickly.
Noticing this, the Lurker shouted: "Stop them."
However, two high-tier Disaster Beasts just arriving at the battlefield were respectively intercepted by Elsa and Minase Kaori. Both sides at full condition fought intensely for the mont.
Worse was that mostly recovered Magical Girl Tulip road the battlefield, displaying high mobility, high damage, wide-range characteristics like entering uninhabited territory, slaughtering Disaster Beasts. The legion suffered terribly.
The one responsible for containnt should have been the Lurker with spatial movent ability, but it faced the most terrifying enemy.
"Ti Deceleration."
A pulling force forcibly captured the pterosaur's body—slow and sluggish, even thinking pushed beat by beat, watching helplessly as Hibiscus ca beside it.
The silver-haired girl as usual didn't use magic's sub-abilities unnecessarily, purely using origin-enhanced fists to strike the target. A full fivefold relative speed change made her seem to swing afterimages tearing the Hegemon Disaster Beast's supposedly tough flesh. Pop—blood and flesh exploded, half a wing plus part of the torso annihilated.
The greatly shocked Lurker hastily flew at full speed creating distance.
Too terrifying. Because no need for detailed magic operations to supplent defense, offense, and other shortcomings, Hyacinth only needed to use most basic skills. For instance, Ti Slice was just damage, rarely leaping through ti for etherealization. Similarly, deceleration was just deceleration, no need to use this to drag enemies since her own speed was fast enough. Growth Stage Magical Girls with all three elents complete were full of battlefield dominance, making battle-tested hegemons nearly breathless.
"Stinking bird, still need my support." At the critical mont Light Anemone shot a charged beam directly at Hibiscus's back.
She turned to block with one hand. Protection from Regalia and origin resistance actually forcibly scattered the attack, while the free other hand made the Lurker not dare to attack strongly.
Crack!
The instant light dispersed, Hibiscus's right hand had vaporized to powder, leaving only a severed wrist. After all, this wasn't an enhancent potion state now.
But regeneration completed in 3 seconds at efficiency making even high-tier Disaster Beasts' scalps tingle.
A guy gathering high speed, high perception, high defense, high HP, high attack plus super-speed regeneration—was this human? Excluding signature Sands of Ti magic, could completely call herself Humanoid Disaster Beast. Regardless, Hyacinth's first injury since battle began. There was hope!
"Actually daring to harm her while I'm watching."
Always emotionally stable Nan Zhiyi showed anger, pressure suddenly climbing. Unprecedented large-scale Domain Projection covered twenty kiloters around, containing the entire battlefield.
Even proud Light Anemone couldn't help raising full alert. No choice—Salvation Church's battle deploynt was too disgusting.
As wide-area high damage dealer, it encountered Magical Girl Dandelion with even larger range. The elusive Lurker was chased and beaten by Hyacinth all the way. The unity of spear and shield with tenacious vitality, Armored Artillery and Protea engaged in bloody battle. Hundred Eyes capable of reflecting magic effects exchanged attacks with Manjusaka continuously converting misfortune and fortune...
All within Hyacinth's plans?
