Always battle-loving Jin Yulu unhesitatingly responded to Tulip, because they had to evacuate quickly now without delay—otherwise who knew how long she'd have to grind with Armored Artillery using strangulation? Long nights bring many dreams—solve it early, retreat early.
With her keen perception, she'd already noticed Jin Ruochu and Nan Zhiyi gaining the upper hand, ready to disengage and regroup with powerful strikes at any mont.
The remaining Minase Kaori, Elsa, and other core Magical Girls had stabilized the battle line, with high-end combat power confrontation broken open by Hibiscus—ti to turn this into winning montum.
anwhile Armored Artillery's struggles grew more violent, giant pincers seemingly trying to forcibly pry open the World Serpent. It cursed loudly: "You stubborn bastards, why won't you die? Especially you, Tulip."
"So I've co to end it."
Jin Yulu replied: "I've seen what you can do. Don't hold back—fire your electromagnetic cannon at it."
"Right back at you—so you can definitely survive too, right?"
The mont the two Magical Girls' gazes t, they understood each other was trustworthy. Though they each handled separate battlefields, their perception covered the entire area constantly, understanding their teammate's capabilities. From another angle, the Church's newcor needed to make a grand debut statent. The organization's most tanky super tank and strongest magical damage dealer were joining forces, bringing luxury-grade treatnt for the first of the four hegemons.
The instant pressure waves locked on, Armored Artillery completely panicked, heart pounding wildly, body numb all over—whether from strangulation taking effect or sensing trouble.
After confirming battle strategy, Jin Yulu roared, squeezing all physical capacity without reservation. Her complete mythological form expanded further, scales pushed up by muscle striations crisscrossed with veins, her power-filled physique compressing toward the center.
Crack!
The giant crab's sixteen limbs shattered one after another, struggling strength rapidly declining. What terrified it more was that even its proud armor showed fine cracks.
The World Serpent was equally covered in wounds, bleeding profusely—force was mutual, both sides competing on endurance.
Under normal circumstances it would take very long to determine victory, but with Tulip's intervention the situation beca clear. This was trust.
The red-haired girl extended her right index finger in an aiming posture. Instantly lightning storms within ten miles converged to one point, all infused into a stone block two ters in diater. The acceleration might made scalps tingle. All phenona paled as every combatant couldn't help but look toward a white-hot beam penetrating the target.
"Catch this—electromagnetic cannon incoming."
The strongest elental type's full-power strike directly hit the target. To minimize friendly damage, she aid at Armored Artillery. Natural magnetic storm power unreservedly collided.
Both entangled parties were enveloped by lightning. At the critical mont, Jin Yulu actively released her coiling grip, letting all electromagnetic explosion pour into Armored Artillery's body. The monster calling itself first among Hegemon Disaster Beasts wailed continuously, shell shattered throughout, flesh lting and flowing.
Even so, it barely held on, trying to regenerate despite severe injuries and blood loss, seemingly determined to survive the electromagnetic cannon's fiercest damage phase.
"It's not over yet." With a great shout, Jin Yulu transford to optimal half-beast form and threw a punch.
Thump!
This strike ca from vigorous origin plus mythology magic's comprehensive enhancent, exponentially increasing might—striking while the enemy was down. Sure enough, light flow penetrated through the body, tearing armor, breaking organs, together with electromagnetic force pulling at its body. Under everyone's gaze, Hegemon Disaster Beast Armored Artillery actually exploded into pieces with a bang, blood raining down, stench lingering endlessly.
Then she caught the magic crystal falling from the air, imdiately transforming back to World Serpent form to move its flesh and blood at lightning speed—smooth and extrely practiced.
Jin Yulu needed no declarations or announcents—facts spoke for themselves:
Another Hegemon Disaster Beast's fall ant the Fallen Zone depths' main combat power could no longer gain advantage over Salvation Church. At this mont Magical Girls held commanding leads in high-end combat power, almost eliminating enemies' siege possibilities.
With Hyacinth and Protea successively eliminating the Lurker and Armored Artillery, this symbolized the battle situation becoming clear—they single-handedly created victory.
Rumble!
Seeing the tide turn, Light Anemone and Hundred Eyes suddenly erupted with magical bombardnt then quickly pulled back distance.
They'd conserved strength until now precisely to avoid any unforeseen circumstances. Since the overall situation was decided, no need to keep grinding—continuing to drag on would probably cost their lives.
Salvation Church's top Magical Girl combat power far exceeded expectations, making even traditionally fierce Disaster Beasts show signs of complete collapse.
Distant military forces constantly observing battlefield changes were simply jaw-dropped. Never expecting the Church to counter-kill 2 out of 6 high-tier Disaster Beasts surrounding them—showing they weren't just an organization but possessed elite unit anti-pressure capabilities, forcibly breaking through adversity.
"Prepare for pickup."
Commander Josh decisively ordered.
Originally she thought they'd have to endure bitter fighting and sacrifice large numbers of troops. Instead, the Magical Girls relied on their own real skills and hard power to turn the tide.
The remaining two Hegemon Disaster Beasts' blatant escape completely shattered Disaster Beast army morale. Organization collapsed entirely as they fled like receding tide, racing to leave, afraid staying another mont would turn them into materials.
The Church naturally wouldn't take advantage unfairly—don't pursue desperate enemies. The urgent priority was consolidating forces for retreat.
Hibiscus's figure reappeared, calling loudly: "The Thousand-Li Viewing Mirror has recovered. Opening transmission now—everyone to your positions, prepare yourselves, grab fixed objects. We're jumping straight out."
Only then did the Magical Girls breathe sighs of relief, faces bright with joy. The crisis weighing on their hearts finally dissipated—no more worrying.
Buzz!
The long-missed reaction sound from the spatial relic made everyone feel secure. After all, with it around, the wide world had nowhere they couldn't go. Moreover, Hyacinth was cautious enough—even after winning this counterattack, she still wanted spatial jumping to leave. Truly ticulous in her work. Regardless, mission objectives achieved—everyone happy. Now withdrawing successfully was best.
Suddenly a wisp of inky black rose from the horizon.
Then an overwhelming pressure hit them. Though dozens of kiloters away, it gave a heart-stopping feeling, as if throats were seized making breathing difficult. What other powerful enemy remained?
Just-landed Tulip cried out in alarm: "It's coming—brace for impact—"
The inky black energy's true form was actually a humanoid shadow. It appeared robust like a human male throughout, with two huge vertical eyes for features and a long tongue hanging from its chin. Just hovering in air gave the Magical Girls a suffocating feeling like Mount Tai pressing down.
Splash!
The instant it beca an afterimage, Rainbow Fortress raised barriers, Swift Thunder boosted attack speed, Mountain Building Movent lifted rock walls...
"You're all too slow." An emotionless voice rang out as Hermit Island's beach splattered with blood. In one instant, a full 3 Seedling Stage Magical Girls hung by threads.
Ruan Xinyue imdiately grasped light representing save points, preparing to activate, but the next mont the inky Disaster Beast appeared beside her. A voice like death's whisper rang out: "I heard from subordinates you can reverse ti?"
Its right hand transford into a blade, slashing toward her neck at speeds none could react to—
1 centiter!
At the critical mont the inky Disaster Beast slipped and lost balance. Inexplicably unlucky, but this didn't affect the follow-up strike.
Being slow by a beat was enough. Then half-beast form Jin Yulu embraced it in close combat, hugging the enemy tight. Though severely depleted after great battle, she understood she had to risk her life stopping the legendary intelligent subspecies—this was pressure rivaling Catastrophe Disaster Beastss.
"Domain seal."
Nan Zhiyi's reaction speed was equally fast. The Small Universe sphere was about to envelop them both, but the opponent suddenly stomped down, transmitting earthquake-like might. All phenona trembled.
Like the superquake of continental collision, taking flight was futile—the force tore through the air itself, detonating the atmosphere in a continuous chain of explosions. In the terrifying energy tide, Ruan Xinyue covered her neck, stumbling as she ran, but tripped with a thump. Not far ahead lay Anri Sakagami, Yeta and Zoe on the ground, fate unknown. Just a little more to reload...
"You needn't struggle." Sohow the inky Disaster Beast had broken free, standing by the beach with several more figures in blood pools.
It was the dical team that rushed over imdiately—another hope extinguished.
Then dragon breath and planetary gravity struck it, but couldn't shake its externally projected origin protection at all. The intelligent subspecies strolled leisurely in pursuit.
Where were they?
It first discovered the nearby beach was empty without even a drop of blood, feeling like it forgot sothing. Was it to prevent spatial transmission? After such destruction, that was already successful. So that wasn't right either—cognitive obstruction.
Thinking this, the inky Disaster Beast turned to see Angela holding a huge eraser, constantly moving away.
Beside her were the just-injured Magical Girls quickly recovering after loading saves.
Insignificant. The real key was the pink-haired girl covering their retreat while facing it—that strange causal magic repeatedly made pursuit fail. Must clear the stumbling block.
The instant Jin Ruochu sensed qi locking on, she imdiately adjusted fortune protection around herself. Simultaneously Nan Zhiyi and Jin Yulu also rushed to support.
The enemy again displayed unparalleled speed.
A magical torrent knocked back two top Growth Stage Magical Girls, yet it still had ti to extend a claw toward the pink-haired girl's heart—this strike was deadly enough.
But sohow the silver-haired girl suddenly appeared in front, unhesitatingly eting the claw.
Boom!
The instant force eruption from both sides stirred rolling pressure, tearing mist, pushing back the sea, giant waves towering. The entire island trembled as two unreasonable origin forces would indiscriminately annihilate all surrounding life. In the sudden storm, Tulip carried away 3 main combat forces, while Elsa and Minase Kaori in the rear completed wounded pickup, controlling Hermit Island's barrier to collapse inward strengthening defense.
After shockwaves dispersed, only sandstorms remained on the beach. Air friction outlined flas as even distant military fusion warriors collapsed in large numbers.
What happened?
Military leadership knowing core secrets closely monitored energy level escalation before having to conclude: the intelligent subspecies the Prophecy Book warned about had appeared, its na exactly as it proclaid:
"Hyacinth, you are a worthy opponent. You may call Obsidian—the victor who will kill you."
The Humanoid Disaster Beast looked up laughing, extrely delighted, heart racing with joy.
Prematurely awakened, it was actually very angry, imdiately killing over a thousand Disaster Beasts before coming to the battlefield. But now confirming it could have a satisfying release—this was truly living.
Hibiscus didn't reply, instead looking at her right hand disappearing from the forearm down. It had actually directly broken through both protective origin and Regalia coverage—dual defenses. Against it, everything seed paper-thin. That black origin was absorbing magic power, growing stronger through battle, giving her an atmosphere of approaching death.
Why didn't she just move Jin Ruochu away together instead of eting the attack head-on? Because she couldn't manage it.
Not enough ti.
Superficially Magical Girl Hyacinth completed the rescue at small cost—2 seconds travel, 1 second kicking away the pink-haired protagonist, remaining 27 seconds all spent building power or she couldn't take this move. Why must she take the attack? Because without soone blocking front to neutralize energy, casualties would still occur.
"Tulip, use your fastest speed to take those three away." The silver-haired girl said without turning back: "Have Ruan Manyue pilot—I'll intercept the enemy."
"No!" Four voices protested in unison.
"Don't you understand? With you staying here, all ti stop opportunities must be used for rescue! One mistake and at least two will die."
anwhile Hibiscus took large mana recovery potion and large enhancent potion respectively, bringing her condition to perfect peak—montum no less than when facing the four hegemons recently. Seeing this, Obsidian's mouth curved up, eyes brightening.
Seeing this, Tulip had no choice but to take Jin Yulu, Nan Zhiyi and Jin Ruochu in rapid retreat.
At full strength they might have helped, even could have tried cross-level team battle tactics like the previous catastrophe battle. But having just experienced one-on-one combat with Hegemon Disaster Beasts with major consumption, now Salvation Church Magical Girls were all sowhat injured, not to ntion magic power deficits. Incomplete combat strength should simply distance themselves from the battlefield to avoid dragging her down, so only Hyacinth qualified to cover the rear.
Obsidian showed a sinister smile, calling loudly: "You'd better hold on a while longer or it'll be too boring."
Ti Stop!
After activation, Hibiscus broke into cold sweat—the Disaster Beast's blade-transford right hand had stopped at her heart. This guy always aid for vital points with killing moves.
Actually she hadn't seen the movent clearly, had no perception either—purely out of habit starting with ti stop, unexpectedly saving her life this way. But this was too dangerous.
The world regained color. Origin built to extre struck the intelligent subspecies' back of head, but unexpectedly during high-speed charge it suddenly changed direction, body softening boneless into thin noodles making the attack miss completely. Rumbling explosions represented Hyacinth's trendous force—regrettably, not hitting ant nothing.
Pull back distance or close combat entanglent?
Battle conditions didn't allow much thought. Then Obsidian pounced in pursuit—only adding ti stops could barely keep up.
Both figures crossed paths continuously fighting up to mid-air, bringing series of explosion clouds. Fireballs actually outlined a trajectory spanning dozens of kiloters. Their jointly erupted energy forced Disaster Beasts and humans to retreat or the steadily climbing pressure alone would be fatal.
anwhile Hermit Island continuously distanced itself as pickup forces receiving news also moved toward them.
The most dangerous gap was about to arrive.
