Knowing she couldn't defeat the Guardian Knight, redith simply released all her remaining magic power, thunderously striking the spatial passage. With this blow, that fragile defense finally shattered, and a stream of evil magic power escaped.
"Well done, you're still useful at the critical mont."
With Mantle's loud laughter, rolling pressure spread out circle after circle, infecting thousands of kiloters around. All who touched it weakened or fell unconscious.
The seawater turned gray-black from sowhere unknown, so dense it couldn't dissolve, making corals and schools of fish invisible.
The clouds dispersed, but the sky wasn't clear blue—instead a black vortex connected heaven and earth, swallowing seawater and stirring terrifying tornadoes that stung people's faces. The source of all these abnormal phenona was the Catastrophic Disaster Beast's main body, that boundless form finally descending.
An island?
Its first impression was a living super-island, with mountains and waterfalls on its back, flowing misty clouds, occasionally having flying Disaster Beasts crying as they circled around—no end in sight. Compared to Aurora and Crimson Tsunami, existences that looked utterly evil at first glance, Mantle was more restrained and magnificent, conveying a vastness that made one unable to muster resistance.
Everyone felt pressure on their shoulders, ntal power scanning in all directions.
In the distant fleet, countless soldiers fainted. Even Fusion Warriors or those injected with resistance drugs were useless—it had beco a ghost ship, floating on the sea without a trace of life.
"Headquarters, calling headquarters to confirm situation?"
Josh kept pounding the microphone to no avail. The absolute pressure from the Catastrophic Disaster Beast had cut off communications.
"Don't worry about all that. Now all we can do is wait for results, placing hope in Hyacinth and the King." Dorothy leaned against the command platform and coughed up blood.
The Catastrophic Disaster Beast's pressure intensity had risen to levels that would injure ordinary Holy Relics—many people were probably in mortal danger.
Boom boom boom.
The commotion echoing across the skyline represented Mantle drawing closer.
Its target was the allied forces' elite squad. Its perception imdiately locked onto these strong individuals. Since they represented humanity's most elite combat power, all must be eliminated for safety—had to finish them during its brief critical period.
Little did it know that the King, having finished charging, had already aid at the target. His entire posture was like a javelin thrower, muscles flowing throughout his body as he suddenly hurled—
Holy Spear pierced through! Crimson light penetrated the nine heavens and depths, accompanied by the Catastrophic Disaster Beast's wailing.
The seemingly invincible massive island monster was actually bloodied, with terrifying toxic contamination rapidly spreading around its body. Evil aura cursed any life—just a wisp was enough to doom a city. It rolled in agony in the sky, earth-shattering.
That's it?
The complete Holy Spear thrown by the user himself actually achieved this level of destruction—single-target damage was indeed unexpected.
"How is it?" Hibiscus was still considering whether to use her trump card.
"This guy's ridiculously tough."
The King's face was grave as he looked up, seeing that after the attack, the massive head finally erged from the turtle shell, shaped like an evil dragon with eyes like suns.
"You're far from enough—just a performance." Next mont it suddenly mobilized vast life force to repair the wound, even forcibly suppressing that toxic contamination. But it wasn't as easy as claid—its aura had already dropped.
Hard to say there was a vast gap between Catastrophic Disaster Beast and Holy Spear. When levels weren't too disparate, it ca down to comparing reserves, and Disaster Beasts were always tenacious.
"Did you think my strongest was only this level?"
Before finishing, the King spread both hands. Invisible psychic power wrapped around the target's wound, forcibly suppressing regeneration and leaving eternal scars. Simultaneously, omnipresent toxicity continued spreading, worse than before. The cooperation of two top-tier relics was his true thod—not just damaging the target but carving a huge wound to continuously drain its life force.
Even Mantle hadn't expected such persistence, showing a trace of anger on its dragon-turtle face.
"Stay away from here."
While warning, Hibiscus activated relative flow rates to boost all teammates' movent efficiency, but the enemy moved too fast.
It roared, stirring up ripples that made even space tremble. The sea surface showed terraced levels, with the deep seabed collapsing and erupting lava. High-temperature steam beca another killer, continuously scorching the entire environnt. One strike shook nature itself, creating natural disasters. More terrifying was that spatial shattering's indiscriminate killing power.
Several severely wounded Intelligent Subspecies and Ancient Holy Relics died on the spot, while the fewer and more distant Magical Girls were also affected.
Dandelion's protective origin faded from high consumption. Just as she was about to be hit by magic impact, at the crucial mont Hibiscus used ti suspension to grab her waist with one hand, conveniently catching Jin Ruochu who'd been blown around like a tumbleweed with the other.
The pink-haired girl's eyes were dizzy as she shook her head—obviously misfortune's price had arrived along with the enemy's attack.
The spatial shock impact wave wasn't over yet. They were mountaineers in a blizzard.
"I have save points," Ruan Xinyue volunteered.
"No, Fragrant Vine and Red Spider Lily are also injured. You should retreat and maintain distance. Rose, deploy spatial barriers for cover. Imperial Flower, gather the wounded."
The Magical Girls had rehearsed too many tis in Salvation Church training. They were experienced in retreat actions and quickly reorganized. The remaining Ancient Holy Relics also barely held on, but the storm showed no signs of stopping—even intensifying with Mantle's fury—
Crack!
The King at the forefront actively disintegrated into humanoid mist—materialized Knowledge Poison.
Now Hibiscus fully understood why netizens said he was this contamination's incarnation. The strongest Holy Relic had long accepted and even assimilated with all this, so he could output at full power without restraint. But it also ant unstable humanity.
"You should leave the Fallen Zone range if possible. Rather than let this place be contaminated by Disaster Beasts, better it becos Knowledge Poison's forbidden land. No choice."
"I'll give it another hit from below, and from above too."
Suddenly rings of light appeared in the sky, projecting shocking energy from distant space. Even the furious Catastrophic Disaster Beast looked up warily.
Its unheralded arrival benefited from always hiding in Earth-Moon orbit. The user Sleeping Beauty locked coordinates from the space station, with the world's largest relic calibrating its power for a deadly strike.
Gravity cannon!
Holy Spear!
Two energy streams from above and below struck the target viciously, hitting the Catastrophic Disaster Beast without fail.
Even the island-sized massive turtle shell developed hairline cracks, with shattering sounds and blood spattering. Then origin projection emanated from around it to counter the attacks. Mantle's life force made its power rise another level. Both sides were evenly matched in a test of strength.
Boom! That unshakeable form fell from nine heavens to the sea surface.
After one strike, Ring of Levitation's shadow quickly faded—probably couldn't last long. The King, who'd fired the second Holy Spear, also had low aura.
Everyone focused on the strike's effectiveness:
The seemingly invincible Catastrophic Disaster Beast fell to the sea surface before everyone's eyes, creating a new island out of nowhere. Blood stained the sea, but unfortunately the origin projection hadn't dissipated—the terrifying energy phantom several tis its size grew more solid.
"...You're strong, but your main bodies are too fragile and lack endurance." The dragon-turtle's voice carried a hint of laughter. "Now I've weakened spatial rejection."
As stated, the magic phenona that had strongly repelled abnormalities actively dispersed. It could stay longer.
anwhile, the fairies had finally trapped the Dark Fairies in barriers.
Edwina shouted: "Don't believe its nonsense—there's still ti. Just give us a chance to free our hands and deal with the spatial passage. We can drive this guy back the sa way. After one day, the Fallen Zone's magic power will leak out and raise the world's recovery level. This is the last chance—"
"Dream on!"
Another breath attack aid at the gasping King—thunderous explosions enough to vaporize an island.
But unexpectedly, no life aura showed signs of disappearing. Hibiscus had pulled the King to appear three kiloters away.
"Can you still fight?"
"Yes. Actually, I can fuse relics and liberate once more." He sighed. "Probably the last ti—it'll likely end here."
Just as he finished, the King's aura expanded several degrees, climbing to unprecedented heights. He truly faintly matched the Catastrophic Disaster Beast's life force level, already competing in pressure terms, though this body was rapidly diminishing and would probably disappear soon.
"You should leave early. People below this level can't intervene..."
Magical Girl Hyacinth suddenly took out 4 ultra-high-energy magic crystal fragnts surrounding herself. Rolling power enhanced this body with bulging blood vessels, reaching a new realm. Vast and boundless, she forcibly climbed to new peaks despite insufficient magic environnt. Facts proved the strong transcended environnt—now she had no restrictions.
The most ancient and strongest throne was still breaking through perception, revealing trump cards in such difficulties. This gift had probably been prepared for the Catastrophic Disaster Beast long ago.
"Impossible!"
Anemone, watching from afar, was dumbfounded. If one could really forcibly break through limits, why had she been waiting?
"No, it's multiple magics fusing within the body to break limits without resonating with environnt. Isn't this self-destruction? Madman."
In terms of energy level alone, Hyacinth's pressure had exceeded expectations. Even from satellite perspective, she appeared as a terrifying vortex no less than the Catastrophic Disaster Beast, mutually crushing each other. Both sides fought desperately for life or death.
New Zealand frontline headquarters, finally establishing contact, issued evacuation warnings: complete withdrawal.
The scope was the entire South Pacific region.
They had no doubt the unprecedented war about to erupt between the strongest Magical Girl, strongest Holy Relic, and full-powered Catastrophic Disaster Beast would be historically unparalleled. No room for wishful thinking—had to distance as much as possible or everyone would be cannon fodder sacrifices. The fleet no longer needed to maintain military strikes—should preserve living strength.
"Go."
Jin Yulu, taking temporary command, hurriedly waved signals. Hearing this, the Magical Girls flew toward the Fallen Zone edge while providing mutual cover with Ancient Holy Relics.
From the start, both organizations had agreed to only deploy strongest trump cards against catastrophic threats.
Strictly speaking, Ring of Levitation's user could strike another round, but being unstable had to be excluded. The focus was controllable power implenting tactical arrangents—now the situation where King and Hyacinth carried the burden.
Their backs blocked the pressure trying to lock onto others, refusing to let Mantle leave. This was gladiatorial combat.
So surviving Intelligent Subspecies were completely confused, wondering if Mantle really didn't plan to restrain itself at all and destroy everything?
Unknown to them, most shocked was the Catastrophic Disaster Beast. Originally certain that killing just the King would suffice, but you suddenly elevated a whole level? Not finished yet—then the ti-magic Magical Girl also suddenly exploded, even surpassing the forr.
anwhile, the fairies indeed kept their promise to repair the spatial passage. If they completed it, the turbulence's own suction would pull at itself.
Countless Disaster Beasts on its back roared, trying to join the battle but were stopped by Mantle's pressure.
"You can't intervene. Though combat isn't my specialty, I don't mind either."
"The third Holy Spear will completely crush it."
"I'll create an opportunity for you."
The two quickly exchanged opinions and reached agreent. Brief shoulder-to-shoulder combat made them trust each other's abilities—worth entrusting their backs. Theoretically, either could now resist catastrophic force for a period, but joint cooperation was more reliable. Besides, unclear how much the enemy was hiding? Nothing left to reserve—pour everything out. Wasn't there a perfect target right here?
Just as Mantle tried to move, psychic power and relative flow rates jointly trapped its body, actually slowing it to sluggish speed.
Any other creature would've been nearly frozen, but it forcibly negated so effects with exaggerated origin projection. Then the projection expanded further, clearly confrontational.
The massive phantom charged forward with overwhelming montum, unstoppable. But next mont Hyacinth's projection grasped the dragon-turtle's armor with both hands, firmly holding it back.
"Fruition Stage elents!"
"More than that." Next, Hibiscus with full regalia resonance suddenly delivered a heavy punch.
The target's organs were shocked, spitting blood. She didn't feel good either—finger bones shattered with crisp sounds while repairing. Her arm was numb, or rather the entire right half of her body was exhausted. Truly worthy of a defensive-focused existence.
Since battle began, Mantle had been bloodied multiple tis. Laypeople might think it wretched, but actually its life aura never had major fluctuations—steady as Mount Tai.
So both understood that counting on a single Holy Spear attack wasn't enough—had to accumulate sufficient injuries to a threshold.
Crack!
The King's psychic power crushed a corner of the turtle shell, exposing flesh.
"aningless." Before the Catastrophic Disaster Beast finished mocking, it saw the silver-haired girl appear at the wound from nowhere. The disparate size difference made its reaction a beat too slow—enough to beco a weakness. The strong world had no carelessness—every exchange was crucial.
When Hibiscus mobilized magic power and viciously slamd in Sands of Ti's first killing technique: Spaceti Collapse. Sure enough, spaceti distortion drilled straight in, with explosions imdiately spreading.
She learned the trick from Mantle's spatial shocks—increase magic disorder, treating others as they treat you, with full effort—
Boom!
The strongest magic's energy crashed into the Catastrophic Disaster Beast's body, exploding into mirror-shattering scenes.
