Chapter 367 Taboo
Along the street, the Sakura Judgment Squad, hidden nearby, commented from time to time as if they were watching a 3D movie in a theater: "This Abyss Werewolf obviously rushed in too early. If it had been any later, it might have seriously injured that Sylvia. "This Abyss End Worm isn't much better either. We couldn't break through your shell back then, and now it's your turn to be unable to break through Sylvia's shell, hmph."
"Captain, what type of Abyssal Beast is this Sylvia? Have you ever seen her before?"
Magical girl Yu Ming looked up at the abyssal monster that resembled a human. She couldn't help but think of her deskmate Bai Xiaodie. Could they be the same kind of abyssal monster?
After all, both were being hunted by Abyssal Beasts. Abyssal Beasts that can be hunted by Abyssal Beasts must be good ones, right?
Magical girl Yu Ming thought to herself, somewhat self-deceivingly.
The Sakura Mage shook her head. "This is the first time I've ever seen an abyssal monster like this. I didn't see it when the Black Tide crisis broke out."
"Eh, is there something you don't know, Captain? I remember during the Black Tide Crisis, Kikyo the Mage was also there...?"
The magical girl Qingmang beside him suddenly covered her mouth halfway through her sentence.
"Um?"
The cherry blossom mage's indifferent expression instantly turned cold. "Say that again?"
"Ahem, I didn't say anything. I just meant that this Sylvia looks very powerful, so we'd better be careful."
Magical Girl Qingmang coughed a few times and quickly changed the subject. She turned her head and glared fiercely at Magical Girl Yuming. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have provoked the captain to get angry.
The latter immediately lowered his head apologetically.
The Sakura Mage sneered: "Hmph, just an ordinary [Crystal Wall] level Abyss Calamity Beast. I'll take care of it myself this time. You can just watch. The price is that all your merit points for this operation will be halved."
"Ah, oh"
The members of the Sakura Judgment Team looked at each other, lowered their heads, and dared not refute.
There's no way around it; Kikyo the Magician is the most taboo topic within the Sakura Judgment Squad.
Sakura Mage turned her gaze back to the Blue Sky Street, where the battle of the Abyss Beasts seemed to be coming to an end. Most of the low-level Abyss Beasts had died, leaving only a few struggling.
On the battlefield, the dense swarm of spiders resembled a tightly wound jet machine, continuously firing venomous stingers. However, the woman was agile, dodging left and right, almost dancing among the various stingers.
While dodging, Sylvia lightly touched the ground with her feet, quickly closing the distance between herself and the Abyss Spider and the Abyss Listener, and the twin scorpion pincers that appeared on her arms slashed at them without mercy.
At that moment, a terrifying yet irresistible force suddenly rose from beneath their feet, and a bulge suddenly appeared on the flat ground.
The next moment, the Abyss Worm emerged from the ground. It was an enormous, multi-segmented life form, its body covered in dark green skin that dripped corrosive liquid.
Suddenly, the enormous mouth opened, its terrifying maw, which seemed to cover almost the sky, as if it wanted to swallow the woman whole.
Just when the members of the Sakura Judgment Squad thought that Sylvia would be severely crippled even if she didn't die, Sylvia didn't retreat. Instead, she took a step forward. Her corrosive saliva made a hissing sound when it came into contact with the woman, but the woman didn't care at all.
The next second, Sylvia's frail body began to regenerate again in front of the magical girl, her strangely plump body rapidly expanding with flesh and blood.
In an instant, it transformed into a five-meter-tall, brownish-red mass of flesh, and the terrifying worm, three or four meters wide, lunged straight down towards Sylvia.
At this moment, the seemingly harmless mass of flesh suddenly split open with a large hole, and the two seemed to be rushing towards each other.
The enormous Abyss End Worm burrowed into the mass of flesh, and the behemoth, tens of meters long, disappeared without a trace, like a train entering a tunnel.
Until the worms completely disappeared, a long, viscous tongue emerged from them and licked the remains of the abyssal beast on the ground clean in one swift motion.
As the surrounding abyssal beasts were all wiped out, the mass of flesh and blood in the center of the street began to collapse and condense back into a graceful woman.
She arrived at a clothing store, first tidying her appearance in front of the glass, then slowly turned to look at the Sakura Judgment Squad, smiling brightly, and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting, what can I do for you?"
Several magical girls looked at Sylvia's smooth abdomen, and then at the three- or four-meter-wide crater beside the ground.
It's hard to imagine that this seemingly harmless creature could devour a train-sized Abyss End Worm.
The cherry blossom mage silently walked up to Sylvia and said coldly, "According to the relevant provisions of the 'Eastern City Urban Management Regulations,' given that you are suspected of the following behaviors:"
1. Making noise late at night violates the city's noise control regulations for quiet nighttime hours, causing undue disruption to residents' lives.
2. Illegally damaging or destroying public facilities and property, including but not limited to streets and building facades, seriously harms the integrity of the community environment and public resources.
"Based on the aforementioned facts and legal provisions, you are hereby formally notified that you are required to accompany us for further questioning and processing. Please cooperate actively to jointly uphold social order and the dignity of the rule of law."
"Oh, is it that serious? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, as you all saw, I didn't start anything, I was just defending myself."
Sylvia blinked, and a few tears fell. Her eyes shone with innocence and helplessness. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest in a pleading gesture: "Magical girl sisters, I know I may have caused you trouble, but I really didn't mean any harm!"
"Besides, I have a lot of important things to do, and my family is definitely waiting for me at home! If I can go home sooner, they won't worry anymore. Please let me off the hook, please~"
Sylvia blinked, and tears seemed to well up in the corners of her eyes, evoking pity in the reader.
Seeing that an abyssal beast could imitate the human woman's demeanor so perfectly gave the magical girls around them a very strange sense of disorientation, as if the woman in front of them was really a similar person.
"I'm sorry, although I also want you to go home, everyone is equal before the law, so you still need to come with me."
The Sakura Mage gazed at Sylvia before her. Based on the battle just now, she had a rough guess about Sylvia's race: Abyss Devourer.
The cleaners of the underground world of Dongying City are willing to help clean up all kinds of debris, whether it's humans, monsters, or magical girls, as long as they are willing to pay.
"Waaaaah, can't you really make an exception? I have so much money. If you're willing to let me go, I'll give you all my money. Don't worry, it's all my hard-earned money."
Sylvia's voice is clear and sweet, and paired with her innocent big eyes, it's truly hard to resist her.
The Sakura Mage remained silent, her pink eyes gazing at her quietly.
At this moment, the surrounding Sakura Judgment Squad also spread out in perfect unison, completely surrounding Sylvia.
"Since that's the case, then let's go. To be honest, I'm also a little curious about the strength of your Sakura Judgment Squad. Seeing that the other party really didn't want to let her leave, Sylvia's lips curled into a smile. Since becoming an Abyss Demon General, she hasn't had any impressive achievements in the human world, which means she has no say in the Abyss Demon General circle.
"Please don't let me down!"
"snort."
The cherry blossom mage gave a soft hum, and her figure vanished swiftly.
At the same time, cherry blossoms began to fall slowly from the sky.
Sylvia wasn't afraid at all; she even reached out her slender, fair hand to gently touch the beautiful cherry blossoms.
The next second, a thin bloodstain suddenly appeared on her palm, and a few bright red blood droplets fell to the ground.
"Hiss, these cherry blossoms must be made of knives."
However, the only response she received was a katana that gleamed with a cold light. This katana was extremely sharp, and even when the blade sliced through Sylvia's body, she did not notice anything unusual.
She felt a cool sensation on her neck and instinctively reached out to touch it, only to find nothing there. Where did the head on her neck go?
Unconvinced, she bent down and touched the ground, finally finding a familiar head.
Oh, so it fell to the ground!
Above the sky, the Sakura Mage looked at the headless woman beneath her, her expression still indifferent. She didn't believe that Sylvia could be killed so easily.
"Purifying Realm - Demon-Slaying Slash!"
Her lips parted slightly, and countless cherry blossom petals swirled around the cherry blossom mage. She raised her katana high above her head, and the halo of petals instantly transformed into a sharp pink light.
Where the sword points, justice will prevail.
The next moment, she swung her sword down, the blade's light like the first ray of dawn piercing the night, aimed directly at the crystal core that Sylvia was tightly wrapped up.
"Oh dear, if I hadn't caught that attack, I would have been broken!"
Sylvia picked up the head from the ground and put it back on her neck, looking at the pink sword light flashing down from the sky with a hint of fear.
No sooner had she finished speaking than the slender woman underwent a sudden and drastic change.
This time, however, she did not transform into a mass of flesh and blood as before. Instead, she transformed most of her body into the hideous form of the Abyss End Worm.
Moreover, this abyssal worm was even larger, winding and twisting, its entire body covered in jet-black scales. "Roar!"
The Abyss End Worm roared, and its massive maw was covered with a dense array of sharp teeth, arranged closely together, reflecting a cold, icy light, as if the gates of hell had suddenly opened.
Even the well-informed Sakura Judgment Team felt a chill run down their spines at the sight.
The Sakura Mage snorted coldly and charged forward, wielding her katana.
Like a meteor streaking across the night sky, it slashed towards the body of the Abyss End Worm with unparalleled momentum.
When the blade touched, it should have torn apart all obstacles, but all that was heard was the sound of metal colliding and sparks flying.
But the once indestructible Sakura Cutter could not leave the slightest mark on the surface of this Abyss End Worm.
"Oh dear, it's not working at all. Looks like it's my turn to make a move." The next second, the enormous and terrifying body of the Abyss End Worm suddenly twisted and quickly crushed towards the Sakura Magician.
In the sky, a girl in a black evening gown was hurrying towards the Blue Sky Street in the Asagaya area, holding a ball of orange slime in her hands, which she occasionally kneaded, and the slime in her palm looked very happy.
("ω=")
Behind the girl was a middle-aged man in a suit and sunglasses.
Yes, Abyss Flame Dragon, Bai Xiaolong.
My current role is Miss Bai Xiaodie's bodyguard.
"Little Dragon, do you mean you failed to compete with Sylvia for the Abyss Demon General back then?"
"Um."
"So, what kind of abyss race does Sylvia belong to?"
"Abyss Devourer".
"Oh, no wonder."
Huan Die rested her chin on her hand and slowly said, "So, although most of the Abyss Calamity Beasts have broken free from Sister Yingluo's control, they are actually still willing to obey Sister Yingluo's orders."
The Abyss Flame Dragon nodded, then shook its head: "The betrayal of the Abyss Demon General Insect Demon Gao Kangda has dealt a great blow to Princess Yingluo's prestige. As an Abyss Demoness, she couldn't even defeat her own Abyss Demon General, which has led many Abyss creatures to believe that Princess Yingluo is no longer capable of leading them to glory."
Although most of the Abyssal Beasts have not yet actively pledged allegiance to the Demon Sword Grammer, as long as Princess Ivy does not restore her prestige, a steady stream of Abyssal Beasts will continue to join the Demon Sword Grammer every single day.
Phantom Butterfly:
Huan Die took a deep look at the big guy behind her. Every word he said was about Demoness Yingluo, but why did it feel like he was talking about her in his words?
Bai Xiaolong grinned, his rugged face radiating an innocent and harmless aura.
"snort."
Huan Die gave a soft hum, her fair hands continuing to knead the orange slime in her hands.
When she saw the other person's expression of enjoyment, her mood immediately brightened.
Slimes are better; they can help her relieve stress at any time.
Unlike other abyssal beasts, which only try to increase her pressure.
Boom!
The girl looked in the direction of the sound and saw that not far from the street, a dazzling pink light suddenly illuminated the entire sky.
"Wow, that's quite a fight over there."
"Let's go over there and see if we can break up the fight?"
"Yes, Your Highness, Illusionary Butterfly."
Bai Xiaolong sighed helplessly. This Princess Huandie is good in every way, so why is she unwilling to take things a step further?
In the Blue Sky Street of Asagaya Ward, the Sakura Magician returned to the sky with a gloomy face. "So tough! This Abyss Beast transformed by Sylvia is clearly stronger than the original Abyss Beast. Now she can be 100% certain that this so-called Sylvia is definitely not an ordinary Abyss Beast, but very likely a newly promoted Abyss Demon General!"
"That's good, she doesn't get enough out of killing ordinary abyssal beasts."
"Purifying Realm - Holy Light to Vanquish Evil!"
The Sakura Mage gave a soft shout, and the Sakura Cutter in her hand, originally a sharp samurai sword, suddenly transformed into an ancient and mysterious white seal script talisman, which looked rather ordinary from a distance.
But with her soft exclamation, the talisman suspended above her palm began to tremble slightly. Then, every cherry blossom petal in the sky began to shimmer with pink light. They connected and converged with each other, and in an instant, these lights condensed into a dazzling pillar of light, which shot down without hesitation toward the abyss worm below.
The beam of light was extremely fast, piercing through the darkness almost instantly and hitting its target accurately.
The Abyss End Worm writhed in agony under the intense light, emitting deafening screams. The light rapidly penetrated its body, like a raging fire melting ice and snow, causing the Abyss End Worm to howl on the ground, "Hiss~ I fucking hate you fickle magical girls the most! Either you suddenly change your magical attributes, or you're perfectly fine fighting melee and then suddenly you switch to ranged attacks. You're disgusting!"
As Sylvia's form shifted again, the white rune paper in the Sakura Mage's hand was replaced with Sakura Slash. Her body shot out at incredible speed, sweeping out and striking the Abyss End Worm. This time, the worm's defensive shell was clearly not as strong as before.
puff!
The massive Abyss Worm's body was cleaved into dozens of pieces.
Then, she flew into the sky again, looking down at Sylvia below. The whole movement was smooth and natural.
There wasn't even the slightest emotional fluctuation in her eyes. She had guessed correctly. Although Sylvia could transform into various types of abyssal beasts and gain corresponding abilities, her weaknesses would also become the same as those abyssal beasts. The Abyssal End Worm was fearless of any physical attack and most magical attacks, but its weakness was also obvious: it was extremely afraid of holy light magic.
Now that her weakness has been exposed, Sylvia can finally sleep peacefully.
