Three novice Magical Girls, or rather, the new generation of Magical Girls, were already prepared, and as soon as the Remnant Beast released its breath, they dodged in an instant. The attack of the Remnant Beast did not have any effect.
"We did it!"
Seeing that the attack had not only reached but even exceeded her expectations, Xia Liang couldn't help but clench her fist and quietly cheer.
"Even a chrysalis stage is no big deal!"
Lin Xiaolu retreated to her side, wearing a proud expression, "As long as we can break through the defense once, we can definitely do it a second ti, wearing this big guy down is absolutely no problem!"
"And what does that have to do with you?"
The Moke perched on her shoulder couldn't help but pour cold water on her, "Obviously, it's the other two people's Magic Equipnt at work, so why is a seed-level here blustering?"
"Huh? A Fairy that can't even keep up with flying speeds and can only perch on others has the nerve to criticize ?"
Lin Xiaolu glared at it disdainfully, "The progress of Magic Power blossoming doesn't explain everything, okay? My Magic Power has been growing continuously over the past few months, and it's definitely much stronger than a regular seed-level now!"
"Isn't that still seed-level..."
Moke muttered softly but did not refute Lin Xiaolu's statent.
Because what Lin Xiaolu said was the truth. Over those months, even though she never touched the threshold of her abilities blossoming, her Magic Power never stopped growing.
Initially, her Magic Power was not much different from that of the average seed-level, but with subsequent growth, especially after the fight at the orphanage, it had reached far beyond the seed-level.
If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xiaolu had not yet completed her blossoming to obtain her own Magic Equipnt, no one would believe she was rely a seed-level.
"You two, don't argue at a ti like this."
Xia Liang smiled sowhat helplessly on the side, rallying her own Magic Equipnt again, "Let's focus our energy on taking down this big guy now, shall we?"
"...You're right."
Lin Xiaolu, who initially wanted to argue with Moke, suddenly dropped the idea of contention and looked towards the increasingly berserk Remnant Beast nearby, gripping her Magic Wand tighter, "The battle isn't won yet, celebrating now is indeed a bit premature."
Bai Jingxuan beside them did not interject, but silently released Magic Power, playing the Music Box's lodies.
The battle comnced once again.
Chrysalis stage Remnant Beasts, compared to lower-tier Remnant Beasts, have the greatest advantage of owning their own lair and innately high defensive capabilities provided by their chrysalis shell.
However, this chrysalis, for so unknown reason, appeared alone in the city center without its lair. This also ant there were no eggs or Inchworms for it to command and use in combat, severely weakening its fighting ability.
The Magical Girls had found a way to break the Remnant Beast's defenses, essentially discovering the key to defeating it, negating all the advantages it had at its evolutionary stage. Therefore, the battle inevitably took a one-sided turn.
With Xia Liang as the lead, Bai Jingxuan providing amplification, and Lin Xiaolu offering Magic Power, the trio worked together, firing one Magic Power Beam after another through the transformation of their Magic Equipnt—an assault so powerful, it could no longer be referred to as a Magic Power Beam, but more fittingly as a bombardnt.
The continuous bombardnt sent the chrysalis in the sky retreating at every turn, increasingly emitting wails and screams as its wounds multiplied and actions grew weaker.
Clearly, it couldn't hold on much longer.
"Moke! Grab my phone!"
After launching another bombardnt, Lin Xiaolu pulled out her phone from the pocket of her apron and handed it to Moke, "Once we've taken care of this big guy, rember to take a photo for Erald Sparrow to see!"
"...Aren't you a bit too excited?"
Moke took the phone sowhat reluctantly, "Treating the battle so frivolously, be careful that the Inspector doesn't criticize you after seeing the photo."
"Erald Sparrow wouldn't do that." Lin Xiaolu was noncommittal.
"I think it's better to first explain the situation to the junior?"
Xia Liang suggested on the side, "Although we rashly challenged the chrysalis stage Remnant Beast and managed to win with the right timing and location, she'd still worry if she knew about it first thing, wouldn't she?"
"Better not to scare the teacher." Bai Jingxuan also added in a low voice.
"Hmm... that's also true."
Lin Xiaolu floated in midair and pondered for a while, then lifted her Magic Wand again, "Then, let's discuss how to report this afterwards. For now, let's first..."
She stopped speaking halfway through.
Not just her, Bai Jingxuan and Xia Liang by her side also suddenly halted. All three turned their gazes simultaneously towards the ground not far away.
The purple-black pillar of light in the center of the district radiated blinding brightness; naturally, it cast the shadows of airborne objects onto the ground, stretching them endlessly.
At this mont, an additional shadow had appeared before the three, seemingly out of nowhere.
This was an extraordinarily long shadow cast from above, faint at first but growing distinctly darker like ink as it spread to the feet of the Magical Girls.
From its shape and contour, the shadow resembled a colossal moth.
At this mont, the owner of the shadow silently hovered in front of the Remnant Beast. Its form was negligible compared to the imnse Remnant Beast, as diminutive as an ant to an elephant. However, the shadow at its feet almost covered an entire block in front of it, far surpassing the size of the chrysalis-stage Remnant Beast.
