Chapter 299 The Final Attack
Nan Xiaofeng felt that she had always been unlucky.
I've never guessed correctly when answering questions blindly, I'm prone to running into Xin Yuehu when I go out, and I even get food stuck in my teeth when I eat.
But sometimes, Nan Xiaofeng felt that she was actually quite lucky.
Despite being tormented by Xin Yuehu so many times, nothing serious has ever happened. Although I can't guess the answers correctly, I always manage to pass with a low score of 60. Even when food gets stuck in my teeth, I can easily loosen it by fiddling with it.
But all those thoughts vanished the moment they saw that behemoth.
My luck has probably hit rock bottom.
"...Holy crap."
After stammering and struggling for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence, Nan Xiaofeng finally uttered a classic Chinese curse.
No words can describe Nan Xiaofeng's feelings at this moment; only this vulgar curse can truly reflect them.
"What is that? A monster summoned by Kokoro? It's huge!!"
Hyacinth called out to its companions.
Iris was speechless, Nightingale was dumbfounded, but only Lily Bai summoned her magic wand, instantly unleashing the Shadow of the Stars.
Since entering the barrier, the magic-suppressing barrier that Xin Yuehu had placed on the four of them has lost its effect.
Apart from Nightingale, who was still carrying a heavy assault rifle to supplement firepower as an auxiliary, the three members of Hyacinth returned to their normal state and unleashed their full magic.
Even with the presence of three Star Shadows, the four members of the elite team were completely uncertain.
"This size... if Xin Yuehu really releases it, the entire port city probably won't be able to contain it."
"It's iris," the flower murmured.
"We have to take it down! We can't let it get to the surface!"
"Should we take it down...?"
Nightingale muttered to herself, glancing at the terrifying size of the giant snake.
Compared to it, even the quadruple magic cannon of the Iris of Stars seems delicate and fragile, not to mention the Starry Greatsword in Hyacinth's hand.
Even Xin Yuehu's enchanted main battle tank couldn't compare to the terrifying oppressive feeling of this giant serpent!
"...Iris! Let's test its true nature first!"
"learn!"
Bai Lili said to the girl beside her, and raised her magic wand and magic cannon at the same time, and launched a combined attack on the astral serpent!
Three quadruple-mounted magic cannons, all cannons firing simultaneously!
The magic cannon and dense missile beams intertwined, striking the giant serpent's body directly and exploding into a burst of bright magical sparks.
"Crack!!!!!"
"Whoosh!!—"
Iris took a step back and loaded the magic cannon.
When the magical sparks dissipated, the giant serpent remained motionless, its blood-red tongue flicking and swaying as if revealing a mocking smile.
"Completely...completely ineffective..."
"Tsk..."
The two of them were filled with shock.
If even Iris's magic cannon can't do anything to this giant snake, are we really going to expect Hyacinth to rush up and fight this mountain-sized monster hand-to-hand?
Even Hyacinth herself was somewhat skeptical of her own abilities.
"...Retreat quickly!"
Seeing that the magic cannon and magic were all ineffective, Lily decisively changed her strategy, and the four of them turned around and ran back to the barrier they had come from without hesitation.
There's no way to fight this!
Magic was ineffective, magic cannons were like tickling, and hyacinths couldn't be expected to fight a mountain in close combat. The best option was to temporarily retreat to the ground and organize the evacuation of the masses.
But when the four of them stood at the exit of the barrier they had come from, the now-extinguished barrier poured cold water on them.
"The barrier has failed."
"Iris said in horror."
Bai Lili gritted her teeth and tried to manipulate the barrier for a while, but no matter how much magic she poured into it, the teleportation barrier showed no sign of lighting up.
The four members of the elite team were imprisoned in an ancient seal deep underground.
"We're doomed...we're not getting out..."
The nightingale collapsed to the ground in despair, terrified.
The giant serpent did not rush to attack the four uninvited guests, nor was it angry about their earlier attack. It simply looked at the four magical girls with a cruel gaze.
It didn't speak, but it seemed to have said everything.
"Why can't I open it? It was fine when we came in!"
Hyacinth rushed forward and stared at the barrier for a long time, wanting to help Bai Lili inject magic into it, but she knew that she did not understand the principle of the barrier and had no idea where to start.
Just when they were at their wits' end, Nightingale suddenly heard a familiar voice in her ear:
Miss Nightingale, can you hear me?
It was a slime familiar that had quietly drifted away.
The familiar sound emanating from its mouth, the contrast between its soft, sweet voice and its serious tone, was so striking that it made the nightingale cry out in surprise.
"Heart-Heart Moon Fox?! Why are you...?"
【This isn't the time to talk about this. You guys quickly get closer together, I'll try to teleport you back to the surface from underground!】
The golden fox's tone carried a hint of anxiety.
Who wouldn't be anxious!
Even the main characters like Hyacinth are helpless against this giant snake. If I don't do something soon, they will be wiped out on the spot by the giant snake!
"When did you bring this thing over here? Xin Yuehu! What the hell are you doing?!"
Hyacinth was both surprised and angry. Just as she was about to question the slime and cut it down with her sword, Iris covered her mouth and stopped her from raising her sword.
The latter had already guessed most of it.
Judging from Xin Yuehu's attitude, the giant snake in front of her doesn't seem to be something she summoned, and it's impossible for her to have created such a terrifying monster during her time in the port city.
If that's true, then she's definitely the strongest villain in history. Without a doubt.
This is also their last chance to escape this sealed barrier! They absolutely cannot let the reckless hyacinth cut it down!
[Iris pins her down! Now!]
Taking advantage of the brief moment when Hyacinth was silenced, Su Tianqing immediately activated the teleportation magic on the spirit slime.
The magical girls vanished instantly, leaving no trace.
The giant snake stared in astonishment at the spot where the four people had suddenly disappeared, then looked up at the ground, a ruthless glint in its eyes.
……
Meanwhile, there's a ground-level park.
The Hero Association is organizing manpower to urgently evacuate the surrounding residents.
But the port city is so big and the population is so dense, how can it be dispersed so easily?
Even though the association had prepared contingency plans in advance and mobilized all available on-duty and standby heroes from the surrounding areas, it was still a huge challenge.
Meanwhile, Aquamarine, who was anxiously waiting at the entrance, continued to call out to the four members of the elite team who were venturing deep underground.
"Headquarters calling! Headquarters calling!"
"Hyacinths! Can you hear me? Please answer if you can!"
silence.
No matter how Aquamarine called, there was no response from the other end; it was completely silent.
"Damn it! Could they be fighting that monster? How could four of them possibly be a match for it!"
Aquamarine muttered to herself.
A giant serpent bigger than a mountain? This is already a behemoth! Even more exaggerated than the Leviathan that Senior Red Rose encountered!
Just as she was about to continue calling, the teleportation magic that flickered and appeared on the park lawn immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Wheat immediately set up its magic cannon and aimed it at the direction of the teleportation spell.
Teleportation magic? The only person I know who can use it skillfully is Heartmoon Fox.
But after recognizing the four people who appeared, Hyacinth and her companions, the solemn expression on Wheat's face was suddenly replaced by astonishment.
"Hyacinths? Irises? How did you get back? What was this teleportation magic...?"
"It was Xinyuehu who teleported us out of that spatial barrier," Bai Lili said, trying to appear calm.
Everyone looked at each other.
What's going on? Heart Moon Fox? Wheat felt like she'd misheard something.
It was clearly Xin Yuehu who set up the barrier, and that giant snake was very likely a giant monster she summoned. How could it suddenly bring the elite team that entered the barrier back to the ground?
"Now is not the time to talk about these things!"
Hyacinth took two steps forward, deactivated her Starry Shadow status, and addressed her companions.
"We must evacuate all residents in the surrounding area as soon as possible! This place is extremely dangerous! There's a monster underground that's more terrifying than a bomb!"
—Before he finished speaking.
The violent tremors deep within the earth startled everyone.
The subsequent alarm about a monster attack sent the magical girls plummeting into an icy abyss.
[Attacked by a strange person!]
[Powerful, strange figures have suddenly appeared in multiple locations in the port city!]
Wait a minute, something's not right.
Ziyingshi, who was in charge of communication observation, suddenly froze during the public frequency communication and hesitated for a moment.
[...According to reports, the strange people seem to be...attacking each other?]
The hyacinth also stopped.
Was the sudden attack by the strange creatures launched by the giant beast underground? But why are they attacking each other?
What exactly is going on...?
