Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 117 Hall
Almost at the same time that the delphinium found the beast, the beast that was eating also spotted the delphinium.

The two looked at each other briefly, and Remnant Beast suddenly dropped the corpse in his hand, jumped up from the desk, and jumped straight to the delphinium at the door.

"Roar!"

Delphinium's face was slightly cold, and the magic wand appeared between the opening and closing of the palms, and at the same time as the remnant beast rushed in front of her, it slammed hard at its head.

when!boom!
With force from the wand, the remnant beast hit the ground heavily.

The knocked down remnant beast immediately struggled to get up, and kept roaring in protest, but Delphinium didn't give it a chance to regain its strength, turned its magic wand to aim at its head, and fired the magic beam continuously, directly hitting its head It became a pool of ashes.

After dealing with the crippled beast, she quickly flew to the corpse that had been left behind, examined the corpse, and found that this unfortunate employee of the Different Strategy Bureau had indeed lost his life.

This remnant beast that appeared in the office was not considered powerful, probably only at the level of an egg, but to ordinary people, even magicians, it was a monster like a natural disaster, so it was no wonder that it could cause such a miserable scene.

Except for the employee who still had a complete body, the other victims couldn't even put together a complete body, which shows what atrocities the remnant beast has committed.

After searching in the office, but couldn't find any useful information, delphinium had no choice but to go back to the door, and opened her palm to the limbs of the remnant beast on the ground, trying to recover the echo of the remnant beast.

However, following delphinium's attempt, the remains of the beast dissipated into a plume of black smoke under her gaze, leaving nothing behind.

It is a remnant beast that does not echo.

It took Delphinium a few seconds to bring herself to realize this fact, but even seeing it with her own eyes, she still couldn't believe it was real.

Based on her past knowledge and cognition, such a beast could not exist.

A remnant beast without echoes can almost be equivalent to having no source of magic power of its own, and as a purely magical creature, a remnant beast without a source of magic power is fundamentally impossible to survive.

The source of magic power is to remnant beasts, which is equivalent to the heart to human beings.Human beings who have lost their hearts cannot maintain their lives, and how can remnant beasts without a source of magic power exist?What's more, it can still hunt and fight with itself like it did just now?

Delphinium could not understand.

However, after a brief moment of daze, she quickly put this emotion behind her.Because she knew that now was not the time to think about this issue.

She is very clear about what her current task is. Compared with studying why this crippled beast does not resonate, investigating the status quo of the Bureau of Different Strategies is the first priority.

For example, why did the Bureau of Different Strategies not respond when encountering an attack by a remnant beast?Even if you can't win by fighting, you can escape or take refuge, and you should notify the local magical girl to come and crusade against the beast.

This question didn't bother Delphinium for long, because when she took out her mobile phone and tried to ask the team in Bai'an City, the symbols displayed on the top of the screen gave the answer.

--【no signal】.

Delphinium was not surprised, or rather relieved, because she had a better understanding of the situation: the signal here was cut off, and the message could not be transmitted.

She didn't know if the Different Policy Bureau of Bai'an City had any special means of contacting the outside world, but presumably there was none.

That is to say, from the moment it was attacked, the headquarters of the Different Strategy Bureau, which was located underground and was originally equivalent to a security fortress, became a huge airtight cage, locking the employees and beasts of the Different Strategy Bureau in together.

What is the current situation of the Different Policy Bureau of Bai'an City?
Except for this office where someone was murdered, where did the other employees go?

How many are still alive?Are there any other beasts here?
Delphinium she needs to find out these problems first.

Putting away the wand in his hand, laying the dead employee of the Different Policy Bureau flat on the ground, closing his eyes, Delphinium left the office.She continued to search the first floor of the Different Policy Bureau, but no matter how she searched, she couldn't find a room with people.

The sound of her footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, and the bright light shone directly on the tiles on the ground, reflecting white dots one by one.These white dots are connected into a line, as if leading to the endless other side, as if the space here has also become a maze without end.

In the underground space that does not distinguish between day and night, no one can distinguish between day and night, and the surrounding silence seems to be able to swallow time.

Delphinium began to feel that the atmosphere here was a little dull, even though the surrounding environment was bright and bright, it was difficult to erase the ubiquitous sense of disobedience.Most of the offices were just like the one she saw when she came, with the doors wide open and various furnishings scattered around, except for any living things.

This is very wrong.

Delphinium thought to himself.

Even if it was attacked by remnant beasts, there was no reason for the Bureau of Different Strategies to become as weird as it is now.

She could understand why there was no one here. After all, most of them would choose to flee in the face of the attack of the remnant beasts. In this regard, there was no difference between the employees of the Different Strategy Bureau and the real ordinary people.

However, if things were really that simple, the Bureau of Different Strategies shouldn't be presenting the current scene.

Its biggest violations are two: the building is too well preserved, and there are not enough corpses.

It wasn't that Delphinium deliberately cursed the Bureau of Different Strategies, but from the fact that the beast she solved should have been wreaking havoc in the Bureau of Different Strategies for a long time.

The office where Remnant Beast was located was hundreds of meters away from the lobby of the Different Policy Bureau. It was impossible for Remnant Beast not to destroy and kill at such a long distance.

As a kind of life that is naturally full of tyrannical instincts, the action logic of a crippled beast is often to kill if there is any living thing, and destroy everything around it if there is no living thing.

Even the remnant beasts that appeared in Fangting City before, transformed by the evil believers of the black ember and dawn, can't restrain the instinct of the remnant beasts, and the logic of action will be completely remnant.

This kind of life has no reason to advance hundreds of meters, and can completely suppress its instincts without causing any damage.

Maybe it's because the crippled beast is really special?

Delphinium guessed so, but she still couldn't convince herself.

If the situation at the beginning was just out of delphinium's expectation, then the current situation has been out of her imagination, and the whole picture has become confusing.

Carrying many doubts and puzzles, but these puzzles were not answered in the investigation, Delphinium finally walked out of the office area and returned to the lobby on the first floor of the Bureau of Different Strategies.

Just like when she came, the hall was still empty, and rows of lights were inlaid on the huge spherical roof. The incandescent lights were far brighter than the corridors in the office area.

Looking at the glass gates extending in all directions around the hall, and imagining the usual prosperous scene here, Delphinium paused slightly, then shook his head.

She decided to go to other floors to have a look.

After walking into the elevator next to the lobby, she stood in the elevator car and observed for a while, and she found that the elevator here only went down floors.The top floor is [-1F], and the other floors go down in turn.Considering that this is an underground building, there is no problem with this arrangement, Delphinium didn't think too much, and clicked the [-2F] button.

Not long after, the door of the elevator closed slowly, and a breeze blew in the cabin. Amidst bursts of roaring sounds, the elevator descended slowly and stopped after a while, displaying the message [-2F].

There was no accident during this period, but delphinium was a little surprised.

Staring blankly at the slowly opening of the elevator door, Delphinium walked out of the elevator door and looked at the so-called negative second floor, trying to observe the general outline at the first time.

However, when she saw the surrounding furnishings clearly, the scene in front of her made her feel a buzzing in her brain.

Because she didn't see any underground second floor.In front of her eyes was still the bright lobby on the first basement floor.

Is the elevator not moving?
With such doubts in mind, Delphinium walked back into the elevator car and looked at the screen above, but the screen that said [-2F] in his memory had changed, showing [-1F].

Did you press the wrong button?I read it wrong?
Delphinium looked up, trying to find the button in her memory, and when she did, she realized how naive her previous thinking was.

In fact, let alone the [-2F] button before, she couldn't even find any other numbers.

【-1F】

【-1F】

【-1F】

【-1F】

【-1F】

All the buttons I saw in my eyes had the same number written on them.

A series of minus-first-floor buttons densely covered the control panel, and only this one number could be found in the entire elevator car, as if silently laughing at delphiniums.

Standing in place, looking at the control panel for a short while, Delphinium didn't say anything, moved her legs, jumped out of the elevator room, and ran towards the entrance of the stairs beside her.

With great strength, he opened the stairway door and threw it aside, and what he saw was a stairwell that could lead to the upper floor and the lower floor at the same time.Delphinium didn't think much, and ran directly downstairs. When she reached the platform on the next floor, she yanked open the door of the stairway and rushed into the space outside the door.

——It is the hall that catches the eye.

Unchanged, it belongs to the lobby on the first floor of the Bureau of Different Strategies.

The empty hall, the blazing lights, the humming electric sound, everything was exactly the same as the space when she came, without any changes.

Delphinium remained expressionless and continued to run.

This time, the target she was running for was the door of the hall—that is, the glass gate when she came.

After passing through the gate, she still saw the white passage she had come in, as if she had finally come to a brand new space, but Delphinium's mood did not improve at all, and she still ran forward with a blank expression.

She already had a faint feeling that things would not be that simple.

In fact, this is indeed the case. When she returned to the space where she should have come, what she saw was not what she expected.

What she saw was the same glass gate.

A sandblasted glass door that reveals the light behind the haze, but blocks the view behind the door.It was exactly the same as the one she saw when she came.

Delphinium stared at it for a while, without showing any panic, and just kept going.After passing through the glass gate, she raised her head and looked at the space behind the gate again.

Of course, this time, what she saw did not surprise her anymore.

Here, it is still the lobby of the Bureau of Different Strategies.
