Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 121 Spider

The sudden attack interrupted the man's actions, and also blocked his unspoken words of ridicule.

He stared at the magic dagger protruding from his chest, his eyes widened, and he said "ho ho", but he couldn't utter a word, blood spilled from his throat, which made him cough uncontrollably.

"Dengzhan, go and see how the crippled beast is doing, and restrain it if possible. First, see if there are any survivors among those tumors."

Pulling out the dagger that pierced the enemy's back, Delphinium kicked him to the ground mercilessly, bound the man with magic silk threads, and then directly hit several Favor runes on the man's body, forming a Forbidden Magic: "Let me interrogate this guy."

"Okay." Dengzhan nodded, driving the magic power to fly into the air, and charged directly at the chrysalis in the sky.

Not long after, the roar of the remnant beast and the explosion of magic power mingled together. Obviously, a battle was also launched in the sky.

Delphinium looked up at the battle situation above, then lowered her head, looking at the man bound by her on the ground with extremely cold eyes: "Name, identity, purpose."

"Ho... ho..." However, the man failed to answer, only the blood in his throat was still gushing out, he opened his mouth wide, his eyes were wide open, he was out of breath, and he was about to die up.

He looked quite miserable, but Delphinium didn't have the slightest sympathy or empathy for him, just looked at him quietly.

Since entering this lair, everything she has seen and known points to the same fact—that is, the man in front of her is a complete villain.Such people deserve no sympathy.

She just stared at the man on the ground without saying a word.

Tens of seconds later, looking at the man who still looked like he was dying but still seemed to be struggling for survival, Delphinium asked again: "Have you played enough?"

This sentence seemed to be a signal. After the man on the ground stared at her for a while, he finally stopped making unclear noises and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "You are smarter than her, Miss."

"This is the first time I've heard of a human being who can defeat a Rai-class magical girl, but my intuition tells me that such a person shouldn't be pierced through the heart and become what he is now."

Delphinium said coldly: "Now, I give you two choices, tell me where the missing magical girl is, and your plan, you can get a chance to commit suicide or be executed by me with one blow; or refuse to answer my question, Magic Kingdom There are plenty of ways to make you speak, but you may not be able to have a relatively safe way to die."

The man relaxed his staring eyes, stared at the delphinium in silence for a long time, and after a slight pause, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a pity, I don't like leggings."

Delphinium was slightly taken aback by his words, and after a while, she gradually realized what he was talking about, and then looked down at her skirt.

"You don't seem to want a peaceful death?"

Delphinium asked a question, then crouched down holding her skirt.The magic thread condensed into a dagger in her hand. She stretched out the dagger and pointed it at the man's eyes: "Or do you want me to do something more inhumane, so that you are willing to answer my question?"

"I don't want to waste time with scum, so I don't want to hear unnecessary nonsense from you. Tell me your choice in three seconds, or this dagger will poke your eyes out."

"one."

"two."

"I said." The man tried to turn his head to the side, but the magic thread had firmly fixed his body, preventing him from moving at all. "You are so merciless. Much colder."

Chi!
"what!"

The dagger slashed across the man's eye socket, directly cutting open his lower eyelid, causing him to scream on the spot.

"Your eyes were saved, but your nonsense made you suffer more."

Delphinium took away the dagger: "Now, name, identity, and purpose."

The man gasped for a long time before opening his mouth weakly: "Spider, Ember Guard, collect nourishment."

"Explain these words in your mouth, don't tell me riddles." Delphinium narrowed her eyes.

"You don't know?" Hearing delphinium's words, the man was slightly taken aback, then his eyes wandered on her face, showing a somewhat inexplicable smile, "Interesting, it's really like that Lei class called you The code name is the same, and the person is like the bird in the cage."

Delphinium raised his dagger and slashed the corner of his mouth.

"Yeah!" The man couldn't help but hum again.

"Are you using my code name to provoke me, are you trying to provoke me?"

Throwing the dagger in his hand aside, the magic thread condensed into a new dagger, delphinium slightly raised his voice: "I don't really mind if you continue to do this, but time is limited, I hope you don't talk so much nonsense, otherwise the interrogation At the end of the day, I'm afraid my promise has become empty talk."

"...Spider, that's my code name."

Seeing that Delphinium was completely unmoved by his provocation, the man finally said honestly: "My identity is the Ember Guard in front of the palace, so I will have my own code name."

"Jinguard in front of the palace? Is this your status class?" Delphinium asked indifferently.

"The Jin army in front of the court, the Jin guards in front of the palace, and the Jin attendants in front of the king"

The man breathed out three words: "This is not a secret, especially for your investigation institute, it should already be information on the table."

The delphinium raised the dagger without saying a word, and the man shrank his head: "I know! Let me tell you! Don't do it!"

Seeing Delphinium put down his hand again, he breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to explain: "The three identities are arranged from low to high, the bottom one is the Jin Army, the second is the Jin Guard, and the higher level is the Jin Attendant."

"Jin Army in front of the court is the most common member. It doesn't have its own code name, only a number. For example, among my subordinates, the Jin Army who fights full-time, its prefix is ​​Bingzhu, and adding the number, it is Bingzhuyi, Bingzhu two……"

"And the Ember Guards in front of the palace can get their own code name, and at the same time, serve as middle-level personnel, governing a part of the Ember Army."

"Wangqian Jinshi is the person closest to the core of power, and is also synonymous with powerful power. Often, his subordinates control an entire area."

"A whole area?"

What his words made delphinium realize, and continued to ask: "Is the southern part of Donghua Prefecture considered a region?"

"Forget it, of course it does." The man code-named Spider smiled, "But I don't know exactly how many districts there are. This is not something we, the Ember Guard, can know."

"Then who is the leader of Black Ember Dawn in this area?" Delphinium stared into his eyes.

"I don't know." Spider said with a smile.

A cold light flashed, and another wound appeared on his abdomen.

"what!"

He cried out again, but this time he didn't tell the truth like before, but said with cold sweat, "I... can't tell."

"Unable to speak?"

Delphinium frowned slightly, "Maybe I should stab some more painful places next time, so help you recall?"

"It's not... memories, it's me... I can't say it, I can't do it."

The spider spoke intermittently, blushing, "I can't tell the magical girl his name, this is his order, and I can't disobey it."

"You will die if you disobey the orders of your superiors, or you will die if you refuse to answer my questions here. Which one do you think is better?"

Delphinium asked calmly: "Perhaps you can describe the price of disobeying your orders. I will try to do more than your superiors."

"I, I said it... we can't disobey our superiors."

The spider continued to pant and said, "Like a low-level beast cannot defy a high-level beast, this is the class of life, a ladder that cannot be surpassed."

"You mean to say that your superior's orders to you are absolute and have nothing to do with your will?"

Delphinium raised her eyebrows: "Like a beast? Do you really think of yourself as a beast?"

"What? The power of beasts is the ladder of our progress. What's wrong with climbing the road of power that belongs to humans?"

After the pain, the spider's voice gradually calmed down: "You magical girls won't understand."

"I don't intend to understand the mind of the monster, I just want to know what you have done."

Delphinium was unmoved: "Go ahead and explain your purpose clearly. What exactly is 'gathering nourishment'?"

"That is, looking for food for the beast."

The spider aimed its sights at the sky above, and looked at the spider beast who was fighting with the lamp and was obviously at a disadvantage, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes: "Beasts can devour all life with magic power, even the most dull ordinary people, There is a weak magical power in their bodies, although it is better than nothing, but it can add up to a lot."

"And if you want to improve efficiency, then you should find food with stronger magic power, such as other beasts, such as the magic source of goblins, such as..."

Having said that, he fixed his eyes on Delphinium's neckline, looked at the heart gem that appeared and disappeared on her neck, swallowed a mouthful and said, "Your source of magic power."

Delphinium was silent for a long time.

She stared at the spider for a long time before she spoke again: "You are really a bunch of beasts."

What the spiders said is not difficult to understand. In other words, the "nutrient" they seek is essentially all life with magical powers.Whether it is humans, elves, magical girls, or cannibalism with other beasts, it is an existing fact.

"This is the reality of this world."

The spider said indifferently: "If you don't have the strength to protect yourself, you will be swallowed one day."

"You were responsible for the disappearance of the magical girl in Donghua Prefecture in the past two years?"

Delphinium tightly clenched the dagger in her hand: "Where are the investigation teams that came to Bo'an City before? Where are they?"

"It's all us? Who knows, but what happened in Bai'an City, I should have done it."

The spider stared blankly at the sky, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "It's just a pity, I couldn't catch those newcomer magical girls here. You came just after I trapped that obstructive Lei, or wait until I kill you!" Without her, all the heart jewels of this city are mine."

"You won't have that chance again."

Delphinium said coldly: "Tell me where the investigation team is, and I will give you a happy ending."

"Investigation team? Ah, you're still talking about those stupid magical girls who came to question me a few days ago."

The spider's eyes wandered, and gradually focused on the delphinium's face: "You have been asking me about their whereabouts from the very beginning. Why? Do you really care so much about your colleagues in the Investigation Institute? Cornflowers?"

The delphinium breathed slightly.

Although his words were inquiries, they were not asking delphiniums. When he announced the code name "Cornflower", he used an extremely positive tone.

Dengzhan has called Delphinium before, so he has reason to know the code name "Delphinium".But the code name Cornflower was never mentioned in front of this man.

It is possible that the Cattail Squad once mentioned this code name, but why, what reason do they have to mention themselves in front of this man?

"You seem to know me?"

Delphinium lowered her voice, and raised her dagger again: "Very well, now you have one more thing to explain, and I hope the answer to this question can satisfy me."

"I know you, it's not surprising, little lady, you seem to have a little misunderstanding about your popularity."

Spider raised his eyes slightly: "But I'm surprised that the Investigation Institute actually asked you to investigate this matter, and you came to the door so quickly. This is indeed not what I expected."

"I'll say it again, don't talk nonsense." Delphinium put the dagger on his jaw.

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm telling the truth."

The spider suddenly looked at the delphinium and looked into her eyes seriously: "I just want to tell you that you were not my prey in the first place."

Delphinium looked at him without hesitation, but a raging fire was burning in her cold eyes, as if she wanted to burn the person in front of her.

She didn't speak anymore, but used the dagger upwards.

But this time, the dagger failed to penetrate the spider's skin.

"...Look, I said it, I'm not talking nonsense."

The spider's pale face was a little more bloody due to blood loss. He grinned again, but this time it was a little cold: "It's because you talk too much nonsense, little miss."

"—Senior Delphinium!"

The next moment, the exclamation of the lamp came from high in the sky.

Almost at the same time as hearing these two voices, Delphinium felt a sense of crisis on his back, and immediately let go of the dagger in his hand, and the magic outfit instantly turned into a square protective shell, covering himself completely protected in it.

Immediately afterwards, purple-black magic power surged from the sky, and threads of flesh and blood emerged from nowhere and descended from the sky, tightly wrapping the protective shell of the delphinium's magic outfit.

A white spider several meters high hung from the air with silk threads, and slowly landed beside the spider, then lifted its own jointed limbs, and placed the spider on its back.

The spider sat on the back of the white spider, looked up at the sky again, and murmured: "Okay, your mission is completed."

As his words fell, the chrysalis-level remnant beast that was hanging on the huge spider web and was fighting with the lamp suddenly wailed, and its already riddled body instantly collapsed and fell straight into it in the woven network.

The man code-named Spider straightened up from the white spider's back, and stretched out his hand to grab his neck, but the forbidden magic formula suddenly flicked his hand away, making him look a bit hesitant.

It's just that these little unhappiness were quickly put aside by him, and he looked at the delphinium trapped in the magic costume in front of him, and said again:

"You see, I really didn't talk nonsense. As I said, the orders of high-level beasts are absolute for low-level beasts."

These words gave delphinium a meal when he was planning to change the form of the magic costume again and cut the meat net around him.

"A high-level beast..." Realizing something, she raised her head and looked at the spider. "I just want to say, why this nest doesn't look like a pupa's nest at all from the beginning."

"Your instincts are really sharp."

The spider sitting on the back of the white spider lightly stroked the remnant beast under it: "Pupus-level remnant beasts can order the gnats and eggs gathered in their nests, so why can't the pupa itself be ordered?"

As if in response to his words, the spider beast under him raised its head and let out another cry high into the sky.Then, the huge spider that had landed on the web trembled all over, and after a burst of convulsions, it was completely motionless.

"That beast is not the culprit of this incident at all, it is just a tool."

The delphinium looked up, then lowered its head, stared at the spider and said, "You just controlled it, borrowed its nest, and turned its nest into a tool for hunting."

Spider smiled.

"You keep asking me, where are those stupid magical girls?"

He opened his mouth and twisted his hand violently. Amidst the neighing of the white spider beast, he pulled out a piece of purple-black flesh from its back.

The purple-black piece of flesh was still beating after it broke away from the beast. The spider looked at the piece of flesh with fascination, and then slowly pressed it against his chest:

"The answer is up to you to witness."

"This is the time to eradicate traitors and rebels."
