Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 179 Welcome back
After the ability to "separate" was released and the white mist was dispelled, the battle situation further changed in an unknown direction.

The most obvious point is that Delphinium has changed from the previous defensive side to the offensive side.It's just that this kind of "attack" is not an attack in pure hand-to-hand combat, but an attack on intelligence.

Possessing the ability to separate means that as long as a certain ability of Kite is known and understood by her, this ability will be eliminated from the battle situation in an instant.

Keeping a close eye on Kite's movements, Delphinium changed the form of the masterpiece to attack it, while constantly observing the opponent's every move, and began to look for the next target to activate the ability in her mind.

She knows exactly what she wants to do now and what her real goal is.It is impossible to seriously injure or even kill the opponent in this short period of time. The only thing she can do is to weaken the kite's ability.

Although weaving life under normal conditions cannot permanently deprive the other party of their abilities, as long as the "separation" is successfully achieved, at least in a short period of time, the other party cannot use it again.

The first time she activated the life-weaving ability to separate the opponent's Qi, as long as she could cut away a key concept the second time, the kite's combat effectiveness would be greatly weakened.At that time, let Hongsi and go to defeat each other.

And with Hong Siyu's fighting style, what is the biggest obstacle to defeating Kite?
Delphinium began to think about this.

One of the obstacles is undoubtedly the qi that has been separated. The opponent relies on his own qi to greatly weaken the lethality of Hongsi and the spell, which is undoubtedly a troublesome ability.

And another obstacle seems to be the ink state magic outfit in his hand.

Tobi called this magic costume "Hyakuwu". Judging from its use and performance, the ability displayed by this magic costume is deformation and extremely strong penetration.

Regardless of whether it is the magical barrier created by the technique, or even delphinium's own masterpiece, once it comes into contact with Kite's magic outfit, it seems to lose its magical nature and be divided by "Hyakutake" in physical form.

Although it is not clear about the true ability of this magical outfit, just from the appearance, it is already a threat enough to Hong Siyu.

Because Hongsiyu obviously does not have the ability to fight in close quarters like herself, as a magical girl whose style is ridiculed as a "fortress", her battles rely on magic formulas and magic outfits to suppress the enemy with long-range firepower.It is also because of this that once Kite chooses to turn the magical outfit into a long-range weapon and engage in a long-distance tug-of-war with Hongsiyu, Hongsiyu, who lacks defensive means, may become a target instead.

Thinking about it this way, if the opponent's only long-range attack method is separated, then the next battle will definitely lead to a situation that is beneficial to Hong Sihe.

It's just that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is a pity: Delphinium cannot directly separate the opponent's "magic outfit".

Because the essence of the magic outfit is actually the true nature of the magical girl, separating the magic outfit means directly depriving the other party of a part of the truth. The concept of "truth" is not something that I can handle now just by hearing it.

The stronger the idea of ​​separation, the more magic power will be consumed and maintained in this state.Even for a delphinium at its peak, it is extremely difficult to separate a part of the truth of a flower card with a single knife.

Therefore, if she wants to get rid of the opponent's magic outfit, the concept she cuts out must not be "magic outfit", but must be something else.

So, what is this thing supposed to be?
With this kind of thinking, Delphinium's attacking movements became much stronger. She began to abandon part of her defense, and even began to take some injuries on her own initiative, in order to force Kite to make some more risky responses.

This is not only because she doesn't have much time left, but also because she wants to force the other party to reveal more of her abilities.

Naturally, this kind of thinking cannot be perceived by Hong Si and Semii outside the field. From their perspective, the battle undoubtedly began to turn into delphinium suppressing kite.The expulsion of the white mist directly caused Kite's fighting style to change.Although his movements were still quick and skilled, they obviously became a lot more awkward.

The layer of white mist made of "Qi" and cut off by the delphinium is a natural defense against magic.In previous battles, no matter whether it was against humans or beasts, this kind of defense method was always invincible.Because of this, Kite has become accustomed to throwing away her defense against magical attacks in melee combat.

Although this does not mean that she has lost her normal ability to fight against magic power, the sudden change in her fighting habits did have a certain impact on her.It was precisely because of this that Delphinium was given the opportunity to attack.

There is not much time left for the reappeared magic costume, and delphinium must adopt more radical measures if he wants to win in the remaining time.

Kite couldn't use her qi defense ability, and delphinium also gave up her defense in order to gain combat success. The battle became extremely dangerous since then, and small wounds appeared on both of their bodies, but they ignored them.

The magic costume has only 1 minute left.

Both delphinium and kite had absolutely no energy left to speak, they were engrossed in watching each other's movements in order to react as quickly as possible.

The scissors in his hands have gradually become illusory, and the originally solid outline has become blurred, but the battle between the two is still in a stalemate.Even though the delphinium had gradually suppressed the opponent's attack, it still couldn't find a chance to win with one move.

But she didn't become anxious because of this. On the contrary, the more anxious the situation was, the calmer her consciousness became.

The weaving life in his hand is almost unable to maintain its own shape, and it is not far away from dissipating, but Delphinium still cannot observe any opportunity that can determine the outcome.

If she knew the exact ability of the opponent's magic outfit, then delphinium might be able to directly take some action against "Hyakuwu", but unfortunately, just because Kite is aggressive does not mean that she is a fool. When her qi is separated, she He never talked about his abilities.

Obviously, she also knew that Delphinium's magic outfit had a certain time limit, and when the 5-minute time limit expired, the enemies in front of her would no longer pose a threat.So instead of anxiously resolving the battle, Tobi now seems to be enjoying the battle.

The time limit for reappearance is only half a minute left.

The rhythm of the weapon fight became faster and faster, Delphinium began to press further, trying to find the opponent's flaws, but although Kite had already fallen into a passive position, she still guarded against death, and would rather suffer some minor injuries than expose it other information.

If it weren't for the fact that the nature of the battle between the two had changed, I'm afraid no one would have known that they were not fighting to the death, but were fighting a unique intelligence war.

When the battle entered the last 20 seconds, Kite even started to defend like a tortoise shell. She only pursued no mistakes and completely gave up attacking.

"Is this the so-called way to win head-on?" Delphinium had to speak again, trying to provoke with words, "Win by delaying time?"

"Soldiers have art of war, and war has strategy."

Kite raised the corners of her mouth slightly amidst the fierce attack: "Endurance is also an indispensable part of the competition, and it is not shameful to beat the opponent in endurance."

"Sophistry." Delphinium pointed out the essence of the other party's words expressionlessly.

"The truth is, as long as I win with a clear conscience, that's enough."

Yuanpo smiled indifferently: "No matter how nice the words are, victory is the most important thing. When there is a possibility of winning, no matter how embarrassing it is to win, you must seize the opportunity!"

After saying this, she continued to adopt a defensive posture, as if she was going to drag it to the end.

With only ten seconds left in the clock, Delphinium gave up all means outside the market, and started the last fight, mobilizing [-]% of her energy, and began to attack with all her strength.

Blades, daggers, gloves, she kept using different forms of magic clothes, and at the same time gradually narrowed the distance between the two, until finally, the two had enough to clearly see each other's eyes.

Kite's double pupils are like a blazing fire, burning with self-confidence; Delphinium's eyes are like a calm lake, containing the unknown.

With only five seconds left, she untied the masterpiece of silk thread in her hand, and interweaved it into a form that had never been shown before under the joint gaze of the two, a sickle extending from behind the kite.

"Masterpiece, the fifth, Harpa of Harvest."

Taking advantage of the deformation characteristics of the silk thread itself and bypassing the laws of human body movement, the delphinium sent the blade of the sickle to the back of the kite's neck, and was able to cut the opponent's back neck almost by a hair's breadth.

At such a distance, as long as she retracted the sickle slightly, she could complete this attack and remove its head.

And this was the first time and the last time she would checkmate her opponent in this close combat.

She didn't expect to be able to kill the opponent with such an attack, but only by giving such a huge pressure, could she possibly see the true magic ability of the kite.

In the last five seconds of the reappearance of the magic costume, Delphinium moved the sickle in his hand.

Under her gaze, Yuan's expression changed from astonishment and bewilderment to relief and relief.Then, as if admitting defeat, she raised the ink-like metal in her hand and poured magic power into it.

"Hyakutake."

As he shouted, the sickle in delphinium's hand became extremely solid at that moment, and it was difficult to penetrate after cutting it above the neck of the kite.As if it had touched something harder than a blade, the sickle was cut from the side.

This attack, which could be called a sure-fire attack, was easily blocked by Kite's cry.

It seemed that she had won the game, but both of them knew that from this moment on, Kite had already lost the intelligence battle.

Because she exposed the ability of her magic costume.

The delphinium's masterpiece, the sickle, also came from its own magic outfit, and after personal interweaving and processing, it endowed it with a lethality far beyond ordinary magic formulas.In theory, as long as the attack works, there is nothing that cannot be cut.

To make this attack ineffective, it needs to use stronger magic power to counteract, and disperse the blade of the sickle from the level of magic power to solve this attack.

But obviously, under the pressure of such an urgent decision, what Kite adopted was not the release of magic power, which she was not good at, but the magic outfit ability she was most familiar with.

And the final effect of this ability is as if the sickle in delphinium's hand turned into iron, losing all the properties endowed by magic power at the moment it hit the kite.

Such a scene will only appear when the ordinary iron cuts into the magical creation, as if it touched some hard and smooth object, and was blocked without causing any damage.

Then, it is not difficult to guess what the kite did.

In the last two seconds of the reappearance of the magic costume, Delphinium raised the scissors in her hand, completed the cutting action in one second, and announced her understanding of the ability of the kite in the last moment.

- "Demagnetize, physicalize."

To ensure the manifesto is accurate, she described the ability from both perspectives.Then, he felt a huge amount of magic power coming from the scissors that were about to dissipate, and almost took away most of the magic power in his body.

click.

With a light crisp sound, the scissors in delphinium's hand and the ink-like metal in kite's hand collapsed together.

The scissors, which had reached the reappearance time limit, completed its mission at the last moment.

Hongsiyu cannot reproduce the things in memory repeatedly and continuously. After each recurrence, the records of the things in "Yi Hai Bai Ji" will be completely consumed, and it will take a long time to replenish.

For magic spells, Hongsi and can make up for this shortcoming by recording a large number of the same spells, but for a unique and unique thing like magic clothes, this method is obviously not universal enough.

This also means that the battle has come to an end here. Delphinium's successful declaration of the opponent's magic outfit almost means victory; failure of the declaration means that the two have lost their chance of victory.

As for the result, it was already clear when she saw the magic outfit in Tobi's hand - she succeeded.

The magic costume that was originally in the form of a mass of liquid metal has lost its metallic luster, and has completely turned into a black, ink-like mass of magic power.

This means that no matter which angle Delphinium declared is correct, at least she has successfully separated the ability of the kite magic suit: from now on, no matter how the magic suit changes shape, it is only changing the shape of the magic power. There is no such terrifying penetration and lethality as before.

Even if the opponent still has some means to further liberate the ability of the magic suit, the disappearance of this concept is irreparable, and the concept as the core ability of the magic suit is removed, even if it is strengthened, it is hard to say how effective it is.

As for how long this state will be maintained - at least judging from the delphinium's own remaining mana consumption, it will not be a problem to maintain it for a few more hours.

And a few hours is enough for Hongsi to resolve this battle.

The two just looked at each other quietly, and neither of them spoke for a while.Delphinium's face was calm, but her slightly trembling fingers proved that she was not without stress; although Kite was separated from her magic outfit, her face was more satisfied after a fierce battle than the annoyance of failure.

"I lost." She spread her hands with a smile on her face, "You are right, my magic costume ability is 'physicalization'. It is also the core ability of magic costume. Without it, it is difficult for me to use the current It's time to defeat that junior over there."

"'Current state' refers to the state of not using Wonderland and further abilities, isn't it?"

Delphinium slowly exhaled: "In other words, you actually have reservations."

"As I said, I don't want to use my Wonderland."

Yuan shook her head: "Although my wonderland has extremely strong restrictive rules for everyone in the range, it actually has an overwhelming advantage over me. If you expand the wonderland and use the rules, this kind of victory is absolutely impossible." Fun. If you say you don’t want to use it, then you don’t need it. As for the further things, there is no need to talk about it. I hate bullying battles.”

"You seem confident in your other abilities as well."

Delphinium raised her eyebrows: "It's better to say, I've never seen anyone who regards 'using all their strength' as ​​'bullying the weak'."

"The full power of being a martial artist is different from the full power of being a magical girl."

Kite hands on hips: "A game without rules is no fun, a battle without enemies is meaningless, enjoy every valuable battle in life, respect every opponent who can bring me fun in the rules, this is my Life credo."

——"This kind of creed will only lead me to go back with you and be scolded by the leader!"

Seeing that these two people were almost sympathetic to each other, Semiy on the side shouted quite brokenly: "You should hurry up to unfold the wonderland, and hurry up to liberate! We didn't come here to play house, but the source of the beast Very important stuff!"

"Shut up, Sammy, don't say such spoiled things while I'm enjoying the aftermath of the war."

Yuan squinted at it dissatisfied: "I finally enjoyed a hearty battle, and I don't want to continue thinking about the troublesome things the leader explained."

"So you plan to go back like this?"

Delphinium felt a little unreal with the other party's easy-talking attitude, so she couldn't help asking for confirmation: "It's obvious that you haven't used all your abilities yet?"

"If you lose, you lose. I don't like making excuses."

Yuan waved her hand: "However, I didn't tell you to go back like this?"

"What?" Delphinium and Sammy beside him made a puzzled voice.

"Please, I finally got out of the penance and returned to the human city. I also want to enjoy modern life."

Yuan looked at the person and the goblin who made the sound: "I just came to Fangting City this morning, let me go back to the wasteland in the afternoon? Penance is not so hard, I want to have fun here for a few days!"

"As for the battle, it's not the only one."

She crossed her hands and stuffed them into the wide sleeves of her Taoist robe: "It's rare to find such a good opponent. I will definitely have to fight with you a few more times. Don't mind me bothering you when the time comes."

"...You mean, it doesn't count this time, and we will compare next time." Delphinium analyzed the meaning of the other party's words with some hesitation: "What if I lose next time?"

"Then I will kidnap you and the source of the beast."

Yuan smiled heartily and said, "I'm really interested in you now, and I look forward to your strength after the injury is cured. If you can join the claw marks, then we will definitely have a lot of common topics."

"No matter how many times you win, it doesn't count, but as long as you lose once, you are really lost..."

Delphinium sighed helplessly: "I remember you were still saying things like 'I won't bully the weak' just now."

"Hmph, all principles are ultimately based on my preferences and mood."

Yuan straightened her tattered Taoist robe, rolled up her sleeves, and rolled up her hem: "If you want me to give up completely, just defeat me who really tried my best. At that time, I will admit that the mission has failed, and then go obediently." Human."

After saying this, she stretched out her hand, grabbed Semi, who seemed to be still dissatisfied, and waved to the slightly tired Delphinium: "Let's go, next time I will go directly to the Bureau of Different Strategies to find someone to contact you."

After saying this, the black magic power enveloped her figure, and the figure of one person and one goblin turned into an afterimage, and disappeared from the front of Delphinium and Hong Siyu.

The two magical girls were left standing in place, looking at the empty sky, wondering what they were thinking for a while.

Delphinium thought about what Yuan said before leaving, and finally had to admit that she, or even Fangting City, was unable to drive away this uninvited guest, and she seemed to have to accept that such an "enemy" existed here.

Fortunately, the other party doesn't seem to be the character of Moss who can't agree with ordinary people. He said that he wants to play here, but it is probably just for fun-if he doesn't eat the overlord's meal.

After figuring this out, she couldn't help but sighed helplessly, and turned her head to Hong Siyu, wanting to ask about the specific situation here.

It's just that she just turned her head when she was greeted with a hug.

——"I'm back, senior."

Hong Siyu had already flown over from behind, hugged the delphinium, and put his chin against the delphinium's forehead.And even if the delphinium wanted to raise her head, she didn't look down at all, just to cover up her slightly heated face after making this movement.

Feeling this somewhat long-lost hug, Delphinium opened her mouth slightly, and the question she was going to ask was replaced by another sentence at this moment, and when she uttered it, there was only a simple response:

"Ah, welcome back."

It wasn't just Hong Siyu who came back, but also the magical girl who had retired, but now returned to this world again.

　Then resume normal update.
