Once, Hong Kong City had only one Magic Girl.
She poured her heart and soul into protecting this city, racking her brain to eliminate dangers, even setting up a perilous barrier to cross ten years of time.
And ten years later, in this city she once guarded alone, countless Magic Girls rose up in resistance, launching an assault on the catastrophic Star Realm Giant Beast!
Inari was once quite emotional.
Ten years ago, when she and Xin Yuehu established a connection spanning ten years, the new generation of Magic Girls in Hong Kong City were just starting out.
Hai Lan Shi and Red Zircon were so naive, completely like children, becoming Magic Girls purely out of admiration for her.
And she… not only failed to fulfill her duty as a senior, but instead abandoned them alone during those vacant ten years…
And Zi Ying Shi.
She also eventually followed her footsteps to become the Magic Girl Zi Ying Shi, while she was merely deceiving her with timed emails,
and had presumptuously made a promise like “I’ll be back very soon.”
For her, crossing that rift was but an instant, but for them… it was a full ten years.
“…”
The Red Fox Girl shook her head, casting aside her thoughts, and focused her attention on the battlefield at hand.
“Watch your back!”
Inari followed closely beside Xin Yuehu, extending her magic wand and casting magic towards the five melee combatants charging forward.
A delicate magic shield from Inari empowered them, firmly blocking a Monster that lunged at Hyacinth.
It was swiftly cleaved in half by a sky-blue greatsword, but it also caused Hyacinth to slow down slightly, before quickly accelerating to catch up with Hellcat.
Su Tianqing watched.
It had to be said, the fighting prowess of the Nan sisters was indeed inherited.
The Cat Girl was invincible with her black hole cat fists; any Monster that tried to get close or was approached by her couldn’t withstand one or two punches.
And Hyacinth’s greatsword brought her magic advantage into full play—
After all, she was a righteous Magic Girl, with Star Shadow’s magic supply, so she didn’t need to be as meticulous as Hellcat; she just needed to unleash sword energy to her heart’s content.
…
The Maisui Squad’s continuous barrage played a perfect suppression role.
The Monster army’s front line was extremely compressed, the remaining Monsters were harvested by the charging melee Magic Girls, and with the close-range fire support from the Bai Lili Squad, they were swiftly cleared out!
Seeing its legion suppressed by the Magic Girls’ coordination, the Star Realm Giant Beast seemed to display its profound rage:
“###### ————!!!”
A piercing, roaring shriek.
The Monster legion’s assault intensified abruptly, charging forward recklessly into the continuous barrage, attempting to overwhelm the Maisui Squad’s firepower with their bodies.
But the continuous giant cannon beams instantly suppressed this intensified offensive, even completely halting the legion’s charge!
Xin Yuehu didn’t look back; she knew exactly what had just happened—
Magic Girl Mai Sui ☆ Star Shadow!
Ever since Dandelion allowed her to temporarily enter a simulated Star Shadow state last time, Mai Sui had been secretly learning this power.
Now, although she couldn’t stably enter Star Shadow like Hyacinth and the others, she could still temporarily transform into Star Shadow when her will was firm!
With two train cannons mounted by her side, Mai Sui faithfully played the role of a fixed artillery platform, and the most terrifying artillery platform among the Magic Girls!
“Seize the opportunity, let’s charge!”
“You don’t need to tell me!”
Hellcat shouted loudly, and Hyacinth replied grumpily.
The two accelerated their charge, immediately plunging into the area temporarily cleared by the train giant cannons, firmly pinning down the Monster’s front line!
And in the breach of the defense line torn open by the giant cannons, the molten gold eyes of the giant beast Jörmungandr could already be directly seen!
“There’s an opening! Charge!”
Inari decisively ordered, and Xin Yuehu immediately accelerated her charge, bringing Dandelion and Fenrir behind her to rush towards the rift in that defense line!
All the combined battles, all the charges and fire coverage, were for the execution of Inari’s battle plan—
—to send the only suitable candidate for the Greedy Wolf Star in the real world, the Gray Wolf Girl Fenrir, to the top of this giant beast!
Sensing Xin Yuehu’s movement, the Monster legion immediately tried to fill the void.
A dense mass of Monsters appeared in front, but a shadowy figure appeared beside the three Fox Girls.
Magic Girl, Iris.
No one knew when she had appeared here.
But everyone understood what kind of change her crucial appearance would bring to the battle!
“It’s just a gap that’s been filled.”
Iris raised her three quad-barreled magic cannons, their muzzles flashing with magic, as if murmuring to herself,
“—What I’m best at is tearing open a gap out of thin air!”
Magic cannons open fire!
Iris, twelve magic cannons, full broadside!
“Boom!!!!”
Earth-shattering full cannon fire!
The pure white cannon fire almost dimmed the sun, and the gap the Monsters tried to fill was torn open into an even larger wound, like a highway leading to the end!
“Go! Xin Yuehu! And Inari-senpai!”
“You must… take down this beast…!”
Iris said with a smile, watching them charge towards the giant serpent,
like a mortal warrior thrusting a spear at a celestial deity.
…
The Monster legion could no longer catch up to them, being left far behind.
But Inari knew very well that Jörmungandr hadn’t used its full power at all!
Especially when she saw the mocking expression in its molten gold snake eyes, the Red Fox Girl felt even more nervous than usual.
“————Watch out!!”
Without hesitation, Inari immediately waved her magic wand, extending magic towards the people beside her, changing the direction of the output of their flying magic.
An instant maneuver and change of direction, dodging a magic ray from Jörmungandr’s eyes!
The magic beam, like a magic cannon, grazed past them, so fast that even Xin Yuehu, who barely had time to react, felt a chill down her spine.
“I’ll block its attacks! You just keep going forward!!”
The Red Fox Girl rushed to the front, waving her magic wand, instantly creating a thick and dense magic shield in front of her!
“Inari Star Realm Magic, Legendary Mage Armor”
Compared to this shield, which was imbued with Star Realm Magic, the shield used by Nightingale was as fragile as a wooden door.
Facing Jörmungandr’s continuous magic cannon rays, although this shield was on the verge of collapsing, it still stubbornly held on!
Until the group charged past Jörmungandr, grazing its molten gold snake eyes as they flew into the sky, the situation seemed to undergo some subtle changes—
The Magic Girls no longer looked up at the giant beast, but instead overlooked it from above.
The giant beast snarled and looked up, firing magic cannons, trying to break through Inari’s solid defense, but it simply couldn't.
“—Go! Doggy!”
Seizing the momentary lull in the magic cannon fire, Xin Yuehu flicked her tail, activating close-range teleportation magic!
The Star Realm Giant Beast’s magic prevented her from using long-range teleportation magic, but at such a close distance, it was already enough for her to teleport the Gray Wolf to its head!
The Gray Wolf’s figure flickered onto the giant serpent’s head.
“Foolish.”
“Did you think your plan was perfect, and relaxed your guard at the last moment, favored ones of the Star Shadow?”
Jörmungandr’s mocking laughter followed.
…However,
What awaited Fenrir was not the immense magic from the Greedy Wolf Star, but a magic cannon shot that came straight from a tricky angle!
A subordinate serpent demoness!
She had been hidden in Jörmungandr’s serpent mouth from the beginning, launching a fatal blow at Fenrir at this last moment!
“Oh no! Miss Fenrir!!”
Inari’s face changed drastically in shock, and she hastily tried to cast a magic shield on the Gray Wolf, but she was a step too late!
“—Crack!”
The magic cannon pierced through the Gray Wolf’s body.
Everyone was intently watching this desperate strike and fatal counterattack on top of the giant beast’s head, and they clearly saw the Gray Wolf Girl being pierced by the ambushing serpent demoness.
Inari felt as if she had been struck by a heavy blow,
Was all the planning going to collapse because of this tricky counterattack?
“—Hahahahahahaha! No way!”
Xin Yuehu’s laughter made everyone freeze simultaneously.
“Look closely! Jörmungandr! Look at what you just hit!!”
“?!”
Fenrir’s body, which should have been pierced, disintegrated and dispersed in the air.
But the true form that then appeared was a Scorpion Demoness who laughed strangely as she scattered into magic particles!
One of the Zodiac Twelve Witches, 【Scorpio】.
And the ability she possessed was precisely 【Disguise】!
After she completed her mission and blocked the fatal blow, amidst the light of countless magic particles scattering, the light of the Mindscape World suddenly appeared!
“From the beginning, I never intended to let you see Fenrir directly.”
“She, like Dandelion, has always been in my Fox Fox’s Mindscape World!”
Xin Yuehu raised the Xin Yue Magic Wand in her hand, and Dandelion also raised her Dandelion Magic Wand, magic surging!
Enveloping the Gray Wolf Girl who had her eyes closed and was calling upon the Star Shadow!
“I didn’t even tell Inari and the others about this.”
“Only by deceiving our own people can we deceive you too! Jörmungandr!”
The Golden-haired Fox Girl’s expression became somewhat ferocious, but she still let out her characteristic wicked laugh—
“Next… Miss Dandelion!”
“Let this guy witness the great power from the distant Star Shadow!!”
The two Golden-haired Fox Girls stood side by side, raising their magic wands high!
“Star Realm Connection Magic”
“Reinforcement Magic”
Full power!
“Ka-boom!!!!”
The sky was enveloped by a sudden violent thunder.
The clear sky was torn open by a huge Star Realm Rift, but what surged from it was not violent Star Realm Magic, but power from the distant stars that had remained silent for tens of millions of years without granting favor—
Magic Girl 【Fenrir】 opened her eyes.
Her eyes seemed to be covered by the starry sky, raising her hands to guide the immense magic, which no mortal could bear, transforming it into a Star Realm Giant Hammer wrapped in lightning, and smashing it fiercely towards the roaring Star Realm Giant Beast!
“Thunder God’s Hammer”!
The 【Greedy Wolf Star】 finally gazed upon its only suitable candidate in the human world.
And descended its will!
