Chapter 496 The Power of a Blue-Rank Magical Girl
Chapter 496 The Power of a Blue-Rank Magical Girl
The sudden, massive thunderbolt was seen not only by those present, but also by the entire population of Shanghai, who stared in horror toward the direction from which the thunder came.
Although they cannot sense the presence of magic, the fear of heavenly lightning is etched into their DNA, an innate fear possessed by every living being.
Looking at the woman descending with the lightning on the screen, everyone's face showed astonishment. Clearly, they had only heard of her, but had never truly witnessed the fighting power of the strongest magical girl.
Thunder rumbled in, and silver lightning lurked within the dark clouds.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a bolt of silver lightning crashed down.
The lightning was incredibly fast, and the force it carried even caused Xiao Xiao to take two steps back. Then, a figure wearing a purple dress slowly emerged from the lightning.
"This, this is it."
In a split second, everyone watching the scene on the screen couldn't help but hold their breath.
Looking at the woman clad in lightning, almost everyone felt a surge of shock and horror.
"This is Qiu Yun, the world's top magical girl, the strongest one with the most powerful and rarest magical elements!" Exclamations of surprise rang out from all directions.
Meanwhile, at the Demon Surveillance Bureau building, watching the woman descend with divine might, several district heads and executives couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Others might not know, but when they contacted Qiu Yun, they had assessed the power she possessed. Without exaggeration, the power Qiu Yun currently wielded was nothing short of divine.
With her around, whatever that strange boy might be, they should be able to resolve the situation reasonably.
Unlike the others, Shangguan Su's brows were deeply furrowed.
She stared at the clock on the wall, lost in thought.
On the battlefield, although it sounds like a long time, from the sound of thunder to Qiu Yun's appearance, it was only a matter of two breaths. Lightly touching the ground with her toes, Qiu Yun turned slightly, her gaze first falling on Xiao Xiao. After glancing at her magic level, she said nothing. Then, her gaze moved to Shi Yao.
The grudge from the previous Shadow Disaster hadn't been resolved yet, and looking at this "magical girl senior" who had tricked him and almost killed the high-ranking officials of the Magic Bureau, Qiu Yun felt a bit conflicted.
Facing Qiu Yun's gaze, Shi Yao glared back without fear, showing no sign of being intimidated by the terrifying magic power the other party displayed. Instead, she remained somewhat indifferent.
After staring at Shiyao for a while, Qiu Yun ultimately didn't speak. She knew now wasn't the time to bring up the past. Regardless of the other party's identity, at least she was on the side of protecting reality, and that was enough.
Ultimately, Shiyao was nothing more than a magical girl who had gone astray, but the white-clad masked man beside her puzzled Qiu Yun. Seven years had passed, and this was truly the first time in those seven years that Qiu Yun had witnessed a greedy person appear in reality.
Noticing Qiu Yun's gaze, Chang Lei immediately raised his hands without saying a word. "We're on the same side, I'm here to help."
Watching the greedy man slide to his knees at lightning speed without saying a word, Qiu Yun was somewhat curious about the strong aura of a high-ranking official emanating from the other party, but he didn't say much, only whispering.
"Thank you for your help. Leave the rest to me. If you don't want to get hurt, step back a distance, and I'll be his opponent." "Don't want to get hurt? You really dare to say that."
Shiyao couldn't help but sneer, but before she could finish speaking, Chang Lei immediately came up and grabbed her.
"Forget it, let's just listen to what they say."
But Shi Yao clearly didn't want to let it go so easily. She admitted that Qiu Yun's combat power was indeed not weak, but she wasn't weak either. With the body that Tang Zijun had reshaped for her, plus that dense shadow power, her combat power was in no way inferior to that of a high-ranking cadre.
In fact, one could say that she would be considered a demigod in the mythological era.
But just as Shiyao was about to say something, a sharp whooshing sound suddenly appeared, causing everyone's eardrums to ache and forcing them to cover their ears.
Looking at Qiu Yun again, it seemed as if she had sensed something beforehand, and silver lightning suddenly flashed in her eyes.
The boy's figure floated in mid-air like a ghost. His severed hand had now become a cannon muzzle, gathering terrifying red and blue energy, and the sound of wind breaking came from it.
Sensing the destructive energy, Qiu Yun's expression changed slightly, but her hands moved quickly. She clapped her hands together, and a dazzling stream of light burst forth.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people around the world, the two beams of light were unleashed almost simultaneously, colliding with unparalleled energy! Before anyone could even discern the outcome of the energy clash, a terrifying aftershock swept out, distorting the space within a hundred meters of the point of explosion. Everything was annihilated by the energy, creating a vacuum zone.
Streaks of red and blue light emanated outwards, continuously striking the ground further away, breaking everything it touched down to its most primitive form.
Cars parked on the roadside turned into molten iron, trees in the green belts became saplings, and even the bricks of tall buildings turned into sand. Sensing the terrifying aura descending upon them, Chang Lei turned around and protected Xiao Xiao behind him, instantly carrying her a thousand meters away. Shi Yao also suddenly turned into a shadow and disappeared into nothingness.
At the very center of the battlefield, this terrifying energy burst seemed like just a greeting; the real battle had only just begun.
Bathed in lightning, Qiu Yun's every movement produced a sonic boom like thunder. She suddenly caught up with the boy's rapidly moving figure, and the lightning in her hand pierced towards his head like a sharp sword.
The boy turned his head and dodged, the lightning bolt that shot out from his hand instantly pierced through a distant building, and amidst a series of explosions, a charred hole was blasted into the center of the building.
Huge rocks fell onto the road, crushing the cars parked below.
Before he could think too much, the boy's cannon was already pressed against him. Qiu Yun grabbed the boy's wrist and pressed it down. The dark blue energy instantly blasted into the ground, turning the Starbucks into ruins.
The streets were filled with cries and screams. People nearby had no time to pay attention to the battle on the screens; all they wanted now was to survive the war.
Waves of energy rippled outwards, causing the earth to tremble and the sky to distort, making the entire city look like it was the end of the world. A fierce wind howled past, and behind a makeshift shelter made of ruined high-rise buildings, Chang Lei patted his chest. "Holy crap, that scared me to death...that scared me to death!"
Beside him, Xiao Xiao was also stunned by the terrifying battle. "This, this is... this is the battle of a Blue-level magical girl..." As a magical girl who had touched the edge of the Azure level, Xiao Xiao felt that she was already very powerful, but she had never imagined that the destructive power of a Blue-level magical girl could be so terrifying.
"Why do you think Deputy Director Qiu doesn't usually take action?" Chang Lei rolled his eyes at her and couldn't help but ask. "Blue-level magical girls are strategic weapons; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they can move mountains and fill seas."
"The magic within their bodies has undergone a qualitative change. Every move they make alters the surrounding environment. Even if you've reached the Azure level, you can easily create a tsunami, let alone Qiu Yun, a veteran Blue level cultivator."
As he spoke, Chang Lei cautiously peeked out again at the battlefield.
"But that's good too. With her taking on all the pressure, we can relax a bit. It's best if we don't get involved in this kind of battle, otherwise... Holy crap!"
Before he could finish speaking, Chang Lei blurted out a phrase from a national treasure, because he saw that shadowy figure flying straight towards the center of the battlefield. "It's...it's the Shadow Woman!?" Xiao Xiao's eyes widened, clearly having also seen the shadow.
"Has this girl always been this brave...?" Chang Lei's voice trembled slightly. What he really wanted to say was, "Has this girl always been so fearless?" Noticing the stingray's actions, Xiao Xiao seemed encouraged as well. She clenched her fist tightly, her face serious. "Okay, let's go help too!" "Hey, wait a minute! Just behave yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Chang Lei was so frightened he almost bit his tongue.
"A little commotion earlier was fine, but now that he's serious, going up to dance is practically suicide!"
