My wife is a magical girl, how can I be the villain?

"Also, I heard a Void Beast speaking in the illusion, the one designated as number 6... Although he pretended very well, he still let slip a sentence."

Xingyu recalled that in the room in the illusion, the other person asked a question in a low voice with doubt. At the time, she thought it was an illusion and subconsciously replied.

She realized something was wrong when she looked back, but because she was in an illusion, her memory was still a bit hazy after leaving, and with the continuous battles, she forgot about it for a moment.

Upon hearing Xingyu's words, Fang Chan looked incredulous and subconsciously asked, "Could it be that the illusion is affecting your consciousness?" Her tone was not a question, but a statement.

"How could a Void Beast possibly speak, especially a humanoid Void Beast? It doesn't even have a mouth!"

Wushao also looked at Xingyu hesitantly. Of course, she didn't think her teammate was talking nonsense, but the illusion was ever-changing, and it was even impossible to say who she was or where she was... Whether Xingyu's words were credible was questionable.

"I can't be sure either... Before escaping the illusion, I don't even remember falling into the trap while chasing Number 6."

Hoshino didn't mention that the other party's behavior was a bit strange, and that at the end, the other party seemed to have helped her cast her [Mystic Code], although she still didn't quite believe that the other party was helping her.

Yes! Number 6 must have been working with the Newtypes to lure her into the trap... That's what she reported to her teammates and the Anti-Demon Department.

"In any case, you should still investigate this matter. Keep it in mind. I've always felt that these humanoid virtual beasts in Fangzhou City are quite different from those recorded in the files."

"They seem far too intelligent... Could they be like the magicians who descended from the void, a special species that came from nowhere?"

Xingyu proposed a hypothesis, and Wushao and Fangchan pondered it, stroking their chins. After a while, Wushao said:

"It is indeed possible, but we know nothing about the Void, and other cities are unwilling to share this information with us... We may have to take the risk of infiltrating the Voidquake Lands on our own to gather intelligence."

Wu Shao spread her hands helplessly, and Fang Chan looked at the magical girl with a mixture of apology and bitterness. Fangzhou City had not received enough preferential treatment from the Magic Department in its cooperation with other cities.

On the one hand, they lack sufficient resources, and on the other hand, they are wary of Fangzhou City's growth, which will attract more resources and talent.

The power struggles between adults are so boring and annoying...

"If you need anything, just ask us. The Ministry of Demons will provide logistical support."

After exchanging pleasantries, Xingyu didn't care whether the other party's promise was valid or not. Today's needs had been explained, and he could come back in the afternoon to receive the investigation results.

Xingyu and Wushao bid farewell to Fang Chan and left the minister's office. The two still had to go to other departments of the Anti-Demon Department to visit the wizards who were injured or killed yesterday. Due to the sudden situation, two squads were hit by the first wave of attack during the battle, with twelve people seriously injured and two dead.

"You'd better be extremely careful when dealing with the Void Beasts. It's best to have several wizards ready with shields and agility spells at all times. If you don't dodge a Void Beast's attack, at best you'll end up like this, at worst..."

Xingyu stood in the Demon Extermination Training Base, looking at the injured person inside the light shield on the bed, her brows furrowing with heartache.

Wushao was already kneeling on the ground, casting a healing spell to regenerate flesh and blood for the wizard whose hands and feet had been severed. Wushao's combat ability was not even as good as that of Qiang Hongbadao, who had just advanced to the third page.

But when it comes to healing and amplification magic, Wushao's understanding of spells is unparalleled. She initially chose to develop her magic towards the nature side, and a large portion of the spells in Wushao's spellbook are harmless, nature-creating spells.

Wushao has already used magic to help several seriously injured people, healing their physical wounds and other alien invasions that other wizards cannot cure.

However, there were still a few infected foreign substances in her body, and she used nearly ten techniques, but she was still unable to completely eliminate them.

As the alien substance penetrated deep into the lungs and internal organs, constantly twisting the residual magic power within the wizard's body and transforming it into active alien substance, a few drops of sweat dripped from Wu Shao's face; she was somewhat anxious.

Xingyu stood by, listening to the wizards' understanding. She wasn't good at healing, but when she saw that Wushao's expression was off, she quickly ran to Wushao's side.

"What's going on with these people?"

"The foreign substance eroding your body is very troublesome. It may not be from the Void Beast, but rather brought out from the Crack Bubble. It's somewhat similar to the infection on your body..." Wushao spared a bit of attention to respond to Xingyu.

Xingyu checked the condition of the remaining two people. Apart from the active abnormal substances in their bodies, their other injuries had been completely healed under the [Healing Light]. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said somewhat uncertainly:

"How about I give it a try? Although I'm not good at healing, the purification effect of the [Craft Essence] might be useful."

"Is this a good idea to use the Mystic Code directly?" Uso didn't say this aloud, but transmitted it to the other person's mind through magic.

"Saving lives is the priority. There shouldn't be any more fighting today..." Hoshino said hesitantly.

"No, it's just that the formal attire is too revealing... Never mind, you can try it." Wu Shao was about to explain, but seeing the increasingly pained expressions on the faces of the people in front of her, she didn't stop them anymore.

Seeing that Wushao agreed to her method, Xingyu straightened up, took a few steps back, and the intangible magic book on her chest appeared, turning the pages one by one.

She stretched out her left hand, palm up, and held the spine of the book. With a snap of her fingers, the pages closed with a "click," instantly transforming into light and shadow that fell upon Xingyu's delicate body. Her magical armor changed continuously under the spray of light and shadow, and a tangible projection fell from the sky, like a sacred artifact descending.

A magnificent floor-length gown trailed behind her, a blue shawl draped over her back, and a strange blue-purple flower hung from her ear.

[Formal Attire] is not just a change of clothing; wings that appear and disappear behind the body are a pure projection that falls from the sky, forming the outline of the wings.

The golden wings are engraved with intricate inscriptions, exuding an elegant and solemn aura, as if each unknowable word is a divine oracle that inspires faith.

Some wizards behind him, drawn by the light of the magical projection, stared in amazement at the magical miracles that the person before them had never witnessed before. The magical power emanating from Xingyu far exceeded the wizards' expectations.

This is a height they may never reach in their entire lives...

Some people's eyes were firmly drawn to the golden, translucent wings. Wizards who had achieved some success in visual magic could even see the boundless galaxy in the characters through the delicate lines of the inscription.

【Craft Essence: Oracle Fortress】

This is a new ability, a Mystic Code, granted to Hoshino after she advanced to the fourth page, in addition to the addition of a new page to her spellbook.

The entire spellbook will dissipate and merge into the source, summoning a new projection from beyond the realm of magic, a projection belonging to the costume.

In fact, the [Tears of Asteria] she used in the gray-robed man's illusion yesterday was also a spell granted by the Mystic Code. Although she could not use the complete Mystic Code, her innate purification ability could still be displayed under the drive of sufficient magic power and essence.

For the New Humans, those terrorists who willingly coexist with the alien, the purification effect of the Tears of Asteria is almost a special attack.

Now, Xingyu hopes to use the purification of the costume itself to dispel the foreign substances that have seeped into the internal organs of the group.
