Go to work, and then educate magical girls.

Chapter 96 Claws Are Angry

"Get out of the way."

Faced with Shui Lan's increasingly harsh tone, Zi Wan pursed her lips and remained silent.

She silently pulled a pen from under her skirt and pointed it at the two magical girls in front of her.

Even though she was just a frail mage in their eyes, even though they had once been her teachers.

But none of these were enough to overshadow the "reasons" in her heart.

She wanted to protect her family.

That one thought is enough.

She couldn't protect her parents before, but now that she has a new family, she will do her best to protect it.

The blade of the switchblade pops out from the side of the pen, pointing far forward.

"You're pointing a knife at us?! Are you crazy?!" Chi Yan roared.

Although these toys do not cause them any real harm, they demonstrate Aster's attitude.

She was willing to fight them to the death for the sake of the monstrous beasts behind her!

"I've already explained my reasons to you, but yours aren't convincing enough." Shui Lan lowered her eyes slightly. "So, I'm sorry."

Shui Lan's figure disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, she appeared in front of Zi Wan.

Without any suspense, Ziwan was easily controlled by her.

Chi Yan understood immediately and charged towards the calamity beast at the same time as Shui Lan took action.

After the battle, they came to a conclusion.

Although this calamity beast has an astonishing ability to recover, it is not without limits.

Limb regeneration requires magic power and cannot be created out of thin air.

According to common sense, the magic power within a living organism cannot be infinite.

In other words, as long as they continue to attack as before, this calamity beast will eventually run out of magic and be unable to regenerate.

Therefore, we cannot give the other party a chance to breathe.

The communication they just had with Ziwan was already the maximum concession they could make. While they were talking, the calamity beast had recovered a lot of magic power, requiring them to launch many more attacks.

They could only be thankful that this calamity beast was useless except for regeneration; however, if it had any desire to attack, even the weakest attack would be troublesome for them.

Shui Lan guessed that what Zi Wan said might be true.

Perhaps this monstrous beast truly did not harm anyone else.

But just because it is a calamity beast is enough to sentence it to death.

Disaster beasts do not need special cases.

Thousands upon thousands of monstrous beasts have been born in various cities, causing immense damage to people's lives. Countless families have been destroyed by their claws, and there has never been a single exception.

It does not belong to this world, has no intelligence, and only has the instinct to destroy. This is the indelible mark left by its countless ancestors. So even if this calamity beast has never harmed anyone, it has no reason to survive.

No one can guarantee that it won't follow the same path as its predecessors.

Judging from its appearance, this calamity beast is still in its juvenile form, yet it is already so troublesome. How terrifying will its strength be in the future?

Eliminating it now is the safest option.

Shui Lan controlled Zi Wan, watching as Chi Yan charged towards the calamity beast.

The calamity beast was once again subjected to beatings, but this time it didn't even try to dodge. It just stared blankly in the direction of the aster and made a "squeak" sound.

Seeing Claw Claw trapped in this predicament, a cold glint flashed in Zi Wan's eyes. She had already thought of a way to break the deadlock.

It's just that Claw is too kind; she just stands there and takes the beatings.

Then let her...

Shui Lan discovered that an indescribable and terrifying power suddenly erupted from the girl she was controlling, breaking through her restraints.

Even if it was just a restrictive spell she casually cast, it was still something a mage couldn't do.

Faced with the torrent of magic surging around Ziwan, Shuilan subconsciously took a step back.

"Awakening?"

No, it's not awakening. The energy unleashed when a magical girl awakens is far greater than this.

Taking advantage of the moment when she broke free from Shui Lan's restraints, Zi Wan concentrated all her magic power into the pen knife in her hand, and then hurled it fiercely at Chi Yan's back!

The pen knife shot straight at Chi Yan, who hadn't expected Zi Wan to actually attack her, even though this attack was insignificant to her.

She didn't have time to teach Ziwan a lesson right now; the calamity beast in front of her was more important. So she swung her arm, and the metal gauntlet struck the knife precisely.

"clang!"

The dagger that Ziwan threw with all her might was easily knocked away.

To Chi Yan's surprise, Zi Wan's figure appeared coincidentally in the path of the dagger that had been knocked away.

Caught off guard by the incoming dagger, Ziwan twisted her body to try and dodge, but the sharp tip of the dagger still pierced her thigh.

"..."

The glaring crimson blood slowly flowed down the girl's porcelain-smooth, white thighs, like plum blossoms blooming in the snow.

Just then, Claw, who had been covering its head and taking the beating, suddenly let out a mournful cry.

"squeak--"

A massive surge of magical energy swept across the entire area. Vehicles parked on the roadside shook violently under the bombardment of the energy, and the roadside trees trembled and hissed as countless branches and leaves were torn from their bodies and flew wildly in the irregular airflow.

Fortunately, the surrounding crowd had already been evacuated by Shui Lan, otherwise it would have definitely caused panic.

Chi Yan felt the weak tentacle monster in front of her suddenly transform into a terrifying behemoth, its overwhelming aura making it impossible for her to breathe, and even moving a single finger seemed difficult.

Even the strongest enemy she had ever encountered had never given her this feeling.

How is that possible?

She's a magical girl! How could she lose to a monster?!

Chi Yan gritted his teeth, withstood the immense pressure, and his eyes shone with an indomitable light.

"Crimson Flame, retreat immediately!"

Shui Lan's voice came from behind her. Chi Yan felt a huge shadow looming over her, and she instinctively raised her hand to fight back.

At the same time, a dazzling blue light burst forth, and countless sharp sword energies swept past Crimson Flame's head, colliding with the encroaching shadows.

Chi Yan felt her fist land on a resilient wall; the force of the impact alone made her hand go numb.

Soon, everything went black before her eyes, and she felt as if she were being entangled by something. When she could see clearly again, the scene before her was upside down.

Chi Yan looked down and saw that the monster's tentacles, which were originally as thick as hemp ropes, had become as thick as bowls, and its body, which was no taller than a person before, had become more than ten meters tall. The shadow that enveloped her came from the monster's enormous body.

Chi Yan used all her strength, and her fist rose into a blazing flame. As the fist fell, the flame slammed into the tentacles wrapped around her waist!

But her fierce attack seemed to sink without a trace; the thick tentacles only dented slightly before returning to their original state.

"Don't bother trying, even my sword can't cut through these tentacles."

A blue voice came from the side. Chi Yan turned his head and saw that the other person was just like him, tightly wrapped by a tentacle as thick as a bowl. The hand holding the sword hilt was twisted behind his back and he could not move.

"So you've finally met your match, elegant idol." Chi Yan couldn't help but laugh when she saw Shui Lan's disheveled appearance.

"Are you an idiot? How can you laugh in a situation like this?" Shui Lan tried to struggle, but her arms were bound. She could only unleash magical energy from within her body in an attempt to break free from the tentacles' restraints.

But she found that no matter how much magic she used, the tentacles did not budge.

Chi Yan watched Shui Lan make futile efforts on the side, "What can we do? You can't break free, let alone me."

"Haven't you always refused to admit that you're weaker than me?"

"Ahem, I admit, before I advanced, you were still a tiny bit stronger than me." Chi Yan glanced at her sideways. "So, what should we do with a squad leader who's a tiny bit stronger than me? Are we going to be eliminated?"

"Can you please stop spouting nonsense at a time like this?" Shui Lan couldn't help but swear. She sighed and turned her gaze to the massive body of the calamity beast. "We can only wait and see what she's thinking..."

She misjudged her opponent's strength, causing her companion to end up in the same situation as her.

If it were glazed yellow, it certainly wouldn't make such a basic mistake, right? ...

Although Liuhuang often digs pits for them, they are still very reliable when it comes to acting as pillars of support.

However, she herself was an unqualified captain. Since she took the lead, their team had almost been wiped out several times.

Shui Lan lowered her eyes, making it impossible to discern her expression.

Not far away, Aster gently landed on the giant head of the claws.

Her self-inflicted injury scheme succeeded.

For some reason, Claw had been spacing out and hadn't listened to anything she was saying.

Even though escaping would have been a simple thing, they were silently enduring attacks.

Although these attacks might not necessarily cause any real damage to Claw, she couldn't bear to watch Claw's limbs being torn apart.

That's her younger sister.

This was also the first time she had seen Claw's true form, and she never expected it to be so terrifying.

However, this does not change the fact that the other party is her beloved family.

Moreover, the claws only erupted because she was injured, which gave her a long-lost warmth in her heart.

Aster lay down and hugged the smooth, rounded skin of the marine creature below.

"Claw Claw, listen to me." Zi Wan pressed her cheek against Claw Claw and whispered, "Don't hurt them, I'm alright."

A thick tentacle reached out and lifted Aster's skirt, revealing the skin on her thigh that had been pierced by a blade.

"Chirp chirp..."

The tentacle gently stroked the skin of Aster's thigh, wiping away the blood.

Upon seeing the deep wound, Claw Claw cried out again.

At that moment, Shui Lan and Chi Yan frowned simultaneously, because the tentacles binding them tightened even more, making it hard for them to breathe.

"Paws, be good."

Ziwan leaned down and whispered something into Claw's head.

Claw nodded, and the next moment, the tentacles that had been binding the two magical girls began to spin like a pendulum.

"Hey, feed me..." Before Chi Yan could finish speaking, the tentacles began to spin faster, and the immense centrifugal force prevented her from making a complete sound.

The next moment, the tentacles suddenly loosened.

Two more shooting stars appeared in the sky above the city.

Claw Claw's body shrank rapidly, and she, along with Aster, quickly disappeared into the dark corner.

.

A meteor fell to the ground.

Two disheveled girls got up from the ground.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, or perhaps they were just unlucky enough to fall into a garbage dump.

Fortunately, at the last moment, Shui Lan managed to squeeze out a sliver of magic power and envelop the two of them in bubbles; otherwise, they would have been covered in filthy garbage.

"It's much more exciting than the most thrilling roller coaster..." Chi Yan said weakly.

She thought this trash talk would provoke another attack from the other party, but to her surprise, Shui Lan ignored her.

Seeing that Shui Lan remained silent, Chi Yan nudged her with his elbow, "Taken a hit?"

Shui Lan shook her head, her brows furrowed as if she were pondering something important. "What are your thoughts on this?"

Before Chi Yan could answer, Shui Lan muttered to herself, "Forget it, with your blockhead, it's pointless to ask."

"What are you muttering to yourself?" Chi Yan shouted.

Shui Lan ignored her, straightened her messy clothes, and walked outside.

She has something important to discuss with someone, except for that idiot next to her.

Hibiscus orange and seamstress are the best choices.

In a bedroom, Xia Mei, who had already retired ahead of schedule, was still fast asleep, with an open comic book next to her head.

She read comics until late last night. The newly bought comics were so good that she was completely absorbed in another wonderful world. She probably won't even forget her code name, "Seed Leaf," for a while.

On the bedside table, Xia Mei's phone screen suddenly lit up.

Beware of Tang Feng.

A message appeared on the screen, and the phone screen quickly went black due to the lack of operation for a long time.

"call……"

Xia Mei turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

.

On the train, Jin Cheng put down her phone.

After much hesitation, she still sent the message to Xia Mei.

She then slumped back in her seat, exhausted.

Her slightly closed eyes welled up with tears again.

She knew there was no point in sending that message.

Even Mei, the maple flower, was covering for the weirdo. She could see no hope anymore and just wanted to take Jinju and hide away.

When she made this plan, she had already staked everything, including herself.

If Tang Feng weren't a weirdo, then when Jin Ju returned and saw how intimate she and Tang Feng were, she might have given up some of her sister's idea of ​​a teacher-student relationship with him.

If Tang Feng is indeed that strange person, then knowing more about Jinju will inevitably reveal his true nature.

The plan proved effective.

But learning the truth was so painful. Hearing Jinju and Tang Feng's conversation, every word pierced her heart, causing her unbearable pain.

She had originally thought that, unforeseen circumstances, if Jinju didn't return on time, it wouldn't be a sad thing to simply give herself to him completely.

After all, he was the first man to make her understand what it meant to like someone, and he also made her understand what it felt like for a girl of that age to have her heart flutter with first love.

How could someone like that be a weirdo?

She had only prepared this plan as a precaution.

But rather...
