After get off work, I become a magical girl

This is also a very profound subject. In the entrance examination of the Magic Kingdom Academy, there is such a classic judgment question.

[Fireball and Fire Wall are both fire-related techniques, so they are the same type of techniques ()].

This question was set by Emerald himself in the early days of the institute. Hundreds of years later, it was removed from the question bank by Emerald himself because it was too simple. However, it undoubtedly represents many counterintuitive aspects of the surgical classification system.

The answer to the question is "wrong".

There are two reasons. The first is that there is no such category as "fire system" in the technique. Rather, words such as "water", "fire", and "thunder" in the technique have always only modified the appearance, not the essence.

The second reason is that Fireball and Fire Wall are not the same type of spells.

Although the external expression images of the two techniques are both "flame" and people see the image of fire, the principles of the underlying structure are completely different, so there is no such thing as the same origin.

Therefore, the classification of spells in the magic kingdom often has to be memorized by researchers, and they may even have to personally look up the rune composition of each spell in order to understand why it belongs to a certain category.

However, among so many surgical procedures, there is an outlier.

Unlike the counter-intuitive nature of other classifications, almost half of the techniques in this classification can be identified at a glance, and the essence can be directly identified from the appearance alone.

Because the common feature of this type of spell is the use of a large number of rune structures to assist in the compression and arrangement of magic power, thereby achieving high density and high energy level of magic power.

The official name of this category is "high energy and high density". Of course, no one would call this technique by this name in combat. Magical girls would just give it an intuitive and easy-to-remember name.

——"This is really, quite intuitive..."

Looking at the brilliance formed by the runes in his hand, Xia Liang sighed subconsciously.

Magical equipment, magic power, and techniques, she has already used everything she has, just to defeat her opponent in the next fight.

There is no such thing as controlling the strength, because she knows that she does not have the luxury to control the strength now. If she tries to control it more, she will only lose.

She didn't really want to lose.

So I could only use this move which I had just conceived a few days ago and I wasn't even sure how to use it well.

Yinli has fully displayed the posture of the magic suit, but now they are all lined up in a row, and all the mirrors are stacked together, forming circles to form a long cylinder, pointing from the air to the ground of the training ground.

The rune in Xia Liang's hand was aimed at a mirror.

The technique that Cuiqiao taught her a few days ago was a rather unpopular technique. As a basic technique in a certain category, its practicality was quite poor. Not only could its range only reach within ten meters in front of it, but it could also easily affect the user of the technique within these ten meters.

However, this will not happen if you use the method of guidance.

The property of Yinli can transfer magic power, which can extend the range of this technique infinitely. It can not only retain the power of the technique at close range, but also ensure that it will not affect Xia Liang himself.

This technique, and the entire category of techniques it belongs to, has a resounding name:

——“Explosion Series”.

Chapter 212

The greatest advantage of the technique called "Explosion" is its power. The high energy of magic power is enough to easily blow through the magic barrier of opponents of the same level.

At the same time, its biggest drawbacks are range and stability. It can only be activated with itself as the center, and it is almost impossible to extend its activation time. As long as the structure of the explosion ritual is constructed with the Favor Rune, it will collapse on its own even if it is not activated.

This has caused the "explosion" technique to become a rather unpopular technique, because its cost-effectiveness as a means of attack is really too low - it requires one to be in a very close distance to the enemy, and to cast several layers of magic barriers on oneself at the same time as releasing the technique in order to escape unscathed. To describe it as "humorous" is considered a restrained comment.

The most common use of this technique is when a magical girl feels that she cannot defeat a remnant beast and wants to die together with it. She uses all her magic power to deal a fatal blow to the remnant beast, with the awareness of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting herself by eight hundred. Because of this, most magical girls have a hard time showing any good face when talking about this technique.

However, there are also quite a few magical girls who believe that "firepower is justice" and have been persistently improving the original "explosion" technique, constantly trying to make up for its own shortcomings. The result of their efforts is the creation of more advanced techniques, expanding the "explosion" technique into a real technique classification, and thus the entire explosion technique school was established.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with the cool summer weather now.

She learned the explosion technique not because she was interested in it, nor because she wanted to die together with the enemy, but because she wanted to form a combination of skills that were unique to her.

Combining the explosive techniques with the draw to make up for the lack of offensiveness of the draw itself and the shortcomings of the explosive techniques themselves, this was the suggestion that Cuique gave to Xia Liang.

Although this suggestion was entirely based on Cuique's conjecture and had not been subjected to any actual verification, Xia Liang chose to believe it and completed its prototype in just a few days.

And now, this combination skill, which is only in its embryonic form, is shown in front of others for the first time.

The magic power in his body has to be drained away in an instant while he maintains his magic outfit and uses the magic spell, even the "explosion" spell which consumes quite a lot of magic power. The real feedback he gets is a strong feeling of exhaustion.

But the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. After the spell was activated, she no longer had the ability to stop it.

"Is it really okay? Should we prepare to intervene?" Outside the field, Kusanagi once again looked at Aso Yuanxiang: "If this move is used, even if your team members can survive, the surrounding residents will come to complain to us."

"...Then let's use a barrier to protect the venue."

Aso Yuanxiang, who had been pretending to be profound, finally spoke up: "This trick is quite interesting. Did you invent it?"

“It can only be regarded as a proposal.”

Delphinium shook her head: "Until this child actually makes it happen, I'm not sure if it can be done."

"The destructive power can be felt just from the flow of magic power. If you can master this move, you will probably have no problem passing the test."

Aso Yuanxiang praised: "It's really good. You can't tell at all that she is a child who has just been a magical girl for half a year. The degree of perfection in all aspects is too high."

"Are you just praising our team members here? Where is the kid named Mimosa?"

Delphinium glanced at her sideways again: "This kind of power is not something that ordinary leaf-level can handle. It will be stronger than ordinary explosion spells. Aren't you worried about her safety?"

"Is it safe...?"

Muttering the two words proposed by Delphinium, Asou Yuanxiang slowly raised the corners of her mouth, and then finally turned her head and looked at Delphinium: "Sister, do you know what place Mimosa ranked in the practical test when she got the white card certification at the beginning of this year?"

"A practical exam?"

The word brought back some memories for Delphinium.

As far as she could remember, she had actually only taken the qualification certification exam once, which was a white-label certification when she was a rookie. And because she had not fully developed her abilities at the time, she only passed with an intermediate level score.

If she was asked to deal with Xia Liang's current combination skills, she probably wouldn't be able to do it. At that time, her magic suit would not be able to withstand such a powerful attack. The best solution is to determine the opponent's attack intention and dodge it.

Aso Yuanxiang naturally knew all this. In fact, when her results were released that year, her ranking was even lower than Delphinium. So at this moment, it would not be without reason for her to bring up this indicator.

——"From your expression, I think you've realized that the kid is ranked very high, third."

And this is the answer given by Aso Yuanxiang.

As these words were spoken, the battle in the arena had officially entered its climax.

"I hope the effect won't be too outrageous..."

Staring at the dazzling purple magic light in front of him, Xia Liang couldn't help swallowing his saliva, then he exerted force with his palm and pushed out the fully activated Favo rune in his hand.

The purple light immediately penetrated the vertical row of mirrors, lighting up the entire mirror track at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, and bombarded in the direction of the mimosa.

During this process, Mimosa just held her magic wand and watched quietly.

Contrary to what Delphinium thought, she had no intention of hiding away.

Rather, although the fight with Xia Liang only lasted a few rounds, she did not move even a step from beginning to end.

She watched the light of the spell in Xia Liang's hand bloom, and then, amid the harsh bombardment, she opened her mouth slightly and whispered:

"Protect me, shoot my eyes."

As she finished speaking, the wand in her hand had turned into a small tambourine. She grabbed the tambourine with her left hand, and then tapped it briskly with the tips of a few fingers of her right hand.

"boom"!

A crisp sound was heard, and along with it emerged an extremely subtle light red magic power, which quickly spread like ripples on the water, and then, visibly to the naked eye, it offset a portion of Xia Liang's technique.

Although it only offset part of it and failed to completely eliminate it, it was enough.

As she continued to hit the tambourine, more and more magic patterns were constantly emitted. As long as these magic powers touched Xia Liang's rituals, they would dissipate part of the energy in the rituals, thereby continuously reducing their power.

And this whole process is completed in almost just one second.

A second later, when Xia Liang's spell hit Mimosa, the spell structure had become extremely loose and had completely lost its previous power. It was easily blocked by Mimosa's defense of several superimposed magic barriers.

Until the process was over, she still didn't move a step.

At the same time, Xia Liang, who had a large amount of magic power drained away by this explosive combination skill, could no longer maintain his transformed form. His magic clothes dissipated, and he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

"So...tired."

Unable to utter a word, Xia Liang supported himself on the ground with his hands, facing the floor, feeling the sweat sliding down his cheeks and finally dripping onto the ground. His mind went blank.

She didn't even have time to think about winning or losing, nor could she care about the fact that her "unique move" was easily solved by her opponent when it was first used. She could only gasp in vain.

After all, it is impossible to relieve the fatigue of the original form by breathing.

“Can it be used again?”

Standing opposite her, Mimosa tilted her head: "If there is a second round, it will be very difficult to deal with."

"……Gone."

Blinking his eyes, Xia Liang answered honestly.

She could feel that she actually still had some magic power, but at the moment she really couldn't even move, so there was no point in bluffing.

Although she had thought that her opponent would not be easy to deal with before the duel, she never expected that her opponent would be so powerful.

An ordinary leaf-level magical girl would never be able to handle this technique. Even an egg-level beast would most likely be killed by a single blast. However, the opponent took it on with ease.

However, she surprisingly didn't find it hard to accept. Rather, after knowing that her opponent was a "senior who was promoted to the Leaf level a year earlier", she knew that she would most likely lose.

If possible, she actually didn't want to lose. After all, she had found a rare opportunity to be alone with her junior senior, and she had also perfected her fighting style under the long-lost individual guidance. It would be best if she could end such a memorable moment with a victory.

Now...

Keeping his head down, Xia Liang slightly side-glanced at Cuiqiao who was standing beside him with a slightly frowned brow and a worried look on his face.

...In this way, it doesn't seem to be a loss.

Thinking of this, she took a few breaths, and finally slowly raised her head, grinned, and looked at the mimosa in front of her with a smile.

"I surrender."

Crisp and refreshing.

……

……

"The next group, Baimei vs. Baiji... both players, please enter the venue!"

Moko's voice was heard again in the training ground, but it didn't sound as loud as before.

The first round of the competition ended with the defeat of the Fangting City team.
