Magical girl? She got tricked into this!

After walking a bit further, perhaps because the atmosphere was too tense, Ando Meiko murmured, "I feel like I'm on a dungeon adventure."

"Dungeon adventure? What is that?" Seeing Lianhua's reply, she was somewhat happy to continue the topic.

"It's a story about a few adventurers who come together to explore a dark place full of monsters."

Keeping your nerves tense all the time is very draining on your mental state. If you let your mind become too tired, you never know what might go wrong when you encounter a battle.

There's not much you can do here, but you can find some off-topic topics to chat about, which will help you relax a little without distracting yourself.

"I think I played this kind of RPG game when I was very young. I see. What you said does make some sense..."

Ando Meiko noticed that Renhua, who was walking in front, suddenly paused in her voice, and then her pace gradually slowed down.

"Is there a situation?"

"Ah."

After getting confirmation, she quickly extinguished the light emitted from the jewel sword like blowing out a candle, and followed closely behind Lianhua, moving forward slowly.

"There seems to be a large square space in front."

"Square...space? How big is it? Are there any enemies?"

"It should be a semicircular structure, but my perception is not that deep yet, so I don't know the details yet."

"Let me take a look."

In this darkness where visibility was zero and there was no light at all, she didn't even need to close her eyes. With a thought, the fishing radar was turned on and the magic power centered on her spread out.

When the magic power touched the rock wall of the cave, it was all intercepted as expected and could not continue to spread outward.

So Ando Meiko simply took back the overflowing magic power and concentrated it in a place without the influence of the black substance, maximizing the diameter range that could be explored.

Even though there was no light in front of her eyes, the entire square space outside the passage was projected into her mind.

"Meizi, did you see anything?"

"It's indeed a large semi-elliptical space, probably over two hundred meters in diameter and about seventy to eighty meters high. Furthermore, the edges of this square are connected to dozens of caves of varying sizes."

The largest of these caves is fifty-five meters high, while the smallest is only one or two meters high.

"Hmm." Lianhua pondered for a moment before saying, "This should be the intermediate station for the Void Beasts during their underground transfer."

The entrance of the passage where they were was about forty meters high, similar to the dragon-level void beast that Ando Meiko defeated last time, but the highest cave here was fifty-five meters, which meant that there might be a fifty-five-meter-high dragon-level void beast in front.

This is not something that the Void Beast, which has just evolved, can compare to. If you really encounter it, it will probably take about ten advanced magical girls working together to have a chance of winning.

"let's go."

Ando Meiko pulled Lianhua back as she was about to leave. After holding down her shoulders, she said hurriedly, "Something is coming from the passage in front of us."

Lianhua was stunned. She stopped where she was and turned her perception to the maximum, but still found nothing.

In fact, it was not just her. No enemies were found in Anten Meiko's witch radar.

But Anten Meiko's detection magic is different from Renhua's ability to use magic to locate. Her detection magic can even detect extremely weak magic fluctuations.

And in the exit of the passage in front of them, a trace of magic power was continuously seeping out along the ground.

Moreover, the entire ground was vibrating at a weak frequency, as if some huge monster was walking slowly towards a place.

Boom, boom, boom...

As the magic power that seeped out became stronger and stronger, the behemoth was getting closer and closer. Even without the need for detection magic, they could feel the ground beneath their feet vibrating like their heart.

"Here it comes." The two girls murmured in their hearts at the same time.

Then they felt a huge monster that was 46 meters tall crawling out of the passage.

It was a lizard, but not of any kind that lived on Earth.

Its head, covered with solid red scales, looked like a dragon's head. There were eight dark holes arranged side by side on its strong, muscular back. Its huge tail swayed slightly as it moved and stood up.

Anten Meiko could feel the black magic power faintly seeping out from it. The power of this dragon-level creature was simply incomparable to that of the newly evolved Void Gorilla.

Moreover, there seemed to be quite a few ghost-level and king-level void beasts following behind this Sijiu-headed lizard. An Teng Yazi didn't count the exact number, but roughly estimated that there were at least twenty to thirty ghost-level and hundreds of king-level ones.

[Vita, it looks like a relative of yours. Do you want to go out and say hello?]

[Huh? How does it look like me? If you keep talking nonsense, be careful, I (a) Lingqi will beat you up! ]

"No way, it's clearly alike! Look at this head, look at this body, isn't it just you without the wings?"

Meiko Anten gritted her teeth, her body trembling slightly with anger.

It's already this late, and these two clowns are still arguing in their own minds. What if they are discovered by this thing and it attacks them all of a sudden?

Forcibly blocking out the sound of the two people's quarrel, Anten Meiko continued to shift her attention to the moving lizard.

However, because they were trying their best to suppress their own magic power and these black substances would affect the flow of magic power, the lizard did not notice their presence.

The lizard continued to move forward and slowly walked into the highest passage.

The void beasts following behind dispersed and left through other passages.

A huge number of void beasts poured out of various passages like a tide. When the last void beast left the square, ten minutes had passed.

Fortunately, the passage they were in was not the target of the group of void beasts. If they were discovered, even if it was only a general-level beast, their mission would basically be invalidated.

However, the abnormal behavior of the Void Beast made the two girls unconsciously ponder. Where are they going?

It looked like they were marching in an organized and purposeful manner, but the dragon-level, ghost-level, king-level, and general-level monsters were all scattered into other passages, making it impossible to guess the methods of these monsters.

After waiting for a while to confirm that no other void beasts came out of the passage, they left the original passage, stepped into the square, and walked towards the depths of the nest.

"There must be something controlling them behind the scenes. Otherwise, with their rationality, it would be impossible for them to act in such a purposeful way." Lianhua said as she thought.

"Maybe it was controlled by that lizard."

"Perhaps even this lizard is being controlled by someone. Meizi, how much do you know about the domain of dragon-level void beasts?"

Meiko Anten briefly recounted what she knew about the territory of the Dragon-level Void Beast.

"Pseudo-territories don't just offer strength, defense, and speed. There were also some special types that had mental and magical enhancements. However, those seem to be rare creatures, appearing only once in every ten dragons."

After hearing what Lianhua said, An Teng Meizi seemed to understand: "If that's the case, then it's not impossible for a special species with absolute command power to appear, right?"

Not only that, perhaps this entire nest may have some pseudo-territory ability created by the Void Beast with the ability to dig holes.

However, running all over Japan to dig holes in such a short time would not be possible even for a speed-type Dragon-level Void Beast, not to mention that the pseudo-domain can only possess one kind of power.

Could it be god-level?

A terrible thought suddenly arose in her mind. No matter how much she tried to suppress it, the idea still popped up uncontrollably.

Her breathing became heavier and even her hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Meiko?"

This state continued until Lianhua realized that something was wrong with her and called her name.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." An Teng Meizi shook her head and quickly drove away the thoughts in her mind, "I just thought of some bad things."

"Anten Meiko, Anten Meiko, how can you feel fear in a place like this? If you lose your will to fight, what will you do next? Don't you still have to protect Lianhua?"

She patted her cheeks hard and forced herself to cheer up: "I'm fine now, don't worry, where are we going this time?"

"Let's go to the nest where the Void Beast came out. There should be something in there..."

Before Lianhua could finish her words, the ground beneath their feet suddenly shook, and before they could react, the entire ground collapsed.

"not good!"

What trapped them was a passage that was just big enough for her and Lianhua to slide down together, so even if she could fly, she couldn't spread her phoenix wings in such a narrow space.

Under Lianhua's somewhat surprised gaze, she pulled her waist into her arms and said, "If that doesn't work, try this!"

She held the magic wand horizontally above her head, perpendicular to the cave. "Gun!"

The magic wand instantly turned into an iron spear and inserted directly into the rock walls on both sides as it extended. With the support of the iron spear, she and Lianhua managed to stop before landing.

"Phew, it's so dangerous."

"We estimate we've descended over a hundred meters. Yazi, let me down first."

"Eh? Is it okay for me to just let you go like this?"

"It's okay. We're only a few dozen meters away. This level of impact is nothing."

"Okay." She released the lotus in her arms and let it fall along the passage to the ground below.

After Tia left, she also put away her iron spear and let gravity carry her to the ground.

The place they entered was another square, but this space was much larger than the square above which served as the intermediate station.

And there seem to be countless red spots of light at the edge of this space.

It's just that these light spots are too blurry, so they are not very clear. Even if you use the fishing radar to sense that place, you can only see a huge ball of magic power.

"What are those red things?"

After a quick check of the surroundings and finding no enemies, Meiko Anten transformed into a jewel sword and raised it up, allowing it to emit light that illuminated the space.

And the moment she saw the true appearance of those red spots, Anten Meiko's pupils suddenly shrank.

The thing emitting red light is a black ball of similar shape and size. Under these black balls is a black pillar connected to the ground like a stem.

These things look like black dandelions, and from time to time they beat like hearts.

"These...are all eggs? These eggs, aren't they all Void Beast eggs?"

How did the Void Beasts come into being, and why are there such huge numbers of them?

Meiko Anten had thought about this question countless times, but she overlooked the most obvious answer.

The first ghost-level void beast she faced, the void spider that almost killed her, became weak because of laying eggs, and was also furious because its eggs were attacked by surprise.

Although it is not known how the first batch of Void Beasts were born, there is no doubt that the number of Void Beasts can be increased through maternal reproduction.

咚

An extremely heavy voice turned into sound waves and spread among the giant eggs.

All the giant eggs affected by the sound waves began to beat violently, and when the beating speed reached its limit, they burst directly like fish eggs bitten by humans.

One after another, the black young void beasts were blown into the air by the force of the explosion, and then fell to the ground with a "thump" in an awkward and funny posture.

Just looking at the funny scene in front of her, Meiko Anten couldn't laugh at all.

Because the void beasts that were thrown to the ground were absorbing the black liquid on the ground, which was blown away along with the black eggs and splashed on the ground.

As they absorbed the liquid, their bodies began to expand. The first void beast to land grew to a height of over 20 meters in just a few breaths.

"Ghost level? Born in just a moment?"

The moment the ghost-level void beast stopped growing, it locked its gaze on the two girls standing and observing from a distance.

"Has it been discovered?"

"Yazi, stop looking at them and get rid of them quickly, otherwise it will be difficult for us to deal with them once all these void beasts grow up."

"I understand." Coming back to her senses, she immediately switched to the speed-specialized Star Flash form.

"Get it done quickly and find an exit to get out of here. We've discovered enough today."

The two of them rushed out at the same time, their figures turned into two lightning bolts, one white and one red, and An Teng Meizi, who was obviously faster, had already rushed into the newly born void beasts.

For a moment, accompanied by the flashing of red sword light, black flesh and blood kept flying in the air.

Volume 4: Something Hidden Beneath the Earth: Chapter 70: The Black Wave

With the combat power of Ando Meiko and Renhua, the king-level void beast can no longer pose any threat to them, and the ghost-level one is only a little troublesome to deal with.

The two men rushed into the enemy camp one after the other, just like a mowing game. Groups of young void beasts were cut into several pieces without even having the strength to resist.

However, after death, these void beasts did not fall down on the spot, but turned into a pool of black water and melted directly into the ground, and were completely absorbed by other void beasts.

"Is this the characteristic of a young Void Beast?" Meiko Ando pondered in her heart.

When she was fighting against the Void Spider, the Void Spider had transformed the offspring in its eggs into black magic liquid and absorbed it into its body.
