Magical girl? She got tricked into this!

Her magical aura was directly covered up by the explosion, causing the Void Lizard that had originally locked onto her aura to lose its target and become a headless fly running around.

Although it is still destroying the surrounding area, the surrounding area has long been flattened, and no matter how much damage it causes, it is unlikely to cause a secondary disaster.

Because she had hidden her breath, Anten Meizi was flying in the air and even passed over the head of the Void Lizard, but the Lizard did not notice Anten Meizi's behavior and continued to eat the ruins of the buildings on the ground.

When the magical girls of the Kanagawa branch who had rushed over from afar saw that this giant beast was actually a fifty-meter-equivalent dragon-level beast, they did not dare to act rashly for a moment, and instead asked the branch to directly request support from the headquarters.

Meiko Anten also highly appreciated this approach, because when she actually fought against the Void Lizard, she found that it was not easy to deal with whether from a distance or close up.

Moreover, her breath alone would be impossible to block unless an advanced magical girl specialized in defense used all her strength to defend.

Just the flame column that was fused with the magic ether would result in serious injuries if one was not careful and if hit directly, one might even lose his life.

After bypassing the Void Lizard and arriving at an area where the building had not yet collapsed, Anten Meiko folded her wings, landed on the ground, and looked around. After stopping all the magic that used magical power, she removed the layer of glass shield.

"you are?"

Meiko Anten, who was originally thinking about how to find them, turned around and looked in the direction of the voice after hearing the girl's question.

"Hello, my code name is Ruby. Are you the person in charge of this operation?"

Volume 5: Light and Darkness: Chapter 17: Sharing Intelligence

Seeing this strange magical girl who called herself Ruby asking her so directly, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and then continued: "My code name is Wu. Nice to meet you. You are right, I am the captain of the Kanagawa branch 8 team."

"What do you think of it?"

Considering that this is someone else's territory, regardless of whether it is support or not, it is not easy for an outsider like Anten Meiko to take over the reins, so she plans to see if the people from the Kanagawa branch have any other ideas.

"The commander told us to hold our ground. Unless our lives are threatened, we cannot act rashly until support arrives from headquarters."

Hearing this, An Teng Meizi touched her head embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, I just had a fight with it."

"You fought it...alone?"

"Ah."

Wu looked into the distance in disbelief.

She originally thought that the collapsed ground was caused by the Void Lizard, but now it seems that is not the case... Who is this girl in front of her?

He actually possesses the strength to challenge a fifty-meter-equivalent dragon-level monster single-handedly and still escape unscathed.

As if she could see the confusion in the girl's eyes, Anten Meizi smiled and then told the truth: "I'm from the Tokyo branch. I came to Kanagawa for tourism. I didn't expect to encounter something like this."

"That's really bad luck. Oh, right... I need to trouble you with something..."

Seeing Wu was hesitant and seemed to be embarrassed to speak, An Teng Meizi asked directly: "Tell me, if I can do it, I will naturally not refuse."

"You said you just fought this lizard, right? Then you should have some information about it, right? I wonder if you could share it with us..."

"no problem."

Even though they are in different branches, they are all members of the same organization after all, so they should help each other. It would be a good thing if sharing intelligence could reduce casualties or even help them get rid of the Void Beast.

Therefore, Meiko Anten did not hide anything, but told the fighting style and characteristics of the Void Lizard that she mastered without reservation.

"I didn't expect this lizard to be so aggressive. Luckily, the commander told us to hold our ground, otherwise we would have been wiped out in an instant."

"By the way, I also saved a magical girl named Yu on the way here. She should be from your Kanagawa branch."

Hearing this word, Wu's eyes suddenly widened a little: "Yu Mei? Is it Yu Mei?"

"I think so? I remember Bubble seemed to call her that."

"Bubbles? Is even Bubbles here?"

During their conversation yesterday, Anten Meiko and the other two had already revealed their code names. Ruoxue's code name was Mika, and Fuzi's code name was Bubble.

"Well, Bubble is not strong enough to fight. After she healed Rain's injuries, I let them leave."

After listening to their conversation and knowing that both of them were fine, the tension on Wu's face finally eased. "Ruby, thank you so much for this. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do if Yumei got into trouble."

"You're welcome. We're partners in the same organization and should help each other. But let me rest for a while now."

Wu looked at An Teng Meizi with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, I was reckless. You just experienced a big battle, but I stopped you and asked you to share information..."

Meiko Anten stopped and then walked to the back of a building, leaned against it, closed her eyes and began to rest.

The previous battle consumed a lot of her magic power, and three of the four fields' copying abilities have been used up. This is a good time to recover while waiting for reinforcements.

Otherwise, it would be quite difficult to defeat the Void Lizard in this incomplete state.

Wu and others seemed to be preparing something, so she didn't send anyone to disturb Anten Meiko's rest, and was busy waiting for news from the commander.

[Vita, do you think I can set up a gravity array to stop the Void Lizard and then deal with her?]

"Your idea is good, but if you want to deploy a Void Lizard capable of suppressing a fifty-meter radius, even if you can do it with your limited skills, it will probably take a whole day."

[A whole day... forget it.]

Vita's words made Anten Meiko grit her teeth, and she became determined to quickly master the magic circle.

After resting for almost three hours, An Teng Meizi had almost recovered, but since no one else had made any movement, she had no intention of asking.

But when she opened her eyes, she suddenly saw the mist passing by her, so she quickly called out to her, "Miss Wu..."

"Miss, there's no need to add that. Just call me Wu."

"fog?"

"what happened?"

An Teng Meizi touched her hair awkwardly: "How is it outside the real world?"

Misty's eyes rolled around, as if she saw the guilt in Anten Meizi's eyes, and she chuckled softly, "You think your battles will affect the real world, right? You're the only one who can pull off such a grand display."

Hearing this from the girl in front of her, Anten Meiko suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

She was a little lacking in consideration before attacking. Kanagawa is not Tokyo. As a member of the Tokyo branch, she was making trouble on someone else's territory. She was bound to be caught and scolded.

"Don't worry! Thanks to the magic detectors, we can now detect any unusual movements of Void Beasts in advance. After noticing the presence of Void Beasts nearby, the commander quickly ordered the troops to evacuate the area, citing an earthquake as an excuse. Although many buildings were destroyed, there were no casualties."

"That's good." An Teng Meizi's nervous heart also calmed down.

This battle is only stronger than the one with the Void Gorilla. With such a big commotion, if there are still people in this area, there should be casualties.

Meiko Anten doesn't want this situation to happen to her again.

"It seems I have to think carefully before taking action next time."

Hearing Anten Meiko's mumbling, Wu nodded in agreement: "That's the right thing to do."

"By the way, have the reinforcements arrived?"

"Yes, they arrived half an hour ago and are still discussing countermeasures."

"Discuss countermeasures? If we really want to discuss countermeasures, why are you, a team leader, still hanging around here?"

"I'm just the acting captain. Yumei has returned, so of course the captaincy will be handed back to her."

Wu paused as he spoke, then raised his eyebrows and looked around at An Teng Meizi with a puzzled look.

Volume 5: Light and Darkness: Chapter 18: Let Me Do It

"What's wrong? I'd be embarrassed if you looked at me like that."

Looking at Ando Meiko's elementary school-like appearance, Wu suddenly clapped his hands as if something had occurred to him. "I remember you. Could it be that Ruby who single-handedly defeated the seven strongest Dragon-class warriors in the Lustful Subjugation War and shone so brilliantly?"

Ando Meiko was stunned for a moment, then nodded awkwardly. Although she didn't admit it outright, she didn't try to hide it either: "I should be the only Ruby Magical Girl."

"It's you, after all! We've only heard of you, but you're the idol of our entire Kanagawa branch!"

At that time, the Kanagawa branch only had two magical girls who had just entered the advanced stage, and their overall strength was not strong, so they were eliminated early in the battle with Vita, so they did not even see the scene where Ando Meiko showed her power later.

But this does not prevent them from choosing to worship this somewhat alternative idol after hearing about Ando Meiko's deeds.

This made Ando Meiko blush, and she quickly waved her hand at her: "No, this is not just my achievement. If everyone hadn't exhausted its physical strength, I wouldn't have been able to get rid of it so easily."

"As expected of an idol, he's humble and not overconfident."

"Just admit it. Putting aside the facts, based on the situation at the time, it was indeed you who took action to eliminate me."

[Master, excessive modesty is actually pride.]

[Alright, alright, I'm really defeated by you two.]

Vita, who has always been very confident and even arrogant in her abilities, has already made this statement, so Ando Meiko didn't say anything else.

After hearing the commotion here, many people came over curiously to find out what was going on. When they heard that the petite and cute girl in front of them was Ruby, the magical girl who had defeated one of the seven strongest dragon-level magicians single-handedly, the chattering sound spread.

When many people learned that the legendary magical girl was here, they rushed over just to witness her in person.

Meiko Ando shook hands with everyone who came forward to greet her. Although she felt as if she had suddenly turned into a giant panda in the zoo for people to watch, she did not reject everyone's enthusiasm.

What she didn't expect was that so many people knew her name, but she had never noticed it.

This matter was soon heard by the magical girls who came from the headquarters, and they quickly invited Meiko Ando to a meeting to discuss how to deal with the Void Lizard.

The only person here whom he had met was Yu, whom he had saved from the attack of the Void Lizards.

When Yu took over the Kanagawa branch team, she was told that she was rescued by a magical girl named Ruby, so when she saw Ando Meiko coming over, she nodded to her with gratitude.

Meiko Ando did not try to get close to Yu, nor did she intend to ask him to return the favor, so after an imperceptible nod, she just smiled in response.

"I heard that Ruby shared the information about the Void Lizards. I wonder if it's accurate?"

Before handing the matter back to Yu, Wu had already informed the headquarters team that came to support her of the information given to her by Ando Meiko, so this meeting was also centered around this information.

After a brief exchange of thoughts, Ando Meiko nodded to the leader and said, "The information is accurate, but I was slightly outmatched against the Void Lizard, so I'm not sure if it has any other offensive or defensive methods."

"It's enough to get so much at once. The rest needs to be done more carefully."

"So what are your plans?"

Meiko Ando looked into the distance. It had been so long, but this thing was still eating, and there was not even a sign of movement. This made people carefully guess its true purpose.

"Originally, we planned to attack its limbs first to disable its mobility, but judging by your intelligence, this approach is clearly unnecessary."

This big lizard is like an artillery fortress. Even if it stands there motionless, its firepower alone is enough to shock all of them.

"After careful observation, I discovered that the lizard's weak spot is its underbelly, which isn't covered by scales. So, we need to assign someone to attract the lizard's attention, and then have someone with strong melee skills sneak attack its belly."

"Lower abdomen?"

Ando Meiko had indeed never observed this place. Because it had scales on its body, she subconsciously thought that the eyes were its weak point, but she did not expect that its entire lower abdomen was not covered with scales, but bare skin.

"But be careful not to use fire magic when attacking by surprise, otherwise it will trigger the oil and miasma beneath the skin."

"I've considered this, but we haven't been able to arrange for the right personnel to attract the Void Lizards head-on."

"Let me do this alone." Ando Meiko glanced at her and said calmly.

The person who can attract the attention of the Void Lizard head-on is not someone you can just pick out of thin air.

First of all, of course, you need to have powerful firepower to attract its attention, and secondly, you need to have super high mobility to avoid its long-range attacks. The most important thing is the courage to face the Void Lizard without feeling timid.

At least here, the only one who can be said to meet all the conditions is Ando Meiko.

"Well, I've fought it before and injured it. It should immediately recognize my magical fluctuations and vent its anger on me. Then you can seize the opportunity to sneak up and give it a fatal blow."

"Are you really okay on your own? How about I assign you a few more people to help you share the burden?"

"No need for that. I know its combat capabilities best, so sending someone unfamiliar with it would only make them a target. It's better to focus all our efforts on destroying it."

The captain of the headquarters team wanted to persuade her, but when he saw Ando Meiko's determined face that said "I've made up my mind", he took back his words.

"I understand. I'll leave the all-important task of attracting the Void Lizards to you, Qiwo③Ling;Shi�qi<3^⒋."

"Yes, I promise to complete the task."

Since it has been decided that Ando Meiko will be the only bait, all the tactics discussed next will be designed around her.

For Meiko Ando, ​​not having to use her brain is a very pleasant behavior, so she is happy to listen to the tactical analysis and instructions leisurely, and occasionally express her own suggestions.

Volume 5: Light and Darkness: Chapter 19: The only thing missing is that guy

However, Ando Meiko's suggestion was more based on herself as a model. Although it was not impossible, it was extremely risky for the entire team.

After all, there are differences between advanced magical girls. Who can be like Ando Meiko, who has only been an advanced magical girl for a few months and has the combat power to fight against a fifty-meter-tall dragon-level girl?

So...her suggestions are basically of little reference value.
