Stardew Valley of Gensokyo

A wave of intense heat washed over him, and Akina Sawa muttered to himself.

"This is practically a self-destruction stunt."

"No, this is self-destruction."

Hieda Akyuu, who had been taking notes, put down his brush and calmly raised his head to answer Akina Sawaya's question.

According to the records of Gensokyo's origin, when the phoenix is ​​trapped and unable to escape, or feels unable to defeat its enemy, it will choose to self-destruct to escape its predicament or defeat a powerful foe.

"Doesn't that mean Miss Mokou is in danger right now?!" Akina Sawa's face also turned pale.

"No, Fujiwara no Mokou is from Hourai, and she also possesses the bloodline of the phoenix. Death is merely a distant dream for her."

Hieda Akyuu looked at the radiant Mokou-san with a complicated expression.

As Hieda Akyuu finished speaking, the source of the light exploded.

At this moment, the spherical form that Fujiwara no Mokou had transformed into seemed like a second sun, illuminating the dark world beneath the clouds.

The endless light and heat spread throughout the human world and even as far away as the Monster Mountain and the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, the sun in the sky could be clearly seen.

But this was just the aftermath; most of the light and heat were poured onto the "Savior Witch" by Fujiwara no Mokou.

The witch, whose entire body was engulfed in golden flames, looked remarkably like the Flaming Mountain described in Journey to the West.

"Did that guy self-destruct again?" Under the eaves of the bamboo house, Kaguya Houraisan leaned against the window, tilting her head to look at the dazzling light in the sky. After watching for a while, she shook her head and drew the curtains.

"You're an idiot again today."

The gaming journey isn't over yet; today is still another day as a gamer...

【The World】!

Sakuya Izayoi paused time. Before the young lady could even open her mouth in a smile, she was bathed in golden light for half a second, and then pressed the pocket watch in her hand, which was meant to be an ornament.

Today is a good day for the young lady; the annoying sun is completely covered by thick dark clouds, and the world has become gloomy.

The young lady, who rarely indulged in such refined pleasures, decided to sit on a chair on the balcony and enjoy afternoon tea while gazing at the ever-changing scenery of the Misty Lake.

"Sigh~" Izayoi Sakuya sighed, went over and picked up Remilia, who was sitting peacefully in the chair, and rubbed her soft little head.

?

Sakuya Izayoi patted Remilia's head again.

? ?

Sakuya Izayoi reached out her hand once again...

???

------------------------------------

The light came and went quickly, and in no time, Fujiwara no Mokou burned herself out at the speed of light.

When everyone recovered from their daze, all that remained on the scene was the savior witch, who seemed to have been coated with a layer of film and become glittering with gold.

"Although Mokou is dead, I will carry on her legacy. May you rest in peace, Mokou-senpai!"

As she spoke, Marisa smeared some saliva on her eyes with her finger.

"You brat, I'm not dead yet!"

Fujiwara no Mokou, who should have disappeared, was held in Keine's arms as she arrived. Although she looked somewhat weak, her voice was still strong.

"This is the result of the phoenix's rebirth and the Penglai people's ultra-fast self-healing."

Hieda Akyuu once again resolved Akina Sawaya's doubts.

But Akina Sawa also has another problem.

While people can be reborn, clothes can't, right?

Akina Sawa glanced at Fujiwara no Mokou without making a sound.

Is Mokou now...?

Chapter 83 The Craftsmanship of Dolls

"Boom~"

The enormous savior witch brandished her long tentacles, slashing at the crowd to announce her existence.

The self-destruction just now had virtually no other impact besides making it look disheveled.

The Savior Witch was born from a combination of immense despair power and the power of the remaining Seed of Sorrow within Kyubey.

Mokou herself is a collection of energy. Although she exploding with a lot of energy, it was relatively little for her size.

The long tentacles, carrying immense force, came hurtling towards you; if an ordinary person were hit, they would surely be turned into mincemeat.

A glint flashed in Alice's eyes as she stood in the crowd. Her languid gaze suddenly turned serious, and her fair fingers moved with incredible speed and agility.

A row of exquisite little dolls emerged from under the girl's skirt from another dimension, holding small shields and forming an array to block the tentacles' path.

A single puppet is quite fragile; even Akina Sawa could easily push it aside with some effort. However, if a large group of puppets unite, their combined strength would be something even Ibaraki-Douji couldn't easily overcome.

"Chong!"

The sound of metal clashing came from where the tentacles collided with the doll.

The fleshy tentacles had the texture and hardness of metal, crushing the small puppets standing at the front and the shields in their hands.

Thanks to their sacrifice, the tentacles' unstoppable momentum was halted, and its remaining strength was insufficient to break through the puppet's defenses.

However, the tentacles' attacks will not stop there; the Savior Witch has countless tentacles waiting to strike.

Almost simultaneously, three or four tentacles rose from the ground and slashed at Marisa, who was currently closest to the savior witch.

The tentacles attacked quickly, but Marisa's reaction speed was even faster.

"As a human mage, mastering brooms is a basic skill!" Marisa smirked, grabbed the broom with both hands, lifted it upwards, and dodged the attack with a graceful dragon tail swing.

But the attack did not end there; the tentacles, having missed their target, headed straight for the most eye-catching array of puppets.

"Just in time!"

Alice waved her hands, and the array of puppets in the air changed its formation, with one puppet at the top and the remaining puppets arranged in order behind it.

A drill made entirely of puppets appeared before everyone's eyes.

Alice raised her right hand and inserted it into the end of the drill bit.

Small dolls near Alice's arms simultaneously grasped Alice's skin with their hands and feet, becoming tightly connected to her.

From a distance, it looks like Alice's right arm is covered with a doll armor.

It was unclear whether the sound came from the doll or Alice's ventriloquism, but the doll standing at the drill tip let out a "ya" sound, and then the entire doll drill began to spin rapidly.

It may seem like it took a lot of time, but it was actually all done in a very short period of time.

The flesh touched the watch skin, which was snow-white, yet emitted a nauseating smell.

"Tear!" A tentacle split open from the middle.

Marisa swung her lightsaber, trying to shake off the debris, although the debris vaporized instantly.

Unexpectedly, the severed tip of the tentacle did not fall down but instead burrowed into the adjacent tentacle, turning the two tentacles into one larger tentacle.

Not only that, the remaining tentacles also burrowed into this larger tentacle.

Intersecting, entangled, and fused.

A giant tentacle, fused with numerous tentacles, appeared, its tail consisting of densely interwoven branches.

Faced with this situation, Alice chose to confront it head-on, the doll's drill spinning violently, colliding directly with the tentacles.

Like a real drill, the tentacles' skin was no match for it. Alice drilled straight in, and the little puppets used their small blades to quickly and orderly cut off chunks of thick flesh, turning them into a long string of minced meat that was then discharged by the puppets at the rear.

Even so, Alice's exquisite dress was inevitably stained with dark blood, turning the pure white silk red.

Alice, deep within flesh and blood, delicately brushed her face with her left hand, the bloodstains covering her entire palm.

"Hehe~" Alice chuckled softly.

......

"Master Spark"!

Huge beams of light shot out from Marisa's miniature octagonal furnace, effectively striking the savior witch.

Tentacles were continuously pierced and dissolved, temporarily slowing down the Savior Witch's offensive.

However, Marisa couldn't maintain this attack for long; her mana bottle was almost completely depleted.

Marisa usually uses mushrooms to make magic potions. Although the success rate is not very high, she has managed to make a considerable number of potions over time.

"I originally intended to use it on Patchouli, but I didn't expect to use it all here instead."

With that, Marisa pulled a bottle of blue potion from her hat, tilted her head back, and gulped it down.

Limitless Spark is a spell card that consumes a lot of magic power, and Marisa can only use it continuously with the help of magic potions.

“Great, I feel full of power.” Marisa casually put the empty bottle back under her hat and flexed her non-existent biceps.

"It's time for something bigger!" Marisa straightened her hat, the magical power emanating from her body giving her the idea to go all out.

Marisa's actions have always been ahead of her time.

As soon as she thought about having sex, Marisa's body was already fully prepared.

Marisa gripped the miniature Bagua furnace tightly with both hands, its yin-yang rotating core aimed at the savior witch.

"Hoo~" Marisa took a deep breath, looking at the savior witch's narrow waist in the distance, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

"Final Spark!"

This is a beam of light far exceeding the Limit Spark; it is thicker, hotter, faster, and more destructive than the Limit Spark.

It is the latest and strongest result of Marisa's firepower research, and Marisa has never been confident that she can completely control it.

Each time the mini Bagua furnace was used, it would break down due to excessive power output, requiring it to be sent to Xianglintang for repair.

Marisa gave it a distinctive name, "Final Spark"!

It is vast and unstoppable.

Under the barrage of attacks, all the tentacles that tried to defend were burned away by the Ultimate Spark; it was a futile attempt to stop a chariot.

Alice also emerged from the tentacles, gushing blood like a fountain.

The savior witch's waist was completely pierced, leaving a huge hole in front of everyone.

"Hehe, Alice, do you get it now? Caliber is the most important thing!"

Marisa was like a victorious general, beaming with pride.

"It turned around!"

Fujiwara no Mokou, with her rich combat experience, did not let her guard down and immediately noticed the changes in the Savior Witch.

The dying monster turned upside down, its broken lower half reconnecting to its head.

The sieve-like lower half became the "crown" on its head.

Like ink spreading, a drop of "ink" quickly spread from the "crown" to its entire body.

In a mere instant, the grievously wounded Savior Witch transformed into a gigantic, jet-black anemone.

The sea anemone swayed silently in the wind.

But everyone's faces turned grim; a power called despair filled the space—a terrifying prospect...

Chapter 84 The Inevitable End

"Yin Yang Ghost God Jade!"

With a soft utterance, a Yin-Yang jade as large as a star suddenly appeared in the air.

Compared to her, the hundreds-of-meters-tall Savior Witch is nothing more than an insignificant little bump on the surface.

The air of despair vanished, replaced by the overwhelming suppressive power of the guardian known as the Great Barrier, the Hakurei Shrine Maiden.

When you encounter a wolf in the wild, you'll feel how fierce and terrifying it is, and you'll just want to run away as quickly as possible.
