"Sign up with me and become a magical girl. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
In the moonlight, QB said.
"Huh?" Youxi was stunned for a moment, stretched out his finger, and pointed at himself: "Me? β
Even she didn't expect that she would face such an invitation one day, and her mood was really ...... It's too complicated.
"Your qualifications are not inferior even if they are comparable to that of Dekame Yuanxiang." QB smiled: "How?" If it's you, you can make it happen. β
"Eldest grandson Youxi, what is your answer?" It looked at the silent maiden, "Tell me." β
"I'm sorry, but I've never thought about that."
Youxi shook his head and refused without hesitation: "It won't be in the future." β
"Doesn't it matter if you don't save this dimension?"
"Because there's always another way to save the world."
So naΓ―ve, she said, believing that it exists in this world, even though the odds are negligible.
"It's a naΓ―ve idea, but it's rare anymore." QB said indifferently, "Then stand on the opposite side of me, girl." β
"Do you want to fight?" Youxi held the Demon Dao Book seriously: "Although I'm not good at it, I'm also very powerful." β
"I have more things to do now, so I can't." QB shook his head: "Say goodbye, girl." Hope you succeed. β
It turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly turned its head and said seriously: "After a while, I will assimilate this world and become my territory." β
"So, cherish your time." It whispered, "When the time comes, you'll never have a chance again." β
Moment. It leapt from the ruins and disappeared into the steel forests of the city.
In the silence of the only sound of the wind. Yuki breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it had really left, and only then did he hear a weak gasp from behind.
Jumping off the back of the hellhound, she didn't care about the blood and examined Xiao Meiyan's injuries, and after finding the broken iron bar that pierced her, she took out a knife from the space and carefully wiped it with a handkerchief.
In the haze, Xiao Meiyan noticed that something was stuffed into her mouth, and some familiar voices came.
"Bite. Bear with it. β
In the next moment, the tearing pain spread from between her chest and abdomen, sweeping like a tide, causing her to let out a hoarse scream.
The sword flashed away. Ariki instantly pulled out the iron bar that hung her from the wall from her wound. Throw on the ground.
The foreign object disappeared, and under the system of the magical girl herself, the hideous wound that was enough to make people die for a long time began to close at an incredible speed.
Until the end. All that remains is smooth skin and blood that has lost its source.
Trying to open her eyes, she noticed the blurred figure in front of her, and clenched Yuki's palm with all her might.
Using all the strength and reason she had left, she prayed hoarsely, "Madoka...... ...... by the Witch Save her...... Please. β
It hurt a little from the huge force, and Ariki endured the pain in his wrist and unfolded the healing magic that had been halfway through.
Flashing dots of light flew out of her hands. Falls into Akami's body.
Seeing that her pupils were still holding on to her unwilling to sleep, Youxi nodded seriously: "Okay." I immediately went to her. β
In the next moment, Xiao Meiyan felt the darkness coming, and finally fell into a forced slumber because of the technique.
Carrying the sleeping Xiaomei Flame hard, Yuki put her behind Xiaobai's back, and turned his head to look into the depths of the dark city.
There was something like a beacon that unleashed a dark aura of despair and resentment in all directions, and a silent wail.
Youxi rubbed Xiaobai's chin and said seriously: "I'm going to trouble you to carry her on your back, and find out the witch by the way." β
The hungry hound arched her chest with a pleading look.
It's hungry again.
Yuki pulled its cheeks into a strange shape and said seriously, "You can't eat it, the witch is also a poor girl." β
Some pitiful whimpered twice, and Xiaobai jumped into the air, galloping towards the source of darkness with a swift wind.
In the wind, Yuki rubbed its hair and smiled: "But there are still a lot of snacks brought out this time, so it's better to share a little bit with you." β
Visible to the naked eye, it showed a happy expression, accelerated its speed, and instantly tore through the barrier between the unreal and the real, and entered the realm of the witch.
The moment he entered, Ariki turned his head to look at the strange images that kept flashing inside the barrier.
It is a combination of resentment and despair, and it is full of darkness and reveals its own meaning - to extinguish pests.
At that moment, Yuki stopped and looked seriously at the strange text that appeared in the air.
As a witch born out of despair, she will no longer lie or try to hide her purpose.
But in their eyes, what they are doing is just 'fighting pests'?
No, if it's just a witch, there will never be such a strange purpose, and when transformed into a witch, all that remains is the madness of destroying everything.
So what is it that reveals this line of handwriting through the presence of the witch?
"The counterattack, has it already begun?"
Yuki whispered to himself, "Humans have been treated as pests." β
Stretching out her hand to erase the line of pitch-black magic lines, she looked at the sky above the complex and ever-changing enchantment, and said to someone seriously, "I won't let you do this." β
"Absolutely not."
β¦β¦
How big is the gap between 'desire' and 'reality'?
Since it is called a wish, it should be the most beautiful reality imagined in the heart, right?
Compared with the magnificent and colorful dreams of dreams, reality is more often a cruel iron gray, and there is no room for any fantasy.
No matter how much the subjective consciousness tries to pray for the world, if it does not have the power and action to achieve it, the wish will never happen.
The reality is so cruel.
One side is a cruel world, and the other side is a good wish, and the distance between the two is probably beyond the description of numbers, right?
So. Most of the time, people prefer to rely on something that will fulfill their heart's wishes.
The most favorable illustration of this is the innumerable gods and spirits of mythology and wishes.
And in the infinite world. There has never been a shortage of items that can have this kind of power.
Dragon, Holy Grail, Jade, Lamp...... Or an incubator with the name 'QB'.
Although Yuki doesn't know what kind of function the incubator has, so that he can directly cross the rules and communicate with the core of the dimension to carry out 'world-class' information operation modifications, it is undeniable that it does fulfill the wishes of the contractor.
Whether it is an incredible desire to live, or even 'becoming a god', it can be achieved by changing the rules of the world.
You don't need seven dragon balls and a 'divine dragon' to be able to achieve miracles 'at no cost'. It's as easy as drinking water,
But does it really cost to make your wish come true?
It's not just 'magical girls' and 'karma' who play the expensive payer of 'wishes', it's the whole world!
Since changing the world. There will be consequences.
The wrong ride of one line will overload the entire circuit and scrap it. Not to mention the more complex and larger dimensional system?
The dimensional interwoven by countless rules is not just something that can be described by 'pulling a hair and moving the whole body'!
Its sophistication is beyond human imagination, and even a small number can change the entire universe beyond recognition!
Ever since the 'Hatcher' began his plan to raise magical girls and harvest the seeds of despair. How many times have the rules been changed?
Without thinking about the consequences, they smear reality according to their own wishes, sever the connection between 'cause' and 'effect', and even rebel......
The rules are constantly distorted by revisions, and the concepts are reread and eaten up again and again......
It's like the evil dragon born in the future in the Dragon Ball world.
When the rules reach a certain limit because of the twisting of the incubator, it will be like 'sore suppuration'. Vent the general outburst and rebound.
Because of the same 'cause', this periodic outbreak is often surprisingly adaptable to the spirits of despair and resentment of the witches. It will even be completely combined.
Whenever this happens, the phenomenon of destruction erupts.
And this is probably the so-called 'Night of Valpurgis', or 'Night of the Witches'.
Even if so, it's just a superficial effect, right? Or the warnings and ultimatums given by the world.
And how many times has 'Witch Night' erupted? How many more times can the universe support such overdrafts and modifications?
No one knows.
If it is not completely cured, the sores will become deeper and deeper, spreading more and more to the interior of the world, until finally the world will be 'incurable'.
When applied to the entire dimension, it is the complete destruction of the rules, the collapse of the law of cause and effect, and the final heat death, falling into death.
In other words, human beings, who have never been aware of what they are doing, have become a cancer in the entire universe.
And between the dimension and the human race, the incubators, who act as intermediaries, can easily withdraw from the matter and watch the human race fall into death because of their own arrogance.
Because the instrument is sinless.
It is human beings who make wishes, human beings who obtain results, and only human beings who bear the consequences.
The incubators have been exempted from punishment by virtue of the loopholes in the rules, but they have obtained enough power to support the continued development of the race, and even if there is a day when the universe dies, I am afraid that they will break through the shackles of the dimension with the power gathered in this process, and start a new round of 'signing' in another world.
Perhaps this is what they call 'avoiding cosmic heat death'?
With such a result, Yuki will never allow it to happen.
However, the solution can never be described as 'easy', and now the terminally ill dimension has no cure, and if you want to restore your health, you need to 'break down and stand up', clean up the already messy dimension, and rebuild a new world.
Or, as Yuki chooses, use a 'miracle' to remove all the confusion of cause and effect, and restore the rules to a normal state, so as to continue the dimensional life.
One is reconstruction. One is continuation, and the latter is many times more difficult than the former. It's also more like a naΓ―ve fantasy.
It's easier to destroy than to build, let alone turn a tofu scum project that was only discovered to have serious design problems when it was completed into an excellent building that is of 'good quality', 'earthquake-proof level 9' and not afraid of bombardment and air raids?
It's a little easier to talk in your dreams than to imagine the possibility of the latter.
Yuki understood the difficulty of the task from the beginning, but she didn't expect it to be so tricky.
However, she understands that such a 'miracle', just 'making a wish' or becoming a magical girl, is absolutely impossible to achieve.
It's like Madoka, who has sacrificed for this in countless reincarnations, even if she doesn't completely restore the world to normal.
It's just because the last wish made by Madoka Kame has exceeded the scope of what the dimensional can bear.
As QB puts it, that kind of hope can only be transformed into despair that comes from nearing the destruction of a world.
However, the capacity of the universe is limited, and the universe, which can no longer withstand the attack of fierce drugs, wants to maintain its own existence. It is only a one-sided elimination of its cause.
The biggest sequelae is that in the new world, there are still 'Warcraft' instead of 'Witches'.
It still takes countless magical girls to sacrifice to fill the loopholes in the rules, and it is still a fragile balance piled up with the sorrows and lives of countless girls.
And is this what the new world of your imagination looks like?
Ariki moves forward in all kinds of beautiful fantasies, breaking into the enchantment intertwined with roses and thorns. The face that had always been smiling in the past was now silent and angry.
This time. Do you still have to sacrifice Madoka Kame in exchange for that world?
Absolute...... No, you can't.
Regardless of whether that kind of world is beautiful or not, it cannot be tolerated if the premise is hopeful.
What's the point of sacrificing an innocent girl to save a world? Is life not the same at both ends of the scale?
Yuki knew where his limits were, and he never thought of measuring the scales from the perspective of the gods.
So. Nor can such a choice be made.
No matter which end is chosen, it is too cruel for the other party.
Even in this world, which is far more cruel than anywhere else, she firmly believes that the happyend where everyone laughs exists somewhere.
So, she's going to find out!
Certain!
With such conviction, she raised her palm. The magic power is expanded with the Demon Dao Book as the core, forming a large and complex pattern. Energetic magic swept in from the outside world and gathered in it.
This is where the blazing light is born, shaped into a sword of light.
The flaming Valkyrie Phantom flew out of the unfolded pages, sword of light in hand, unfurling a barrier that tore apart a garden of countless metal roses and scissors.
'Go away!' ''Get out!'' ''Get out of here! ββ¦β¦
In the overlap of countless screams, the last barrier of the barrier was torn apart, and in just half a minute, she broke through all obstacles from the outer layer of the barrier to the core in the quickest way.
In the dust of countless oil paintings, she emerges from the broken gap and finally finds the innocent imprisoned in the depths of the barrier.
Seeing the embarrassed Mayaka Shikame and Sayaka, Yuki breathed a sigh of relief, dispersed the power gathered in his hands, and showed a relieved smile: "Finally, I caught up." β
I found it because of the cry for help, but I was pulled into the enchantment by a sudden witch and almost became food, even adults can't withstand such continuous changes, right?
Regardless of whether they are magical girls or gods who are powerful enough to rival witches in the future, they are still just underage girls at this moment.
Before the continuous change, it is enough not to cry out and be called strong.
In the burst of shattered flashes, the two people who were pulling each other and running wildly instinctively ran towards the way of life, and finally saw the vague voice clearly.
"Yes, Nozomi?" Makaka Shikame gasped in disbelief, and immediately shouted vigorously: "Run!" Something terrible is coming after you! β
"yes, I know." Ariki nodded and said, "But if I'm here, there's no need to be afraid." β
"Huh? Are today's transfer students so bold? β
Sayaka pulled Madoka, who was physically weak, and ran forward, trying to pull up Yuki in a panic and walk with him: "It's really going to be eaten, let's go!" β
After pulling down, she realized that Yuki was actually motionless, as if she didn't see the huge monster slowly rising from the thorns.
In the next moment, she turned her head and found that unconsciously, a pure white hideous beast had appeared in front of her, only a few tens of centimeters away from the pair of scarlet pupils.
Of course, they screamed and retreated: "There are also fronts, fronts!" β
"It's okay, it's okay." Yuki tried hard to comfort the two classmates who were holding each other up and screaming: "This doesn't eat people." β
"How can something that big not eat people." Sayaka held Madoka behind her body, shivering, but still not succumbing to the ground.
"Really, Madoka and Sayaka-san touched it during the day." Youxi said, turning his head and reaching out to pull the hellhound: "Look, it's very familiar, it's Xiaobai." β
"How is that possible...... Xiaobai is obviously a cat! Sayaka fell into a stupe, and Madoka Kame, who was showing half of her head behind her, nodded in agreement.
"Now it's a cat, too." Youxi tried hard to put on a serious expression, turned his head and said to Xiaobai, "Scream." β
Because of the master's order, the hellhound fell to the ground helplessly again, and made a weak and soft voice: "Meow~"
"Really, really a cat?" Sayaka forgot about the dark witch who slowly swelled and wriggled behind her, and was struck down by this incredible reality.
However, Madoka Shikame noticed something else, and pointed to the sleeping girl on the back of the hound in surprise: "Xiao Meiyan-san." β
Should it be said that it is worthy of 'Ji You'...... The bond between the lilies cannot be eliminated by reincarnation.
"Oh, I rescued her from the outside." Yuki looked at Madoka and said seriously, "She didn't forget to let me save you before she fell unconscious." β
"I'm so envious." She pulled the two of them behind her back and showed her usual smile: "It seems that both Sayaka and Xiao Meiyan-san have a very precious friendship with you, so you should cherish it." β
"Classmate Yan......" Yuanxiang Shikame looked at Xiao Meiyan in distraction, and what she felt in her mind became clearer and clearer, as if a sleeping memory was about to wake up.
The vague dream became clearer and clearer.
