In truth, Luo Shuangyue was not afraid of that Demon Emperor at all, because she held a trump card capable of completely reversing any situation.
Ziye, the power left to her by her mother, possessed the strength to eliminate any monster.
As long as she played this trump card before the opponent broke through the Demon Emperor’s level, victory was assured.
“You know it too, right? Her power is far stronger than we imagined.” Luo Shuangyue clenched her fist.
As her strength improved, her acceptance of White Night’s power gradually deepened.
Compared to the mere minutes she could maintain White Night’s combat form before, she could now sustain it for a full ten minutes!
Of course, unleashing her ultimate move at full force would shorten that time, but that was a minor issue.
“It’s best if the situation doesn’t develop that far. I’m a little worried…” Xia Mo stepped behind Luo Shuangyue, wrapping her arms around her and speaking softly.
Luo Shuangyue gently patted the back of Xia Mo’s hand resting on her chest and responded quietly, “Don’t think so much. We will win for sure!”
“Mm.”
“As expected, this place is completely different from the others we’ve handled before!” “It actually blocked our attacks—has the quantity reached a qualitative leap?”
Before the enormous Teleportation Gate, the three Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls looked somewhat powerless at the gate that completely dominated their vision.
Only now did they truly understand how great the difference size could make.
The monsters composing the Teleportation Gate were countless, their mana unified by a single consciousness, ready to annihilate anyone who dared to trespass.
These monsters were already dead; they had become part of the colossal Teleportation Gate itself.
Their power was manipulated by the Demon Emperor, engaging the Magical Girls who came to fight in fierce battle.
“Its combat experience is very weak—find an opportunity to get close and attack!”
As soon as they engaged, the three Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls keenly perceived the Demon Emperor’s weakness.
This opponent’s battle experience was incredibly insufficient.
Maybe it had only been fighting “fish in a barrel,” or perhaps the power it manifested here was not enough for refined maneuvers.
Either way, its blockade was quickly broken through by the Magical Girls.
A flash of silver Magic Artillery shattered the outer defense of the monster Teleportation Gate, leaving a mercurial scar on the gate’s surface.
The Magical Girls’ briefly relaxed mood instantly tensed up again.
Indeed, the Demon Emperor’s blockade had little effect on them, but their attacks also barely harmed the Teleportation Gate.
If this were a teleportation gate in a sci-fi animation, perhaps such a blast would trigger a chain reaction to completely destroy it.
But reality was not animation. After being hit by the Magical Girls’ Magic Artillery, the gate immediately discarded the parts turned to mercury, slicing them away.
The gap was instantly filled by other monsters surging out from the gate, leaving only a slight ripple in the Teleportation Gate.
The Magic Artillery’s power was insufficient!
“My mana can target regeneration, but these things aren’t regenerating at all!” The Magical Girl who unleashed the mercury Magic Artillery frowned and withdrew her weapon.
The monsters touched by her mana would be continuously converted into mercury, a transformation that effectively countered the monsters’ powerful regeneration.
This was why she was chosen to assault the Teleportation Gate.
If the gate had strong regenerative abilities, her power would have been very effective.
But the Magic Department only got half the bet right—the gate indeed possessed strong self-repair, but that ability was immune to countering.
The Teleportation Gate simply discarded necrotic parts and replaced them with new monsters.
Because the Teleportation Gate was made of individual monster units, it wasn’t afraid of regeneration-countering attacks at all.
“Let me try…” Seeing mercury’s attempt fail, another Magical Girl immediately employed her method.
“Space Cleaver!”
A pitch-black blade was swung out, before which all the Demon Emperor’s blocks lost effect.
Quickly, the blade plunged into the Teleportation Gate, destroying everything it touched.
But it wasn’t enough.
The blade indeed damaged the gate, but the problem remained the same as before.
The Teleportation Gate was too large; such a small wound couldn’t reach its core.
Seemingly realizing this, the Demon Emperor’s consciousness even provocatively withdrew the mana protecting the gate, as if enticing the Magical Girls to come attack.
“Come on, break this gate if you can. Do you have that ability?”
Just as this Demon Emperor was not skilled at fighting people, the Magical Girls were not good at attacking something so massive.
Usually, they controlled their power in fights, tending toward precision; who would have expected that one day they’d have to deal with such a monster?
A monster larger than a planet—their ultimate attacks against it were like scratching an itch.
A hundred-meter diameter Magic Artillery blast might seem impressive, right? But Magical Girls rarely made their Magic Artillery that thick.
To the Teleportation Gate, that hundred meters was nothing more than a slightly thick embroidery needle.
The gate was impervious to needle stabs—but what did it matter if you stabbed it? You poke a hole, it fills it back in.
It was a war of endurance.
Moreover, time was not on the Magical Girls’ side.
The Demon Emperor’s main body was rapidly approaching.
What they faced now was just a Teleportation Gate with no ability to fight back.
If they couldn’t destroy this gate before the Demon Emperor arrived, their chances of victory when it descended would be nil.
“Singularity, it looks like it’s up to you.” Two of the Magical Girls sighed, ultimately pinning their hopes on Singularity.
The burdened Singularity immediately shed her usual lazy attitude.
She extended her hands, condensing deep, pitch-black mana into a tiny, utterly black dot in her palms.
Singularity only knew one magic, but for her, that one magic was enough.
“I need some time. Protect me.” This attack required her to go all out, so she needed her two companions to guard her.
Releasing a ‘Singularity’ capable of destroying a star-sized object was a massive consumption, draining most of her mana.
Such an attack was not something to be casually unleashed.
Charging magic was Singularity’s most vulnerable moment, so she was accompanied by two Magical Girls.
Their strength was considerable, but the Magic Department never expected them to deal significant damage to such a massive monster.
If they could manage the current situation, Singularity wouldn’t need to act.
But if they couldn’t, she had to go all in.
At this moment, the two Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls’ mission was to protect Singularity from being interrupted by the monsters.
As long as Singularity could release her magic, everything would turn out well!
After all, the ‘Singularity’ she unleashed was a terrifying spell capable of destroying an entire star.
When Singularity entered the charging state, the Demon Emperor, who had looked like it was nonchalantly saying, “Hit me if you can,” immediately sensed something was wrong.
If the previous attacks were embroidery needles, then this charging attack was like a massive iron pillar.
If this charging wasn’t stopped, the Teleportation Gate would definitely be destroyed!
The Demon Emperor’s main body was very close to this star domain, and its consciousness grew “smarter” as the body neared.
At least it knew it couldn’t lie down and take hits anymore—it needed to take the initiative to interrupt the enemy’s charge.
It had realized the difference between this enemy and the weak elves it once faced; these small creatures truly had the ability to threaten it.
But there was no fear or retreat in the Demon Emperor’s heart—nothing existed that could terrify it.
The monster army guarding the Teleportation Gate charged toward the tiny three Magical Girls under its command, countless black Magic Artillery shells crossing the starry sky like a tide of darkness crashing against the small points of light.
But, just as its previous defenses couldn’t block the Magical Girls’ attacks, only a small fraction of these monsters were Wang-Class or General-Class underlings; they couldn’t break through the Magical Girls’ defensive magic.
They were even counterattacked by the Magical Girls’ released attacks.
The Magic Department hadn’t picked the Magical Girls guarding Singularity at random.
Both were seasoned Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls with extensive battlefield experience and exceptional mowing ability.
In previous fights with monsters, the Magic Department had learned the cosmic monsters’ attacks were quite simplistic—beyond close combat relying on ramming, they only had Magic Artillery.
These two Magical Girls each possessed abilities specifically targeting Magic Artillery.
The Mercury Magical Girl’s weapon was a shapeless mercury ball.
She raised her right hand dragging the ball toward the sky, and a curved mercury shield stretched across the starry sky.
The black Magic Artillery shells hitting the shield caused no ripples but were reflected away by the mercury barrier.
However, the reflected shells were wildly inaccurate, essentially firing randomly.
Even if they struck some unlucky Soul Butterflies, it merely made their bodies tremble.
Using the enemy’s spear against its shield, these monsters were clearly the type that feared pain more than anything.
Their spears couldn’t pierce their own shields.
After all, their previous enemies never needed such sharp weapons, so the Demon Emperor hadn’t considered developing attacks in this direction.
And layered armor development really seemed to work here.
At least its army wouldn’t lose many troops due to this reflection.
On the other side, the other Magical Girl violently shattered the space beneath her feet, reflecting all incoming Magic Artillery back through the broken space.
If she could get close to that Teleportation Gate, she might be able to destroy it completely with her power.
But the risk was too great. It was better to protect Singularity here and let her destroy the gate more safely.
“Singularity, how much longer?”
“Ten more minutes!”
“Alright.”
Realizing ranged attacks couldn’t threaten the enemy, the monsters immediately roared and charged at the three Magical Girls.
The black waves crashed against the tiny reef, seemingly about to smash it to pieces.
But, was that really so?
“No matter how many underlings there are, it’s useless.” Mercury transformed into a long bow, the silver Magical Girl drew back the string and fired a silver arrow at the black sea in front of her.
“All of you, become my slaves!”
The next moment, the silver arrow struck a Soldier Level monster, completely transforming it into a mass of mercury.
Then suddenly, that monster’s body exploded, shooting countless mercury spikes at the surrounding monsters. Upon hitting them, they were transformed into the same form as the Soldier Level monster just now.
And thus, the scene at the front repeated.
In almost an instant, silver spread across a corner of the black sea, rapidly extending in all directions.
Mowing—the mercury was truly expert at it.
But such high-efficiency mowing came at the cost of rapid mana depletion.
“Cough, the consumption is huge.” A hint of helplessness flashed in Mercury’s eyes.
This was her first time casting this magic against such a massive group.
Although transforming a low-level monster didn’t cost much mana, the sheer number accumulated quickly drained her reserves.
Did human-wave tactics work against Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls?
Reality had given the answer: yes, but not entirely.
By sheer attrition, they could indeed exhaust the mana of Full Bloom-Class Magical Girls, but the number of lives required was something ordinary forces couldn’t afford.
Moreover, Mercury’s magic was not a hands-off spell—she needed mana to convert monsters, which was why she found herself in rapid mana consumption.
Her companions were different.
The Spatial Blade swung by Space Cleaver was a hands-off magic; once released, it no longer consumed her mana.
The Space Blade’s sharpness was something monsters could not resist.
All monsters touched by the blade were shredded into tiny fragments, completely losing their regeneration ability.
With Mercury and Space Cleaver working together, ten minutes passed quickly, and the monster army hadn’t advanced a single step toward Singularity.
The two had successfully held back what seemed like an unstoppable torrent.
Next was Singularity’s moment to perform.
“Let all of this be destroyed within the Singularity!” Raising the tiny black dot in her hand, which looked no different from an ordinary “Singularity,” she let out a soft sigh.
Then, she gently tossed the Singularity toward the massive gate.
