“Dark Moth, are you alright?!” Xia Mo quickly ran to where Luo Shuangyue landed, looking at her with concern as she just got up from the ground.
Luo Shuangyue was still relatively clean, and her aura didn’t fluctuate much, so it seemed the monster’s attack hadn’t caused her much harm.
And indeed, it was true.
Pure physical attacks would be quite difficult to injure Luo Shuangyue.
Don’t let her appear so disheveled when she was sent flying just now; in reality, her injuries were even less severe than the cannon blast Xia Mo had unleashed on her earlier.
“This guy’s physical strength is incredibly high, and did you see the black blood dripping from its body? That stuff is very poisonous.”
The monster was furiously attacking its only target, completely suppressing Ye Lin.
It looked like Ye Lin would be completely torn apart by this monster soon.
And beneath the monster, the originally relatively flat ground had been corroded by the black blood from its body, forming one pit after another.
As soon as the black blood touched the ground, it began to boil violently, releasing a large amount of black gas.
These gases were composed of highly poisonous demonic energy, which was a terrifying thing for magical girls.
“Senior! Our magic power is depleting too quickly, we can’t stay here long!” Luo Shuangxing, who was using a white light shield to block the black mist, shouted loudly at Xia Mo.
Siam was a very specialized magical girl; almost all her talent points were invested in close combat.
In a situation like this, Siam had absolutely no way to help and could only hide behind Luo Shuangxing to avoid the poisonous mist.
Although these poisonous mists were not actively released by the demon, for Luo Shuangxing, blocking these things still made her feel incredibly strenuous.
If it weren’t for the special training these past few days that rapidly increased her strength, she probably would have disintegrated by now due to exhausting her magic power.
“Let your two juniors leave first; this is not where they should be!” Luo Shuangyue took a deep breath and raised her scythe again. “This monster’s body is constantly disintegrating; as long as we can stall for enough time!”
With that, she charged directly at the monster, launching a fierce assault on the monster whose attention was entirely on Ye Lin.
While fighting, she shouted loudly at Ye Lin, “We’ll deal with our matters later; let’s take down this guy together first!”
Ye Lin was, at least, a communicative localized spirit.
If this monster wasn’t dealt with in time and it ran outside, things would become completely out of hand.
When choosing between two evils, Luo Shuangyue felt that cooperating with Ye Lin was a better choice at this moment.
“…I have no objections.”
The simple exchange ended, and the two reached a simple consensus, engaging in battle with the demon together.
However, the demon’s strength was still far superior to theirs.
This demon’s power had already stepped halfway into the Imperial level; it wasn’t something two newly-awakened magical girls could resolve.
Ye Lin’s true form was the demonic energy remaining after the Serpent Demon King was killed by White Night, while this opponent was a demonic energy creation of an Imperial-level demon.
She was inherently suppressed in terms of innate status.
As for Luo Shuangyue, although she wasn’t inherently suppressed, as soon as she joined the battlefield, the demon’s hatred firmly locked onto her, putting her in a difficult position.
Moreover, the poisonous mist released by the demon didn’t affect Ye Lin, but it did have some impact on Luo Shuangyue.
Every time she breathed now, she felt a burning sensation in her nose, which made her very uncomfortable.
If she hadn’t absorbed the venom of the King Serpent before to enhance her antitoxin ability, she would have probably been poisoned and incapacitated by the mist by now.
The dire situation on the battlefield made Xia Mo, who was watching from not far away, incredibly anxious.
She also wanted to rush up and help Dark Moth fight the demon, but she had just tried to step into the dense poisonous mist area.
As soon as she flew in a little, her magic power began to deplete rapidly.
What a situation!
In this state, let alone helping Dark Moth, she would be thankful if she didn’t just get in the way.
But could she just stand there and watch Dark Moth being suppressed by the demon? Xia Mo couldn’t do that.
She was a magical girl; this was clearly what she should be doing!
And now, she, the legitimate magical girl, had to watch a cadre from a villainous organization and a remnant of a Demon King’s demonic energy fight another demon.
I’m the magical girl! This job clearly belongs to me! Why are you villains working harder than I am?!
No, I can’t just stand by and watch.
No matter what, I have to fire a shot!
Xia Mo gritted her teeth, raised her magic staff, and aimed it at the demon that was hammering Dark Moth like a ball.
A light purple magical glow appeared at the tip of her staff.
This time, she was going to unleash an unprecedented attack!
“Sister Xia Mo…” Luo Shuangxing quickly realized what Xia Mo wanted to do and immediately flew over with concern.
“Forcibly releasing an attack beyond your limit will harm you.”
“Are we just going to stand here and do nothing while they fight the demon over there?” Xia Mo’s gaze was firm as she looked forward.
If Dark Moth wanted to leave, she definitely could, and no one would say anything even if she did.
After all, she had never admitted to being a magical girl; she had always been a cadre of a villainous organization.
But Dark Moth didn’t leave; she stayed here to deal with dangers that magical girls couldn’t handle.
“Even though she attacked me before, right now, I think she’s our comrade. How can we abandon our comrade?!” Xia Mo gritted her teeth, uttering each word distinctly.
All her magic power had gathered at the tip of her staff, but it wasn’t enough.
Such an attack wouldn’t help Dark Moth at all!
I need more magic power.
Only by becoming stronger can I help my friend!
Boom!
Dark Moth in the distance was hit by the demon’s attack once again.
After being sent flying over ten meters, the gray-haired girl regrouped and continued to engage the demon.
And after several close-quarters battles with the demon, Ye Lin’s physical solidity had greatly decreased.
It wouldn’t be long before she was forced back into a state of pure demonic energy.
The situation was getting worse and worse, and Xia Mo watched with growing anxiety.
But her power had touched a transparent, hard boundary. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t increase her strength even a little more.
Impact, constant impact.
Xia Mo felt agonizing screams coming from all over her body, as if her body was also preventing her from forcing herself further.
But seeing the gray-haired girl who was constantly being sent flying and then constantly regrouping, Xia Mo’s heart
There was no thought of giving up.
Even if this shot would severely injure her, she had to fire it to let Dark Moth know that magical girls weren’t just hothouse flowers who would hide and tremble!
