However.

As that black magic shot towards them.

Lorraine's expression changed drastically, and he shouted.

"No, it's not aimed at us, it's aimed at the ground troops below! Quick, quick, stop it, stop it!!!"

Following Lorraine's instructions.

The sulfur, having regained its senses, also reacted.

Boom!!!

Just a second before that beam of black magic was about to strike the military's ground troops below.

Sulfur arrived just in time and deployed the [Sulfur Barrier], blocking all the attacks.

A violent tremor spread outwards.

The earthquake caused countless soldiers on the ground to wail in agony.

Lorraine, carrying Magenta, descended the mountain, took out a megaphone, and shouted to the tank units and other soldiers below, "Retreat! Retreat! Your weapons are useless here. All of you, retreat back into the city! Quickly! Quickly! Quickly! Move! Execute orders!!!"

An order from the magical girls.

Immediately order all troops below to retreat.

——

Just then.

Another beam of black magical energy roared in.

Lorraine shouted.

"Another attack from the ten o'clock direction, Sulfur, stop it! Stop it! Quickly!"

"yes!!!"

At the critical moment.

Sulfur arrived at the designated location again, deployed the [Sulfur Shield], and successfully intercepted the attack amidst a loud explosion.

However.

This time, even more beams of magic struck again, a total of three!

"Lorraine shouted."

"Multiple waves of magic beams are coming! Everyone spread out to intercept! Sulfur at 11 o'clock, Magenta at 2 o'clock, the rest are mine. If there are no shields, bombard them with magic! Let's have a head-on clash!"

"Yes!!!" x2

Boom!!! x3

The three explosions rang out almost simultaneously. Sulfur blocked the attack with its shield, while Magenta and Lorraine used their magic wands to unleash magic waves at each other, barely managing to withstand the attacks.

After this first round of exchanges, Lorraine felt extremely strained.

The three of them were forced to run around everywhere.

It was extremely frustrating.

"Old Lin, are you alright?"

"Waz shouted worriedly."

Lorraine's face was grim as he stared intently at the giant octopus monster in the distance. For a moment, he even saw obvious mockery and ridicule in its eyes.

He suppressed his anger and said.

"This guy dared to play tricks on us. He clearly knew we wouldn't let it destroy the city, so he simply used the entire city behind us as a hostage. If we all went over to attack, I'm afraid this guy would launch a full-scale attack on the entire city in the blink of an eye."

"Is this octopus monster really that smart? It even knows how to use such a despicable tactic of threatening others?" Sulfur was greatly surprised. In her mind, shouldn't all monsters be incredibly stupid?

"What should we do, Brother Lin? Aren't we completely hampered and unable to fight back? If this continues, we'll be worn down and killed," Yang Hong asked anxiously.

I don't know why.

Lorraine had a strange feeling, as if he had been tricked, but he had no proof.
