Chapter 177: 100 Memories of the Sea
The brief recitation obviously did not have the ability to block the attack. After Hong Siyu finished speaking, the black arrow easily tore through the defense line formed by the blue lines and rushed to the slightly thin figure.
However, just as the arrow was about to hit, Hong Si and the closed notebook in his hand suddenly flew into the air, blocking the fatal attack.
The notebook that was hit first made a sound of pages tearing under the weight. A moment later, accompanied by a low muffled sound, the notebook and the arrow exploded together, and scattered into scattered pages in the air.
Delphinium, who was watching from the side, had her pupils slightly shrunken, and her clenched fists subconsciously tightened a little, but in the end she didn't say anything, but just watched the changes quietly.
Since Hong Siyu promised that everything would be fine, she should trust him. Trusting one's companions is the most basic quality of a magical girl.
In this moment of thought, the scattered pages of the book changed.
The originally messy papers did not disappear. Instead, they stayed in their original positions after floating for a short time, and then suddenly stood up as if by some strange external force.
Each page of the book radiated a purple-red magical glow, which was no less brilliant than the sunlight at noon. In the glow, those thin pages inexplicably produced double images, and then the double images began to solidify.
The gradually solidified pages of the book turned automatically in the light without wind, and the "swish" sound of the pages turning was uniform, like a well-rehearsed piece of music being played loudly.
At this moment, each page of the book turned into an independent book, and the blank pages revealed their contents amid the neat writing sounds. Then, all the books were placed behind Hong Siyu, forming a thick wall of books.
At the same moment the wall of books was formed, Hong Si and her attire had become completely different.
A purple and pink headband is passed through the purple-red hair, the sparkling petal-shaped earrings sway slightly, the low ponytails hanging on the shoulders flutter in the wind, and the wide waist-length high-collared cloak covers the chin, revealing only the slightly calm upper half of the face.
Under the cape is a slightly slim-fitting Hepburn skirt with a single-breasted buttoned waist, with a few crystal pens hanging on it. Dark pointed low-heeled shoes are placed in a row under the skirt, with the toes slightly drooping, floating in the air.
Combining Hong Si’s thoughts with what she said before, it is clear that this is her expanded form, and its name is “One Hundred Memories of the Sea”.
However, Delphinium knew that "blooming" should be an ability that a magical girl would only possess after reaching the flower level. As a magical girl stuck at the bud level before her retirement, Hong Siyu should not have such power at all.
Being able to use the real Fan Kai here, there is only one possibility - Hong Siyu not only regained the ability to transform, but also became a Flower level after regaining the ability.
"Look, senior, this is my Fan Kai."
She raised her hand, and a book that looked simple and gorgeous flew from the wall of books into Hong Siyu's hand. She turned her head and looked at Kuei-jai with a smile: "I am now at the Flower level, and I have finally caught up with you."
"You..." Delphinium opened her mouth after a brief pause, as if she wanted to ask something, but before she could finish her question, she was interrupted by another arrow.
To be exact, it was not one arrow, but three arrows fired simultaneously.
Amid the sound of bowstrings vibrating, three arrows shot out in three different directions and along different trajectories. In just a moment, they were in front of the two people.
"puff!"
The sound of an arrow hitting was heard, but it was not a person who was hit. Instead, Hong Sihe moved his fingertips slightly, and several books flew out from the wall of books behind him, blocking the black arrow.
The attack hit but failed to work. Yuan, who was stranded between the buildings, lowered his hands. The inky black bow turned into a ball of ink-like fluid again. He looked at the majestic wall of books, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
“Is it flourishing?”
She showed a slightly excited smile on her face: "Interesting, what kind of ability will it be?"
The short-term defeat did not make her feel frustrated. On the contrary, her fighting spirit became more and more high as her opponent showed her ability.
"Stop playing around, and quickly unfold your wonderland..."
Semi, who was lying on her shoulder, showed symptoms of airsickness due to the high-speed flight and flipping. He covered his mouth listlessly, "Others have already used their magic armor! How long do you plan to fight her with your blank magic armor?"
"I'm serious, Sammy."
Yuan exhaled slightly: "It is precisely because I am serious enough that I want to win with my own skills. This is the real respect for the opponent. When using the wonderland, it is a fight, not a competition."
"I don't think the other side takes this as a competition..." Semi muttered unhappily, but before he could complain, he saw the book wall not far away changed again, and all the hair on his body stood up immediately: "Be careful!"
Following its reminder, half of the books in the wall of books flew out under Hong Siyu's command, and then were neatly arranged in front of Hong Siyu.
Like a librarian, Hong Siyu carefully counted the books in front of him, then gently pushed his hand in the direction of Yuan. In the eyes of everyone, these books seemed to open up one after another as if they had their own consciousness, and the revealed pages each recorded completely different runes.
"Compared to memory, the ability of Yihai Baiji has become broader, transcending the concept of ordinary 'things' and being able to record more extraordinary things on the magical side."
Hong Siyu counted the books in front of him and introduced them in a gentle tone: "Compared to the previous record that could only record ordinary objects and spells, Yi Hai Bai Ji can restore illusory environments, scenes, and even events. Not only that, its recording principle has changed compared to Yi Ji. I don't need to understand the essence of that thing. I just need to record it according to what I see and know, and I can naturally restore the function in my memory."
"Even if the recording is done this way, even the slightest error will result in the final reproduction being a thousand miles away from the original, but at least on the surface they look the same."
Her voice was not loud, and the wall of books in front of her blocked her from hearing these words. Obviously, she said this to explain to Kuei-Chi: "Unfortunately, Senior, it came too late. Now I don't have time to record enough information on it. I can only select some from the country's information as a last-minute effort."
"What did you record before you came here?" Although Delphinium was full of doubts, she knew that now was not the time to chat, so she looked at the wall of books not far away and went straight to the point.
"Magic suit."
"Magic suit?"
"Yes." Hong Siyu answered briefly, "Dozens of magic costumes selected from the records."
As she said this, the neatly arranged wall of books in front of her changed again. Objects of various shapes emerged from the opened pages.
At first glance, most of these items seemed ordinary, small objects in daily life, or some ordinary weapons. But after Hong Siyu's introduction, Cui Que had understood the essence of these items - magic equipment.
Among these magic costumes, some were very familiar to her, all of which were created by some well-known magical girls; some were quite unfamiliar, and were obviously found by Hong Siyu from the country's information.
"Condensation of the Sky, Hell of Fire, Wheel of Knots..."
On the other hand, Yuan simply reported the names of some of the magic costumes.
She looked at the magic costumes emerging from the pages of the book, and her slightly puzzled expression revealed a bit of understanding, and then she became more interested: "I see, after Fan Kai, he can copy other people's magic costumes? Not bad."
"These magic costumes...can't they all be genuine?"
Unlike Yuan, who had no sense of crisis at all, Semi's thinking was obviously more pessimistic: "If they are all real, are we going to die here?"
"Whether it is genuine or not, we will know after the battle."
The double pupils of black and white appeared in his eyes again. Yuan took a deep breath, and a white breath came out from his mouth and nose: "There are many old opponents here, don't just show up, otherwise I will be very disappointed."
After saying this, she pushed hard with her feet, climbed up from the wall of the office building on the other side, and rushed straight towards Hong Siyu.
The battle thus resumed.
Although the magic suits that appeared from the book were not driven by anyone, they moved under Hong Siyu's command and flew towards the direction where Yuan was. The special abilities of these magic suits were also activated, and for a moment, the various magic fluctuations became a mess, making it impossible to see the surrounding scene clearly.
At the same time, a large number of pedestrians had gathered on the street outside the Yi Ce Bureau. The battle in the sky was so loud that these people could not help but stop and watch, wanting to see what was going on in the Yi Ce Bureau.
In order to disperse the gathered pedestrians, a large number of security personnel were sent to the gate of the Strategy Bureau and began to forcibly drive away the crowd of onlookers to prevent them from being affected.
On the other hand, the notice sent directly by the director has also been delivered to every employee of the Strategy Bureau - there are magical girls fighting the enemy on the upper floors of the main office building, and employees from all departments are requested to evacuate to a safe location in an orderly manner.
Perhaps because their base was taken over by Black Dawn just a month ago, most employees have become immune to such things and did not show much surprise.
However, some of the evacuated employees were sharp-eyed. When they left the main office building, they looked up into the sky. Although they saw explosions like fireworks, they did not see the beasts they had imagined.
As for what questions these people will have, it is no longer within the consideration of the magical girls.
Blazing flames, thunder, wind vortexes, a dazzling array of magical abilities burst out as Yuan chased after him. These were even just abilities that were relatively easy to distinguish, and those that were relatively hidden were even more numerous.
Yuan waved the ink-like liquid weapon, and the magic suit named "Bai Wu" also changed into various forms in her hands, sometimes it was a sword, sometimes it was a knife, sometimes it was a spear, and sometimes it was a dagger... She used various weapons to fight against various magic suits, and the sound of "ding-dong-dong" of metal collision was endless.
The special abilities of those magic costumes mixed with the white mist around her. For a moment, they could not invade her and could only hover outside.
As the fight went on, the seemingly one-sided battle gradually became balanced. Yuan's movements in the magic suit became more and more free and unrestrained, and her movements became more and more natural. If it weren't for the fact that the originally tattered Taoist robe had completely turned into a piece of rags, no one would have been able to tell that she was fighting.
Her movements were more like "martial arts performance" than fighting.
No matter what kind of weapon it was, she would use a weapon that countered it; no matter what kind of object it was, it became a weapon in her eyes. Double attack and random attacks could not disrupt her rhythm. She created a vacuum zone among the layers of magic armor by herself.
Compared with her relaxed expression, Hong Siyu's expression seemed a little solemn.
The magic equipment that was besieging Yuan had not yet been able to work, and the books in front of her were becoming more and more illusory, with a tendency to gradually degenerate from books back into pages.
This trend became more and more obvious as time went on, and after the battle lasted for about five minutes, Hong Siyu finally couldn't help but groan, and all the books in front of him disappeared.
Along with the book, the magic costumes that were besieging Yuan also disappeared.
Yuan, who was still immersed in the fierce battle, noticed this. After seeing the magic suit in front of him dissipate, he withdrew his hand with some reluctance, carried the black long sword that the magic suit turned into on his shoulder, and said to Hong Siyu: "Is this the end? Nothing more?"
Hearing her words, Delphinium beside her frowned slightly.
From beginning to end, Yuan never used his own magical realm, and only used the most basic magic outfit to survive Hong Siyu's attack.
This certainly shows that her fighting skills are superb, but it also shows one thing - her magic power is enormous.
The blooming of a magical girl can greatly enhance her own magic power. Even if Hong Si has just started to blossom, her blossoming ability is not mature enough and the bonus to her original magic power will not be less than five times.
Even if the magic power of a person who has just entered the flower level is multiplied by five, it can only be tied with the normal Kite, which is enough to show how terrifying the opponent's magic power is.
"Well... because I'm not very proficient in using my abilities, my magic suit can only be recreated for about five minutes..."
Hong Siyu explained to Cuique awkwardly, "If we practice a little more, we won't have so much time."
"Using magic suits to fight her is not a good choice." Delphinium thought and said, "Obviously, the opponent's close combat ability is very strong. If the abilities of those magic suits cannot affect her, it will just be a simple hand-to-hand fight."
"It seems that I made the wrong choice."
Hong Siyu looked at Cuiqiao with some apology: "I think the magic suit is the thing that can best form combat power in a timely manner, so I recorded the magic suit before leaving, but it seems to have no effect on her..."
"Magic costumes are certainly an important part of a magical girl's fighting power, but what's more important is the user's development and understanding of them. If you simply copy a magic costume, even if the abilities are the same, it will be difficult to use it to the same extent as it was in the hands of the original owner."
Delphinium shook her head: "This method doesn't work. Can you reproduce other things?"
"No records yet..."
Hong Siyu whispered, "But you can still use the technique recorded in the 'Memory' before."
"The effect of the spell on her is limited. You should have noticed that there is something wrong with the white mist around her."
Delphinium, who had watched the entire battle, calmly analyzed: "Your spells are not completely ineffective against her, but those spells that should have been effective were not only avoided by her, but also largely offset by the white mist."
"Yeah." Hong Siyu nodded reluctantly.
"So, now we can only delay time."
Delphinium sighed helplessly: "The enemy is more difficult than I imagined. I don't know what other tricks Emerald has..."
"Well, actually, I met the Chief when I came here."
Before Kuei Chrysanthemum could finish her words, she was interrupted by Hong Siyu. She tugged at the hem of her cloak hesitantly and said in a low voice: "I discussed a solution with her that might be able to help you."
"Help me?"
Delphinium blinked in confusion, "Isn't it now?"
"Not really, because, actually, I still have something I haven't shown you yet."
Hong Siyu lowered his head, pulled out a book from the book wall beside him, and handed it to Cuique: "I originally wanted to defeat the enemy by myself and leave a good impression on you, senior, but now it seems that the effect is not very good. So I'd better give this to you while I still have magic power. This is probably the last resort."
"What is the solution?"
"Senior, you just said that the power of the magic suit ultimately depends on the user, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Then as expected, even if I can reproduce as many magic equipment as possible, without the experience of the user, I will not be able to use them to their full potential, or even show their original power."
Hong Siyu put his hand on the cover of the book, and said hesitantly, "The only way is to let the original owner of the magic suit use it."
As she said this, she gently opened the cover of the book. Immediately afterwards, an extremely strong light burst out from the book in Delphinium's hand.
Delphinium lowered its head slightly, and saw clearly what was revealed in the light of magic. Its originally calm expression froze, and it raised its head in disbelief.
It was a small pair of tailor's scissors.
A pair of tailor's scissors, only as big as Delphinium's palm, but extremely delicate, covered with intricate patterns.
The shape of the scissors looked a little illusory, but the texture in the hand was extremely real and familiar. The complex pattern was filled with purple-red magic, as if telling its source, but when Delphinium held it in her hand, this magic that did not belong to her became as easy to use as her arm.
"I'm not very familiar with the other form, so I can't reproduce it no matter what, but I remember this magic suit clearly."
Hong Siyu released his hand, still smiling: "It was it that saved me from despair, so it would be a pity if it just disappeared like this."
"You saved me with it. Now, let me give it back to you for a short while."
"Let my magic suit become your magic suit, Senior."
