Chapter 79 Aegis
The sudden flash of light formed a long straight line in the air, finally attracting the attention of passers-by nearby.
Not only that, the people who were confused and panicked when the office building was attacked finally noticed the commotion in the air and realized that what they were experiencing was not an earthquake.
"What's going on, thunder?"
"There's a piece missing from the edge of the building over there. Is it a remnant of an animal?"
"I didn't see any remaining beasts. Has it been destroyed?"
On the street below, passers-by gathered together and started talking.
Although no one knows exactly what happened, when there is no obvious threat visible to the naked eye, people's instinct to do good will make them choose to watch rather than run away.
What they don't know is that at this moment in the sky, the threat still exists.
"Hello, hello, hello? Are you still reacting? Is this the extent of it?"
After the black and yellow light faded, Sparrow put down his hands, with a somewhat bored expression on his face: "If I get killed like this, I will have to have a good debate with your fans about whether you are just a name without substance."
You know, before this trip, she was actually very interested in the former flower holder named "Cornflower".
According to the information she knew, although the former karuta's current condition might not be very good, she should be able to have a good fight with him.
As one of the few lifelong magical girls in the magical kingdom, Cornflower's name was the hottest legend when she first became a magical girl.
Every magical girl who claims to be a genius has to face the name "Cornflower" before talking about how excellent her talent is.
She achieved the Bud level in two years, made great contributions in the defense of the "Garden", and obtained the two honors of Hanaru and Lifetime Magical Girl at the same time. It was unprecedented that she was summoned by the big shots in the Rose Palace at that time. In terms of reputation, Cornflower was unparalleled at the time.
With the blessing of reputation, talent, strength, image... and many other factors, during that period, many new-generation magical girls claimed to be fans of Cornflower.
However, this legend did not last long. Just three years after its debut, Cornflower abruptly disappeared from the country and from the public eye.
Some said she died in a battle with a powerful beast; others said she retired and married a royal family member in the Rose Palace; there were even rumors that Cornflower was a fake identity and there was someone else behind it...
However, a few days ago, Sparrow heard another version of the story.
The theory is that cornflowers are actually in the defense of the "garden" -
——"Masterpiece, No. 4, Aegis of the Asylum."
The cold and indifferent voice interrupted Sparrow's thoughts.
The hazy and clear light lit up, also attracting her attention.
Where the Delphinium had floated before, there now appeared a huge round shield made of azure magic threads, like a hollow sculpture.
This is the "masterpiece" of delphinium.
Weaving silk threads and solidifying them during entanglement to create special weapons is an advanced application of the Delphinium Silk Thread Magic Armor.
Because the magic suit contains not only magic power but also the power of soul will, the masterpiece can still withstand the attack when facing the power of Sparrow that can corrupt the magic barrier.
Even though the surface is eroded and pitted, this masterpiece has faithfully completed its mission and protected its owner.
The petite blue-haired girl stood behind the shield unharmed, her expression changed from previous coldness to become quite calm.
"This is the first time I've seen such corrosive magic."
Loosening his tightly clenched fingers, the silk thread shield in front of him collapsed instantly. Kuijin changed his gestures and pushed away the threads that were still lingering around him: "Is this your special support? Or do the so-called claw marks have such dangerous magic?"
Based on her previous combat experience, this nature was extremely unfamiliar.
The magic power of most people in the world is featureless. She has seen one person whose magic power has special properties. Such people are generally called "Deviators" by the country, but their manifestation is completely different from that of the magical girl in front of her.
Now she suspected that this highly corrosive magic was probably a unique technique of the organization called "Claw Mark".
"Your intention to answer in a clichéd way is too obvious, old woman."
Seeing that his attack didn't seem to work, Sparrow became interested again, but still said: "It's no wonder that I know nothing about the current situation in the world when I retire in such a remote city, but what reason do I have to tell you?"
The khaki magic power condensed into a magic wand in her hand. She raised it and pointed it directly at Delphinium's face: "Defeat me first, then think about extracting information from me!"
The tip of the wand suddenly flashed with light, and then a beam of magic power even more powerful than before was shot out again in the direction of Delphinium.
This time, Delphinium, who was well prepared, tapped her feet lightly and simply floated sideways for a few meters to avoid the attack.
She turned around and retaliated with two beams of magic power, forcing Sparrow to move to the expected area, then hooked up the silk threads around her body and tried to use the magic suit to control the opponent.
On the other hand, before coming here, Mahjong had already investigated the abilities of the former flower card's magic suit. Although his ability to weave weapons instantly was a little unexpected, his fighting style of using silk threads to bind the enemy was not deviated. She knew that she could not fight him in the network of silk threads, and it would be easy to fall into the opponent's rhythm, so she quickly distanced herself from the lily and moved to a space with fewer buildings around.
The magic thread of Delphinium is not without support. If you want to use it for leverage, there must be a flat surface around it to fix the end.
Therefore, for her, the best battle scenes are indoors, in caves, on the ground, or at least among buildings, so that she can better weave her own network.
In addition, if you encounter a high-speed moving target, it will become very difficult to control the opponent. Cuiqiao herself is very clear about this.
So when she saw the other party moving towards a more open space, she had to think about it and make a decision. After weighing the pros and cons, she felt that it was very important to catch the evil magical girl in front of her, so she put away her magic suit and followed closely.
It is not suitable to use magic equipment at high altitudes, so it becomes a pure air battle.
The blue and yellow magic clashed fiercely in the air, and countless magic bullets and magic beams appeared from different directions, and then disappeared after being shot to unknown places. The two magical girls continued to fly at high speed, trying to use their magic bullets to knock down each other.
The total amount of magic power of the sparrow seems to be better than that of the delphinium, so it keeps squandering its own magic power and constantly oppressing the movement route of the delphinium with faster displacement.
Delphinium was more refined and economical in the use of magic power, and would not make any useless moves or accelerations. Even when facing the opponent's frequent shooting, it would simply deviate at a small angle and pass by its trajectory.
She tried to lead the sparrow back to the office buildings, but the other party was obviously not fooled by her. Instead, it fully exerted its initiative and approached the delphinium aggressively.
It was not until the distance between Delphinium and her in the air was reduced to less than ten meters that she suddenly laughed.
Then, his words reached Delphinium's ears through the whirring sound of the air:
"Sparrow, magic power is extracted."
