Chat Group: Starting by Body Swapping with Elysia? - Chapter 34
Chapter 34: Don’t Answer Questions with Questions!
***
The RPC series armed helicopter mechs indeed possess extremely strong combat capabilities. Even ordinary A-rank Valkyries would find it difficult to deal with these heavy firepower machines without wearing Valkyrie battlesuit or being equipped with high-powered weapons.
Although she spoke lightly about it, Sakura Kyoko had to admit that taking care of this thing was quite troublesome.
While magical girls are products of the idealistic side, for the efficient application and conservation of magical power, most of their magic is used to enhance physical movement.
Of course, each magical girl also has her own special skill, magic born from the wishes they made.
If that kind of miracle were used, even things they weren’t good at could be easily accomplished.
Unfortunately, Kyoko’s magic nature was extremely special.
Born from her wish for people to listen to her father who was a priest, she gained magic that could bewitch people’s hearts, called 【Illusion】.
When it comes to fighting humans and other living beings with consciousness, illusion magic is an absolute killer weapon that can confuse and control enemy actions.
The drawback is also obvious, this magic is meaningless against mechanical products.
The RPC armed helicopter in front of her wasn’t piloted by anyone, but rather an automated technological product.
In the plan that Jiang Qiao had revised for Elysia, the red-haired girl was precisely the countermeasure he had prepared for a certain banana man — a copy of Welt Joyce.
Although he didn’t actually think that fox Cocolia would bring such a defective product with her during the Nagazora City arc, out of cautious consideration, Jiang Qiao still made some countermeasures.
Against the banana man who possessed the ability to control gravity at a thousand times normal, neither Hu Tao nor Yunyun would have a chance of winning. Only the red-haired girl who mastered illusion power and had a body different from ordinary people, as well as himself as the Herrscher of Origin, could handle it.
The appearance of the helicopter was unexpected, disrupting Jiang Qiao’s plans somewhat. His understanding of World Serpent led him to judge that World Serpent would continue to lay low at this stage, which resulted in this battle with extremely poor compatibility.
Indeed, the more one schemes, the more easily one’s plans get disrupted by unexpected things…
But even with extremely poor compatibility, Sakura Kyoko was still among the elite of magical girls!
“Hmph, scrap metal!”
After a fierce battle, Sakura Kyoko seized an opening and destroyed the RPC’s core components with one shot. Standing on the big machine while leaning on her spear, she looked quite disdainful.
Kyoko: “Hmph, done. Image.JPG”
Kyoko: “It looked pretty impressive, but it wasn’t durable at all. Not even as troublesome as some witches!”
Hu Tao: 666!
Yunyun: +1
“That was efficient.”
Jiang Qiao, who was under examination, looked at the group messages with some surprise. Had it only been about 10 minutes?
If things continued at this pace, as long as there were no problems on Cocolia’s side, this battle seemed like it could end without him needing to intervene at all.
While he was thinking this, Kyoko, who had been showing off her battle results with screenshots, suddenly looked sharply in a certain direction and called out:
“Who’s there!”
As her words fell, a strange figure wearing an odd mask walked out.
— Fu Hua looked at the red-ponytailed spear-wielding girl in front of her and fell into brief silence.
After entering Nagazora City, she had used the Shadow Knight battlesuit and the positioning information Otto gave her to find the ME Corp building, and quickly entered the underground levels.
All along the way, the ground was covered with mechanical wreckage left behind when Elysia and the others had fought their way in.
Then there was this unknown girl full of hostility in front of her.
“Do you know this person?”
Fu Hua, who wasn’t good at communication, thought for a moment and then displayed a satellite-captured photograph through projection, asking a question.
Naturally, it was a photo of Jiang Qiao.
“Hah? Why should I tell you? And also—”
“Don’t answer questions with questions! Didn’t your teachers at school teach you that?”
Unfortunately, Fu Hua was the type who wasn’t good at communication, while Kyoko was an irritable delinquent girl.
Moreover, Fu Hua had shown a photo of Jiang Qiao, so the red-haired girl, who hadn’t had enough of fighting, directly classified her as the same type of enemy as the RPC armed helicopter.
Battle was about to break out.
At the same time, in the base’s central control room—
“So you’re Cocolia?!”
Kiana’s angry rebuke made Cocolia frown as she spoke:
“Kaslana family members are really noisy.”
Although she hadn’t actually met many Kaslana family members, the white-haired fluffball still gave her a bad impression.
Of course, it didn’t matter.
Because Kiana had originally come to beat up Cocolia, they were enemies!
“You said there wouldn’t be any problems, but you still let them reach me. That Gray Serpent guy, hmph!”
Although she had never had much trust in Gray Serpent to begin with, seeing three little things fight their way to her door and recalling his previous confident assurances, Cocolia couldn’t help but snort coldly:
“But it doesn’t matter. It’s actually convenient that you’re here, saves me from having to proceed with the plan so slowly!”
“I won’t let you hurt Mei or the people in this city!”
Kiana was furious, but Elysia smiled with some trouble:
“Oh my. Sorry, Miss Cocolia, but could you… please stop this crazy plan?”
Even when dealing with Cocolia, Elysia’s tone was quite polite and harmonious, but anyone could hear the firmness in her words.
She just hoped to end this chaos peacefully.
“Hmph. Jiang Qiao, was it? I’m quite curious about how you discovered my classified plan, but there’s no need to say such pipe dreams.”
“Besides, it’s already too late~”
Cocolia, who had been sneering, suddenly revealed a strange smile.
This made the three of them suddenly feel uneasy.
“What do you mean?!”
Kiana was the first to demand an answer.
“Didn’t I already say? This plan was a bit too slow.”
“So, after thinking about it, I decided to make this plan a little faster.”
Cocolia smiled coldly and pointed to a screen on the side, which showed a countdown timer:
“When the countdown above ends, the Honkai energy reactor I’m using to spread Honkai Energy will explode directly. At that time, the Honkai Energy inside will directly leak into all of Nagazora City! No need to wait, this Honkai eruption will arrive in the blink of an eye.”
“You wanted to stop my plan, didn’t you? Then try to stop it! As long as you can make it in time, hahaha!”
“Well then, I’ll be looking forward to your performance. Goodbye… oh, I don’t think we’ll meet again~”
