Pray and become a magical girl

Chapter 87 Chapter 86 ~ Crisis in the Capital (Subscribe!)
Li Ke returned to the cell. At this moment, he felt like he was dreaming. It was so wonderful, but the stinging feeling from the nails digging into his palms told him that this was real!

Li Ke began to look forward to it, and was looking forward to the next few days, looking forward to getting out soon, looking forward to taking the test again, looking forward to becoming a hero, looking forward to fighting alongside her!

Until the energy in the body suddenly increased, the skin and flesh were torn apart by the self inside, and the dream was shattered.

Ah - I can never be a hero, because my true self is the opposite of a hero - a beast.

The man in black robe looked at the black tower in the distance. It was one of his clones, and he came here to open the curtain of the grand event.

There was no audience around him, but he was like an elegant conductor who took out a baton from somewhere.

Excitement and madness made his patchwork face even more distorted. "Let's kick off our grand event here! Get up and play the first song immediately! Please listen to the symphony, the death of a hero!"

……

Darkness lingers on the second underground floor of the Hero Association, which is where super-powered criminals are temporarily detained. Generally speaking, after their crimes are sentenced, they will be transferred to the prison in the north.

So there won't be too many superpowered criminals locked up here, but today...

Well, it can’t be said that there are too many, but it’s like a boys’ dormitory filled with people’s heads.

Yi Ke Luobo squatted in the room, constantly glancing at the two dormitory managers outside the iron windows. The days of super-powered criminals in the detention room of the Hero Association were like heaven before they were transferred to the prison.

Not only are there luxurious private rooms for single persons, but there are also televisions, game consoles and other entertainment facilities to soothe their emotions.

But now the situation is special. A room that can accommodate up to four people has been converted into a room for sixteen.

Similarly, there is only one TV and game console, and there is also the concern that super-powered criminals may fight over them, so they must all be taken away, and this problem will be perfectly solved.

"Senior, isn't what we are doing too inhumane?" A young hero looked through the iron window at the sixteen people lying neatly on the ground.

The experienced hero beside him pulled him over, "What about the Inhumans? Do you have a way to remove the body enhancers from their bodies?

"When necessary, we can treat superpowered criminals as monsters. This is a new rule applied for by our association and passed by the federation. We can do this in any country."

The experienced hero suddenly leaned close to the young hero's ear and whispered, "Do you think our association doesn't want to move them all away earlier? We can't.

"These have all been injected with body enhancers. The probability of them turning into beasts is much higher than that of normal superpowered criminals who have awakened their superpowers. We must not stimulate them."

The young hero was confused. On the one hand, he was told not to stimulate them, but on the other hand, he kept them locked up in such a depressing place.

"Then why do we treat them like this, Senior?"

The experienced hero shrugged and explained, "You know the herd effect? ​​If you shave all the wool on a sheep, it may scream and go crazy because it feels like an outlier. But if you shave all the wool on the flock of sheep, there will be no outliers in the group, and they will be psychologically balanced.

"And those imprisoned here are all emotionally stable. Those who knew they had broken the law and immediately transformed into beasts have long been—"

At this point, he made a gesture of wiping his neck with a knife.

The young hero nodded in understanding, while the experienced hero nodded with satisfaction, "I understand. After this patrol, go to the duty room and take a rest.

"And Xiao Wang, let me tell you, this mission requires little work, is less dangerous, and yet the pay is pretty good. If you hadn't called me senior, I wouldn't have taken you on this mission."

"Yeah, yes, yes." The young hero smiled wryly.

It is impolite to use your cell phone to play music out loud, unless it is someone you are following.

The experienced hero was about to say something, but he felt that the melody and singing were very familiar, and then his eyes lit up, "Are you watching the live broadcast of Yi Ran's performance today?"

The young hero was stunned at first, then he was excited to find someone who shared the same interests as him, "Senior, do you like Yi Ran too?"

"Who in China doesn't like Yiran? Bring your phone closer so I can take a look." The experienced hero moved the bench over.

"That's not right. Senior, if you were a fan of Yi Ning, would you not know that she is performing tonight?" The young hero frowned and asked.

"I was going to watch the replay. After all, I was still on a mission."

"Then why..."

"You've already taken it out, there's no harm in taking a look."

The two of them fell silent, quietly admiring the glittering figure of the girl on the stage.

They joined the live broadcast room midway, and the first song "Light" ended quickly.

“This song ‘Light’ is dedicated to everyone who came to watch our performance tonight, and also to everyone who is watching the live broadcast. I hope you will like it!”

"oh--!!!"

The scene was instantly filled with cheers that could blow the entire roof off, and even the emotions of the two heroes who were on duty far away in the capital were aroused.

Cheng Yiran waved her left hand to greet the fans, and the magical girls naturally responded to the fans' cheers with a smile.

The audience gradually quieted down. Cheng Yiran said, "Everyone knows that this is a collaboration between me and Blooming Flowers. As a senior, I will introduce my lovely juniors to you all!..."

"Ah - I really envy those guys in Chengdu. They can see Yi Ran's performances every month. I wonder when Yi Ran will come to Beijing to perform." The young hero suddenly said, with envy revealed in his tone.

The experienced hero continued to stare at the screen without blinking, "Yes, it is. It's almost time."

"what?"

"It's Heroes' Day. At that time, our capital will hold a grand event on the same scale as the Spring Festival Gala, and the performers will still be the same as last year."

The young hero's eyes lit up, "Really? Then I must get the tickets this time!"

There were no patrolling footsteps in the corridor, only sparse conversations in the cells. As psychics, the two heroes could hear them clearly in the duty room.

However, the next moment, all the sounds disappeared, and the experienced hero frowned and looked into the dark corridor.

"Senior, what's wrong?" The young hero also withdrew his thoughts and looked over there.

"Hey buddy, why aren't you talking? Are you lonely or doing some handicraft? Haha~"

The joke was repeated again, and the experienced hero let down his guard, "Nothing, just keep watching."

However, the screams that followed pierced their eardrums.

“Help! Help—!”

It wasn't just that cell, more heart-wrenching voices were heard. "Let me out, there's a monster!"

The experienced hero rushed out immediately. The special cell doors used to detain super-powered criminals were not damaged immediately, but he knew that this was the calm before the storm.

"Bam—!"

The iron door was completely opened, and a mass of flesh and blood was thrown out. It was a torn human body.

"Bang..." Iron doors were constantly broken open by brute force, just like a prison release, all criminals were freed at this moment.

"Senior, something happened..."

The young hero rushed over quickly, but did not continue speaking because the scene before him made the words he wanted to say get stuck in his throat and his face turned pale.

The blood-red eyes have a certain human shape, and such features are prominent enough to explain their identity - humanoid monsters!

"Let's go." The experienced hero whispered first, then shouted loudly, "Let's go! Go up and inform the president!"

"But what are you going to do, senior?" The young man yelled back, fear filling his heart and he could no longer control his emotions.

"No one is here to cover our retreat. Do you want to catch the entire association off guard? Besides, I'm a B-class hero. You don't need to worry about me!"

Having said that, if the young hero still doesn't understand the pros and cons, he doesn't deserve to hold a hero certificate.

Gritting his teeth, he turned around, took a step with all his strength, and frantically clicked the elevator button. The young hero had never felt that the elevator door closed so slowly, and how stupid it was to install only an elevator here without stairs.

The younger generation who would hold him back left, and the experienced hero solemnly faced the enemy who was "like a dark cloud pressing down on the city and threatening to destroy it." However, the good news was that the space in the passage was limited, and these strange beasts would not rush in all at once.

"Hero Sequence 14381, Explosion Flame begins the cleanup of the alien beasts!"

The friction between his fists produced flames, and a fire dragon spurted out from the palms of his hands.

……

The performance venue of Blooming Flowers and Shining Star in Chengdu was still bustling with people. Cheng Yiran finished introducing the juniors, and the magical girls responded sweetly to the audience's enthusiasm. So here, the first warm-up was over.

The girl in black paced back and forth on the stage, as if showing herself today to all the audience.

"The second song is 'Run Towards the Skyline'. Please ask the music teacher to prepare the accompaniment. Let's go! Run towards the skyline!"

"Oh!!!" The cheering sticks in the fans' hands were waved, leaving afterimages.

It seemed that if they worked harder, the idols on the stage would respond to their expectations. Cheng Yiran's expression suddenly froze, but she soon smiled again.
-
Have you started yet? Then let me show you the results of the special training.

……

The young hero stumbled out of the elevator and ran into a group of people, led by their president, the S-class hero Feishuang Jianxian.

Unlike her usual professional attire, she now looks ethereal in white Han costume.

Shen Xinmeng looked at the young hero, frowning slightly, then remembered who he was and asked, "You are the magician on duty down there with Explosion Flame. Where is Explosion Flame? What happened down there?"

"Senior Bakuyan is delaying the enemy down there. President, let's go down and rescue him!" Seeing the reinforcements, the magician breathed a sigh of relief, but his tone was still a little anxious.

"Yes, of course." Shen Xinmeng turned to the people behind her and said, "Taking the elevator down is too slow, and with so many of us, we can't take all the elevators in one trip.

"If a building is gone, it can be rebuilt, but if a person is gone, it is really gone. So, the spirit of the land is in your hands."

The brown-haired man nodded with a smile and said, "Of course we have to follow the president's orders, and I have wanted to dismantle the association for a long time."

"..."×N
Well~Di Ling was a member of the demolition team before the Super Power Era, and my biggest hobby is demolishing schools.

The earth spirit stretched out his hands into the void, activated his supernatural power, and the earth rolled, tearing a hole in the earth himself.

"Everyone get ready, jump." Shen Xinmeng was the first to enter the crack torn open by the earth spirit, with icy dust flying behind him.

The other heroes followed their leader closely, landing like shooting stars next to their companions who needed help.

“Huff—Huff—” Baoyan had already suffered a lot of wounds on his body, but looking at the almost unchanged number of strange beasts in front of him, his face looked very ugly.

There is no doubt that he was overconfident. Although the alien beasts had limited space to move, they were alien beasts and they would not care about the impact of their actions on their own kind. They would just squeeze through as long as they could.

Just as Baoyan was preparing for a desperate fight, the "sky" was opened.

Looking up, he saw reinforcements falling from the sky, and Baoyan felt relieved.

However, while he was stunned, a strange beast suddenly pounced on him, but was instantly frozen when it was still two meters away from him.

The surrounding cold air cooled the exploding flames, and the sudden drop in temperature froze his wounds that were constantly oozing blood.

Even though an existence with attributes that counteracted his appeared, Baoyan felt unusually at ease.

"President..."

"Well, you've worked hard, go and have a rest."

Shen Xinmeng's icy eyes swept across the dark masses of nation-destroying beasts on the opposite side. With a wave of her sleeves, the beast in the front was frozen into an ice sculpture.

The fighting space is still limited, and the earth spirits only provide a direct passage for the heroes to reach here, without expanding the space here.

Unless he jumped into the strange beasts, but then it would not be the strange beasts that surrounded them, but he would be the only one surrounded by all the strange beasts.

Shen Xinmeng naturally realized this, and killing like this was too slow.

"Everyone take a step back." Shen Xinmeng ordered, and then took out a blue three-dimensional cube from his sleeve.

This is very similar to the one that the Mechanical King gave to Cheng Yiran. Although the effects are similar, they come from different superpowers.

"Subspace, expand." Nearly a thousand nation-destroying beasts disappeared in an instant, and along with them everything in front of the heroes disappeared.

This is a prop used by the association to temporarily seal the apocalyptic monster. Its essence is the subspace covering the main space and extending it internally.

Shen Xinmeng's purpose is certainly not to seal them, but to provide more fighting space for the heroes.

As she was about to be the first to step into the subspace, she told the people behind her, "After entering the subspace, we can fully display our abilities, and the same goes for the beasts, so - be careful. And magician, do some emergency work on the explosion first, the logistics department will be here soon."
