"You learn first, I'll handle this weirdo..."

Yu Zhi stood up from the table, arcs of electricity flashed across her body, and she immediately began her transformation.

Huangyi raised her head. As she transformed, she became more sensitive to auras and instinctively sensed the difference in that strange person.

With a slight frown, she left the place and headed towards the location where the aura had originated.

As the power of lightning spread, Huangyi accelerated her movement, which also made her more acutely aware of the direction from which the aura was coming from.

"Something feels off, let's get there as fast as we can."

As soon as this thought arose, Huangyi took a step and landed on the rooftop of a tall building. The moment he stepped on it, time around him slowed down, and purple arcs of electricity trailed behind him as he flew over several tall buildings.

Cangyi is right. With Huangyi's current strength, there is no need for her to be obsessed with flying. She can easily fly several kilometers with just a little effort. Although she will fall down after a while, it is enough for her needs.

Half a minute later, Huang Yi stood on the high-rise building, frowning as he looked at the scene below:

"No... have they already left?"

Her body flashed again, and in an instant, the nearest sewer cover was moved open and closed, and Huang Yi was already at the spot where Duanmu Mo had been, looking at the surrounding scene.

Looking at the already very thin yellow mist, Huangyi nodded knowingly:

"Burning your stomach...?"

In Huangyi's perception, this aura was fleeting here, and it would be difficult for other magical girls to find it.

There's no other way.

Huangyi closed his eyes, reached out and touched the wall, and an electric arc spread out in that instant.

—On the road, some pedestrians or business owners using electronic products suddenly felt their screens freeze for a moment, and then returned to normal.

In the past, when she first started using this ability, Huangyi would uncontrollably cause large-scale power outages to those within her perception range. But now, with the training given to her by Cangyi, she can control these powers very well.

No one paid any attention to this small pause; they continued to focus on their own affairs, completely unaware of what was happening in the sewer beneath their feet.

"...Found it!"

Huangyi opened his eyes and sensed the location of that aura.

Her body flashed again and disappeared from the spot.

. . . . . .

—The place where the Gluttonous Monster is located is in the warehouse a short distance from here.

Huangyi pushed open the door, her movements not rough. This warehouse might still be needed by someone else, and she didn't want it to be destroyed in the process of fighting.

She looked around. There was no light in the room. The light from the window shone in, but it only reflected a lot of accumulated dust, making the warehouse environment even darker.

Huangyi glanced around, then looked ahead and said calmly:

"—Come out, you know that this level of concealment can't escape the feeling of a magical girl, right?"

"...Sizzle—"

A deep voice then rang out, and a figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

Saliva dripped down, leaving corrosive streaks on the ground.

The Gluttonous Beast appeared in Huangyi's sight, but it looked somewhat different from what she remembered. Its thin skin was covered with bluish-green scales, and countless mouths opened and closed, spreading a corrosive aura.

Huang Yi frowned and looked around.

Around them, the combatants were also corrupted, their bodies oozing yellow pus and blood, emitting irrational growls.

"...This aura...is it from that giant serpent?"

Surrounded by those strange people, he showed no sign of tension. However, Huangyi sensed something and suddenly looked around.

"What kind of gaze is this...?"

"Ow!"

The gluttonous creature let out a low, raucous growl, its two eyes protruding from its mouth filled with irrational madness.

"No, I'm not hungry anymore..."

"—What is that?"

Seeing the strange man's face filled with happiness, Huang Yi's eyes flashed with disgust.

"Together......"

Gluttonous opened its mouth and roared again, spreading its monstrous aura and a corrosive scent toward Blazing Wing.

"..."

Huang Yi frowned. Just as the gas from the explosion approached her, time slowed down. She looked around at the combatants rushing towards her at the same time, and her movements became extremely sluggish.

With his hand on the scabbard at his waist, Huangyi swung his sword, sword energy shooting out from the blade, eliminating the corrosive gas in front of him, and precisely slicing through the body of the Explosive Eater.

Her figure transformed into lightning, flashing around each combatant.

Zheng—

Cangyi's swordsmanship was honed through countless reincarnations, so she knew very well that Yuzhi didn't have that time, and Huangyi was going to take a completely different path from Cangyi.

Therefore, Cangyi only needed to teach her the simplest slashing techniques, how to slash most efficiently and quickly, and what not to do in battle. These basic things were enough for Huangyi.

—With each instantaneous movement, she severed large numbers of combatants, leaving only their bodies slowly rising into the air.

There were no thrilling battles, only magical girls overwhelming these monsters.

Time resumed, and Huangyi reappeared in the same spot, electric arcs still flashing on his body.

She wiped the blood off the knife and gently sheathed it.

Chapter 370: The Living Dead

--Snapped!

The combatants' bodies fell to the ground, precisely cleaved in two, while as Huangyi sheathed his sword, the Glutton's body was also struck by the sword energy.

Her emotions remained largely unchanged. Huangyi showed no mercy to the strange man, looking around as she continued to search for the source of that gaze.

"Forehead......"

But soon, a series of noises drew her attention again. Huangyi looked ahead and found that the Gluttonous's body had begun to move. Although it was split in two, it was still able to move. The two sides of its body twitched slightly, and its internal organs and brain flowed out all at once.

"What......"

Huangyi opened his eyes wide and found that the combatants around him were in the same situation, cut in half at the waist, yet they also began to crawl.

"Such amazing vitality..."

Fortunately, she was experienced, so although she was surprised, she did not lose her composure too much.

Huang Yi frowned, drew his blade again, and disappeared from the spot.

. . . . . .

—They were completely killed. Whether they were monsters or combatants, their bodies were cut into several pieces and burned by electric current. No matter how hard they tried, they could not be restored.

However, the scene here is extremely disgusting, and the smell of blood is hard to get rid of.

Huang Yi silently apologized to the staff here, and his gaze swept around again, but he still found nothing.

Even after using lightning to amplify his senses, he still couldn't find any trace, and Huangyi could only conclude that it was an illusion.

After glancing around, Huangyi left the place.

The warehouse fell silent again, the dusty light shining on the corpses, filling the air with a thick aura of death.

...Soon, Huangyi's body reappeared in the warehouse. He looked around, frowned, and said:

"Cangyi... still no one."

"If not, then leave."

Cangyi appeared beside him and spoke. Huangyi nodded and then truly left the place.

—And this time, as a dark shadow slithered out from the corner, Duanmu Mo, in his monstrous form, emerged from the shadow and stretched:

"There has been progress, but it's still not enough."

The only advantage of the monster form over the knight form is that it doesn't require the monster's energy transformation, so it won't be detected by the magical girls. In addition, Duanmu Mo's own stealth ability allows him to remain completely undetected.

Standing before the carcass of the gluttonous creature, Duanmu Mo looked at its gruesome state and shook his head with a tsk-tsk expression.

"It only calmed down after being hacked to pieces like that, it's really interesting."

Yuzhi would probably tell everyone about this as soon as she got back, but unfortunately, she was wrong about one thing: the strange man and the combatant didn't have any terrifying vitality. On the contrary, they were already dead.

If there is a suitable word to describe it, it would be "living dead".

The corrosive power is highly infectious, much like zombies in movies and games, causing them to die instantly but still allowing them to move freely.

Duanmu Mo raised his hand, aimed at the corpse, and pulled it. A pale green orb of light floated out of the corpse and returned to the card.

Only Duanmu Mo was able to stop Explosive Food in the sewers and bring it back to the guy's base.

—That's why Duanmu Mo saw what Gluttony had done after returning here: it, or rather it, released a corrosive aura, and in no time all the surrounding combatants were infected and turned into those pus-filled, blood-dripping creatures.

That scene surprised Duanmu Mo. It wasn't the first time he had seen such corrosive power. He had thought it could only corrode objects, but who knew it would have such an effect on the human body.

However, Yuhi had also fallen victim to this attack several times. The corrosive claws injured her, and she even inhaled the mist completely before exhaling it as golden flames.

Reflecting on the events of the past, Duanmu Mo seemed lost in thought.

At that time, the evening sun had not yet awakened the power of the golden flame and had suffered from it before. It was almost killed by the corrosive attack and even planned to self-destruct to take everyone down with it. Clearly, the evening sun at that time could not withstand this power.

...But not long after, Xi Ri became incredibly fierce after awakening the power of the Golden Flame, not caring even when corroded to the point of being a bloody mess. Moreover, Duanmu Mo could also sense the intense life force contained within the Golden Flame, a flame that was precisely the nemesis of this power.

"Vitality and death...that's interesting."

Seeing the bloodshed before him, Duanmu Mo vanished from his spot, leaving only one thought flashing through his mind.

"In that case, the schedule for dealing with the power of the past should be accelerated."

A dark shadow moved, and silence returned, but the pungent stench of blood still lingered.

. . . . . .

"—In summary, that's the situation."

On the table in the afternoon, Yuzhi watched the two sisters, Shenwu and Shinobu, return from their patrol and told them about the enemies she had encountered that day.
