Apocalypse, then transforming into a magical girl

Xiao Lü, cooperating with Xia Zhaozhao, sighed, and icy magic quickly condensed.

She began searching for heads and limbs that still retained human consciousness and expressed a desire to die.

Freeze, shatter, freeze, shatter.

Xia Zhaozhao cooperated with her through tears, as ice shards and bits of meat flew together.

The continuous collapse of consciousness impacted the fleshy ball's sea of ​​consciousness, rendering it unable to mount any effective counterattack.

The monstrous consciousness and primal instincts of the deformed child inside the fleshy ball roared madly, trying to control the remaining limbs to fight back, but the parts that still retained human will were also desperately resisting and interfering.

Human will, in the final moments of life, demonstrates an overwhelming and incredible resilience.

At the top of the fleshy ball, Li Ding's foolish face gazed at the chaotic scene below.

He couldn't comprehend the thoughts of pain, despair, and relief that flashed through his mind, nor did he know what death was.

But since he hit "Mom" before, it's only right that "Mom" punishes him, right?

His only remaining line of reasoning led him to this conclusion.

So he followed suit, trying his best to control the small part of his organization that he could still barely manage, and looked at the "mother" floating in mid-air, exuding a cold aura.

"Mom...be gentle..." he mumbled, as if he were pleading.

Looking at Li Ding's foolish, fearful, and aggrieved face, Xiao Lü struggled to carry out her actions.

She gathered most of her remaining magic power and condensed it into an ice spear in front of her that was even larger than before!

"……it's over."

The enormous ice spear pierced deeply into Li Ding's head!

"Bang—!!!"

The ice spear exploded upon contact! Extreme icy energy erupted inside the fleshy ball.

Li Ding's head, along with a large group of monsters below him, was instantly blasted into countless tiny ice crystals and black powder!

This fragile balance, built upon Li Ding's distorted nervous system, has completely collapsed.

After suffering severe injuries and losing its core ligaments, the various parts of the fleshy ball emitted mournful cries of resentment, rapidly disintegrating and losing its vitality, turning into pools of nauseating black mucus.

However, amidst this collapse, a small core composed entirely of grayish-white monstrous tissue—the very body of the deformed child—suffered to maintain its form!

It severed its connection with the massive body, and with its last bit of strength, lunged toward the window!

"Don't you dare run—!! I'll kill you!!!"

Xia Zhaozhao keenly sensed the malice that was so different from the rest of the body and recognized that this was the true form of the monster!

She instinctively wanted to draw her sword and jump out of the window.

However, Xiao Lü used her last bit of strength to hold onto Xia Zhaozhao's arm tightly.

"Zhaozhao! Don't chase after her!"

"Let me go! I can't let it get away!" Xia Zhaozhao struggled, her eyes red with grief.

"It's pouring rain outside! And there are those monsters down there! If we rush out in our current state, we'll just be throwing our lives away! We can't win!" Xiao Lü shouted with all her might, trying to wake Xia Zhaozhao, who was blinded by anger.

"Could it be...could it just get away like this? All those people I know..." Xia Zhaozhao's voice was choked with sobs.

"...Some of the ice spear shards from earlier splashed onto it." Little Green panted, sensing the faint magical energy remaining within its body.

"I...I can roughly sense the direction it fled in."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhaozhao's struggling strength finally diminished.

Her magic power had been completely depleted after the outburst, and she was now truly at her limit. Just maintaining the transformation made her feel dizzy and her body swayed precariously.

She released the greatsword from her hand, letting it dissipate into specks of light.

Then, as if all her strength had been drained, her legs went weak, and she slumped to the floor, deactivating her transformation and reverting to her ordinary appearance as a girl in a baggy T-shirt.

Only the sound of rain and the sound of the inactive monster organization dissolving remained.

"We... survived."

"But...they..." Xia Zhaozhao raised her head, tears welling up again, her voice choked with sobs, "Aunt Zhou...Old Man Sun...this is the first time...the first time I've seen someone I know...die in front of me..."

Little Green looked at her silently, unsure how to comfort her. She turned her head and looked at the slowly dissolving, lifeless remains of the monster in the room.

Suddenly, he realized something was wrong.

"Zhao Zhao, look!" She poked Xia Zhao Zhao, who was still sobbing.

Xia Zhaozhao looked in the direction he pointed and saw several human heads among the remains that were gradually turning into black slime, and the dissolution process seemed to be particularly slow.

And... their eyes seemed to still retain a last, faint glimmer of light?

Aunt Zhou's head creased, and with difficulty, she managed a familiar, kind smile. She looked at Xia Zhaozhao with gentle eyes, then at Xiao Lü.

Then, the last glimmer of light completely disappeared, and the head dissolved rapidly, merging into the black mud on the ground.

Xiao Wu's head turned towards the two of them, revealing an apologetic smile, as if apologizing for the previous attack, before he lost his last breath.

"Waaah... I'm sorry... I promise I'll never yell and scream while playing games at night again... Waaah..."

Xia Zhaozhao looked at Old Man Sun's gray head, which still had a large chunk of tissue attached and was dissolving more slowly, and apologized, sobbing uncontrollably.

Old Sun's head twitched slightly, his eyelids trembling with difficulty.

His cloudy eyes slowly turned toward Xia Zhaozhao, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a relieved smile.

With his last ounce of strength, he mustered his severely damaged vocal cords and produced a hoarse, weak sound:

"I must...live...on..."

As the last syllable fell, the light in Old Man Sun's eyes completely disappeared, and then, along with the tissue beneath him, it melted away like ice and snow, turning into a pool of black, sticky fluid.

Little Green could clearly sense that this slime was different from the clustered black nematodes. It no longer emitted that unsettling aura, but had completely lost its vitality, turning into a useless pile of dead matter.

Those he knew or didn't know, those who were caught up in this undeserved disaster, will have their last traces of existence completely disappear from this world.

The immediate threat in the room seemed to have been eliminated, and the heavy mental pressure had disappeared, but Little Green did not revert to her transformation.

She turned around and looked at Xia Zhaozhao, who was clutching her clothes and sobbing beside her, and for a moment she didn't know what to say. After all, comforting people had never been her forte.

She silently channeled a small amount of magic to create a cool breeze around Xia Zhaozhao, dispelling the stuffiness and making her feel slightly more comfortable.

Xia Zhaozhao's sobs gradually subsided. Finally, although her body was still trembling slightly, she casually wiped the tears from her face.

"...Let's go loot the supplies. After all...we have to survive."

"Yes. Including... their share."

The neighbors, affected by mental pollution and confused as they went downstairs, were completely oblivious to the possibility of locking their doors. There must be many unclaimed resources in this building.

Although Xia Zhaozhao's body was still twitching, she stood up unsteadily.

Before leaving, she turned around and cast one last glance at the devastated battlefield.

"The weak version of myself from the past is dead."

Although she spoke these words haltingly and with a heavy nasal tone, Xiao Lü didn't complain this time.

"Let's go."
