Instead, they sent Maginus straight ahead.
Although the gangs had some connections with the coalition forces, they always avoided contact whenever possible. The soldiers from other places and the local bandits were like two separate lines, clearly distinct.
The main reason is that the War Axe Gang members are chasing this fat guy from an unknown gang. If this fat guy is also a member of a big gang, then the soldiers are essentially on the side of one of the gangs.
This isn't a good thing; it's better to let them fight it out themselves.
With the officer's tacit approval, all the soldiers pretended not to see anything. Maginos's gamble paid off. She easily crossed the blockade, with only the Tomahawk gang members chasing after her, instead of being pursued by the Allied forces.
After they left, the soldiers who had been watching the commotion turned back to continue observing the encirclement.
The girl seemed to have escaped unharmed, but because so many people had seen the life-size portrait of Maginot, some soldiers and hidden observers eventually noticed something amiss.
They searched their minds for the source of this asymmetry, and finally someone's gaze fell on the life-size portrait placed on the table to the side, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck them.
Superimpose the two portraits of the fat man who ran past them onto the two portraits of Maginus. The soldier who had been running close to the girl gasped and whispered his report to his superior:
"Captain, why does that fat guy who just ran past look about the same height as Maginus Imperius in the portrait?"
The squad leader, who also felt a sense of déjà vu, realized this after being reminded. He ran to the table, unfolded the portrait, and held it up. When the figures overlapped, his expression changed drastically.
The others also noticed his actions, and those who had doubts realized what was going on and immediately chased after them in the direction they had left.
At the same time, someone lit a red signal flare, issuing the most urgent notification. This color signal flare meant that they had discovered traces of Maginot.
But before the soldiers on this side of the street could catch up, some people eager to steal the credit suddenly appeared and caused trouble.
Since Maginus couldn't escape the capital, and someone had discovered her whereabouts, shouldn't the credit be shared?
Without external pressure, the federal army, composed of various factions, saw wealthy young men who came to gain experience take credit for Maginus, which slightly delayed the siege of Maginus.
Even so, quite a few people were already heading towards her.
"Whoosh whoosh"
The girl ran, panting slightly. Although her stamina had greatly increased after awakening her spiritual power, she still had moments of exhaustion. However, only the neighborhood manager who had lost his younger brother was still following behind the Battle Axe Gang members.
Protector of flowers...
Upon entering the slum area, Maginus noticed a shadow in front of her, or rather, a light rising from behind her. She turned to look at the sky, where a bright red signal flare shone.
She was discovered as expected, but luckily she had already run far enough away.
Unable to shake off the last person, the girl continued moving in the direction of her goal, barely maintaining a distance thanks to her familiarity with the slums, and even managing to widen the gap slightly.
"Damn it!"
The neighborhood supervisor watched as Maginus squeezed through a narrow gap in a house—a gap that even a fat man, no, couldn't fit through—and realizing something was wrong, he refused to give up and instead took a longer route to chase after the girl.
In the extremely chaotic environment of the slums, she became thin and weak, able to traverse paths that normal people could not.
About five minutes later, Maginus arrived at a patch of wasteland. Panting, she burrowed into the thicket of grass, which was high enough to cover her bent-over body. Behind her, she heard the angry shouts of the steward:
"You bastard, get out here right now, I'm going to shove my dick into your pussy!"
Touching the corners of her upturned lips, the lingering pain in her chest from the blows slowly fueled the cruelty and sadism within the girl's heart; her eyes shone brightly in the darkness.
It wasn't an adjective; a genuine glimmer of light flashed. Had the light not been faint and its back to the manager, it might have been discovered by now.
The tree is at a 30-degree angle to the boulder, about 12 meters away...
The tall grass swayed in the wind. Taking advantage of the fact that her pursuers couldn't see her, Maginus located the spot where she had buried her magic sword using three points. She wanted to go there and dig up the weapon, but then she found that the wind had stopped.
"Hahaha, great god of thieves, thank you for your help! Even the wind has stopped, let's see how you run now!"
Her arrogant voice echoed across the wilderness. To ensure she had enough time to dig, the wounds on her wrists reopened under her guidance. The life force she had stored up through eating and killing over the past few days turned into a red mist that slowly and rapidly spread along the ground.
The red mist was somewhat conspicuous in the darkness. Noticing something was wrong, the manager fanned some smoke into his nose, and after confirming that he was alright, continued searching for Maginus in the tall grass.
The administrator wasn't worried that the girl was a spellcaster; if she were, she would have already unleashed some kind of flame.
As the strong winds subsided, the smoke, under Maginus's deliberate control, was difficult to dissipate and quickly enveloped the administrators in a thick fog. She also deliberately placed the excavation point not in the center of the red fog, but on its edge.
While the manager couldn't see anything, she ran to the burial site and dug with all her might with both hands, while also keeping an eye on the manager's every move.
The members of the Battle Axe Gang jumped out of the red mist, circled it halfway, and followed their first instinct toward the center of the mist, carefully watching for any possible attack from Maginus.
Unfortunately, he didn't find any trace of the girl even after walking to the other side. He then realized that the red mist was not centered on her. So he carefully moved through the red mist, making sure that Maginus could not escape, while waiting for his underlings to catch up or for the red mist to dissipate.
What he didn't know was that Maginus had already half-pulled and half-dug out of the ground and taken a powerful magical weapon from it, still thinking that she only had a small dagger in her hand.
Unwrapping the cloth strip covering the sword sheath, the girl took a deep breath and drew her protector from the sheath. Her red eyes, gleaming, stared at the administrator through the mist, her body heating up with excitement.

Chapter 55 Drawing
Kill! Kill!
Maginus focused her attention entirely on the lone, currently shrouded in red mist, the neighborhood manager, her hands gripping her longsword so tightly they were almost bleeding.
She activated her dynamic vision to its maximum, slowing down the burly man's rapid running figure as she observed his movement trajectory. The girl then strolled slowly to the path the manager was sure to take, stepping forward with one foot in preparation for a sprint.
She had to eliminate her enemy completely in one move.
"laugh"
A small amount of scarlet mist was inhaled by the girl, and the surrounding red mist began to shrink due to her breathing, increasing the concentration in a certain area and severely obscuring the administrator's vision.
He was completely unaware of this, only noticing that his field of vision seemed to have shrunk. He cautiously stepped forward, unaware that the girl was about to launch an attack.
The administrator continued forward as usual, and Maginus waited until he was within her attack range before striking with lightning speed!
A whooshing sound suddenly rang out as the girl sprinted towards the enemy, her protector trembling slightly as she sliced through the air.
The administrator only saw two glowing red dots moving up and down in the red mist. A moment later, two beams of light appeared in front of him. Only when the moving luminous objects got closer did he realize that they were Maginus's eyes.
Just in time!
Unfazed by the girl's smile, the bully revealed a similar sinister grin, drew his iron-clad wooden club from his waist, and lashed it at the sword blade, confident in the sturdiness of his weapon.
Of course, this confidence is based on the premise that the opponent is using an ordinary weapon. In other words, when this iron-clad wooden stick collides with a magical weapon, there is only one outcome: it will be cut in half!
The girl swung her hands forcefully, using her longsword as a greatsword due to her height, and the sound produced by the vibration of the air became even more piercing.
The bully laughed as he tapped the sword of the protector of the flower with his stick, imagining it knocking Maginus away again.
Unfortunately, the scene he had envisioned did not appear. Instead, the protector easily sliced through the fine iron on the surface of the wooden stick, cut off half of the stick, and then slashed the blade into the bully's slightly outstretched neck.
A head was sent flying high into the air by the force of the longsword. His smile froze on his face. Before he even realized what had happened, the girl had killed him completely. Blood kept gushing out from the severed neck.
The blood didn't touch the ground; it had already transformed into a crimson aura, which, along with the remaining mist, surged wildly into the girl's slightly emaciated body, rapidly restoring her depleted life force and bringing her back to her most normal state.
"Hahaha!"
The injuries from being hit by the bully and slamming into the wall were rapidly healed by her life force, but the pain intensified. Combined with the irrepressible excitement from the killing, Maginus laughed out loud.
Bathed in blood and red mist, she exuded the aura of a mad demon, and her petite figure made her appear even more eerie. Her hair, under the influence of her immense life force, had regrowed until it reached almost to her shoulders.
After laughing until she was almost out of breath, Maginus's mood calmed down again, but her expression was hard to recover for a moment. With a malicious smile, she left in front of the dust-covered corpse.
The girl didn't know if the manager was a professional, but the life force she obtained from the corpse was enough for her to go without food or water for the next ten days, and with what she had accumulated before, it would probably last for about fifteen days.
Next…
She looked up at the mass grave, then turned her gaze to the slums, rushed into an alley, and headed straight for the sewer entrance in the neighborhood, even imagining herself being chased from behind.
It's just auditory hallucination now, but that might change later.
Arriving at a sewer with its exit almost completely blocked by garbage, Maginus pushed aside some trash and entered through a narrow gap. The intense stench, which seemed to carry poisonous fumes, made her feel dizzy.
Suppressing her nausea, she immediately walked deeper into the sewers, trying to leave as quickly as possible. She found a relatively clean spot and sat down to catch her breath, the smile on her face disappearing as the excitement of the killing subsided.
The immense life force within her body allows her to recover her strength more quickly, but it cannot be directly converted into physical strength—at least not now. Therefore, she will still feel tired and needs to rest.
Just as she sat down on the slightly sticky ground, Maginus suddenly stood up again, looking calmly at the entrance she had come from. There were barking dogs and other people talking coming from there.
The barking of dogs... Is it from a professional like a bounty hunter or a ranger?
These two professions excel at tracking, able to pursue enemies through the observation of their canine companions or themselves. Clearly, the scent left by Maginot was enough for them to give chase.
Without taking a break, the girl lingered and quickly ventured into the sewers, hoping the stench would lessen the pressure of her pursuers.
Not long after they left, several hunters and a large number of soldiers entered the sewers, looking quite disheveled due to the clogging garbage.
The hunter's hounds and wolves pressed their noses to the ground and sniffed incessantly, occasionally sticking out their tongues as if to vomit, their expressions suggesting they were about to die.
Their owner quickly stroked and comforted them, while taking out some fragrant items from his pocket to prevent the animals from fainting from the stench.
Even though Maginus was currently plagued by bad luck, the stench still affected the hounds' judgment, and they began to diverge, heading down different paths. The people tracking the girl briefly discussed it and decided to split into two groups.
The fact that no one realized a high-ranking gang member had died at the hands of a young girl meant that Maginus was no match for anyone in the group was also a concern.
Indeed, that was the case. She was already struggling to deal with just one gang member. If she were to encounter these elite Allied soldiers who came looking for her, she could take down one by surprise, but two would be left to die.
……
Knowing that the enemy would catch up sooner or later, the girl wasn't too anxious. Not feeling much emotion, she thought carefully and tried to find a way to survive, while slowly walking through the sewers to allow her strength to recover more quickly.
According to the map in her mind, she found herself out of the slum area and back on the commercial street.
"It's almost morning. Can I use the crowds in the shopping street as cover?"
The thought naturally came to Maginos's mind; she didn't even care much about her own life, let alone those people.
Chapter 56 Struggling On
Peeking sideways at the corner leading to the sewer exit, Maginus saw about three soldiers on the road above the exit. The three soldiers were drowsy, their heads bobbing up and down, their perception of the outside world extremely weakened.
Instead of rushing out of the sewer, she sat down with her protector in her arms and fell into a light sleep. The half of the life force she had just absorbed turned into mist and spread out, obscuring everything around her.
"Damn it, how come there's such a thick fog here, and it's red too? Everyone be careful, it could very well be caused by some kind of monster."
After more than ten minutes, the girl woke up from her sleep. After hearing the enemy's voice, she adjusted her state by breathing, turned around, bent over and made a starting motion, put her hands on the ground and exerted all her strength, concentrating her main strength in her legs.
dong dong dong...
Her heart was pounding faster, and Maginot could feel her blood surging through her veins. As the veins all over her body bulged again, she decisively rushed towards the sewer exit!
With her feet splashing through the muddy water, Maginus dashed away from the exit. The light breeze that blew up did not attract the attention of the drowsy soldiers; instead, it made them feel even more comfortable as it cooled them down.
She rushed out of the sewer. The sun had just risen, and the commercial street was already bustling with people. When they saw the dirty girl rushing out, they showed expressions of disgust and panic, and kept backing away to show that they did not want to touch her.
Maginus rushed into the alley and took off his black robe. The stench on his body lessened somewhat, but it wasn't completely gone.
There are still three days left...
Relaxing her tense muscles, Maginus entered a clothing store as a customer. Before the disdainful shopkeeper could chase her away, she tossed out the gold coins in her hand, chose a well-fitting outfit, and quickly left.
She then entered a hotel, her calm expression revealing nothing amiss. After booking a room, she immediately ordered a waiter to bring a basin of water, closed the door, and began vigorously wiping her body while undressing.
When the hunters tracked her to the inn about ten minutes later, Maginus escaped through the window again and disappeared from their sight.
……
By blending into the crowd and moving with the flow, Maginus remained undetected for the time being. In the last three days, with nowhere else to turn, all she could do was keep moving, using the crowd to her advantage during the day to avoid enemies, and finding a random house to hide in at night.
She had no way to escape her pursuers. After all, Maginus had only just awakened her psychic powers. Having lost her magic and only learned half-baked melee skills, she had reached her limit by the time she had lasted this long.
Maginus knew that even if she kept running, she would be caught up sooner or later, no, in half an hour at most.
All the troops that Inser and Susan could muster were rushing to her location; it was only a matter of time before she was killed or captured.
The girl was well aware of this, but she still wanted to struggle, her brother's words echoing in her heart again and again.
She wants to live.
Yes, she wants to live.
Suddenly, Maginus, who had slipped into an alley in the crowd and was heading to another street, felt her hair stand on end. She barely managed to raise her protector to her chest, and her fist, as big as a sandbag, shot out from around the corner and slammed into the longsword.
boom!
The protector who was hit directly by the fist was fine, but the outer scabbard of the sword was instantly torn apart and the fragments scattered in all directions.
The metal sword slammed into the girl's body, the immense force penetrating her internal organs and nearly shattering them completely. She didn't even see what happened or who the enemy was before her body was imprinted on the alley wall.
"Pfft!!!"
Blood and internal organs were vomited out, and the shattered bones and internal organs caused her to feel extremely intense pain. Maginus opened her eyes and saw that the person who attacked her was a man wearing boxing gloves.
"Oh, so he's not dead yet?"
Seeing that the girl had survived his punch, the man said with some surprise, then raised his fist and moved closer, intending to kill her completely.
Before he could make a move, a sword flashed past Maginos, and a man suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking the attack for her.
"Tiger, this is not someone you can kill."
