Sky Striker Princess, but the swan song of Valkyrie.

"Hmm, it's nothing, just noise. As for the future, let's go take refuge first."

As Tachibana Hibiki spoke, she picked up the communicator to answer the call, and Kohinata Mirai nodded in agreement before heading to Lydian's shelter.

.....

"Huff...huff, why are there more and more of these guys? Just how far is Finney going to go to kill them all?!"

On the city streets, Chris, wielding two machine guns, complained breathlessly.

At first, she thought that Finney was just sending out small waves of noise to hunt her down, just like before. But as the battle continued, she discovered that the number of noises she was facing far exceeded the number she had fought before.

"Not only that, what is that thing flying in the sky? Does noise even exist?"

Several tongues of fire destroyed the body of the noise in front of her. Chris raised her head and looked anxiously at the sky.

In the sky, there are four super-large flying noises. These four noises appeared later, and as soon as they appeared, they began to produce many small and medium-sized noises like babies.

"Damn it, we have to break through! If we keep fighting here, we'll be worn down to death!"

Chris realized this, but it was easier said than done. The noise density in this area had reached an absurd level, and simply maintaining the current front line was already quite difficult.

Just then, Chris heard a familiar chant ringing out from the sky. The next moment, a powerful downward strike killed one of the super-large noises.

"Was that attack from that idiot?"

Chris quickly realized who it was.

"Chris-chan, you're here? Are you here to fight alongside us?"

Before Chris could react, a flaxen-colored thing, as if equipped with radar, spotted her and happily pounced over.

"How could that be? I was just bothered by these noises, it was just a coincidence!"

Chris immediately retorted.

"In that case, let's fight together!"

Hibiki Tachibana seemed not to understand, and directly took Chris's hand, smiling as she spoke.

"Ha, can't you understand human language? I don't care about you as long as I can break through."

Chris shook off the other person's hand, somewhat annoyed.

"Chris-chan, watch out!"

Just after Chris made that move, Hibiki Tachibana suddenly shouted and stepped behind Chris, then shattered the incoming noise with a powerful punch.

"You bastard, I told you we don't need you at all... Damn it, let me make this clear first, just like last time, it's only because of the circumstances!"

Seeing the noise gradually closing in, Chris, despite not really wanting to interact with this idiot, awkwardly picked up the machine gun.

[Imyuteus amenonhabakiri tron]

Just as the two were talking, another hymn rang out. At the other end of the street, Kazanari Tsubasa abandoned his motorcycle, donned armor, and instantly cleared away the surrounding noise.

"Tachibana! And Yukine, you're here too?"

Soon, Fengmingyi, who had cleared a safe space, noticed the two standing together and rushed over.

"Ah, Miss Tsubasa, Chris-chan plans to fight alongside us from now on."

Upon seeing her idol arrive, Tachibana Hibiki excitedly said to Kaze Naruto.

"Idiot, when did I ever agree to something like that? You're really annoying!"

Chris retorted loudly.

"Yukine, thank you so much for the last battle."

In response, Kazanari Tsubasa approached Chris and expressed her sincere gratitude to Kasuraji Reiki. She then spoke.

She had a good impression of Chris, who played a key role in rescuing Hibiki Tachibana.

"What's wrong with you two? Can't the people in Section Two understand human language?!"

Chris didn't understand why they were behaving this way. Although she hadn't paid attention to Chris's behavior before, she had still stood on the opposite side of them.

【Ah, wait a minute, come to think of it, it seems like Lingyi has been doing all the work; I don't think I've really done anything.】

At this point, Chris briefly recalled that her previous contributions to Finney were not entirely insignificant, but rather better than nothing.

[Damn it, thinking about it now, I don't really have any major conflicts with them, but...ugh, I feel so incredibly frustrated.]

Chris felt a little depressed.

"Ah, fine, I can't do anything with you guys. Since you've put it that way, then help me hold off these pursuers from Finni!"

Chris loudly proclaimed the nature of the matter.

That's right, it's not me helping them, it's them helping me; I'm just using their power.

"Yes, let's fight together." "Yukine, thank you very much."

Ignoring Chris's statement, Tachibana Hibiki and Kazanari Tsubasa stood with Chris without much resistance, ready to eliminate the noise together.

P.S. Good evening.

P.S. Never try to stay cool during seasonal changes, or you'll catch a cold and regret it (sadly).

Chapter 156 Sudden Event

The massive anti-aircraft fire completely suppressed the noise in the air. The orange figure, like a dump truck, rampaged across the ground, while the blue figure, whose sword blade kept changing, quickly killed any that slipped through the net.

With this coordinated effort, the three quickly cleared away a large wave of noise, and the streets that were originally filled with noise were instantly cleared away.

Even the super-large flying noise high in the sky was wiped out by Chris with her charged-up Fourth Sister Backflow 4-Shrimp 4-Square-Warship Missile, under the cover of Tachibana Hibiki and Kazanari Tsubasa.

"Finally, we've taken care of these guys."

[We must never let Phineas use the Staff of Solomon to do such evil things again.]

After eliminating all the noise, with that thought in mind, Chris deactivated her transformation and rested on the spot.

"Chris-chan, you fought really well just now."

Hibiki Tachibana, who had also deactivated her transformation, happily rushed over after the battle ended.

"Don't get me wrong, it's just because it's my responsibility to eliminate these noises. After all... I'm the one who activated the Staff of Solomon."

Chris said this after pushing away Tachibana Hibiki, who lunged at her.

"However, the experience of fighting on the same front is not fabricated."

Kazanari Tsubasa, having cleared away the last of the noise, also said the same thing.

"Ha, you two..."

Chris was speechless for a moment.

"Tachibana, Tsubasa, Yukine!"

Just then, an urgent voice caught the three men's attention. Upon closer inspection, they saw it was the commander of Section Two, Kazanari Genjuro.

"Master, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Hibiki Tachibana asked instinctively.

"Tachibana, are you able to contact headquarters now? I just tried to contact headquarters, but I found that my communication with headquarters has been cut off by someone."

Kazanari Genjuro asked this urgently.

"Huh?!" "What?" "What's wrong?"

Upon hearing Commander Fengming's words, the three reacted in different ways.

At that very moment, everyone present heard a tremendous roar suddenly erupt from a great distance.

Some time ago...

[Alright, while Genjuro is out, cut off his connection with headquarters, then release noise to lure all the armored personnel outdoors. That way, no one can stop me from activating the Kadingil.]

Alone in the "abyss" of the Second Division headquarters, Sakurai Ryoko organized her thoughts and took out the safe containing Durandal.

[The Undying Blade Durandal, powered by this energy source, stands upright on the earth, firing a shot towards the sky—the Charged Particle Cannon, Kadingil, is almost complete.]

Sakurai Ryoko smiled as she placed Durandal into the abyss, then began the operation she had long since mastered.

After Zero's assessment, Finney gained a deeper understanding of Kazanari Genjuro's fighting prowess.

Out of caution, she deliberately chose a time when Kazanari Genjuro was not around to lure out all the people in disguise, so as to quickly activate Durandal.

"Stop what you're doing, Miss Ryoko, and please explain why the missing Durandal is in your hands."

Just as Sakurai Ryoko was working diligently, a voice from behind interrupted her.

After attempting to contact the commander, Shinji Ogawa noticed something amiss with Ryoko Sakurai's actions and followed her to this location.

"Seriously, Ogawa, interrupting a girl's pursuit of her love at a time like this is going to make you unpopular... And, do you really think you can win?"

Turning her head to look at Ogawa Shinji, who was pointing a pistol at her, Sakurai Ryoko first made a teasing remark, and then, a flash of light appeared, and Finn, wearing bronze serpent armor, gave her a very malicious taunt.

"This posture, the Bronze Serpent Armor, and Durandal... I see. I never imagined that the mastermind behind it all was you, Miss Ryoko."

Upon seeing Finney's appearance and considering the current situation, Shinji Ogawa instantly understood everything.

"That's right, but you're a little late to the party. No one here can stop me now. Of course, if you think that something in your hand that's not even a toy can hurt this beautiful body, that's another story."

Finney said confidently and sarcastically.

How will you know if you don't try?

With a serious expression, Ogawa Shinji made up his mind to delay until the soldier and the commander returned.

Thud----

Without causing any hindrance, in almost two rounds, Shinji Ogawa's body was sent flying out of the door like a rag doll.

Then, before he could regain his composure, the entire environment experienced a tremor that seemed to tear the Second Section apart—no, it was a tremor that had already caused the entire Second Section headquarters to begin to crack.

[What exactly happened? What is she trying to do? In short, the only thing we can do now is evacuate those who are not capable of fighting, and then try to stop her.]

Seeing this, Shinji Ogawa had no choice but to calm down and start doing what he could.

...

"What on earth is going on? Why has the school become so strange!?"

Under the cover of night, the group, drawn by the tremors, spent a considerable amount of time getting back to the place where the roar had occurred. Then, looking at the ruins of Lydian Music Academy, Hibiki Tachibana felt extremely confused.

"Lydian was... um, on the rooftop, by Ms. Sakurai?!"

Kazanari Tsubasa keenly sensed that Sakurai Ryoko was standing on the roof of the academy's teaching building.

"Phineas, what a mess this is!"

At the same time, Chris also noticed Sakurai Ryoko's figure and directly called out the name she knew.

"Ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha!"

Seemingly unable to contain herself any longer, Sakurai Ryoko burst into laughter after Chris revealed her identity, appearing quite happy.

"Is that so? Is this mockery your answer, Ms. Sakurai!"

"That guy, that's the guy I'm going to settle things with, Finney!"

Faced with the other party's mockery, both Kazanari Tsubasa and Chris reacted with their own anger.

"You must be kidding, Miss Ryoko. You mean Miss Finney?"

For a moment, Hibiki Tachibana was somewhat incredulous, but then Sakurai Ryoko's change in appearance forced her to believe it.

“That is it. My identity is that of a priestess from a prehistoric civilization that exists in eternity and fleeting moments.”

A flash of light, and Sakurai Ryoko's body transformed, appearing before everyone's eyes as the form they had previously fought against.

"How could this be? That's the real Miss Ryoko..."

Hibiki Tachibana still couldn't quite accept this fact.

"Sakurai Ryoko's body has long been devoured. The priestess Finni from the prehistoric civilization imprinted the mark of her consciousness into the genes of her descendants."

"It's roughly this: as long as a descendant comes into contact with the awakening waveform of a relic, Finney's memories and abilities will instantly awaken—that's the level of the mechanism."

Finney explained in a very relaxed manner.

P.S. Good morning.
