Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　It's not "tragic" but rather "not tragic".

　The reason is simple: after about three days and two nights, the Li village has not suffered any damage.

　Apart from the destroyed mechs and the increasing exhaustion of everyone, the casualties among the fighting force were zero.

　Magical girls, monsters, monsters, and all sorts of other things that can be categorized, and things that cannot be categorized.

　Without exception, no one died.

　This is extremely exaggerated and ridiculous for a war that is this exaggerated... but upon closer inspection, it makes perfect sense.

　On the one hand, it's because the Li people are so difficult to kill.

　If the people of Li Village before were people who "needed time to repair their hearts" and "would have difficulty prioritizing magical power to repair their brains"...

　At this moment, the Li people, who have been through countless battles and have already integrated with the community, could still maintain their emotions and awareness and live for a while longer even if their heads and hearts exploded at the same time...

　If they receive medical treatment or have their magic replenished during this time, they can quickly recover and rejoin the battle.

　On the other hand...

　A portion of the "White Mechs" were newly manufactured Mechs from the special Mech production line brought by Bai Leliu and her team.

　These pure white mechs, painted with red cross-like markings... anyone familiar with similar designs knows they are medics.

　These mechanical warriors, equipped with a remote medical beam that can heal through emotions, are remarkably effective... truly miraculous, doctor.

　At this moment, perhaps Cong Yu should really say something—

　My Li people are countless, while your snake scales are causing casualties every moment... This is a rebellion against Heaven.

　However, the giant snake still did not show itself, as if it did not care at all about the loss of its scales.

　Logically, this should be considered a good thing, but...

　Cong Yu was still somewhat worried...

　"Aren't you going to show up yet?"

　Cong Yu asked himself, while [Source Darkness Apophis] poked his head out from his neck: [Oh well, forget it.]

　This can't be left like this...

　Cong Yu gazed into the distance; the defense line of the Li village remained steadfast.

　What is it (me) waiting for?

　Cong Yu murmured softly, her fingers unconsciously stroking Yuan An Apophis: "Or is it that the other party is like me... indifferent?"

　From a very long time ago, Cong Yu has always been indifferent.

　Perhaps, another version of himself also held an "it doesn't matter" attitude, and this attitude also influenced the giant serpent.

　That is, "another source of darkness".

　In response, [Source Darkness Apophis] lazily circled his neck once, its forked tongue flicking gently.

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Who knows... Maybe it's waiting for us to let our guard down, or maybe it really doesn't care.]

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Anyway, things are going very well right now, so just relax.]

　That's one way of putting it...

　But Cong Yu can't relax at all right now.

　How should I put it? From a factual point of view, Cong Yu watched the game with both "worry" and "relaxation".

　In fact, they are all in an OMO state.

　However, from Cong Yu's subjective perspective, the former is less like AFK (away from the sidelines) and more like an observer on the edge compared to the latter.

　Perhaps it's because they feel more at ease psychologically?

　As Cong Yu was thinking this...

　The "dark rift" that had been torn open began to ripple slightly, like a pebble being thrown into a calm lake.

　Space began to spread like ripples on water...

　However, the ripples quickly expanded, becoming violent and turbulent, and the entire sky was being torn and twisted by some invisible force.

　The clouds were stirred up, forming a huge vortex. The center of the vortex gradually cracked open, revealing more and deeper darkness.

　The dark rift is widening.

　It's obvious at a glance that this is preparation for the arrival of a "giant".

　The air became thick and viscous, making it difficult to breathe, even more suffocating than when Moile had arrived.

　"coming."

　【coming! 】

　Cong Yu and Yuan An Apophis spoke almost simultaneously, their eyes narrowing before they leaped towards that direction at incredible speed.

　In the next instant, the giant serpent's head slowly emerged from the crack. The head alone already obscured half the sky.

　Moreover, at this moment, the other person's gaze was no longer dull and indifferent, but finally carried a hint of "interest".

　Are you getting serious?

　No, it's probably just that I've gotten playful.

　Just like a child lazily sunbathing next to an anthill, who eventually becomes interested in the anthill.

　The giant snake remained silent, but the oppressive silence was more suffocating than any roar.

　Its very existence is a declaration—

　The destruction of civilization heralds the end of everything.

　"A giant snake!"

　"It's coming!"

　"Lord Cong Yu!"

　The magical girls and other warriors on the front lines roared with excitement, throwing themselves even more wholeheartedly into the battle against the serpent scales.

　The arrival of the giant serpent gave them confidence.

　Because everyone could clearly see the giant snake.

　Only three-quarters of its body was covered with scales.

　For them, their battle and mission were a quarter complete, and the rest...

　Then you can confidently entrust it to the "strong" and the "gods".

　Meanwhile, Cong Yu, who was rushing forward, quickly caught up with one of them, who abandoned the battlefield of snake scales in an instant and rushed towards the giant snake... Hagi Rei!

　"Eat! Eat me... Takemikazuchi!!!"

　As it roared, the thunder beast's two tails crackled and popped in the air behind it.

　Finally, before Cong Yu rushed towards the giant snake...

　Takemikazuchi transformed into millions of volts, striking the giant serpent's head directly, and then... was sent flying three hundred meters backward.

　"Plop!"

　"..."

　"What are you doing?!"

　Loudly complaining, Cong Yu was almost amused, his hand tightly gripping [Source Darkness Apophis], which had transformed into a sharp sword.

　A sword cleaved down!

　"Chi chi chi!!"

　As before, the "possibility of a guaranteed hit" and the "possibility of avoidance" intertwined, erupting into a dark electric grid like spreading thunder... or perhaps it could be seen as a tree.

　Centered on the point where "darkness" intersects, things radiate outwards, just like a tree with branches and leaves, or a spider web.

　"Tsk tsk tsk!!!"

　Then, Source Darkness Apophis transformed into a sharp blade, suddenly slicing into the giant serpent's head... and at that moment, jet-black mud gushed out rapidly.

　The giant snake's head drooped slightly from the blow, its scarlet eyes calmly and intriguingly watching the oncoming rain.

　Then, the emotions in the giant snake's eyes gradually changed from doubt to disbelief.

　As the black mud surged toward Cong Yu and [Source Darkness Apophis], the giant serpent's deep and majestic voice filled the entire battlefield.

　[Another host, and...]

　[Another me?]

　……

　Although he was already certain of it, Cong Yu was still quite impressed when he heard these words from his opponent.

　"Hello……"

　As he spoke, Cong Yu swiftly dodged the "mud" that automatically entangled him, raising his sword high.

　"Another Source Darkness Apophis!"

　Cong Yu pierced the giant snake's eye with his sword.

　More mud shot up like a fountain.

　Chapter 1156 Giant Serpent (Part 2)

　Cong Yu hasn't heard the voice of [Source Darkness Apophis] for a long time... well, that might be a bit ambiguous.

　To be precise...

　As is widely known, the current Origin Dark Apophis uses the voice of a certain cute and famous virtual singer.

　Previously, Yuan An Apophis's voice was the kind that sounded like someone who wasn't a good person, a somewhat androgynous voice.

　Well, you can't say that someone is a bad person just by listening to them.

　It can only be said that Gen'Dark Apophis might be a good person. However, it's highly unlikely that Gen'Dark Apophis is a good person at all.

　At this moment, Cong Yu had indeed not heard the true voice of Gen'an Apophis for a very long time...

　It might not be accurate to call it her natural voice, since both the androgynous voice and MIKU's vocal style were created by Gen'an Apophis.

　Well, that's basically the gist of it.

　The giant serpent slowly raised its head, its crimson eyes flashing slightly, as if scrutinizing Cong Yu and the sword in his hand.

　Its voice rang out again, carrying an indescribable emotion—

　[The other you in other worlds... and the "me" in the cycle of reincarnation, it's truly a bizarre combination.]

　As it made this sound, the giant snake pondered for a moment before looking at the people fighting against its scales.

　In the past, I might have had the interest to chat and communicate with the host, but now...

　It was just a slightly unexpected farce.

　After listening to another source, Dark Apophis, also known as the "Giant Serpent," fluently recite these words.

　The other person shut up...

　Just as Cong Yu was about to say something, the giant snake suddenly swung its head, then twisted its head and lunged at Cong Yu.

　This speed is simply...

　Fast! Super fast! Too fast!!!

　Before Cong Yu could react, he was swallowed into his mouth in an instant... This feeling was strangely familiar to him.

　After all, Cong Yu needed to enter the Jormungandr train in a similar way.

　However, Cong Yu could not guarantee that after being swallowed by the giant snake, she would be taken to a carriage of the "Giant Snake Train".

　Because it only happened for a fleeting moment before it was swallowed...

　Cong Yu discovered that what constituted the giant serpent was not flesh and blood, but an extreme and pure darkness.

　In other words, it is one of the "possibilities".

　Cong Yu had no idea what the specific possibility of "what" it was.
