After completing this task, An Teng Meizi flapped her wings and turned into a stream of red light, quickly returning in the direction of the golden battleship.
When she landed, the other girls looked at her in surprise. High in the sky, the dark clouds obscured their vision and perception, and no one knew what Meiko Anten had done.
Of course, this "no one" also included Mikael and Louise. Although they didn't know what was going on, they vaguely guessed something.
So the two of them didn't ask Meiko Anten any questions, but just stared at her.
Meiko Anten didn't keep the secret. She stretched out her clenched fist towards the two of them, and then slowly opened it under the gaze of everyone.
A glass shield suddenly took shape in his palm, and within the glass ornament composed of pentagons, a black gas that seemed to be substantial and was moving in an irregular rhythm was suspended.
After feeling that he was surrounded by something, he became restless and kept hitting the glass shield like a headless fly, making a "bang, bang, bang" sound.
"Is this... a bug?" Mikael was the first to speak. Although it was the first time they saw this thing, she and Louise quickly figured out the clues.
Volume 6: The Darkness of Prophecy: Chapter 134: Aggregate
Just as Meiko Anten guessed, the black gas was actually alive, a real living organism, a worm.
The real reason why the dark clouds in the sky are illusory is that these insects immediately curl up into a ball after appearing from the cracks. The overly dense black magic power gathers together to form a fog-like appearance.
The substantial black mass in the center of the dark cloud is actually an aggregate of these insects.
嗙
Just as everyone was thinking, the glass shield, which had not been infused with much magic power, was shattered. The black insect flipped down and actually drilled into An Teng Meizi's body from her palm in full view of everyone.
"Akahime?"
The sudden change startled both Mikael and Louise. She rushed forward and grabbed Anten Meiko's left and right hands respectively. When she was about to inject her magic power into her body, she was stopped by her.
"Two seniors, this is not necessary."
She let the black worm wander around in her body. Based on its route, Anten Meiko could confirm that the worm was not moving aimlessly.
This is a good opportunity to learn about the characteristics of these insects.
Meiko Anten thought quickly in her mind, and at the same time she even directly suppressed the magic power and magic ether that were agitated by the intrusion of foreign objects.
Eventually, the worm swam along the blood vessels into her cerebral cortex and plunged into the brain nerves. Its irregular body began to expand and actually tried to occupy her entire brain.
A ball of fire rose directly from her heart, traveled along her meridians, and quickly found the place where the insects broke in, burning it into nothingness in an instant.
The burning magic power of Kong Yan is definitely the most effective weapon against creatures whose whole body is filled with magic power.
"How are you feeling?"
In response to Louise's concerned inquiry, Meiko Anten shook her head and smiled, "I'm fine, but thanks to this, we've discovered another characteristic of this insect."
"Characteristics?" Mikael asked doubtfully. "What characteristics?"
"I followed the insect's movement and discovered it had burrowed directly into my brain. It then expanded and covered my nerve cells after entering the cerebral cortex, as if it was trying to seize control of my brain."
"Is it so weird?" The leader of the investigation team exclaimed in disbelief.
"You're really taking a risk. What if you lose control and she takes control of you?" Louise reached out and knocked Anten Meiko on the head. "You absolutely mustn't do that next time. Got it?"
Meiko Anten directly shook her head in denial: "Knowing ourselves and the enemy ensures victory in every battle. If we don't understand the enemy at all, we will suffer heavy losses once the war begins, so this sacrifice is necessary."
Seeing Louise's face turn a little grim because of her denial, Anten Meizi comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm not a rookie, so I know my limits. Besides, I value my life very much, so I won't take the initiative to do anything that is beyond my control."
Hearing this, Louise's expression became much better. She gently patted An Teng Meizi's shoulder and said, "Well, you have done a great job this time."
"Seniors, look." A girl from the investigation team suddenly exclaimed, and then she moved the screen in front of her to appear in front of Anten Meiko and the other three.
She was the person responsible for controlling the floater, and the robotic floater had already drilled deep into the dark clouds, stopped in front of the black sphere, and fixed the camera in one place.
It was only then that everyone realized that the black ball under the camera was not a true circle, but looked like a ball of boiling water that had been formed in the absence of gravity.
It looks like a whole, but in fact every part is wriggling and twitching. The visual impact of this way is enough to make people feel extremely disgusted.
The next moment, there was a movement at the camera. A thick black water column suddenly shot out like rubber and shot directly towards the camera.
A moment later, the image on the screen had completely turned into a snowy shape, and a few words popped up indicating that the signal was interrupted.
It goes without saying that the mechanical flying mosquito must have been completely destroyed by the insect aggregate.
After shooting down the mechanical flying mosquito, the black sphere suddenly pupated violently, spread out and transformed into a giant umbrella, flying towards the golden battleship closest to them.
"Oh no, the mechanical flying mosquito just now has angered these insects. Mikael, retreat quickly." Louise said to herself, "Oh no!" and urged Mikael beside her.
Mikael reacted immediately and urged the golden battleship back towards the academy. However, the speed of the black ball was too fast, and it covered the golden passport on the golden battleship almost the moment it launched the attack.
For a moment, it was as if tens of millions of pounds of gravity were exerted on it, immediately making the golden warship, which was known for its speed, become as slow as a turtle. Even turning around was without any power, like an old man in his twilight years.
This golden shield is not something that comes with the golden battleship, but one of Louise's magics, a super-large-scale defensive magic.
But why would the warships be affected when these bugs pounce on the shield?
"What's wrong with Louise?" Because he was busy operating the golden battleship, Mikael didn't notice Louise's movements at all.
Looking back, she saw Louise gritting her teeth with a look of pain on her face. Her gaze immediately moved down her body, and when she saw that her feet had left two concave pits on the battleship, she realized what had happened.
These bugs were suppressing Louise's magic power, and this suppression acted on Louise's body and affected the battleship under her feet through her.
A crack appeared on the shield, again and again. With the first weak spot, more and more cracks continued to emerge and spread to the entire golden shield.
"Everyone, take your positions..." Louise gritted her teeth and spoke word by word, "I can't hold on any longer..."
In fact, before she said this, seeing that the shield was about to break, the members of the defense team had already started to use their magic power in advance.
Bang, bang... The continuously colliding aggregates would make a deafening roar like an explosion every time they hit the shield, and Louise's face became more and more ugly under these repeated impacts.
"This damn attack intensity is too high..." Finally, with Louise's curse, the golden shield shattered in an instant, and the swarm of insects swept over the battleship.
Without the obstruction of the protective shield, the suppression force on the battleship was finally lifted. Mikael immediately tried his best to urge the battleship to turn around.
Volume 6: The Darkness of Prophecy: Chapter 135: The Cage of Flame
The golden battleship quickly took all the investigation team members into the cabin and fled backwards, while the irregularly moving insects curled up into a ball at this moment, and then unexpectedly changed into the appearance of the golden battleship.
The black battleship's rear thruster ejected a powerful magical airflow, and it caught up with them in almost two breaths at a speed faster than the golden battleship.
After catching up with Ando Meiko and her group, the top of the black battleship squirmed and turned into spikes, shooting towards the direction of the golden battleship at a high speed.
It also quickly caught up with the warship at an extremely astonishing speed and attacked everyone on the ship.
Upon seeing this, the defense team immediately activated their own defensive magic. For a moment, the golden warship was colorful and magnificent, and one after another, different shields and barriers were supported between the spikes and the warship.
The spikes poured down on the shields like raindrops, and those spikes that were blocked not only did not bounce off, but instead turned into a pool of black water and attached directly to the shields.
More and more spikes emerged from the black battleship, and the size of the battleship became smaller and smaller. Finally, when all the spikes were attached to the shield, everyone's faces became gloomy.
They resisted the oppressive feeling that was directly exerted on themselves through the magic power they controlled, gritting their teeth to prevent themselves from being overwhelmed by the pressure.
Compared to letting Louise bear everything alone just now, with so many people in the defense team sharing the burden, the pressure on each person will undoubtedly be much less.
But the golden battleship and Mikael are different, because even if the pressure is dispersed, it will eventually act on the golden battleship and on her.
The sudden and huge feeling of oppression almost made her faint, and the golden warship, which was originally moving at an extremely fast speed, suddenly dropped again and became a turtle crawling.
Meiko Ando looked at the black film that almost covered the surroundings. She gritted her teeth and said in her heart: "We must not let these things enter the academy. There are so many people in the academy. Once the insects scatter, it will be over."
Thinking of this, she immediately put away her glass shield.
Ando Meiko's defense range was the widest except for Louise's, so when she withdrew her defense, the others suddenly felt a lot of pressure and cast doubtful and questioning eyes towards her.
Facing everyone's gaze, Ando Meiko did not explain. She pressed her right hand on her heart and bent it into the shape of an eagle's claw, and drew out a ball of strange red flame as if she was sucking something.
As the Starry Sky Flame appeared, the temperature around it immediately rose, and everyone could feel the scorching heat coming towards them. They stared at the crimson flame, as if they had thought of something.
"Senior Louise, remove all your defenses immediately and leave the rest to me!" As soon as she finished speaking, her body was wrapped in red petals.
The closed petals instantly spun and opened, and a lovely girl wearing a long-tailed dress, like a princess of a certain country, appeared in front of everyone.
Holy Suit, Starry Form. Ever since obtaining the Starry Eclipse Form, Ando Meiko has rarely used Starry and Starry Flash, because the enhancements of these two forms are too simple and are far less powerful than Starry Eclipse.
But now she doesn't need this kind of power. What she needs is the ability to easily control the air flame, and the Star Glory form that can enhance magic control and magic perception is undoubtedly the best choice.
Louise looked at Mikael. The two leaders of this operation nodded simultaneously and called out to the people behind them, "Immediately remove all defensive spells. Relax your mind and don't resist."
They were struggling to hold on with defensive magic and suddenly felt relieved. After removing all the magical defenses, they immediately relaxed and were taken into the cabin of the golden warship.
"Flame cage!"
She pushed the fireball in her hand out, and stretched out her hands to both sides. The ball of fire, which was only the size of a basketball, instantly split into pieces and turned into a huge net of fire, which formed a counter-encirclement trend against the overwhelming black liquid.
The net of flames was like a hideous mouth of the abyss. It wrapped up all the black liquid in one go, and was shrinking inward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A crackling sound suddenly rang out, followed by an extremely piercing and sharp chirping sound. The four sides of the fire cage were bulged by the insects that resisted from time to time, but they soon returned to their original state.
Finally, after about half a cup of tea, the chirping of insects was no longer harsh and the fireball shrank back to the size of a fist and was taken back into Ando Meiko's body, where the heart fire seed was stored.
This empty flame is not obtained for nothing. It is a flame stored by converting excess magic power using the heart fire seed. To put it bluntly, it is a rare consumable and cannot be used at any time and recovered quickly like magic power.
Fortunately, there is no clear upper limit to this storage capacity. Even if you convert all your magic power, the Heart Fire Seed will not reach the upper limit.
By reabsorbing the remaining air flame into the body, it can greatly reduce waste and reuse magic power to compress the time of transforming air flame.
More than two weeks had passed since she condensed the heart fire seed, and she had only transformed a small amount. Now it was almost all used up, which still made her feel a little sad.
Meiko Ando returned to her original form. Her body softened and she fell onto the hull, her face pale as she breathed heavily.
Releasing the Sky Flame doesn't consume much magic power, but controlling it over such a large area requires a lot of effort even with the assistance of the Star Form.
Normally, she just used the air flame as a means of attack, so she didn't have this experience now. Now she realized how difficult it was to control the power that she couldn't grasp.
Louise and Mikael patted Ando Meiko's shoulders on both sides. Looking at this capable junior, their eyes showed satisfaction and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
The new generation replaces the old one. It's really amazing what young people can do. It seems that both of us are no longer young.
After many twists and turns, the golden battleship finally returned to the Magic Academy. When everyone in the cabin was released, the members of the security team all looked terrified.
Although there were no casualties, the scene just now really made them feel thrilling. If those insects broke through all the defenses and rushed in, they couldn't imagine what would happen.
Just what Meiko Andeng said, that these insects can drill into the human body and invade the brain, is enough to make them terrified.
Volume 6: The Darkness of Prophecy: Chapter 136: The Insect Demon
Everyone looked back at the direction of the dark cloud in the sky. Because the insect swarm riot had just taken away a large part of the dark cloud, the remaining dark cloud seemed much smaller and more illusory.
"Thank you for your hard work." Asahina and the others who had been waiting here came forward to comfort Mikael and Louise, then looked at the leader of the investigation team, "What are the results of the investigation?"
"The thing that leaked out from the crack is a life form that can change its form. It can absorb magic power and put a heavy pressure on it..."
"I don't think it's the pressure on the magic power." At this time, An Teng Meizi stood up and pointed out, "It should be the pressure on the consciousness that controls the magic power."
"Oh?" Asahina looked at Anten Meiko in surprise, "Tell me what you think."
Meiko Anten didn't speak, but looked at the leader of the investigation team. After he nodded slightly, she said, "I once caught a bug and put it into my body."
Hearing this, Asahina and Renka, both mother and daughter, couldn't help but frown.
This guy really dares to do anything. He even dares to put these creatures into his body without knowing anything about them. This is too bold.
However, this is indeed the case when trying to obtain information from the unknown. If there are no brave people who are brave enough to blaze a trail and clear the way for the world, the unknown will always be unknown and can only be unknown.
"It invaded my body, entered my brain through my blood vessels, and then began to attempt to take over my mind and consciousness. I think the so-called pressure on magic power, judging by its characteristics, should be pressure on consciousness."
This judgment is not without reason, because a magical girl trying to control her magic not only needs to use it, but also needs to infuse her own consciousness into the magic.
Many people ignore this point because this infusion is actually subconscious, and even they themselves are not aware of it.
These bugs take advantage of this, which is why they put pressure on the consciousness when consuming magic power and feed it back to the controller's body.
"Your guess should be correct," Beichen Tiantian said. "Asahina, have you forgotten the liquid weapons that appeared during the Void Invasion War?"
Asahina was slightly stunned, and then instantly recalled what happened more than ten years ago when the void seal was broken and the void beasts invaded the void world through the cracks.
There was once a battle in which three ultimate magical girls joined forces to surround and kill a god-level void beast called the Insect Demon God. The three people in that battle happened to be Kamijou Asahina, Hokuchen Tenten and Chris.
The Insect Demon God does not have as strong combat power and magic as other demon gods, but it has a very tricky ability, which is infinite division and the ability to drill into the bodies of magical girls to destroy their entire brains. It is a biological weapon formed by a swarm of insects called Demon-Eating Brain Worms that are entangled and piled up together.
The body of the Insect Demon God is made up of various insects, and the Demon-Eating Brain Worms are its blood.
The Demon-Eating Brainworm is a liquid worm, its shape is between liquid and gelatinous gas, so it has no fixed form, and can entangle with each other to form a variety of weapons.
"Damn it, I should have thought it was something like this, but weren't they all wiped out by the three of us?"
The reason why Asahina and the others hadn't thought of this was not only because the Void Invasion War had happened so long ago, but also because they had personally annihilated the Insect Demon God and confirmed that it was destroyed to the point where not even a single cell could survive.
If what Anten Meiko said is true, these bugs not only did not destroy her brain, but instead tried to control her consciousness by controlling her brain, it means... these bugs have evolved.
