Although Tokisaki Kurumi was truly killed by Takamiya Mana just now, at the moment of death...
Kurumi Tokisaki activated the Eighth Bullet ability, transferring her consciousness to another body.
So killing her was simply a pipe dream, but what Kurumi Tokisaki found strange was...
In the past, after Takamiya Mana killed one of her clones, there would be no follow-up, but this time the location of the main body was found again.
Looking around, Kurumi Tokisaki was surprised to find that there seemed to be a strange barrier within a hundred miles.
"Could it be that?"
"I've already said it, this time, you have no way to avoid it."
This is a newly developed device by DEM that can report the location of the spirit energy in this area to us.
Furthermore, even those with elven powers cannot escape this barrier; you are trapped in this nightmare with nowhere to run.
"Alright, alright, it seems we have to settle this today."
Realizing she had no way out, Kurumi Tokisaki stopped trying to escape and faced the situation head-on—which, of course, was impossible.
For Kurumi Tokisaki, she had absolutely no desire to waste any extra time.
After all, time is the source of her power, and activating [Zafkiel] requires time to do so.
That's why she didn't want to waste a lot of time dealing with these magicians, especially if it really was as Takamiya Mana said.
Then she had absolutely no reason to tell herself this, and telling her this was simply not in line with Mana Takamiya's personality.
Although in her daily life, Takamiya Mana is a cheerful girl.
However, once she entered battle mode, Tokisaki Kurumi kept calling her "Mad Dog" in her mind.
Whether it's fighting style or other aspects, it's a completely reckless state.
So how could someone like that honestly tell me about this? Therefore, there must be loopholes in the story.
Moreover, the energy required to support such a massive barrier is far beyond what an ordinary person could withstand.
So this is very likely a battle of time, but unfortunately, Kurumi Tokisaki has no shortage of time.
"Alright, alright, in that case, I'll have a serious match with you."
"I think so too."
"Please, I'll do it myself."
"No problem, I can manage on my own."
"But I really don't want to fight, myself."
......
From the shadows on the ground, countless Kurumi Tokisaki figures gradually emerged.
Chapter 264: The Eighth Bullet (Het)
Looking around, there are already more than twenty, and AST's advantage in numbers has instantly vanished.
These are all clones created by Tokisaki Kurumi using the Eighth Bullet, but even in this number...
The total points stored by Tokisaki Kurumi are just a drop in the ocean, since this is where she spends the most time.
Even if it is killed, it can continue to survive through its clones.
If the other party wants to kill me, then they would have to kill me at least tens of thousands of times.
Although there are other ways to crack this, it would be difficult for the average person to think of them.
Moreover, although it is immortal in this respect, pain is unavoidable.
If she had experienced tens of thousands of times of pain that could have led to her death, Kurumi Tsaki's spirit might have been the first to give out.
Of course, this is only a theoretical situation.
Moreover, Tokisaki Kurumi had long been accustomed to pain; such pain was nothing more than a daily occurrence for her.
Despite facing so many Tokisaki Kurumi, Takamiya Mana showed no sign of panic.
While calmly directing the other AST members' attack, he charged into the crowd composed of Tokisaki Kurumi.
With each swing of her weapon, one of Kurumi Tokisaki's clones would fall to the ground and lose its life.
However, it seemed as if they could never be killed off completely, as every time a clone of Tokisaki Kurumi fell to the ground...
Two Tokisaki Kurumi scores will appear, and in the blink of an eye, there are nearly a hundred Tokisaki Kurumi in this area.
And their numbers are still increasing, but Kurumi Tokisaki's clones seem to have no intention of fighting at all.
It moved rapidly throughout the area, and even when attacked by (cdfb), it only made disruptive counterattacks.
Mana Takamiya quickly realized what Kurumi Tokisaki was trying to do.
"Trying to stall for time? Hmph, go ahead and struggle."
Even after knowing what she wanted to do, Takamiya Mana's approach remained unchanged.
Even when faced with such a large number of clones, she remained calm and composed, dealing with the enemies before her with ease.
Although some of the other AST members were struggling, they were still effectively eliminating Tokisaki Kurumi's clones thanks to their excellent teamwork.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Kurumi Tokisaki, with the help of her clones, was able to interfere.
Even if they knew their location, there weren't enough people to target them, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Kurumi Tokisaki ran to the edge of this area.
However, just as Takamiya Mana said, she, who possessed spirit power, was indeed unable to cross this space.
"Are you thinking that as long as we stall until this barrier can't hold on any longer, everything will be fine?"
However, at that moment, that familiar voice rang in Tokisaki Kurumi's ears once again.
Mana Takamiya's every word seemed to see right through her, every single one hitting the nail on the head.
"Give up. We used the power supply of five cities to deal with you."
We will not lift the barrier unless you are defeated.
"They really went to great lengths to deal with me."
"If you behave like the other elves, we can leave you alone."
But who gave you the right to be so ostentatious and commit so many evil deeds?
We can no longer turn a blind eye; this is where you will meet your end.
"If it's really like what you're saying, then why did you tell me? This doesn't fit your usual personality."
"There's no particular reason. After all, if you just surrendered, we could save some effort."
"If I surrender, will you let me go?"
"I am not qualified to make a decision, but considering the crimes you have committed..."
Even dying hundreds of times wouldn't be enough.
"Can I let my clone die?"
"What do you think?"
"It probably won't work."
Now Kurumi Tokisaki was also finding things a bit troublesome. Although she still had ways to carry it out, it was far too dangerous.
Moreover, she didn't want to do anything too flashy, even though she had already attracted enough attention by now.
"I had no choice; you forced me to do this."
The sight of countless clones uttering the same sentence simultaneously was truly eerie.
But this is not the end, after saying the same thing.
All the clones did the same thing at the same time: they raised one hand above their heads and then snapped their fingers lightly.
What followed was a repetitive and monotonous alarm sound that hadn't been heard for many years.
[Spacequake Warning! Spacequake Warning! Please proceed to the nearest shelter in an orderly and rapid manner! This is not a drill! Repeating!]
Spacequake warning! Spacequake warning! Please proceed to the nearest shelter quickly and orderly! This is not a drill! Repeating...
Chapter 265: The Fatal Blow
All Pokémon possess the ability to actively trigger spacequakes, but in reality, very few truly master them.
Although it wasn't Tokisaki Kurumi's final move, it was certainly one of her trump cards.
Although a spacequake can be eliminated by simply colliding with an equal force at the moment it is triggered, very few people besides Pokémon can actually do this.
Therefore, this technique should be very effective against these AST magicians, but—
Do you really think it will work?
Listening to the space sirens echoing over the city, Takamiya Mana showed no panic whatsoever.
"You only have the right to be arrogant now. You will all be completely swallowed up by the spatial quake soon!"
"Is it really?"
"Hmph, say what you will!"
The next moment, a massive amount of energy was rapidly compressed in mid-air, a precursor to a spatial tremor.
He compressed his spirit power to its limit, activated the energy, and then instantly expanded it, leveling everything around him.
The atomic bomb works on a similar principle, except that nuclear fission has been replaced by the expansion of ethereal energy.
However, just as Kurumi Tokisaki was waiting for this power to expand, a beam of light shot from afar.
It precisely hit the area where the spacequake was about to take off, and the two forces instantly canceled each other out.
"what happens!?"
Seeing the scene before her, Kurumi Tokisaki was momentarily stunned.
"I already told you, it's useless, but this is the first time you've seen it, isn't it—the Eye of Heaven."
Ultra-long-range laser weapons launched from space can reach the speed of light.
It can hit every corner of the world in an instant, but we have no intention of threatening the whole world.
