A beautiful beam of light, like a rainbow, pierced through the monster.
The arrogant vines finally stopped expanding, retracting back into the building, and even tried to escape.
However, that blue arc of light chased up and blocked the monster's path.
Jiang Si placed his unconscious sister in a safe place, looked up at that light, limped and slowly quickened his steps, then broke into a mad run!
His heart was pounding furiously, far more violently and passionately than the moment before death!
However, the light was too fast; his eyes could hardly keep up with it, and even though he sped up, he couldn't catch up at all.
He could only see the light dancing in the air, weaving a beautiful cage, continuously compressing the monster's range of movement.
The monster let out a scream, waving its massive limbs, as if in a dying struggle, smashing against the cage woven by the Magical Girl.
However, the dreadful vines, once they touched the brilliant woven cage, liquefied and flowed down.
Unable to shake that cage in the slightest.
Yet the massive force still shook the cage, and the building collapsed continuously due to its struggle, crumbling debris, steel bars, and some miscellaneous items falling in front of Jiang Si.
Despite the overwhelming desire to get closer, Jiang Si, realizing the danger, stopped, holding onto a nearby broken utility pole.
Blood was flowing down from his forehead, his right arm ached vaguely, and in fact, his left leg's ankle was also injured during the vehicle rollover.
However, Jiang Si showed no reaction; he just raised his head, watching the girl dancing in the air.
So beautiful...
Power.
All the frustration, all the confusion, all the unease were dispelled by that blazing light at this moment.
Extraordinary power.
The extraordinary power that could step into the path of greatness!
The first dawn he had ever seen in his life made Jiang Si lose his ability to think for a moment, only dumbfoundedly reaching out his hand, taking two steps forward.
Wanting to grasp that light.
Yet soon, the giant Disaster Beast broke through the cage; even if its size had shrunk to one-tenth of its original, it still seemed like a natural calamity when charging at ordinary people.
Just as the crowd let out terrified cries, a giant Magic Net unfolded above them, wrapping around the Disaster Beast, then pulled it upward.
Dozens of vines extended to the ground, tightly wrapping around nearby utility poles, trees, and floors.
So, Jiang Si saw that Magical Girl holding the Magic Wand in her hand, uprooting the Disaster Beast and the trees, utility poles, and floors it entwined together!
Dirt, rubble, sparks from fleeing electricity, and the liquefied body of the Disaster Beast under the Magic Net mixed in the air, carrying a smell of rotten eggs and feces.
No matter how hard he trained for a hundred years, he could never have such power...
He thought so, and just when he wanted to chase after her, an ambulance rushed over.
And some policemen from an unknown department, wearing special combat uniforms, forced him into the car, transporting them out of the disaster area.
On the way, Jiang Si found out that his parents were thrown out during the vehicle's rollover, and when found, they were no longer breathing.
When getting off the car, he discovered that all of them, the victims, had been sent to a secluded sanatorium in Hai City.
Apart from the police, there were also unusual caregivers in the sanatorium, seemingly all related to the Magical Girl, and Jiang Si heard some discussions from them.
The incident occurred because it seemed Beihai had not seen a Disaster Beast for nearly a decade.
The relevant departments had relaxed their vigilance, and with frequent Disaster Beasts in other areas, the Magical Girl in Beihai was transferred out, and even the institutions monitoring Disaster Beast activity were understaffed.
This led to the Disaster Beast appearing for so long without suppression.
Because Disaster Beasts are born from human malevolence, just like Magical Girls are born from human wishes.
As long as there's memory of the Magical Girl, the resulting malevolence nourishes and even spawns Disaster Beasts, so ordinary people have their memories of the Magical Girl erased.
Of course, this is limited to cities with almost no Disaster Beast activity; there's no need for it in cities where they frequently appear.
This is why Jiang Si has barely heard about the Magical Girl and Disaster Beasts.
Because Beihai is one of the rare cities that haven't seen a Disaster Beast in a decade.
A city without Disaster Beasts, erasing memories related to the Magical Girl can effectively prevent the birth of Disaster Beasts.
But sometimes, accidents happen.
Like now, occasionally a Disaster Beast of unknown origin might suddenly appear, a very low probability event.
In fact, even so, the Disaster Strategy Bureau reacted swiftly, and the vines did not cause havoc for more than three hours before the neighboring Magical Girl arrived.
Magical Girl, the extraordinary power Jiang Si longed for.
This existence corresponds to Disaster Beasts. While Disaster Beasts are embodiments of disaster and despair, Magical Girls are embodiments of happiness and hope.
The official explanation is like this.
Possessing extraordinary power far exceeding that of humans, they are the objects of respect and worship for many people.
Perhaps it could be used for Cultivation Immortality, Jiang Si thought.
This made it almost impossible for him to care about the deceased after arriving at the sanatorium. His parents were dead, after all; the dead cannot be brought back to life, and he couldn't generate many emotions.
He just kept collecting information about the Magical Girl.
