Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

Page 249

The flashes from the explosion illuminated the shocked faces of all the magical girls.

"Interesting fireworks, but unfortunately the temperature isn't quite right," Anna said calmly, glancing at Vera and the others.

These magical girls are sometimes just mascots; they have no chance against witches. Wendy can easily slaughter these weak magical girls, and Anna can too.

The only real threat to them is their individual powers and the creations of those powers.

Anna looked at the 'sun' in the sky. Emilia, who controlled the power of thunder, was doing her best to slow down the melting of the Antarctic ice sheet. Muses, who controlled the power of reason, was not here. It seemed that no magical girl knew how to use the power of wind.

As for Alicia, who controls the power of the sky...

Anna looked at Alicia again without changing her expression, then flicked away the spatial quake. Anna felt that even if she used all her strength, she might not be able to be defeated by Alicia. She really wanted to get off the stage and go back as soon as possible.

'What exactly is the problem?'

Anna fell into deep thought. She hadn't allowed the Frost Guard to fully control the ice and snow for the battle, since this was Antarctica, which was the Frost Guard's home ground.

Secondly, Anna did not fully utilize her powers; at most, she only thawed the Antarctic ice sheet and halted the surrounding attacks.

However, Anna quickly came to a conclusion.

A certain Herrscher of Origin is waiting for Alicia to grow up.

Then Anna glanced suspiciously at Alicia, who had been making a flurry of attacks, but had barely managed to deal any damage.

Why do you only know how to use Spacequake? That's not how you use the power of space.

Anna grew increasingly suspicious. "Where's your portal? Couldn't you just open one and stuff the spatial shock into my head? Then I could just jump right in!"

Anna, who had a blank expression on her face, was speechless. She still had the leisure to ask a question in the chat group.

[It's been so many years, why doesn't Alicia seem to have improved much?]

Anna didn't pay much attention to Alicia's situation, and naturally didn't know that Alicia only went to play with the power of the void after Wendy left.

Then Sirin answered Anna, and Wendy also mentioned what she heard a certain Herrscher of Origin say to Alicia when she left the stage.

Believe in yourself!

'But isn't that completely ignoring what I'm saying?'

Looking at Alicia, who was constantly throwing spatial tremors and pink arrows, Anna sighed inwardly. Even if Alicia didn't use her spatial powers, her own conviction was strong enough to interfere with Anna's powers. A few more arrows would be enough to send Anna out of the game.

Previously, when Alicia was fighting Sirin, she interfered with Sirin's powers by relying on her beliefs. So what's going on now?

'Should I offer a word of advice?' Anna couldn't help but want to remind Alicia that her combat power had actually weakened after obtaining the power of the sky, and she was becoming less and less confident as the fight went on.

"Should we try to remind Alicia? She's playing even worse than Bronya," Anna said in the chat group, casually responding to Alicia's attacks while occasionally throwing an ice spear, making it seem like they were engaged in a fierce battle.

Because the battle between the two sides had a wide impact, no one immediately realized that Anna was just playing around with Alicia.

"How about we give her a little thrill?" Raiden Mei suggested in the chat group.

[The Honkai energy that Alicia purified before was full of the consciousness and souls of dead humans. She didn't seem to distinguish them and purified all of them.]

The consciousness and souls of the magical girls Wendy killed are still preserved in their respective bodies. They appear to be dead, but they have actually fallen into a deep sleep. After all, these magical girls are actually the familiars of the Herrscher of Origin, so they couldn't have died so easily.

Bronya, Sirin, and Raiden Mei all possess the consciousness and souls of the humans they killed. If they can recreate bodies, they can revive those humans.

However, after Alicia obtained the Herrscher cores of the three of them, she purified all the Honkai energy inside, including the consciousness and souls of tens of millions of humans within them.

【It's up to you, Seele】Bronya sent a message in the chat group.

"Wouldn't this be a bit too much for Alicia?" Seele asked with some concern.

[It will also make her hate us.]

"Whatever, we need to give Alicia a lot of stimulation, let her carry what she perceives as sin and do everything she can to defeat us," Sirin replied.

"I'll just use a little force, okay?" Anna was actually already prepared.

"Let's begin then," Sirin said nonchalantly.

At the South Pole, Anna gripped her ice spear tightly and then shouted.

"Time, stand still!"

Although it only halts everything within this limited space, achieving a relative time freeze, and there is still a certain area that can be seen by humans outside the area, it is not a true time freeze.

But that was enough for Anna to go and attack Emilia directly.

Five seconds later, Alicia suddenly realized that the Fifth Witch had disappeared.

But then she saw the 'sun' falling from the sky, and the witch who shot it down.

The melting rate of Antarctic glaciers accelerated once again.

"Witch!!!"

Chapter 413 The Worst Plan

"boom!!!"

In her rage, Alicia unleashed her full power of the Void, creating a terrifying spatial tremor at Anna's location.

But this spatial oscillation suddenly stopped.

Vera and the others immediately reacted and flew towards Emilia, who was about to fall. After catching her, they quickly flew into the sky to get away from the spatial tremors that were erupting below.

After seeing Vera and the others walk away, Anna looked at Alicia and sighed helplessly.

'If it weren't for me, you would have killed them all yourself.'

Anna then calmed down most of the spatial tremor before kicking the ground.

In an instant, a spherical area a hundred meters wide appeared in the lighthouse base, and everything in it vanished.

This was even with Anna having reduced over 90% of the power. Moreover, if Wendy hadn't previously mobilized imaginary numbers from outside the solar system to strengthen the entire Earth, Alicia could have directly sunk the Antarctic continent.

But Alicia, consumed by rage, was oblivious to all of this; all she saw was her best friend being pierced through the chest by the witch.

Completely oblivious to the terrifying power that Alicia, preoccupied with killing the witch, was unleashing when she unleashed her full power of the Void.

We really went to great lengths.

Anna watched indifferently as Alicia, blinded by rage, watched her own body being destroyed by Alicia.

After the previous witch incidents, especially the deaths of hundreds of magical girls, and more importantly, the departure of the pink fairy sister, it was clear that Alicia was finding it difficult to maintain a calm mindset.

However, it is foreseeable that Alicia will still have to experience more thrills.

Alicia's gaze gradually cleared, and she stared blankly at the Ice Witch Gem in her hand, whose power was called [Ice of Stasis].

"Amélie!" Alicia, gradually realizing what was happening, quickly flew towards Emilia, who was being held by Vera.

"Quickly...refreeze! The glacier is melting to the point of no return!" Emilia shouted, clutching the ice spear in her abdomen, ignoring her own injuries.

The melting rate of the entire Antarctic glacier has only been slowed down, but has never actually stopped. After Emilia was injured, she discovered that the melting rate of the glacier had accelerated.

Once the melting of Antarctic glaciers reaches a critical point—or even just approaches it—the constantly moving Antarctic tectonic plates will automatically enter that critical point.

Then came an unprecedented super underwater earthquake, followed by a global mega tsunami.

As for the changes in ocean currents and climate caused by glacial melting, those are minor issues.

Just as Emilia was struggling to forcefully use the power of lightning again...

A teleportation screen lit up, and Muirsey sped out of the vehicle and flew towards Emilia.

Before Muirsey could say much, she transferred all the magic power she had converted from a large amount of electrical energy to Emilia, and then hurriedly returned to the vehicle to teleport back to the Shenzhou Nuclear Power Plant.

Despite her injuries, Emilia gripped the Thunder Witch Gem and reactivated its power. This time, without the interference and influence of the Ice Witch, the melting rate of the Antarctic glacier finally stopped, and she was still doing her best to try to make the seawater around the Antarctic continent freeze back into a glacial state.

However, this also exacerbated Emilia's magic consumption, as the magic provided by Muerses was far from enough, and Alicia's magic was also in short supply.

"At the current rate of consumption, it will only last for 50 minutes!"

After quickly calculating Emilia's current magical speed, Vera reported the matter to Muirseth with trembling hands.

Fifty minutes may seem like a long time, but it is almost impossible to refreeze glaciers throughout the Antarctic Circle.

Alicia wanted to help Emilia with the Ice Witch Gem, but she knew absolutely nothing about it and had no idea how to use it. Emilia was equally clueless. Although the Ice Witch Gem's power, [Ice of Stagnation], was the best way to refreeze the seawater, it was meaningless if you didn't know how to use it.

On the other side, the Shenzhou nuclear power plant

After being teleported back, Muirsey received another report from Vera and contacted the highest leader of China directly. He also informed all the countries about the situation in Antarctica.

"I need electricity from the entire land of China!"

"it is good!"

There was no excuse, no demands, only a firm answer.

Three minutes later, the highest mobilization order for China was officially and comprehensively issued, and a series of measures were announced, including nationwide power outages for non-essential situations.

Power engineers across the country received orders to connect the power grid to the nuclear power plant within 50 minutes and transmit electricity from across the country to the plant.

This is a catastrophe that will affect all of humanity. If we fail to prevent it from reaching the tipping point, human civilization will suffer heavy losses in this annihilation.

The super tsunami triggered after reaching the critical point will not completely destroy human civilization, but frequent earthquakes are certain in the future, and tsunamis will continue to occur one after another.

More importantly, this was caused by only one witch, and no one knows how many more witches will trigger such a terrifying catastrophe in the future.

Within ten minutes, everyone in China knew about the situation, including the situation in Antarctica, which required concentrating the nation's electricity to prevent the tipping point from arriving.

Most people didn't complain; they just silently watched the power outage arrive. Only a few essential places, such as hospitals and laboratories, still had some power.

The internet access was not shut down, a decision made after discussions among Shenzhou's top management, as maintaining contact with the outside world is essential for the entire company. Of course, more importantly, the Mu Continent is also assisting in transmitting electricity to Shenzhou.

The combined power generation of Shenzhou and Mu Continent accounts for half of the world's total. However, large-scale transoceanic power transmission is very difficult, and Mu Continent can only provide Shenzhou with some additional power.

The magical girls at St. Freya Magical Girl Academy on the continent of Mu were also helping to absorb electricity, convert it into magic, and send it to Antarctica. However, these magical girls could not withstand as much electricity as Muerses, so the continent of Mu was not greatly affected.

Thirty minutes later, the South Pole

Muirseth teleported over again, transferring his magic power to Emilia.

"Director, the situation is still not optimistic. Although the Antarctic glaciers are recovering, the latest news from the Geological Bureau shows that the Antarctic Plate is still rising. They predict that a large-scale undersea earthquake and the ensuing tsunami are inevitable," Vera told Muirsay with great concern.

Muirsey's mood grew increasingly heavy.

How much longer will Amy hold on?

"Three days, at least three days. The vice principal needs to hold on for at least three more days, but if his injuries continue like this, he may never be able to stand up again."

Vera looked at the 'sun' in the sky with a conflicted expression.

The Ice Witch pierced Emilia's abdomen and also punctured her lumbar vertebrae. If treated in time, she will recover quickly due to her magical girl constitution.

But Emilia still needs to persevere in maintaining the freeze over the Antarctic glaciers.

"Let's prepare for the worst," Muirsay said heavily, taking a deep breath.

"Contact magical girls around the world, and be ready to stop the impact of a global tsunami."

"Let the Wind Witch Gem and the Ice Witch Gem try to touch them and see who can master them faster. We must race against time!"

Upon hearing this, Wei'er couldn't help but ask a question.

"Director? This kind of global tsunami, can we...can we really stop it?"

Although Vera had already become a B-rank magical girl, she couldn't help but feel uneasy when she heard Muirse's words about stopping the global tsunami.

Could magical girls really stop a tsunami of that scale?

"Have you tried it?" Muirseth suddenly revealed a relaxed and sweet smile. Vera and the other magical girls were all taken aback.

"How can we know we can't stop natural disasters if we don't try? Didn't we become magical girls to protect everyone?"

"Miracles do exist, because magical girls exist because of miracles. Believe in yourself, and believe in miracles."

Chapter 414 The First Wave of Impact

"This is the South Atlantic Seismological Service. We have detected a super-large undersea earthquake..."

"This is the South Pacific Seismological Service..."

"This is the South American Seismological Service..."

3 days after the Ice Witch incident ended

The Moth of Fire, along with the earthquake bureaus established urgently by various countries around the world, set up monitoring centers around the entire Antarctic Plate and immediately mobilized all geologists to keep a close eye on the situation of the Antarctic Plate.

Then, they watched as the Antarctic Plate gradually rose until massive undersea earthquakes began to erupt across the Southern Hemisphere.

Following urgent reports from earthquake bureaus around the world, representatives from various countries gathered in the auditorium of St. Freya Magical Girl Academy for another meeting.

Leaders from various countries are also constantly listening to the conversations relayed by their representatives.
