Yes, I did all this!

Although she appears irritable, Yuhi is not really that reckless.

"...Yeah, that's how it's done in horror movies."

Feng Ling nodded with a serious face, and half of the floating sword wings behind him dispersed:

"Then, I will use them to search first, and let's search together."

"Um."

The magical girls nodded and gathered together to explore.

"It's a pity. I was looking forward to saying hello to them one by one after they dispersed."

——On the column, Duanmu Mo sat on the edge and crossed his legs and smiled.

"Then don't think too much. Although they are still very immature, they are all qualified warriors."

Behind him, Cang Yi suddenly appeared here and said.

"Oh? How did you find me? Did the weird aura around me cover up my existence?" Duanmumo turned his head, surprised but not surprised.

"You used your own power to transform my drive, and I can naturally find your existence in turn."

Walking to Duanmu Mo's side, Cang Yi snorted coldly: "Seeing that there are no traces of destruction around, I knew you must be hiding somewhere and observing us."

"Then you are wrong."

Duanmumo smiled and stared at the magical girls in the distance.

"I'm not just observing you, but also other people."

"Then observe carefully and confirm their growth and consciousness." Cangyi turned his head and looked at him as if through the mask:

"I just don't know what role you play in their lives."

Volume One: Chapter 283: Picture within Picture

...

"Speaking of which."

In the field of oil paintings, Xihi looked at the people searching everywhere and said:

"We don't actually need to find a painter, right?"

"What do you mean... wait?"

Lingyin turned her head and was about to ask a question when she suddenly realized and opened her mouth.

After attracting everyone's attention, Xiri said: "Cangyi said that we can just destroy the paintings. So, wouldn't it be better to skip the steps of finding the paintings and destroy them directly?"

Under their gazes, Yuhi raised her hand, and flames ignited in her hand.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Feng Chime frowned and pulled up a piece of grass from the ground.

The grass melted in her hands, turning back into paint and falling from her hands.

"These scenery don't seem to be combustible. What's more, Yuhi, you just consumed a lot of energy in the battle with the killer whale. You can't burn the whole place, right?"

"Try using my combined powers?" Lingyin said, "I think we can try."

"Then let's get started!"

Xiri was a little eager to give it a try, so Lingyin lifted her and Huangyi up with the wind, and the four of them flew high into the sky above the portrait.

"——It seems like people are going to disturb us here too."

In the distance, Duanmu Mo said lightly. With a move of his hand, a black vortex swallowed him and Cang Yi.

When they reappeared, the two of them were already in the shadow of the sketch, and the black substance formed something like black mist, hiding their figures.

"Look carefully, the borders here are also made of paper." Looking at the texture of the paper on the wall of the world in the painting in the distance, Yuhi smiled and released the fireball and threw it towards the ground.

The fireball moves very slowly, but the power contained within is still amazing.

Lingyin also raised his hand, and the emerald green tornado engulfed the fireball, dispersing its power and burning violently on the ground.

Seeing this, Duanmumo clapped his hands in the distance and said happily: "Haha, I'm used to such a direct style."

But Cang Yi shook his head: "Don't be careless, the painter will not be defeated so easily. Calculating the time, it should be finished soon."

"What does it mean to finish painting?"

Duanmumo turned his head, looked at Cang Yi who suddenly became silent again, and sighed helplessly: "Don't be the Riddler all the time, okay? I won't leak it out casually."

"...When people enter this space, it also begins to draw people's postures. After the painting is completed, that's when it fights back."

岲卡——

As soon as Cangyi finished speaking, Duanmumo saw Xiri in the distance suddenly seeming to feel something, and raised his hands to block him in front of him.

There was a sound that tore through the wind shield, leaving a deep ink mark on her arm and tearing apart the armor on her arm.

"Forehead--"

"Yuhi-senpai?!"

Others screamed in shock, looking at the injuries that Yuhi suddenly suffered...

——This picture appeared on the paper. The surprise on Yuhi's face and the gestures of others opening their mouths and exclaiming were all solidified in the form of oil painting on the paper.

"hey-hey......"

A dark, twisted figure sat in front of the drawing board, looking at his work with a sinister smile.

It picked up a sharp paintbrush in its hand and drew hard on the paper with blood-red paint——

Bala!

Sharp blood-red scratches passed in front of the magical girls, cutting their bodies open.

"Uh-huh!"

Sharp scratches cut through their defenses. Except for the wind chime, the bodies of the other magical girls felt as if they had been slashed by knives, with blood overflowing from their bodies.

"What's wrong! What happened just now."

Yuhi opened her eyes wide, clutched her bleeding abdomen and cried out in pain.

"I didn't notice it either. The wind around me told me... this attack seemed to appear suddenly!"

"Sister! Are you okay?"

Feng Ling was not hurt in the shield, but still didn't realize what happened here. She only saw a thin red line left outside her shield.

"..."

Listening to the words of the three people, Huang Yi covered her arm. If she hadn't resisted just now, it would not be the skin of her arm that was cut, but her neck.

While she was still in shock, she also thought about it.

——In the previous training, in addition to the daily boring morning jogging, there was also the control of the power of the magic girl.

Cang Yi said that everything changes but remains the same. As long as the understanding of her own power is improved, everything will be improved.

And now, she vaguely felt that she was alert in her heart the moment before this attack came.

...... But this feeling was still too vague, so that she was not sure at that moment.

Huang Yi hesitated, the crowd was alert and uneasy, and the painter's arms were stiffly and neatly painting on the drawing board, and soon they appeared vividly in it.

"Here it comes again!"

When Huang Yi tried his best to spread lightning and amplify his senses, the weak but unignorable feeling appeared again. Huang Yi suddenly sheathed the sword and quickly swung out the sword energy.

Boom!

The sword energy and the ink that suddenly appeared collided with each other, but even so, some of it splashed on Feng Ling's shield.

"Is this... paint?" Looking at the marks on the shield, Feng Ling showed a puzzled look.

Feng Ling's eyes flashed the scene just now. The direction of the attack just now was very strange. The four magical girls were in different positions, but the attack seemed to happen on a plane.

"Cang Yi said that the guy would use a picture in a picture to attack us... Does this mean that we are now in its painting?"

Ordinary people may not react so quickly, but Feng Ling is different. With the Zero System, she instantly built a plane map in her mind.

Thinking faster than anyone else, Feng Ling's eyes showed a look of understanding.

"Everyone, this weirdo's attack is very strange, just like Cang Yi said... It's like we are in a painting, and it attacks us outside the painting."

"Outside the painting..."

Huang Yi felt a flash of inspiration and understood the means of this weirdo's attack.

At the moment she understood, another attack came. Huang Yi immediately looked in the direction of the attack, but she couldn't dodge in time, and her body was hit by a knife.

"Huang Yi!"

Although the others were not as sharp as her, they were always vigilant in defense, so the damage they suffered was not obvious.

On the other hand, Huang Yi was cut on the leg again, and blood gushed out of it, dripping down her boots and falling into the sea of ​​fire that was still burning on the ground.

"It's right there... I'm fine!"

Huang Yi gritted his teeth and held the sword, jumped down on his own initiative, endured the pain in his thigh, and jumped into the sea of ​​fire.

The others were shocked and hurriedly followed.

Falling to the ground, the surroundings were all filled with rising flames, reflecting the scenery here red.

"What are you doing! Is it okay?!"

"...... I have a feeling that the attack seems to come from here."

Huang Yi held the sword, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes.

With the current self, there is no way to withstand another blow.

But feeling the protection of the giant whale on his body, the sense of security made Huang Yi concentrate on the changes around him.

The sword in his hand was covered with lightning, Huang Yi closed his eyes, and purple arcs began to flash in the surrounding area.

——In the deep space, the black figure raised its several arms holding the brush and began to paint on the new drawing board.

The defensive movements of the surrounding magic girls were instantly drawn by it, as well as the figure of the magic girl holding the sword who used lightning.

"Hehe."

The burning scenery was outlined by it with red paint, and the next moment, the flames also appeared from the paper, burning the drawing paper.

However, when the flames surrounded the magic girls, the magic girl who had closed her eyes opened her eyes on the drawing paper.

"Found it!"

For some reason, the burning sensation spread all over her body, and the whole body was burning with flames. Huang Yi opened her eyes wide to feel the direction of the breath, and her body disappeared instantly.

When she appeared again, she swung a knife at a ball of flames - in her feeling, the direction of the breath was here.

With a slash, in the bright red flames, a piece of red paper that almost merged with the surrounding flames was cut off flatly.

——Can this red paper be considered a painting?

A doubt even rose in Huang Yi's heart, but it was not until now that she thought that it seemed that from the search just now until now, they didn't even find a piece of paper.

Squeak!

When the sword split the paper in two, black gas gushed out from it, forming a huge black shadow in the air.

You can't see its true appearance, or this guy's body looks like this.

The giant appeared in the city formed by the painting, waving countless hands stiffly, each holding a paintbrush.

"Hehe~"

Under the huge body, the densely packed hands moved slowly, looking disgusting and horrifying.

"Is that the painter's true body..."

The body was slowly burning, Huang Yi half-knelt down, looking at it weakly.

Others were not much better than her. The burning of the drawing paper made them unbearable. In addition, after the previous battle with the giant whale, even if the body of this monster had appeared, they had no ability to fight.

"Hehehe~"

Listening to the uncomfortable laughter coming from the monster's mouth, countless arms waved gently, drawing lines in the air.
