The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 684 Ultimate Fusion

As a villain, Su Tianqing has a complete understanding of what a villain is:

To find enjoyment in the main characters of the "royal road" genre, you must not hinder their growth, and even try to help them grow to a considerable level, so that you can reap even more enjoyment.

As for those evil villains who destroy cities, harm civilians, and rule the world... no matter how strong they are or how powerful they are, they will definitely be killed by the protagonist in a classic shonen storyline, without exception.

Only villains like Leziren can have the last laugh, and even after the anime's finale, they can still reappear to lead to a second season or OVA movie, making them far superior to those truly evil villains.

Therefore, having a clear self-awareness of the nature of the villain, he deeply implemented this determination when secretly manipulating the battle in the world of his mind as the mastermind:

"The octopus monster has received an unprecedented upgrade! Now, it exudes surging magical power, and its aura is in no way inferior to Qiu Gui and the others' super combined mecha!"

"But fueled by courage, Qiu Gui and the others still rushed forward to fight the monster, and actually drove the octopus monster out of the city's defenses!"

The UI in the live stream room had now been switched to a specially customized battle border—the left side depicted the tentacles of Monster 21, the right side showed the various vehicle parts of the combined mecha, and the top even featured a striking title with the words "[Super Enhanced Octopus Monster] Vs [Super Galaxy Seasonal Machine God Mk5000]".

The fox girl was unusually wrapped in a long-sleeved robe. Although she was covered with promotional stickers of cat paws, fox radishes, rabbit ears, and wolf heads, she didn't mind the audience's curiosity about this unprecedented image.

"Why is Fox wearing a long robe?" was one of the comments that floated across the SC screen.

Su Tianqing immediately spotted the bright and eye-catching SC comment and promptly provided ample emotional value:

"Thank you so much for the SC from FoxFoxBaoBao's mom! This robe was custom-made by everyone. Did you see all these stickers on me? It took Doggy and Bunny more than half an hour to put them on!"

Su Tianqing seemed to hear a strange cry of "I am a wolf!" coming from the horizon, but she ignored the sound, which seemed to be a hallucination, and continued to guide the attention of the live stream to the battle between monsters and mechs.

"Whoa! Oh no!"

"Just as we were distracted, the octopus monster used its tentacles to entangle Qiu Gui's combined mecha! This is terrible!"

The camera then switched to Bai Ling's main camera on the live stream screen.

The octopus monster used its tentacles to firmly bind the combined mecha's legs. Qiu Gui, piloting the mecha, clung to the nearby building to maintain her balance, while the magic cannon fiercely fired at the surging tentacles, attempting to cut off and destroy those things binding the mecha.

However, after being enhanced by the Crimson Mist, the octopus monster's regeneration ability seems to have been greatly improved—if the magic cannon fails to sever its tentacles in one shot, it will immediately regenerate to fill the wound, which poses a great challenge to the mech's burst firepower.

Fortunately, with the addition of Iris Flower, her precise control over the magic cannons on the shoulders of the combined mecha was also excellent. Three rounds of firing destroyed several thick tentacles. With Qiu Gui's own good handling of the mecha, it looked like she was about to break free from the tentacles' entanglement...

"...If it were that simple, it wouldn't be the final boss."

A joking voice rang out from afar.

Everyone was startled. Even Hyacinth, who was waiting to provide support, looked up at the source of the sound and met the gaze of a deep blue figure standing on the edge of an office building rooftop.

Hellcat stood on the rooftop, wearing a large robe and a cat mask that covered the upper half of her face, overlooking the battle between monsters and mechs not far away.

As she appeared, a deep blue magical lightning bolt suddenly entered the blood-red mist surrounding the monster. The giant octopus also experienced a sudden increase in magical power at this moment. Its previously destroyed tentacles re-emerged and instantly wrapped around the combined mecha's entire body!

"I knew it! It must have been Xin Yuehu and her gang who did this!"

Just like a student who finally found the answer 30 seconds before handing in the exam and was about to fill it in on the answer sheet only to find that they didn't bring a 2B pencil, Hyacinth pointed in the direction where the Hellcat appeared and shouted loudly.

Hellcat made no attempt to hide it, reaching out to remove the cat mask from its face. Its heterochromatic cat eyes glanced at Hyacinth with amusement, and a pleased smile appeared on its lips.

"Hehehe... Keep an eye on the hyacinths, the octopus monster is not just pretty."

"What's so good-looking about this thing?!" Hyacinth complained.

"Delicious food is also a form of visual appeal, but the audience on screen wouldn't understand."

Hellcat's statement was somewhat rambling, but the octopus monster's suppression of the combined mecha was highly effective.

The massive tentacles firmly restricted the movement of the joints, rendering the combined mech, which relied on physical movements to move, unable to escape despite its best efforts.

"Damn it! Move, Shiki-kijin! Why aren't you moving?!"

Qiu Gui paced anxiously in the cockpit, firing wildly at the magic cannon in an attempt to hit one or two targets by chance. However, under Hellcat's control, all the arms worked together, managing to raise the mech's cannon beam to the horizon, but failing to cause any damage.

"Click-clack, click-clack click-clack..."

As the arms and legs gradually contracted and narrowed, scorching magical sparks began to emerge from the joints of the mech's limbs, and the [Mech Damage] gauge in the cockpit began to climb rapidly.

"Body damage level...40%! And it's still rising!" Xia Jin loudly announced the scale.

"What should we do! Are we going to abandon the plane here...?" Chunlan said nervously.

"No, we absolutely cannot give up on the Four Seasons Mecha. Only its weapons can help us defeat that octopus monster. If we give up here, it's all over." Qiu Gui gritted her teeth, trying to save the mecha, but ultimately she couldn't break free from the octopus's tentacles.

Not only that, a cluster of magical light began to gather in front of the monster, clearly indicating that it was about to unleash a powerful attack to destroy the mech on the spot!

"Oh no...it looks like some outrageous attack is coming...!" "As long as we're alive, we can still manage to run out and rebuild a new mech!" "It's about to unleash its breath attack!!"

The cockpit was in complete chaos.

Qiu Gui stared blankly at the powerful, seemingly invincible monster before her, a sense of bewilderment rising within her.

Could it be that the battle between mechs and monsters that I've always dreamed of... is coming to an end...?

"Don't worry, there's always a way."

Iris suddenly left her gun position, walked to Qiugui's side, patted the senior on the shoulder, and looked with her at the display screen in front of the cockpit that kept popping up alarms, staring at the ball of magic light in front of the octopus monster that was almost charging to its limit.

"As long as we believe in the bonds between us and our comrades, we will surely be able to defeat any opponent."

Iris smiled and raised her wand, connecting to the magical communication system, and said loudly:

"It's your turn to shine, Hyacinth!"

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

At this moment, all the cameras turned to the heavily guarded building behind the combined mecha, focusing on the sky-blue girl on the rooftop.

Hyacinth—at this moment, she held her magic wand high, attracting everyone's attention, the tip of the wand shining with a dazzling light.

"Senior Qiugui! Now!"

"Additional combination!!"

A sky-blue light descended from the heavens, and a greatsword almost as tall as the combined mecha crashed down from the air, unleashing an incomparably sharp sword aura that severed all the tendrils that were wrapped around the mecha.

However, it failed to stop the octopus monster from unleashing its magical orb. A deep blue beam of magic erupted, threatening to destroy the combined mech that it couldn't dodge in time. But a one-handed shield arrived just in time and blocked the beam attack.

"Crack!!!"

The magic beam exploded, and the shockwave whipped up countless dust particles and fragments of tentacles, which flew in the night wind.

Viewers both in the live stream and in the Hero Association's screening room held their breath. Even Tian Nanxing's wagging tail froze at that moment, countless eyes fixed on the combined mecha that shone brightly from the dust—

"Whoosh!!"

Magic erupted, dust flew, and a brand-new combined mech appeared in the smoke.

The pristine white magic cannon rests on its shoulder, with a shield in its left hand and a greatsword in its right. The shield, having withstood the beam attack, is completely unharmed, and its front is adorned with the combined logo of the Four Seasons Machine Gods, gleaming with multicolored magical light.

It even had an extra layer of heavy sky-blue armor on its body, assuming an unbreakable shield-defense posture, with its greatsword held against the shield pointing straight forward, its imposing aura unmatched.

"Show us what we're made of, you giant monster!" Hyacinth's voice rang out from the mecha.

Magical Girl Hyacinth - Ultimate Fusion!

[Ultimate Four Seasons Machine God, Combined Attack!]

Deafening cheers erupted in the live broadcast room and the screening room.

Even Bai Ling couldn't help but cheer loudly, jumping and shouting at the filming location, wishing she could rush into the mecha and participate in the combination. The fox spirit desperately hugged her short legs to prevent Bai Ling from rushing out of the cover.

But when the stargazers turned to look at Hellcat, the smile on the catgirl's lips made Bai Ling and Yue Tianxin burst into laughter.

It was the expression of someone witnessing the birth of something new, as if they were quite looking forward to what was about to happen.

"Hehe, well done! I knew you could do it, Hyacinth." Hellcat grinned.

"In that case, use this battle to please me."
