Chapter 65
"...Why are these negative beasts here?"
"I don't know, but it's obvious that they are here to cause trouble for us."
"Tsk, it's just my birthday that's the time for this kind of thing! Fortunately, there are no other ordinary people around here."
Looking at the giant ant blocking their way, Wu Yue was a little panicked at first, but soon, she frowned, took a deep breath, clenched her right hand into a fist, and placed it in front of the ruby on her neck.
Then, she turned her head and looked at Youyu, saying in an urgent tone:
"Youyu, you should ride away on your bike first, or run away. You got hurt because of us a few times before. This time, I can't let you get hurt again!"
"Well, I also know this. If I stay here, it will hinder your battle."
"But..."
As he said that, Youyu took a look at the surrounding environment-
An empty street, it was indeed an empty street before.
But... after he drove his motorcycle and "accidentally" rushed in here, he found that the road behind him was cut off by a black barrier.
Obviously, the enemy had an intention to drive them in here.
"So, this is a trap set by the enemy."
"...Is that so."
After listening to Youyu's explanation, Wu Yue lowered her head and was silent for a while, then raised her head and looked at him, with an extremely serious expression, and said:
"It's okay, Youyu, I will protect you well!"
"Those monsters... I won't let them get close to you!"
"So, please watch! My transformation, my battle!"
After saying this, a pink light flashed on Wu Yue's body in an instant, rushing towards the eyes of those giant ant monsters, which was extremely dazzling!
After the light disappeared, the girl who was as dazzling as the sun appeared in front of Youyu, the magical girl Firebird!
After seeing her transformation, Youyu did not show a happy look, but said earnestly:
"Wuyue, you must be more careful when you fight later. The enemy has locked us here, not just to let these three monsters deal with us, there must be other cards..."
"So, please, definitely, make your own safety the top priority!"
"Okay! I know!"
After responding to Youyu's words, Wuyue skillfully prepared for a sprint, and then the next moment, the ground under her heels suddenly cracked, and her whole body flew out like a cannonball, using her burning fist to hit the red ant blocking the two silver ants!
"Hiss--!"
Listening to the roar of the red ant and looking at the flames burning on it, Youyu nodded, quite satisfied with its current condition.
Although Wuyue's mood has been in a low state recently, her combat ability has not weakened, but has improved a lot.
It seems... Wu Yue is not as fragile as he thought. In the past period of time, his view of Wu Yue may be wrong in some aspects.
"Now, call Bai Yu over as well."
Although Youyu was standing by and watching, he was not idle. While Wu Yue was fighting, he directly called and told Bai Yu about their current situation.
"What?! I'll be there right away!!"
After listening to Youyu's words, Bai Yu on the other end of the phone hung up the phone in a hurry and rushed over here.
And after doing all this——
Youyu finally had time to plan what he should do next.
"That Night Demon... should have some ideas about me. Fortunately, I also have..."
"But... just in case."
While planning something in his heart, Youyu said to Him:
"Mamba, it's time to wake up."
————
"Hu... Hu..."
The perspective returned to the battlefield.
Now... Wu Yue's current situation is a little bad, but only a little, not too bad.
Mental slackness... that's basically it.
However, because of these "bad" things, she was inevitably slack in spirit, and those giant ants bypassed her and attacked You Yu directly -
So, this is the current situation. You Yu's motorcycle has been beaten to pieces. Except for the cake he was still holding, the results of their trip today can be said to be all invalid.
"... Why."
Looking at the three ants in front of her that had been burnt black and had broken limbs, Wu Yue was puzzled."Why are these monsters so fast? And they are all heading for Youyu?"
Moreover, these ants seem to be covered with a thick layer of metal plates, with thick skin and flesh, and it is difficult to penetrate them. Even if you want to penetrate them, it will take a lot of time.
Although their attack power is nothing to Wu Yue, for ordinary people... it is just like cutting melons and vegetables.
"It feels like... these monsters are specially made for Youyu!"
When Wu Yue thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Although Youyu has not suffered any harm under her protection so far, what if it takes too long? What if she relaxes and fails to protect Youyu?
What if...
"... No, I can't think like that anymore!"
Before the guess in her mind became worse, Wu Yue shook her head and stopped thinking about this matter in time.
Then, she cheered up again, looked at the giant ant in front of her, and took a fighting stance.
Before, she had doubted whether she could protect Youyu, but that time was different from now. At that time, she did not have a "sense of urgency" and could think slowly and get through it slowly.
But now... it is absolutely impossible! In this kind of battle, in this kind of time when failure or even death is possible at any time, the most taboo thing is "confusion"!
Whether it is for Youyu or for other ordinary people, she must cheer up!
"Besides, Youyu just said that he has notified Bai Yu and she will come over later..."
"So, as long as we can hold on until Bai Yu arrives, the current battle should change!"
Anyway, after she has continuously weakened these three giant ants, their momentum and combat effectiveness are no longer as strong as at the beginning.
As long as Bai Yu comes again, it will definitely not be a problem to destroy them!
So.
Tonight... whether it is her birthday or Youyu's life.
She will definitely, definitely protect it!
"Huh... Let's start the fifth round--"
"Puff--!"
However, just as Wu Yue was ready to attack again, a crisp sound of something piercing through came from behind her.
"..."
"?"
At first, she thought that it was just the sound made by the monsters to cover up their actions, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
However, thinking of Youyu, for Youyu's safety, she turned her head and looked at him.
Then...
She saw this scene--
A black arm pierced through Youyu's back to his chest.
And... the red cake that had fallen to the ground and turned into a mess, not knowing whether it was because of its own color or stained by some unknown liquid.
