Sitting on the top of the hundred-story Century Tower, overlooking the night view formed by countless lights in the city, the night wind blew, the clothes flowed, and the cigarette in my hand suddenly became bright.

I puffed hard and smoked the cigarette to the end. With a flick of my finger, I dropped the cigarette butt from the 100-storey high school. After exhaling a long smoke, I stood up. In addition to loneliness, I felt endless pain in my heart.

Although it is a bit abrupt, please allow me to introduce myself first. I am a time traveler, my name is Rossi, I am 15 years old and 1.53 meters tall. My hobby is COSPLAY, especially women's clothing. Because I have been influenced by my parents' interests since I was a child.

But I didn't hate it. Instead, I felt extremely proud of myself for having a baby face and wearing women's clothes without any sense of disobedience.

As for my current situation, it is because when I was cosplaying at a comic exhibition, I was struck by lightning and traveled to this world, the earth in this parallel world.

Although it is said to be a parallel world, except that it is also the third planet in the solar system, it has nothing in common with the original world. There is no Chinese dynasty, no District 11, and no American country. None of the countries that should have existed in the original world are here.

No. And the country here is completely unknown to me. But the biggest problem is that half of the earth in this world is occupied by alien tentacle monsters; seventy or eighty years ago on this earth

Encountered an alien invasion, humanity was almost wiped out. After decades of struggle, it finally launched a massive counterattack 30 years ago, and now it has finally taken back half of the Earth.

The symbol of those who fight alien tentacle monsters is - magical girls.

However, I traveled to the battlefield of this world, and because I was wearing women's clothing, I signed a contract to become a magical girl for no reason.

Well, although it seems to be the same as the protagonist, magical girls are not uncommon in this world, and ordinary magical girls are just ordinary combatants. According to statistics, there are at least one to two million magical girls in the army.

.

Similarly, male magical girls are not a rare thing. In special cases, there are magical aunts, magical mothers-in-law, magical old men, magical office workers, even magical strong men, and magical fitness coaches, to name a few.

Of course, when they transform and wear those fluttering cosplay costumes, they already have powerful lethality just by posing.

And such a featureless me, after nine months on the front line, I left the front line and came to this - Starry Sky City - to become a special guard member to protect the city.

This city is located relatively close to the border, and there are sometimes invasions by alien tentacle monsters that slip through the safety net. Once they are allowed to sow seeds and multiply in the city, cleaning them up will require a lot of manpower; and although ordinary people in this world still have

Although they are in the majority, there are also many civilians with combat capabilities, especially in border cities, where there is a mixture of good and bad, and it is impossible to tell when a battle will break out. It is quite easy for a soldier with actual combat experience like me to get a position in this city.

Moreover, although magical girls are also regular combatants, compared to the cyborgs, there are half-tentacled people with alien blood, which are obviously more popular with the public. After all, most contracted elves like to look for cute and pure girls.

Sign the contract.

Well, of course there are exceptions, like my contract elf.

"Hey, Rosie, cigarette, give me a cigarette."

When I heard the call, I took out a cigarette from my pocket and threw it behind me.

"Wow!" someone exclaimed from behind. You didn't need to look back to know that she was in a panic, and then came the harsh words. "Tsk, what kind of attitude is this? Why don't you die, you bastard."

I have long been used to facing bad words, as long as I ignore them.

Soon, the sound source behind him flew next to him.

It was the size of a palm, an elf in an emerald green dress. If she wasn't holding a lit cigarette and having a good time, and putting on a stinky face that said you owe her money; instead, she had a cute face.

Smile, maybe it will be cute.

These are contract elves. Like me, they are not natives of this world. They have different shapes, but most of them can be described as cute and righteous. Their duty is to abide by an unknown covenant and find themselves in this world.

Contractors, fighting alien tentacles.

Although I heard that most of the contract elves are upright and kind-hearted, and most of the contractors they are looking for are also the same; but it is strange that the one in front of me is an exception.

Her name is Jade, and she has been in this world for more than 40 years. She always boasts that she is a senior. She especially hates the naive and romantic juniors who have just arrived, and will often curse the other party's contractor who was attacked by an alien tentacle that day [Autonomous Regulation]

]; and being able to be attracted by her and form a contract to become a magical girl obviously shows that I am not a good bird either.

There is no fixed number of times that a Contract Elf can make contracts with people. Some will only contract with one human being, while others will contract with thousands or tens of thousands of people.

Counting me, Jade has four contracted magical girls. Although I am actually a boy, let’s put aside my gender and let’s talk about my other three seniors. None of them followed Jade, not even whereabouts.

They don't know. Although the contract elves can vaguely sense the direction and distance between them, they are obviously not in this city. I heard that the nearest senior is also 700 kilometers away.

But according to Jade, the three of them are also elite veterans in the industry, and their personalities are in line with Jade's taste. Well, although she is the same, the magical girl who can contract with her obviously has a better character.

go.

Jade also has a laissez-faire attitude towards me, but Jade and I have a common goal of action, and she also needs my strength to help her with intelligence activities, so she formed a team with me.

But now, in order to collect intelligence, I need some money, and as a combatant like me, the fastest way to earn money is to earn money from alien tentacles.

Now I am waiting on this high tower for the opportunity to make money; today the battle report was sent from the front line, and a cruiser-level alien tentacle monster broke through the front line and was flying towards this side; it means that the people in this city are

People can do it themselves.

Things like this often happen in frontline cities, and even ordinary citizens below are used to it. However, it is just a cruiser, which is not enough to trigger martial law and organize evacuation. Even such small-scale attacks are regarded as

entertainment items.

When the tentacle monsters arrive, all the magical girls will take off, and some regular troops and some mercenaries will also join the battle group. A large-scale air battle will be staged above the city, and the onlookers in the city below will even cheer for us.

, it’s time to start gambling.

Look at the time, 23:00, adjust the magic power of your eyes to gain the ability to see far away, observe the monsters that are still on the way, and make a judgment. If you are at this distance, you will encounter the enemy in 15 minutes.

And my goal tonight is the power furnace of this cruiser-level tentacle monster. It is the most valuable part, and there is only one. The competition is fierce, so I should give it my all as soon as it comes up!

I kissed the ring on my right index finger and said at the same time.

"Metamorphose"

A pink light enveloped me, and then lights of different colors lit up all over the city.

After the light passed, my clothes had turned into a pure white sailor suit with pink collar and a pink ultra-short pleated skirt. I was wearing a beret decorated with cherry blossoms. My hair also changed from black to pink, bright yellow and huge. The bow is tied to the chest, and there is a pair of cute pink wings on the waist that flutter and emit a shimmer. Then there are the indispensable long and short socks, and finally the pink princess shoes.

Well, although it looks like just a cute sailor suit, it doesn't have any obvious visual features. Compared with many magical girl transformation costumes, it may be considered inconspicuous.

Transformation clothing is the symbol of a magical girl, but that's all. The clothing itself will not provide you with any protection. What protects your body is the 1mm invisible energy field floating on the skin; but transformation clothing is still necessary. , as mentioned just now, it is the symbol of every magical girl. In military terms, it is an identity dog ​​tag, so it is a troublesome procedure to legally change the costume.

As for why I want to make the transformation costume so simple, this is the experience of being on the front line. The so-called shooting leads to the first bird. The alien tentacles have a brain. The more fancy they are, the higher the chance of being targeted. Because they are Most of the newbies are wearing fancy clothes, which will definitely become the target of the tentacles. And even if you are a magical girl, you have to face war after all. If the clothes are too fancy, once the movement and mobility are restricted, it will be very difficult. It is easy to lose your life.

There are only two types of people who wear fancy attire on the battlefield, one is a novice who is just starting out and has a low survival rate, and the other is a terrifying strong man who has absolute strength and is full of bad taste.

Who are the strong ones? As far as I know, they are the seventeen people from the two groups formally known as the Twelve Spiritual Thrones and the Five Ancient Witches.

"Oh~~!" The heavy and huge sound wave formed wind pressure, and a part of the city was hit by the strong wind.

"Is it finally here, prey?"

Hot blood immediately flowed through my body, and I was just waiting for the best opportunity to take off immediately.

In the distance, the assault fort on the edge of the city began to roar with barrages.

Thousands of orange-red projectiles hit the monster's body, causing patches of fiery red light.

However, the monster did not slow down and continued to move forward in an orderly manner.

This is natural. The seemingly powerful barrage is just a low-end firepower. This kind of barrage does not even use 5% of the city's defense and attack mechanism. However, the opponent is just a cruiser. Level, there is no need to be serious at all.

Otherwise, tonight's hunting will be impossible.

The monster advanced further and finally reached the war warning line.

At this time, the barrage had knocked out a large portion of the monster's shield energy, and a small section of the carapace layer had also been torn off. The barrage also began to converge until it ceased fire, and the city's shield began to work to connect it.

Thousands of nodes floating in the air formed a shield over the city, shrouding the entire city before the tentacle monsters arrived.

"it's time."

I pushed my feet hard and flew straight into the sky. At the same time, various light spots in the city lit up and flew up together. I took out my portable mission terminal and called up the information. There were 135 people participating in this hunt.

, including 39 magical girls, 68 cybernetics, and 28 black people (half-tentacled people).

As expected, the prey is still not up to par. There are not many aerial combatants appearing this time, which is good, at least the competition will not be too fierce.

However, there is one character on the list that requires serious attention, especially one of the magical girls - codenamed Blazing Wing. She is one of the strongest combat forces in the city. Her specialty is energy wide-area attacks.

The number of kills and destructive power are unmatched by anyone in this city. By the way, she is nearly thirty years old and is probably unmarried, so she should be considered a magic queen.

But having said that, it will definitely be troublesome if she is here, not that she will steal prey from me, but that she will completely blow the entire tentacle monster into pieces.

As long as she is around, every hunt will not yield good trophies. Although she will not conduct a wide-area attack within the first 15 minutes of such a hunting situation, this is an unwritten agreement; but at the same time

It also represents a time limit. When we cannot achieve the goal within 15 minutes, we have to retreat from the battlefield, because her wide-area attack will not wait for anyone, and directly covers the monster's body. With her firepower, it will not escape

In 5 minutes, the entire monster will turn into fly ash, together with the people who have not come out of the monster's body.

She is the kind of person who doesn't care about exchanging some materials for money. She has the rank of major and is also a very high-ranking person in power in this city. This guy will destroy people's business as soon as he appears. He is like a plague. As for whether she has any ideas

I don't want to pay attention to it.

And the final list also includes three or five novice magical girls. Well, I hope they won't risk their lives in it excitedly. After all, they are all young girls.

Put your mind away, the enemy has entered the sky above the edge of the city, there are still 13.18 kilometers away from the enemy, and there are still 87 seconds before contact with the enemy.

The hunt is about to begin.
Chapter completed!
