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

Then the only option is for magical girls to personally build their own power and take the initiative to seize control.

Alicia had no such thoughts or intentions, but both Muirsey and Emilia knew that it was something that had to be done.

Reality is not a beautiful world; there is not much kindness or malice, only pure self-interest.

Many magical girls are too kind, yet they are incredibly powerful. The benefits that any political force gains from controlling magical girls as tools far outweigh the price paid, even if it's just a few lives.

Muirsey actually disliked these messy things, but she founded Rhine Labs precisely to avoid being affected by them.

Emilia felt the same way, but she and Muirse knew that as the senior magical girls of this generation, there were certain things that needed to be done.

In order to enable the younger magical girls to truly live a happy and wonderful life.

"Miumiu, we've arrived." Alicia turned around and looked at the silent Muelseth and Emilia, who was looking at the scenery outside.

At this time, many scientists were already waiting for Alicia and her group at the entrance of the Firemoth base. Of course, their main purpose was to bring out the Witch of Reason Gem and hand it over to Alicia and her group.

Alicia didn't say much and accepted the Witch of Reason's Gem.

However, she wasn't actually very good at using the powers within the Witch of Reason's Gem; only Muleseth was more familiar with them.

Alicia then handed the gem to Muirsey.

"Sigh," Muels sighed softly as she accepted the Witch of Reason's Gem, "I studied biology."

She held the Witch of Reason's Gem and gently closed her eyes.

Muelseth's magic almost dried up in an instant. Alicia immediately realized something was wrong and transferred her magic to Muelseth. Fortunately, a large part of Alicia's current magic was the magic that the Witch of Reason had purified before she used it.

But a large portion of the 3000HW of magic power evaporated instantly.

"...Mimi, what did you make with gemstones?"

"Hiss, no? You little dwarf, you're the mole, aren't you!"

While hiding in the subspace, Sirin saw what Muirsey had conjured and immediately contacted Bronya, angrily confronting her.

"what?"

Bronya was bewildered.

But then he was stunned when he saw what Muirse had created using the Herrscher of Reason core.

Actually, it's nothing special; it's just a relatively advanced probe capable of detecting objects in subspace, but not limited to subspace.

This was merely a relatively advanced detection technology that Bronya wrote into the database of the Herrscher of Reason core that she had created by hand. Compared to the database of the real Herrscher of Reason core, and the detection technology that Bronya could create that was truly at the pinnacle of technology, it was nothing to mention.

"Are you deliberately trying to trick me?" Sirin said angrily, though she didn't actually care about the detection equipment.

But for now, that's enough to pinpoint Sirin's location on Earth. Even if she's hiding in the subspace, unless Sirin escapes Earth or destroys that thing, she'll be discovered immediately.

"Um, I really didn't..." Bronya explained helplessly. She really just wrote some technical information into the database of the replica Herrscher of Reason core, and never expected it would cause such a mess for Sirin.

In fact, if Xilin were to choose to overturn the table, then any detection equipment would be meaningless.

If that's the case, why would she even bother playing this game?

"Hmph," Xilin didn't say anything more, just gave a soft hum.

Alicia has been warned that sooner or later she will use her magic to interfere with Sirin's spatial teleportation and spatial quakes, as well as the detection devices that will leave Sirin with nowhere to escape. Sirin knows that she has no way to deal with this in the first phase and will definitely have to leave the field temporarily.

Let's talk about it when the second phase of the game starts.

Sirin then told all the Herrschers something.

"Attention everyone, attention everyone! That little dwarf Bronya not only gave away her life at lightning speed, but she also messed up our first phase by giving Alicia and the others a technological cheat code!"

"The first phase of the game won't be so easy after that."

"Hmph, you little dwarf, you really are a traitor to our Herrschers!"

Chapter 384 The Second Great Collapse (6) - Exit

According to the original script, Alicia should have faced countless difficulties in resisting the attack of the witch/Herrscher.

Starting with Bronya, the four Herrschers Sirin, Raiden Mei, and Wendy form the first stage of beginner difficulty.

Then there are Anna, Seele, Himeko, and Rune, which are at the intermediate difficulty level.

The final advanced difficulty level consists of Eden, Mebius, Gretchen, and Ellie.

This allows Alicia to defeat numerous Herrschers step by step, obtaining their hastily crafted Herrscher Cores. After defeating the Herrscher of Corruption, Alicia, the game will enter its second phase.

In the first phase, as originally planned, all Herrschers, including Alicia herself, will be trained and grow in battles set on Earth.

Once the second phase begins, the Heralds should all be able to initially take control of their respective powers.

However, things went wrong right at the start of the first phase.

Bronya gave herself away at lightning speed, and even gave the Herrscher of Reason core to Alicia ahead of time.

That alone wouldn't affect anything, but who knows how much technological data Bronya stuffed into that Herrscher core? Without the database of this data, it would take Alicia and the others a long time to fully utilize the Herrscher of Reason core.

The script Sirin received was to destroy about twenty human cities and then confront Alicia and her group. Because Sirin's mobility was interfered with, she was ultimately defeated by Alicia, who was full of love and hope.

But now, before Sirin has even made a move on the second city, she is about to be discovered and forced into the battle.

"You little dwarf, you're such a jerk!"

Sirin was furious and appeared directly in front of Alicia. She knew that she would have to leave the first phase sooner or later, so she might as well show up now and go off to slack off.

At this moment, Alicia was still in a daze.

Because of something she did with the Witch of Reason's Gem, Muelsys consumed more than a thousand HW units of Alicia's magic power. Muelsys has now fainted due to the depletion of her magic power, but her consciousness has transferred to the clone she created.

Next to Muirsay was a ring-shaped device that looked very futuristic; its purpose was unknown.

The scientists present all had their eyes light up at the ring-shaped device, extremely curious about what it could do, and couldn't wait to go forward and take a look.

Only a few scientists ignored it and instead looked at Muirsey, who had fainted in Emilia's arms. These scientists included the old scientist who led the scientific team and Möbius of this world.

However, at that moment, a girl with purple hair and golden eyes, wearing a gorgeous purple dress, suddenly appeared in front of Alicia.

"This generation of magical girls is really weak," the purple-haired girl said with an extremely wicked smile.

"You are the Second Witch!" Alicia's eyes widened as she clearly sensed the incredibly dangerous and terrifying magical reaction of the purple-haired girl in front of her, who perfectly matched her own strike zone.

Alicia almost instinctively gripped the magic bow that had appeared in her hand.

But then, Alicia saw the purple-haired, golden-eyed girl raise her hand.

Visible spherical ripples appeared directly in her palm.

All the humans present felt an indescribable fear; every cell in their bodies was frantically telling them to run, run, run!

However, before Sirin could release the spatial tremor in her palm, Alicia swiftly fired several pink arrows at her.

At this moment, Alicia had only one thought in her mind: she had to stop the witch from unleashing her attack! Otherwise, everyone present, and this most prosperous city on the continent of Mu, would face utter destruction!

In addition to attacking with arrows, Alicia also charged directly at Sirin, attempting to engage her in close combat.

[So fast?] As soon as Sirin raised her hand, she was surprised to find that she had not been able to teleport Alicia's arrow to any other place.

The imaginary energy within Alicia followed Alicia's thoughts and indeed interfered with Sirin's powers.

Sirin began to increase the use of her powers, forcibly throwing the arrows directly to other places.

However, this also forced Sirin to release the spatial quake on a small scale ahead of schedule, instantly creating an annihilation zone one meter wide around Sirin.

However, Alicia had already rushed in front of Sirin, and the pink magic bow in her hand had transformed into a pink energy longsword, which she thrust directly into Sirin's chest.

Sirin also used her magic to conjure a large pair of scissors to block it.

"...Is this how you play?" She frowned and immediately tried to create distance. Alicia's powers were now mostly being used to interfere with Sirin's powers.

In other words, Sirin can no longer use her powers.

She suddenly realized that she had appeared in front of Alicia somewhat rashly. She should have stayed far away and thrown a spacequake. Seven or eight such quakes would have been enough to annihilate all the humans except for Alicia and the other two magical girls.

Alicia remained silent, only launching a relentless attack.

Whenever Sirin tried to create distance to launch a spacequake, she would always face attacks and interference from those pink arrows, preventing her from launching a large-scale spacequake in time.

However, even though it was just a small-scale spatial tremor, it completely annihilated everything within a radius of hundreds of meters except for Alicia and Sirin.

Emilia pulled Muirses away from the battlefield for the time being. She did not join the attack on the Second Witch. Emilia's combat strength was not yet capable of engaging in such a battle. She had tried carefully, but she could not interfere with the Second Witch.

Some of the scientists who had taken cover looked at the terrifying battlefield with lingering fear; this was an enemy that humanity simply could not resist.

Those who did not immediately dodge have already been turned into elementary particles, as witnessed by some of the survivors.

"The energy reactions on the battlefield are extremely intense; absolutely nothing can survive such an energy clash!"

Despite having just escaped mortal danger, some scientists immediately began analyzing the situation on the battlefield, with its incomprehensible energy fluctuations clashing.

Furthermore, that energy was directly molded into cold weapons.

"But that looks a lot like a duel with cold weapons."

"It's only because Miss Alicia didn't dare let that witch dodge; otherwise, we would have been fortunate enough to see a hemispherical attack zone with a radius of 50 kilometers."

"The entire city will be destroyed!"

Muirse woke up slowly in Emilia's arms.

"Is that a witch?" She immediately noticed the situation on the battlefield. Alicia was holding a long sword and was desperately fighting the witch, but the witch was holding a pair of scissors and seemed to be fighting Alicia very easily.

"Amy" Muerseth grasped Emilia's hand tightly, and the meaning in her eyes made Emilia nod, transferring her magic into Muerseth's depleted body.

This amount of magic wasn't enough for Muleseth to continue using the Witch of Reason gem in her possession, but it was sufficient to activate some special things.

After obtaining a portion of the magic power, Muirsey immediately remotely activated a hidden little base within this base, which she used as a safe house to store special items.

For example, there's a small, unique-looking robot with incredibly sharp, pointed legs that looks terrifying.

Muirse's gaze then shifted to the military command interface, the command interface of the Witch of Reason's army, which Muirse controlled and disguised as Rhine Lab. After six months of secret development, Rhine Lab had grown to a considerable size, possessing all the buildings that the original Witch of Reason's army had constructed, including several Iron Curtain devices and nuclear missile silos, all well-disguised.

Muirsey then activated the quadruped robot, sending it rushing here at high speed.

Fortunately, the distance wasn't far, and the quadruped robot quickly arrived near the battlefield. Muirsey then put the Iron Curtain on the unique little thing and controlled the quadruped robot to rush towards Sirin.

"Hmm?" Sirin heard a rustling sound, and then saw a dark, four-legged robot appear in her eyes.

Upon seeing this thing, Sirin's expression immediately darkened.

this thing

The quadruped robot itself is nothing special; the key is the layer of black particles on its body. Sirin remembers that it was a technology that Bronya had asked her to work on during her spare time. It was used to replicate the device in the game, which is now the Invincible Iron Curtain on the quadruped robot.

This thing is essentially just a facade for the Iron Curtain, achieving the same effect as in the game. It's actually technology that Bronya and Sirin created using their Herrscher authority. While the Iron Curtain isn't truly invincible, it does provide temporary invincibility.

The spatial tremor in Sirin's hand immediately erupted, but just as Sirin had expected, the spatial tremor had no effect on the quadruped robot covered by the iron curtain. It strode forward with its sharp metal limbs and continued to charge towards Sirin.

Although she knew that the invincibility effect was time-limited, Sirin's power was now being strongly interfered with by Alicia's power, preventing her from jumping long distances or entering the subspace.

"That shorty! He's a real rip-off! He even gave us the technical data for this thing!"

The moment that thought crossed her mind, the quadruped robot lunged at Sirin. However, she did nothing, letting the dark quadruped robot pierce her chest and then slash wildly with its sharp metal limbs.

Sirin's body was cut into dozens of pieces, but no blood flowed out. The cuts, which should have been made of bones, internal organs, and blood vessels, only emitted a faint white light.

"Damn it!!!" Sirin roared in anger, her shattered body turning into white light and disappearing before Alicia and the others.

Only one purple rhombus-shaped gem remained in place, corresponding to another silver Witch of Reason gem.

Back at St. Freya Academy, Sirin glared at Bronya, who was grinning smirk.

Chapter 385 The Void of Existence

Alicia stared blankly at the battlefield before her, as the iron curtain on the quadruped robot slowly dissipated.

A gentle breeze caressed her pink hair, and her deep blue eyes gazed silently at the purple rhombus-shaped gemstone that gleamed sharply in the sunlight.
