Tokyo: My Superpower Refreshes Every Week-Chapter 708 - 706: The Large-Scale Team Battle Begins

The snowstorm whirled around, bringing a refreshing chill.

Ayatsuki Ayaka stood at the outskirts of the base, her colorful hair styled into a neat ponytail. The short sleeves imprinted with a bloody hand and a skull were lifted high, outlining a curvaceous silhouette.

Thus her waist appeared somewhat bloated.

Below were black wide-leg sweatpants with bright red Chinese characters spelling out "Night Gives Death", paired with sports shoes.

She watched from afar.

The gigantic, indistinct shadow of a demon was now clearly visible.

It was a colossal bear standing amidst heaven and earth, its fur snow-white, yet some parts were light blue, forming streaks that wrapped around its body like lightning.

The bear stood upright like a human, with conspicuous blue crystalline structures rising skyward from its shoulders, resembling massive ice spikes embedded upon them.

The bear's claws were pitch-black.

Amidst the storm, its massive form resembled the majesty of the Himalayas, full of imposing, immovable weight.

"Roar!" The gigantic bear let out a tremendous roar, overpowering the howl of the snowstorm, resonating like thunder throughout the sky and earth.

Its fur stood up like spears and its fangs were bared, the snow swirling, as if the earth itself trembled in this instant.

Figures hurried in from behind.

"Gulp."

Ayatsuki Ayaka swallowed hard, instinctively shrinking behind Aozawa, hiding her full curves behind his broad shoulders.

Only then did she muster the courage to look at the bear's feet, where roughly hundreds of demons stood.

The number was the most Ayatsuki Ayaka had ever seen.

Their appearance was strikingly uniform, resembling miniature versions of the giant bear, measuring twenty meters, or thirty to forty meters.

Except their shoulders lacked those crystalline structures.

After the bear's roar, those white bears charged forward en masse.

They ran and spread out across the vast snowy plain, driven by the storm, as if an avalanche were rushing from ahead.

Ayatsuki Ayaka gripped her Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, ready to act, when a clear voice spoke in her ear.

"Let us not engage them here. I'll create a whirlwind to the left; do not resist, follow the wind in a mobile battle.

Those with long-range abilities, attack the smaller demons below first, targeting the front-left area."

This voice was Maggie!

Ayatsuki Ayaka looked around, finding Phoenix Academy Maggie within the crowd.

"I, Phoenix Academy Maggie, will command this operation."

She announced the decision made in the tent.

Beside her stood a round African girl, her face as round as her body, with black long hair styled into dreadlocks, and wearing a gleaming bracelet.

Whenever Phoenix Academy Maggie spoke, the bracelet would flash, automatically conveying her words to the present trial participants.

Everyone gathered here had volunteered to defeat the Unicorn and save the world, young individuals with convictions.

There wouldn't be any underhanded maneuvers; showcasing enough ability meant gaining recognition.

Phoenix Academy Maggie was the first to raise the flag against the Unicorn in front of television media, and as a Prime Minister's daughter, her fame was sufficient, along with her capability to command and manage a hundred and eight people.

Morimoto Chiyoda also had ability and fame but did not compete with Phoenix Academy Maggie.

The other contender for leadership was David.

The Mayor of New York, a Saint Heir, his reputation spread globally, resounding even more than Phoenix Academy Maggie.

But David understood his own capabilities.

He didn't believe he could better manage a hundred and eight people.

He chose to heed Phoenix Academy Maggie's directives.

In his view, leadership was unrelated to age or status; if someone was capable, even adults should set aside such vanity and diligently follow the orders of a young girl.

Phoenix Academy Maggie also lived up to their expectations, promptly formulating a battle strategy upon encountering the giant bear and smaller ones.

Attacking together would surely be tough.

Her idea was to employ a mobile battle, using the kite strategy to prioritize elimination of the smaller demons, then focus their efforts on the larger one.

While discussing earlier, Phoenix Academy Maggie also organized the team into divisions.

Those with repeat-use Magical Treasures were to give their single-use ones to those without repeat-use treasures.

Increasing the quantity of their single-use treasures, and further dividing them into defense, attack, and support categories.

She believed that an army was the best model for human collective action.

Especially in battle.

Phoenix Academy Maggie assigned responsibilities to each person so when something occurred, that individual would know their duty without needing to think.

Humanity's triumph over beasts, becoming the planet's dominant force, wasn't due to individual prowess, but learning cooperation and utilizing wisdom.

No experiment or research result is completed by an individual alone.

Investors, experimental materials, aiding parties, and others.

Even those who consider themselves lone wolves benefit from the wisdom of predecessors; without firearms, how do they act as lone wolves in the wilderness?

Thus, cooperation and unity are humanity's true formidable strengths.

...

Under Phoenix Academy Maggie's direction, everyone had their duties, the wind from the Whirlwind Ring enveloping them, moving them.

Aozawa followed the wind.

Being of the melee type, not needing to join the first wave of attack.

Under Phoenix Academy Maggie's control, the wind clustered him, moving him leftward, altering his position to some extent.

Let him stand with those who engage in close-range attacks, like Sunaga Takashi and David.

Aozawa watched as Ayatsuki Ayaka threw out the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.

It was a magical treasure that could attack enemies from afar and automatically return.

Hojo Tetsuji was also in the formation for long-range attacks.

The Demon-Subduing Pestle thrust forward, stabbing suddenly, the wind and snow exploded, and the pestle pierced through hundreds of meters, attacking a white bear's head.

Bam!

The white bear raised its paw to block the Demon-Subduing Pestle, grinning with its sharp fangs reflecting the wind and snow.

Yan Chun Mei aimed the Yin Yang Mirror at it.

A dark light swirled on the mirror's surface, erupting like a pitch-black lightning bolt that struck the white bear's abdomen.

Its fur and body were directly corroded into pitch black, like ink poured into a bowl, quickly spreading all over.

"Ah!" The white bear wailed in pain, unable to stop Hojo Tetsuji's Demon-Subduing Pestle, and fell backwards.

With a thud, it fell onto the snowy ground, turning into a pool of ink.

A golden light orb shot up, splitting into one hundred and eight pieces, surging forward like a vast golden stream of light.

Under their concentrated firepower, the first wave of attacks wiped out sixty-three demons.

Each demon split into one hundred and eight light orbs; while individually insignificant, together they formed a formidable force.

Ayatsuki Ayaka felt warmth all over her body.

"Haha!"

She let out a hearty laugh.

Fighting alongside everyone, bearing the mission to save the world, filled Ayatsuki Ayaka with excitement. She was partaking in a glorious battle worthy of being chronicled in history or even shown on screen.

The giant bear, seeing its kin meet a tragic end, erupted in fury, roaring thunderously, "Roar!"

The crystalline pillar on its shoulder suddenly gleamed blue and then burst outward.

A thousand blossoms bloom on a windy night in the east.

But this time, the east wind scattered not fireworks, but streaks of destructive lightning.

The wind and snow were severed by the lightning.

Phoenix Academy Maggie calmly commanded, "Those brushed by the wind, defend."

Among the one hundred and eight, forty-eight had long-range, large-scale attack methods.

Twenty-six were engaged in close combat.

Nineteen were defenders.

Fifteen possessed supportive means.

Phoenix Academy Maggie naturally couldn't send all the defenders forward but prioritized those with reusable defensive magical treasures for defense.

If that wasn't enough, then the ones with one-time defensive magical treasures would act.

A breeze brushed across Li Quangui's skin, and he immediately summoned his Twelfth Grade Blue Lotus.

The blue lotus glowed, with petals blooming in the void, wide enough to cover everyone present.

Lightning broke through the wind and snow, falling on the surface of the lotus.

The lotus trembled but collapsed in an instant.

Li Quangui paled in fear, about to cry out in alarm, when the ground suddenly surged, and another high earthen wall replaced the lotus, shielding against the lightning.

Simultaneously, Phoenix Academy Maggie, leveraging the Whirlwind Ring, increased the intensity of the wind, allowing them to easily cooperate with the wind direction and rapidly distance themselves, elongating the gap.

Thus creating the space for defenders to exert their means.

Under this layer-by-layer discharging force, the giant bear's electric attack was neutralized by everyone.

They distanced themselves from the air force base, maintaining a safe gap from the demons.

Li Quangui's pallor softened, his heart pounding fiercely.

Strength in numbers!

If an individual encountered such a scenario alone, they would've been eliminated long ago.

But then again, would one encounter such a scenario alone?

Such uncertainty briefly flitted through his mind, quickly discarded as he clutched the Twelfth Grade Blue Lotus, ready to summon it again when the breeze touched his face.

This operation gave him a sense of being on a production line, yet it wasn't tedious.

So, what he disliked wasn't the production line operation, but what the production line was used for.

Li Quangui mused inwardly.

"Long-range attackers, continue your assault, target the central area.

The signal to attack is when the wind circles your skin."

Having experienced the first wave, Phoenix Academy Maggie detailed the strategy for the next wave of long-range attacks, aiming to achieve maximum impact with minimal effort, avoiding wastage.

They were united here, not just to face the demons ahead, but to prepare for the battle against the Unicorn.

Preserving the number of one-time magical treasures was crucial for the upcoming victory.

After all, once one-time treasures were used, they were truly gone.

Her second wave attack naturally prioritized those using long-range reusable magical treasures.

If unsuccessful, then one-time magical treasures would stack.

Close-combat trial participants needed to be held in reserve, only to be deployed against giant demons.

This was her judgment based on the overall situation.

Ayatsuki Ayaka felt the wind circle her cheek and, without thinking, cast the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.
