Superman Termination Manual

Before he could finish speaking, Magical Girl Ash had already lifted Cinderella, aiming at him and pulling the trigger.

A "bang" echoed as the mage bullet shot out from the gun barrel at the tip of the umbrella!

"How rude," he said.

With quick hands and eyes, Wang Minghai unfolded a scroll, and immediately a torrent of water surged forward, buffering the impact of the mage bullet, allowing him to twist his head and dodge.

Magical Girl Ash injected magic power into Cinderella, her body rising into the air. She then pointed the gun barrel of Cinderella behind her, releasing a burst of air.

Whoosh!

Propelled by the recoil, she executed a lunge in midair, drawing her tachi close to Wang Minghai in an instant, twisting her waist to gain leverage, the blade dancing elegantly downward in an arc.

In that moment, Wang Minghai put on a pair of silver-white knuckledusters, and punched towards Ash's tachi. Your next read is at empire

Their fists and sword met, momentarily matched in force, but Ash, with the advantage of higher ground, turned retreat into advance, her right leg infused with magic power stomping forward, kicking hard towards Wang Minghai's chest.

The knuckleduster and tachi "clang" apart, sparks flying in midair.

Wang Minghai was kicked back a full two meters by Ash's kick, and Magical Girl Ash used this momentum to retreat backward in midair, that instant, not forgetting to point the Cinderella she was holding in her right hand straight ahead.

She continued to pull the trigger.

The lead-gray mage bullets arrived in an instant, almost forming a straight line. Wang Minghai, while retreating, swung his fists forward, his punches creating strong gusts.

Clang clang clang!

Soon, the sturdy metal knuckledusters, under the relentless assault of the mage bullets, starting from the piece over his middle finger, spread thousands of cracks and then shattered.

Wang Minghai touched his torn right hand, a fierce glint crossed his eyes, and he curled his lips into a smile.

"Interesting," he said.

Seizing the moment Ash was forced to retreat backward due to the recoil, he unfolded another scroll, and immediately a giant birdcage made of demon bodies descended from the sky, enveloping Ash's body.

Leaving no time to react.

Looking at this birdcage, one would feel its exterior resembled nearly dozens of ghostly spirits holding hands, a sight that could inspire terror and discomfort with a mere glance.

Meanwhile, Wang Minghai unfolded yet another scroll, and a giant python formed of flames emerged, slithering towards Ash with violent momentum.

Magical Girl Ash, still trapped within the demon cage, slashed at its barriers with her long sword, but couldn't make even a single crack.

As the fire snake drew nearer, her figure remained ethereal and proud, her face lifted slightly, and her right hand calmly raised Cinderella, the gun barrel aimed straight ahead.

The next instant, a magnificent beam of light burst forth from the tip of the umbrella, like thousands of gray roses blooming together.

In the thunderous roar, light and shadow trembled, and the world at that moment seemed to turn black and white.

The faces of the onlookers, Wang Minghai's expression, the silhouette of Magical Girl Ash.

Throughout the mall, countless advertising signs and tubes lost power at this moment, dimming down. It was as if a vast cloud of darkness had descended over the world, stripping it of its remaining color.

Under the devastating mage light beam, the demon cage shattered in an instant, and then the fire snake got swallowed up in it. Finally, even the figure of Wang Minghai was inevitably engulfed.

A moment later, the Magical Umbrella Cinderella trembled faintly, white smoke rising from the still-hot barrel.

Ash lowered the tip of the umbrella, catching her breath while lifting the tachi, moving forward through the smoke that now enveloped the entire mall.

In the time following the release of the mage light beam, her inner magic power was at its weakest, so she had to stay three hundred percent alert.

In that instant, a dangerous presence suddenly emanated from behind her.

```

Her eyes slightly narrowed, she opened the Cinderella umbrella wide, shielding the area behind her.

The next moment, a wild dragon made of stone collided with her umbrella, sending her flying backward for more than ten meters, crashing into the wall.

As the pervasive smoke dispersed, the bloodied Wang Minghai emerged, his left side of the face intact, while the right was reduced to bone and flesh, half of his body charred to a crisp.

"Didn't expect you to have such a skill..." Wang Minghai croaked, "I truly underestimated you." After saying that, he slowly unfurled the last scroll.

He's still not dead? This guy's really tough...

Magical Girl Ash frowned, thinking this while she raised her right arm, which was lodged in a dent, slowly extricating herself from the wall's broken cavity to pick up the tachi from the ground.

However, at that very moment, a cyan-black ghostly hand appeared out of nowhere, suddenly gripping her throat tightly.

"I did want to enjoy this game a bit more with our cute Magic Girl Miss, but it seems if we keep playing, I'll be the one in danger of losing my life."

Wang Minghai mockingly spoke as he raised his still-intact left arm in the void, his left hand mirroring the gesture of the ghost hand.

Magical Girl Ash was suspended in mid-air by the ghost hand, nearly unable to breathe. She scrunched her nose and attempted with all her might to lift Cinderella, aiming the tip of the umbrella at Wang Minghai.

She swiftly pulled the trigger!

With a bang of gunfire, Wang Minghai merely twisted his neck, dodging the magic-guided bullet.

But as he was momentarily distracted, Ash broke free from the ghost hand's grip, falling to the ground while clutching her neck.

She breathed heavily, slowly turning her head to survey her surroundings.

The ten ninjas she had previously let go were now charging out from behind nearby billboards, rushing toward her with long swords and daggers drawn.

Magical Girl Ash painfully reached out her right hand, gripping the handle of the Cinderella umbrella tightly.

Her vision was extremely blurred. The ninjas' speed could not be considered fast after sustaining injuries, but to her, their forms were shadowy and indistinct, occasionally splitting apart.

"Do you know? Since you came with the intention of killing me, I have no reason to let you go."

As he spoke, Wang Minghai held the scroll in his right hand, his left hand raised slightly.

He was about to unleash the ghost hand on Ash again, but at that very moment, he suddenly discovered his left hand somehow immobilized by a thread of spider silk.

Then, a humanoid figure bathed in a gray halo fell from the ceiling, appearing before Wang Minghai and Magical Girl Ash.

Magical Girl Ash paused a moment, lifting her eyes to stare at the gray figure, uttering its name with a weak voice.

"...Strange thing?"

"I told you, you would need me, Miss Ash," the strange thing said teasingly.

In that second, the ten ninjas had already drawn their concealed weapons and charged at Magical Girl Ash.

But as they closed in, they were suddenly unable to move their legs, looking down to find a layer of frost had formed around their feet.

At the same time, a girl dressed in a Christmas costume, complete with a tall Santa hat, plunged from a distance to land in front of Magical Girl Ash, protecting her.

Raising the Magic Wand to the ten ninjas, she asked in an unhurried tone.

"Senior, are you alright?"

Magical Girl Ash lifted her eyes, the blurry silhouette of the girl reflected in her vision, her whole person stunned for a few seconds.

"Xiaohongmao?" she said dazedly.
