Chapter 848 Magpie Form

"I get to boom it, right? Right?" Peppers squinted when Mr Know-It-All literally gave the go-ahead that the Ministry of State Security would cover their tracks no matter what they did. His Dragon Wave Barrier had also eliminated the small fry (to the System's dismay) and provided Jin with some breathing space to prepare for his 'all-out attack'.

"Not yet. Just give me a minute" Jin told her as he held up a monster card with the picture of Que Er, the Magpie Queen and used the System Driver to activate it.

"Card Activated, Magpie Form."

His Rider Suit once again changed with a flash. After its transformation, it featured a magpie head as his mask, and there were some other obvious changes to his suit too. A pair of Raven Wings was growing from his back, metallic in form because of the living armour nano suit's ability.

And out of a portal, both of Odin's Ravens landed on his shoulders cawing at the current situation. "You got to excuse their… initiative to erm 'claim' your shoulders."

"Well, that just means they love you enough to not be separated from you." Jin teased Que Er who he had fused with. (Of course, the others could not hear their talks unless they were in the same System's channel.)

"Oh please, they keep complaining how Odin did not work them as hard as I do."

"And yet, they continue to work for you. Perhaps they preferred to be with a pretty queen than a grumpy old man?" Jin commented with a proverbial wink.

"Since when did you become such a smooth talker? Should I be worried that older women are your preference? Is that why you haven't been paying attention to your Sub System User?s I honestly don't mind if Master wants a piece of me." Que Er teased Jin back.

"Please. Imagine having thousands of crows and magpies and two talkative Ravens secretly peeking at us. You must be insane if you think I have such a voyeuristic nature."

"That is true. Especially those lecherous Ravens. I have a feeling they keep peeking into my attire when I am not looking. Perhaps why they love to stay on my shoulders. Not sure if they transmit anything to Odin though." Que Er agreed as she pinched both of the Ravens on their necks which made them caw even harder.

"We swear we would never do such a thing! Never!" Muninn screamed via the System channel.

"Your denial makes it even more suspicious!" Que Er said as she now grabbed the two by their necks. By now all the scouting magpies and crows were hovering above the group in circles.

From afar, the Border Guards and Royal Battalions might have mistaken it as a slow-moving hurricane given their numbers.

"Ah…I get it. Not a bad idea to be honest." Peppers who saw the circling birds chirping away now understood what Jin was aiming at. She took her staff and swung it a few times to show her finesse of using a staff and pointed it to the sky.

Subsequently, the magic within the staff was dispersed. All the magpies and crows absorbed it and started to glow with a bluish-black light. She did not forget to imbue her magic transfer with the Black Sludge Inscription Charm so that those birds would inadvertently attract the Bone Spirit Demons. (And ensuring those monsters ate the 'bombs' instead of evading it.)

"Man, I was expecting a more spectacular kaboom, but this is an interesting variant I've been wanting to try ever since their inception." Peppers shared in the System channel while she sent the remaining portion of the magic into the two Odin Ravens.

"Que Er, send half of them to Dongguan. Grandma Yuan might need all the help she can get before we settle this." Jin requested and Que We obliged.

"Sure thing! Muninn, Huginn lead the way. MAKE SURE these birds reach there safely." Que Er ordered as she squeezed the Ravens once more before sending them off.

A flock of them immediately left the area with the remaining half now spreading themselves out in the wild. Que Er took the opportunity to fly up and size her opponent up.

"Actually with Peppers magic now strengthening the explosive power of each of my children, I do not see a need to increase it any further. However, I figure that Loopa Ooofpa won't go down that easily. Who knows? Maybe he will eat the explosion." Que Er analysed.

"Quite an astute observation! Now if anyone at all is still interested, I would love to explain how the artificially created Loopa Ooofpa appeared in the Second World War." Kraft offered. While he would usually use Itori to fly around, this time he did not use any tricks or wings but to hover beside the System Rider Magpie. Apparently, all he needed was just chi which made Mr Know-It-All all the more curious about the cultivation grade of the newcomer.

"Not really the time for a history lesson. More importantly, does that thing have any weak points?" Que Er could literally feel Jin's anxiety in wanting to finish this monster quickly before it got any worse.

"If one explosion is not enough, make it two. I still have a whole bag of things I never got the chance to try out which might prove useful. Actually, Peppers made the right choice by breaking her magic into hundreds or thousands of them. That monster would have literally absorbed the first shot and used it as his own energy source. Basically like an enemy Derpy." Kraft stated as he checked his storage ring at the side.

"Well, duh. Why do you think I was so willing to forsake my chance of a grand explosion? Of course, I had read it up the moment you said that you knew about it. Though I have to admit, it's equally nice to be able to see a series of fireworks…"

"Ah, the System must have Grandma Yuan's entry of the Loopa Ooofpa she fought." Kraft deduced since there was no way the System had access to his database of naughty secrets.

"Eh really? I merely used the birds because they could be as highly deadly as a piece of missile." Jin said in the System Channel, attempting to bluff Kraft but to no avail.

"Don't white lie or play dumb with me, Boss. You are not of that level yet." With his head down, Kraft shook it slowly. He then unveiled the triple-barreled, triple-cylindered revolver ornamented with detailed golden fox designs and pointed at the messy blob of tentacles.

His all precious 'No Mercy'.

"But I shall play along with you just this one. We will divert its attention by allowing it to feed on one large enough explosion and you can attack him with the rest of your birds. At least, we got to show that we are so SO much stronger than those State Agents, right?" Kraft added as he already loaded a trio of steel bullets into No Mercy.

"I don't really understand your intentions, but let's do it." Jin allowed Que Er to take over the combat, and with a hand wave, the birds started to glow brightly as the magic churning inside them was dying to come out of them.

"Nice, Nice, Nice." Kraft grinned as he aimed his gun, all ready to press the trigger.
