Chapter 848
"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 .
