Later, somewhere in the southern part of Rong City.
“Bang! Boom!!!”
“Crack!”
Magic cannons roared, and magic shields shattered and dispersed, but the huge booming sound did not disturb the surrounding residents, being blocked by a soundproofing spell.
The White Sable Spirit floated in the air, glanced at the undamaged wooden dummy in the distance, and nodded appreciatively.
“Hmm, very good! Nightingale’s magic reaction speed is quite excellent now; many senior Magic Girls don’t have such outstanding casting skills as you.”
“Is that so? Eh heh.”
The yellow-clad Magic Girl was a bit shy, scratching the back of her head, her cheeks flushed.
Bai Ling then looked at Iris, who was reloading her magic cannon, and said to her:
“Iris is also very good; her casting speed is incredibly fast, and she can even cast both a magic cannon and a magic shield simultaneously. Did you learn this trick from a video?”
“I learned it from Mai Sui,” Iris admitted honestly.
She had taken advantage of having no classes this afternoon to cram training videos at home, learning many techniques.
These included, but were not limited to, casting multiple magic cannons, interspersing magic missiles between cannon shots, and casting a magic shield on herself while firing a magic cannon.
This series of casting techniques was quite numerous, some even very complex. She planned to practice the latter two tonight and save the first one for next time.
After waiting for Nightingale to re-apply a magic shield to the wooden dummy, Iris didn’t even aim; she just fired a casual shot, and the magic cannon beam steadily hit its target.
“Let’s take a short break!”
Seeing that their practice was gradually getting the hang of it, Bai Ling checked the time and called for the three of them to rest for a while.
Nightingale plopped down on the edge of the rooftop, turning her head to look at Hyacinth, who was wielding a sword and slashing at the wooden dummy not far away.
She wielded a greatsword, creating a blur of sword light and shadows. The dummy, which had a magic shield applied, also had a cat face drawn on its head, even meticulously adding cat ears.
“Hyacinth—come over and drink some water, take a break—”
There was no answer; Hyacinth was completely immersed in her sword dance.
“Let her practice on her own. Hyacinth has been under a lot of pressure recently, so she’s probably using it as an outlet,” Iris said with a wry smile.
As Nan Xiaofeng’s deskmate, she was the one who understood her current situation best.
Even though Nan Xiaofeng told her to rest well, it was Nan Xiaofeng herself who practiced the most diligently…
However, this contradictory behavior was also part of her personality, and Iris didn’t pay too much attention to it.
Instead, it was herself…
Thinking of this, Hua Ling couldn’t help but recall what happened last night.
Her cheeks flushed slightly.
That gardenia scent… it was truly unforgettable.
.
The Magic Girls were diligently practicing.
In the shadows not far away, a pink Rabbit ear quietly poked out.
The Magic Girl in a pink bunny suit emerged from the darkness, her crimson eyes fixed on the three who had resumed their artillery and close-combat training.
“Gulp…”
The socially anxious Rabbit swallowed.
The Magic Girls she admired were displaying their youthful vigor not far away, yet she didn’t have the slightest courage to go up and say hello.
In fact, it was impossible for her to approach them now—as a villainous Magic Girl, she could absolutely not interact with them normally after transforming into Cheshire Rabbit.
But why could Xin Yuehu play with them?
She even sent videos of them chatting and drinking tea by the lake.
How envious, Xia Taotao thought.
But it didn’t matter now; she had already become partners with Xin Yuehu and Hellcat. She was a Rabbit with friends too!
A pleasant feeling of happiness welled up in her heart, and the petite bunny girl pulled out a notebook from her waist, writing a few lines of small text.
“Magic Girl Special Training Plan Record…”
“Nightingale and Iris are doing firepower practice, and Hyacinth is practicing close-combat moves on the wooden dummy…”
“They are expected to train from eight to ten o’clock. The current recorded time is nine-thirty…”
“The specific training method is… Ah, I’ll go take another look—”
Before she finished her thought, the Rabbit Girl was about to lean her head to look over when she was suddenly stunned by a sky-blue figure in front of her.
“!!!???!!!?!!!?”
The Rabbit Girl trembled all over in fright, cold sweat covering her back.
It was none other than Hyacinth, looking confusedly at her dark corner!
Calm down! Xia Taotao! Calm down!
She was currently in an invisible state; as long as she didn’t move, Hyacinth would absolutely not see her!
Sure enough, Hyacinth did not discover the invisible Rabbit in the shadows, scratching the back of her head in confusion.
“Strange… I clearly felt a magical fluctuation here just now, why did it suddenly disappear…?”
“Hyacinth—what are you doing over there?”
“Nothing, I just felt like there was something here, maybe I’m just too tense.”
Hyacinth turned to her companions and said, glancing again at the empty, dark corner in front of her, tilting her head. She didn’t pay much attention and turned to leave.
Xia Taotao breathed a sigh of relief.
Her heart had almost jumped into her throat just now.
Hyacinth had never quite fit the definition of a cute and docile Magic Girl; instead, she was more like a knight, and her purely close-combat fighting style was very different from ordinary Magic Girls.
This unique persona had gained her a large following, and Xia Taotao herself was very interested in this unconventional Magic Girl.
“But I didn’t expect her perception to be so keen…” Xia Taotao muttered to herself.
She had only peeked out slightly, and she was already detected by Hyacinth, who realized she was observing nearby. This meant she was completely stuck in this corner!
However, Fox Fox said she would help her lure away the Magic Girls, so in that case…
“Oh no! Hyacinth, Iris, and Nightingale! Come over here quickly!”
Suddenly, a commotion not far away attracted everyone’s attention.
The Magic Girls immediately gathered around the Observer, all looking at Nan Xiaofeng’s phone screen in her hand.
“Xin Yuehu has appeared at the highway interchange! And she’s summoned a powerful Monster!”
“That stinky Fox Fox… Let’s go quickly; we must teach her a good lesson today!”
The Magic Girls immediately sped away, leaving three trails in the air.
Watching them leave, Xia Taotao was stunned for a long time.
Her heart felt empty, yet there was also a sense of relief that the mission was accomplished. Two contradictory feelings existed simultaneously, causing a slight disarray.
Since Fox Fox summoned a Monster to lure away the Magic Girls, was her mission accomplished?
The socially anxious Rabbit remained dazed in the shadows for a long time, finally getting up blankly and slowly flying towards the rooftop where Xin Yuehu usually livestreamed.
.
At the same time, in northern Rong City.
Su Tianqing sat at the entrance of the highway toll station, with a shopping cart beside her piled high with snacks and potato chips.
The snacks were gifts from fans.
As soon as she arrived and shouted for everyone to leave, preparing to summon a Monster, staff from a nearby supermarket pushed this cart of snacks over to her.
“Fox Fox, I’m your Fox fan, I love you so much, can I have an autograph?”
The fan girl said excitedly, then received an autograph from her and excitedly took a photo together.
“Is Ben Hu’s popularity this high?”
While eating the potato chips in her hand, Su Tianqing fell into thought.
It wasn’t until three familiar magical trails appeared in the sky and three Magic Girls appeared before her that the Golden Fox’s face once again showed a mischievous smile.
They finally came.
Next, let the Monster play with the three of them; Ben Hu needs to meet up with Rabbit!
“Xin Yuehu! You—”
Before she finished speaking, Hyacinth only saw the little Fox Fox flick her tail, and the teleportation magic activated, causing her and the snacks beside her to vanish instantly.
Only the giant Crab Monster remained in the middle of the road, looking up at her.
Hyacinth drew her sword, looking around in confusion, as if the Golden Fox’s voice still lingered in the air:
“You three have finally arrived!”
“Let this Crab play with you ~ Fox Fox is leaving now ~”
