“Good morning, Rong City!”
“Yesterday’s Fox Fox livestream giveaway resulted in a full thirty viewers winning prizes!”
“Thanks to the Autumn Osmanthus Squad’s performance, the CD105 anime convention was a huge success! But in Fox Fox’s opinion, the audience probably wasn’t entertained enough, because Fox Fox wasn’t invited to CD105 yesterday!”
Nan Xiaofeng silently watched the video playing on her phone screen, only seeing Golden Fox dressed as a radio host, reciting strange lines.
“Also, Ms. Mai Sui from Sui City recently officially announced her arrival in Rong City to assist the Hyacinth Squad. Do they think Ms. Hyacinth and her team can’t handle Fox Fox?”
“Fox Fox is very—interested in Ms. Mai Sui~ If Ms. Mai Sui could play with Fox Fox for a few days, would Fox Fox give up bothering Ms. Hyacinth and her team?”
“So, Sunday night at eight, Longgu Mountain Scenic Area in the eastern suburbs of Rong City, we’ll see you there~”
The video ended.
Nan Xiaofeng looked up at Hua Ling beside her, who had also finished watching the video. The two exchanged glances, blinking.
“Xin Yuehu is at it again.”
“Yes, but why does it feel quite normal?” Hua Ling replied.
The two had gradually accepted the fact that Xin Yuehu would bother them every day.
Actually, when Xin Yuehu caused trouble, she wasn’t that annoying, Nan Xiaofeng thought.
Although some pranks were excessive, like when she controlled herself and then brutally beat Dandelion last time, or when she caused Hua Ling to have a mental breakdown at one point,
But looking back now, she really hadn’t done anything truly heinous. It was hard to say she was genuinely a big villain.
And… her tail was indeed very alluring…
Nan Xiaofeng quickly shook off the inexplicable thoughts in her head.
How could she think of that fluffy tail at a time like this! What a sin!
“Anyway, let’s tell Mu Yao and Senior Mai Sui about this first. We must stop her today.” Nan Xiaofeng made her decision, showing a leader’s demeanor.
But before the two could even pull out their phones, a magical fluctuation from a divine code stone communication suddenly entered their perception.
Hua Ling pulled out an enchanted divine code stone from the magical space in her pocket and curiously projected it onto her phone screen.
Communicator: 【Mai Sui】
“Good morning, Senior Mai Sui.” Hua Ling connected the magic communication and said to the other side.
“Good morning, Iris, did you rest well yesterday?”
“Yes, I slept soundly.”
A set of pleasantries, which left Nan Xiaofeng somewhat bewildered.
As a new generation Magic Girl in Rong City, Nan Xiaofeng herself had naturally heard of Mai Sui and knew she came from a wealthy family, but she never expected such a senior to come to Rong City.
“Ms. Hyacinth is with you too, right? Hello, Ms. Hyacinth.”
“Eh? Ah, ah, good, good morning.” Nan Xiaofeng quickly responded to Mai Sui’s magic communication in her mind.
“…Judging by your expressions, are you still not used to using divine code stone for magic communication?”
Mai Sui immediately asked curiously.
The two looked at each other, speechless, a little embarrassed to say that they usually communicated with each other using their phones.
“I just received intelligence that Xin Yuehu is going to attack the… what’s that scenic area called in the eastern suburbs tonight?”
“Longgu Mountain Scenic Area. We’ve also received the message.”
“Ah… I see.”
Mai Sui’s voice seemed a little disappointed, which Nan Xiaofeng thought was probably her own illusion.
“Let’s meet at the nearby Hero Association command center. We’ll contact Dandelion later, and then go together to stop Xin Yuehu.”
“Meet up?… Is that your usual combat method? It’s a bit too cautious.”
Mai Sui chuckled softly, her voice becoming much more flippant,
“You have two Star Shadows. Why do you need to contact Dandelion again? Just go and beat her away.”
“This… the situation is actually more complicated than you think, Senior. Xin Yuehu has two helpers with her. If we act rashly, we could easily be…”
“Oh, why worry so much? Just go ahead boldly. As your senior, I will definitely support you in time. There’s no need to contact Dandelion again.”
The communication was cut off.
Nan Xiaofeng and Hua Ling looked at each other again, thinking for a long time about what to say, but ultimately remained silent.
…
“As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated. We must be serious later and not be as playful as before.”
At 7:30 PM, on top of Longgu Mountain in Rong City, Golden Fox sat on the empty observation deck, handing a large serving of fries and ketchup to the Cat Girl and Rabbit Girl beside her.
Hellcat reached out and took them, throwing two into her mouth and chewing slowly.
“Hyacinth and her team already have two Star Shadows, and a highly experienced Mai Sui has joined them. We must proceed cautiously.”
“I agree.” The Cat Girl swallowed the fries in her mouth and said.
“Mai Sui is from the same period as Bai Lili. Although she doesn’t have a Star Shadow like Bai Lili, her strength should definitely not be underestimated.”
“So that means… we’re facing two Star Shadows and an experienced senior today, right…?” The Pink-haired Rabbit Girl asked timidly.
A brief silence.
Even Su Tianqing felt uncertain about this potential battle today.
To be honest, she had always relied on the Hyacinth trio’s lack of experience to tease them, but if Mai Sui, with her veteran experience, joined in…
Golden Fox secretly opened her magic space and glanced at the Monsters she had prepared.
Cancer Witch, Ursa Major Witch, and Hercules Witch; these three were just created today, each equipped with at least 20 levels of enhancement and dual physical and magical resistance.
Three Witches, even Iris, who had just unlocked her new form and was still in an invincible state, should be able to suppress them.
Then, let Catcat Rabbitrabbit, who had just replenished her magic, suppress Hyacinth, and then use her ultimate trump card to deal with Mai Sui and Nightingale…
Moreover, Nan Xiaofeng and her team hadn’t contacted her, so she had good reason to let them go.
“I specifically studied Mai Sui’s combat habits today. How should I put it…” Hellcat had just finished half of her fries and interjected.
“—Unskilled firepower saturation.” Cheshire Rabbit nibbled on a fry, answering softly.
The villain trio exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously.
Not only the two beside her, but Su Tianqing herself had also asked the righteous Fox Fox to retrieve Mai Sui’s relevant information from the Hero Association’s archives today, and the conclusion was exactly the same as Catcat Rabbitrabbit’s.
“The Mai Sui Squad are all firepower types, similar to Iris. Their four-person firepower is even denser than Iris’s normal state, and they tend to rely on pure firepower suppression to deal with Monster attacks.”
Su Tianqing said,
“But I really don’t like that fighting style. It’s no fun at all.”
“It’s so nice to have abundant magic…”
The Rabbit Girl nibbled on her fries, as if she were gnawing on a radish.
Nan Jiayu couldn’t refute her companion’s statement, after all, she also relied on Fox Fox’s magic supply and couldn’t achieve firepower saturation like Mai Sui.
“Anyway, we’ll just focus fire on Mai Sui later, right?”
The Cat Girl decided to stop thinking and leave the tactical decisions to the Golden Fox beside her.
Xin Yuehu revealed her familiar cunning smile.
“Exactly.”
“Draw fire, suppress individually, but our goal today is only one.”
“—Mai Sui.”
