Gold, the synonym for precious metals.
It symbolizes wealth, it is the foundation of finance, and it is the synonym for the financial system.
Whoever possesses gold is synonymous with wealth; it has always been this way from ancient times to the present.
—However, Su Tianqing was not interested in gold.
But even without interest, it didn't prevent the Golden Fox from showing a joyful expression in her eyes when she saw the two thousand tons of gold piled up like a mountain before her.
“Thousands of gold bricks, piled up to form a wall, actually aren’t as much as I imagined.”
“What do you all think? All this gold was brought out by Fox Fox from the Gang City Central Bank’s vault.”
The live stream was flooded with bullet comments.
“I’ve never seen so much gold in my life,” “Fox Fox, Venmo me a piece,” “+1”
“Hmm? That won’t do! Fox Fox is only borrowing this batch of gold, so don’t get any crooked ideas.”
“Besides, if anyone wants to intercept this gold, they’d have to start by breaking through Fox Fox’s defenses, wouldn’t they?”
The Golden-haired Fox Girl adjusted the camera, turning it to the surroundings of the temporary villain’s rooftop.
The Zodiac Twelve Witches were arrayed around, and a thick barrier protected the rooftop layer by layer, making one not even want to try to force their way through.
“How does Fox Fox plan to deal with this gold?”
Seeing an SC (Super Chat) scroll by, the Golden-haired Fox Girl responded with a smile:
“Thanks to ‘Cute Fox Treasure, Let Mama Hug You’ for the SC~”
“Fox Fox won’t embezzle these assets; all the gold has been stored by Fox Fox, and I’m planning to find an opportunity to return it to Hyacinth.”
“It’s just that…”
The Fox Girl sat on a plastic chair from a street food stall, which she had gotten from who knows where.
“If Hyacinth wants it, she’ll have to come and get it herself. You know the rules!”
Bullet comments like “Powah Fox Fox”, which made no sense, began to flood the screen.
“So, Fox Fox has specially prepared a super fun event for Hyacinth~”
“Please look forward to the video Fox Fox will release after the live stream ends~”
“Now then, it’s time for the long-awaited SC Q&A session! Feel free to ask anything!”
…
Meanwhile, at Zixuan’s house.
The Red Fox Girl watched the Golden Fox interacting enthusiastically with the bullet comments on her phone screen, her eyes sparkling with interest.
“Oh, oh, oh… so this is called live streaming? How interesting!”
“Yes, Xin Yuehu has tons of fans; everyone loves watching her live streams.”
Zixuan explained with a smile, suddenly feeling like she had lost her yearning for foreign countries.
Her elder sister hadn’t even watched live streams abroad! She hadn’t even used a smartphone! Was life abroad a bit too difficult?
Moreover… her elder sister hadn’t changed at all compared to ten years ago, neither in height nor in temperament; she was exactly the same as the elder sister in her memories…
After much thought, Zixuan ultimately didn’t delve deeper into the question, holding her elder sister, who was now a little Fox Girl, in her arms and showing a satisfied smile.
“So, Fox Fox plans to start a brand new show in Hong Kong City, which will surely bring a considerable surprise to Hyacinth and the others~”
“‘What kind of show does Fox Fox plan to use to return the gold to Hyacinth?’ Oh dear, are you all that eager to know?”
“Then I’ll reveal a little bit of the content—”
A line of text formed by magic appeared on the screen, and the precise control made Chihou hesitate slightly.
But thinking that the other party was Xin Yuehu, she didn’t think much more of it.
However, when she softly read that line of text, the Red Fox’s face immediately showed several question marks.
…
…
“To ensure safety, the gold has been stored by Fox Fox in the Mindscape World.”
“So, if Hyacinth wants to get the gold, she’ll have to come to Fox Fox’s Mindscape World herself and take it.”
“But since you’re already here… Fox Fox naturally wants to play an interesting game with Hyacinth~”
“And the name of this game is—”
“Magic Mice Adventure Season 2 ~ Escape from Foxkov ~”
Nan Xiaofeng expressionlessly watched the seemingly serious trailer on her phone screen.
Speaking of this bizarre adventure series, Nan Xiaofeng immediately recalled some very unpleasant memories.
Last time, she and her two companions, along with Mai Sui, broke into Xin Yuehu’s Mindscape World, and the four of them were turned into four Magic Mice, experiencing an exaggerated adventure.
It seemed Xin Yuehu got addicted to it, and she’s actually making a second season??
And it’s a rather unpleasant theme!
“So that means…”
“Xin Yuehu invited us to meet tonight, but the exact time hasn’t been set yet.” Lin Muyao said, sipping her crispy bubble milk tea, continuing Nan Xiaofeng’s sentence.
“We should find more helpers; that way, it’ll be safer.” Hua Ling offered her idea.
But who should they find to help?
First, naturally, was the Hailanshi Team, with Inari’s powerful return; all five members had excellent combat power and were trustworthy teammates.
Next were the Bai Lili Squad and the Maisui Squad, who had not yet left; the former had a Star Shadow, and the latter had ample firepower, also making them reliable support teams.
“Then I’ll try to contact them, and also ask the Hero Association for help; this time, we must snatch that gold back from Xin Yuehu!”
With Nan Xiaofeng’s request, plus the Hero Association also valuing this batch of gold highly, the Magic Girls quickly gathered at the designated location.
…
Night, Hong Kong City Central Plaza.
The central plaza, after rapid repairs, had already regained its former appearance.
The Golden-haired Fox Girl sat alone on a sofa chair on the lawn, meticulously grooming her tail with a fur brush.
And in the sky not far in front of her, four Magic Girl squads were all present, forming a scene that was quite imposing to ordinary people.
“Xin Yuehu!”
Hyacinth stepped forward first, revealing the greatsword in her hand.
“Hand over all that gold!”
“Heh heh heh, good evening, Hyacinth, you’re still as interesting as ever.”
The Golden-haired Fox Girl said with a smile.
“Hyacinth, did you carefully read the rules explanation Fox Fox sent you? All that gold has been put into the Mindscape World by Fox Fox.”
“If you want it, why don’t you go inside and see for yourself~”
“Who would go into your Mindscape World! That’s no different from walking into a trap!” Hyacinth immediately shouted.
No one behind her spoke, not even Inari, who was a bit unaccustomed to participating in group activities for the first time.
Inari had thoroughly researched the Mindscape World.
And her final conclusion was—this was a great magic that required extremely vast magical power and super precise control to achieve.
Inari, without the Star Shadow, could never achieve it, but she could still recognize the most fundamental barrier principles of the Mindscape World.
…But at least without the aid of special magic, it was absolutely impossible to invade the Mindscape World from the outside.
“Hm hm hm, it’s fine if you don’t want to enter, Fox Fox has already prepared tickets for all of you~”
As soon as she finished speaking, the Red Fox Girl raised her eyebrows, silently adding a layer of Mindscape filtering barrier to herself.
And before the others even had time to react, a vast magical power descended from Xin Yuehu’s snap of her fingers!
“Mindscape World,” unfold!”
The scene before them suddenly changed, their bodies felt as if their souls had left them, falling into a darkness within this great Mindscape magic.
The next moment.
The Magic Girls stood on an empty city street.
Around them, besides their respective teammates, there was no one else; in front of them lay a workbench filled with various weapons, silently exuding a cold chill.
“Welcome everyone to Fox Fox’s Mindscape World!”
“Now, this time’s theme—‘Magic Mice Adventure: Escape from Foxkov’—officially begins!!”
