Late at night, teacher's apartment.
“And so, the Demon King was defeated by the resolve of the heroes, and the evil magic receded, and the kingdom returned to its former prosperity.”
“But the Demon King doesn't seem to have given up completely. One day, the Demon King will make a comeback. Will the heroes still be able to resist the Great Demon King with their excellent performance?”
“The Fox Fox Great Demon King and the Sleeping Nightingale Princess, ends here!”
“Everyone, please look forward to the next performance~ Bye-bye~”
The video ended, and the bullet comments were dense and continuous.
The screen was filled with bullet comments like “Want to see the next episode,” which made Villain Fox Fox, who was intensely self-searching, very satisfied.
Good, this is exactly the effect Ben Hu wanted!
This play was something Ben Hu had her familiars rehearse in the Mind Image Space for an entire day to achieve this effect, and it also successfully helped Hua Ling awaken her Star Shadow.
It perfectly matched Ben Hu's expectations, absolutely perfect.
With this, the series of tasks Ben Hu had accumulated were almost completed.
Thinking of this, Su Tianqing turned off her phone screen, pulled out the secret codex, and checked the task page.
“Crisis Event: The Blooming of Iris, Completed”
“Mission: The Magic Girls' New Form, Completed”
“Rewards: Iris Trust +1000, Hidden Shop Page gains 1 refresh per cycle, secret codex Shop Page 5, secret codex Shop Selectable Item x1”
Adding to that the recent daily missions and the refreshed “Theater Performance” mission, it was a massive haul of luxurious rewards!
Besides the regular divine code stone, which once again reached five digits, the new currency, “Ancient divine code stone,” also reached 200 points.
This way, Ben Hu's operational space expanded even further, and Ben Hu would surely find more fun.
“First, let's take a quick look at what heaven-defying items have been refreshed in the shop. Hopefully, it can help me plan for future troublemaking,” Su Tianqing thought.
Anyway, it was still early to sleep, so Ben Hu might as well summarize her recent villain activities.
First, Ben Hu obtained an important piece of information:
Little Yu is Hellcat.
This perfectly resolved the emotional problem that had troubled Ben Hu for a long time, and Ben Hu could also gain more fun from Little Yu.
But since Little Yu was willing to be honest with Ben Hu, Ben Hu would also find an opportunity to be honest with her in the future. This is a healthy and friendly interaction, and it won't evolve into a pathological relationship.
Then there's Hua Ling.
Magical Girl Iris gained Star Shadow, and the righteous Magic Girls suddenly had two Star Shadows, bringing the strength between the righteous and villainous sides back to a relatively balanced level.
At least they wouldn't have to worry about the full-mana Cat and full-mana Rabbit anymore.
“And Ben Hu also gained full trust from Iris! Hehehe.”
Villain Fox Fox showed a cunning smile.
This way, the actions of the righteous Fox Fox would become more valuable in the future, and Ben Hu might even see some more interesting scenes.
“Anyway, let's check the new items first!”
secret codex Shop, Open!
“Hidden Shop Page, Remaining Refreshes: 1”
Oh? Is it this round's hidden page right away?
Su Tianqing felt that this page often brought out good items.
For example, the empty capsule last time allowed Ben Hu to successfully capture a wild Razor Freak to expand her Monster species reserves, but it also offered meaningless things like the guardian star wholesale package.
Ben Hu still felt that buying that guardian star wholesale package was a huge loss! secret codex, can you give me a refund?
“guardian star Super Pack, 4000 divine code stone, contains guardian star x1000”
“?”
Good heavens, the first one made Ben Hu lose her composure.
What would Ben Hu do with so many guardian stars? Hand one out as a souvenir when Ben Hu meets someone on the street? Or tell Observer Fox Fox to develop more righteous Magic Girls?
The Star Realm doesn't give performance bonuses! Ben Hu won't do it!
Next is the second item:
“Weather Controller, 500 divine code stone, once a day, can freely change the current weather”
What a mysterious item! This thing is too useless!
The only meaning of this item is probably to adjust the weather to a heavy downpour during a life-and-death crisis, so that the dangerous scene appears more atmospheric... or something?
In short, it's also a meaningless item!
As for the Monster capsule wholesale package later on, it was even more unnecessary. Su Tianqing felt that she currently didn't need a huge number of cannon fodder; what she needed were precisely customized powerful Monsters.
Without the slightest hesitation, Villain Fox Fox refreshed this round's shop.
An item with a rather eye-catching name color appeared in her sight.
“Potent Magic Sealing Device, 2000 divine code stone”
“Seals all magic within a two-hundred-meter radius, excluding the user”
What a powerful item!
Ben Hu had plenty of money now! It was just 2000 points, so Ben Hu bought it!
“secret codex Paid”
Looking at the small square box in her hand, which resembled a router, Su Tianqing played with it contentedly.
Its surface was smooth, made of metal, and adorned with a few indecipherable rune patterns that combined to look quite appealing.
Su Tianqing was very satisfied.
This item alone could create very interesting scenes, and combined with Ben Hu's Mindscape World, watching the Magic Girls navigate a maze would also be quite amusing.
As for the selectable item on the shop page...
Villain Fox Fox leisurely browsed the secret codex shop when the screen of her phone suddenly lit up, displaying a WeChat message.
“Friend sent a message: Hua Ling”
“Tianqing Jie, how is your body?”
Oh, how thoughtful of Hua Ling, to still be concerned about Ben Hu's physical condition so late at night.
But then again, Ben Hu had been putting on a strenuous performance in her righteous mode today, and her weak state was perfectly acted, even the rolling Fox performance was done personally, without any flaws!
But Ben Hu should still reply to Hua Ling properly.
“Good evening~ I'm fine now, but what about Mu Yao? Has she woken up? And what about Xiaofeng's condition?”
“She's awake, but...”
On the other end of the phone, Hua Ling was pinching her phone, intending to type, but the commotion around her made it impossible for her to calm down.
Nan Xiaofeng was lying on the nearby hospital bed, currently being held down by doctors and nurses for dressing changes and bandaging, crying and fussing from the pain.
“Behave! Don't move!”
“It hurts, it hurts, ahhh, it hurts so much, ahhh—!”
Nan Xiaofeng tried her best not to move, but she still couldn't help but scream.
Hua Ling sighed.
The reason she was so badly injured... was all because of herself...
That four-barreled magic cannon volley really hit Hyacinth hard. Fortunately, Hyacinth was tough and durable, so she was only knocked down by herself, not instantly vaporized by the magic cannon.
As for Nightingale...
Hua Ling turned her head to look at the hospital bed beside her.
Nightingale was still sleeping, as if immersed in that three-day dream and unwilling to wake up, drooling from the corner of her mouth, forcing Hua Ling to place a towel beside her face.
“Hehehe... slurp...”
She was even talking in her sleep.
...Anyway, let Tianqing Jie rest assured first.
“They're both doing well. Mu Yao has already rested, and the doctor is still changing Xiaofeng's dressing. It should be soon.”
“Is that so? Then Hua Ling Meimei should also rest early. You worked hard today~”
A Fox Fox waving emoji.
Hua Ling hesitated for a long time, staring at the emoji, not knowing how to reply, so she just repeated a Fox Fox wave.
The night was peaceful and quiet.
In the Hero Association affiliated hospital, only Nan Xiaofeng's wails could be heard.
