“Friend, have you heard of Magic Girls?”
“In the Magic Girl world, there’s a new legend.”
“On a certain video website, there’s a new Magic Girl who’s exploded in popularity. She’s only been active for a few months but has already amassed a huge following, and her live streams are packed every day.”
“She calls herself a villain, but she works to secure holidays and daily entertainment for her fans, bringing them endless joy and rare holiday time off.”
“And you only need to give her a tiny, insignificant tip in her live stream, send her an SC, and she might just see your request and descend like an angel upon your company…”
“Long hours of overtime.”
“Looks familiar? This is happening all over the universe! You might be next!”
“Unless you can make the most important choice of your life…”
“Join us, become a viewer of Xin Yuehu, become a Fox Fan!”
Bai Lili was idly scrolling through a video of a rabid Fox Fan on her phone.
She didn't know why, but her video recommendations often showed such rabid Fox Fan videos, and the comment section would always be flooded with Fox Fox peeking emojis.
There would even be wild 【Magic Girl Fox Fox Official】 accounts appearing, and the reply section would immediately be flooded with a long string of “Fox Fox Captured.”
“Ouch… that hit really hard…”
“Is it serious to let Nightingale go hand-to-hand with Cheshire Rabbit? Ouch, ouch…”
Her companions sat not far from her, gazing towards Suicheng Tower, occasionally letting out exclamations or gasps.
Bai Lili couldn't help but look up as well.
Her magic-enhanced vision allowed her to clearly see the fierce battle in the direction of the distant Suicheng Tower—or rather than a fierce battle, it was more like a one-sided beating:
Hyacinth had unleashed Star Shadow, and Hellcat was also in Star Shadow state!
A massive amount of magic from the Star Realm filled Cat Girl’s black hole tiger fists, each punch sending Hyacinth flying far away. She couldn't keep up with Hellcat's speed and agility at all, being completely suppressed.
Cheshire Rabbit had even entangled Nightingale, who already had poor mobility. The tender yellow Magic Girl barely managed to put up a shield and struggled to hold on, but Iris and Mai Sui also couldn't spare a hand to support their companion, being completely overwhelmed by the two Magic Girls.
“They’re really getting beaten badly… tsk tsk…”
“Their performance is already excellent, you see how Lulv was taken down in an instant just now.”
Hearing her companion say that, Bai Lili's gaze turned to the three Magic Girls, Lulv, who were tied to the drop tower seats.
The original bungee jumping facility seemed to have been strengthened by Xin Yuehu's magic, and it was now shaking the three Magic Girls up and down like a chef tossing a pan. Their wails and cries could be heard from far away.
Bai Lili was only glad that she hadn't gone to fight Xin Yuehu and her group at first, but had stopped her companions the moment she saw Hellcat, not daring to rush forward.
Otherwise, there might have been four more people tied to that tossing machine.
“It's also thanks to you, Captain, for reacting quickly enough, otherwise we would be the ones getting beaten right now.” A companion tilted her head and said to Bai Lili, with a hint of lingering fear.
The girl pouted, her expression helpless.
Actually, her group had arrived even earlier than Lulv and her group.
After all, she was invited by the Suicheng Hero Association to perform, and since she had received benefits from others, she had to help solve the trouble.
And after hearing that Xin Yuehu had attacked Suicheng Tower, her companions almost immediately accepted the Hero Association's invitation. Only Bai Lili was a bit hesitant, which was why she didn't make her debut immediately.
That's how she managed to escape.
“But considering how many benefits the Suicheng Association gave us, let's still help them out a bit.”
Thinking of this, Bai Lili activated her flying magic and ascended into the sky, saying to her companions.
“Listen, after we get close, absolutely do not show hostility. If you can negotiate with Xin Yuehu, then do so. Try to rescue Lulv and the others first!”
““Received!””
…
The amusement ride, enhanced by magic, was shaking up and down.
The objects being shaken were three Magic Girls tied to chairs, who were now disoriented from the shaking, whimpering and crying in their chairs.
“Heh heh heh~ How do you feel, Miss Lulv? Is the amusement machine Fox Fox prepared for you fun?”
“Not fun! Not fun at all!”
Lulv said with a crying voice, struggling to escape, but the ropes formed by pure magic were not so easy to break free from, instead binding her even more tightly.
“Waaah waaah waaah you quickly let me go… I don't want to play anymore… waaah waaah waaah…”
The pure white Edelweiss was already crying with a tear-streaked face, her previous momentum completely gone, clearly a girl who had been wronged.
Hearing the cries from this side, the smile on Cheshire Rabbit's face became even more prominent, making Nightingale break out in a cold sweat, and she hurriedly added another layer to her magic shield.
“Heh heh… Miss Edelweiss's wails are truly melodious… Miss Nightingale, can you also make sounds like that?”
“I don't want to!” Lin Muyao gripped the magic staff in her hand and replied in a low voice.
Su Tianqing looked back at Mai Sui and Iris, who were still struggling under the Magic Girls' hands, then continued to focus on the three Magic Girls, Lulv, in front of her.
Golden Fox had her back to the light, her delicate little face, reflected in the three girls' tear-filled eyes, looked terrifying like a demon.
“So you do beg for mercy after all, Miss Edelweiss, but why are you only begging for mercy now? Weren't you very energetic just now?”
“Waaah waaah waaah waaah waaah… Bad person, scoundrel!… You will, you will eventually be eliminated by someone!”
Edelweiss cried and shouted, but the Sirius Magic Girl's claws suddenly pinched her chin, scaring her into immediate trembling all over.
“Even when tied up as a hostage, you're still so stubborn. It seems you haven't fully realized your own problems.”
The smile on Golden Fox's face had disappeared at some point, leaving only a cold gaze, like a Star Realm demon from the deep starry sky.
“According to the statistics of the Suicheng Hero Association, even excluding Miss Mai Sui, your destructiveness to the city surroundings when intercepting Monsters ranks first in the country.”
“Fox Fox is very dissatisfied, or rather, a little angry.”
“The duty of a Magic Girl is to defeat Monsters and protect the public, but you completely disregard the safety of the public, even using indiscriminate firepower… ”
“If Fox Fox hadn't chosen Suicheng Tower as the attack location today, I'm afraid you would have already covered it with firepower, right?”
Su Tianqing grinned and chuckled,
“So, since you've fallen into Fox Fox's hands, I'll fulfill a little bit of my villain's responsibility and try to make you understand what proper Magic Girls should do~”
“When we were in Rong City, Miss Mai Sui had already been disciplined by Fox Fox into a good girl, you three must also want to experience what your former teammate went through~?”
Golden Fox's tail extended forward, lifted Lulv's chin, and she smiled as she spoke to her.
“…!!”
The girls' faces turned pale, and they cried even louder.
Especially Edelweiss, she had obviously watched the entire live stream of Mai Sui being hung on the villain's rooftop, but no matter how much she struggled, it was useless. She even had a piece of gold-striped fabric stuffed into her mouth by a slime tentacle.
Hyacinth's treatment!
But just as Su Tianqing was about to take these three people back to the Mindscape World, a voice from behind made everyone stunned:
“Ahem… Xin Yuehu.”
A somewhat familiar voice.
Hellcat, who was violently beating Hyacinth, looked back and met the gaze of the pure white Magic Girl floating in the air, holding a long magic staff.
Her graceful figure, pure white dress, it was indeed her acquaintance—Magic Girl 【Bai Lili】.
“Oh my, isn't this Miss Bai Lili?”
Su Tianqing's eyes lowered slightly, but she still maintained her smile.
Not good. Golden Fox thought to herself.
Although the current battle situation favored her side, if another Bai Lili Squad were added, the situation would be completely different.
First of all, Bai Lili also had Star Shadow, although her strength didn't seem very reliable—she could fight an ordinary Cat Girl to a draw in Shanghai—but she was still a Star Shadow after all.
If you can't get an advantage, run fast!
“Heh heh heh, I didn't expect so many people to come today. It seems Fox Fox won't find much fun today.”
“Cat Cat, Rabbit, close up shop!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheshire Rabbit immediately disappeared into the shadows, leaving only her signature lingering smile in the air.
Hellcat also immediately abandoned her pursuit of Hyacinth, returned to Xin Yuehu's side, and remained within the range of the teleportation magic.
“Let's stop here for today.”
Golden Fox said with a smile,
“However, Fox Fox didn't have much fun today, so… ”
“Tomorrow afternoon, Suicheng Wild Animal Park, we'll see each other there~”
The teleportation magic activated, and the villain Magic Girls instantly disappeared.
Bai Lili held her magic staff blankly, floating in the air. She looked at the battered and disheveled Hyacinth Squad, then at the three Magic Girls, Lulv, crying and whimpering on the tossing machine.
…That little Golden Fox is really quite a troublemaker, Bai Lili thought.
