Magical girls also have intensity anxiety

There are generally two reasons why a mark might break: either something happened to the mark's owner, or it was subjected to strong interference, such as... being too far away.

He quickly sent Li Huanhuan a message:

Are you alright?

【You've only been gone a short while, and you already miss me?】

There's no problem with Li Huanhuan's side; the only reason the mark broke could be due to strong interference.

But Mu Ming did not notice the magical interference.

So... it can only be that the distance is too far?

That's impossible. She and Li Huanhuan had confirmed that with her current level of magical power, as long as she set the coordinates and consumed enough magical power, Li Huanhuan's abilities could definitely reach Qishan City.

Which way is this train heading?

Mu Ming looked at the electronic screen on the door sill of the carriage.

[Heading to Qishan City]

The orientation is correct, and there are no stops in between.

So where did the problem lie? Was I dreaming?

Mu Ming pinched his cheek; it hurt.

He looked around blankly, but nothing seemed amiss.

Then I looked out the window again, and there were still barren mountains and wilderness, and a dark, earthy sky filled with black mist.

"Well..."

"?"

Sky?

Mu Ming rubbed his eyes and pressed his face against the window to look out.

It was neither the previous azure blue nor the gloomy look of being shrouded in dark clouds; it was more like the earthy color before an impending sandstorm.

The purplish-black smoke, symbolizing the calamity beast, was faintly visible in the atmosphere—this was already a big problem, as Mu Ming had not yet activated his vision of the corrupted magic.

He stared at the sky, which was clearly separated from the desolate mountains and wilderness below, and looked around strangely, but no one paid any attention.

Mu Ming picked up his phone, wanting to take a picture of the view outside the window, but the sky shown on the phone was as clear and bright as ever.

The longer Mu Ming stared, the more the alien sky eroded the scenery below. Soon, the mountains disappeared, leaving only desolation and emptiness.

Everything seemed smaller... The mountains stretched across the land like mounds of earth, while the withered trees were firmly connected, stretching endlessly.

It's not just that it's gotten smaller, it's also a matter of angle.

It's like... sitting on an airplane, looking down from a very high place.

Mu Ming pressed himself against the glass, trying hard to look back, but he couldn't see the train's tail at all. It was as if they were traveling in a straight line, rather than on a predetermined track.

A wisp of mist drifted past my eyes, and raindrops covered the car window, only to be quickly washed away.

cloud.

云！

The train is really flying!

"absurd..."

Mu Ming murmured to himself, but easily accepted the truth.

Below, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains, hundreds of millions of trees, rivers as wide as the sea, and occasionally black whales swim by in the clouds, their cries causing the air to tremble and churn.

That was a calamity beast, but such a large calamity beast, almost requiring a city to contain its body, only occupied a small part of the area below.

The vastness of heaven and earth was revealed to Muming for the first time.

He understood why the mark had broken; it was indeed because the distance had exceeded the limit.

Qishan City is much more than a hundred kilometers away from Changming City.

The idea that there is a "distance" outside of cities is a lie.

No wonder the tickets are so expensive, no wonder there's inspection when leaving the city...

Everything started to make sense.

Fear, excitement, ecstasy... all sorts of emotions welled up in Mu Ming's heart, and even he couldn't help but want to confide his feelings to someone.

He stared intently at the scene, and a glimpse of silvery white caught his gaze.

That was a person.

Mu Ming was stunned.

Is a person... a person?

People outside?

No... no, compared to heaven and earth, humans are so insignificant. Why is the person standing at the edge of the earth so clear, with such a strong presence, as if even nature is prostrating itself at the other's feet?

Her silver hair cascaded down to her waist, her beautiful back view was pure and alluring, and her clean arms waved gracefully.

A black line appeared in the sky as her finger traced it, and then... tore apart.

A purplish-black liquid gushed forth like a tidal wave, from which various calamity beasts poured forth, including A-rank and D-rank beasts...

Without exception, they all crashed to the ground from a height of 10,000 meters. Some of them turned into mush upon landing, not even due to the impact, but because of the weight of the bodies of the same kind above them.

The monstrous beasts, enough to cover the entire mountainside, were piled up at the woman's feet.

Then, she paused her raised arm, and then turned her head away.

Beautiful, the most beautiful I've ever seen in my life.

On her fairy-like, flawless face, her clear blue eyes revealed a girl's liveliness, yet the corners of her eyes held a charm that even mature women couldn't match. She turned her gaze and met his.

Mu Ming's heart stopped beating.

"Probably not..."

The distance between them is more than a thousand miles; it's impossible for them to see each other from that far away...

Mu Ming still held onto a sliver of hope, but the next second, a crack appeared outside the car window, and a silver-white woman leaned out from the crack, her hands resting on the edge of the crack as if it were just ordinary support.

The girl looked to be in her late teens, the prime of her youth. She wore only a loose white dress, revealing her collarbones and shoulder blades clearly. In fact, because she was leaning over, her fair neck even showed a hint of spring.

A mixture of likability and apprehension clashed within me.

Mu Ming unconsciously swallowed, stiffly turned his head away, and dared not look into the eyes of the fairy-like beautiful girl, for fear that something terrible might happen.

Are you looking at me?

The girl's lips parted slightly, and although no sound came out, Mu Ming understood what she meant without even looking at her lips.

【Occasionally, there are lucky people like you who get to see the view outside, hehe~】

The girl chuckled cheerfully.

But only you can see me, and I can't see you. That's so unfair.

She paused, her eyes blazing with passion:

Let me come see you.

The next instant, an absolute silver sea pierced the seed of the heart.

[Mental attack detected; mental energy countermeasure initiated]

The system pop-ups exploded like thunder. Mu Ming couldn't even imagine what an ordinary person would do if they saw the woman in front of them... What if the fight failed? Would she get into the carriage? Or would she be blocked by the full force of the explosion?

Mu Ming did not deflect the attack, but merely neutralized it. He also did not know how to deal with the woman in front of him.

Even though the train was traveling at an unimaginable speed, she seemed to be hanging outside the train, not even her hair was moving.

Why did you refuse? You're being mean.

The girl pouted, but quickly a cruel smile crept onto her face.

A silvery sheen appeared in her hand, eventually taking the form of paper.

Mu Ming didn't understand what she was going to do, but he saw the woman outside the window suddenly light up, and a blush of a young girl in love appeared on her face.

He even held that silver foil and gave it a light, fleeting kiss.

The next moment, as she flipped the foil over and faced the car window:

"Clang clang~"

Mu Ming felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

On it, Wu An's face appeared, with a faint red lip print on his cheek.

This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful child like you.

[And it's my favorite color, black.]

【This is so good, so good, so good!——】

Why did you refuse just now?

Mu Ming dared not move, his jaw clenched, his fingers gripping his thighs tightly, and sweat pouring from his forehead and neck.

My name is Bai Leqi. May I ask your name?

The girl who called herself Bai Leqi asked earnestly.

No answer...

A hint of disappointment appeared on her face, as if her sincerity had been betrayed, which made people feel heartbroken.

It's okay, I'll remember you, and please remember my name too.

I can hear you as long as you call my name outside the city.

If you encounter anything that scares you, don't forget to call me!

After speaking, Bai Leqi put two fingers to her lips and blew a seductive kiss to Mu Ming through the glass.

She withdrew from the crack, and the crack closed without leaving a trace.

For a long time, Mu Ming's body remained stiff, and his fingers were still trembling when the flight attendant brought him lunch.
