Just a magical girl who picks up trash

Of course, such a good thing is just a matter of luck. After all, we have been fighting wits and courage with Baiyin for so many years, and everyone is already familiar with the routines of both sides. In this case, playing hide-and-seek itself is just a matter of luck, so no one can judge what the consequences will be.

Of course, whether or not she could find it was obviously no big deal for Yu. After all, she had been trying to destroy Baiyin for so many years and there was no need to rush. In fact, her real goal now was not Baiyin, but the existence of those Baiyin clones that Baiyin used to create a maze.

By constantly destroying Baiyin's clones, she created the illusion that she was here to cause trouble for the other party. Baiyin, who had absorbed too much negative emotions and became suspicious, would obviously transfer whatever he was doing at the first moment and deploy more clones to confuse Yu at the same time. And this... was exactly her purpose!

"In that case... this guy probably won't be able to take care of the Mage Tower for the time being, right?"

Through his own sensitivity to time, Yu could vaguely sense that his sister's return would not be far away. Not only that, things in the Demon Realm had been delayed for a thousand years. After the battle summoned by Yu Huan a few days ago, Yu undoubtedly obtained a lot of information, including the so-called secrets of the Demon Realm.

"Calculating the time, the seal... will soon be lifted!"

Thinking so in his mind, Yu would naturally not allow Baiyin to disturb him in this situation, so... he could only ask the tool man around him to help chase him!

Anyway, this guy seems to be enjoying it!

With this in mind, Yu took Ling and wandered through the ruins, constantly inflicting devastating attacks on Baiyin's clone. The previous battle in the ruined city was just a very normal part of it.

Silver's characteristic is to devour everything, and the more energy-rich the material is, the more it is welcomed by it. In this case, those places with remnants of ancient technology or magical relics are undoubtedly the focus of its search in the main world, and this city is one of them.

When Yu and Ling arrived, they found that this seemingly normal city had already been completely swallowed up by silver, and the silver liquid was flowing under almost the entire city.

After using the black hole to destroy it, Ling found out that the energy of this city had been absorbed, so naturally there was no value in recycling it, so he didn't care. Yu was also concerned about other things, so he didn't take it too seriously. So not long after the two of them left, as the remaining silver power was gradually dissipating in the air and was about to disappear completely, an invisible wave suddenly came from underground. After a wide-area scan, it finally stopped directly on the silver liquid that was about to disappear.

"Usable energy detected, analyzing composition... Absorbing pure energy... Energy transfer initiated!"

The power of silver is a world-class power. Even if it is just a tiny bit that is not even a residue, it is undoubtedly the purest power for this world.

And for something that is just missing a key besides this power... it is undoubtedly the last straw that breaks the camel's back!

26. Transmission... failed?

"So... where am I?"

The golden time gate behind him finally slowly disappeared, and the golden belt around his waist also turned into countless lights and disappeared in front of him at this moment. The power that had been consumed in it all returned to the Book of Demons.

"It's locked up again! This cooldown and mana consumption are really enough!"

Oma Zi-O's belt is not complete, and the negative effect it brings is that it consumes a lot of energy every time it is used. All the abilities in the Kamen Rider series will basically enter a cooling-off period. Although it cannot be said that it is completely unusable, the effects have obviously lost a lot of diversity... At least forget about the Ultimate form!

"Forget it, judging by the situation, he should be back!"

Standing in the endless darkness, Yu Huan did not feel anxious at all. After blinking and looking at the faintly visible patterns on the stone wall in the dim space, Yu Huan guessed that he was probably underground in some ruins... Of course, this was not the point. The point was that based on the power of time used at the end, he should have returned to the correct era, right?

"The current time should be three years after my initial battle with Zero. Excluding the one and a half years of amnesia in the Hero Plane, I spent about a year and a half in the Demon Realm a thousand years ago... Time rules are really strict!"

Even traveling through time and space has its own rules. Although those rules are basically nothing to the King of Time, Yu Huan is now at most an heir to the throne. Before becoming the true King of Time, he obviously cannot control time accurately. Therefore, certain rules still need to be adapted... such as the correspondence of time!

In other words, how long did she stay there a thousand years ago? In fact, the time on her original timeline was also constantly moving forward, so now it has been three years since she left the ruined continent.

"Well~~ not long!"

In this way, after some self-talk, he finally figured out the current situation. In short, he was back, and only about three years had passed. According to the information provided by Xiao Ya and others, after her disappearance, the people headed by Tian Ling took Zeya to build a city called Tianyu City in the ruins of the Sky City.

Very good, then my current goal is certain, which is...

"go home!"

Everyone has built a home for themselves, a city with their own family and home. In fact, Yu Huan has been looking forward to Tianyu City for a long time. Now that he is finally back, the first thing he does is naturally to go home!

Thinking of this, he casually tossed the job card (magician) in his hand. At this moment, Yu Huan obviously had no intention of wasting time exploring the surroundings or finding a way out. He used the job card to directly perform a dream summon.

"Om~~"

In an instant, a purple forked long dress appeared on her body. Her silver hair turned light purple at this moment, and her pupils, which were originally black with a hint of gold, also turned deep purple at this moment.

"High-speed divine words (I can't fight)..."

A long magic wand appeared in his hand, and the high-speed divine words were instantly activated. The spells from the space magic unfolded under his feet in an instant. Although he didn't know the exact coordinates of Tianyu City, it was obvious that Yu Huan planned to leave this cave somewhere first, at least until he reached the ground, so that he could find the nearby scavenger village and then clear his current location.

Although that happened a long time ago, Yuhuan was still a scavenger, so he had some experience in this area.

"Teleport!"

As the purple light flickered, the complex and intricate magic circle spun beneath his feet, exerting its effect. As the magic power flowed, Yu Huan was about to be enveloped by the light, and he was also thinking about what to do next:

"First, I need to find a village to confirm my current location. Then, even if I can't directly find the coordinates of Tianyu City, I'll at least go to Tianta City. Luo Luo should be able to help me get back. After arriving in Tianyu City, I'll go to the Demon Realm... It seems that Sister Xiaoya and the others have also gone to the Demon Realm. I'll just meet up with them and then go find Xiaomeng and the others. I wonder how they're doing now, a thousand years later... Although I don't seem to have a real sense of it!"

After all, a thousand years had passed for others, but for Yuhuan only a few minutes had passed, so it was not wrong to say that it did not feel real.

"But if you think about it carefully, don't I still have a lot of things to deal with?"

Originally, he thought that after coming back, he would be able to live a leisurely life as he had imagined before, especially since he was now a truly wealthy person who owned a city. In this case, life should be leisurely. However, after careful consideration, Yu Huan suddenly found that he still seemed to have a lot of things to deal with.

"Am I born to be a hard worker?"

Such doubts arose in his mind, but his thoughts were soon turned away. After eliminating these unresolved situations, Yu Huan soon discovered something... not quite right!

"Speaking of which... I seem to have been teleported for a long time, why... am I still in the same place?"

Blinking his eyes, Yu Huan came back to his senses and immediately stared blankly at the darkness in front of him. With the help of the gradually fading light of the teleportation array under his feet, he could clearly see the uneven stone walls... Wait, the gradually fading light of the teleportation array?

"what's going on?"

The magic power within the teleportation array was rapidly disappearing... This was the moment he lowered his head, and the magical knowledge from the God-era witch in his mind clearly told him the situation. Although it was normal for the magic power within the teleportation array to disappear, the premise of this so-called normal phenomenon was that the person within it was being teleported. But now...

"The question is, I'm still here, where did the magic power consumed by the teleportation formation go?"

A dazzling light instantly radiated from his purple eyes. Using his perception of magic, Yu Huan instantly raised his head. Following some kind of induction extended by the teleportation array, his gaze suddenly fixed on the endless darkness in front of the cave in front of him.

With the help of the light from the teleportation array that had not yet completely disappeared, Yu Huan took a closer look and realized that he was not in a closed stone wall, but a passage with stone walls on both sides, but under his feet there was an obvious road-like structure...?

A passage that leads to nowhere!

"I didn't happen to fall into some ruins, did I?"

At this moment, Yu Huan thought so.

27. Holy crap, someone is stealing my master?!

"Sister is back!"

In Tianyu City, Yu Yuan, who was originally handling the business at hand, suddenly raised her head at a certain moment. Blue data lights flashed in her pair of light golden pupils, and one could clearly see a bright light flashing in the eyes of the little girl at this moment... Although she always complained about her sister's various behaviors of neglecting the family, she was obviously the happiest one about Yu Huan's return.

"Huh? Really? Where?"

Although Tian Ling was also busy and exhausted because of the irresponsible departure of some responsible persons, he still raised his head and looked at Yu Yuan at this moment after hearing her words. His eyes were also full of excitement and he said without thinking:

"Hurry up and give me the coordinates. I'll send someone to pick her up immediately!"

Tianyu City had not been built before Yu Huan left, so even if he came back, he would definitely not know the exact location of this place. Thinking of this, Tian Ling decisively wanted to send someone to pick him up. However, after hearing her words, Yu Yuan did not answer immediately. Instead, after a moment of silence, he suddenly... slammed the document in his hand to the ground.

"Snapped !"

The loud noise obviously startled Tian Ling. Not to mention her, even Luo Liao, who had just walked in and was planning to visit, was startled... Having lived in Tianyu City for a few days, relying on his friendship with Yu Huan and his easy-going personality, Luo Liao was obviously doing well here. From time to time, he would come out of his residence and wander around the inner city.

Of course, he also knew his limits and knew clearly which places he could go to and which places he could not go to. Therefore, over time, neither Yu Yuan nor Tian Ling cared much about him. Sometimes he would even come out to visit like this, and occasionally chat with Tian Ling and Yu Yuan, the only two senior officials stationed in Tianyu City.

That’s right, the only ones... With Feng Qianxue, Cai Xiaolin and others’ team heading to the ruins to look for Honggu and others, and Xiao Ya’s team heading to the Demon Realm to look for Yu Huan, there are only these two people left in the inner area of ​​Tianyu City who have a say. As for Zeya, who is the main control satellite... its artificial intelligence is still immature, so it has not been granted management authority for the time being and is still in the learning process!

And after spending the past few days together, it was obvious that Luo Liao had a certain understanding of Tianling and Yuyuan, the two artificial intelligence girls. How to say it... Although they can't be said to have a very good temper, they are still high-ranking officials after all, and the proper temperament and calmness are obviously still very important... At least from the time he came here until now, he has never seen this girl named Yuyuan, who seems to be Yuhuan's sister, change her expression.

You know, even he was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped when he found out that these two people were actually artificial intelligence life forms. However, from the time he arrived until now, he has never seen any other expression except smile on their faces.

Well, it’s worth mentioning that the smile was not directed at him. It was only Tianling’s social smile that was directed at him. As for Yuyuan... he didn’t even look at him!

I have to say this is a sad story, but at least he is a handsome guy!

Ahem~~ I've strayed off topic. Anyway... I've never seen Yu Yuan's expression so gloomy before. This wasn't just true for Luo Luo, who had just entered the room, but also for Tian Ling. So much so that when the sound of the document falling to the ground rang out, she was stunned for a long moment before she cautiously asked, "What are you doing?"

"Um...Yuanyuan, what's wrong?"

Because there are two Yuyuans in Tianyu City now... well, the one in front of you, and the other is the Saint of the Mirror Organization. In order to distinguish the two, the Saint is currently called "Yu" by everyone, and the one in front of you is called Yuanyuan.

"..."

Faced with Tianling's inquiry, Yuyuan did not respond immediately. At this moment, the gloomy look on that seemingly unreal face could be clearly seen. This had never been revealed on Yuyuan's face even when Yuhuan suddenly disappeared a thousand years ago. But now it appeared on this cute little face, which showed that something big had happened.

"..."

On the side, Luo Luo didn't dare to breathe, because at this moment he could clearly feel the solemnity in the air... Could something big have happened?

Just as both of them were thinking this, the originally silent Yu Yuan finally spoke. However, he did not immediately explain anything, but directly said to Tian Ling:

"Tianling, count the strength of all Kamen Rider Corps and Magical Girl Sky Scout Corps of Tianyu. At the same time, issue SSS-level missions to all registered adventurers and scavengers affiliated with Tianyu City. The deadline is three days from now... No time to lose!"

"Uh... SSS-level mission? What kind of mission?"

The sudden order obviously made Tianling a little confused, but he still nodded obediently. With a thought, he connected with Zeya and sent all the relevant information through her. However, because Yuyuan's order came too suddenly and nonsensical, honestly speaking, neither Tianling nor Zeya knew what the content of the task should be.

At this time, Yu Yuan spoke again and finally stated the content of the mission, which was:

"Rescue the city lord!"

The last two words were obviously spoken with great emphasis, and even Tian Ling could hear the gnashing of teeth... I can only feel that these are not words of rescue, but rather words that sound like you want to put your master into your mouth and eat him up with a crunch?

A few words of complaint flashed through my mind, but this was obviously not the point at the moment. The point was...

"Something happened to the master?!"

With the cry of surprise, even the way he addressed the person changed back to his original form unconsciously, which showed Tian Ling's shock at the moment. Luo Luo on the side was obviously the same. After hearing the news that Yu Huan was in trouble, his originally casual face suddenly became serious... He came to negotiate with the Lord of Tianyu City. If something happened to the other party at this time, it was obvious that this negotiation would be out of the question!

Besides, from a personal perspective, Yu Huan was also his comrade-in-arms who had fought side by side with him. He hadn't been able to help when something happened before, so this time, he obviously couldn't miss it no matter what!

Thinking of this, Luo Luo immediately looked at Yu Yuan, waiting for him to continue speaking. If possible... he was willing to lend a helping hand!

Facing the two people's curious gazes, Yu Yuan finally did not keep them in suspense and directly told them the details of what he had detected when he was checking Yu Huan's position. However, the content of his words was:

"Nah, some intelligent life form that just woke up in some ruins actually dared to compete with me, the First Order, for their master. Are they tired of living and want to be the unmanned leader of Tianyu City?!"

28. Trapped

(Multiple lines unfold, a new volume opens...)

In a dim underground cave, with a faint blue light illuminating the entire cave, several figures are resting inside.

The cave is not very small, and it looks like it has the space of a classroom. It is more than enough to set up a few tents in it. However, it seems a bit crowded because there are too many people in it.

Overall, there are about a dozen tents, half of which are slightly open, and you can see human figures lying inside. These people are all wearing gray-yellow clothes that cover half of their bodies like special forces soldiers. Only the hoods have been removed and they are lying in the clothes as if unconscious. From their red faces, it can be seen that the situation is obviously not very good.

These people were placed there randomly, and compared to these guys, about ten in total, the three people with the same clothes on the other side were obviously treated much better: they were three people dressed the same as the figures in the tent, a middle-aged man and two young men, but at this time they were not lying in the tent, but were lying quietly on a big stone with a soft mattress, wrapped in white light.

These three people were none other than the ones who had been missing for more than a dozen volumes... No, they were the three people that Yu Huan had first known after disappearing in the ruins for a long time: Hong Gu, Cai Xiaoxiao and Cai Xiaohou!

Beside them, Cai Xiaolin was constantly releasing light magic to heal the three people. The faint white light came from her hands. On the other side, Feng Qianxue was also constantly using her own magic power to nourish the three people. Compared with the treatment of those scavengers in the tent, it was obvious that the three people were treated completely differently.

At the same time, in an open space not far away, the figures of two other girls were sitting there as if on guard, their eyes looking towards the only exit of the stone cave: a tunnel that seemed to be split apart, and at the end of the stone tunnel suddenly turned into a tunnel composed of dense metal plates.

While on guard, both Xia Miao and Ning Xiaomo were fiddling with a metal object similar to a bracelet. At this moment, Cai Xiaolin and Feng Qianxue, who had finished their daily treatment, came over. Feng Qianxue immediately asked Ning Xiaomo:

"How is it? Have you made contact?"

Under such a question, the two of them shook their heads at the same time:

"No, there's absolutely no signal!"

Ning Xiaomo helplessly unfolded the communication bracelet in his hand and said with a wry smile:

"It's not just Zeya's signal. I just tried the contract signal. Apart from being able to sense that the contractual connection with Xiaohuan has suddenly strengthened, I can't contact anyone else at all!"

Xia Miao on the side also nodded:

"Gaia's memory transformation function is still usable, but it seems that apart from being able to connect the database to everyone present, it can't contact anyone else!"

Feng Qianxue couldn't help but smack her tongue at the completely hopeless situation.

"Wow~~ This is really a bit disgusting. Xiao Huan's problem has just been resolved, and he was about to return, but we are trapped here. This is really..."

Before, they suddenly received a call from Yu Huan. After transforming themselves, everyone was summoned by Yu Huan to the Demon Realm which was said to be a thousand years ago. After experiencing a battle and understanding the other party's situation, Feng Qianxue and others came back again.

Feng Qianxue and the other three, who had already discovered the unconscious Hong Gu and others at the edge of what seemed to be the ruins, had actually originally planned to explore the ruins that had trapped Hong Gu and others for so long. Then, thinking that Yu Huan would be coming back soon, the four of them immediately prepared to return to Sky City and reunite with Xiao Huan.

However, they never expected that just when the dead man was about to leave with the unconscious scavengers, the underground ruins that seemed to be quiet were suddenly activated at this moment.

The reason for the activation was unknown, but at that moment Feng Qianxue and the others clearly discovered that the entire ruins seemed to have come alive. Some metal buildings that were originally buried deep underground suddenly soared into the sky and appeared above the ruins in the vast desert. The moment the huge castle-like metal building rose up, the various bottom crusts under the ground of the surrounding collapsed ruins also moved.

Unfortunately, when they found Honggu and the others, Feng Qianxue and the others happened to be underground instead of on the ground, so... they were unfortunately involved.

Originally, it would have been fine. After all, if they were just buried underground, any one of them could have simply used their strength to blast a way out. However, the trouble lay in the environment they were in... It happened to be right next to one of the entrances of this huge metal castle!

Perhaps because something in it was activated, the entire metal castle could be said to have come alive at this moment, and all invaders were directly eliminated, whether they were scavengers coming to explore from other directions or strange beasts entrenched in it, etc., without exception, including Feng Qianxue and others.

Of course, the girls are very powerful, and they can obviously deal with the castle's defense measures without any problem...but they can only cope with it to the extent that they can!
