Just a magical girl who picks up trash

She suddenly turned around as if she wanted to look for the person who had just spoken, but there were so many people in the mercenary guild, and the venue was so large that she didn't know who the person who had just said that name was. At that moment, Xia Yu obviously didn't bother to look at the task and hurriedly looked around. She still couldn't find the mercenary who had just spoken, so she could only come to the mercenary task counter again.

"Welcome! Are you commissioning a mission or accepting one? If so, please present your mercenary or scavenger ID. We will automatically search for relevant missions for you!"

The receptionist, Miss Xumagia, smiled sweetly at Xia Yu in front of her. Her gentle tone seemed to soothe Xia Yu's original anxiety. As she gradually calmed down, she had already analyzed a lot of things in her mind in an instant.

Listening to what those people said just now, it is obvious that 'Xia Miao' seems to have a status in Tianyu City, and even a high status. Patroller... I seemed to have heard Zhao Tian mention it before. It is an existence in Tianyu City similar to the executor of Tianta City, and its status is second only to the tower master.

If that was the case, then it meant that many people must know about 'Xia Miao'. Therefore, Xia Yu, who had gradually calmed down after thinking about it, immediately went to the counter without hesitation, looked at the young lady Xiu Magia in front of him and asked:

"I want to ask someone!"

Asking for information is also possible here. As a service-oriented Xiumagia, the receptionist will obviously not refuse any questions from the guests, so she immediately smiled and nodded, indicating that the other party should tell the other party's name or some characteristics.

"Xia meow!"

“…Okay, please wait!”

Without any hesitation, she said these two words. After Miss Xiumagia responded, she closed her eyes and seemed to have entered a state of searching. After a long time, she opened her eyes and showed Xia Yu an elegant and polite smile:

"Sorry, no records of the mercenary or scavenger named 'Xia Miao' in Tianyu City were found!"

The light words undoubtedly made Xia Yu stunned. No...?

It was obvious that Xumagia was incapable of lying. Did he mishear it? Or was his hope so strong that what he had just heard was actually an illusion?

With this thought in mind, Xia Yu's face showed obvious disappointment, and he turned around and walked outside.

Another hope was met with another disappointment. Although this kind of blow was obviously not the first time, Xia Yu still felt as if the world in front of her was filled with gray at that moment. She almost didn't know how to leave Tianyu City. When her feet stepped on the hot sand, she suddenly looked up at the slightly gloomy sky in a daze. After a long time, she suddenly thought of something and opened her eyes wide.

Wait, the reception robot just said that... there was no record of the activity of a scavenger or mercenary named 'Xia Miao', but it didn't seem to say that there was no record of the activity of a... ranger named Xia Miao, right?

If I heard correctly before, it seems that Xia Miao is not a scavenger nor a mercenary, but a ranger affiliated with Tianyu City, whose position is far higher than that!

Xia Yu might not know the exact status of the Rangers in Tianyu City, but if that were the case... it was only natural for the Humagia robots, a type of robot that Tianyu City produced in large quantities, to protect their "superiors'" personal information. Furthermore, the other party didn't seem to be lying, but was just...

"Mislead me?"

He deliberately said that there was no record of scavengers and mercenaries' activities instead of no record of 'Xia Miao''s activities. This was obviously a statement with grammatical errors.

So the question is…why would the other party mislead me for no reason?

If we follow this line of thought, then there is undoubtedly only one answer that is closest to it:

"She knows who Xia Miao is, and...she can't tell!"

Why can't I tell you? It's simple, because Xia Miao...

"He holds a higher position in Tianyu City than her. Does she need to protect his...information?"

At that moment, Xia Yu suddenly felt... his heart was beating violently. It was nervousness, excitement, and the feeling of finally finding hope... mixed with a little bit of desire for a miracle!

148. Treatment Ends

After getting the clue from Xia Miao, Xia Yu did not act impulsively. On the one hand, the wandering life over the past few years had taught her to be calm. On the other hand, there were people she cared about in the scavenging group.

Fortunately, the clue has been confirmed and Tianyu City will not run away, so she doesn't have to worry too much. She was originally planning to go back to find Zhao Tian and complete what she promised to the other party.

The younger sister must be found, and the irreconcilable hatred between her and Xia Zhaoyan must be resolved. Although Xia Yu may not have any interest in being the leader of the cat tribe, it is obvious that she has no interest. However, after all, it is something left by her parents, and coupled with the account with her younger sister, she must settle it with Xia Zhaoyan no matter what.

And after that, if everything could end smoothly, Xia Yu thought... maybe he could...

However, sometimes dreams are always beautiful, but the cruelest thing is that the first word of the dream is "dream"!

Accidents often happen suddenly when you have no time to react, just like this time... The sudden silver invasion and the inexplicable silver disease directly led to the annihilation of their team. No one was spared except her and Zhao Tian. After all, they were teammates who had been together for so long. It was obviously impossible for them to have no fluctuations in their hearts. However, the only thing that made Xia Yu feel fortunate was that Zhao Tian was fine.

However, they were no match for the powerful Silver. Faced with the opponent's immortality and almost unstoppable devouring power, although Xia Yu's power could temporarily play a certain role in restraining it, it was ultimately unable to truly fight against that Silver. The only one who could fight against Silver... was the Tianyu City Ranger (Guardian)!

After realizing this, Xia Yu did not hesitate and immediately sent Zhao Tian to Tianyu City. On the one hand, it was indeed to seek rescue, but on the other hand, it was also for Zhao Tian's safety.

It was not until he was sure that the other party had gone far away that Xia Yu felt the burden in his heart slightly relieved. And when Tian Ling arrived, to be honest, it was at that moment that Xia Yu felt completely relieved.

The people from Tianyu City have arrived, which means the captain is safe!

With this in mind, everything became much simpler for Xia Yu: for a Baiyin who was crippled by his "master", facing the powerful force he had just obtained after signing the contract, it was obviously not a mysterious and difficult thing for him to destroy the other party.

That's right, in Xia Yu's opinion, the so-called Ranger Contract was actually a "master-slave contract". After all, as an orc who had been trafficked before, she knew very well that there was no free lunch in this world, and the other party would not be nice to her for no reason. After signing the contract, although she also learned the truth about the silver from the contract, she still maintained this attitude.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Xia Yu has any resistance or disgust towards this contract. On the contrary, she is very grateful for this contract and the hope that the other party has given her. Of course, the most important thing is that if she is to be a servant, then instead of being a slave to those nobles in the Demon Realm, it seems that being a knight for the Demon King or the Goddess... wouldn't it be better?

With this thought in mind, Xia Yu opened his eyes slightly and the first thing he felt was the soft touch all over his body as if he was soaking in a hot spring. The white halo was reflected in his azure eyes the moment he opened his eyes. It was not dazzling but gave people a warm feeling. Xia Yu then realized that he seemed to be lying in a completely enclosed and narrow environment.

Under the white light, she could clearly see that she was being wrapped in a pure white metal device. She felt a little restrained, but just as she moved, a gentle voice suddenly rang out from her ears:

"Treatment completed, opening the treatment chamber..."

Treatment chamber? Was he being treated?

The sound of the electronic sound made Xia Yu subconsciously feel his body, and he found that the damage he had suffered from the silver attack had disappeared without a trace at some point, and instead, he felt a comfortable feeling as if the power of the wind element that continued to flow into his body and the new power were slowly merging.

Xia Yu knew very well that it was the power from the Brave System.

From today on, she is no longer a down-and-out princess of the cat clan, nor a scavenger, but a ranger... This was something she had already understood clearly after signing the contract. Of course, Xia Yu had nothing to be dissatisfied with. After all, if it weren't for this power, she might have been beheaded long ago.

And now...

"I need to explain this to the captain..."

The contract was her own decision. In Xia Yu's opinion, Zhao Tian obviously didn't know about it, so she felt a little flustered and didn't seem to know how to explain it to the captain. Xia Yu just quietly watched the 'lid' above her head open silently without knowing when.

After reacting immediately, she sat up from the bed in the next second. She looked down and found that her scavenger clothes had disappeared at some point. Instead, she was wearing a pure white dress without any decorations but with an inexplicable simple beauty.

Xia Yu sat up from the object that looked like a bed or a half-open capsule and then walked down. She immediately looked around at the pure white room. After a moment of trance, she realized that she was probably in the "hospital" of Tianyu City. She just didn't know why she didn't see anyone. However, Xia Yu just blinked and was about to walk towards the door. The next second, a flash of light appeared and a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Om~~"

"Hey? You're awake? What a coincidence!"

A smiling voice came from the front, accompanied by rays of data flashing before her eyes, and soon a figure of a girl made entirely of blue light appeared in front of her.

Apart from being a phantom, the other person was wearing the same white long dress as Xia Yu. The figure floating in the air looked like a perfect woman from the outside. Her face was stunningly beautiful but also had a bit of heroic spirit. The expression she showed towards Xia Yu was gentle with a hint of warmth.

It was a look that was somewhat familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar at the same time... How should I put it? It was like the look my parents' friends and elders gave me when they were still alive. It was also a bit like the look between teammates in the former scavenger team.

149. My sister

He is a companion, a junior and seems to be a family member... Just a glance, without too many words, seemed to indicate that Xia Yu had understood something in just a moment. The slight vigilance that had just arisen from the other party's sudden appearance instantly disappeared from his heart.

"You are……"

She opened her mouth to ask the other party. It seemed that Xia Yu, who was not good at speaking, really didn't know how to communicate with outsiders. After all, under the shadow of the same year, even Zhao Tian actually took several years to be able to talk to her on the phone under normal circumstances. However, even so, Xia Yu was actually silent most of the time.

At this moment, the girl in front of her made her feel a sense of familiarity and identification. She knew very well that this was probably because she and the other party had become "family" after signing the contract, but she still... enjoyed such a look very much.

However, this feeling of enjoyment soon changed slightly after the words spoken by the girl opposite, and turned into anxiety!

"We can introduce ourselves later, and say hello later. We'll be family from now on anyway, so there's no need for those empty promises. The situation is a bit urgent right now, so I need to confirm something with you first!"

The words came directly from Tian Ling's mouth at a very fast speed. Although the tone was still calm, it could make people feel the urgency of time at this moment. Xia Yu nodded in a daze, and then heard Tian Ling continue:

"What's your relationship with Xia Miao?"

At the same time as these words came out suddenly, a light curtain suddenly unfolded in front of Xia Yu. The scene that appeared in the light curtain undoubtedly made Xia Yu's eyes widen instantly, and he looked at it in disbelief:

In a silver temple-like hall, mechanical bodies wearing heavy silver-white armor slowly emerged one after another from the silver liquid that was like a quagmire. The surroundings were clearly visible as if they had just experienced a great battle. Countless silver-white wreckages of mechanical bodies slowly sank into it. At the last position where all the mechanical bodies were placed, one could even see a huge behemoth sitting there, looking down at the ministers and... the disobedient people below like a high king!

And the so-called disobedient person is... a young girl!

She has long black hair and looks more cute than beautiful. She is a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that at this moment, not to mention the girl's face which is almost exactly the same as Xia Yu's except for the hair, the pair of pitch-black cat ears on her head and the pitch-black cat tail that occasionally appears between the hem of her skirt undoubtedly prove her identity at this moment.

"Xia... meow?"

There was no need to doubt or confirm anything. With just one glance, Xia Yu had obviously confirmed the other party's identity in an instant. However, the next second she suddenly discovered that when Xia Miao was half-kneeling in front of the group of mechanical bodies, there was a trace of bright red blood at the corner of her mouth on her fair face.

Is she hurt?

And this scene...she's fighting?!

After instantly figuring out what state Xia Miao was in, Xia Yu turned to look at Tian Ling without even thinking, and said decisively without waiting for the other party to speak:

"She's my sister, where... is she?"

Looking at the appearance in the light screen, there is no need to guess that it must be silver. After learning about the true existence of silver from the contract, Xia Yu can almost be sure that it is definitely high-level silver or even... one of the real bodies of silver. His sister is obviously fighting with the other party and the battle situation... is very unfavorable!

At this moment, there was no need to ask any questions. Everything was obviously unimportant. Xia Yu, who only had concern for Xia Miao in his eyes, immediately asked this.

"Sure enough, I said they looked quite similar, huh..."

Listening to Xia Yu's anxious words, Tian Ling nodded as if to say "as expected" and looked at Xia Yu with a more intimate gaze, and immediately said:

"Don't worry. Although what I'm showing you now is a real-time broadcast, nothing's actually wrong with me, Meow..."

It was indeed nothing, it was just that the suppression of the silver was too strong, which caused the clone "Yu Huan" to be expelled from the silver space. Therefore, Xia Miao's original transformation state was forcibly released, and he was hit by the attack unexpectedly, so he suffered some minor injuries.

Of course, the injury was obviously not serious, but the fact that Xia Miao, one of the mascots of Tianyu City, was injured... was enough to make everyone, including Tian Ling and others, furious, especially Yu Huan, who was responsible for the injury to Xia Miao due to his own negligence.

It is said that she has now directly used the power of Hei Yu to create a mirror clone that has inherited her true power and rushed to the Silver Temple to settle accounts with Baiyin, while Tian Ling and others are preparing to provide support to Xia Miao.

Because she is not good at fighting... or fighting alone, Xia Miao, who is kind by nature, was matched with the "two-in-one" Kamen Rider W (Double Rider) when she signed the Ranger Contract, and thus became the owner of this belt.

However, although the Double Riding Belt is extremely powerful in some aspects, and has the powerful ability to connect to the core of the world (this is not the earth, there is no earth core!), so that it knows everything that happens in this world, its shortcomings are also very obvious: without the cooperation of partners, Xia Miao, who can only transform into an "ace", can actually not exert strong combat power.

In fact, compared to fighting, she is more suitable for intelligence gathering and other work. However, the appearance of the Silver Temple this time was too sudden. In addition, there were not many combat forces among the patrollers of Tianyu City who could go to the Silver Temple. As one of the main riders of Tianyu City, Xia Miao naturally had no choice but to rush forward.

Originally, everything was fine. With Yu Huan's care and Xia Miao just not liking fighting, his actual combat capability was not a problem, so he could easily defeat the group of silver clones of the Silver Temple. However, the problem lay in the energy form of the Silver Temple itself.

The power of the system has a restraining effect on silver, just like water and fire. However, sometimes water can extinguish fire, but it will also be evaporated by fire. This undoubtedly depends on the strength of both parties.

Yu Huan, who carries the power of the system, is ultimately just a clone, while the Silver Temple is the location of the real Silver body, which has half of Silver's power. Moreover, it is under the Silver body that has swallowed up the entire mirror universe. Naturally, Yu Huan's power has become the suppressed one.

150. Transformation

And it was precisely because of the suppression that Yu Huan might have been able to maintain her strength and hold on when she first broke through the levels. The most important thing was that since it was always Xia Miao who took action, she didn't need to be too distracted. However, who would have thought that just after Xia Miao had finally broken through the sixth level and reached the seventh level, the sudden silver power erupted, and Yu Huan's clone, who finally couldn't hold on, was directly dispersed.

The sudden change scared Yu Huan herself, not to mention other people. Although the Ranger would not die or even be swallowed by Baiyin under the existence of the contract, it was undoubtedly not what Yu Huan wanted to see if Xiao Miao really fell into Baiyin's hands. Therefore, she almost rushed out of the Goddess Ruins by carrying Xiao Miao away.

Of course, just when Yu Huan was about to break through the system's obstacles and rush out, Xia Miao suddenly broke out at the critical moment, destroyed those silver machines and temporarily retreated. Although he suffered some minor injuries, at least the worst situation that Yu Huan imagined did not happen.

Because of the termination of the transformation, Xia Miao was obviously weakened a lot. Yu Huan was obviously not able to break through the barriers of the plane or even the obstruction of the Silver Temple to reach Xia Miao in a short period of time. Fortunately, because Xia Miao's belt was set with the meaning of "two in one", it was not a problem to find a helper for her at the critical moment.

After all, as early as when they understood the nature of Xia Miao's belt, it was specifically to prevent this kind of thing. With Xiao Ya's action and the joint efforts of Zeya, Tianling and others, almost every girl had a W belt distributed in her body. The purpose was undoubtedly to be able to support Xia Miao anytime and anywhere.

After all, if they dare to touch their own little cat... and fail to kill it, then their lives will obviously be in vain!

Because Xiao Ya and others were also fighting in the Silver Temple, it was obviously impossible for them to lose consciousness and be in such a dangerous situation at this time. Even if they agreed, Xia Miao would not agree. Therefore, the only people who could provide support in the end were undoubtedly Tian Ling and Ze Ya who were stationed in Tianyu City.

Just when Zeya was about to let Tianling command the rangers outside and go to slack off... no, go to help Xia Miao, Tianling suddenly stopped him and said to the world, "There are people more suitable than us", and then disappeared in front of Zeya in the blink of an eye.

And the so-called most suitable person... you don't have to think about it to know that it must be Xia Yu!

"That's basically the situation. So now we need you to help your sister deal with the silver. What do you think?"

After calmly explaining the general situation, Zeya very considerately adjusted the flow of data and time in the room for the two of them to allow for more time. This was also the reason why Xia Yu was able to calmly listen to all the causes and consequences that Tian Ling had to say.

And how should we react after listening to it?

What do you think... Do you even need to think about it? There's no need for any reason at this time!

“Tell me what to do!”

Not to mention that her original purpose of coming here was for her sister. Just looking at her sister with blood oozing from her mouth in the light curtain at this moment, Xia Yu felt like her heart was about to explode. She didn't have this feeling even when she was betrayed by Xia Zhaoyan. The only time she had this feeling seemed to be when she learned the fact about her sister and when she was "sent" to the Science and Technology City by Xia Zhaoyan for research.

And now, his sister was right in front of him, and in danger... What else did he need to do?!

"then!"

Tian Ling didn't say much about Xia Yu's question, but just casually made a move. In the next second, the data light flashed. Xia Yu subconsciously stretched out her hand and spread it out again. An emerald green USB flash drive-like object appeared in her hand.

"My master... Xiao Huan asked me to give it to you, saying that compared to the others, you might be the one who can best unleash this power together with Xiao Miao. However, I think the little girl's words are not what she really means. After all, she's so jealous, tsk tsk~~"

As if he had thought of something, Tian Ling's face undoubtedly showed a hint of... teasing expression, as if something interesting had happened before.

"Xiao Huan... Lord Demon King?"

Xia Yu didn't know who Xiao Huan was, but since Tian Ling, one of the patrollers, called him "master", Xia Yu obviously understood his identity. However, the moment was obviously not the time to think about these things, and he nodded gratefully at Tian Ling.

"grateful!"

According to Tianling, it should have been her or Zeya who supported Xia Miao, but from the other party's tone, it was obvious that they did not care about the silver. However, even so, Tianling gave this opportunity to herself. This favor... she remembered!

"You're welcome. I think you should have learned how to use Gaia's memory when we signed the contract. Go quickly. I'm really looking forward to the sisterly reunion!"

The smiling words made Xia Yu nod again. When he saw the other party about to leave, Tian Ling, who was slowly disappearing, suddenly spoke again:
