Just a magical girl who picks up trash

"Great, that's all right!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Huan nodded in satisfaction. If it was just a trial, she obviously didn't need to worry too much.

"So... what should we do after we get married?"

He was the only one left on the bus. He silently looked at the endless yellow sand scenery around him and the robot in front of him that was still driving the car methodically. After a moment of thought, Yu placed his hands decisively on his waist.

"Just in case, I'd better transform first..."

Unknown dangers are always the most terrifying, so just in case, Yu Huan originally wanted to transform into Kuuga to increase her sensitivity. However, just as she put her hands on her waist, her movements suddenly stopped the next second, and then she seemed to suddenly think of something and slowly put her hands down.

"Owner?"

Tian Ling, who was obviously puzzled by Yu Huan's behavior, looked at her, but saw Yu Huan was silent for two seconds and then suddenly laughed:

"The spatial isolation and all that... I forgot I could cheat!"

Tian Ling was stunned by the sudden words, and the next second Tian Ling instantly understood what Yu Huan meant, because at this moment Yu Huan, who had given up on transforming into Kuuga, had taken out his purple-black memory stick.

"Om~~~"

With a flash of red light, a red W belt appeared around his waist. Without hesitation, Yu Huan pressed the switch around his waist.

"Joker!"

The voice sounded but he was not in a hurry to insert it. Instead, he waited for a few seconds and then a sudden green data light flashed. The next second, an emerald green memory block slowly appeared on the right side of the belt.

"Great, it seems to work!"

Looking at the memory stick on his waist, Yu Huan nodded with satisfaction and inserted the ace memory stick in his hand into it without saying a word.

"Om~~~"

The surrounding wind wrapped around the fragments and slowly rose up to envelop them. When the emerald green wind dissipated, the smaller loli had turned into a tall knight who was half green and half purple.

"Oh, so awesome, so awesome! Is this the W armor? Xiao Huan, this armor of yours is truly amazing! It can even travel through space freely!"

Just as the transformation was about to end, a red light suddenly flashed from the knight's right eye, accompanied by words filled with excitement and curiosity. However, it was these words that made Yu Huan startled slightly, because it was not Xiao Ya's voice, but another voice that he was very familiar with. It was...

"Sister, why are you..."

Yu Huan has many sisters, but they are basically called by name. Among all the girls, there is obviously only one person whom she calls sister directly, and that is Feng Qianxue, who has the same guardian as her so far... That's right, her other half after transforming into W is not Xiao Ya, but Feng Qianxue. This situation obviously surprised Yu Huan.

"Hehe, you're scared, right~~"

In response to Yu Huan's surprised words, Feng Qianxue responded with a grin, to which Yu Huan nodded obediently:

"I was indeed shocked. So why are Sister Xiaoya's belt and memory stick with you?"

You have to know that ever since Yu Huan gave this belt to Xiao Ya, she has always treated it like a treasure. Not to mention giving it to others, she usually keeps a close watch on everyone, especially Cai Xiaolin and the others, as if it were a thief, fearing that the other party would succeed in getting it if they weren't paying attention. However, now, this belt that Xiao Ya had been guarding so closely against unexpectedly appeared in Feng Qianxue's hands, and she was even using it to transform...

"I got it!"

"Uh……"

He answered without thinking. Just when Yu Huan didn't know what to say, Feng Qianxue laughed again the next second:

"I was just kidding~~"

The words that came out of her breath instantly made Yu Huan's head full of black lines. If she wasn't in the transformation state, her cute little face would have been puffed up at this moment. She immediately said dissatisfiedly:

"So...what did you bring here for?"

Having been fooled, Yu Huan expressed his unhappiness!

"Haha~ Sorry, sorry, it's just that this is my first time merging with Xiao Huan, so I got a little carried away~~"

Hearing the unhappiness in Yu Huan's tone, Feng Qianxue immediately apologized with a wry smile, and then her expression gradually became serious, and she got straight to the point:

"Alright, enough kidding. Xiaoya actually gave me the belt from the beginning, so that I could contact you right now and tell you the current situation!"

It was obvious that Xiao Ya knew something long before the trial began, so she quietly handed her belt to Feng Qianxue before getting on the car. Although she really treasured this thing, it was obvious that Xiao Ya knew the importance of it, because facing this trial, Feng Qianxue, as a scavenger, was more suitable to guide Yu Huan than her.

Feng Qianxue immediately informed Yu Huan of all the information she knew without wasting any time:

"First of all, Xiao Huan, the place you are in now is called the Lost Desert, which is one of the trial spaces!"

This sentence roughly explained Yu Huan's current situation. Feng Qianxue then continued:

"This is a hidden device installed in the bus. The moment the bus leaves Tianji City, it will randomly teleport all the passengers inside, sending them to different trial spaces and giving them corresponding trials based on the number of people in the team!"

Their team consisted of four people, so the trial was conducted according to the four-person standard... That being said, it was actually similar to a single-player dungeon, because...

"The content of the trial requires you to find a gem buried in the heart of a sand beast in the Lost Desert. You must obtain the gem without killing the sand beast. Then, you must go to the altar in the center of the desert to activate the teleportation array. Then, Xiaohuan, you can use the teleportation array to leave the trial space and return to reality!"

The above is the most basic information. Of course, this is not the main point that Xiao Ya asked Feng Qianxue to deliver the message. The main point is Feng Qianxue's subsequent words:

"Also, regarding the characteristics of the sand beast and how to find it, this depends on..."

87. Searching for Sand Beasts

When it comes to scavengers' experience in finding their way in a maze and searching for strange beasts, Xiao Ya is obviously not as good as Feng Qianxue. That's why she gave the belt to her to guide Yu Huan to complete this trial. Feng Qianxue did not fail in her mission and told Yu Huan everything she knew in detail: how to identify directions in the desert, how to find traces of strange beasts, how to capture and take out gems without hurting the sand beasts.

After saying this, the two of them immediately canceled their transformation. After all, the price of transformation is that one party has to lose all consciousness. Yu Huan's side is a single-player copy, and Feng Qianxue's side is obviously the same, so naturally they can't delay any longer.

"Well, I understand the general situation!"

After hanging up the phone... no, after canceling the transformation and conveniently storing the memory in his hand into the system space, Yu Huan nodded in understanding.

"Simply put, you have to find a strange beast with a gem, then extract the gem without killing it, and bring it to the altar to complete the level!"

The trial method is simple and easy to understand, but in reality it is obviously not that simple. On the contrary, it should be said to be extremely difficult!

First of all, the sand beast is not the only strange beast in this desert, but the only tribe in this desert. In other words, there are obviously far more than one sand beast in the entire desert; secondly, not every sand beast has gems in its body, but only some special sand beasts with a very small probability have them. And it seems that because of the gems, this kind of sand beast not only has a particularly developed IQ, but also has very strong mobility and aggressiveness... Of course, in appearance, it is no different from an ordinary sand beast, but this is also one of the difficulties.

So the question is, how can a whole tribe of sand beasts determine which one has the gem in its body and snatch it away without killing them all?

What Feng Qianxue had taught Yu Huan before was undoubtedly how to identify and capture things in the same way as scavengers. After Yu Huan listened carefully, his final conclusion was: it was very troublesome!

Of course, that's for other people. As for Yu Huan...

“It seems quite simple!”

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be stuck here, such as finding the sand beast or determining whether there are gems in the sand beast's body, or how to subdue the sand beast, etc., a lot of troubles. However, for Yu Huan, these are obviously not a big problem. After all, Yu Huan said... he is a person with cheats!

"Tianling, can you find it?"

Tian Ling had been listening quietly beside Yu Huan from beginning to end. Upon hearing this, he nodded confidently:

"Of course Master, no problem!"

Because of the existence of the system, Tianling's presence has always been very low. After all, whether in terms of intelligence level or the ability to help Yuhuan, Tianling is inferior to the system. But this does not mean that Tianling has no use. Therefore, after hearing Yuhuan's question, Tianling immediately put in 200% effort, ready to eat his master while the system is away... No, he is going to assist his master well and prove his own value!

"Biological radar scanning has been activated, and a three-kilometer radius of biological activity has been detected... Confirming the target, and starting to draw an electronic map..."

"very good!"

He nodded with satisfaction. With Tianling's system exploration, finding the sand beast was obviously not a difficult task. Without thinking, Yu Huan decisively pushed open the window in front of him, jumped out of it, and landed steadily on the sand with a slight burn.

"Ouch~ It's so hot!"

The handsome landing did not last for a second. Immediately afterwards, because of the burning sensation of the yellow sand rising suddenly under his feet, Yu Huan, who was only wearing a pair of ordinary cloth shoes, jumped up holding his feet. It was not until he jumped several times that he slowly adapted to the sudden high temperature.

"Master, can't you just go through the door?"

If we take it slow, it won't be like this, Tian Ling asked immediately. However, despite being slightly troubled, Yu Huan said decisively and confidently:

"No way, walking through the door isn't cool at all!"

"..."

Well, you can’t argue with a child with Chuunibyou, so Tianling decisively ignored this question and immediately pointed in a direction and said:

"Master, there are biological reactions three hundred meters ahead, number... three!"

"Very good, let's go!"

After hearing Tian Ling's report, Yu Huan immediately waved her hand and walked towards the direction Tian Ling pointed without saying a word, but...

"Woo~~ It's still so hot!"

Wearing only a pair of sneakers, it was obviously impossible for him to resist the high temperature of the desert sand. Although Yu Huan was not injured with his physical condition, it was obvious that the basic body reaction was very real.

"So... Master, why don't you transform?"

Armor is heat-insulating!

“…Oh yeah, I forgot!”

"..."

……

"Huff~Huff~Huff~"

The rolling sandstorms covered the sky and the sun, sweeping across the endless desert. The khaki color seemed to cover everything and became the only monotonous existence in the whole world. Small hills rose up in the sand under the strong wind. With the occasional strong wind, layers of fine sand were slowly lifted up like a layer of khaki gauze and flew into the distance.

“Woo~ woo~~~”

In a certain ochre-colored hill, without any warning, a dull cry suddenly came from under a small mound. It seemed to be the cry of some kind of fatigue, but for some reason, it was filled with thick wailing and shrillness, and also mixed with a hint of inexplicable...enjoyment?

"Bang~~~"

The ochre-colored hills suddenly exploded, and streaks of yellow sand were thrown in all directions like waves. Then, in the center of the explosion, a huge figure suddenly flew up from it, and then fell heavily on the sand... on its back!

It was a huge beast with the same khaki color as the yellow sand. It had a lizard-like shape but with thick armor that seemed to be inlaid with rocks. From its long tail to its big head, it was a huge beast filled with thick and hard colors. It was more than ten meters long and more than two meters tall.

However, these were not the main points at this moment. The main point was that when this behemoth suddenly emerged from the sand, its body was not standing, but lying on its back like an upside-down turtle. Its thick armor pressed tightly against the yellow sand, but its softest lower body was exposed to the scorching sun. At this moment, a figure in armor also stood on top of that soft body. Although it looked majestic, the next second it suddenly uttered a sentence full of vulgarity:

"Really? That's why we're all girls, so what's wrong with being aggressive?!"

88. Not even one?!

After completing the attack countless times, and confirming that the opponent did not have the gem he needed, Yu Huan immediately gave up on the opponent. Then, under the other party's gaze as if he was looking at a scumbag who had been abandoned after having fun with him (?), he rubbed his hands and set his sights on the next sand beast.

"Tianling, how much is left?"

Walking in the endless yellow sand, looking at the dense blue light spots on the red light curtain in front of him, Yu Huan asked this.

"One thousand three hundred and sixty-two targets left, Master!"

A red light flashed, and the little elf flew out from the light curtain and floated onto Yu Huan's shoulder. Facing Yu Huan's question, it answered and started:

"Master, come on! We just need to… no, observe the hearts of over a thousand sand beasts to see if there are gems, and we'll be able to complete the mission!"

"Did you mean to tease me just now?"

Decisively ignoring Tianling's cute expression of "hehe", Yu Huan under the mask immediately rolled his eyes, and then lightly drew a line next to the red light curtain in front of him. The next second, a light blue light curtain appeared side by side with it. However, unlike the map on Tianling's light curtain, the light blue light curtain only had flashing garbled characters.

"The upgrade isn't complete yet? This upgrade is taking a long time!"

It's hard to describe what the feeling is. Although the system rarely disturbs Yuhuan when there is nothing to do on weekdays, and basically rarely shows up unless there is a task, at least Yuhuan can still feel its presence. However, once it enters the upgraded state, the system will be completely isolated from Yuhuan. How can I describe this feeling... It's like the Internet is disconnected, making Yuhuan feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

I miss my own system a bit!

"Hmph~~"

Almost at the moment when this thought came into Yuhuan's mind, a rather deliberate snort came from his shoulder. Yuhuan glanced sideways and saw his own elf turning his head with his arms folded across his chest, with an expression that said "I'm angry."

"It's me who's assisting the Master's system, but the Master is always thinking about another woman (system). How abominable!"

A crisp and clear complaining voice. Although she knew the relationship between Yu Huan and the system, it was obvious that as a latecomer to the system, she would also be jealous!

"Uh……"

Yu Huan, who inexplicably felt like a bit of a scumbag, suddenly didn't know what to say after hearing Tian Ling's words... How should he handle this situation? Yuan Yuan hadn't taught him anything!

Unsure how to respond, Yu Huan could only maintain his usual innocent expression. How could Tian Ling, who was only slightly annoyed by this, resist? He watched Yu Huan turn his head in bewilderment, a bit bewildered, and then took the initiative to lean towards his cheek, nuzzling it affectionately.

"Forehead……"

The sudden reaction left Yu Huan confused again... Wasn't he still angry just now? How did he suddenly feel better?

“…Stupid Master!”

Faced with Yu Huan's wooden reaction, Tian Ling just whispered these four words without explaining anything further.

The goal of hunting (attacking) sand beasts to find gems has not been achieved. With Tianling's biological radar for analysis, it is not difficult to screen out the sand beasts that have not been encountered by him. Although there are a little more in number, it is obviously not a big deal for Yuhuan, who is active by nature. Therefore, in the originally peaceful desert hills, almost everywhere you can see the overturned sand pits and the sand beasts that are turned upside down next to the sand pits, revealing their soft bellies and expressions of despair.

"One thousand nine hundred and thirty-one!"

"One thousand nine hundred and thirty-two!"

"One thousand nine hundred and thirty-three... Is my luck that bad?"
