The correct way to open the magical girl

Page 193

Despite this, Li Xuan wasn't too worried. After all, the hunting mark had already been placed, and Li Xuan could definitely find another opportunity to strike. Liaoying was collecting frost crystals and definitely wouldn't leave right away.

Li Xuan returned to bed, put the classics he couldn't understand back on the bookshelf, and then looked towards Maya through the hunting radar.

Although it was already dark, it was only afternoon, far from bedtime. Maya seemed to have taken a nap, and was contacting someone on her phone from under the covers.

"Liaoying is still collecting frost crystals. She has made up her mind and refuses to stop no matter what I say. If this continues, she will awaken 'Frost Father' sooner or later." Maye said worriedly.

The voice on the other end of the phone was very low, and even if Li Xuan moved closer, he couldn't hear anything clearly. He could only guess the other party's identity from Maye's words.

"It's useless. Even if we send another S-class, it's impossible to stop her. Liaoying is too fast and can easily escape our perception range, unless Cardinal Flora goes there in person. But that lord has to protect the headquarters now and it's impossible for him to come here." Maye shook his head.

The person on the other end of the phone said a lot, seemingly giving Maya some advice.

"Huh? This is a good idea! If the frost crystal is not big enough, Frost Father cannot be awakened. I just compete with her for the frost crystal, and avoid the consequences of a direct fight. ...Alas, but this means that I have to execute those innocent spirits with my own hands. They have not committed any crimes!" Maye was excited at first, but soon became depressed.

It seems that the person on the other end of the phone is suggesting that Maye compete with Liaoying for that ice crystal, and from what they said, this crystal seems to be able to awaken a being called "Frost Father", so what exactly is it?

Just as Li Xuan was thinking, Maye had already ended the call. She suddenly jumped out of bed, quickly took off her pajamas, found a cosplay costume from under the bed, put it on, and then excitedly danced with a staff in hand, striking a cool pose.

Chapter 526 The Little Girl Picking Up Bottles

"Explode! Reality! Shatter! Spirit! Banish this world! Obeying the blood covenant, I summon you here! All the foolish things that stand in our way! I will destroy them all with my power and yours! I hereby summon—the Dark Flame Dragon!"

Li Xuan saw her serious demeanor and almost thought she was actually casting a spell to summon something. However, Maya hadn't even transformed yet, so naturally, she wasn't qualified to use magic. This behavior was just pure chuunibaku.

"Oh, I really want to say such cool lines during the battle, but if I do that, I will be regarded as an immature brat..." After Maye posed in a cool manner, he suddenly felt lost. He slowly took off his clothes, folded them and put them in the suitcase.

Li Xuan watched Maya's performance with great interest. Maya was probably a high school student, almost reaching the stage of growing out of childishness. Li Xuan knew very well that children at this stage would be eager to break away from their past childishness, but at the same time they could not escape the shadow of the past.

Every time I look back, I feel that I was childish and cowardly a while ago. Whenever I read some books, watched some movies or cartoons and came into contact with some new concepts, I would feel that I had reached a new realm of thought and was no longer the same person as yesterday.

After feeling lost for a while, Maye seemed a little hungry, so she called the hotel waiter and asked for dinner.

Maye stayed at one of the city's few luxury hotels, so the food was naturally sumptuous, completely different from the fast food Li Xuan ate. They had not only smoked meat, a specialty of the Snow Country, but also sweet grilled fish smeared with honey.

Although it is a season when vegetables are scarce, the hotel still serves a salad full of fresh vegetables, and even contains precious ingredients such as veal tongue and caviar.

The meal was accompanied by a glass of sparkling wine, a dish of bright red borscht and some fresh fruits, which was a luxury for a city with a temperature of minus 40 degrees Celsius.

"Damn, it tastes so good! I can't even eat such fresh fruits. The church is really rich!" Li Xuan said with some jealousy.

Maya's eyes lit up at the sight of such a sumptuous meal, but her eating manners were obviously much more elegant. After finishing her meal leisurely, Maya called the waiter to clear the plates, and then started exercising on the treadmill in the room.

Although they are both senior members of the organization, the treatment enjoyed by Maya and Ryoying is worlds apart. However, if not for this, he would not have been able to trick an S-class magical girl over with just a fast food meal.

"Kuhahaha! After absorbing these nutrients, I have completed another evolution!" Maye jogged for a while, and couldn't help but act like a middle school student again. He began to run backwards with great confidence, but he accidentally fell down after running a few steps.

Li Xuan couldn't help laughing when he saw her funny look. At present, Maye seemed to be living alone, and apart from monitoring Liaoying, she seemed to have no other tasks.

So Li Xuan turned his attention to Liaoying again: he found Liaoying was trying hard to rummage through the trash can while wearing her coat.

"She just had a double burger and a serving of French fries, and she's hungry again so soon? A magical girl shouldn't get hungry so easily, right?" Li Xuan looked at Liaoying in confusion, considering whether to buy some more food for her.

However, he soon discovered that Liaoying was not looking for food, but took out an empty drink bottle from the trash can.

She put the bottle in a brown trash bag and went to the next trash can to look for more empty bottles.

Because of her petite stature, she had to stand on tiptoe every time she looked for something, and it was very difficult for her to find it.

Perhaps she was preparing for her next meal? After all, given her personality, she probably couldn't work a regular job. Besides, she couldn't read, so there weren't many jobs she could do.

Fortunately, there are no vagrants in Yakutsk in winter - homeless people simply cannot survive the winter, so there is no need to worry about anyone bothering her.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan opened the interface of the Corrupted Blood and tried to create a template imitating the image of the "spiritual creature".

He soon discovered that this was extremely difficult. Although the Corrupted Blood could create monsters at will, there was still a huge difference between spiritual creatures and traditional monsters. In terms of appearance, spiritual creatures were more beautiful, not as hideous and abominable as monsters, and they usually showed a certain degree of intelligence.

But the most important thing is the difference in energy and temperament within its body. Li Xuan spent a lot of time, but he could only create a monster template that was only superficial.

Summoning a monster like this would definitely arouse suspicion. Even if Ryouying could be kept in the dark, Maya, who was always with her, would definitely become suspicious.

After all, this guy had fought with me once and should be very familiar with my evil power.

In the following days, Liaoying did not take any more action against the spiritual objects. She diligently picked up bottles, and when she had accumulated a certain amount, she would go to the scrap collection station to exchange them for money.

Before the template of the spirit creature was completed, Li Xuan had no choice but to perfect the template while observing the movements of the two magical girls.

Maye still fulfilled her duties and tried to follow Liaoying, but Liaoying seemed reluctant to know that Maye had discovered her picking up bottles. Once she sensed her breath, she would immediately disappear at an astonishing speed, shake off Maye and continue to rummage through the trash can.

Faced with Ryoying's strange behavior, Maye had no choice but to report to the Cardinals:

"The target has temporarily stopped killing spiritual creatures. I don't know what she's doing. Every time she sees me, she immediately hides away. I find it a bit strange - is it still impossible to send more people? Forget it, I understand the difficulties of the headquarters. It doesn't matter to me for the time being. I have dealt with Liaoying before, and she has no killing intentions towards me. Even if a fight really comes, I have the means to protect myself."

"Yeah, anyway, it's a good thing that she stopped killing spiritual creatures... I hope so, but I still have a bad feeling in my heart."

This conversation was naturally monitored by Li Xuan, but unfortunately Maye's phone seemed to be protected by some kind of magic, so he couldn't hear the voice on the other end of the phone.

The only information we can know is that she seems to be very confident in her own strength. Even when facing a fierce god like Liaoying, she is confident that she can fulfill her surveillance duties.

By the fifth day of surveillance, Li Xuan was able to create a monster that was 70% similar to the spirit beast. In order to compare the two, Li Xuan specially captured a spirit beast and took it to the illusory evil land to compare it with the one he created.

At the same time, Liaoying's bottle-selling business was in full swing. She made full use of the magical girl's advantage of not being afraid of the cold and monopolized the trash cans in various areas. The money she saved from buying bottles turned out to be a considerable sum - of course, for her personally.

Chapter 527 In the Human World

Li Xuan originally thought that she wanted to use the money to have another hamburger fast food meal, but strangely, she never used the money to buy a meal, but relied on the magical girl's physique that did not require food to sustain herself.

So why does she work so hard to pick up bottles to make money?

On the morning of the sixth day, Li Xuan had just gotten up when he felt a unique breath belonging to a spiritual creature - and this time it was quite close to his residence.

Moreover, this time, the aura of the spirit creature seemed even more manic. Compared to the one seen at the beginning, it felt very close to a real monster.

The appearance of the spirit creature caused a widespread commotion, because this time it did not provoke the magical girl who was hunting it, but directly crashed into the buildings on the street!

Not far from the hotel where Li Xuan was staying, there was a five-story building. The monster rammed into it, causing half of the building to collapse.

Li Xuan frowned: If the spiritual creature continues to cause damage like this, he will have to go out and hide - if it bumps into him, he will be forced to reveal his identity.

However, at this moment, the hunting radar indicated that a magical girl was rushing towards him at an astonishing speed.

"Could it be Liaoying? Isn't she obsessed with picking up bottles and no longer bothers spiritual objects?" Li Xuan temporarily stopped thinking about running away and turned on the hunting radar to watch the picture.

The person who came was indeed Shishiye Liaoying. She was as fast as lightning. Before Li Xuan could see her fighting clearly, the spirit creature had already fallen.

This time, Liaoying's expression was fierce and a little scary. She stared with her eyes wide open and kept breathing out white frost from her mouth. She seemed to have rushed here with great effort, and she was even holding a garbage bag full of bottles in her hand.

And this time, she didn't give the spirit creature a chance to catch its breath, but killed it instantly with a clean and decisive blow.

Could it be that she realized that the spiritual creature was too close to her residence, so she hurried over to protect it?

"What? It turns out that you are still a tsundere after all. You don't even say thank you on the surface, but you actually care about my safety very much in your heart." Li Xuan said with a smile.

Maya also teleported over belatedly.

"Liaoying! Wait... Oh my God! You really are... too fast. I couldn't catch up with you even after teleporting over..." Maye saw that Liaoying had already taken the frost crystal, and could only sigh helplessly.

"Aren't you going to lecture me?" Liaoying asked, raising her head.

"At least for today, I haven't had breakfast yet. I'm a little tired from staying up late watching you yesterday - you'd better go and have a rest too. You haven't had much rest recently, and I'm also forced to work overtime." Maye said tiredly, casting a teleportation magic to prepare to leave.

"Wait a moment." Liaoying said softly.

"Huh? You actually called me, that's really rare." Maye turned around in surprise and canceled the teleportation magic that was half prepared.

"Maye, can you read?" Liaoying asked.

"I can see a little, what's wrong?" Maye touched his head in confusion, as if he didn't understand why Liaoying suddenly asked this.

"Which book is good?" Liaoying asked with her head down, hooking her fingers together somewhat awkwardly.

"Well..." Maye hesitated. She didn't really see much, and didn't have anything to recommend right now. More importantly, Liaoying was the person she was monitoring, a high-ranking figure in the Hunter Organization. What was her purpose in suddenly asking this? Was it to lower her guard? Or was there some other implication?

Just when Maye was full of doubts, Liaoying suddenly spoke again: "I know... it's a bit inappropriate to ask you, a member of the enemy camp, about this kind of thing, but I really have no one else to talk to."

Zhenye felt a little sad when she heard these words - she knew Liaoying's life experience and actually felt sorry for her.

So she quickly replied, "No, I was just about to recommend something to you! There's a famous writer from the Land of Snow. I heard his trilogy is really good. What are they called... 'Childhood,' 'In the World,' and one called 'My... What's My...'? Oh, right! 'My Struggle!'"

"The name is too long, I can't remember it." Liaoying said with some distress.

"You want to buy it? Then I'll accompany you. I remember there is a bookstore nearby." Maye said with a smile.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to let her enemy accompany her to the bookstore, Liaoying actually agreed. Seeing this, Maye took her hand and led her to the front of the bookstore where there were few customers. He told the clerk the title of the book he had just recommended to Liaoying.

"What? What book do you want?" After hearing the title of the book Maye wanted, the clerk's face turned green.

"It's the famous trilogy; 'Childhood', 'In the World', and 'My Struggle'? I want the best versions of all of them. Is there any problem with that?" Maye said doubtfully.

"Oh, Davarishi, did you fail the college entrance exam?" the clerk said in shock.

"I'm still a middle school student and not old enough to take the college entrance exam." Maya explained.

Seeing that she truly didn't understand, the clerk breathed a sigh of relief and brought out a deluxe hardcover trilogy. "Little girl, the third book in the trilogy is called 'My University.' You'd better remember this carefully in the future, or it could easily lead to misunderstandings. It might even cause panic in the Platinum Kingdom."

Maye then realized that she had remembered the wrong title of the book and couldn't help feeling embarrassed, but Liaoying had no idea what was going on. She looked at the three shiny hardcover masterpieces with gold covers, her eyes lit up, and she opened her purse and took out all her money and piled it on the counter.

"I want to buy it." Liaoying said briefly.

Seeing Liaoying take out a handful of change, the clerk frowned slightly, but still counted it diligently. After spending a long time, the clerk said to Liaoying with some embarrassment: "Sorry, my dear girl, you don't have enough money - to be more precise, it's still a lot short."

"How can it not be enough? These are all I have! If it's any later he will... No, it's okay, just count carefully again, it will definitely be enough!" Liaoying said nervously.

"Little girl, I counted them very carefully. This set of books is a collector's edition, so the price is also very high. Look at the gold-plated title, it is all plated with real gold. Sister recommends this paperback version to you. The content is the same when you read it, but there are fewer annotations and the packaging is not as exquisite." The clerk explained patiently.

"No need, let's just buy this one." Maye saw that Liaoying seemed to like this set of books very much, so she took out her bank card, swiped it to pay the difference, handed the book to Liaoying, and took her out of the store.

In the wind and snow, Liaoying, wearing an ill-fitting coat, looked quite funny holding a big and thick book in her small hands.
