The correct way to open the magical girl

"That's right! The original religion of the Kingdom of Mengsen is relatively primitive. When offering sacrifices to the sun god, the clergy must appear naked, paint their bodies, and then smear a special ointment, dance and sing, praying for good weather, many children and good fortune." Tang Xi explained.

"So awesome? Then the prayer types there don't wear clothes either? If I remember correctly, the prayer types cannot be dispelled during the whole day, right? How do they live their daily lives then?" Li Xuan asked.

"If you want to know the details, please ask my eldest daughter, Miss Bingrui—" Tang Xi said, pushing Bingrui forward.

"Who are you, my eldest son? Do you have any shame?" Bingrui waved her hand, froze Tang Xi into an ice sculpture with an extreme freeze, then kicked him down and walked in front of Li Xuan.

"What this bastard said is mostly true, but not to that extent. After all, it's modern society, and prayer-type people will wear clothes, but they still need to be naked when using their abilities. But there's no need to worry about being seen, because they will receive a special blessing. If they are naked in public, key parts of their bodies will automatically be attached to dazzling holy light, which will cover their shame while making it difficult for the enemy to look directly at them." Bingrui explained.

"There is actually such a strange blessing... Forget it, let's not talk about this for now - since you have been there, tell me about the situation there! Are there any enemies that we need to pay attention to?" Li Xuan said.

"The overall strength of the magical girls there is relatively low. I went there to contain a talisman that would automatically launch a mental attack. My strength was only B-level, but I was already considered a top-tier warrior in the local area. The place is large, but the population is sparse. Many cities don't even have an A-level magical girl. It is said that there is only one S-level in the entire country - of course, that was a few years ago." Bingrui replied.

"Let me add one thing - this area is the church's sphere of influence. The top group has been transferred to the Star Kingdom to deal with the hunters. The remaining ones in the country are basically only enough to suppress the local monsters." Filia added.

"In this case, we basically don't have to consider other forces - Tang Xi, how many people do you estimate will come to Zhenshou Temple this time?" Li Xuan asked.

"It won't be less than last time - that is, at least four S-level. Considering the last defeat, they will definitely make more preparations. It is very likely that they will send out six S-level, or even more." Tang Xi said.

"There are too many. It will be easy to have indigestion if we deal with so many S-level at once. It's better to put out another bait to disperse the opponent's forces." Qi Mo said worriedly.

"By the way! Don't we still have Professor Leila on our hands? Given the friendship between Zhenshou Temple and Professor Leila, they should come to rescue us." Bingrui suggested.

"Not really. Although Leila has a close relationship with Zhenshouguan, if they are already on the mission of retrieving Alice, it is impossible for them to split up their forces to rescue Leila. Splitting up the forces is a taboo, they won't be that stupid. Unless they recall the other Alice, they will never easily change their plans midway." Tang Xi shook his head.

"The other Alice cannot be recalled, otherwise Li Sijie will be exposed." Li Xuan shook his head.

"Actually... we don't have to provoke Zhenshou Temple. It's not that important whether I remember what happened in the past or not. I don't want to make things difficult for everyone." Liaoying saw that the plan was full of difficulties, so she spoke in a low voice.

"No, this must be done. Zhenshou Temple is a huge mountain standing in front of me, and I will have to clash with them sooner or later. Alice's influence is too great, and we are not completely sure of using her as bait. Let's use Professor Leila as bait to catch the big fish of Zhenshou Temple!" Li Xuan made the decision.

Chapter 615 Panlong Halberd

"The teacher and Leila have a good personal relationship. It's very likely that she will come to rescue him." Tang Xi muttered.

"We will discuss the details of the plan slowly. But after we complete this mission, we will become enemies with Zhenshou Temple. We will inevitably have a head-on clash, so we all need to improve our strength." Li Xuan said.

"All followers will be liberated after drinking the spring water, and can compete with S-level in a short period of time. Isn't that enough?" Xu Rou interrupted.

"Not enough, you are not yet proficient in using this power. Starting today, all members will undergo special training! Prepare for the future war!" Li Xuan announced.

The preparations for this time lasted for a full month. Li Xuan applied strengthening runes to all the magical girls who had never had runes on them, and he had an unknown amount of corrupted blood in reserve. The training of the maids was also in full swing.

Li Xuan expanded the arena to a hundred times its original size and had the maids take turns training and fighting there.

During training, Li Xuan was pleasantly surprised to discover that Cesia's combat prowess was quite impressive. Although she lacked energy, her physical abilities alone were enough to rival an S-rank. Furthermore, once she touched him, her powerful body transformation abilities would quickly determine the outcome.

"A glass of pure milk every day is not wasted!" Li Xuan said excitedly.

News soon came from Li Sijie's side - thanks to her secret promotion, the battle between the church and the hunters was still at a stalemate, and the hunters would not have time to take care of things here.

Li Xuan checked his memo: everything was ready, but there was still no progress on the new weapon that Tang Xi promised him would be completed in a week.

Because they had been hiding in the Lost Land, Li Xuan had to go there in person to ask.

"Don't mention it. Miss Tang's design addiction has come back. She keeps modifying the blueprints every few days. Sometimes she wants to melt in old weapons, and sometimes she wants to add the snake skin shed by Cesia as material. When it's almost done, she wants to add Professor Leila's new material based on black crystal research..." Wang Li complained.

"Tang Xi——" Li Xuan said in a long tone.

"Please forgive me, Master. This is also to improve the performance of the weapon..." Tang Xi quickly covered his butt and begged for mercy.

"Now that things have come to this, I don't want to say anything more - so what's the current progress?" Li Xuan asked.

"The design has been finalized. The problem now is... there are too many materials added, and they can't be harmonized with each other. As a result, it's difficult to form the weapon..." Wang Li explained.

"It's too late to revise the manuscript now. If all else fails, why not just go back to the first version?" Tang Xi discussed.

"I'll hit you to death with a hammer!" Wang Li glared at Tang Xi, who immediately dared not speak again - after all, she was the one who suffered every time the manuscript was revised.

"The materials cannot be blended? Wait, I seem to have thought of something." Li Xuan pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered the dew that Lu Che gave him, and hurriedly took it out from the void.

"Adding some of this in, it might be useful." Li Xuan said.

"This is... I feel like there isn't much energy in it, but it has a very gentle feeling - my blacksmith's intuition tells me that this is a very rare forging material!" Wang Li excitedly took the blade and hurried to work.

Seven days later, Li Xuan's new weapon was released.

This time, the weapon still looked like a halberd, but with a red dragon coiled around its jet-black body, it looked much cooler. This time, Tang Xi had simplified the design considerably, integrating the barrier-breaking spear form into the tip of the halberd. This way, the five weapons of the God of War were reduced to just two.

"That's right, this way we can get rid of the name of 'Halberd Spear'. Since there is a red dragon coiled on it, we might as well call it the Coiled Dragon Halberd. By the way, it should be able to withstand Shayue's attack this time!" Li Xuan weighed the halberd. Although it was heavier than before, it was obviously stronger.

"It can withstand it! This time's design combines the optimized black crystal extract with Cesia's shed skin, and adopts the puppet's organic technology. Not only is the toughness greatly improved compared to before, but it also has self-repair capabilities - you can think of this weapon as alive, and you can even use healing magic on it!" Tang Xi said proudly.

"What she said is basically true - combining organic matter and inorganic matter together, such a fantastic idea, it's amazing that she could come up with it. If it weren't for that magical dew, this design would have been empty talk from the beginning." Wang Li complained, staring at the heavy dark circles under his eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work. I will definitely use this weapon to win the victory, so that your people will no longer have to hide in the Lost Land." Li Xuan said while stroking her fox ears that had drooped due to fatigue.

"Yes! I believe that benefactor can give our monsters a suitable home!" Wang Li nodded firmly.

"By the way, master, are you ready for the bait plan?" Tang Xi asked.

"Of course, this matter will be left to you. This is the script. If you have any questions, you can ask me now." Li Xuan said, sending the plan he had prepared to Tang Xi.

"Eh? I'm just asking this..."

"Whether you ask or not, you are the one to carry out the task. After all, the person who comes this time is most likely your teacher. The battle between master and disciple is very interesting." Li Xuan said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that I still have to go to the front line. I have clearly prepared to live a life of idleness and waiting for death in the research institute until retirement..." Tang Xi had a sad face and reluctantly opened the plan to start studying.

Li Xuan explained the details of the plan to Tang Xi in detail, and then he couldn't contain his excitement and rushed to the arena with his cool new weapons.

At the same time, Tang Xi had already deduced the plan in his mind, and then went to the VIP room of the institute to find Leila.

"Professor, I need to go on a business trip recently to the Kingdom of Mengsen to investigate the monsters in the rainforest. It may take a long time, about one or two months. Do you want to go with me so that I can ask for advice?" Tang Xi asked respectfully.

"Go out? Of course!" Leila agreed without hesitation. Although she lived a life of luxury in this research institute, the time without seeing the sun was not easy. No matter which country it was, it was always good to be able to go out and get some fresh air. Moreover, if she went out, there might be a chance to escape.

"Please forgive my disrespect, but I need to put on extra restraint rings for you - this is the request of the head maid." Tang Xi said, taking out four magic-sealing rings and said to Leila.

"I know, you are afraid that I will run away." Leila had expected this a long time ago. If she did not agree to this condition, Tang Xi would not easily agree to let her go out.

Chapter 616 Why is the monster's head pointed?

So she obediently let Tang Xi put rings on her wrists and ankles, and even added an iron chain behind the collar. Although the look was a bit humiliating, Leila was still very happy to think that she could finally see the long-lost sun.

The next day, Tang Xi brought Leila to the depths of the rainforest, with only Bingrui and Tanxiang accompanying them.

Tang Xi opened the portal and moved a large amount of supplies including tents and food. The four of them set up camp on the spot and began their "research" work.

Of course, research was just an excuse. Tang Xi's real purpose was to inadvertently leak the news that Leila was in the Kingdom of Mengsen.

Of course, adhering to the principle of doing a complete show, Tang Xi still seriously sent Bingrui and Tanxiang to the depths of the rainforest to capture some local monsters, pretending to study them, and occasionally asked Leila for some knowledge in a serious manner. In fact, he spent most of his time hiding in another tent playing games with Tanxiang.

Starting from the third day, Tang Xi began to feed the captured monsters with corrupted blood.

After drinking it, these monsters quickly became controlled by Li Xuan. Tang Xi was Li Xuan's subordinate, so with Li Xuan's tacit consent, he also had the right to control them.

"Guys! Stand up!" Tang Xi sat on a tall tree stump and ordered the more than one hundred captured monsters to make a gesture of worship towards him, having a lot of fun.

"Senior Sister, let's do something serious." Bing Rui couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she turned the gun and gave Tang Xi a Thousand Year Kill.

"It hurts so much... Even if you have a crush on me, you can't do it this way, right?" Tang Xi said in pain, holding the drum.

"I have a crush on your sister!" Bing Rui was so angry that she dropped the gun and stabbed at him - if this poke was successful, Tang Xi would definitely turn into a roasted skewer.

Seeing this, Tang Xi quickly dodged and took out a large amount of joy wine that he had prepared in advance to feed the monsters.

The side effects of the wine of joy that Li Xuan had previously fed to the maids were almost zero, and the extent of the improvement was relatively limited.

But this time, what Li Xuan gave Tang Xi was a special medicinal wine mixed with Cesia's flesh and blood, which could greatly improve his strength in all aspects in a short period of time - of course, the side effects would also be great. Tang Xi still needed to experiment on these monsters to find out what the specific side effects were.

"Drug No. 3, greatly increases monster strength and increases muscle mass by approximately 40%. Side effects: The deltoid muscles in the arms transform into quadriceps muscles, and the internal organs experience mild failure."

"Drug No. 6 significantly increases the monster's total fel energy. Side effect: The monster's judgment ability is significantly reduced. When fed rice, the monster discarded the prepared rice balls and chose to eat the raw rice directly."

"Potion No. 7 causes the monster to enter an intermittent frenzy state, significantly increasing its aggression and strength, and slightly increasing its speed. Side effect: The monster's behavior becomes illogical and highly uncontrollable, and it may suddenly attack its companions or even its master."

"Potion No. 9: Hardens the monster's skin, significantly increasing its resistance to physical attacks. Side effect: The monster's head becomes sharp, squeezing its brain and significantly reducing its intelligence..."

"Medicine No. 13, monsters die after taking it, its effects and side effects are unknown..."

Although she appeared to be very dissatisfied with Tang Xi, Bing Rui still faithfully fulfilled her duties as an assistant and recorded the results of the experiment in detail.

"There's something wrong with the side effects of drug No. 9! Although the pointed head leads to a decrease in intelligence, the pointed head itself also provides monsters with an additional means of attack. It should be very effective when facing barrier-type magic!" Tang Xi said, pointing to a line in the record.

"Junior Sister, do you think a monster with reduced intelligence can still be smart enough to use the sharp horns on its head to attack?" Bing Rui said disdainfully.

"That's true..."

"What should we do next? Let these monsters attack the city?" Bing Rui asked in a low voice.

"No, since we've already started the experiment, let's just do more. Listen to me, increase the dosage, and test the effects of cross-drug use."

"But, I'm afraid the monster won't be able to withstand this."

"It's just an experimental monster anyway. If you can't handle it, then don't. Just go catch more." Tang Xi said nonchalantly.

So under Tang Xi's operation, the amount and types of medicine for the monsters were greatly increased. After two days, most of the original one hundred monsters were dead.

Fortunately, Bingrui and Tanxiang captured more monsters, which allowed Tang Xi to continue his experiment.

By the time Tang Xi figured out the maximum dosage and optimal combination of drugs, the monsters he had captured had already been replaced three times. Fortunately, this experiment was a great success, with a mortality rate of only 55%, comparable to that of a well-trained doctor.

"Junior Sister! Did you notice? This monster has survived three rounds of medicinal wine tests. There are a total of nine kinds of joyful wines tested on it, but it actually endured it and did not die suddenly!" Bingrui reported excitedly.

"Oh? Could it be that it can ignore the side effects of medicinal wine? This is a great discovery and worth studying carefully!" Tang Xi was overjoyed after hearing this and hurriedly asked Bing Rui to bring the monster over.

The monster that resisted nine kinds of medicinal liquor was a forest wild boar. Seeing its intelligent eyes and pointed head, Tang Xi had an ominous premonition.

After some inspections and tests, Tang Xi realized that he had thought too much - the wild boar was indeed incredibly resistant to drugs. The side effects of the nine kinds of medicinal wine were all reflected in him to some extent, but he was still full of energy.

But the problem is that although the wild boar overcame the side effects of the medicinal wine, its positive effects were also overcome by it.

The nine kinds of medicinal wine should have created a powerful individual comparable to A-level, but the wild boar's combat power is only at the bottom of B-level - considering various side effects, in actual combat, even a C-level magical girl would probably be able to defeat it.

"Forget it, forget it. I shouldn't have counted on mass-producing super soldiers by taking drugs. Let's start the next stage of the plan!" Tang Xi said, waving his hand.

The rainforest Tang Xi had chosen wasn't too far from the nearest city, Buenos Aires. Leaving Tan Xiang behind to guard the house, they drove the experimental monsters to the outskirts of the city, releasing them in batches and quietly observing and recording their combat data.

Buenos Aires is one of the few big cities in the Kingdom of Dream Forest, and the church has strict defenses there. Soon, a magical girl took action and defeated these violent monsters.

The two men released about seventy or eighty monsters in this batch. Such a large number of violent monsters naturally attracted the attention of the church. The local archbishop quickly assembled an elite team and followed the traces of evil energy into the rainforest to investigate.

Tang Xi was naturally prepared for this. As soon as he returned, he ordered the monsters to move, leaving the investigation team empty-handed.

However, although the camp was moved, the traces of the use of medicinal wine and the monster's gray throat could not be completely erased. The Archbishop of Buenos Aires quickly deduced that these violent monsters were deliberately released by someone, which meant that the enemy behind the scenes was a powerful monster with considerable intelligence.

So the archbishop immediately requested support and sent several investigation teams from several surrounding cities to search the rainforest. Tang Xi's moving frequency became more and more frequent.

Chapter 617 Rescue Professor Leila

As the frequency of moving increased, Leila's mind became more active.

Tang Xi did not keep a strict watch on her, and she could move around the camp freely. Listening to the conversation between Tang Xi and Bing Rui, she naturally knew that they were conducting drug experiments on monsters.

With just a little speculation, Leila could understand that the reason for the frequent moves must be that the local magical girl was tracking them, and this might be her only chance to escape in this life!

However, she also knew very well that the magical girls from the Dream Forest Country would not be able to rescue her. After all, the three people in the camp seemed to be laughing and joking every day, but in fact they all had combat power close to S-level.

In the Dream Forest Country, it was difficult to find an S-rank leader, and the investigation team was at most an A-rank world leader. If they found the camp, it would be dangerous. Moreover, if they alerted the enemy, they would probably never get out again.

After realizing this, Leila began to deliberately collect intelligence, and while Tang Xi and Bing Rui were out collecting data, she made invisible ink, secretly wrote the information on a note and stuffed it into a tree trunk, hoping that the investigation team that found this place would notice it.

Her movements were very covert, but she never expected that Li Xuan, who was sitting behind the scenes, had already seen this scene through the hunting radar.

"Finally, a message was left!" Li Xuan slapped his thigh excitedly - he was looking forward to Leila leaving information so that the message could be sent out!

So he quickly ordered Tang Xi to sprinkle some medicinal wine near the tree trunk during the next evacuation, for fear that the investigation team would miss this clue.

As expected, the investigation team lived up to Li Xuan's expectations. While investigating the tree trunk, they found a note. As soon as the note came into contact with their magic, the words immediately appeared. The leader picked it up and read it, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Don't investigate! Don't investigate!! Don't investigate!!!"

"I'm Leila Pritz Hayek. A biology professor in the Land of Black Gold, and also a magical girl captured by a monster."

"Among the monsters you're currently tracking, there are three fallen magical girls. Their individual strength is close to S-rank. You are absolutely no match for them!"

"They are conducting dangerous experiments that can make weak monsters stronger."

"If possible, please try to contact Mr. Feibai of the Zhenshou Temple. She is the only one who has the ability and willingness to rescue me and destroy the monster's plot!"

Although the captain was in the distant country of Dream Forest and had never heard of who Leila was, she could still understand the value of S-level.

If I were unlucky enough to track down the real culprit, I would probably be killed immediately to silence him.

The team leader did not dare to delay and hurriedly notified the other teams to stop searching, immediately withdraw from the forest, and hand the note to the Archbishop of Buenos Aires.

The Archbishop was also troubled by this - she knew very well that the magical girls who could still maintain their rationality after falling into the devil were most likely the ones who participated in the attack on the headquarters.
