Magical girl? There's no going back!

"I remember you said that she is your junior?" Li Xuan asked casually.

"That's right. She was only nine years old when I was active. But she already dared to join the others in the battle against monsters. She was a very brave girl. Now, more than ten years have passed, and she still maintains the purity and bravery of her childhood. Whenever there is an important matter, she will personally lead the team to fight. In addition, she is a peaceful person, so she is also very loved." Lilika replied.

"Regarding her whereabouts and escort..."

"She usually stays in the church to handle paperwork. Even when she travels, she is usually accompanied by two B-level magical girls. We have a good personal relationship, and she won't be suspicious even if I ask her out alone, but..." Lilika said embarrassedly.

"It's just that you two are very close friends, so you don't want to betray her, right?" Li Xuan said with a smile.

"Yes, she has always respected me as her senior. Even after she became a bishop, she often sought my advice when encountering problems. I would feel guilty about betraying her." Lilika sighed.

"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. You just need to go to the church to see her, and you don't have to get involved in anything else."

"Just seeing her once is all that's needed?"

"That's right, you can meet her and talk about anything you want. And I can assure you that I will never hurt her or force her to fall into evil." Li Xuan promised.

"Can I trust the monster's promise?"

“It’s a man’s promise.”

After listening to Li Xuan's words, Lilika thought for a long time and finally nodded: "Okay, since you promise not to hurt her, I will believe you this time. And I was going to visit her in the near future anyway, I just need to advance the trip."

After Lilika finished speaking, she made a few phone calls, postponed the meeting with the distributor, then said hello to Shen Liang and made an appointment for a visit tomorrow.

Chapter 228 Care from Seniors

When Lilica left, Li Xuan marked her with a hunting radar, and then took the black cat to the lake to fish, waiting for the fish to take the bait while waiting for Lilica and Shen Liang to meet.

Although Shen Liang was a beautiful lady with an elegant demeanor, Li Xuan was not ready to attack her immediately. Firstly, he had already promised Lilika, and secondly, he did not want to alarm the church.

This time, he planned to sneak in to get a glimpse of the true appearance of the terminal.

The church headquarters in Huahe City was not as luxurious as Li Xuan had imagined. Perhaps due to the mysterious principles, it was located in a very remote area.

A humble sign at the gate reads: "Huahe City Branch of the Catholic Baptist Church." But Li Xuan knows that the magical girls of the church essentially believe in the "world" that gives them power, and the reason they use the name of Catholicism is probably just a means of covering up.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet with me." When they arrived at the bishop's room, Lilika said politely.

"Senior Lilika, please don't say such things. Just call me Liangmei as before." Shen Liang hurriedly put down the work at hand and stood up to greet Lilika.

"It's fine in private, but you have to use your title when you're working. This is in line with the rules of the church." Lilika said with a smile.

"Thank you for your teachings, senior. Please take a seat. Would you like tea or coffee?" Shen Liang said politely.

"No need. I'm just here to report on my work and will leave after a few words." Lilika put her bag on the edge of the table, gathered her skirt and sat down elegantly.

"About Qinghe City?"

"Yes, this is a recent report on monster incidents in Qinghe City. Although it is not within my authority, as a magical girl, I cannot just stand by and watch monsters wreak havoc." Lilika said, taking out a report from her bag and handing it to Shen Liang.

"It's really hard for you to stay in Qinghe City alone. I asked my superiors for reinforcements several times, but their reply was very clear: put the issue of Qinghe City on hold for the time being. I really don't understand why the manpower is so tight. Although the relationship with the 'Hunters' has been a bit strained recently, the basic interests are always the same. The church will not declare an all-out war on them just because of some conflicts of ideas, right?" Shen Liang said distressedly.

"I don't think so. The top leaders have always focused on maintaining stability, and that has never changed over the years. Besides, this is not something our local church should consider."

"That's true. If we are just a bunch of small fry, we won't even be qualified to be cannon fodder if we really participate in that kind of high-intensity war. What I'm most worried about now is the case of the disappearance of the magical girls. Although the other party hasn't taken any action recently, I still feel nervous. Even such powerful people as the Witch Band have fallen. If the other party really wants to attack us, how can we be their opponent?" Shen Liang said with a frown.

"Regarding the S-level monster incident reported previously, the top management didn't give any further response?" Lilica asked tentatively.

"Much ado about nothing. When the archbishop was summoned by the College of Cardinals, I thought things were going to turn out well, but I didn't expect it to end up in nothing." Shen Liang spread his hands.

"No matter what, I still hope that you prioritize safety. The mastermind behind the disappearance of the magical girl is not someone we can handle at all. A futile sacrifice is meaningless. If you really encounter an enemy you can't deal with, try to evacuate everyone." Lilika warned.

"Thank you for your advice, senior. But as a bishop, I must live and die with the church. When the day of no return comes, I will risk my life and let the younger generations try to escape. Just like when you faced powerful monsters, you always let us go first." Shen Liang said sadly.

"No, you won't die." Lilika suddenly crossed the table and held Shen Liang's hand excitedly: "If the monster really hits the headquarters, you mention my name to him, just say... just say..."

When Lilika said this, she suddenly realized that she was too worried about the safety of her juniors and let the cat out of the bag, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Shen Liang was also stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Lilika to work for the monsters, so she smiled and said, "Senior Lilika is really amazing. Monsters will retreat when they hear your name, right?"

Lilika smiled stiffly: "Yeah, hahahaha, if you say my name, the monsters will be scared and run away, how dare they hurt you."

"Stop joking, Senior Lilika. I think you should just quit Qinghe City. It's too dangerous for you to be alone. Qinghe City was not originally under the jurisdiction of the church. Even if you leave it alone, no one will say anything." After Shen Liang smiled, he quickly changed to a serious expression and said to Lilika.

"Thanks, but my home is there and my daughter goes to school there, so I really can't leave. Women are like this. If they are single, they only have to think about themselves, but once they have children, there are a lot of things to consider." Lilika sighed.

The two of them sighed and lamented about this topic for a while, and then Lilika said goodbye to Shen Liang and took a bus back to Qinghe City.

"Let's go, it's our turn to take action next." Li Xuan said, opened the portal, and teleported to Huahe City with the black cat.

In the past, teleporting across two places would have drained all of his mental strength, but after multiple upgrades, teleporting over such a distance didn't even make him feel dizzy.

The landing point chosen by Li Xuan was an open space thirty kilometers away from the church. Even if there was a large-scale sensing barrier around the church, it was impossible to set it up thirty kilometers away. This was because this distance was far beyond the range of most magic.

However, unfortunately, it was within the ability of Mian Yin Alice.

"Mian Yin, it's your turn this time. No need for brainwashing, just peek at some information in your dream." Li Xuan said to Mian Yin in his consciousness.

"What information does cousin want?"

"The defense situation around the church, and most importantly: the detailed location of the metaphor machine. Of course, it would be better if we could directly obtain the information about the metaphor machine. The target to enter the dream is this clergyman dressed in long black straight hair." Li Xuan said, sharing the images captured by the hunting radar with Mian Yin in his consciousness.

"The distance is just enough, but Mian Yin doesn't understand much about human affairs, so big brother, please come with me."

Li Xuan thought that Mian Yin might really not understand all this, so he found a room nearby to stay in and asked the black cat to protect his safety. When night fell, he followed Mian Yin into Shen Liang's dream.

With the experience from last time, Li Xuan could already move around in his dreams. But this time he was trying to gather intelligence, so he didn't use his imagination to create a body for himself. Instead, he relied on his consciousness to follow the sleeping sound of the butterfly and observe Shen Liang's dream.

Perhaps because he had dealt with too much paperwork during the day, Shen Liang's dream was filled with mountains of documents. These documents formed a huge maze, and Shen Liang himself was struggling to walk through it with a bag of documents on his back.

“Even dreaming is so tiring. It’s really not easy to be a bishop.” Li Xuan sighed.

Chapter 229: The True Appearance of the Metaphorical Machine (Part )

"You won't get any information this way. This kind of boring dream will sometimes last until the end of the dream. Cousin, you should use mental interference to create some variables." Mian Yin suggested.

Li Xuan knew that she was the expert in dreams, so he followed her instructions and directly used mental interference to implant hints, guiding Shen Liang out of the maze step by step. At the same time, he asked Mian Yin to use the materials in her memory to create a model of the church, while he created monsters to attack the church.

"Quick! Everyone retreat to the third level of defense barrier! Take out the consecrated magic items to resist! Wait for reinforcements to arrive!" Shen Liang commanded hurriedly.

In her imagination, she created many magical girls in Huahe City, who fought against monsters in a frenzy under her command.

Because Shen Liang had always used S-level monsters as imaginary enemies, the magical girls naturally could not win and were quickly defeated. Shen Liang hurriedly ordered everyone to retreat to the interior of the church.

In the resistance scene she imagined, Li Xuan clearly saw the densely packed dozens of layers of various barriers outside the church. Although these may not be exactly the same as reality, since they are Shen Liang's memories, they probably won't be too different.

However, even though the battle line had shrunk to the last barrier inside the church, Li Xuan still did not hear her mention the information about the metaphor machine.

Is it possible that the terminal of the metaphor machine is not placed in the church?

In desperation, Li Xuan had to implant the hint that the device had been invaded again.

Shen Liang then took action. She hurried to a painting of a saint deep in the church and posed in a prayer posture. The painting soon emitted light and opened a portal. Shen Liang hurried to the warehouse under the church and injected magic power into a wall, removing a certain seal.

After the seal was lifted, the wall suddenly turned into a door. Shen Liang hurriedly took out the key, opened the door and walked in, but he could not see the scene inside the door clearly no matter what.

"It seems that she attaches great importance to keeping the secret there, so as outsiders, we have no way of getting a glimpse of the details inside." Mian Yin explained.

"Well, knowing the location is enough. Mian Yin, can you let everyone in the church sleep a little more soundly? I need to make sure that I won't be disturbed when I'm taking action." Li Xuan asked.

"Of course there is no problem, but they are all protected by magic, so the effect may be discounted." Mian Yin said.

"That's enough, let's get back to reality."

"Okay, cousin, just leave it to Mian Yin~" After saying this, Mian Yin brought Li Xuan back to reality.

Although the dream did not last long, when Li Xuan opened his eyes, it was already the early morning of the next day and the sky was already turning slightly pale.

He felt a sense of relief somewhere in his body, and when he lifted the covers, he saw his black cat hiding inside, giving him a morning bite.

"Who taught you this?" Li Xuan asked in surprise.

"I'm hungry and want to eat something." The black cat answered vaguely.

The vibration of the black cat's vocal cords made Li Xuan feel comfortable, and he couldn't help but press her head deeper.

The black cat also tried hard to swallow with its small mouth, massaging the mushroom head with its throat, and its delicate palms also wrapped around the base, loosening and tightening it to try to squeeze out the milk inside.

Seeing how Black Cat was trying hard to swallow, Li Xuan didn't want to make her too hard, so he ejaculated as soon as he felt a little bit of it.

The black cat swallowed it as if it were a treasure, and even sucked out the milk remaining in its urethra carefully.

Li Xuan touched the black cat's head with emotion. After getting up and washing up, he planned to take her to have a proper breakfast, but the black cat said that she was full and did not eat another bite.

Li Xuan was in a hurry, so he teleported to the vicinity of the church with the black cat.

In the dream, the outermost barrier of the church was about two kilometers away. It was a thin perception barrier that could only vaguely distinguish whether there were monsters approaching. But Li Xuan was not sure that the barrier could not distinguish him at all, so he hid within a two-kilometer range and tried to use the function of the transmission channel to locate the basement of the church.

This was a very delicate task, because the church was different from other places, and it was densely covered with various perception, restriction and anti-reconnaissance barriers. Although his spatial ability was unique, once it aroused any vigilance of the magical girls, this operation would be completely declared a failure.

The black cat stood aside obediently. Not only did it not disturb Li Xuan, but it also helped him to be alert to any movement around him.

In order not to attract the attention of the magic girls, Li Xuan chose to use the most gentle method and carefully created a one-time space channel. Then he drank the wine of joy that had the ability to conceal his breath, and then he brought the black cat to the church's warehouse. The whole process caused almost no space disturbance.

Coming to the wall where the seal was hidden, Li Xuan gently stroked the wall with his palm, but did not find anything unusual. Even when he tried to use the portal to pass through the wall, there were only bricks and soil behind it.

Li Xuan repeatedly checked the surrounding walls and did not find any secret room, so he speculated: "It seems that this seal is hidden. There is a non-existent room behind the seal. It is probably a space magic. Black Cat, do you have a way to quietly break the seal?"

Black Cat shook his head.

"I should have brought Yao here earlier. She is the only A-level seal system in the family. Looks like we have to go through it again." Li Xuan said regretfully.

"Yao, it can't be cracked. All her sealing magic is used to restrict the enemy and can't break the seal." The black cat shook his head.

"So, we can only rely on Tang Xi and Qi Mo? They are both B-level, and they may not be able to unlock such a high-level seal." Li Xuan said with a frown.

"Black Cat, I won't be able to remove the seal either, but I can ask big brother to go to the back room." Black Cat said softly.

Li Xuan thought that since Black Cat could use the space awakening, he might have a certain grasp of space abilities.

Judging from Yao's situation, at least an A-level magical girl can automatically transform her awakening into liberation after falling. But the problem is that the black cat's ability covers a very large area, and the people in the church will definitely notice it.

"No, we are here to sneak in. Your liberation ability makes too much noise and cannot be used here." Li Xuan shook his head.

"It won't be very big, and you don't need to release it. Do you want to try it?" asked the black cat.

"Oh? Do you have any other ideas?" Li Xuan asked curiously.

Seeing that Li Xuan no longer objected, the black cat transformed towards the wall.

After falling from the devil, the black cat is still wearing cat pajamas, but the style is much sexier, and she looks like a hot little wild cat.

Even after drinking the wine of joy that concealed her aura, the powerful evil energy of the A-level witch still caused some vibrations in the surroundings. Fortunately, the ability of Mian Yin was still in effect, so no one noticed the abnormality here.

Chapter 230: The True Appearance of the Metaphorical Machine (Part )

Li Xuan looked at the black cat nervously. He knew very well the magic the black cat mastered: there were only three in total: Word Spirit, Pupil Transformation and Lunar Eclipse.

Moreover, the words can only be effective against living things. How can the black cat get to the space where the metaphor machine is hidden without breaking the seal?

The black cat quickly gave the answer with his actions.

"Pupil changes."

The black cat stared at the wall in front of him, and his pupils suddenly shrank into a thin slit. Then, the invisible seal was physically transformed into a golden door.

"6! Can the seal be physicalized? Your magic is too amazing!" Even though he had been amazed many times, Li Xuan was once again shocked by the black cat's magic.

"The seal is also magic, so it can be transformed, but the structure is a little more complicated." Black Cat said, and quickly canceled the transformation - it seems that she has not forgotten Li Xuan's reminder.

"It's really worth bringing you out here!" Li Xuan excitedly kissed the black cat's chubby face, and then tried to use the space channel to connect to the sealed space.

The seal that was materialized by the black cat no longer had the property of hiding. At best, it was just a very solid door. The space hidden behind it was not an independent world like the False Evil Land. It was just a small area opened up by space magic. In essence, it was still in the same world.

So after spending some effort, Li Xuan successfully built a passage connecting the two spaces and led the black cat into the location of the metaphor machine terminal.

A dazzling white light obscured Li Xuan's vision. On the other side of the portal was a pure white room. The floor, walls, and everything in sight were all white. There was nothing in the room, not even doors or windows.

No, it's not nothing.

Li Xuan moved his eyes upwards and found a huge spherical container suspended on the top of the room. The container was made of a completely transparent material and was surrounded by a three-dimensional and complex magic circle. It emitted a faint light, creating a fantasy scene.

In the center of the container, a naked girl was floating.

The girl had her arms outstretched, her head lowered, her legs slightly bent, and her slightly furrowed brows indicating that she was still alive, but her expression looked extremely painful.

There were many tubes inserted into the girl's body, connected to some device on the ceiling. Some of these tubes were connected to the girl's mouth and nose, and some were connected to the excretion holes. It seemed that the girl's diet and excretion were completely dependent on these tubes. As for the needles inserted into the spine, wrists, ankles and even the neck, their purpose was unknown.

Because there were so many tubes and instruments connected to her body, the girl looked more like she was hanging there than suspended.
