Magical Girl's Knight Brother

The only one who has the ability to stand in the sun without being affected is probably the god of greed.

But the problem is that the crab monster is only a captain-level existence and there is no way he can withstand the erosion of sunlight.

Judging from Qin Nan's reaction, the other party was also quite surprised by this. In other words, this ability was probably not something the heretic demon was born with.

This is a bit strange. What kind of power do those heretic demons possess that they can actually do things that even greedy people cannot do?

Chapter 24: Weird Words

In the endless dark world, the thick fog is like an impenetrable curtain, swallowing up all the light and life in this land.

The ground beneath my feet seemed to have life, sometimes hard and sometimes like a swamp.

In an environment with extremely low visibility, several dilapidated walls were vaguely visible, covered with signs of decay and mold, and even tentacles that appeared from nowhere and spread all the way to the base of the wall.

The cold wind howled, carrying a sharp whistle, as if it were the wailing of a lonely ghost. A foul smell and the stench of blood blew in the air.

At some point, a group of blurry figures slowly emerged from the thick fog. They moved slowly forward, but their faces could not be seen clearly. Only a cold breath could be felt.

In the gloomy environment, a whisper was heard, as harsh as the sound of iron chains rubbing against the ground.

"Sir, your speculation is correct. I'm afraid those greedy people have really made a comeback."

"Not many beings have the power to tear the ghost crab from the real world in an instant, and the power to take him thousands of miles away in just a few minutes is probably only those faceless creatures."

Although the voice was harsh, the tone was extremely respectful.

Then, a young voice emerged.

"I'll just assume the ghost crab is dead."

"This"

Although I already had a guess in my mind, I was still a little shocked when I heard Sir Sir confirm it at first.

"Sir, the last energy of the ghost crab is reflected in Snow City. Should we..."

"Qiong Niu, you have to understand that in the reversed world, there is no concept of distance. Even if they are thousands of miles apart, it is only a step away from them. We can't find any clues."

The young voice replied lightly.

"But."

The being called Qiongniu sounded somewhat anxious.

"The Greedy Ones haven't appeared in seven years. Although we don't have much interaction with them, we still run into each other occasionally.

When they disappeared, countless mirrors in reality cracked. This level of energy has a drastic impact on the entire world. I'm afraid something big has happened in the reversed world. The adults above all believe that the reversed world has collapsed.

They suddenly appeared at this time and attacked our people. Will this have any impact on our plan?"

Hearing Qiongniu's somewhat heavy tone, the young voice paused for a moment before slowly speaking.

"What you should be asking is how those greedy people managed to survive without seven years of negative energy supply."

"To be honest, sir, I do have some concerns about this. The disappearance of the Greedy Ones was already somewhat suspicious, and now they have inexplicably appeared again. I am worried."

"What are you worried about?" The young man's voice was a little playful. "Do you really think the Greedy Ones will turn against us?"

"The Ghost-Faced Crab's mission failed mainly because of that unknown entity. If that guy hadn't interfered, the girl would have died long ago." Qiongniu said coldly.

The young voice laughed sinisterly upon hearing this.

"Until now, the Greedy have coexisted peacefully with us. This time, they've voluntarily abandoned their seven-year hiding and revealed their tracks. Presumably, our recent actions have provoked them."

"What you mean is..." In an instant, Qiongniu seemed to have figured something out.

"It seems our old friend doesn't want us to be exposed to the sun too early, hehe."

A laugh like the cry of a ghost floated from afar, shaking the surrounding thick fog and causing it to surge violently.

The eyes in the shadows were tightly closed, and thunder flashed across the sky above their heads. The blood-red clouds kept twisting, and it seemed that they would crack at any time.

The laughter caused him to shudder, and the voice of Qiongniu rang out again.

"But sir, our results are not yet mature, and those faceless men are coming out again. I'm worried..."

"Not in a hurry."

The young voice said with a faint smile.

"Since they have already revealed their identities, there must be someone who is more troubled than us."

When Qiongniu heard this, he also let out a series of eerie low gasps. Having followed the Lord for so long, he naturally knew who those 'people' the Lord was talking about were.

"Sir, what about our plan?"

"Let's put it aside for a while. Anyway, that thing is not mature enough. In such a chaotic situation, we don't need to draw fire. But we can find some bait to spread out."

"Bait?" Qiongniu was a little confused.

Then the young voice suddenly asked back.

"Qiongniu, have you ever fished?"

"I've never fished before." Qiongniu answered honestly.

"Fishing is all about casting your line, whether you're fishing or not."

The young voice has a captivating charm.

Hearing this, Qiongniu immediately understood.

"Sir, I know what to do."

In another dimension, Tang Zijun, the current owner of the mirror plane, tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

The invasion of the real world by the Greedy Ones is not without trace. The main targets of those guys are basically concentrated on humans whose negative energy has increased dramatically.

Since both parties do not exist in the same dimension, humans and greedy people generally cannot observe each other.

But when some people fall into darkness themselves or their hearts due to tremendous pressure or some things, the surging negative energy will attract the arrival of those greedy people.

Once the intensity of negative energy reaches a critical point, the real world and the reversed world will form a tunnel connected to each other through the reflection of the mirror.

This kind of channel is short and unpredictable, which may be the main reason why those spirit beasts cannot sense the presence of the Greedy One.

But unlike the greedy ones, the arrival of the heretic demon is often not related to a single individual, but is related to the total negative energy of the entire city.

There had never been a magical girl in Xuecheng before, Tang Zijun was sure of that.

If he had lived so close to the other person for several years without noticing her existence, then Tang Zijun would have lived in vain.

The problem is that, in a sense, magical girls and outer demons have an alternative symbiotic relationship.

The absence of magical girls means the absence of any dark forces, and vice versa.

Having lived in this city for several years, Tang Zijun had never sensed the presence of any external demon.

Then think about it the other way around. If your sister becomes a magical girl, does it also mean that the negative energy threshold of Snow City has reached a critical point, and then countless heretic demons will breed?

Please vote for the new book during its release period. It's too hard to even make it onto the new book list.

Chapter 25 Daily Work

How can a group of ordinary people living in the shadows coexist peacefully with the creatures in the darkness?

Tang Zijun started thinking about this problem a long time ago. In the constant battle with the greedy people, he was also observing this familiar yet unfamiliar world.

Apart from those unspeakable existences hidden in the dark shadows, the world itself is not much different from before Tang Zijun traveled through time.

The people here still study, work, and get married, repeating their lives day after day like a clockwork robot bird. Similarly, they also experience complex emotions such as joy, pain, and sadness.

For Tang Zijun, this world is very similar to his own world. The only difference is that all the negative emotions here are materialized by some strange power.

Whether they are greedy or heretics, they are all maggots that parasitize this real world, constantly devouring the buds of what is called "human nature".

On the other hand, magical girls are a defense mechanism of the real world itself.

At this moment, Tang Zijun is trying to find a way to awaken this defense mechanism.

"Time to get up, Karasuma."

I knocked on the door for the third time this morning, and this time, there was finally a response from Tang Cao's bedroom.

Tang Zijun was also a little helpless, as if since Tang Cao got used to living here, she had completely let go of her nature, and waking him up every day had become his daily task.

I always feel like I have changed from a brother to a servant.

"Hurry up, your classmates have been waiting for you for a long time." After shouting again, Tang Zijun turned around and went back to the living room.

At this time, Su Siyao was sitting dignifiedly at the dining table in the living room, with her back straight, but her eyes were unconsciously glancing at the meat buns on the table.

Noticing Tang Zijun's figure, she quickly retracted her gaze and sat up straight, as if she had just been caught by the teacher eating snacks in class.

"Eat if you want. We steamed a lot of buns today." Tang Zijun waved at Su Siyao.

"Don't we have to wait for Tangtang to get up and eat together?" Su Siyao blinked.

"Don't you know her yet?" Tang Zijun asked with a smile, then pulled over his own bench and sat down.

In their house, the sofas are for guests to sit on. Even if there are no guests, that is Tang Cao's seat. Over time, the bench became his exclusive seat.

Picking up a bun, Tang Zijun continued, "It might be too late to wait until Tang Cao wakes up. I guess she'll just take two on the way."

"Oh." Hearing this, Su Siyao hurriedly picked up the bun and started eating.

A good day starts with a hearty breakfast.

In the past, Tang Zijun didn’t care too much about breakfast, because he always slept until noon. However, after he developed the habit of getting up early, he felt like something was missing if he didn’t eat something in the morning.

Moreover, Tang Cao is still in the growing stage, and her mother has repeatedly insisted that she must have three meals a day, so Tang Zijun now pays more attention to diet.

Today's breakfast is steamed buns with the leftover bone soup. It is said that if you eat noodles without garlic, the flavor will be half gone. Tang Zijun felt that eating steamed buns would be almost the same, so she specially prepared Laba garlic.

This pickled garlic is not too spicy, and even girls like Tang Cao and Su Siyao who don’t like garlic can accept it.

Originally, Tang Zijun was planning to make noodles. With bone broth as the soup base, it would be delicious if he just boiled some plain noodles. But when he was buying spring bamboo shoots yesterday, he suddenly smelled the aroma of meat filling.

As soon as Tang Zijun smelled it, he knew that the meat filling was definitely freshly minced and the meat was not frozen, so he bought some to try.

Facts have proved that Tang Zijun's approach was very wise, as can be seen from the fact that Su Siyao's hands were covered in oil and she was still licking her fingers.

After a delicious breakfast, Tang Zijun put the buns in the lunch box prepared in advance. This was Tang Cao's request. She was very angry that she didn't get up early to eat something delicious.

Tang Zijun said: I really tried my best

After watching Tang Cao and Su Siyao walk out the door, the whole room became quiet again.

The morning in Snow City is not much different from that in other cities. As the sun rises, the world outside the window becomes gradually more lively.

Amidst the sounds of car horns, noise, and middle school music, Tang Zijun took the dishes to the kitchen to wash as usual. After he finished washing and walked out humming a song, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a 'newcomer' in the house.

I don’t know if it’s because she found a suitable place to live, but Xiaobai didn’t leave with Tangcao today. She was still curled up on Tangcao’s bed and taking a nap.

In other words, Xiaobai is a so-called spiritual beast. If it were an ordinary kitten, Tang Zijun would never let her go to bed without taking a bath. God knows if there are any bacteria or fleas on her body.

Tang Zijun slowly walked to the door of Tang Cao's room, leaned against the door frame and looked at the ball of white fur on the bed.

If he hadn't actually heard Xiaobai speaking human language before, she would have looked no different from an ordinary kitten.

Xiaobai is a lion cat, the same breed as the one raised by Pan Jinlian. Its fur is slightly longer, especially around its neck, making it look like a little lion. Its snow-like color and sky-blue eyes give it a feeling of elegance and luxury.

I have to say, she is so cute that even Tang Zijun couldn't help but want to rush up to hug her and kiss her.

However, when he thought about the other party's IQ being the same as that of humans, Tang Zijun hesitated and gave up the idea.

He didn't want to be misunderstood by his neighbors because a cat screamed indecently.

Xiaobai seemed to feel something at this time. His ears moved slightly and he slowly opened his eyes.

When she saw Tang Zijun standing at the door staring at her without blinking, all her sleepiness disappeared instantly. She jumped three feet high with her fur standing on end, ready to fight again.

The feeling of being stared at while sleeping by a male human who smells like a dog is too terrifying. Xiaobai kept looking around, trying to find Tangcao. After a long time, she realized that Tangcao had already gotten up and gone to school.

"So, from now on, I'll have to stay with this male human and a cat during the day?"

Thinking of this, Xiaobai's cat face fell.

Looking at Tang Zijun opposite her, she felt a little regretful about agreeing to let Tang Cao move in.

In response to Xiaobai's resistance, Tang Zijun just smiled faintly. He was now certain that the other party could not sense his energy.

If the other party could really sense the power of Kamen Rider, it would be impossible for him to turn a blind eye all night.
