Magical Girl's Knight Brother

"You are still young and don't know these things yet. You will understand them when you grow up. No one is free to choose their own fate in this world."

Hearing this answer, Luan Luan's eyes dimmed a little.

"dad."

"Will I never be able to be a normal person?"

"How is that possible? Why do you say that?" Chang Lei frowned.

"It says on TV that other kids go to school, but I..."

Luan Luan pursed her lips and looked at her legs.

Although she had the same legs as a normal person, she could not feel their existence. Even if she hit them hard, she did not feel anything.

When Chang Lei noticed Luan Luan's gaze, he felt as if a soft spot in his heart was pulled.

"Don't worry, Dad will find a way."

Chang Lei closed the book and rubbed his daughter's head with trembling hands.

At this time, Luan Luan yawned.

Sighing silently, Chang Lei stood up and raised his hand to cover her with the quilt.

"Go to sleep. Dad will buy you a small cake tomorrow."

"Ah."

Luan Luan smiled.

"I want strawberry flavor."

"it is good."

Chang Lei kissed her forehead and turned to look at the photos on the wall.

The photo shows a father and daughter. They were smiling very brightly at the time, but Chang Lei really couldn't smile at this moment.

Looking at Luan Luan who closed her eyes, Chang Lei turned off the lights, walked out of the bedroom, and gently closed the door.

When Chang Lei thought about his daughter and mother's current physical condition, he felt like two mountains were pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

He sighed heavily, knowing that it was useless to think too much at this time.

Turn around slowly.

The next moment, Chang Lei was frightened by the figure in the dim living room.

But he reacted quickly, pointing at the figure and unable to speak for a long time.

The figure didn't say anything, just waved at him and turned to walk towards the bathroom.

Chang Lei had already recognized the man's identity. He looked back at his daughter's bedroom, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and followed the man into the bathroom.

Following the mirror above the sink, the two people disappeared into the real world one after the other.

"The Wolf Rider is half-kneeling on the ground, huh?"

In the reversed world, Tang Zijun crossed his arms, chuckled and shook his head.

"May I ask which literary fairy tale this scene is from?"

"It's nonsense, it's nonsense."

Chang Lei waved his hands awkwardly, and at the same time he sighed a little. Tang Zijun's fighting power at this moment was beyond his imagination. He actually didn't sense Tang Zijun's presence at all.

If this had happened in the past, if Tang Zijun had been able to get behind me so stealthily, I would have probably been greeted with a knight kick as soon as I turned around.

However, what made Chang Lei sigh the most was the environment he was in at this moment.

“I never thought that I would come back here one day.”

Tang Zijun saw the regret in Chang Lei's eyes and shrugged. "Come back if you want to. I'm not stopping you from coming in."

Chang Lei glanced at Tang Zijun without saying anything.

You didn't stop me. Who knows if you would get addicted to fighting and kill yourself? I finally escaped to the real world, and now I'm going back to the minefield to dance. Isn't that just courting death?

"I don't know much about medicine. Luan Luan, can you really not stand up?" Tang Zijun asked.

Chang Lei's brow darkened when he heard this. "Saving her life has already exhausted most of my energy. I'm afraid I can't heal her leg."

"What if I give you enough mirror cores?" Tang Zijun saw Chang Lei was stunned, paused, and then continued. "I'm not trying to help you, I just want to help Luan Luan."

Chang Lei also understood what Tang Zijun wanted to express.

"I appreciate your kindness. I thought so before, but this matter is complicated. The energy of the greedy is harmful to the human body. If you force it too much, it might backfire. I don't want your leg to heal but your life to be gone."

"Is that so?" Tang Zijun nodded thoughtfully.

He really didn't understand these things very well, and as he said before, he didn't know much about medicine.

However, if the power of the Greedy Man cannot save Luan Luan, perhaps the magical girl who relies mainly on natural energy has the ability to save Luan Luan's life and cure her at the same time.

But this is just a possibility. In addition, Tang Zijun doesn’t know many magical girls now, so he can’t give a definite answer for the time being.

Chang Lei took the initiative to change the subject. "Why did you bring me here? Don't tell me you've already captured the sun-resistant demon alive."

"I didn't encounter any heretic demons that weren't afraid of sunlight, but I did encounter one beast egg that hatched under the sun."

Tang Zijun waved his hand, and a square prism floated over. What was reflected in the prism was the strange beast egg that was about to hatch in the escape room.

"Strange beast eggs?"

Chang Lei looked at the egg-shaped object in the prism with some curiosity. It was the first time he had seen such a thing, and he couldn't help but speak with disgust.

"The methods used by the Outer Path Demons as biological weapons are truly disgusting."

Chapter 78 Tang Cao, Tang Ziyi

Looking at the strange beast egg trapped in the mirror world in front of him, although there was a curtain between them, Chang Lei could still feel the evil aura.

"I've heard about these things a long time ago, but I've never had the chance to come into contact with them. Seeing them is truly better than hearing about them. They're even more disgusting than I imagined."

Since the Greedy Ones are transformed from the reflections of humans in the mirror, most of them invade in the form of humans. Even if they have sprouted a mirror core, they still look like monsters.

But the heretics in the inner world are different. Their images are all strange and bizarre. Any living or dead thing that is possessed by the dark crystal will be transformed into a heretic demon full of evil power.

The reason why the strange beasts created by the heretic demons are called biological weapons is because they have no rationality at all, only endless killing and bloodthirstiness.

In Chang Lei's words, there is no trace of beauty.

"How do you want me to cooperate with you?"

Tang Zijun came to Chang Lei's side, crossed his arms and asked casually.

"It's enough that you've caught it here," Chang Lei said solemnly. "Next, I'll try to figure out what kind of transformation this thing has undergone."

"Can you do it alone?"

Tang Zijun turned his head and glanced at Chang Lei.

"It's not that I look down on you, but this beast is no ordinary beast. If you interrupt its hatching phase rashly, it will go into an extreme frenzy and become extremely threatening."

"If you still possess the power of a senior cadre, I wouldn't mind. But now, with your current state, I'm afraid..."

"Are you worried about me?" Chang Lei smiled and continued, "Don't worry, even though I can't show my true strength, I won't let a guy like that get hurt."

The mirror channel opened, and pure light wrapped around the strange beast egg and presented it in front of the two.

Chang Lei tentatively touched the surface of the monster egg with his hand and scraped off a layer of black sticky liquid with his fingers, which made Tang Zijun frown.

"A pure creation of death, indeed the work of those guys from the other world."

As he spoke, Chang Lei stuck out his tongue and licked it.

"It tastes like rotten bear meat, with a hint of human blood. If you strip away the intense negative energy, the Outer Path Demon really did spend a fortune."

Looking at Chang Lei's operation on the 'alien beast egg on the tip of his tongue', Tang Zijun almost vomited.

However, he quickly gathered his thoughts and asked, "I can understand the smell of human blood, but what is a bear?"

"Have you heard of Xiong Bin?" Chang Lei asked back.

Tang Zijun was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chang Lei in surprise. "Are you talking about a special species among bears? I thought it was a creature from historical legends."

"Are we no longer 'legendary' creatures to the people of the real world?" Chang Lei said gently. "Don't underestimate those creatures in the other world."

"Bears are incredibly intelligent, cunning, and deceitful. They are the strongest and most intelligent of all bears. Most of the bear-related killings you've heard of are the work of bears."

Listening to Chang Lei's explanation, Tang Zijun also fell into silent thought.

Although Tang Zijun himself did not know much about the habits of these animals, he often watched some strange and mysterious cases on the Internet and had heard of some cases of bears killing humans.

"The so-called 'alien beast', first and foremost, has murderous intent towards humans. It is a terrifying monster that hunts humans for food."

"Most exotic beasts are bred with human flesh and blood, but for the Outer Path Demons, the best materials for breeding exotic beasts are monsters that have actually killed humans."

"Many bears who have tasted human flesh will become addicted to it and indulge in the desire to kill. They will disguise themselves as humans and wait for hikers to approach before rushing forward and killing them."

"The beast inside the beast egg you brought this time must be the bear that is being transformed by negative energy."

Chang Lei turned around and looked at Tang Zijun and continued.

"Luckily you acted quickly. I don't know where you caught this thing, but if this bear were exposed on the street, it would probably cause considerable damage."

"When did you start to worry about the safety of mankind?" Tang Zijun chuckled, crossing his arms.

"People change."

Chang Lei sighed softly, then he raised his head and was silent for a while before he slowly spoke.

"Honestly, Wolf Rider, there's something I've wanted to ask you before."

"What's the matter?" Tang Zijun asked.

"You've been silent for seven years. For seven whole years, you haven't appeared in front of me again. I know you will find me eventually, but you have no intention of killing me."

Chang Lei stared at Tang Zijun seriously. "Why did you choose to come out again at this time?"

"Perhaps you didn't know about the existence of the other world before, but that shouldn't be a reason for you to fight. I can sense your anxiety. You seem desperate to find out more about the Outer Path Demon, even going so far as to seek help from a former enemy."

"So why on earth did it happen that caused you to react so strongly?"

Hearing Chang Lei's words, Tang Zijun opened his mouth, paused, and couldn't help laughing.

"You're really sharp, Hux."

Tang Zijun shook his head slightly and sighed.

"It's not something that can't be discussed. After all, in a sense, we know each other pretty well—do you still remember my sister from my hometown?"

"Sister." Chang Lei pondered for a moment, his dusty memories slowly uncovered, and a name surfaced in his mind. "It's Tang Ziyi, right?"

"It's a good thing you still remember it." Tang Zijun smiled.

Tang Ziyi was Tang Cao's original name.

Tangcao was weak and sickly when he was young, and he had been suffering from illness since he was born. It was for this reason that his parents changed his name to "Tangcao", which was taken from the name of a traditional Chinese pattern, implying lushness and vitality.

Perhaps it was because of this name, Tang Cao really became much healthier after he was three years old. He never had any serious illness again and became more lively and outgoing.

"Actually, my situation is similar to yours."

Tang Zijun looked a little worried.

"You gave up your power as a senior cadre for Luan Luan, and endured inhuman pain every day. And I picked up the belt again, wasn't it for my sister?"

Seeing that Tang Zijun's expression did not seem fake, Chang Lei could understand his feelings.

Raising his hand and patting Tang Zijun's shoulder, Chang Lei sighed.

"Condolences."

"Thanks."

Tang Zijun nodded somewhat touchedly.

He reacted instantly and slapped Chang Lei's hand away.

"Why are you mourning? My sister is not dead!"
