Magical Girl's Knight Brother

"What exactly happened? Why do I feel like you guys know something but don't dare to say it?"

"This matter is quite complicated." Tang Zijun reached out and covered Xiaobai's head. "If I don't tell you, it's just my business. If I tell you, you'll all be in danger."

"Danger? What danger?"

Xiaobai frowned. After knowing Tang Zijun for such a long time, this was the first time she saw this expression on his face.

Tang Zijun didn't know how to explain it, he just touched his trouser pocket.

Feeling the hard touch through his pants, Tang Zijun quickly reached out and took out the rainbow crystal flower.

Tang Zijun spoke in a complicated tone while silently displaying it in front of Qin Nan.

"How is it, does it look familiar?"

Chapter 106 A bigger secret

At first, Qin Nan and the others focused their attention on Tang Zijun and did not notice what was in his pocket.

And now, when Tang Zijun took out the rainbow crystal flower, Qin Nan's eyes suddenly widened, looking at the gem in front of him in disbelief.

"Rainbow crystal flower! Where did you get that?!"

"What do you say?"

Tang Zijun asked helplessly, then placed the rainbow crystal flower in Qin Nan's hand and continued.

"The place we went to this time was a little different from the previous ones. There was a group of things similar to 'rulers' there. They looked very strange, and there were also traces of human habitation. That's where I discovered this thing."

"Are you okay?" Xiao Hui looked worried.

"Luckily, that thing can't hurt me, but I can't seem to hurt it either. I chased it all the way through a primeval forest before it was willing to cooperate with me. Oh, I should have changed into a pair of sneakers earlier."

Tang Zijun felt a little sad when he looked at his slippers that were almost worn out. After running for so long, he was afraid that these shoes would not be wearable anymore. He really didn't know how those people in the anime could fight monsters in slippers.

Tang Zijun did not become extravagant and wasteful just because of his financial freedom. The habit of frugality and housekeeping was already engraved in his DNA.

Listening to his words, Xiao Hui and Qin Nan looked at each other.

Oh my god, that's a lot of information.

"Can you confirm the identity of this thing? For example, which magical girl did it belong to before? Perhaps you can ask Mr. Qing Nang?"

"I'm afraid I can't do it." Qin Nan shook his head.

"The Rainbow Crystal Flower isn't just the power of a magical girl; it's the essence of nature. If something like this loses its host, it will instantly vanish into nothingness, transforming into pure natural energy. It won't survive at all."

"So you mean, the owner of this rainbow crystal flower is still alive?" Tang Zijun's eyes moved.

Qin Nan hesitated for a moment and sighed slowly.

"Although I am willing to speculate from this angle, but..."

She injected her magic power into the rainbow crystal flower, and then the surface of the gem began to flicker with fluorescence, and soon, a withered plant mark emerged.

"Generally speaking, a rainbow crystal flower cannot be activated by another magical girl if it has an owner. However, this rainbow crystal flower is clearly ownerless. Most importantly, the magic power within it is depleting, which is proof that its host is dead."

"When a magical girl dies, the rainbow crystal flower usually begins to crumble, but this... seems a little off."

Xiao Hui suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but speak. "Sister Nan, you forgot, you just talked about the situation where the magical girl died in battle."

"You mean?" Tang Zijun also reacted at this time. "The owner of this rainbow crystal flower did not fight the enemy, but had already..."

In response to this, Xiao Hui sighed softly, feeling a little depressed.

"I'm afraid this is the only possibility. The rainbow crystal flower is the source of the magical girls' power. They would never give it up. The fact that you picked it up proves that its owner was killed long ago."

"The most crucial question is, how could this thing appear in that place? Could it be that a magical girl has touched that area before?" Qin Nan frowned.

Tang Zijun was lost in thought, his gaze fixed on Xiaobai.

He still remembered the strange dream when Xiaobai's memory was transferred, the huge monster, and the magical girl team that fought against it.

If all this happened in the dream world, then this question would have a reasonable answer, but the problem is that they are now unable to determine the identity of the owner of this rainbow crystal flower.

Qin Nan looked at the rainbow crystal flower in his palm and felt that this small gem was heavy.

"This magical girl was at least Green Level in her lifetime. Even among magical girls, she is considered extremely powerful. To be able to kill her silently before she even transformed, God knows what she went through in that world."

Tang Zijun thought of the group of red-robed figures he had encountered before. Those guys were indeed weird, but even they couldn't kill a senior magical girl.

Any magical girl who can reach the green level has, without exception, experienced many Shura fields. Being able to stand at this position, Tang Zijun does not believe that they will be easily ambushed.

In other words, there is a high possibility that there is something else hidden in that forest, something even stranger and more powerful.

Just as I was thinking about it, the sound of a key opening the door came from outside the house.

Hearing the noise, Qin Nan quickly returned the rainbow crystal flower to Tang Zijun and stood up reflexively.

Tang Zijun was also stunned for a moment, then put the rainbow crystal flower in his pocket. "Let's put this matter to rest for now. The most important issue now is investigating Sir Skeleton."

"Ah."

Qin Nan nodded heavily, then walked out.

As soon as he walked out of Tang Zijun's bedroom, he met Tang Cao and Su Siyao who came in.

For no reason, Qin Nan suddenly felt like she was caught doing something bad. Her body stiffened and she didn't dare to look at Tang Cao.

"We are back~"

Tang Cao didn't seem to notice anything wrong. She just happily picked up the two big bags in her hands. Su Siyao behind her was holding five or six express packages and was panting.

"I bought some food on the way. Sister Nan, take it with you when you leave. By the way, what are you doing?"

"Ah uh. I, we"

Qin Nan stammered, not knowing how to answer.

At this moment, she happened to see Xiao Hui flying out from above her head and quickly spoke.

".Your brother and I are playing with birds."

boom.

In the bedroom, Tang Zijun, who was changing his shoes and preparing to go out, almost fell down. Fortunately, he held onto the door frame in time.

Qin Nan also realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly added.

"It's my bird I'm playing with."

"Stop talking! You're making things worse!" Tang Zijun slapped Qin Nan on the back of the head and walked out speechlessly. "We're teaching Qin Nan's parrots to talk. Come on, Xiao Hui, show them."

How quickly Xiao Hui reacts.

"Congratulations on getting rich! Congratulations on getting rich!"

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Tang Cao clapped enthusiastically.

Although she knew that Xiao Hui was a spirit beast, she knew that her brother was unaware of this.

Anyone who meets a parrot as smart as Xiaohui would be unable to resist teaching it to talk. Tang Cao was also very happy to see that Senior and his brother started playing together so quickly.

However, Su Siyao narrowed her eyes slightly.

His gaze stayed on Qin Nan for a long time, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her clothes were not wrinkled.

Chapter 107 Mutation

As night falls, the lights are on.

Chongqing is like a shining pearl, blooming with charming brilliance in the night.

The outlines of skyscrapers rise and fall under the night sky, and the buildings of different heights are colorful, showing the enthusiasm and vitality of this internet celebrity city.

The Jialing River and the Yangtze River rush by, the river water glows silver in the moonlight, Hongya Cave is brilliantly lit, and the layers of stilt houses are connected by lights.

Neon lights flicker in the streets and alleys, and the bustling night market is bustling with people.

The street lights complement each other, outlining the skyline of the bustling city.

In stark contrast to this bustling world is the interior of an abandoned factory in the suburbs. Even the splendor of the city cannot dispel the silence and solemnity here.

A blue figure took advantage of the night and carefully sneaked into the outskirts of the factory.

The abandoned factory looked extremely eerie and strange in the middle of the night. It had been shut down for a long time, and the machine tools and equipment inside had all been sold off.

The blue figure lightly climbed over the high wall and landed steadily on the ground inside the factory.

Her body was tense, and she tried to control her breathing to be extremely light, as if she was afraid of disturbing the existence here.

"Is this the place?"

In the silent environment, a faint voice appeared in the girl's mind.

The girl nodded slightly. On her shoulder, a small frog was staring with big eyes, observing the surrounding environment curiously.

"If my perception is correct, this should be the place. Although I can't pinpoint the location of the beast egg, if it's one of those outer demons protecting it, they'll still emit a faint scent."

Her eyes were extremely sharp in the darkness, fixed firmly on the row of large factory buildings in front of her.

The night wind blew quietly, ruffling the girl's hair on her forehead, but she didn't notice it, and it didn't affect her focused expression at all.

"This factory is indeed the most suitable place to place exotic beast eggs. The previous boss, Ha Chuchu, ran away, and many people came here to make trouble and demand their wages. It caused quite a stir."

The girl took cautious steps, observing the surrounding environment while slowly moving towards the factory.

Through some broken glass, she could vaguely see the dilapidated machines and piles of miscellaneous items inside the factory.

In the center of the factory building, there is an area shrouded in shadows, and an unsettling atmosphere is slowly emanating from there.

"That's probably it."

The girl frowned and clenched her fists unconsciously.

The little frog also noticed the oppression there and couldn't help but remind him.

''Be careful, Nana.''

The girl in blue nodded slightly. Her heartbeat was particularly clear in the silent environment, and her nervous emotions were like a tide, but at this time, there was no possibility of turning back.

We finally determined the location of this thing, how could we just leave in such disgrace?

The grounds of the factory park were overgrown with weeds and looked desolate, as if they had not been taken care of for some time.

The girl looked up and down, then she found the right direction and jumped. She soared into the air and landed lightly on top of the factory building.

The girl moved forward slowly, feeling the rusty guardrail, and soon she arrived right above the factory area.

Looking down through the skylight at the top, with the faint light, soon, an oval egg-shaped object appeared in her field of vision.

''Found it!''

The girl raised the corners of her mouth and felt a little excited.

Originally, she was just guessing and not 100% sure, but now, after actually seeing this strange beast egg, she felt that it was worth it to cancel the hot pot party tonight.

"I should be the first one to find an unhatched alien beast egg on my own, right?"

You know, the monster eggs cannot be sensed by magic before they are hatched. How can she not be excited when she finds the existence of monster eggs based on subtle clues?

But the little frog looked a little nervous.

"Be careful, Nana, I always feel that this is not normal."

Before the voice fell, the strange beast egg below suddenly began to move.

The surface of the strange beast egg flickered with a strange light, as if it had sprouted life. It began to beat violently and spewed out hazy mist.

The air around seemed to become sticky at this moment, making people feel suffocated as if they were in the deep sea.

The girl frowned and subconsciously tightened the star staff in her hand.

At this moment, a group of figures emerged from the factory. Their movements were strange and swift, and they soon surrounded the strange beast egg.

The underworld! So many!?

Seeing this scene, the girl's breathing stagnated, and the knuckles holding the star staff turned white.

"Sure enough, these guys are really secretly doing some ulterior motives."

The bodies of those Hades were twisted, and their faces could not be seen clearly, but one could feel the inhuman evil aura. They surrounded the strange beast's eggs, as if they were comforting the creatures inside the eggs.
