Chapter 222

Hmph, she only showed off her rollerblading skills! She's a brave woman who's learned skiing, ice skating, diving, and can even fly planes, race cars, and skydive! She'll find an opportunity to show off all of that, which will not only earn her Qing Bao's admiration but also make her more reliable in Xiao Shu's eyes. She can even punch Sakura, kick the Stupid Dog, and headbutt Charlotte!

Tang Liuli had already imagined herself fighting sharks in the sea, defeating mysterious savages in the mountains, engaging in extreme sports in the city, racing against time in the wild, gliding gracefully on the ski slopes, hiking through the desert, and looking cool with a cat's head in a series of famous movie scenes.

Kiriwake Yayoi was about to say something comforting, she saw the Green Eyed Cat's adorable face suddenly brighten up, and silently swallowed her words. She thought that Liuli was, in a way, quite lively, cheerful, and indomitable.

Little Sakura changed the subject, saying:

"Speaking of Weibo, Xiao Qing, haven't you logged in and posted anything in a long time?"

Kiriwake Yayoi secretly observes the other party's account every day.

Unfortunately, because Chu Yuanqing's memory was getting worse and worse, she simply forgot about this incident. Her Weibo account with 15 million followers was practically a zombie account, not even popping up once, which made all the Little Yuan Xiao very sad.

There's an interesting story behind this.

Weibo has a like record system. Sometimes, when an Entertainment Industry accidentally likes a Weibo, it can spark a lot of speculation among fans. They might wonder if the Weibo was trending or the latest gossip, and the like could even be interpreted as a statement from the celebrity.

Therefore, it often happens that celebrities "accidentally" make mistakes, and then their studios take the blame, explaining that it was the employee managing the account who made the error.

But unfortunately, none of the Little Idol in the group could use this reason.

Chu Yuanqing, Chu Wangshu, and Kiriwake Yayoi are not backed by any company; their accounts are purely under personal management.

The gossip surrounding Xie Qingxuan and Tang Liuli's families has been thoroughly investigated. Although no real inside story has been uncovered, it's clear that neither of their accounts are managed by a studio; they are both in their own hands.

Chu Yuanqing liked almost every one of her teammates' Weibo, but she liked the most posts from Chu Wangshu, liking nearly a hundred of her Little Cotton-padded Jacket's Weibo.

Well, she clearly doesn't understand that you can see the history of liking posts on Weibo, like a silly mom who thinks she's secretly spying on the screen, only to find out she's been completely exposed.

The Little Cotton-padded Jacket's likes aren't worth analyzing, so let's leave that aside for now.

The others are quite interesting. The Social Anxiety Cat only likes Chu Yuanqing's posts, but never likes the Weibo where Chu Yuanqing is endorsing wedding dresses, and never comments on it.

While everyone else's comments were casual, Chu Yuanqing liked and commented on every single one of Little Sakura's posts, which always attracted a group of CP fans to take screenshots and treat them as sweet moments.

Like the former, Xie Qingxuan also commented frankly under Chu Yuanqing's Weibo about endorsing wedding dresses. "I also want to take wedding photos with Xiao Qing."

Yes, this happened just the day before yesterday. If it hadn't been linked to "Shine Front," it almost would have gone viral on Weibo's trending topics.

Because this statement was so direct and ambiguous, bordering on a unique confession, it was a rare occurrence in the Chinese Entertainment Industry. Not to mention, this "Stage Tyrant" on the show is the type of person who never jokes, in the eyes of fans and casual viewers, making it seem all the more real.

-- Xie Qingxuan challenges Kiriwake Yayoi #

--# The Great Demon King Confesses to Chu Yuanqing #

--# The Qing Cheng Qing Guo is real#

--# Xie Qingxuan states she wants to marry Chu Yuanqing #

--# Teammate or romantic interest? A 45-day commercial performance trip could turn into a battleground!#

These kinds of terms are still hanging at the bottom of Weibo's trending topics, breaking the hearts of die-hard fans and Solo Fan fans of the Golden Haired Doggy.

Xie Qingxuan was too direct, saying she wanted to take wedding photos with Chu Yuanqing, which made it impossible for public opinion to steer her towards being interested in wedding dress endorsements.

Of course, some fans optimistically believe that this falls under the category of best friends and close friends, and that the talk of neodymium copper is just nonsense.

On the other hand, compared to having a scandal with a male celebrity, fans would rather their idol be ambiguous with a girl, at least that means she is safe in that aspect and is less likely to have her career collapse, which is the easiest thing to happen in the Entertainment Industry.

Currently, Chu Yuanqing's various CP fans have already imagined all sorts of romantic entanglements within the team based on the team's likes patterns, and some have even started writing fan fiction of all kinds.

Well, it's worth mentioning that the Social Anxiety Cat play very wholesome and healthy roles in it.

Chu Yuanqing knew nothing about the strange things online; she was the type who rarely surfed the internet or watched short videos. Upon hearing this, she said:

"Oh yeah, I showed off my card the day I played <Shine Front>."

"Does Yayoi think it should be distributed more frequently?"

Little Sakura paused for a moment and then said:

"You can check the comments section of your Weibo."

Upon hearing this, the Pure White Witch logged into her account after a long absence and saw a chaotic barrage of "urging for more updates" comments in the comment section.

[I'm so upset! I wanted to see Qing Bao's latest appearance, but I have to look at group photos with her teammates???]

[Qing Bao has turned bad; she's become a heartless scumbag who's completely forgotten about her fans. She won't even post a single selfie to appease us???!]

[It's okay, as long as Xiao Qing is happy. Mom doesn't care at all about not seeing how you are doing lately.]

Chu Yuanqing glanced at a few messages and felt too guilty to look any longer. When she first got the phone, she had thought about posting messages every day, but too many things had happened on the day she arrived in Austria.

First, he encountered Charlotte.

Secondly, they figured out who was around Little Sakura and then guessed that someone around her was not right.

So after a while, I completely forgot about it.

Chu Yuanqing looked at the pitiful-looking Little Yuan Xiao in the comments section and couldn't help but feel extremely ashamed. She was clearly processing the positive emotions brought by her fans, but she had completely forgotten about them. No matter how she thought about it, it was too much.

The Pure White Witch secretly resolved to make up for it in the next month by becoming a good idol who frequently posts updates. With that thought, she immediately opened her phone's photo album, only to find it filled with low-quality landscape photos, as well as pictures of Little Cotton-padded Jacket, Liuli, Yayoi, and Kiyohyun.

Yes, there's absolutely no picture of her. Not a single one.

Chu Yuanqing hesitated and said:

"Is it too late for me to take a selfie now?"

Upon hearing this, the four Little Idol immediately pulled out their phone photo albums. Even the most socially awkward Green Eyed Cat had secretly taken several photos of the Pure White Witch recently. The versions they brought out were all different, and they could easily put together dozens of photos that could be directly uploaded.

For a moment, the table seemed to become a meeting place for Chu Yuanqing's fan club.

The Little Idol were secretly competing, each hoping the other would choose their photos to post.

Chu Yuanqing didn't think anything was wrong. She happily let everyone choose a photo of themselves, added a few group photos, and put together a Weibo post. She sent it out without much editing.

Well, although she didn't do it on purpose, judging from the result, it was a perfect example of spreading the benefits evenly.

Three minutes later, the comment section of this Weibo was filled with happy praise from the Little Yuan Xiao, who seemed to have completely forgotten about being ignored by the "bad woman" for several days. They all lost themselves in the beauty overload and had no choice but to forgive her.

Chu Yuanqing's lantern immediately absorbed many points of light. She felt like a female anchor being continuously funded by a wealthy patron, experiencing the special effects of the constantly vibrating "screen" and the rapidly accumulating silver magic power. She felt that something was strange.

The Pure White Witch was always old-fashioned. She felt that labor based on equal exchange was the most satisfying. To have so much magic without singing or dancing made her feel like she was getting something for nothing in a strange way, as if... she was selling her body!

However, this concern was quickly dispelled by the continuous flow of magic.

Chu Yuanqing's expression was serious, her clear eyes shimmering. When she looked at that Weibo, she seemed like a beautiful, holy, and solemn nun, filled with determination and courage, all for the sake of the church obtaining more relief food.

If it's to save the world, I wouldn't mind selling my body!

So she asked her Little Idol for a few more photos from different places, put them together, and posted them on Weibo.

Ten minutes later, the girl felt the lantern trembling, and happily poured all the overflowing magic into the rose petals. She then put the excess into the Paper Crane Can to increase its interest, just like a hardworking little hamster, feeling very satisfied.

Chu Yuanqing increasingly felt that the gift Little Sakura gave him was very useful. Her soul was always breaking into pieces, and her magic was constantly leaking out like a draft, but the magic in the Paper Crane Can would not be lost, which made him feel very at ease.

Unfortunately, if Yayoi's [Heart Forging] were to return to its former glory, the Paper Crane Can might have evolved from a piggy bank into a dam, directly storing the vast magical power of the [Sea] Realm.

However, it would be nice to let Yayoi fold some more paper cranes; perhaps by putting new paper cranes in, this little gift could become even more useful.

At the same time, Chu Yuanqing began to struggle with how to reciprocate. Putting aside that certain lecherous dog, whether it was Little Cotton-padded Jacket, Liuli, or Yayoi, they had all given her gifts properly, and she couldn't just accept gifts without giving anything back.

Especially considering the "magical item" Little Sakura gift, wouldn't it be too casual to just buy something on the street?

The Paper Crane Can is a magical item that can store a considerable amount of magic power, making it quite useful for [Witch]. It's normal for it to fetch hundreds of thousands of Great Xia coins when sold to the official store.

But if the gift is too expensive, the recipient may not accept it.

Even after finishing breakfast and leaving the hotel to visit the sights, Chu Yuanqing still couldn't figure out what to do.

Charlotte knew a lot about giving gifts to girls, but she wasn't stupid enough to ask Charlotte what gifts to give other girls.

Holmark Square at noon.

This place is located in Vienna's old town and has a long history.

A horse-drawn carriage carrying tourists passed by, while the Little Idol stood on a narrow street.

Chu Yuanqing gazed at the Encore Clock on the sky bridge. It was a large musical clock that spanned between two buildings, with a sliver of sky behind it reaching towards the azure sky. It looked quite artistic.

This is one of the finest works from the Art Nouveau movement, and is arguably the most famous attraction in the square.

It is said that bronze statues of 12 famous figures in Vienna will appear on the bridge in turn over 24 hours, each with its own accompanying music. At noon, all the statues will appear together, a cleverly designed feature.

For example, in the present day, Queen Maria Theresa, composer Joseph Haydn, ancient Roman emperors, Charlemagne, Prince Eugen...

These locally famous figures made their appearance to the accompaniment of melodious music.

Strangely, when the music entered the square, it was like a stone thrown into a lake, creating ripples on the surface. Wonderful accents intertwined and lingered for hundreds of meters, as deep and resonant as church bells, clearer than ever before.

This caused some locals, who were used to watching encores, to stop and listen to the melody of the music.

Chu Yuanqing frowned slightly as she looked at the twelve bronze statues slowly moving across the sky bridge. Her senses, belonging to the Pure White Witch, suddenly activated. The blackness in her eyes, like the vertical pupils of a dragon, cracked with gilded flames, revealing a hint of ominous darkness within them.

The girl murmured to herself:

"No murderous intent, no malicious thoughts, like an inanimate object that can only move in its womb."

"Is... there an egg of Calamity Beasts hidden inside?"

Although this kind of [Calamity Species] in a state of malfunction might at most make people with naturally keen senses, like Liuli, feel uncomfortable and experience some hallucinations, but it wouldn't pose any real safety hazard, there is one thing that is beyond doubt.

That is, any potential threat to disaster must be eliminated immediately.

Chu Yuanqing completely deviated from the script of a certain AI; the lantern she buried near her heart was tinged with red and black.

Thus, the burning Heart Tide surged through the Material World, its brilliance, like raging waves and raging fire, engulfing the entire square, and with a series of faint moans, cleansing everything in sight.

Encore clock was cleaned up again.

The Pure White Witch felt refreshed and invigorated. She looked at the musical clock and thought to herself:

"Hmm, that looks much better."

Afterwards, Chu Yuanqing and her Little Idol, who was completely unaware of what had happened, took some more photos in the square. After about ten minutes, they left the old town as if nothing had occurred.

At the same time, St. Stephen's Cathedral.

Underground base, central control room.

Dream Weaver Rabbit watched the video several times. After showing signs of revival, the [Calamity Species] buried in the Encore Bell evaporated and disappeared in the heat of the Heart Tide. When the recovery personnel who were waiting nearby went to check, they could only find remnants that looked like ashes.

It must be said that Amaterasu of the Donghuang Federation was far more brutal than that Saintess in this respect. The calamities she caused, even if they were just "unintentional" acts, all resulted in the complete loss of life and the destruction of the victims.

Dream Weaver Rabbit began to suspect that the E-Class [Calamity Species] were completely ineffective in the trial.

Chu Yuanqing didn't need to make any effort; she simply sensed the calamity instinctively and, as if activating a passive skill, extinguished the [Calamity Species] through Mirror Reversal.

"Not sure, let's try again."

Dream Weaver Rabbit decided to get some more frozen [Calamity Species] from the Vienna Division to see if Chu Yuanqing really had any passive skills.

This is also a good opportunity to prove Chu Yuanqing's talent to his superiors, confirm his qualification as [Lighthouse], and further stabilize morale within the army.

Thus, a certain Pure White Witch discovered that there was an unusually large amount of filth in Vienna today. She hadn't encountered anything like this in the previous two days, but today she could constantly smell the aura of [Calamity Species].

Although eradicating them wouldn't be difficult, it always made her worry about how many crises human civilization had accumulated to date.

The Dream Weaver Rabbit discovered a lot of information in it, and it analyzed:

"Her maximum destructive range so far is 1 kilometer. The way she kills [Calamity Species] is through Heart Tide intimidation technique, which is similar to the power of will. Magic only accounts for one-thousandth of the power used, which is why it seems effortless."

"Hmm, even D-Class [Calamity Species] is flammable when it's in a crashed state?"

"Based on this, [Calamity Species] below C-Class should pose no threat to Chu Yuanqing."

However, for safety reasons, all the [Calamity Species] used to cultivate [Calamity Shell] and [Fuel] in the base are of the lowest rank. D-Class is already the highest rank that is sealed inside, and C-Class is already a level that is difficult to control immediately once it gets out of control.

In other words, if they wanted to give Chu Yuanqing a challenging test, the base had run out of "materials".

Furthermore, if another batch of [Calamity Species] emerges, the subsequent training in the Vienna Division will be affected.

So...

"Should we try using the hatched Calamity Beasts within safe limits?"

Volume 1: Chapter 213. The Black Death Memorial Pillar, revealing the Magical Girl's identity. (5K)

The thought of the Dream Weaver Rabbit flashed through my mind and then vanished.

--Calamity Beasts.

Even at the lowest level, these creatures, after hatching and molting, possess Combat Power surpassing that of tigers and wolves, and exhibit terrifying aggression and appetite towards humans.

If an E-Class Calamity Beasts is not controlled in time after its birth, it has a high probability of committing double-digit or even more murders if it roams into the city.

Although similar incidents have hardly occurred during the 17 years that [Pure White] has suppressed the world, we are always prepared for the worst, and related crisis plans, handling models, and disaster relief forces have been continuously practiced and refined.
