Gunshots in the Wilderness

Fang Ming looked at the darkening Sky Screen, then recalled his situation within Sky Screen. After hesitating for a moment, he turned and went downstairs to reunite with the Magical Girls.

Although the version of myself in the Sky Screen may have encountered an accident and be unable to change back, the real version of myself may not necessarily follow the same path as the version in the Sky Screen.

Moreover, Fang Ming has more important things to do right now than worry about that.

The Erosion Form, which is Xiao Bai's exclusive form in the Sky Screen, should also be put on the agenda.

Otherwise, Fang Ming was really worried that he would hold Xiao Qiu and the others back.

The next morning, the first snow of winter finally fell outside.

Although it was snow in the Americas District, Xiao Qiu and her friends were still very happy and excited.

Today's schedule is simple: to solve the problem troubling the Magical Girls in the Americas District, the Magical Girls decide to tour N City and help Aurora find the group of people behind the trouble.

Once the problems in the Americas District are resolved, the Magical Girls will be able to play freely Americas District.

This winter break, they plan to travel all over the Americas District!

The prerequisite is that they can resolve the problem here quickly.

However, before setting off to tour the entire city, the Magical Girls still had some disagreements about the team composition.

"So why you? Where's Brother Fang Ming?"

Inside Aurora's villa, Xiao Bai replaced Fang Ming and stood in the Magical Girls team, while Chen Xiaoxia, as always, provoked Xiao Bai directly opposite.

Xiao Bai at Chen Xiaoxia, then looked away and focused her gaze on Aurora, saying:

"Fang Ming asked me to teach you the fighting style of Magical Girls, so you won't have to use your full strength every time you fight."

"Hmph, all they do is unnecessary things."

Aurora crossed her arms, turned her head away, and looked as if she really disliked Xiao Bai.

But Xiao Bai was already used to Aurora's attitude. This girl was just not good at expressing her inner thoughts; she herself had no hostility towards Xiao Bai.

Unlike that blue idiot next to me...

"Leave the task of teaching Aurora how to fight to us," the blue-haired idiot teased Xiao Bai. "You're a Magical Girls who hasn't even activated your Shining Form yet; just cheer her on from the sidelines."

"Even without activating Shining Form, taking you down would be a piece of cake."

"Huh?! I don't believe it!! Let's fight if you dare! Do you?!"

Chen Xiaoxia rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to have a showdown with Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai sighed and turned to mock Chen Xiaoxia, but at the crucial moment, Xiao Chun acted as a mediator between them.

Xiao Chun stepped forward and said:

"Alright, alright, Xiaoxia, Xiao Bai, aren't we supposed to be on patrol today? What if we run out of magic and get into a crisis if we fight here?"

"... He's gone."

Xiao Bai, giving Xiao Chun face, turned and walked towards the van outside, while gesturing for everyone to follow behind him.

Four Magical Girls from the Central Continent District, plus Xiao Bai and Aurora, and two physical Magical Creatures —so many people that an ordinary sports car definitely couldn't fit them all.

So Xiao Bai specially arranged a seven-seater minivan and took everyone for a drive around the city.

Of course, the so-called patrols are only symbolic.

Xiao Bai had already instructed official members of the Magical Girl Alliance to investigate this place, and at the same time, she had the Crocodile Brotherhood help monitor the city's underground.

Both openly and secretly, they were actually searching for that group of rats hiding in the darkness; the Magical Girls' search was merely filling in the gaps.

Furthermore, Xiao Bai didn't think that after failing to attack the Magical Girls twice in a row, the group behind her would dare to show their faces and ask for a beating.

Based on Xiao Bai's guess, those people probably won't cause any trouble today. After all, their methods are completely ineffective against Magical Girls now, and continuing to show their faces will only lead to them getting beaten up.

They might even be able to trace their headquarters back to the Magical Girls.

So as long as they are not pure, they certainly won't come out to seek attention again, at least until their presence is revealed in the Sky Screen.

Perfect timing, Xiao Bai needs to take advantage of these few days to develop his Erosion Form.

At the same time, let's cultivate Aurora's combat experience in her Magical Girl Form.

Xiao Bai and Aurora actually fought each other.

For the past two months, Fang Ming has been teaching Aurora's fighting techniques in her original form, Xiao Bai has been testing Aurora's combat abilities after her transformation.

Xiao Bai imagination, but Aurora never really liked being with him, so eventually Xiao Bai stopped appearing in front of Aurora as often.

If it weren't for the fact that he was developing his own Erosion Form today, Xiao Bai wouldn't have shown up.

Since she's going to develop her own Erosion Form, Xiao Bai can't stay with the other Magical Girls forever.

Especially those from the Central Continent District.

He couldn't even tell them that he was going to activate his Erosion Form.

Xiao Bai is worried about Xiao Qiu and the others, but aren't Xiao Qiu and her Magical Girls just as worried about Xiao Bai?

Everyone could see what Xiao Bai's Erosion Form ultimately became in the Sky Screen; this was not something that Xiao Bai could simply gloss over by insisting that he would be "absolutely fine."

Moreover, the Xiao Bai in the Sky Screen "tricked" Xiao Qiu, saying that it would be fine, but in the end, it was prepared to die.

Therefore, in this respect, Xiao Bai's level of trust in Xiao Qiu and the others is probably zero.

Let alone activating the Erosion Form, Xiao Bai even feels that in the future, when encountering battle scenarios, Xiao Qiu and the others probably won't let Xiao Bai go forward to fight.

Having already activated their Shining Form, they possess such power.

But how could Xiao Bai be content to sit on the sidelines and be ignored by everyone else?

Xiao Qiu felt the same way about Xiao Bai and the others not wanting Xiao Bai to get hurt, and perhaps even more so!

Xiao Bai has decided that no matter what difficulties she encounters in the future, she will stand in front of the Magical Girls.

She promises that unless she dies, she will not allow any Magical Girls to be lost!

Therefore, activating the Erosion Form is imperative!

Chapter 206 Gunshots in the Wilderness

In order to activate the Erosion Form, Xiao Bai had Xiao Qiu and the others form a group and patrol other areas.

She used training as an excuse to bring Aurora to the Wasteland District outside the city.

During this time, Xiao Qiu and the others mentioned wanting to be with Xiao Bai and Aurora, but since Aurora didn't seem to like interacting with Xiao Qiu the others, they kindly chose to separate.

This also gave Xiao Bai time to have individual 'special training' with Aurora here.

Of course, Xiao Bai didn't forget to pull Youyou over during this time, and as for the reason, Xiao Bai simply used Kelly as an excuse.

Tell Xiao Qiu and the others that Teacher Kelly is planning to give Youyou a good scolding... or something like that.

Xiao Qiu and the others easily believed Xiao Bai's words.

In this respect, Xiao Qiu and the others still have a certain level of trust in Xiao Bai.

Although Xiaobai summoned Aurora to provide cover for his exploration of the Erosion Form, Xiao Bai did not slack off in Aurora's training.

She truly activated Magic Barrier and engaged Aurora in battle.

Guiding the battle.

Let Aurora fight against Xiao Bai using the forms she currently possesses. This will not only increase her combat experience but also teach her how to control magic more precisely.

Xiao Bai originally planned to go to Kelly and Youyou after the battle with Aurora to ask how to activate the Erosion Form.

However, when Xiao Bai actually fought Aurora, he discovered that Aurora's power seemed to be much weaker than before.

"Is something on your mind?"

After a brief pause in the battle, Xiao Bai asked Aurora, who was standing still and catching her breath.

Aurora paused for a second, then responded with her usual cold snort:

"Who has something on their mind? Do I look like someone who would have something on their mind?"

"That means you've become weaker."

Xiao Bai said with certainty.

Aurora immediately exploded. "Who got weaker?!"

"Is something on your mind?"

Xiao Bai squinted at Aurora.

Aurora's mouth opened slightly, then she suddenly turned her head, crossed her arms, and said to Xiao Bai:

"... What does it matter to you whether I have something on my mind or not? You're not some old man..."

"So, if Fang Ming were here, you'd be willing to talk to him?"

"..."

Aurora immediately fell silent.

Xiao Bai looked intently at Aurora, unsure of what was on Aurora's mind, and unwilling to force her to reveal it.

Seeing that Aurora was unwilling to talk about it, Xiao Bai didn't ask any further.

She withdrew the barrier and said to Aurora:

"I don't know what you're thinking, but remember, we are Magical Girls, we are comrades. No matter what difficulties or troubles you encounter, we will be by your side."

Xiao Bai actually said something like "we are companions." If Yu Muqiu were here, he would probably jump for joy.

But after a moment of silence, Aurora suddenly asked:

"What if I'm not Magical Girls?"

"...!"

Xiao Bai paused slightly.

With just that one sentence, Xiao Bai instantly understood what Aurora was worried about.

She looked at Aurora and said earnestly, "Then we won't abandon you, because you are already our comrade."

"Tsk... that sounds nice..."

Aurora muttered something, then turned and walked to the side to rest, waving to Xiao Bai as she said:

"Training is over. Go do whatever you want. I'll wait for you over there."

"You guessed what I was going to do?"

"I don't know, how would I know what you're thinking with that icy face of yours? But I do know that you brought that naughty rabbit here not just for me to train."

Aurora snorted.

She just has a bad temper, she's not stupid. If it's just for Aurora's training, Xiao Bai doesn't need to bring Youyou along.

She definitely wants Youyou to do something.

As for what she would do, Aurora didn't know, but she would definitely avoid other Magical Girls, and even Fang Ming himself.

So after Aurora finished speaking, she added:

"Do whatever you want, don't worry, I won't tell anyone else, not even the old man."

Aurora casually ran to the side, found a rock on the ground to sit down, and started playing on her phone, ignoring Xiao Bai next to her.

Xiao Bai stood there, staring at Aurora for a long time without saying a word.

A Youyou voice came from behind her, saying:

"This child seems very smart."

"Um."

"So what exactly do you want from me?"

After playing the Youyou of an observer for half a day, Youyou finally voiced the question that had been bothering her.

Xiao Bai led Youyou and Aurora a little further away before picking up her phone and calling out to Kelly's clone inside, asking them:

"How do I activate the Erosion Form?"

"!"
