The Aurora Society's New Tactic

Xiao Bai squinted slightly and turned to look at Murong Xiaochun.

Xiao Chun's expression remained gentle, but she seemed to emanate a faint aura of blackness and resentment, a sense of oppression that even made Xiao Bai feel somewhat uneasy.

Song Niandong pressed down on her wizard's hat, clutched the Book of Friends tightly, looked this way and then this way again. When she noticed Xiao Bai's gaze coming her way, she felt like she had found a savior and quickly ran towards Xiao Bai.

"Sister Xiao Bai!" Song Niandong threw herself into Xiao Bai's arms, looked up at Xiao Bai and said, "Sister Xiao Chun seems a little scary..."

"Dongdong!"

Upon hearing Song Niandong's words, Xiao Chun immediately became indignant. "What do you mean I feel a little scared! I didn't do anything to you, and... we're about to fight, don't get too close to Xiao Bai, it'll hinder her from performing her best!"

Xiao Chun spoke very seriously, and her reason sounded reasonably acceptable.

But Song Niandong just winked at her and then buried her head in Xiao Bai's chest again.

"!!!"

Seeing Song Niandong and Xiao Bai's intimate contact, Xiao Chun felt her blood pressure rise again.

The biggest threat right now is clearly Aurora! Yet you're always trying to oppose me! Shouldn't we be on the same side?!

Xiao Chun really wanted to say this to Song Niandong.

But upon closer reflection, it seems she and Song Niandong are not really on the same side.

Song Niandong only wanted to be Fang Ming and Xiao Bai's younger sister, unlike Xiao Chun and Aurora, who always wanted to be her sister-in-law.

Perhaps for Song Niandong, as long as her brother Fang Ming isn't taken away, she can accept it no matter who becomes Fang Ming's girlfriend, Xiao Chun or Aurora.

Judging from the recent covert clashes between Xiao Chun and Song Niandong... Xiao Chun is clearly a greater threat to her!

Therefore, it's understandable that Song Niandong is behaving this way now.

"Hmph, boring." Aurora snorted coldly without saying a word, only stomping her toes on the ground to show her inner irritation.

She didn't care about Xiao Bai and Song Niandong's relationship, since she didn't know Xiao Bai's true identity.

What Aurora cares about is having her feelings made public by the Sky Screen Curtain and known to this group of Magical Girls.

She didn't see the uncle again tonight, and she didn't know how he was reacting. The Magical Girls were also giving her strange looks, which made Aurora very unhappy.

She didn't want to stay here for a second longer; she wanted to finish the fight quickly and then go back to see the old man's reaction.

So after she finished speaking, she decisively walked to the edge of the coastline and asked Xiao Bai:

"No matter what, we need to get to the island first, right? What are the coordinates? I'm coming over now!"

Aurora couldn't wait any longer. Xiao Bai gently pushed Song Niandong away and said to her:

"Don't rush, we need to wait for Dongdong to call out her friends before we can sneak over quietly."

"Friend...?"

Aurora frowned and looked at Song Niandong.

Xiao Bai gently pushed Dongdong away and looked down at her, saying, "Dongdong, it's your turn to shine."

"Um!"

Dongdong had a good sense of priorities.

Hearing Xiao Bai say that, she no longer coveted Xiao Bai's warm and soft chest. She took a few steps back, held the Magical Girls in her left hand, stretched her right hand towards the sea, and softly called out:

"Come out, Wells!"

A purple magic circle Shine on the sea surface, and a submarine model painted with purple patterns appeared at the center of the magic circle.

The magic circle passed through it, and in the blink of an eye, the submarine model transformed into a giant submarine several meters long, crashing onto the sea surface with a loud bang.

After finishing all that, Dongdong turned to Xiao Bai seeking praise.

Xiao Bai didn't hold back his praise, giving Dongdong a thumbs up and saying:

"Great job, Dongdong."

Dongdong lowered his head shyly, his face showing a mixture of embarrassment and pride.

"Wow! What a huge submarine! Dongdong, that's amazing! This is much more impressive than the big Toy Bear we used to have!"

Chen Xiaoxia then offered her praise, before leaping onto the submarine and turning to the others, saying, "What are you all standing there for? Get on!"

Xiao Bai nodded to everyone. "Let's go up."

Aurora also stood on the submarine, her right foot stomping twice, making a metallic clanging sound, then she turned to Xiao Bai and asked:

"Can't we just fly there? Even if we go underwater, our speed will be faster than a regular submarine, right?"

"You said it yourself, it's an 'ordinary submarine'," Youyou chimed in, acting as the explainer.

"Wells is one of Dongdong's 'Three Friends of Land, Sea, and Air'. He has the power of Lesser Demons, and he comes with radar shielding, underwater invisibility, high-speed underwater travel, and most importantly, magic shielding ability.

"Although they are weaker than Demons of the same level, they are the least likely to be detected in the sea. Otherwise, why do you think Dongdong would have summoned Wells?"

Song Niandong's strength is currently at Lower Rank, the same as Aurora and Luna.

However, in terms of practicality, neither Aurora's magic nor Luna's magic can compare to hers.

Because she can cultivate her own 'summons' and collect all the items she considers friends into her Book of Friends for her to use.

So, a long time ago, Fang Ming had her cultivate some 'friends' who weren't particularly strong but had many functions.

Submarines are one of them.

"... My strength is currently insufficient to fight alongside everyone, so... this is the only way I can help you all."

Dongdong said, quite embarrassed.

The Book of Friends is actually limited.

She can only cultivate a maximum of three beings at the Mid-Tier Demon rank.

However, if you want to cultivate the strongest one, you can only cultivate one at most.

For Fang Ming's 'Dream Training Plan', Song Niandong had poured all her magic power into Nicole, so all she had left were her 'friends' with Lower Rank -level power.

This level is worlds apart from Xiao Qiu and the others.

This made Dongdong feel quite embarrassed.

But Aurora's lips twitched involuntarily upon hearing this.

Insufficient strength...?

According to the Demons ranking system provided by the Sky Screen, my current power is only at the Lower Rank...

So, a mere submarine is considered to be on par with our own strength?

So what is the purpose of my being here?

Aurora, the only true 'junior' among them and the weakest, was starting to not want to stay with this group anymore.

That being said, they are clearly enemies from the Americas District, enemies of mine, so what are you Magical Girls seniors doing here?!

This is really annoying!

Feeling her pride wounded, Aurora climbed into the submarine with a stern face.

After looking around and confirming that everyone else was alright, Xiao Bai slowly nodded and said to the group:

"Set off."

Chapter 247 The Aurora Society's New Tactics

There are actually only three main bases for the Aurora Society.

That might not be the most accurate way to put it.

To put it conservatively, in the eyes of Dr. Bauer, the head of this main base, there are only three main bases for the Aurora Society.

Of the three bases, Dr. Bauer only knew the location of the current base. As for the remaining two bases, he only knew that they existed, but did not know their exact locations.

In order to avoid exposing the secrets of the other two bases, even communication between them basically has to go through several layers of relays in other places to ensure that no additional networks are connected before it can begin.

The reason for such strict security measures is to prevent the Magical Girls from finding their location.

After all, the Aurora Society is now a pariah on a global scale, hated by everyone.

Fortunately, when the "spin-off" trailer was first released, Aurora Society had already made preparations and began transferring its internal assets.

The Aurora Society, as it appears to be, is merely a puppet, an empty shell. Its true roots are still embedded within the Federation.

Even so, the recent Aurora Society has suffered enormous losses.

The few groups used as puppets on the periphery have been divided up by other large groups. Although those peripheral groups were just shells used to shed their skins, they still had some substance.

Otherwise, no one would believe that those groups are members of the Aurora Society.

Two months is far from enough time for them to completely transfer their internal assets, and now they are almost cut off from external funding.

Even because of the existence of that Magical Creatures that wields Data Magic, they dare not transfer cash on a large scale.

The laboratory's progress has been slowed by insufficient funding, and Dr. Bauer has not been to the lab to conduct experiments for several days.

One reason is insufficient resources; the other is that the higher-ups intend to review the development of the spin-off to determine future research directions.

"Tsk, the higher-ups are scared."

Sitting in his office, sipping coffee, Bauer stared at the recorded broadcast of the spin-off on his computer screen and muttered to himself.

That's right, the higher-ups are afraid of Magical Girls. They're afraid the Magical Girls will discover them, and they're afraid their trump cards won't work on the Magical Girls.

They were more afraid of losing their lives.

The other Magical Girls were alright, whether it was the Magical Girls from the Central Continent District led by Yu Muqiu, or Aurora and Luna from the Americas District.

They were just children, and had not experienced anything too cruel, nor had they truly experienced the harshness of the world. They still held hope and love for the world. If they earnestly pleaded and willingly repented, they might forgive them.

But Xiao Bai is different.

Compared to other Magical Girls whose origins are very clear and who have a 'contract' process, Xiao Bai's identity is unknown and mysterious.

Who her true identity is, is unknown.

How she became Magical Girls is unknown.

Why she can still rival Magical Girls in their Shining Form without activating it is also unknown!

Even if it's revealed now that Xiao Bai might be Fang Ming's sister.

But... what can we do?

Fang Ming's life story is traceable. From his birth to his rise to fame, and now to his status as the world-renowned "national cousin," his entire journey can be traced.

They could find out everything about him, including his experiences learning various skills and fighting techniques, down to the smallest detail.

However, even after thoroughly checking Fang Ming's resume, they couldn't find any trace of Xiao Bai!

It's as if Xiao Bai doesn't even exist in this world; he's a complete fabrication!

That would be fine.

The key point is that Xiao Bai is different from the other Magical Girls.

She is calm and ruthless. She will not hesitate to kill her enemies. Just look at the behavior on the Sky Screen. Once she has identified someone as an enemy, even if they are human, she will never let them go!

Where can you find Magical Girls like this?!

Therefore, it is understandable that the higher-ups of the Aurora Society are afraid of Magical Girls.

Bauer was the same, but he knew that things had already come to this point, and it was impossible to expect the Magical Girls to forgive them after everything was exposed.

It's better to just see things through to the end!

"Furthermore, it's not like there's no way to deal with Magical Girls."

Bauer gently blew on the steam rising from his coffee and sipped it slowly.

Although the Magical Girls pose a great threat, they have nothing to do with Bauer right now.

The promised transportation resources from above will take some time to arrive. During this period, Bauer just needs to stay in the lab and rest.

After all, Magical Girls can't just come knocking on your door, can they?

Hahaha...

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Bauer's laughter suddenly stopped, and the screams outside the door made him jump up from his seat.
