Chapter 354

"What?! Xiao Chun actually likes Fang Ming?!"

A gasp of surprise drew the attention of everyone in the class.

That's good now...

Now everyone in the class knows that Xiao Chun has someone she likes.

(Hahaha! Naturally dark-skinned!)

(Xiao Qiu was genuinely surprised, but she forgot that this was a secret to everyone else www)

(Xiaoxia is laughing so happily, she's almost laughing to tears.)

(Don't panic, Xiao Chun will punish her soon www)

(Hilarious, Magical Girls having another civil war! [just kidding])

"Laugh! I'll make you laugh! Laugh!!"

Below the Sky Screen, Xiao Chun, still angry, grabbed a cushion and started throwing it at Xiaoxia.

Xiaoxia, standing below the Sky Screen, couldn't help but laugh out loud. She even went so far as to defend herself, saying:

"Xiao Chun! You can't blame me for this, it was Xiao Qiu who was called out!"

Xiao Qiu: "?"

Xiao Chun wouldn't be fooled by Xiaoxia's few words. She patted Xiaoxia's back again and said to Xiaoxia:

"Xiao Qiu so innocent, how could she be wrong? So it must be your fault, there's no point in arguing!!"

"Waaaah! This is discrimination! Xiao Qiu, save me--!"

Xiao Chun and Chen Xiaoxia started playfully fighting.

Of course, Xiao Chun was just joking with Xiaoxia. After all, everyone knows who Xiao Chun likes now. It's just that Xiao Chun in the Sky Screen is being exposed to the other people in the Sky Screen. It has nothing to do with people in reality.

It was just that Xiaoxia was laughing so happily that Xiao Chun thought of 'punishing' her.

While the Magical Girls were making a ruckus, Xiao Bai, sitting in the office, had already handed over the leave requests of several Magical Girls to the school leaders.

Normally, Xiao Bai is not Xiao Qiu's homeroom teacher, so she has no right to make decisions for Xiao Qiu and her classmates.

But... there is magic, right?

With a few Suggestion, the school's higher-ups, being ordinary people, naturally wouldn't object to the Magical Girls' outing.

The next step is to choose a suitable location and then provide targeted training for Xiao Qiu and the others.

Xiao Bai has already made a plan; now all that's left is to wait for it to be implemented.

Setting the plan aside, Xiao Bai leaned back, looked at the white ceiling, raised her hand, and examined her right hand in front of her eyes.

Her current body is made of a doll.

Dongdong is in charge of supplying magic, while Xiao Bai's consciousness controls it. That's why Xiao Bai looks no different from an ordinary person.

But beneath this body lies a soul that is about to be Erosive Power erosion.

The effects of the Erosive Power were becoming increasingly severe. Xiao Bai didn't know how much longer she could hold on. Perhaps in the next battle, or the battle after that, she would no longer be herself.

Xiao Bai can do now is to train Xiao Qiu and the others until, even if something unexpected happens to Xiao Bai, they will be able to handle it smoothly.

"Xiao Bai... Xiao Bai...! You should take a look at this!"

As Xiao Bai stared at her palm in deep thought, she heard a faint voice in her ear.

The voice wasn't here, nor in Xiao Bai's office, but somewhere much farther away.

Beside Xiao Bai's true form.

Exhaling slowly, Xiao Bai closed its eyes as if dozing.

Her consciousness returned to her body.

In the secluded room, the slender and frail Xiao Bai was awakened by Stella. Stella picked up the remote control and turned on the monitor set up in the room.

Then she pointed to the content on the screen and said to Xiao Bai:

"There seems to be a new development in the Americas District."

As she spoke, Stella tapped on the content on the screen.

The video is very short, only about two minutes long, and the main location in the video is a slum in a large Americas District.

The person filming was a homeless man. Because he was running and filming at the same time, the video footage appeared quite chaotic, but it was still focused on a certain area.

That's a building.

A rare skyscraper in a slum.

Meanwhile, inside that skyscraper, two figures were engaged in battle.

One of them had the appearance of a lion and moved around outside the skyscraper like an orc, while the other was a petite girl covered in azure light.

The two fought outside the skyscraper.

Then, the petite Magical Girls was knocked away by the lion-like beastman. Her figure was smashed into the skyscraper, and then a powerful energy burst from the lion-beastman's mouth. The energy gathered and formed a straight line that pierced through the skyscraper, cutting it in two.

The sounds of terror, screams, explosions, and car horns mingled together in the video, creating a jumbled mess of noise that was difficult to distinguish.

The video became even more shaky, and then went dark.

"... Where did this come from?"

When the video ended, Xiao Bai asked Stella a question.

Stella explained:

"Your hacker friend sent this to me. Apparently, many people filmed this scene, but... most of the video footage was forcibly deleted by the local authorities."

"Is Luna alright?"

"She's fine. I had Aurora contact her earlier. She just suffered minor injuries and is otherwise alright. But the problem now is..."

Stella said earnestly to Xiao Bai, "It seems that the existence of Magical Girls has already been known to the people of this world."

"... They already knew."

Xiao Bai exhaled slowly, played the video again, and said to Stella, "They already knew when the Aurora Society started conducting human experiments."

The situation in the Central Continent District is currently unclear, but in the Americas District, the real power lies with those capital groups.

Therefore, when those capitalist groups became aware of the existence of Magical Girls, it meant that the governments there also became aware of Magical Girls existence.

There's nothing we can do about it.

"No, I'm not talking about high-ranking government officials," Stella said, pointing to the other bystanders in the video.

"I'm talking about them, these ordinary people. They must already know about the existence of Magical Girls."

Stella is right. We don't know about other places yet, but the place where Luna and that Lion Monster fought definitely had more than just the people filming the video and passersby who saw them.

Centered on the skyscraper where the two were fighting, the battle radiated outwards, and almost everyone who could see the skyscraper could see the Magical Girls and the monster.

Given the sheer size of the area, attempting to individually use Suggestion hypnosis to make each person forget the incident has become virtually impossible.

The existence of Magical Girls is gradually being revealed to the world.

Why didn't Luna activate the Magic Barrier?

When this was brought up, Xiao Bai asked Stella again.

Stella said seriously, "This is the second thing I want to talk about. That Lion Monster... something's not right. It seems to have the ability to ignore the effects of barriers. When Luna fought it, she tried to trap it inside the barrier, but it managed to escape in the end."

"Is it its own unique ability?"

"It's still uncertain... This is the first strange person to appear since that Doctor Freak."

Since defeating Avery, the Americas District has entered a period of stability; otherwise, Stella wouldn't have come to the Central Continent District.

This is the Aurora Society's first operation since then, and it seems to have brought Luna some trouble.

Xiao Bai had no doubt that Aurora Society come prepared; that strange person who could ignore the barrier's effects was very likely a test by Aurora Society the Magical Girls.

Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Theatrical Edition and Season 3: Chapter 384 Let's just kidnap the old man...

"Let Aurora go back... never mind, how far can the magic network in Central Continent District extend now?"

Xiao Bai asked Stella.

Stella tapped on another display screen, where a map zoomed in, outlining the current coverage area of the magical network.

Stella out her hand and gestured above it, saying:

"It can probably... cover this area... and beyond."

"... Choose a location between the Central Continent District and the Americas District, on the outskirts of the magic network's coverage, as the site for the upcoming special training."

Xiao Bai made the final decision.

The Magic Network currently being deployed in the Central Continent District is still in its early stages, so its coverage area is not very large. However, knowing the situation in the Americas District, Xiao Bai and Stella specifically chose an area closer to the Americas District when they were setting it up.

The furthest point it can currently extend to is the outer sea area of Central Continent District.

In that sea area, there are several unnamed islands that are not recorded on satellite maps. These islands are relatively close to the Americas District and can be used as training grounds for Magical Girls.

"You want Yu Muqiu and her team to provide support to the Americas District?"

Stella saw through Xiao Bai's thoughts.

Xiao Bai nodded gently and said, "With their help, Luna's pressure will be relieved a lot, and... Luna should also participate in this special training."

It would be convenient for Aurora to train with the Magical Girls of Central Continent District, but Luna cannot be excluded.

These are the Magical Girls we have right now, and each one of them is a crucial fighting force. Given the opportunity and time, they should all participate in this training camp.

After all... if the Demons really arrive, they won't give the Magical Girls any time to prepare.

But when this was brought up, Stella suddenly asked, "By the way, what is Aurora doing now?"

"In PE class."

Xiao Bai replied.

The camera then shifts to Aurora jogging in the school's sports field.

(I almost forgot, the Aurora Society in the Sky Screen hasn't been resolved yet.)

(I don't think there are any real-life Aurora Society, right?)

(But at least those groups associated with the Aurora Society have been eliminated and dismantled, and they dare not show their faces easily now.)

(There's no way around it; after all, the Aurora Society in the Sky Screen is a secretive organization, and nobody knows about their existence.)

(Hilarious! Luna is fighting monsters in the Americas District, while Aurora is enjoying a peaceful life here.)

(Luna: How could you be so selfish!)

(But even Aurora probably didn't expect the Aurora Society to cause trouble so quickly, right?)

(Brothers, I have a bad feeling. Don't forget those two Demons at the beginning. Aurora Society have attracted Demons here??)

(Shut your mouth!)

(... That's very possible! After all, the only ones who can put pressure on Xiao Qiu and the others right now are the Upper Demon!)

(Shut your mouths, you jinxes!!!)

It's not surprising that the Sky Screen Aurora Society cause trouble again.

Given the power and life-or-death obsession of those in power, it would be strange if they didn't cause trouble.

Even in the real world, if it weren't for the fact that the Magic Network now covers the entire globe and the Aurora Society's major bases have been largely wiped out by Magical Girls, they probably wouldn't have given up their pursuit of magical power.

What happened in the Sky Screen was entirely within expectations.

However, the Magical Girls hadn't considered that the Aurora Society attract Upper Demon.

Xiao Bai looked at Kelly and asked her:

"Could the eccentric members of the Aurora Society attract Demons?"

"..." Kelly replied with a serious expression, "If the 'traits' are the same and the corresponding Demons is nearby, then it's very likely!"

"The same 'traits'?" Aurora tilted her head in confusion.

Kelly nodded and said, "Yes, take the Aging Demon you defeated before as an example. The appearance of the Aging Demon was essentially just a coincidence. With the World Barrier still in place, the aura it emitted could not be transmitted to attract other Demons."
