Chapter 389
Yu Muqiu muttered to himself, and a second later, he suddenly turned around and looked around.
Her pink eyes shimmered with magical light, and reconnaissance magic spread outwards from her, searching for any possible signs of life.
The laptop was still warm, proving that someone had used it before!
There is only one person who can use the computer here!
Xiao Bai!
She didn't leave; she's nearby!
Having guessed this, Yu Muqiu used his reconnaissance magic to try and find the hidden Xiao Bai.
She hadn't misused her magic; in the second second after casting the spell, Yu Muqiu's gaze fell on the bookshelf in the bedroom.
Clearly, she had already sensed the existence of the secret room!
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Theatrical Edition and Season 3: Chapter 421 We Read the Script in Advance
The secret room that Xiao Bai set up was actually enchanted to prevent the Magical Girls from finding it.
Under normal circumstances, no matter who comes to use reconnaissance magic, they will not be able to find the secret room hidden between the two rooms.
In fact, if Xiao Qiu hadn't awakened her Shining 2 form, Xiao Qiu wouldn't have been able to detect this place.
However, Yu Muqiu has now basically mastered the Shining 2 form, which has further enhanced her magic power and the accuracy of her reconnaissance magic.
So she noticed the awkwardness between the two bedrooms, the mezzanine.
And Yu Muqiu was absolutely certain that Xiao Bai was in that secret hidden room!
"Xiao Bai..."
Walking to the bookshelf, Yu Muqiu raised his hand, intending to find the mechanism to open the secret room, but for some reason, Yu Muqiu stopped when his hand was only a few centimeters away from the bookshelf.
Her hand hovered in the air, then slowly retracted.
Gazing at the bookshelf, Yu Muqiu could almost see Xiao Bai, bewildered in the secret room, about to escape again.
She remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking:
"Xiao Bai, you're in there... right?"
"..."
There was no response from behind the bookshelf.
But Yu Muqiu was certain that Xiao Bai was inside.
After waiting two seconds without a response, Yu Muqiu suddenly laughed. She turned and leaned against the bookshelf, then slowly sat down on the floor, speaking as if chatting casually, or perhaps talking to herself:
"Come to think of it, we've rarely had time alone together like this."
"..."
There was still no sound from the sealed room.
Yu Muqiu didn't mind, and she continued:
"After all, Xiao Bai, you've been avoiding us all along. It was like this from the very beginning. You refused to communicate with us, and instead tried to persuade us not to become Magical Girls. Even after you became friends with us, you were always alone..."
"I'm not blaming Xiao Bai, quite the opposite. Sometimes I think... Xiao Bai, you're so cool. You do whatever you want, don't care about anyone's opinion, have your own goals, and know what you should do."
"I admire you so much, and without realizing it, I've started to depend on you."
"I want to fight alongside you, I want to do fun things with you, I want to become even closer friends with you, just like with Xiaoxia and Xiao Chun, but..."
Yu Muqiu turned her head, leaning against the bookshelf as if she were leaning against Xiao Bai's back, and whispered to Xiao Bai, "... But, I'm gradually realizing... maybe... maybe we can't be friends."
Yu Muqiu paused here.
After a long while, perhaps a dozen seconds, or perhaps several tens of minutes, a cold and somewhat muffled sound suddenly came from the other end of the bookshelf:
"... Why?"
"Xiao Bai, you're willing to respond to me now?" Yu Muqiu said happily.
There was silence again from the other side of the bookshelf.
Yu Muqiu wasn't angry. She answered Xiao Bai's question:
"Because I discovered that there has always been such a person who protects us in her own way, who takes care of us as an elder. Sometimes she gets angry when we do something wrong, and sometimes she worries when we are in danger."
"She has always been... always by our side... standing in front of us in a way none of us could have imagined, keeping all the dangers out."
"Xiao Bai, do you know... who I'm talking about?"
"..."
It's okay if you don't answer me, it doesn't matter if you deny it, none of that matters.
"The important thing is... now it's our turn to protect you, Xiao Bai."
"Just like you used to take care of us, it's our turn to take care of you now. So, Xiao Bai... come out. Don't Pain anymore, okay? I hate that. I don't want anyone I love to leave my side, especially you, Xiao Bai. No... I should..."
Yu Muqiu closed her eyes, gently shook her head, and changed how she addressed Xiao Bai.
The name was about to be uttered when, at that very moment, a powerful surge of magic swept over them!
"!!!"
The magic surged from a certain direction. Sensing this evil and ominous magic, Yu Muqiu instantly stood up and looked in the direction from which the magic was coming.
This sudden magical power interrupted her conversation with Xiao Bai and forced Yu Muqiu to transform into Magical Girls to find the source of the magic.
"It seems... we can only stop here for now." Yu Muqiu's expression turned serious. She instantly switched into Magical Girl Form and said to the silver-haired girl behind the bookshelf:
"Xiao Bai, there are some things... let's talk about them after I get back. Until then, please don't make a move, absolutely... absolutely don't make a move! Otherwise, I'll get angry, I really will!"
"..."
"Answer me! I need to hear your answer!"
Yu Muqiu said firmly.
Judging from her expression, if Xiao Bai doesn't agree, she'll probably smash down the wall immediately, grab Xiao Bai, and lock him up somewhere else.
Seemingly sensing Yu Muqiu's determination, Xiao Bai sighed and said slowly:
"Okay, I promise you."
"Yes, I believe you!"
Relieved by Xiao Bai's response, Yu Muqiu left Xiao Bai's bedroom and flew towards the source of the magical impact.
(Oh dear! What is Xiao Qiu trying to say?!)
(The answer should be obvious... but it's so frustrating that it has to get stuck here at such a crucial moment!)
(Yes, after all, if Sky Screen doesn't provide evidence, no matter how heated our discussion is, it's all just speculation.)
(What are you talking about? Did I miss something? It seems like you all already know everything?)
(We've already seen the script!)
(What the hell is this script?)
Some viewers in the live chat guessed what Xiao Qiu was going to say, but others were still clueless and didn't understand what the discussion in the live chat was about.
This includes Chen Xiaoxia and her friends.
On the island, Chen Xiaoxia turned to look at Xiao Qiu beside her, nudged her with her elbow, and asked:
"So what exactly do you want to say to Xiao Bai?"
"I don't know..."
A clear sense of bewilderment shone in Yu Muqiu's pink eyes.
She wasn't Yu Muqiu from the Sky Screen, so how could she possibly know what the person in the Sky Screen wanted to say?
Although they are the same person, due to their different experiences, the current Yu Muqiu is completely unable to keep up with the thought process of her counterpart in the Sky Screen!
"Tsk, what a pity. If only I knew about this from the Sky Screen, I could definitely glean something from her reaction."
Chen Xiaoxia sighed with great regret.
She seemed quite certain that she could understand herself within the Sky Screen.
[--Ten minutes ago.]
In the seas where no one has been found.
Demons, like a mermaid, swam in the water.
She held a Nightmare Seed in her hand, Nightmare Seed faintly emitted a light, echoing the Nightmare Seed within her body.
This is Mermaid Demon.
Or perhaps it should be called a 'Siren' Demons.
She was born from people's fear of 'sirens' and 'sea monsters', and because she had whale genes in her body, she already had near- Middle Rank strength before transforming into Demons.
After absorbing negative emotions and transforming into Demons, the Siren Demon became a true Middle Rank!
But unlike other Demons, she did not cause chaos in the world or create trouble for the Magical Girls.
She has a very important task on her shoulders.
That is to use the resonance of the Nightmare Seed Blood Demon completely lock onto this world and truly descend into this world!
That's right, those hundred-odd Demons who wreak havoc all over the world are just cannon fodder to cover up the true purpose of the Blood Demon.
Unbeknownst to any of the Magical Girls, the Siren Demon, carrying the newly hatched Nightmare Seed, arrived at a place unprotected by a magic circle and secretly began preparations to summon the Blood Demon.
And now... the Siren Demon is almost successful, just one last step away!
"Destruction this world... Blood Demon Lord, I'm willing... I'm willing to give you everything!!"
Beneath the sea, the Siren Demon control countless marine creatures, making them fight each other in the water, using their blood to set up magic circles to summon the Blood Demon.
But the blood of sea creatures alone is clearly not enough. If the Blood Demon wants to truly perceive this world, she needs blood that is more magical.
At this moment, the only person here who can provide blood imbued with magical power is the Siren Demon.
Therefore, the final step of this magic circle was the self-sacrifice of the Siren Demon!
"Come, my lord!! Use my blood to purify this filthy and chaotic world!!!"
The Siren Demon's eyes were filled with fanaticism. After shouting those words, she threw herself into the magic circle that was about to take shape before her.
The final piece of the puzzle was put together, and the magic circle was fully formed. The blood containing all the magic power of the Mid-Tier Demon mixed with the blood of countless sea creatures and was injected into the magic circle!
Boom!!!!
The next instant, a soaring red light pierced through the seabed, rising from the deepest part of the ocean, breaking through the surface, soaring into the clouds, and landing directly on the outermost World Barrier!
Waves of magical energy rippled outwards, and in that instant, all the Magical Girls and all those who possessed magic noticed the spreading magic and the rising red pillar of light!
Among these countless people, besides the usual Magical Girls, there were also several unfamiliar girls.
There was an orange-haired girl from the Eastern Ocean District attending class, and a blonde girl running on the playground at the same school.
There's also a girl with long, straight black hair who writes at home and feels the atmosphere outside.
There was also a gray-haired girl lying in the hospital room, looking out.
These new characters, who were given close-up shots, are undoubtedly girls with Magical Girls potential, but at this moment, Yu Muqiu and the others neither notice them nor could they possibly notice them.
All the eyes of the formal Magical Girls were focused on the thick pillar of blood light.
All the Magical Girls' expressions turned serious and solemn.
They all knew it very well.
A great battle is about to begin!
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Movie and Season 3: Chapter 422 The Blood Demon Returns!
"It seems this is the Blood Demon's backup plan."
At the Witch's Tea Party, Lesos said something meaningful.
Fang Ming stared intently at the Sky Screen, pondering how he would handle the situation if he were in that predicament.
After thinking carefully for two seconds, Fang Ming realized that the Blood Demon's final move in the Sky Screen was inevitable.
Because many parts of the Sky Screen are not as perfect as they are in reality.
