The "Lively" Main Street / This Is Really Comfortable~
This is utterly outrageous, completely outrageous!
They actually eat snacks like they're meals?
Without much thought, once he came to his senses, he immediately picked out a few packets of his favorites to eat, along with a bottle of juice.
Damn, it's pretty good!
Nan Muya was somewhat surprised by this. As a fellow Astral Mark Girl, she would also stock up on some food for convenience and to deal with special situations, but she would never be as extravagant as Ling Lexuan, who had piled up snacks like a mountain.
She was certain that just what she saw now would take several truckloads to fill!
Oops! I accidentally poured too much!
Ling Lexuan realized that her hand was "accidentally" shaking. She lightly covered her cherry-like mouth, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on her lips. She quickly put the snack book away, otherwise it would block the street.
That's very impolite.
Of course, the main concern is that a passing ghost might steal the snacks, which would be even worse.
"Sister Muya, why don't you pick something too?"
"Uh... no need, Sister Le Xuan, I brought plenty myself." Nan Muya quickly waved her hand, feeling a little embarrassed.
Finally, in just five minutes, the group arrived at the entrance of a shop.
In fact, when we first arrived in this area, we could see that many small shops were open for business. But if we looked inside, they were either pitch black or had pairs of terrifying eyes flashing brightly. It was incredibly exciting. Fortunately, nothing dared to go near them.
Perhaps because of the two Astral Mark Girl, Nan Muya and her companion, they instinctively exerted a "bloodline suppression" on these supernatural creatures, preventing them from approaching.
After all, aside from a few hotheads, there's no supernatural being in a hurry to die.
"Little sister Le Xuan, what's wrong? Weren't you looking for treasure? I didn't expect those monsters to open a shop too. We'll just rob them, that's it! What can they do to stop you?"
Seeing Nan Muya and Ling Lexuan suddenly stop, Ling Yue walked forward nonchalantly, wanting to find out what was going on.
I subconsciously looked up and saw a finely carved wooden plaque hanging above the shop's entrance. It looked quite elegant, but there was nothing particularly special about it.
He had seen the most luxurious palace decorations, but none could compare to this elegant and refreshing style, so he was naturally not surprised.
"Elf Treehouse? What's that?"
[Img=700,974]htt Belatedly realizing~☆
Chapter Seventy-Two: The "Lively" Street
The shop's name is simply "The Elf Treehouse," and a sign above the door indicates that it is open for business, but it's unclear what it does.
But this fairyland-like setting is completely different from the gloomy environment next to it. It looks full of spring and is the most likely place to find treasure compared to other places!
There was only a fence gate slightly ajar at the entrance, with a string of wisteria-shaped wind chimes hanging on it. The view was filled with lush greenery, and the vitality seemed to fill even the air with green.
Ling Lexuan looked around with a curious expression, her curiosity piqued.
They had never seen such a beautiful house since morning.
The treasure is inside; could it be guarded by some reclusive master?
Nan Muya, who was standing nearby, took a bite of the Holiyo chocolate bread, rolled her eyes, and suddenly suggested, "Le Xuan, this seems to be another shop, currently open for business. It's probably guarded, but I wonder if it's one of those ghosts. Shall we go in and take a look? With our strength, dealing with it shouldn't be too difficult."
"That's right, hehe, no matter how much they try to play tricks, how could they possibly outwit us Astral Mark Girl?" Ling Lexuan suddenly turned around with one hand on her hip, her big eyes smiling, charming, and alluring, the corners of her mouth curving upwards in a perfect, confident crescent shape!
Just then, from within the mist not far behind them, a sound came out, and the figures of four people could be vaguely seen.
They had already reached the edge of the Central Avenue. Just considering the distance, an ordinary person would definitely die if they went in. How could anyone dare to go in?
How could they even get this far?
The 'Soul Lamp' can only suppress supernatural entities of the Third Order and below at most. In this place, there are already powerful Fourth Order evil spirits. Even if they were lucky enough not to encounter them, a group of low-ranking supernatural entities would swarm them, and a single lamp wouldn't be able to do anything about it. So why weren't they attacked?
"Brother Zhang is awesome! Those people were definitely not ordinary. We followed them in and we didn't encounter any monsters!"
"That's right, don't you know who your brother is? You know, there are very few resources for exploring the inner workings of the Ping'an District. If we can sell our firsthand information, we can definitely make a fortune! Then we'll be set for life!"
"Brother Zhang is absolutely right~ But you've been leading the way for us the whole time, you must be exhausted, right? I feel so sorry for you~"
After a few words, the man called Brother Zhang couldn't help but feel a little smug. He shook his head and said, "Indeed, we've only gotten this far thanks to those three. But haven't you noticed? The clothes of the two girls, and their magical swordsmanship—they're the legendary Astral Mark Girl! They'll easily take down any monster! And that guy wielding the greatsword isn't ordinary either. Clinging to their coattails is definitely the right thing to do!"
"Regardless, Brother Zhang was right. We've been following them and recording quite a bit along the way. Once we get out, we'll be on the front page tomorrow!"
"That's right!... Wait, the light's about to go out. Let's turn it back on quickly, or we'll really be stuck here."
"OK, it's on, it's on..."
A group of young men and women, dressed in uniforms from Penguin Headlines Publishing House, were chatting happily, managing to adjust their mood by talking together.
They may have seen many of those monster corpses along the way—bloody and terrifying—but since they were all dead, they wouldn't be so afraid if they treated them as specimens.
After all, some of them are journalists, and as those on the front lines, having extraordinary courage is the most basic requirement.
As they drew closer, Ling Yue stopped noticing them and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Before he could even speak, Ling Lexuan had already pulled Nan Muya into the treehouse.
Ring ring--
The crisp sound of wind chimes rang out at the entrance. Shu Momo, who was engrossed in reading a novel on the front desk, immediately looked up, yawning and looking resentful.
It's only been half an hour since she reopened after her course ended, and people are already coming?
Can't we just let people get some rest?
We haven't even had lunch yet, couldn't we come later?
"Welcome to the Elf Treehouse. If you have something to say, say it; otherwise, get lost!"
Without hesitation, Shu Momo climbed up from the chair and casually called out.
Then, helplessly, he turned his head and happened to meet the eyes of the person who had just arrived—no, there were two of them?
"Astral Mark Girl?"
"Humans??"
Shu Momo and Ling Lexuan's eyes met, and they were both stunned.
What's going on here?
Beside her, Nan Muya scratched her head, then looked down at herself and Ling Lexuan's JK uniforms, which were exclusive to Astral Mark Girl. It seemed that it wasn't wrong!
But how could they actually see living people in this place?
"Muya, Le Xuan, how's it going? It looks like there are four people outside, they all seem to be ordinary people who came with us... Wait, are there people inside?"
Ling Yue was the last to walk in, and upon seeing this peculiar scene, his expression showed a hint of surprise.
"Eh? Looks like you're together, right? I didn't expect anyone else to come here." Shu Momo recognized them and seemed a little surprised, but still introduced herself, "Feel free to let me know if you need anything. I'm an employee at this teahouse. We offer a variety of services including life advice, casual conversation, psychological counseling, and civil dispute resolution. I have a menu of our services if you're interested."
"A teahouse??" Ling Lexuan's brow twitched, her expression stiffening for a moment. She sensed something was amiss. "No, Miss, we actually came here to find treasure. We followed the Treasure-Seeking Disc and ended up here... Aren't you one of those people?"
"What are you saying? There are plenty of good things here, but what does that have to do with you? If you're not going to order a package, then hurry up and leave! Do you really think that just because you're at the Low Tier of Star Engraving, you can do whatever you want here? If you leave now, you still have a chance." Shu Momo's little face was full of anger, and she muttered with great dissatisfaction.
After patiently dismissing her, she continued reading her novel, almost losing her temper and wanting to swear.
These days, who would dare to come to Magical Witch's house and steal her treasure?
Isn't that like turning on a light in the toilet—asking for trouble?
Otherwise, how could anyone do such a thing?
Let's get rid of them while Mu Xi is still upstairs~ Otherwise, with just these little kids, especially the Astral Mark Girl, it's hard to say whether they'll even leave!
Before Ling Lexuan could speak again, Ling Yue, who was standing beside her, couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward, raised his greatsword with a clang, and stood it in front of him, saying domineeringly, "Little sister, since this shop isn't yours, it shouldn't be a problem for us to explore it, right?"
[Img=400,400]htt [img=700,980]htt No comments~
Chapter 73 This is quite comfortable~
"Can't you understand me? I told you to leave, so hurry up and leave! You still want to explore? Don't blame me if you can't get out of here later!" Shu Momo's rosy cheeks puffed out like a ripe peach.
She thought she had a pretty good mindset, but she still couldn't help but get angry at these people!
Why do some people never learn their lesson until they see the coffin?
"Well..."
Sensing something was amiss, Nan Muya took a few steps back. After all, the people who could survive here were no ordinary individuals. If the owner of this shop was some high-level Destiny Engraver, they would definitely be in deep trouble.
Ling Lexuan felt her head buzzing. How could she have run for so long only to encounter such a thing?
She exchanged a glance with Nan Muya, and after a moment of regret, she also felt quite embarrassed and sorry.
How could this be? She spent hundreds of points to redeem this Treasure-Seeking Disc in the Fate Mall, and now she's found herself at someone else's shop?!
"Mo Mo, what happened? Have we had guests?"
Suddenly, a lazy voice came from the top of the stairs, and everyone was startled and turned to look.
Then a cute, adorable girl in a floral dress, like a fairy from a dream, slowly walked down the steps.
She held a plate of shredded pork and egg fried rice in her hands, her face showing languor and weariness, like a noble Persian cat, yet giving people a very kind and friendly feeling.
Mu Xi smiled and glanced at Ling Lexuan and the other two. Although she looked all smiles, the three of them couldn't help but shiver. They felt a chill run down their spines, as if they were being stared at by a ferocious wolf, and their hair stood on end.
Who is this awesome person?
It actually comes with its own oppressive aura?
Is there no reasoning involved?
Ling Yue couldn't help but secretly swallow, silently thinking to himself, "This girl's aura is terrifyingly powerful?"
Could this be the legendary high-ranking Fate Girls?
Hiss~ I can't afford to mess with them.
After all, this kind of being is different from those guys outside. Dealing with ordinary nobodys by finding someone to teach them a lesson is fine, but going up against the Destiny Engraver is certain death!
It would take at least Great Grandmaster Tier figure to contend with them, right?
"Heh, you think I didn't hear what you just said? You're all covered in treasures, why would you need to come all the way here?"
Mu Xi walked gracefully and unhurriedly to Shu Momo, poured herself a pot of tea, and ignored everyone else, displaying a very dignified and poised demeanor.
Elegance is timeless!
"Mo Mo, don't you know the rules of the store? I've told you so many times, everyone except the customers who come to give money is kicked out, what are you afraid of?" Turning her head, Mu Xi reached out and rubbed Shu Momo's head, feeling speechless.
Her warm breath tickled Shu Momo's face, making the girl blush and lower her head shyly, letting out an "Oh."
The atmosphere was a little awkward!
Ling Lexuan and Nan Muya have realized that their opponent is Magical Girls, and a very powerful one at that. If they were to fight, they might really suffer a terrible death!
Why not apologize, offer some compensation, and leave? Perhaps we could explore somewhere else?
Yes! A young lady should be able to bend and stretch as she pleases!
After thinking for a moment, Ling Lexuan's watery eyes immediately curved into crescent moons, revealing her pearly white teeth as she smiled charmingly and said, "I'm sorry, we've realized our mistake. Could you let us leave, miss?"
"Sure, each person pays 500 points, and I can escort you to the door." Mu Xi smiled and took out the magic necklace, her meaning already clear.
It's obvious they're trying to steal your points.
What can you do?
"This... this is too much! Isn't this stealing other people's points?" Ling Lexuan's smile froze. She had finally saved up so many points and hadn't even had a chance to spend them properly, and now they were all gone?
Who can I complain to about this?
I should have run away earlier, sob sob sob~
"It's robbery, we robbed you, we did something bad, and you still want to resist?" Mu Xi stroked her chin, a smile playing on her lips.
But Ling Lexuan and the other two clearly saw that behind those eyes that were flashing with an inexplicable light, there was also a hint of cunning, which made them feel a chill down their spines. Even Shu Momo couldn't help but feel a pang of fear.
It's here! It's here!
Sister Mu Xi's kind, gentle, generous, and dignified method of comforting!
