Ruoyun poked her head out of the water and gasped for breath.
After looking around and making sure he had shaken off the people from the Old World, he immediately swam to shore.
Caught off guard by the magical contamination from the grayish-white Remnants, she was nearly captured.
Fortunately, Ruoyun's training during this period had already taught her how to plan various contingency plans.
Beforehand, throw the already triggered trash bombs at the alley entrance, and also bury magic bombs in the trash heaps inside the alley, detonating them when the opponent isn't paying attention.
The second wand read the card [ Star Pattern Descent: The Invisible Chameleon's Invisible Descent], deceiving the members of the Old World, and hid in the sea.
This allowed her to escape successfully.
In the past, she would never have been able to do it alone.
After climbing ashore, Ruoyun rested for a while and took a deep breath.
The people of the Old World were far more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
There are even magical girls who can transform using Remnants.
Not only does it possess the power of a magical girl, but it can also use its Remnants to interfere with the magical equipment and powers of normal magical girls.
As the Holy Church Walker said, the version has indeed been updated.
The enemy's level is far beyond what the Witch Association and Calamity Beast of the past could compare to.
Even with thorough preparation, she almost messed up.
We need to be more careful...
Just as I was thinking of contacting other people, I suddenly discovered that all the communicators were out of service.
Ruoyun raised her head and looked around.
Docks, high-rise buildings, structures, billboards.
All the scenes are reversed.
Welcome to the Land of Mirrors.
Clutching the Miracle Seed tightly in her hand, Ruoyun suddenly turned around.
A white-haired, red-eyed girl was smiling at her.
"It's been a long time since we last met."
"I don't remember us knowing each other."
"You stole many things from our Land of Mirrors from the Mental Image Remnants."
Ruoyun narrowed her eyes, " The Prince of the Land of Mirrors?"
"I'm glad you still remember me."
The Prince stood up and walked over. "Although I initially wanted to annihilate your Holy Church Demon Squad, I've changed my mind."
"Why?"
"Because I don't believe we are enemies." The Prince toned down his arrogance. "We have no reason to be hostile. The Land of Mirrors currently has no plans to attack this world. On the contrary, other Old World are ambitious. You should have heard what those people said earlier; they want to harm this world."
Ruoyun felt a chill run down her spine. Had the other party been monitoring both sides all along?
"So, I think we can cooperate." The Prince slightly raised his chin, his uncontrollable arrogance radiating once more. " The Holy Church's Demon Squad, since you can take on missions from others, you can naturally take on missions from me, right?"
Ruoyun tilted her head, "Why are you so confident?"
"Judging from your acquisition of the Land of Mirrors's artifacts from the Mental Image Remnants, and your recent inquiries about the Land of Mirrors's technology in South China, the Holy Church is very interested in our Land of Mirrors's technology. Am I right?"
The Prince sat on a worn-out white plastic chair at the dock, yet he looked as if he were sitting on a throne, exuding an air of nobility.
"In exchange for the technology of my Land of Mirrors, I hope you can do me a small favor. I believe you won't refuse."
"As expected of a ruler, he can accurately see through our needs." Ruoyun put away the communicator. "I've heard the legends of the Mirror Kingdom, especially about its prince, who is incredibly wealthy, extravagant, and always disdainful of his partners."
The Prince's proud brows furrowed slightly.
"They always viciously throw money in the faces of their allies to humiliate them."
Ruoyun smiled slightly, "As royalty, I suppose the Prince and princess would be happy to humiliate our Holy Church in the same way, as a token of your sincerity?"
The Prince's proud brows relaxed. "Clearly, the rumors you've heard are wrong. My Land of Mirrors would never engage in such a nouveau riche-like and rude act as throwing money in the faces of our allies. We have always shown the utmost respect to our excellent partners."
She shifted her legs, still clad in white stockings, to the other side, casually clapped her hands, and a bank card appeared out of thin air in front of Ruoyun.
"What's wrong with bestowing upon me a descendant of the bloodline that flowed out of the Land of Mirrors?"
Ruoyun's expression remained unchanged. "I know your methods; the copied bank cards won't work."
"There's 100,000 inside. We'll see how you perform first; the better you perform, the more money we'll give you."
I feel she's not as good as Teacher Bai Mei...
Ruoyun accepted the Galaxy Card with a slight sigh. "If you don't have money, why are you pretending to be Prince?"
This money wouldn't even be enough as a bonus for the Infinite Demon Slayer Team. If Hyacinth saw this, she'd laugh at me, and if the Holy Church Walker saw this, he'd expel me from the Holy Hall overnight.
What do you want us to help you with?
"Participating in the South China Super Magical Girl Mid-Season Tournament - [ Desperate Search for Magic ]."
"Um?"
South China, Mingxin City, Witch Association's Large Factory.
It's a sweatshop operating underground, working 24/7.
It can also be considered one of the Witch Association's important assets in South China.
At this moment, Xilan was in the workshop, chained up and equipped with a special electric shock device for witches.
If she dared to stop what she was doing, the voltage of up to two hundred would immediately energize her.
She had worked non-stop for three days, and after repairing for four hours, she was pulled back onto the assembly line.
These desperate days caused Xilan to break down emotionally.
As she wiped the small pearls, she sobbed softly, "You wait, you wait..."
"When Si Motu returns, when Si Motu returns! You're all doomed! Absolutely doomed!"
Since being sent by Si Motu to find the Witch Potion, Xilan has suffered a great deal.
Ultimately, what everyone cares about is Si Motu herself; they have absolutely no interest in her as a witch.
Even if it is said that Si Motu has defeated the invincible Purple Demon of the Beihai and has already slaughtered his way across the Beihai, and will surely return, the Azure Cloud Sect is merely clinging to life.
But no one was really willing to extend credit to her just because of Si Motu's name.
She even went to great lengths to obtain information about the Witch Potion.
Those Complete Witch who fawned over Si Motu near the Mental Image Remnants were indeed nothing but a bunch of short-sighted opportunists!
When Lord Si Motu was nearby, they all wished they could stick to him and offer themselves to Si Motu.
Now that Si Motu is gone, he finds even talking to himself annoying.
One by one, they disobeyed the master's orders and disrupted his plans!
It's precisely because the Witch Association so many scoundrels that things are going so badly! Not only have they been consistently outmaneuvered by the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, but even the newly emerged Azure Cloud Sect has managed to surpass the Witch Association!
These insects, utterly shameless, remained completely unmoved!
If it weren't for Si Motu, the Witch Association would have lost all face at the Mental Image Remnants!
The Witch Association, one of the two major organizations, was overwhelmed by the Azure Cloud Sect and the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau when the Mental Image Remnants was opened.
I'm not ashamed to tell anyone!
It was only through Si Motu's brilliant performance that the Witch Association' Society regained some face.
Ultimately, the confidence of the Witch Association's lower ranks stems from Lord Si Motu's power.
In reality, the higher-ups of the Witch Association only claimed that they possessed the technology and means to allow anyone to attain the power of Si Motu...
Even Xilan, who was already used to the Witch Association's ways, couldn't help but be amazed by everyone's shamelessness.
Of course, Xilan was even more furious that the man had claimed the credit from Si Motu.
But there was nothing she could do, since she couldn't beat them.
In order to find the medicine for Lord Si Motu, Xilan begged and pleaded, even lowering her noble head and asking in a humble voice.
With Si Motu's promise, someone finally told her where she could buy Witch Potion.
This is the area of factories.
On the surface, it's a shoe factory, but in reality, it's a secret factory used to produce various materials for the Witch Association Witch Potion.
Ever since Xilan learned that there were Witch Potion here, she has been spending all her time at the factory.
Initially, the idea was to use Si Motu's name to get the factory to provide the potion for free.
After all, Si Motu is a legend of the Witch Association, the light of witches!
Although it's a man, the title sounds a bit strange.
But whether you're male or female, if you make a name for yourself in the Witch Association, you'll be a shining example of the Witch!
The Witch's Light bears the mission of defeating the magical girl; the Witch's Light will set the world ablaze!
They actually refused to provide free potion assistance to Witch's Light!
Even if Xilan talked until his lips were sore, it was no use.
With the added security system here, Xilan's proudest ability to fuse matter means that obtaining the Witch Potion through petty theft won't work.
With nowhere else to turn, Xilan bumped into His Highness the Prince.
At the time, she thought she had met an angel.
With nowhere else to turn and unable to help Lord Si Motu obtain the Witch Potion, Xilan was plunged into despair and self-blame when the Prince made a dazzling appearance and told Xilan that she was Si Motu's friend and that if she needed any help, she could just ask her.
Xilan was so moved she almost cried.
She can still remember every detail from that time.
The newly arrived Prince asked with concern, "You want the Witch Potion?"
Xilan replied, "Yes! But they won't give it to me!"
The Prince then asked, "Didn't you mention Si Motu?"
Xilan said angrily, "I told them, but I was only repeatedly insulted and treated like trash by the witch!"
The Prince patted her head and sighed, "Good child, let me help you."
Xilan exclaimed in surprise, " Prince Highness! How can this be?"
The Prince simply held out his hand. "Give me your phone."
Then Xilan was shocked.
"Where did this fifty million come from!"
" Magic Loan Loan is a large platform, it even partners with city governments, and new users get a 30% interest-free period..."
I thought it was an angel, but it turned out to be an angel loan!
But Xilan was already at her wit's end, had no choice but to excitedly tell Si Motu.
Praise the Prince for being a good person.
With Si Motu around, will we ever lack money again?
Who would have thought that the loan would be chased for repayment the very next day!
Didn't they say it would be interest-free at 30 minutes?
Nobody told me it was interest-free for 30 minutes!
Furthermore, since the money to purchase Witch Potion is through loans, the factory here also has a cooperative relationship with Magic Loan Loan.
This prevented her from even taking a ton of Witch Potion with a loan. In fact, because she had no money to repay the loan, she was forced to work in a factory as a laborer to pay off her debts!
We've been set up.
The Prince and the Magic Loan Loan were in cahoots; they disappeared after lending her the money, leaving her in this predicament!
However, if Xilan could send a ton of potion to Si Motu, she wouldn't mind.
The problem is that the medicine hasn't even been delivered yet, and he's already in this predicament. This is simply unbearable for Xilan!
What if Lord Si Motu thinks she's done a bad job and has become a traitor?
The thought of this made Xilan feel incredibly wronged and sad.
Whether I live or die is irrelevant; what matters is that I've delayed Si Motu's great cause of changing the world. To do so would be a truly wasted death!
At least let me complete Si Motu Tu's mission first...
The thought of Si Motu's future disappointment and indifference made Xilan cry even harder.
"If you cry again and your horse urine affects the potion's effectiveness, you'll see what I do to you!"
The Complete Witch monitoring her from the side gave her a fierce warning.
Xilan, who was still feeling down about not being able to serve Si Motu, immediately glared back fiercely at her upon hearing this, like a hysterical mad dog, "Come on, deal with me! If you have the guts, kill me!"
Complete Witch Yun Ke.
This is the main reason why Xilan couldn't steal the Witch Potion from the factory or escape.
She possesses the ability to completely restrain Xilan.
Because this entire factory was actually a creation of Yun Ke's Filthy Magic Power.
Her magic permeated every part of the building, and Yun Ke's magic was also very special. Once inside the building, it was completely undetectable, and even magical girls could not find her here.
Therefore, Xilan has no way to merge in any corner of this factory, and even if she does merge, Yun Ke will quickly detect it.
Then, since the factory itself belongs to Yun Ke Xilan, who is integrated into any object in the factory, is also completely under her control.
Natural enemy, pure and simple natural enemy.
It's not that I, Xilan, am incompetent; it's just that the opposing team's targeting was too deliberate! You understand?
Yun Ke's abilities are also the reason why she is so successful in the Witch Association. After all, the people of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau in South China are known for their fierceness and their attitude towards the Witch Association is particularly strict.
Once discovered, they will surely be wiped out by the magical girls of the South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
If the Witch Association wants to expand in South China, they need someone like Yun Ke who can both conceal factories and ensure that magical girls can detect them in advance.
It was only with Yun Ke's abilities that the Witch Association was able to gain a foothold in South China.
The money she earned and her status within the Witch Association were naturally far beyond what Xilan could compare to.
But who is Xilan? She is the number one general under Si Motu!
For the glory of Lord Si Motu, how could we possibly bow down to such an ant!
" Yun Ke, if you have the guts, kill me! I, Xilan, will gouge out one of your eyes and make you kneel down and call me your grandma!"
While being electrocuted, Xilan was having an epileptic seizure and was shouting.
Even as they started drooling and their eyes glazed over, they showed no sign of backing down.
"To defeat you Witch Association!"
He will come back! He will come back!
The roars and shouts were deafening and relentless!
"Long live Si Motu!"
The other workers all looked at him like he was an idiot.
Xilan was the most mischievous person in the entire factory, so she had the most restrictions on her.
In reality, other workers don't face as many restrictions.
Everyone's just trying to make a living. It's tiring here, but the pay is real, so nobody wants to cause trouble.
Xilan acts like a masochist every day. I don't know if she's addicted to getting shocked, but she won't behave unless she makes a fuss and gets shocked a couple of times every day.
Yun Ke didn't seem inclined to engage in much conversation.
The twin Shuangsheng Xilan Witch Association like the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick; at Shuangsheng they know what it means to be a wise man when he sees the right opportunity.
Xilan is so stubborn; she won't turn back until she hits a brick wall.
If we don't take action, we'll never be able to make Xilan behave.
Yun Ke had no interest in Si Motu, the legend of the Witch Association.
She, who is involved in manufacturing and industry, naturally dislikes those who have a reputation but no real wealth or resources.
He has no money at all, yet he still needs Xilan to get him money. Isn't he just a complete Little White?
I don't know how I managed to be so infatuated with Xilan...
A whip lashed out at Xilan; it wasn't hard, but it definitely hurt. Yun Ke mocked:
"You call yourself a witch? It's shameful! Xilan, whatever he is, that stinking man from the Witch Association only cares about your money, you know? You're nothing but a tool for him to make money!"
"You know nothing! Lord Si Motu is not like those trash! Lord Si Motu is different! He protects the justice and peace of the witches!"
"Men have two heads, the top one thinks about money, the bottom one thinks about sex, do you think I don't know that? You're too naive, Xilan. You've been cheated out of your body and your money, what use are you now? If no one had saved you by now, they would have thrown you away long ago!"
"How dare you insult Si Motu! I'll fight you to the death!"
Yun Ke raised her whip, ready to lash out at Xilan, who was still causing trouble.
This is ridiculous. This thing is doomed. It doesn't work properly and all it does is cause trouble.
Selling it to other parts of the Old World might fetch a good price...
Lost in thought, he simply couldn't bring himself to strike with the whip.
Looking back, she saw a boy wearing a fox mask gently tapping her wrist with one finger.
Yun Ke felt her wrist break.
The once noisy factory, the workers who were watching the show, and even Xilan, who was still grimacing, all suddenly fell silent.
All that remained was the whirring sound of the machines in the workshop.
Then Yun Ke quickly jumped back, trying to create some distance.
Before he could even jump, his hair was grabbed.
He slammed him hard to the ground!
Bang!
Suddenly, a roaring sound reached my ears.
A somewhat somber sound emanated from the entire factory.
Yun Ke's forehead slammed into the ground, half of her skull even showing signs of cracking, with dark, Filthy Magic Power flowing out continuously.
She was somewhat bewildered.
They didn't even know what had happened.
It was impossible to see the other person's movements clearly; in fact, she transformed in an instant.
The witch's transformation is more convenient than the magical girl's; as long as she has the Grief Seed in her hand, she can actually transform with just a thought.
Although it lacks the invincible frames of magical girls, the transformation process is still mandatory and is rarely interrupted.
In South China, a place where she was constantly in danger of being wiped out by the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, she always carried the Grief Seed with her.
The moment he sensed the unusual movement, he immediately activated his transformation.
Before she could even put on her magical armor, her opponent grabbed her head and slammed it hard into the ground!
If the entire factory hadn't been enveloped in her magic, that blow would have nearly smashed her head to pieces!
Most importantly, the witch's magical armor shattered instantly upon being struck!
Using brute force to stop the witch from transforming...
Shocked, Yun Ke quickly recovered and pressed the red button on her wrist, shouting, "Attack! Level One Alert!"
As the piercing alarm sounded, countless gun barrels and cannons emerged from the walls.
Large numbers of combatants surged in from all directions, carrying modern firearms tainted with Filthy Magic Power.
However, the boy simply turned his head and stomped hard on the spot where the person had come from!
A huge crack spread wildly from the ground beneath his feet, and the walls and ceiling above also cracked rapidly.
All the gun barrels collapsed directly through the cracks!
Before the armed members of the Witch Association could even get close, they were instantly buried under the rubble and debris!
The remaining people immediately stopped in their tracks. When the masked boy turned his head to look, they all quickly threw away their weapons and raised their hands!
Are you kidding me? Who would risk their life against a monster like that!
One stomp and the whole factory will collapse!
How could this be human!
Not to mention the ordinary combat personnel, even Yun Ke herself was stunned, and even gave up struggling, obediently lying on the ground.
Everyone held their breath, no one dared to speak, they just stared at the suddenly appearing boy with fear and shock.
The only sound in the entire factory was the incessant blaring of sirens.
" Xilan."
Then, the masked boy asked calmly, his voice drowning out the factory's blaring alarms, "Should we spare her life?"
After being stunned for a long time, Xilan burst into tears.
It's wonderful to be able to serve Lord Si Motu!
She Xilan, is truly the luckiest and happiest witch in the Witch Association!
" Si Motu!"
After Xilan shouted excitedly and admiringly, the chains and stun gun on her body naturally came off.
He immediately ran up and hugged his boss.
" Xilan really misses you, Si Motu!"
Yun Ke and the others felt a jolt in their hearts.
Si Motu.
A legend who can fight the Full Blossom Magical Girl head-on without being at a disadvantage!
They just barged in without a sound, and the entire factory's security didn't even react!
If before I thought it was just a rumor or boast, now I no longer dare to doubt the authenticity of this legend.
No wonder Vice President Jialan attaches such importance to it...
" Si Motu, how did you find this place? I thought I'd never see you again..."
"I heard it from the Shuangsheng."
Xilan, who had been looking touched, paused upon hearing the Shuangsheng ' names, then seemed a little awkward, "Hmph, Shuangsheng... never mind, as long as it helps Lord Si Motu, I don't care!"
"So."
Si Motu pressed his hand against the head again, and Yun Ke's face sank further into the ground. "Should we kill her?"
After Xilan viciously stomped on Yun Ke's foot, she took a deep breath, and her expression returned to normal. "No, Lord Si Motu, we can't kill her. If we kill her, we won't be able to get the Witch Potion."
Yun Ke, who had been waiting to die, was also taken aback, not expecting Xilan to speak to her.
Then, Si Motu actually listened to Xilan and let go, allowing Yun Ke to stand up.
Covering her half-damaged face, Yun Ke quickly recovered after transforming. She glanced at Si Motu, then at Xilan.
I never imagined that Xilan was so important in the eyes of this Si Motu.
Not only did he come in person to save her, but he also hurt Xilan himself to avenge Xilan.
Turning around, Xilan said she was willing to let go, meaning she was willing to forgive herself.
On what grounds?
Why does this useless witch, Xilan, deserve such attention from Si Motu?
Because of love?
Heading in both directions...
"You'd better behave yourself," Xilan warned, mimicking her boss's style. "We need Witch Potion —all the Witch Potion in this factory! If you don't produce them, you're all dead!"
"We're only processing a portion." Yun Ke took a deep breath. Although Si Motu in front of her was capable of killing her, she showed no fear whatsoever. In South China, which witch didn't risk her life?
Having long been accustomed to the threat of death, she calmly replied, "The finished product isn't here with us. It's all at the Witch Association headquarters. Xilan, you're a witch too, you should know that they've always controlled all the resources..."
"What about the one ton of Witch Potion we agreed on?"
"They're all at headquarters. Witch Loans is located at headquarters. They don't believe in your ability to repay, and they never intended to ship the goods from the beginning." Yun Ke her head. "Unless you give me fifty million first."
"I don't care." Xilan sneered, standing in front of Yun Ke, finally becoming arrogant. "My Si Motu needs Witch Potion. If you can't bring back a ton of potions, you'll all die!"
I told you I couldn't get it.
"No matter what method you use, sell yourself, beg and plead, kneel before someone, you have to get it!"
"Hehe."
Unexpectedly Yun Ke also laughed, "We are indeed no match for Si Motu, and I know you would kill me as easily as killing a chicken, but as a witch, I also have the dignity of a witch! You can kill me, but don't even think about insulting me! I, Yun Ke, have never been a witch who is afraid of death!"
Seeing Yun Ke becoming increasingly agitated, Xilan inwardly cried out in alarm; she had met her match!
Just as they were thinking of other solutions, they saw Lord Si Motu, who had been listening quietly to them, suddenly pull something out of his robes.
It hit Yun Ke's face.
The proud witch was about to roar, but when the beautiful black and gold hue was reflected in her pupils, her tough and arrogant expression gradually melted away.
The initial cold laugh gradually turned into a somewhat warm smile. "Lord Si Motu, what does this mean?"
"Black Gold Card, 50 million."
That deep, magnetic voice instantly pierced Yun Ke's heart.
She finally understood why Xilan was so infatuated with her.
This man is no ordinary person.
Even the voice is so captivating...
It's a charm that radiates naturally from within, even more captivating than his actual abilities.
She, who is involved in real business, is drawn to well-known figures who possess wealth and valuable resources.
Yun Ke, who never looks at appearances and only values inner beauty, almost fell for him, but luckily she had enough self-control.
He immediately snapped out of his daze, holding the black gold card in his hands. " Si Motu, you should have said so earlier! With a black gold card, getting back a ton of Witch Potion would be a piece of cake. You can trust me to handle things; if anyone dares to shortchange you even a milligram, I'll skin them alive!"
However, the young man did not stop. He took out two more black gold cards from his pocket and tossed them into her hand.
"Do you still need someone to warm your bed?" Yun Ke said earnestly. "I can be loyal, and I can serve you."
"Go away, it's not your turn!"
Yun Ke didn't care at all about Xilan's vicious expulsion.
Ha, trying to eat it all by yourself? No way!
"These two cards," Si Motu said in a low voice, "I need you to get me the recipe for the Witch Potion."
Yun Ke was horrified. "This is an act of betrayal against the Witch Association!"
Then he immediately added, "It costs more money."
It was just a casual remark, since two cards would have been enough.
Unexpectedly, the young man casually pulled out a black gold card and tossed it over.
Yun Ke nodded, " The Witch Association actually refused to present Lord Si Motu with the method for making the Witch Potion."
"This is an act of betrayal! I, Yun Ke, will definitely set things right for Si Motu!"
Xilan stood to the side, biting her handkerchief, looking unwilling to give up.
They've only just met, so why does she enjoy Si Motu's trust so much?!
"Besides."
After Si Motu spoke, Xilan and Yun Ke immediately quieted down and listened attentively to what Si Motu to say.
"I plan to run for the position of vice president, focusing on the factory and gathering more members of the Witch Association who are willing to pledge their loyalty to me."
Yun Ke's expression was solemn, and she remained silent.
Xilan was immediately overjoyed, "Yes! Si Motu, I told you long ago that Jialan should have yielded voluntarily. She didn't want to save face herself, so we had to help her save face!"
Jiang Si smiled faintly and said nothing.
Once you get the position of vice president, you'll be eligible to go to headquarters.
It's more convenient to get the Witch Association's resources directly from headquarters.
Looking at Yun Ke, Yun Ke immediately turned her head to look at the workers and the Witch Association's fighting members.
"Did you all hear that? Si Motu is going to become the vice president."
"This is betrayal, isn't it?" one of the middle-aged men said, his face extremely uneasy. "We're doomed..."
Don't you even have this much awareness?
Yun Ke's face hardened, and she slammed her hand on the machine beside her. "Failure is betrayal! Success is revolution!"
" The Witch Association needs a top-down transformation, and Si Motu has returned! Back to his most loyal Witch Association headquarters! Only under Si Motu's leadership can the Witch Association made great again!"
With a passionate expression, Yun Ke looked at the hesitant workers and Witch Association, took out her black card, and gently licked it.
Savoring the taste of money.
"I will not keep this honor to myself. Everyone's salary and meal allowance will be doubled!"
The people who were still hesitant suddenly became resolute.
Everyone stood up and bowed in salute to Si Motu and Yun Ke.
"Loyalty!"
