"... Just as the Golden Calamity Dragon King was rampaging and Guangzhou was on the verge of destruction, the magical girl Blackberry bent down, picked up a pebble, looked at the sky, and said, 'Damn Calamity Beast!' Then she threw the pebble."
" The Golden Calamity Dragon King in the sky emitted a dazzling light, then turned and fled in panic."
"This is an S-class Calamity Beast. It's been circling over Guangzhou for ages, and I've had enough," Magical Girl Blackberry said angrily.
The children clapped enthusiastically, feeling proud that Guangzhou had such a great leader!
Inside the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, Mingxin City.
The radio kept playing the latest article, "Magical Girl Blackberry Shoots Down the Golden Calamity Dragon King with Pebbles."
After hearing about the incident in Guangzhou, a reporter from the TV station interviewed Magical Girl Blackberry and rushed to write an article overnight.
Due to its sincerity and excellent writing, it was immediately recognized as an outstanding article of the year by the South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
It was distributed to various Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, requiring them to memorize the entire text and read it aloud.
However, the magical girl Blackberry herself is the one who threw a stone to repel the S-class Calamity Beast, the Golden Calamity Dragon King, in the story.
Sitting next to Keke and Yinlian, her face was completely red, not just her cheeks, but even her earlobes.
Covering her face, her voice even trembling with tears, she cried, "I... I didn't say that!"
Even Keke had to adopt a more senior-like demeanor at this moment, gently patting Magical Girl Blackberry's head to reassure her, "It's okay, it's okay, that's just how the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau is, they tend to exaggerate a little..."
"It's not just a little exaggerated! Not a single word of it is true!"
"So it's true that your stone repelled the S-rank Calamity Beast," Yinlian comforted her from the side. "At least that part isn't fake."
"I told you I didn't fight it off!" Blackberry wiped away her tears, lowered her hand, her eyes red and her face full of grievance. "I told you that the Calamity Beast ran away on its own. It... it might not be a bad thing by nature, so it left without harming anyone..."
But...
Yinlian sat at the table, propping her chin up with one hand. "This kind of thinking is obviously not feasible. South China is already plagued by disasters; we don't have time to distinguish between good and bad Calamity Beast. The most correct approach is to eliminate them all as enemies. If we were to spread the idea that some Calamity Beast are good, that Calamity Beast also have dreams, and that we should coexist peacefully with good Calamity Beast, the price we would have to pay might be beyond our imagination."
"I know."
Blackberry sniffed and sobbed, "I knew it would cause trouble for everyone, so I said that the Calamity Beast probably left because it was afraid of the other magical girls' power. I said it wasn't me who defeated it, yet they still wrote it like that. Besides, it wasn't hovering over Guangzhou, and I didn't say 'damn Calamity Beast, I didn't tolerate it for long...'"
Listening to the black-clad magical girl crying and complaining, Keke only offer a couple more words of comfort.
They were supposed to go home today.
After the competition, maybe a little more sightseeing and some interaction with the other magical girls from the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, and then the event would be considered a complete success.
After all, Keke had already won the championship and made the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau famous.
This prevents people from thinking they are merely appendages of the Azure Cloud Sect. Seeing Keke's achievements, people will also know that the magical girls in the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau are quite capable.
As a result of the sudden appearance of the Golden Calamity Dragon King, the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau of South China naturally couldn't sit still.
This Calamity Beast is clearly a top-tier S-class Calamity Beast. Although it only caused some property damage in Guangzhou and there were no casualties, it is still a huge hidden danger.
What South China finds most unacceptable is the potential for hidden dangers.
The South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, whose nerves are heightened by the constant occurrence of strange disasters and the turmoil caused by the Old World, strives to nip all known hidden dangers in the bud.
Such a massive S-class Calamity Beast was immediately reported to the General Administration, hoping for support from the General Administration.
But the headquarters only told them that the S-class Calamity Beast came from the Beihai, and that the magical girls of the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau had dealt with that Calamity Beast more often.
Tell them to ask the magical girl at the Beihai Disaster Countermeasures Bureau.
This is why Keke, Yinlian, and the others were taken to the conference room of the Mingxin City Disaster Countermeasures Bureau for a meeting.
They were basically asked about the Golden Calamity Dragon King, including how to deal with him.
Yinlian also told them straightforwardly that the Golden Calamity Dragon King would not attack proactively. When it appeared, as long as people were evacuated, there would be basically no danger. They could simply wait for it to leave on its own.
The staff of the South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau naturally didn't believe it, so a group of people argued back and forth in the conference room.
It's somewhat meaningless.
The negotiation work was quickly handed over to Susan, who was always very good at it. Susan soon silenced the staff of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau of South China, and the only sound in the conference room was the broadcast.
After being comforted for a while, the magical girl Blackberry finally recovered from her sadness and stopped crying.
However, he kept muttering to himself, " The Golden Calamity Dragon King is truly different. I wish I could see him again."
This reminded Keke of Laiya, and she also longed to see Laiya again.
So I encouraged Blackberry and told her that we would definitely meet again in the future.
This made Blackberry, who was initially feeling down, smile through her tears.
The boring meeting was almost over when the South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau said they were going to send them gifts, so the group could only wait.
With nothing else to do, Yiyi asked Keke, "How did you end up sleeping with Shion?"
"When I came to deliver the gift, it was the middle of the night, and I thought I'd ask Ms. Shion to keep me company while I rested. It was just a casual remark."
There was no attempt to hide anything; "I didn't expect Ms. Shion to agree."
Keke initially worried that her friend might be unhappy because of her hatred for Shion.
After hearing Yiyi looked somewhat envious. "She's Return to Truth good to you, willing to sleep with you."
"That's how it is, Ms. Shion."
Feeling a little smug, Keke also shared her thoughts, "Sometimes I feel that Ms. Shion and my older brother are really alike..."
"Absolutely impossible!"
Keke was startled by Yiyi's sudden and serious denial.
Susan and An Shiyu, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but look over.
Yinlian realized her reaction had been a bit too strong, then coughed twice, "I mean, that's impossible."
"Of course I know it's impossible." Keke looked at her strangely. "I just feel that Professor Shion has been influenced by my brother a lot, in many ways."
"Oh, that's how it is with lovers. The longer you're together, the more you resemble each other..."
"Yes, that's what they say in the comics too."
Without giving it much thought, Keke lay down on the table and murmured, "I wonder what my brother and Ms. Shion are doing now."
" Jiang Si is probably on a date."
It's most likely a date.
"It's definitely a date."
Yinlian, Susan, and An Shiyu answered one after another.
Blackberry then asked with some curiosity, "Do you all like him?"
The meeting room fell silent for a moment.
Several pairs of eyes turned towards her, and Blackberry immediately shrank back, feeling a little scared.
"Yeah, it seems like you guys really care..."
Just when I felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to escape.
The director of the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau of Mingxin City finally flew in.
That was also an elderly Incubators, who said with a smile:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have gained a lot in many aspects this time."
"The most exciting news is about the new uses of Dream Marrow. I'd like to share this with you first, and I hope you can bring it to the Azure Cloud Sect in Beihai to show our Disaster Countermeasures Bureau's sincerity. The South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau warmly welcomes the Azure Cloud Sect to establish a branch in South China."
Jiang Si originally wanted to go back to the Main God Space first.
After all, the Main God System had indicated that Ruoyun and the others had completed their mission, and he was curious about what they had gained.
However, halfway through the journey, he received an invitation from the prince of the Mirror Kingdom.
Perhaps due to the wariness of the South China towards the Mirror World, the Prince of the Land of Mirrors dared not show himself casually.
The ability to casually pull people into the Mirror Space, like it did back in Beihai, is something I dare not use lightly.
After all, South China is the most wary of the Land of Mirrors.
The damage inflicted on South China by the Land of Mirrors was far greater than that caused by any Calamity Beast or Witch Association.
That is a wound that will forever remain in the hearts of everyone in South China.
Ultimately, the intense battles between the magical girls of South China and the Witch Association were mostly treated as drills.
To prevent the next Land of Mirrors incident from happening again.
Meanwhile, South China also possesses a wealth of magic and technology specifically designed to target the Mirror Kingdom. Exploration cards like [Echoes of Starlight] are practically ubiquitous, and magical girls frequently scan them for fun. If the prince of the Mirror Kingdom dared to show his face in South China, he would likely be quickly targeted by the South China Disaster Management Bureau.
Even Jiang Si doesn't intend to casually enter or leave the Main God Space.
To avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
Even now, the prince of the Mirror Kingdom didn't dare use the Mirror Kingdom's technology in his letter; instead, he asked someone from the Witch's Guild to contact him using a crystal ball.
The Witch Association's Crystal Ball is one of the few items that can evade the detection of the South China Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, which is why the Witch Association's Society has not given it up until now.
There are very few magical girls like those from the Beihai who can engage in crystal ball reconnaissance and defense battles with the captain; Four Leaves, Six Leaves, and the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau are exceptions.
It's extremely rare to find evidence that Witch Association crystal ball magic; otherwise, Witch Association have long since disappeared...
According to the message, he left Mingxin City and walked to a river in the suburbs.
Mingxin City is situated next to a large river, which flows in Mingxin City directions and branches off into several smaller rivers.
Jiang Si is now located on a small river that branches off from the north of Mingxin City. The water is relatively clear, and there are not many people around. Because the current is not strong enough, there are only fishermen around, and boats do not come near.
After reaching the riverbank, looking at the shimmering water, I could vaguely make out the appearance of the prince of the Mirror Kingdom.
He was sitting in his private space, staring at himself with a cold expression.
As the river rippled, her eyes seemed to wander aimlessly.
Jiang Si didn't think much of it and jumped down.
The river water wasn't even splashed.
When Jiang Si jumped, she only felt the world flip up, and didn't even feel anything unusual.
He climbed out of the river, his clothes weren't even completely wet, just a little damp.
It was probably made by the prince of the Mirror Kingdom; Jiang Si doesn't know much about the technology here.
When he jumped out of the river and onto the bank, the prince of the Mirror Kingdom was sitting next to him, holding a fishing rod in his hand.
As far as a fisherman goes, she really wasn't very skilled. Jiang Si looked around and saw that there wasn't a single fish in the bucket.
That's fine, though, at least it prevents the other person from suddenly veering into talking about how big a fish they caught.
The old man here used to be terrible at fishing and loved to play around. If he caught a small fish fry, he could talk about it all day long, and it was basically impossible to communicate with him.
He'd had enough of the fishermen.
He stood by, waiting for the Prince to speak, while the Prince, fishing rod in hand, waited for him to speak.
The two remained locked in this stalemate for half an hour.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Finally, the Prince couldn't hold back any longer and asked a question.
I thought you'd catch one before you spoke.
Jiang Si replied casually.
He understands fishermen's minds perfectly.
Having caught nothing by this point, he must be incredibly frustrated.
This girl is proud and arrogant, and she's probably driven by competitiveness, planning to catch a fish before talking about serious matters.
Otherwise, one's thoughts will not be clear.
Speaking up at this time will most likely result in inexplicable outbursts of anger or similar behavior.
Whether from the perspective of efficiency or the friendliness of communication, waiting until the other party has "caught a fish" before starting a conversation is the best choice.
This is the judgment Jiang Si made instantly after seeing that there were no fish in her bucket.
Both their reaction speed and mental agility are impeccable!
"I didn't think that way; I was waiting for you to speak first."
He's still being stubborn.
This is what it means to be unable to accept defeat: even if you're so upset you could cry, you absolutely cannot lose in words.
Jiang Si didn't intend to confront the other party, after all, she was there to cooperate.
"Wait for me to say something?"
Jiang Si then took the initiative to start a conversation, "You're the one who called me over, how would I know what you wanted to talk about?"
You definitely know.
"I have no idea."
Think about it again.
Jiang Si thought the Prince had probably gone crazy from not being able to catch any fish.
The fisherman's mental state was always pathetic; he began to consider leaving first and coming back another time.
Negotiating with a madman will not yield good results, and I don't want to fall out with him at this time.
"If you can't figure it out and don't want to talk about it, then I'll be leaving."
The Prince slammed his fishing rod down with a "smack," saying, "If you dare leave, we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
That won't work.
Jiang Si stopped in her tracks.
The engagement hasn't been signed yet.
You've skipped ahead; skipping the annulment of an engagement in an online novel is like skipping life itself.
Could you please rewind the progress bar a bit...?
"Why are you associating with people from the Azure Cloud Sect?"
After waiting for a while, seeing that Jiang Si seemed genuinely clueless, the Prince finally couldn't help but speak up.
"You're my business partner and fiancé! You're also a member of the Witch Association, how can you be so close to the Azure Cloud Sect and let that vixen Shion stand above you?"
"Oh," Jiang Si replied casually. "We've always had a good relationship."
The Prince's beautiful pupils contracted slightly, and he took two steps back. "Aren't you formidable rivals?"
"They are indeed formidable rivals, so what?"
It can only be said that Prince Yanran's purity is still too low.
The understanding of the concept of a formidable rival is too simplistic.
A rival who is both friend and foe, a formidable enemy, is always a whetstone for the protagonist in online novels. When it's time to fight, they fight; when it's time to join forces, they join forces. That's what a formidable enemy is!
"Back in Beihai, I couldn't do anything to them, and they couldn't do anything to me, so we occasionally had some exchanges. We were, in a sense, both enemies and friends."
"So it's normal to join forces when we encounter trouble, after all, we should prioritize eliminating other enemies before we determine a winner."
You should know that the first person to make a name for my Holy Church in all the heavens and myriad worlds—the top-level fierce man Wang Meng, who possessed the [ Heaven and Earth Dragon Chants the Moon ] statue, had a lifelong rival who fought from the small thousand worlds to the Great Thousand World.
That formidable rival even stopped the strongest demon god who attempted to destroy the Holy Church at the crucial moment when the patriarch ascended to the Great Thousand World, thus initiating the final battle ahead of schedule!
This is a method passed down through generations of the Holy Church. The Prince should study it more thoroughly and understand it well, for he may very well become one of the Holy Church Member in the future.
The Prince fell silent for a long time before finally saying, "Am I also someone to be excluded first?"
You are my partner.
"No, this is too indecent of you." The prince thought for a long time before finally saying in a deep voice, "You are the fiancé of the prince of my Mirror Kingdom. How can you get so close to a girl who is my enemy? What will others think of me? Neither I nor the Mirror Kingdom can accept this. You must stay away from those suspicious girls from now on!"
So when she saw Si Motu, she gave him a troubled look.
The Prince's pride prevented her from uttering words of weakness, but she couldn't help feeling a pang of sadness. "Isn't having me enough for you?"
"It has nothing to do with these things; it's just normal, temporary cooperation."
"But at the time, it didn't look like a normal, temporary collaboration at all; you were so docile..."
She thought for a moment, but ultimately decided against saying anything too harsh or hurting Si Motu's pride. "You're too docile."
"It's all just acting."
The Prince gently touched his chest, maintaining his dignity and pride as a royal Prince. "If you continue to cooperate with the Azure Cloud Sect like that, our engagement will truly be difficult to continue. For the sake of the Land of Mirrors, for the sake of the royal family..."
But then Si Motu casually pulled a document out of his pocket.
Ultimately, our engagement was only a verbal agreement from the very beginning.
The words the Prince had spoken before were now repeated by Si Motu: "So, a definite Contract is needed for it to count. This is what I got from the Civil Affairs Bureau; it should be considered an engagement Contract?"
The Prince glanced at the words on the Contract, then looked up at the masked boy. "You must separate from the Azure Cloud Sect."
To sign or not to sign?
"You can only be a partner of my Land of Mirrors, you are my Prince's fiancé..."
So, should we sign it or not?
The Prince took a deep breath, maintaining his dignity, "As long as you swear you will never associate with the Azure Cloud Sect..."
"Fine, don't sign then."
Just as Jiang Si was about to throw away the engagement Contract...
The Prince grabbed his hand.
She turned her head away, pursed her lips, and spoke in a muffled tone.
I'll sign.
