Chapter 179 The Knight Who Commands Magic
The next few days were relatively peaceful.
The fall of the Divine Tree did not cause much of a stir in the real world, except that it startled the magical girls.
It was barely peaceful.
However, just as Chang Lei said before, the name of the Greedy One has re-entered the field of vision of all superhumans after seven years of silence.
It wasn't just magical girls; other factions also remembered those faceless people who liked to stab people in the back.
Perhaps because the greedy ones have a bad reputation and have never left a good impression on anyone, those guys have a deeper impression of them after they noticed their return.
This is similar to how in school, the students who are remembered are often not the good students, but rather the most mischievous ones in the class.
The news of the resurrection of the god of greed.
It spread throughout the world almost instantly.
Many entities hidden in the darkness have slowly stretched out their tentacles, wanting to take advantage of the chaos and get a share of the spoils, but most are still keeping a wait-and-see attitude.
Just when they were expecting the God of Greed to "make a big splash" in the real world, for several days in a row, the God of Greed disappeared without making a ripple.
Forget about making a big splash, not even the scent of greed remained. As a result, those tentacles in the darkness were caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to extend further or retract.
The "god" in their eyes was sitting cross-legged on a yoga mat, completely absorbed in meditation.
In front of Tang Zijun, Qin Nan lay on a chair, her fair legs draped over the back of the chair, playing on her phone in an extremely strange sitting posture.
After trying for several tens of minutes, Tang Zijun reluctantly opened her eyes.
"Are you sure? I haven't felt anything at all. What about that magic you mentioned, and the energy that connects to nature?"
I felt absolutely nothing.
Upon hearing this, Qin Nan smoothly turned around and sat up straight.
"That shouldn't be the case. That's how we magical girls do it, including Karakusa, who started from this step. You can clearly use magic, so why can't you sense the existence of magical power...?"
"Is it possible that I'm not a magical girl...?"
"But you can use the power of a magical girl. If you don't possess magic power yourself, it's impossible to unleash magic."

Tang Zijun pondered for a moment, then quickly got up.
"I'd better go ask Qingnang."
Although she already knew Tan Zhixin's real name, Tang Zijun still habitually called her Qingnang.
Upon hearing this, Qin Nan quickly grabbed Tang Zijun's arm. "No, no, please give me another chance. Besides, Sister Tan is so busy right now, she doesn't have time to help you."
"Something happened again?" Tang Zijun was taken aback.
"Isn't this all your doing? The fall of the Divine Tree was such a big deal. Now all the other sisters are like they've been injected with chicken blood, thinking about how to improve their combat power. Sister Tan is dealing with them right now."
"That must have been really tough on her..."
"So you'd better just listen to me. Don't worry, I'll teach you properly this time."
"So you weren't taking it seriously just now?" Tang Zijun's eyes widened.
"Of course not!" Qin Nan chuckled. "I just wanted to eliminate a wrong answer first. I guarantee you'll learn something from what I'm about to say."
Tang Zijun stared silently at Qin Nan, her face full of disbelief.
Qin Nan patted the chair. "Come on, sit down first."
Taking a deep breath, Qin Nan's pretty face gradually became serious.
"Originally, I wanted to help you using the magical girl method, but I forgot that you don't have a rainbow crystal flower yourself. That's my mistake, and I need to reflect on it, but it's also a good thing."
Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun nodded slightly and listened attentively.
"Perhaps our power systems are indeed different. So what we need to do next is to determine whether the magic you use comes from you or from nature."
"Is there any difference?" Tang Zijun asked curiously.
"There is a difference. After being chosen by nature, magical girls are able to accumulate a certain amount of magic power, and they can still use some magic even when they are not in their transformed state."
As he spoke, Qin Nan waved his hand.
The next moment, a cool breeze suddenly blew through the room, swirling around and then disappearing into thin air.
"Look, like this, but if your magic comes from nature, then it proves that you cannot use magic yourself, and your magic is obtained after transformation."
"I think I understand."
Tang Zijun touched her chin and guessed.
"You mean I'm not a magical girl, so I can't use magic whenever I want like you. My magic can only be used after I transform, just like you do after you transform."
"That's pretty much the idea. Why don't you try transforming yourself?" Qin Nan looked at Tang Zijun with some anticipation.
"Yes, that's okay..."
Tang Zijun stood up, and the belt was already visible on his body.
Following a set procedure, as the silver light gradually transformed into golden light, Tang Zijun donned her magic king form armor once again.
Feeling the waves of magical energy emanating from the other person, Qin Nan's breathing became somewhat rapid.
Previously, he hadn't had a chance to properly experience it in that kind of environment. Now, looking at this magnificent and handsome armor, Qin Nan kept clicking his tongue in amazement, circling around Tang Zijun several times, looking her up and down.
"What are you looking at?" Tang Zijun felt uncomfortable being stared at by Qin Nan and couldn't help but ask.
"Although I don't know how you used the power of the Greedy Ones, judging from your form alone, the armor on your entire body is indeed made of magic, just like the clothes we wear after transforming."
Speaking of this, Tang Zijun was also a little curious. "By the way, can't you change your clothes after transforming? Are you always wearing the same outfit?"
"Overall, it's the same, but it won't stay the same forever. With each level you advance, you'll get more decorations. Those are things that store magic power and symbolize the magical girl's magic strength," Qin Nan explained.
Then she turned her attention to Tang Zijun's armor.
"But generally speaking, it's difficult for magical clothing to be formed into armor. After all, for magic to remain in circulation, soft fabric is more suitable. Your outfit... is really quite strange."
However, Qin Nan didn't think much of it and continued to ask.
"How is it? Can you feel the magic now?"
"Um"
Tang Zijun closed her eyes and sensed it for a moment. Soon, the surrounding metal objects began to tremble slightly, though not strongly.
It actually has the feel of greeting Tang Zijun.
"I can feel it, and I know it very clearly. I feel like all the metal around me is under my control, but it still takes some effort to actually control them."
"Well, Magneto, huh!" Qin Nan laughed.
"So what should I do next? Try to manipulate the metal little by little?" Tang Zijun asked.
"No need, those are the most basic things. With your current magic reserves, you can do it with a little practice. Besides, we're in the city now, so it wouldn't be good to make too much noise."
"What should we do then?"
"I've already made up my mind, just wait for me a moment~"
Qin Nan smiled mysteriously, then turned and ran into Tang Zijun's bedroom. A short while later, she ran back to the living room and put a bunch of things she was carrying on the table.
"Clang clang clang!"
Tang Zijun looked closely and saw that Qin Nan had taken out several toys from her bedroom.
They're called toys, but they're actually miniature Gundams and some Warhammer models, all of which Tang Zijun bought and pieced together bit by bit.
Especially the Warhammer model, which Tang Zijun mixed and painted himself, was one of his few treasures in a sense.
"What are you doing with my model?"
"Here's your chance to try it out~"
Qin Nan rubbed his hands excitedly and said.
"Come on, try it out. Use the magic you used to deal with those monsters to try and turn all these things into gold. If you can master this technique, you'll have gold magic in your hands."
"...Is this reliable? Are you sure it will work?"
"Don't worry, I am a wind elemental magical girl. We are on the same level among the eight elements. Trust me, you won't go wrong."
Seeing Qin Nan's confident demeanor, Tang Zijun hesitated for a moment before deciding to give it a try as well.
For the magical girl with the gold element, turning lead into gold is both a milestone and a watershed moment.
Magical girls who can turn lead into gold are all masters of the gold element, and once they achieve this, learning other magic becomes much easier.
This is what is meant by "one step leads to mastery, and every step leads to mastery."
Slowly closing her eyes, Tang Zijun calmed herself down and gradually focused her mind on her body.
The surging magic in the surrounding environment re-entered Tang Zijun's senses, and a familiar yet strange feeling descended upon his heart.
As she slowly stretched out her hand, magic naturally appeared in Tang Zijun's hand and slowly transformed into a faint glow.
Recalling the feeling of casting magic before, Tang Zijun suddenly accelerated the flow of magic and quickly reached out to cover the model.
Immediately afterwards, the palm-sized Gundam began to be bathed in a layer of golden light.
Although her eyes were still closed, Tang Zijun could already feel the model in front of her being transformed by her magic.
It was a wonderful feeling that was hard to describe.
After finding this method effective, Tang Zijun gradually loosened up her efforts, controlling the magic power to prevent it from overflowing while accelerating the modification of the model.
Finally, after five minutes, the plastic Gundam model was transformed into gold from the inside out.
"It's a success!"
Although it was still a long time, Tang Zijun was very excited.
Qin Nan's eyes lit up.
"We've struck it rich!"
