Chapter 41 The World
On the other side, Tangcao was still focused on sensing the energy reaction of the Outer Path Demon.
Since being recognized by the Rainbow Crystal Flower and becoming a magical girl, Tangcao has discovered that her body has been changing without her realizing it.
Of course, this change is not the kind of change from A to D, but a more magical, indescribable spiritual change.
After her first battle, Tang Cao realized her sensitivity to certain emotions. At school, she could keenly detect when some classmates were radiating negative energy.
Although that negative energy is very small, often caused by things like not getting a gold card in a gacha pull, not doing well on an exam, or having your phone confiscated, it is still very noticeable for Tangcao.
Tangcao guessed that this energy was most likely the energy that gave birth to the heretical demons.
Similarly, the negative energy emanating from heretical demons is even stronger and more aggressive.
Looking down at the crystal pendant clutched in her hand, Tang Cao pursed her lips slightly.
"Since just now, the rainbow crystal flower has been emitting magical energy, which is clearly a warning that there are traces of heretical demons around me."
Thinking it over, Tang Cao turned around and looked around. All she could see was a decaying corridor with no unusual features to her name.
"That's strange. There was clearly some reaction, so why didn't I see a single heretic demon?"
As they were talking, Tang Cao suddenly felt that it was too quiet around her.
He turned around abruptly, only to find the corridor behind him completely empty, devoid of any presence in the dim light.
Only a single, lonely set of footprints remained on the blood-red carpet.
"Where's Da Xin?"
Staring blankly in the direction they came from, they looked down the corridor and could vaguely see the faint light coming from the hall.
"He came in with me, didn't he?"
For no reason at all, Tang Cao felt that she was jumping a little too fast.
Encountering a stranger of the same kind in an unfamiliar environment, if Tang Cao hadn't already confirmed that Da Xin was indeed human, she would now be wondering if he was a ghost.
Gazing at her surroundings, she felt as if something was secretly watching her, perhaps because of the dim light.
Tangcao began to hesitate about whether she should continue.
First, there was the eerie cake shop, then the even more bizarre restaurant. If you continue down this corridor, who knows what kind of danger you might encounter?
Most importantly, the further I go, the farther I get from Yao Yao's location. If I can't find my way back, that would be a real problem!
Just as she was having an internal struggle, a small sound of something falling to the ground came from not far behind her.
The sudden sound instantly tensed Tang Cao's body. She quickly turned around, placing her hands horizontally in front of her, ready for battle.
"Akara?"
A familiar voice rang out, and then a furry white figure appeared in front of Tangcao.
"noob!"
Tangcao's expression visibly brightened with happiness.
Nothing could excite her more than seeing her spirit beast under such bizarre circumstances.
Tangcao had previously regretted not taking Xiaobai with her when she went out.
Despite being a magical girl, she's a complete novice and doesn't know much about the Outer Path Demons.
Just as Tang Cao was about to approach Xiao Bai, she stopped in her tracks, her expression turning somewhat strange.
"Are you really a newbie?"
Having experienced Da Xin's inexplicable disappearance behind her, Tang Cao is now wary of everything that exists.
Seeing Tang Cao's reaction, Xiao Bai smiled and nodded. "Not bad, quite alert. That alone makes you much better than other newcomers."
After a pause, Xiaobai continued.
"Don't worry, the creatures here can't simulate my presence. Even if they could, they wouldn't be able to connect with the Rainbow Crystal Flower."
Upon hearing this, Tang Cao looked down.
Sure enough, after Xiaobai appeared, a faint glow burst forth from the rainbow crystal flower, flickering like a heartbeat.
The surrounding magic flowed more naturally, as if it were cheering and jumping for joy.
Realizing this, Tangcao finally relaxed.
"Little White, waaaaaah!"
Tang Cao picked up Xiao Bai and kept rubbing her body against her face.
"This place is terrifying! You told me about the battles to become a magical girl, but you never mentioned encountering something like this. You have no idea how scared I was just now."
Listening to Tang Cao's tearful complaints, Xiao Bai rolled her eyes speechlessly.
The latest novel is first published here!
"I don't sense any fear from you at all; on the contrary, you seem excited and even enjoying it."
After being held by Tangcao for a while, Xiaobai finally couldn't help but break free.
"Alright, alright, stop fooling around. We're not really out of danger yet. If we want to rescue your friend, we need to break the restrictions here."
"Break the restrictions here?" Tang Cao tilted her head. "Little White, what exactly is this place?"
Xiao Bai looked around with a serious expression, then slowly uttered a word.
"This is the world of the surface."
"The world of the surface?"
Tang Cao was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but quickly realized what was going on.
"Could this place be connected to the underworld in some way? Could it be the stronghold of those heretical demons?"
"What are you thinking? Headquarters? If this really is the headquarters of the heretics, then we might as well just dig a hole and lie down here."
Xiao Bai glanced at Tang Cao, then said seriously.
"The surface world is the layer between the real world and the inner world, and it is also a buffer zone between deep consciousness energy and reality. It is not much different from the real world, but monsters still exist here."
"This setting looks familiar. It seems like I've played a similar game before," Tang Cao said, stroking his chin.
"Don't interrupt." Little White stretched out its paw and continued, "The monsters in the surface world are not heretics or demons, but rather reflections of the minds of all those who have mistakenly entered this place."
"So, when someone with negative energy enters here, this real world will also give rise to corresponding monsters, right? But I always thought that magical girls' battles mainly take place in the real world."
"Under normal circumstances, we do have to stay in the real world, after all, it is our last line of defense. But sometimes, magical girls also need to infiltrate other dimensions to save lives."
As he spoke, Xiaobai sighed again.
"Logically speaking, this should be the job of at least an elite-level magical girl. It's very dangerous for a newcomer like you to barge into this place."
"The surface world is different from the real world. It is filled with negative energy, which can also affect the magical powers of magical girls."
"Besides, this is an independent world. If you're not careful, you might never be able to get out of here. I can't find another magical girl to save you."
Tang Cao knew that this was her own fault. Not only had she wandered into this place by mistake, but she had also dragged Su Siyao into it. So she scratched her head a little embarrassedly.
However, looking at the little white dog in front of her, Tang Cao couldn't help but ask the question she most wanted to know.
"Xiao Bai, since this place is so strange, how did you get in?"
