Chapter 385: Time for Organizing Thoughts
The Hero Association is the most mysterious organization in the world.
Su Tianqing finally understood the origin of this saying.
I originally thought, how mysterious could a public hero organization be? Even the names of the registered heroes are on the official website, so it should be the most open organization.
However, after this morning's experience, Fox will definitely reflect deeply on the series of stereotypes about the Hero Association.
Putting everything else aside, this BOSS exudes an extremely terrifying sense of oppression just by standing there, and he can even reveal his and Xiaoyu's identities with a single sentence!
He even felt that he had known about Dandelion and Yue Tianxin's identities all along, and that he hadn't told Xiaoyu about it just to save face for himself.
And the mysterious envelope he gave to himself and Xiaoyu, and the achievement that the secret manual inexplicably unlocked...
[Achievement: Facing the Abyss]
Without any explanation or description of how to obtain this achievement, it seemed to appear out of thin air and was simply printed on the title page of the secret manual.
I didn't even know that the secret manual had any achievement aspect!
Most importantly, the "increased appearance rate of rare items" is an unexpected and exciting reward.
In comparison, the "Heartmoon Wand Ability Enhancement" seems less important.
The golden fox glanced at the cat girl who was sleeping soundly on the table beside it, then covered the cat girl with its fox tail to keep her warm, while having its familiar take out the secret book and carefully read through it.
I wonder if I can remove the "Guardian Star Mega Sale Pack" that keeps appearing in the hidden shop lately.
Five thousand Divine Stones to buy ten thousand Guardian Stars, and they can only be given to Xiaoyu as a consumable item for Starry Shadows. Which big grudge would buy that?
What's more, Little Fish also obtained a wonderful blue guardian star, which allows her to directly enter the Black Hole Cat form without even needing consumables!
"Just who is that chief committee member... and why would he give me such a valuable and mysterious gift...?"
As she browsed through the Secret Manual Shop, Su Tianqing muttered to herself in her mind.
Forget it, forget it!
Let me see what interesting things can be found in the hidden shop after the drop rate is increased!
Hidden shop, open!
[Rare Item: Mind Amplifier, 1000 Divine Stones]
Oh? The drop rate is pretty high. It's a rare item right away. Let me see what this thing is used for.
[For use in the Mental Image World: Increases the complexity of mental images and the speed of world creation, while reducing magic consumption.]
It looks pretty good, and the price is very cheap. I'll buy it and stock up. Maybe I can come up with some creative ways to play with the world of imagination in the future.
The next few were just commonplace items like "one-time monster enhancers" and "monster capsule gift packs" with unclear meanings, which didn't interest me at all.
Next up is the villain's activity for tonight!
Thinking about it carefully, there will probably be fewer people at tonight's event. What should we do?
The Qiu Gui team has returned to Chongqing. This morning, they even posted a farewell message, and the comments section was filled with mournful cries from Chengdu fans.
Fortunately, I had arranged to have a good interaction with Miss Qiugui, otherwise I really wouldn't have had the time to make a special trip to the mountain city to find them to record a program.
Hyacinth and the others don't have much to do, but if I ask them out, it's hard for me not to use them as guinea pigs for my magical little gadgets.
Since the current focus is on how to help Wang Xiaowang gain the belief of a magical girl, let's give the righteous magical girls a breather for now.
Only with sufficient rest can a more beautiful scene unfold.
"Alright! Let's have some rare time to slack off tonight! Let's carefully review the upcoming plans and make sure nothing goes wrong!"
...
night.
This seemingly simple problem unexpectedly troubled Su Tianqing for the entire day.
When should we trigger the monster capsules we've planted? How can we ensure that the Hyacinth Squad arrives at the scene later than the Foehn Squad? These are all questions that need to be considered.
Even as the two stood on the villain's rooftop, gazing at the bustling city below, with the setting sun bathing the entire city in golden light, Su Tianqing remained lost in thought.
"Little Fish, I want to ask you something."
"uh-huh?"
"During the time you were outwitting Bai Lili in Shanghai, did you ever actively try to arrange a fight with her?"
“…………”
Nan Jiayu hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the fox girl, unsure of how to answer the question.
Why did Tianqing suddenly ask about this? Could it be that she suddenly felt like looking up her past stupid things this afternoon?
Thinking of this, the catgirl immediately began to think carefully, her cat tail trembling nervously behind her.
Then answer honestly:
"Hmm...it's happened a few times."
"We both knew each other's identities. During my senior year of high school, I was busy studying and under a lot of pressure. Occasionally, I would call her directly and ask her to go to the suburbs to fight."
"Should we... arrange a fight over the phone?" Su Tianqing finally had a basic understanding of Maomao's past wild style.
"Yeah, she seemed to be under a lot of pressure back then, and we would play against each other for a long time. But she still lost more often than she won."
Nan Jiayu chuckled, gave the golden-haired fox a thumbs-up, and then said:
"But that wouldn't be good for either of us; it would just be a simple venting of emotions."
"Moreover, I didn't hold back back then. Once I almost seriously injured her, which caused her to stay in the hospital for two or three days."
"Hmm..." Su Tianqing remained noncommittal, her fox ears twitching twice.
"Did you visit Xiaoyu in the hospital afterwards?"
"Of course! Back in Guangzhou, I even went to apologize to her!"
The catgirl quickly chimed in, her nervous expression making Su Tianqing giggle.
Little fish, so cute, I'll make it!
The fox's tail stuck to the catgirl, and the cat's tail instinctively curled up, hooking onto the large, restless tail.
They were so affectionate, so lovey-dovey.
Rabbit and Night Mist are still not here today.
They mentioned on WeChat that they had been visiting Ye Lan's former orphanage director in the mountain city these past two days, which could be considered a way of sending New Year's greetings.
Aurora had free time, but in order to foster the relationship between her and Wang Xiaowang, Su Tianqing didn't interrupt her conversations with the dog-girl.
Tonight, Wang Xiaowang invited me and Xiaoyu to dinner, saying it was to thank them for the tuition assistance, and also brought along Aurora, whom we "bumped into" on the way.
The all-you-can-eat barbecue didn't cost too much, and everyone had a great time chatting and laughing, while also sharing many magical girl secrets.
Watching Aurora and Wang Xiaowang laughing, Su Tianqing suddenly had a strange feeling.
I feel like that old mother, racking her brains to sell one cabbage to another, even at great expense.
Raising a new magical girl is this troublesome!
Now all we have to do is wait for the friendship between these two roommates to gradually develop, which will definitely be a relatively long process.
As for how to pass the time while waiting, Su Tianqing already had a complete plan.
"Little fish."
"How about we go find the Burning Wind Squad tonight... and have some fun?"
