Chapter 66 Mother Fox Will Protect You
Chapter 66 Mother Fox Will Protect You
"Run!"
"It's a weirdo! A weirdo is attacking!"
The students' terrified screams reached Su Tianqing's fox-like ears.
...Damn it, the black wolf monster's magic missiles are way too powerful.
Feeling the magical impact that still made her unable to stand up even through a magical shield, Su Tianqing simply remained lying on the humanoid pillow, not wanting to move.
This terrified Lin Muyao.
Sister Tianqing! Sister Tianqing, wake up!!
Lin Muyao was anxious to speak, but the severe spasm in her throat prevented her from uttering even half a syllable. She could only shake the motionless golden fox in her arms.
Tears rolled in the eyes.
It wasn't just the pain from the fall, but also the anxiety about the current predicament.
"Ouch, stop shaking me... stop shaking me..."
Su Tianqing hummed and waved her hands repeatedly, stopping Lin Muyao from continuing to shake her around like a rag doll.
This fox is already petite! If you shake me any more, I'm afraid I'll fall apart!
The golden fox looked up and glanced at Lin Muyao, whom it had tackled to the ground.
Her eyes were full of tears, whether from fright or pain, it was hard to tell, but she looked very sad.
"Don't, don't be afraid, Mu Yao, I'm here..."
Propelling herself up from the girl's body, Su Tianqing rubbed her sore bottom and whispered words of comfort.
A terrible crater was blown out of the dormitory entrance, the door was completely blown open, the posters on the wall were torn to shreds, and the room was a complete mess.
Lin Muyao felt a little sorry for him.
Those posters were all found by myself at the flea market.
Although it's not worth much and the quality is far inferior to the latest merchandise I bought today, it still shows that a lot of effort was put into it.
But now is not the time to feel sorry for these things!
The girl tentatively got up, helped the golden fox in front of her to her feet, and looked out through the exaggerated tear.
"...!!"
As night fell on the campus, a three-tailed black wolf of exaggerated size was strolling along the main road.
Its blood-red pupils were filled with starlight, and just looking at them could make you feel a tremendous sense of oppression.
Is that the weirdo?
Lin Muyao swallowed hard and subconsciously took a step back.
The thing that magical girls have been fighting against all along... is it really this terrifying...?
"It seems we... can't get out through the main gate..."
Su Tianqing glanced at the completely destroyed dormitory door, grabbed Lin Muyao who was stunned by the strange man, and moved deeper into the dormitory.
The two huddled in a corner of the bathroom, turned off all the lights, and didn't make a sound.
The sounds of students fleeing had gradually faded into the distance, leaving the dormitory building deathly silent.
Su Tianqing could almost hear the girl's rapid heartbeat beside her.
Lin Muyao huddled in the corner of the bathroom, hugging her knees and trembling.
Fear, horror, bewilderment.
Thinking of the attack that had destroyed the entire dormitory terrace, Lin Muyao felt a strong sense of fear and lingering dread.
Even with a Guardian Star in his pocket, he couldn't suppress the feeling of powerlessness in his heart.
Lin Muyao's understanding of strange people has always been based solely on animation and news.
The ability of the Magical Girls and the Hero Association to react in a very short time, quickly suppressing and eliminating monsters before they can cause widespread destruction, has led to some misunderstandings among ordinary people.
"These weirdos are nothing special. Any random hero or magical girl on duty could easily handle them."
— Lin Muyao had also had this thought at one point.
But when faced with such a terrifying monster in person, and with nothing in its path for the time being, this naive idea is shattered in an instant.
"——"
Scared.
An uncontrollable fear.
Tears silently streamed down Lin Muyao's face.
The girl tried to wipe her eyes blankly, but large tears welled up in them.
I want to cry, but I can't make a sound.
Su Tianqing tilted her head, looked at the girl beside her who was silently weeping, and silently moved closer.
The golden fox reached out and gently cupped Lin Muyao's cheeks.
"Little Muyao, are you scared?"
The girl gently shook her head, unwilling to admit it, but the tears on her face didn't lie.
Her fox ears drooped down, and she reached out her hands to embrace the weeping girl.
He was much smaller than her, so the hug was quite awkward, but it still eased Lin Muyao's trembling considerably.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
"Sister, I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere."
"The heroes and magical girls will be here to save us soon, don't be afraid."
Lin Muyao kept her eyes tightly closed.
Only when she was being hugged by this little fox could she realize how petite her body was.
Light and soft.
Despite her slender and delicate body, she endured a past she could hardly imagine, and even managed to comfort herself in such a dangerous situation.
"Don't be afraid...don't be afraid..."
"If you want to cry, just cry in your sister's arms."
"Once you've finished crying, the heroes will come to your rescue..."
The gentle pats, the soft comfort, and the smooth touch of that fluffy tail gradually calmed Lin Muyao down.
The girl suddenly realized that she had never experienced such a gentle embrace before.
This...motherly embrace.
In the girl's memory, every time she saw her "mother," she was met with a look of disgust and disdain, as well as slaps on the body from time to time.
Get out of here, you're an unwanted child.
The woman said this last sentence to him before turning and leaving.
Does a child who is unwanted not deserve a mother's hug?
Could the embrace of this radiant fox sister, who was gently comforting him like the sun, compare to that of his mother?
Lin Muyao already had the answer in her heart.
"...Feeling better now?"
As if sensing that the girl in her arms had stopped sobbing and trembling, Su Tianqing stopped whispering comforting words, released her hands, and sat back down next to Lin Muyao.
Su Tianqing smiled gently, put her finger to her lips, and gestured for silence.
"Then let's just sit here quietly and wait for rescue."
Lin Muyao nodded silently, curling up her body without making a sound.
however.
In the midst of this deathly silence, footsteps suddenly echoed in the dormitory.
"Tap...tap...tap..."
"!!!???!"
Lin Muyao's back tensed up, and cold sweat instantly covered her back.
Su Tianqing was also taken aback, but upon hearing the light footsteps, she immediately realized who was in the dormitory.
The villainous magical girl, her own ally, [Hellcat]!
broken!
While I was busy comforting Lin Muyao, I completely forgot to send a magical communication message to the cat!
She probably thought tonight was the perfect opportunity to replenish her magic!
"rustle……"
The sound of rubbing something as you pick it up.
Hellcat picked up the dusty picture card from the table and, with its cat eyes, carefully examined the magical girl depicted on it.
"A picture book? ...What an interesting kid."
"Come out, I know you're in this dorm room, don't keep me bored."
"Hellcat said softly."
The room was filled with a strong magical aura, and with the doorway damaged by an unknown strange person, the child's only option was to cower in the bedroom and wait for rescue.
Nan Jiayu casually tossed the picture card in her hand and walked towards the restroom.
.
Lin Muyao clutched the Guardian Star tightly, trembling.
Su Tianqing didn't dare to breathe loudly, her mind racing as she considered possible countermeasures.
"Come out, I know you're in there."
The Hellcat's voice came from outside the door.
Lin Muyao peeked out through the crack in the door, swallowed hard, and dared not and could not respond.
The Shrike of Hell.
That was Kokoro's companion, and also a villainous magical girl.
But unlike Xin Yuehu, who has never harmed innocent passersby—
According to the records of the Shanghai Heroes Association, the Hell Shrike's record of attacking passersby is quite impressive.
Transform! Transform!
Lin Muyao attempted to use the Stargazers to transform her guardian star.
But the golden cross remained completely still and dim.
I still haven't gained its recognition.
Even with crisis looming and a dangerous figure lurking outside the door, he still couldn't gain the Guardian Star's approval.
What to do?
Is this... the end...?
"...I'll count to three."
"After three calls, don't blame me for being impolite."
Hellcat raised its paw, ready to smash open the door in front of it with its cat punch.
"one."
Lin Muyao's forehead was covered in fine sweat.
"two."
A golden figure suddenly appeared before her, startling the girl.
"three."
Lin Muyao saw the face of the golden fox and was once again held in the arms of this petite fox girl, just like a child being firmly protected by its mother.
--don't want.
The girl screamed silently.
Sister Tianqing, no.
Stop protecting me! The person outside is dangerous!
"...I'm coming in now."
The cat punched and smashed the door open.
A loud noise echoed through the cramped bathroom.
Upon seeing the cat-like fist imbued with astral magic, the girl's will reached an unprecedented peak.
—I want to protect her.
Only I can protect Sister Tianqing!
As long as you can gain recognition, you can definitely do it!
Lin Muyao gripped the cross star tightly, offering her heartfelt wishes to the stars.
Answer me, Guardian Star!!
A faint light flashed across the starry sky.
A pale yellow glow emanated from the girl's palm!
At the same time, Hellcat smashed through the door and burst in, but suddenly stopped at the entrance.
It wasn't just because I saw a very familiar golden figure, but also because of the light that suddenly lit up in front of me!
A pale yellow magical girl, and the golden-haired fox she turned around to protect.
And Nan Jiayu, who was inexplicably present at the bathroom doorway and hurriedly withdrew her strength for fear of hurting her, paused briefly.
Then, astral magic gathered at the tip of the girl's wand, forcing the Hellcat to dodge at full speed!
"Stay away from us!!"
A magical impact! It blasted countless fragments and rubble!
