Chapter 495 The Joyful March Hare
Chapter 495 The Joyful March Hare
[Task Chain 9: A New Look, Completed]
As part of her daily routine of checking the secret manual, Su Tianqing successfully obtained the long-awaited reward from the quest chain.
The rewards were fairly standard – a large number of Divine Stones and Ancient Divine Stones. For me at this point, a few thousand Divine Stones would be considered a very ordinary reward.
It seems even the secret manual acknowledges the rabbit's March Hare form. This fox should stop worrying about such trivial matters and focus on the important matter at hand.
What? You're asking what my important business is?
Question: When you get a brand new powerful piece of equipment or draw a new character, what is the first thing you do?
The best approach is to max out equipment enhancements and character development first, then take her or it to a training dummy to test DPS!
So here comes another question: what is my personal wooden stake?
"Of course, it's you, Miss Hyacinth."
"Are you kidding me?!"
The hyacinths cried out, eager to rush up and grab the swaying fox's tail.
This is the center of Snow City. The stage for the Monster Contest, which was set up a few days ago, has not yet been dismantled and has now become a popular spot for magical girl fans in the surrounding area to take photos.
According to unreliable sources, the magical girl team from Shenyang and neighboring Liaocheng also secretly came to visit, but were not recognized by any fans.
Today's villainous activities utilized this stage that hadn't yet been demolished, and the theme was simple and easy to understand—
"It seems like it's been a long time since we've fought. Miss Hyacinth, do you miss the feeling of sparring with cats?"
"...Which dimension of me are you talking about?" Hyacinth retorted helplessly.
Shingetsuko issued a challenge today, and as a magical girl traveling through Snow City, she absolutely had no option to run away. In addition, with two juniors watching over her, Hyacinth had no choice but to bite the bullet and come over.
When the team arrived at the stage in the city center, they were greeted by those familiar faces:
Besides the three—Hellcat, Heartmoon Fox, and Cheshire Rabbit—the two Alices and the highly noticeable Fenrir are equally unsettling.
Alice's progress has been nothing short of phenomenal—ever since the appearance of Black Alice, who calls herself Jack, their teamwork has become increasingly seamless.
From initially being unable to defeat the support Nightingale, to now being able to gain the upper hand in practice matches against Tiannanxing by virtue of their numerical advantage, their progress has been incredibly rapid.
As for Fenrir...
Since the Port City incident, no one has dared to fight Fenrir anymore, which has greatly troubled a certain M-wolf.
"To attack the city while the magic storm is raging, Kokoro! Aren't you afraid some troublesome monster will appear later!?"
Summoning her courage, the hyacinth still chose to voice the questions in her heart.
The golden-haired fox girl grinned, her laughter ringing out.
"Hehehe... Didn't I already deploy defensive measures throughout Snow City yesterday? Miss Hyacinth, you're so forgetful."
"Don't give me that! Who knows what kind of people those guys you summoned are? What if you secretly summoned other weirdos during the magic storm!" Hyacinth persisted.
"Still the same as before, if you come out with such a strong aggression, you won't be liked by everyone."
The fox girl's smile remained unchanged, but she had unknowingly taken two steps back, her original position now occupied by the hellcat.
"In that case, why don't you have some fun with the cat tonight? The cat is really looking forward to a three-hundred-round battle with you!"
"You!..." "What 'you'? Take this!"
Before Hyacinth could finish speaking, the deep blue cat paw gauntlets were already within reach. She hurriedly raised her shield to meet the attack, but was still sent flying by a heavy cat punch.
"Whoa!"
"Bang!!"
Iris glanced in the direction the hyacinth had been sent flying, and Hellcat had already accelerated to catch up, and the two were locked in a fierce battle.
Compared to the hyacinth, the iris was more worried about another figure who had already set its sights on it:
"The Cheshire Rabbit..."
The iris whispered to itself, releasing a magical shield, wary of any attack that might come at any moment.
The rabbit girl didn't rush forward; she simply floated calmly in mid-air a short distance away, watching the pure white magical girl in front of her.
Why haven't they called yet?
Normally, Cheshire Rabbit's fighting spirit would be just as high as Hellcat's, so why is he so listless and silent today?
"Something feels off."
I casually cast a magical shield on the hyacinth and let her go play with the hellcat, while the nightingale turned her attention to the Cheshire Rabbit.
According to intelligence, Cheshire Rabbit has obtained a blood-red Mystic Code form, which may bloom with starlight shadows like Hellcat.
The reason why Xin Yuehu chose to provoke someone today might be that he wanted to test just how strong Cheshire Rabbit's Starry Shadow really is.
Without a doubt, the first thing to do is to use Iris to open the attack, and as the support, I must ensure the safety of Iris.
After all, hyacinths are quite resilient even if left unattended.
Nightingale silently cast two layers of magical shields on the iris, preparing a third while discreetly observing the Cheshire Rabbit's reaction.
But why is she frozen like this, showing no intention of attacking at all? Even Tian Nanxing and Alice have already slipped away to the side, carrying small stools to prepare to watch the show!
"...Miss Iris."
After a long silence, Cheshire Rabbit finally spoke.
"And—there's Meng Donghua over there."
"Mmm!"
Iris was stunned for a moment, then heard a rabbit squeal beside her, and realized that Dream Winter Flower was actually with her.
"Miss Meng Donghua? When did you arrive?" Nightingale was also startled, having not noticed Meng Donghua's presence at all before.
"I...I secretly followed you along the way...I'm sorry..."
The girl nervously gripped her wand, curled up into a small ball, and said hesitantly.
"Sigh...didn't I tell you not to come today? Why did you still come?" Cheshire Rabbit sighed helplessly.
"I really, really want to see my senior's battle, and I... I am, that..." Meng Donghua stammered, her whole body trembling with nervousness.
Seeing the interaction between the two rabbit girls, Nightingale showed an expression of great interest.
"Hmm? You two seem to have a good relationship," Nightingale said.
"Ah...yes, we get along really well." Cheshire Rabbit nodded, her gaze still fixed on Meng Donghua.
"That's why I told you not to come today. What if something unexpected happens later?"
"It's alright! I'll watch the battle closely from the sidelines, so you don't need to worry about me, senior!" Meng Donghua quickly replied.
"Well……"
As the two rabbits started chatting amongst themselves, Nightingale and Iris exchanged a glance, neither of them knowing what they were talking about.
"But there's always a strange feeling," Lin Muyao whispered into Hua Ling's ear.
"Iris, did you sense it? It's like they've met somewhere before."
"Didn't Meng Donghua say last time that Cheshire Rabbit taught her invisibility magic? I think that's when we met," Iris replied.
"What are those two doing? Didn't Xin Yuehu say she was coming to cause trouble today? Could it be...?"
Their whispered conversation suddenly stopped.
The reason is simple—after being comforted by Cheshire Rabbit, Meng Donghua obediently flew to Alice and Tian Nanxing's side.
The four children sat in a row, and Meng Donghua even took out a small notebook, looking like she was going to seriously record and learn from her senior's fighting style.
"Where were we, Miss Iris?"
The two turned around, and a scorching wave of heat rushed towards them. The blood-red figure suddenly appeared from the flames.
The bunny girl's ruffles became elongated, flowing with the crimson glow of stars, like the distant Milky Way where nebulae swirl.
Magical Girl Cheshire Rabbit☆Shadow of the Stars
【The Crimson March Hare】
"Come on, Miss Iris."
The rabbit girl reached out and grasped the giant warhammer, a pleased smile spreading across her face. She uttered the words that should have come from the heart-moon fox's mouth:
"Please me."
