: Holy crap, a teleportation anchor point!

"Use the processed, tainted magic as the core of the crystal. First, wrap the core with my magic. Then, add a little of your magic as an outer layer. Finally, use my magic as the outer shell. A teleportation anchor point is now complete."

Wu An confidently spouted nonsense.

"Is...is this really going to work?" The listener clearly didn't quite believe her.

"Just do it."

"Alright..."

Putting aside the fact that unclean magic and magic will dissolve each other upon contact, and even if magical girls use magic to combine attacks, Yin Xi was hearing for the first time what Wu An said, which seemed to be a method of extracting a part of the magic.

Magic is a highly personal thing; a brief fusion is fine, but maintaining harmony for a long time is absolutely impossible.

Although he grumbled inwardly, he still did as he was told.

A moment later, a black crystal core containing a silvery glow floated in Wu An's hand.

"Wait a moment and see if you can respond to my access request."

Wu An placed the crystal core on the ground and retreated over a hundred meters away.

The silver magic power contained within the crystal core could be directly sensed. She tried to manipulate the magic power to make contact with it, and the next moment, a flash of silver light appeared, and Wu'an appeared next to the crystal core.

The silver magic within the crystal core dissipated slightly, but it did not dissipate or separate from the crystal. In fact, the two magics blended together perfectly.

Very stable.

By simply storing magic into it periodically, it can truly be used as a "teleportation anchor".

"How did you do that?" Yinxi couldn't help but ask.

Her spatial magic was highly manipulative, but for some reason, after coming into contact with Wu'an's magic, she became as docile as a domestic dog...

"Based on a heart of belief."

Wu An said indifferently that she didn't really understand either, but the description of the skill "Heart of the Other" in the "Leader" module was that it would enhance one's own magical power with the magic of one's "companion".

Activating a skill will imbue you with magical power, but magical power itself has a strong personal nature, and even if it is imbued with magical power, it will still cause a rejection reaction.

This skill seems illogical, but that's how it's described, which is why Wu'an had the idea; it's just that now he has the chance to try it out.

"When did you start lying to people too..." Yin Xi squinted, unable to accept Wu An's answer.

"Forget about the principles, as long as it works."

However, Wu An was too lazy to dwell on these things, and simply pulled Yin Xi along, making her keep injecting magic power into the crystal core.

"It feels like I have less magic power left to use."

Looking at the crystal cores scattered all over the ground, Yin Xi also realized the problem—a portion of her magic power had been separated. If her total magic power was 10 points, she could only use about 5 points of magic power to maintain the crystal cores.

"If you need to use it, just withdraw the magic whenever you want."

Wu An said something and rolled up the crystal core.

"I'm going to set up the crystal core."

"Hey, teleportation has a distance limit, don't set it up too far away."

Seeing her fly away without hesitation, Yinxi quickly reminded her, but she flew faster and faster and disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was unclear whether she heard her.

"Hmm... they really don't treat people like family, not even a thank you."

Yin Xi grumbled, then thought she should ask Wu An to treat her to a meal as a reward.

After the night the monsters attacked the city, Wu'an became even more diligent, and the scope of his monster-hunting expeditions extended beyond the southern district of the city.

These days, you can hear rumors about the "dark magical girl" just by walking a few steps down the street:

"Although it looks as ominous as a crow, its face really doesn't seem like something a human could have!"

"She's so cold, unlike other magical girls, but she still has a strange charm."

"It's true that Black Runner is powerful, but could you please stop acting like a kill-stealing dog? Every time I transform, she just appears out of nowhere and kills the monster... It's so embarrassing!"

Because of its unusually fast flight speed and its complete lack of interaction with others, it is very unsociable and impossible to catch up with.

Many magical girls gave Mu'an an unpleasant nickname: "Black Runner".

As one of Wu An's few close acquaintances, Yin Xi felt that she didn't actually know Wu An any better than anyone else.

Especially in the case of the purpose of no darkness.

Wu An said his goal was to become stronger, and the way to become stronger was to kill the Calamity Beast.

Generally speaking, magical girls become stronger through intense emotional fluctuations.

However, the magical girl's innate abilities, and even the speed at which she becomes stronger, are related to the wish she makes the moment she obtains the Heart Seed.

Yin Xi's wish is related to her admiration for Wu An, so staying by her side and watching her fight is the fastest way for Yin Xi to become stronger.

It's likely that Wu An's wish is related to hunting down the calamity beasts.

The problem is... Wu An has been hunting down calamity beasts, and she is getting stronger very quickly, but she has no intention of relaxing at all.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that after that night, the anxiety that already surrounded Wu An intensified.

When asked why, she said something terrible was going to happen, but when asked what it would be, she said she didn't know.

It left people completely confused.

"Why..."

Yin Xi sighed. She actually hoped that her and Wu An's advancement in rank would be slower.

Once someone becomes powerful enough, it becomes difficult for them to remain free, and they will inevitably be recruited by the Bureau of Control.

It's possible that Wu'an and I will be separated by vast distances in the future. If one of us is assigned to Jiangdong and the other to Jiangxi, then unless I go to Mankai, I won't be able to teleport there to meet.

"But what can I do? She wants to become stronger..."

Yin Xi took out the remains of the Immaculate Heart Flower, covered it with silver magic, and clearly felt a growing strength emanating from the Heart Seed.

The energy of the Heart Flower was a lot for her, and it was a bit difficult for her to digest it.

However, the greater his own power, the more he could help her, so the amount he inhaled each day was still the maximum.

"Our 100-day anniversary is in a month. How should we celebrate it?"

Yinxi's thoughts began to wander. She hadn't really paid much attention to these specific times before, but now her perspective had changed, and she wanted to leave some special memories on special occasions.

But considering Wu An's personality, he definitely wouldn't care about such things.

"Companionship is the greatest gift." Wu An would probably say that. Although it sounds nice, the human heart is insatiable and always wants more.

Even if we don't spend a whole day together, watching a movie together would be great.

Even though I've done more amazing and profound things, I have little experience with these "ordinary" things.

"We still need to take care of things ourselves, and not let her be too stressed."

......

In the days that followed, in most parts of Changming City, whenever a B-rank or lower disaster beast appeared, a mysterious female hunter would spawn and defeat it.

Originally, it was fine as long as it was limited to the south of the city, but as time went on, the scope of Wu An's interference expanded, inevitably causing dissatisfaction among some warmongers.

Some people even complained on the forum that she was too attention-seeking, but the feedback on the forum was lukewarm:

I actually wish our city had people like that.

[If you can't beat them, isn't it because you're less skilled?]

[If you don't like her, just beat her up. Your IP address is in Changming City; what's the point of posting about her online?]

I remember Changming City has a rather unique position within the city, so I have a feeling that Wu'an's actions will provoke a warning from the Bureau of Control...

[She looks a bit like "Hakimi the puppy."]

[Impossible. I've heard from seniors that "Little Dog Hakimi" is at least Tier 5. Wu An was circling around a Tier B disaster beast, so it's definitely not Tier 4.]

Could you please get her contact information? We're really short-staffed here, please! (Praying)

We're planning to ambush her somewhere, anyone interested?
