Chapter 294 Magical Mecha Girl!
Tang Zijun had considerable confidence in Lao Chang, especially knowing just how powerful he was in his prime. Otherwise, he wouldn't have proposed such an outlandish plan.
"Did it...it worked?"
After everything settled down, the golden armor slowly faded from Tang Zijun's body. A feeling of exhaustion washed over her, and Tang Zijun's body went limp. She knelt on the ground, panting heavily.
Old Chang wasn't much better off. Leaning against the car door, he slowly slid down to the floor. "Looks like it's a success. The contract is in place. Even if the Rainbow Crystal Flower reacts, it's too late."
After saying that, he looked at Tang Zijun again. "You're such a living dad... Hey, are you alright? You look like you've used up a lot of energy."
"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine after a rest." Tang Zijun waved his hand casually. This was the first time he had experienced the feeling of magic power being depleted. This feeling of weakness from the inside out made him not want to move a single finger.
The power of the Magic King alone was already the limit for modifying and influencing the entire surface world. Fortunately, Chang Lei was there to assist him; otherwise, he might not have been able to accomplish all of this.
His gaze swept around and finally landed on the little rabbit in the boiler—the other party still looked dazed and obviously hadn't recovered from what had just happened.
"Hey, rabbit."
"what?"
Upon hearing Tang Zijun's voice, the little rabbit snapped out of its daze.
Her ears twitched rapidly, and she looked up at Tang Zijun and Chang Lei in front of her, her eyes filled with shock and fear.
Although she was also a newly awakened spirit beast, strictly speaking a newbie, she was definitely not stupid. No one understood better than her how incredible what had just happened was.
"Looks like you should remember who we are now." Tang Zijun slowly stood up and chuckled.
The little rabbit stared at Tang Zijun with a strange expression, then looked at Chang Lei, who had already deactivated his transformation. After hesitating for a moment, it stammered, "You, you're all from the Demon Surveillance Bureau?"
"Yes." Tang Zijun didn't deny it; in fact, he had nothing to hide. "Let's get to know each other again. I'm Tang Zijun, the only six-star agent in the Demon Surveillance Bureau."
"Chang Lei, Deputy Director of the Demon Surveillance Bureau and Head of the Northeast Division." Chang Lei waved and smiled. "Perhaps you are more familiar with my other identity, Mr. Fraudster Harks."
"So...you, you really are a glutton?" The little rabbit's mouth dropped open, her worldview shattered, then she looked at Tang Zijun. "And, and you, are a man who can use the powers of a magical girl?"
A greedy person and a magical boy formed a magical girl organization. Why would I have such a dream?
"Deputy Director Chang will tell you the specifics in detail. You just need to know that we are on the side of protecting the real world," Tang Zijun said.
He didn't intend to explain too much at this time, after all, it wasn't just the little rabbit in front of him that was suffering from hatred—the outer world was also in a state of chaos at this moment.
A dimension born of negative energy has now had its energy center transformed into a source of magic. This change, from the inside out, has altered the entire train.
The biggest difference is that Tang Zijun felt a new life slowly emerging from this train.
Tang Zijun slowly turned around and pushed open the door connecting the front of the train to the carriage.
Immediately afterwards, in a golden carriage, each "passenger" revealed themselves in the glow, along with a group of train attendants in azure uniforms.
They were both male and female, their bodies were somewhat ethereal, and their surfaces shimmered with a faint fluorescent light, making them look like some kind of holographic image.
These people didn't speak, but just quietly watched Tang Zijun, their eyes filled with respect. These spirits, born from memories, established a connection with Tang Zijun at this moment.
Tang Zijun looked at them and nodded gently.
At this moment, the entire train began to glow faintly, and countless pipes formed a unique magical loop. Surging magic power quickly converged along the pipes, and a beam of light burst forth from the crowd.
The light grew brighter and brighter, seemingly about to devour the entire carriage. Every corner was tinged with a strange color, and Tang Zijun could feel that all the magic of the train was concentrated in this one place.
In the light, a vague outline began to appear, and as the outline gradually became clearer, it slowly transformed into a slender figure.
The roar of the train seemed to soften at that moment, and the light began to swirl like a nebula, forming a huge vortex. The figure was at the center of the vortex, gently taking its first step forward.
Bare feet emerged from the light, as if stepping on clouds, light and graceful.
The moment her toes touched the ground, a pair of tall boots enveloped her, revealing her long, straight legs. Her skin glowed softly in the light, and then her skirt billowed out from the radiance.
Unlike any magical girl outfits Tang Zijun had ever seen, this one had a skirt that resembled a formal dress, seemingly modified from a train conductor's black uniform, exuding a touch of formality amidst its cuteness.
The girl had a slender waist and beautifully shaped shoulders, giving her an air of nobility. Her face emerged from the light, her skin as white as snow, her bright eyes as clear as stars, and the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, revealing a faint smile.
Her hair cascaded down from the light, falling like a waterfall over her shoulders; it was jet black and glossy, radiating a captivating sheen.
She emerged from the light, each step imbued with an ethereal magic.
The girl stood in the center of the train carriage, her eyes quietly looking at Tang Zijun in front of her, revealing a profound feeling. Her appearance brought an unusual vitality to the entire train.
The "passengers" and "train conductors" around her lowered their heads, like princes and ministers surrounding a queen.
The girl tilted her head slightly, and then the figures began to dissipate one by one, their forms slowly fading from the air and disappearing from the spot.
After doing all this, the girl looked at Tang Zijun again.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
"Owner."
After an unknown amount of time, a voice as clear as a spring murmured out and flowed into Tang Zijun's ears.
"Wow..." Chang Lei, holding the rabbit, came closer, looking at the girl in front of him with surprise in his eyes. "This is the first time I've ever seen an avatar from another dimension. I never imagined that magic could do this."
"The power of magical girls is a miracle in itself," the little rabbit explained, standing in Chang Lei's hand.
Although she still finds it hard to believe that she could actually sign a contract with a train, now that it has happened, she can only accept it.
Moreover, as the only spirit beast in the world to have signed a contract with a mecha girl, for some reason, the little rabbit felt a little excited. "Thank you, Master."
The girl spoke again.
"For a long time, I have been living a chaotic life, wandering endlessly in the curse of time, not knowing where I was born, nor where I will disappear."
"You gave me a new life, allowing me to truly step into this world. My life belongs to you, and I will dedicate everything to you."
"No, no need to be so polite." Tang Zijun felt a little uncomfortable under the girl's intense gaze, and he quickly waved his hand. "Um,"
How are you feeling right now?
"Thank you for your concern. I feel great now. I've never felt this good after being in a daze for centuries." The girl gently raised her hand, and a golden light gathered in her palm.
Tang Zijun tilted her head and leaned closer to the little rabbit. "We awakened the earth element, right?"
"I think so..." The little rabbit looked at the magic in the girl's palm, feeling a little uncertain.
"What do you mean by 'should'? Can't you see the contract you signed?"
"I... I didn't sign a contract with the train either. The awakening of elements comes from the combination of the talents of both the spirit beast and the girl. I used to be an earth elementalist, but this train... is actually made of metal," the little rabbit murmured.
"That's true..."
Tang Zijun stroked his chin, then looked at the girl.
"Can you tell me how you feel right now, what's the situation with this train, and what's the situation with the other passengers? I want to get to know you, or rather, this world."
"As you wish, Master..."
"Um, just call me Tang Zijun. 'Master' sounds too weird," Tang Zijun interrupted the girl.
"But isn't it a bit disrespectful to call you by your full name..."
"It's okay, it's just a name. My friends all call me that." Tang Zijun shrugged.
"A friend?"
At this moment, Chang Lei couldn't help but whisper, "Speaking of which, shouldn't we give this girl a name, and this rabbit too?"
Chang Lei's words reminded Tang Zijun, and the little rabbit beside her immediately perked up. "I have a name! I have a name!"
"What's your name?" Tang Zijun, Chang Lei, and the girl not far away all turned their gazes over.
The little rabbit stood up and patted its chest with its short paws.
"When I was at the pet store, everyone called me Curly Ears. What do you think? Isn't it a nice name?"
After a long silence, Chang Lei turned to Tang Zijun with a serious expression. "I think it would be better to reconsider this."
"I think so too." Tang Zijun nodded seriously.
"Hello!"
"Alright, alright." She patted the little rabbit's head. "We know you have a name now. We're thinking about what to name your partner."
"Actually, Master... Lord Tang Zijun, I also have a name." The girl clasped her hands together and said softly.
Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun and Chang Lei exchanged a glance and looked at the girl with curiosity.
"I..."
The girl looked up.
"My name is KD(III) model steam train."
