The correct way to open the magical girl

"What does the Lost Land mean?" Li Xuan asked in confusion.

"Let me test your geography knowledge. How many islands are there in the Kingdom of the New Sun?"

"Four, counting only the big islands." Li Xuan had a good knowledge of geography, so he answered immediately.

"Your memory is correct, but if it was thirty years ago, the answer to this question would be five." Li Sijie said, holding up five fingers.

"Five? That's impossible. I remember there were clearly four on the map." Li Xuan said puzzledly.

"Yes, there are only four on the map, because there is another island that was 'eaten'."

"Eat it?"

"We all know that magical girls are fighting against monsters all over the world. Once a monster appears, it must be destroyed immediately. Then the world will repair the damage caused by the monster and erase the related memory. But have you ever thought about what would happen if a place was completely conquered by monsters?" Li Sijie asked.

"Don't keep me in suspense anymore and just tell me directly." Li Xuan asked curiously.

"The answer is that it will disappear from people's cognition, just like you don't remember the New Sun Five Islands. About one-seventh of the world's land has disappeared from people's memory due to the attacks of monsters. This is the so-called Lost Land."

"Since it has disappeared, how can we get there?"

"Those places didn't really disappear, it's just that the world modified people's collective memory and closed that space. But the place didn't really disappear, it really exists on the surface. Although most of the people in it are dead or crazy, there will always be people who find a way to survive, and even magical girls will be born there. But overall, it is a world ruled by monsters, full of chaos, brutality and war." Li Sijie replied.

"I've never been to the Lost Land, but I heard from my companions who have been there that it is simply a living hell. Many people have been transformed into monsters or their minds have been corroded. There are horrific scenes everywhere. Is it really a good idea to go to such a place? If Jingjing sees that scene, the bad impact on her will be immeasurable." Lilika said worriedly.

"Mom, I'm not that fragile. Besides, don't we have someone to protect us?" Alulu herself looked indifferent.

"That's okay. We have the Evil Land of Falsehood, so we can let Alulu stay here. But what I'm more concerned about is...are there any cute girls in that kind of place?" Li Xuan asked worriedly.

"You really are such a fool. You're still thinking about women at a time like this... Is this kind of thing so important?" Lilika complained.

"This is a very important thing for me." Li Xuan said seriously.

"Don't worry about this. There are many lost lands in the world. Guess why I recommend you to go to the Kingdom of the New Sun?" Li Sijie said with a smile.

"I do not guess you guess guess?"

"I guess you would."

"You are not me, how do you know I would guess?"

"You are not me either, how do you know that I don't know and you will guess?"

"Are you two children?" Lilika interrupted helplessly.

Li Xuan and Li Sijie smiled at each other. After laughing, Li Sijie rubbed her face and explained:

"Don't worry. Although there aren't many magical girls there, the population base is there. There are at least a few hundred of them, which is enough for you to cause trouble. And you don't have to worry about being hunted down by the church. You can boldly appear as a monster without worrying about it."

When Li Xuan heard this, he immediately felt relieved: Li Sijie herself was also a pervert, and she would not have gone there if there was no pretty girl.

"Also, although there are fewer magical girls, there are enough monsters. Moreover, the monsters there have already developed a basic social structure, unlike their counterparts outside who only know how to destroy," Li Sijie added.

"You mean... bubble monster girl?"

"Yes, I stayed there for a while when I graduated from high school. It is ruled by seven powerful monsters, and other monsters respectfully call them 'Warmasters'. Among the seven warmasters, there are at least three females. In addition, there are many monster girls with decent looks to enjoy, which is one of the reasons why I recommend you to go there." Li Sijie said with a smile.

"Monster girl... Hey, that sounds good." Li Xuan became interested as soon as he heard it.

"Oh my God, you two are really... really hopeless." Lilika looked at the two of them helplessly, and couldn't help but worry about the future of this small organization.

"Since you have decided to go, you have to make some preparations in advance. After all, it is a place blocked by the world, and ordinary space magic can't get there. I'm not sure whether your teleportation can locate there." Li Sijie said.

"You have to tell me where it is first." Li Xuan said.

"It's probably here." Li Sijie dipped her fingers in tea and drew the outline of the four new islands. Then she drew an island in the northeast that Li Xuan had never heard of.

"Let me give it a try." Li Xuan opened the map mode in his mind and tried to locate the place drawn by Li Sijie.

Chapter 261 Preparations before the Transition

Li Xuan concentrated on searching and indeed felt some unusual spatial structures at that location.

The feeling was similar to Black Cat's awakening, but on a much larger scale, as if a large space was hidden.

Although Li Xuan tried very hard to search, there seemed to be only ocean at that location, and he could not reach the lost land no matter what.

"No, I can't find the coordinates for my teleportation." After trying for more than ten minutes, Li Xuan gave up helplessly.

"Look at it from a bright side. Since you can't teleport in, it won't be that easy for the church to get in either." Lilika comforted.

"My barrier magic can temporarily lift the shield in a very small area, but it only lasts for a short time. So before going in, I suggest you make full preparations." Li Sijie said.

Li Xuan nodded. Since the Lost Land was a very chaotic place, he did need to stock up on some supplies - at least he needed to store more food. After all, the creative mode could only produce inorganic matter, and it could not be brought out of the evil land of delusion.

"Let's wait until the witches wake up before we talk about this. It's better for everyone to discuss this kind of thing. I can't think of it so comprehensively at the moment." Li Xuan asked.

"Let me provide the funds. Although you can't take the real estate with you, you can still withdraw the money in the account - it's a pity that the perfume business can't be done." Lilika said.

"Thank you very much, Ms. Lilika. I will lend you this money. I will definitely return it in the future."

"Mr. Li is so stingy. What if the other person doesn't let you have sex with him? Will you not return it to him?" Li Sijie teased.

"I'm already yours, so why shouldn't I return it to you? It's just that I have a lot of stuff at home, so I'd have to trouble you to move it yourself." Lilika said shyly.

"Okay, let's go now. Every second we delay increases the risk." Li Xuan stood up and said.

"I won't go. I'm a little sleepy. I'll find a place to take a nap and wait for you to come back." Li Sijie yawned and stretched lazily with big movements on purpose.

"No, anyone can choose not to go, but you must go with me." Li Xuan lifted Li Sijie's chin and said with a smile.

"What? I've worked hard all night, and you won't let me get some sleep?" Li Sijie said aggrievedly.

"I'm afraid you're not thinking about sleeping, but sleeping with the witch? I think leaving you here alone is no different from putting a wolf in a sheepfold." Li Xuan said with a smile.

"You've seen through my thoughts." Li Sijie's face turned red when his thoughts were exposed, and she had no choice but to follow him obediently.

After arriving in Qinghe City, Li Xuan finally understood what the so-called "a lot of things" meant.

Lilika came to the Kingdom of Gold with her remarried mother. Her family was originally a builder. When the family business was passed to Lilika, she found it increasingly difficult to collect payments. She thought that the industry was not doing well, and she didn't know much about construction, so she thought about changing careers.

It happened that the developer of a shopping mall was in arrears with the project payment and was considering using the house to repay the debt. Lilika took a fancy to the location of the shopping mall, so she sold her company's shares, bought the shopping mall and operated it herself, which has been very successful over the years.

From time to time, shops in the mall would close down and choose to use goods to pay off their overdue rent. Most of these goods had already been sold, but a considerable portion was still piled up in the warehouse - that was how Wu Yan got the game consoles she had moved in.

And now, Li Xuan needs to move all the things in the warehouse to the evil land of falsehood.

There were so many and so many things that Li Xuan had to build a separate warehouse on the vacant land of the second phase project to store Lilika's things.

In addition to all this, there was also the stuff in her house - several large closets filled with clothes alone, not to mention two cars and many other things.

After moving, Li Xuan looked at the things piled up in the warehouse and sighed, "You are indeed a rich woman. It's amazing that you can hold back. You have such a big family business and you don't even think about keeping a gigolo or something."

"Who do you think I am? Even if I don't consider myself, I have to consider my daughter's feelings." Lilika said disdainfully.

When the three of them sealed the warehouse door, Li Xuan just happened to feel that the witches' mental communication channels had been restored, which meant that they had awakened.

Li Xuan immediately ordered all the witches to gather on the playground.

The witches who rushed over were still in a daze. Their memories were still stuck at the time when they were swallowed by the cat bag, and they had no idea what happened afterwards.

But they also quickly understood one thing: since they woke up in the evil land of falsehood, it meant that the battle was over and their master was the winner.

"Master, who are these people..." Qi Mo saw some unfamiliar faces and asked softly.

"This is the new witch, Ms. Lilika. Some of you already know her. And her daughter, Ms. Alulu. Let's get along well with each other." Li Xuan introduced Lilika with a smile, and then pushed her to the side of the witches.

Alulu also sat next to the black cat consciously, and the two of them, who both called Lilika mother, hugged each other in a friendly manner.

"As for this..." Li Xuan looked at Li Sijie. Although they had met many times and had done almost everything except home base, Li Xuan still could not accurately describe the relationship between them.

Although this woman's XP has been completely opened to him, she still adheres to the mysterious way of the seal system, always giving people a feeling of being close yet distant.

"I'll do it myself." Li Sijie stood up, put her hands in front of her, and bowed slightly to the witches.

"My name is Li Sijie, I'm Mr. Li's secretary and a magical girl of the Sealing Department. I'm honored to assist Mr. Li in rescuing everyone this time."

She spoke these words very modestly. It was clearly her own credit to rescue the witch, but she did not take credit for it. She even stood behind Li Xuan after she finished speaking, looking like a subordinate.

Li Xuan originally wanted to thank her, but seeing that she herself was unwilling to say anything, he had to go along with her and briefly mentioned the process of defeating Maya, only talking about the result of rescuing the witch and the subsequent attack on the church.

Hearing that their protagonist was openly against the church, the pro-war members Yao and Wu Yan were already rubbing their hands in excitement, while the conservative Qi Mo and Tang Xi were frowning, as if they had realized the price of doing so.

"Anyway, because of what happened just now, we can no longer stay in Qinghe City. I plan to take everyone to the Lost Land of the New Sun Country. Supplies are scarce there. You can think about what you need first, discuss it carefully, and then give feedback to... to Ms. Lilika."

Li Xuan thought about it for a moment and still felt that Lilika was more suitable. After all, most of the other witches had little social experience, and it would be better to leave things like purchasing to reliable adult women.

Chapter 262 A humiliating defeat

While Li Xuan was busy helping Lilika move, the magical girls of the Huahe City Church fell into deathly silence.

The S-rank was defeated, the church headquarters was captured, and even the metaphor machine was lost.

This humiliating defeat will probably become the biggest topic in the magical girl world in a few days.

The always straightforward archbishop will be furious at that time, and the entire Huahe City Church will be in danger of being closed down.

The disheveled magical girls sat in the auditorium with their knees hugged, looking at each other, but no one could come up with an idea.

It was unknown how long it took before Shen Liang mustered up the courage to stand up.

In terms of position, she was the most senior one here, except for Nanamiya Maya who was still asleep. And in terms of age, she was also the most mature one.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, she finally made up her mind and said:

"Everyone, we are all in this together. If we report this failure, none of us will be able to get away with it."

Shen Liang looked at the four foreign A-level magical girls. Getting their support was crucial to this report.

"You mean to falsely report the results of the battle? How can that be possible?! It will affect the judgment of the top leaders, and our own conscience will not allow such a thing..." said an A-level magical girl in disbelief.

Shen Liang had expected this kind of reaction. Magical girls are the purest and most upright people. It is quite difficult to ask them to lie.

Therefore, she planned to use the shame of being humiliated by monsters as a starting point to persuade them to cooperate with her.

"No, we didn't falsely report anything. The loss of the signal machine and the fall of the church are both facts, and we reported them truthfully," said Shen Liang.

"Then what do you mean..."

"The part where she was abused by the monster was not part of the battle. In my opinion, there is no need to report it. Besides, the church has always respected the personal privacy of magical girls, and doing so is in accordance with the church's principles." Shen Liang continued.

The magical girls looked at each other and exchanged opinions with their eyes - it was obvious that none of them wanted to tell others about the abuse they had suffered from the monster.

"I think it's okay, but there has to be a reasonable explanation. Why did the monsters let us go after conquering the church? We can't just say it's because the monsters are kind-hearted, right?" another A-level magical girl questioned.

"The monster was targeting the metaphor machine, so after defeating us, it went straight to the metaphor machine terminal. Later, Miss Maya arrived in time and the monster immediately escaped. What do you think of this explanation?" Shen Liang said.

Although this statement may be suspected of whitewashing the battle report, it was after all to cover up the fact that they were humiliated by monsters, and the four A-level magical girls had to nod in agreement.

"But, will Miss Maya agree?" One of them said worriedly to Maya who was still sleeping.

"I think Miss Maya will agree. Although we haven't been together for a long time, I can see that she is a kind child and will definitely understand our consideration of saving face." Shen Liang sighed at this point:

"Besides, with monsters so lustful, do you think a beauty like Miss Maya would be spared?"

The four A-rank magical girls remained silent after hearing this. As Nanamiya Maya's subordinates, they neither tried to persuade her when she insisted on acting alone, nor did they provide support when she chased the monsters. In the final analysis, they still blindly believed in her strength.

Once the top management blames them, they also have an unshirkable responsibility.

"How do you think of this report? Miss Maya ordered the four of you to protect the church, and she personally chased the monster, but unfortunately she fell into a trap. The enemy took advantage of the opportunity to attack the church. We tried our best to resist, but the terminal of the display machine was still stolen. Then Miss Maya came to rescue us." Shen Liang continued.

The four A-class magical girls nodded silently. This statement also took Maya's image into consideration. Although falling into the trap was also a failure, it was much better than being captured by monsters directly at S-class level.

Shen Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She stepped forward to untie the gag and used purification magic to wake up Nanamiya Maya.

"Have you... also been killed by the monster?" Maye felt a chill in his heart when he saw the disheveled people and the unknown liquid all over the ground.

"This is all my fault. I underestimated the enemy's strength, which led to everyone..." Maye covered his face with his hands and said in pain.

"Ms. Maya, please don't blame yourself. This is not your fault." The magical girls hurried forward to comfort her.

Shen Liang also stepped forward to comfort her, and then expressed his own thoughts, hoping that Maye could help cover it up.

"How can this be? Facts are facts, and any distortion is a lie. False information may lead the church's top leaders to make misjudgments. Have you thought about this result?" Maye frowned.

"Ms. Maya..."

Shen Liang didn't expect Maye to refuse outright. In her impression, Maye should be the kind and easy-to-talk type, and she also took her face into consideration in her statement.

However, unexpectedly, when it comes to matters involving monsters, Maya's attitude becomes resolute and she refuses to give in at all.

Fortunately, the four magical girls under Maya's command also tried to persuade her at this time. Their thinking was still the same as Shen Liang's. They hoped that she would at least not report the incident of being humiliated by the monster.

Seeing his subordinates saying the same thing, Maya began to hesitate, so he asked:

"Ms. Shen Liang, can you tell me the real reason for doing this? It's okay for other people, but I don't think you are the kind of person who lies to cover up the past because you are afraid of losing face."

Shen Liang was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Zhen Ye to understand her character in such a short time. She had to admit in a low voice: "I want to keep the position of bishop..."
