During the practice, the flow of time seems to be much faster.
It seemed like just a blink of an eye, and the day they had agreed to go to the headquarters of Anjianyuan had arrived. Ji Hui and others, who had packed their luggage in the morning, left the Demon Eye House in the car arranged by Anjianyuan and headed towards the airport little by little.
"I heard you gained a new ability?"
Duncan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head slightly and asked Ji Hui, who nodded slightly.
"Well, almost. It's the ability to materialize mental power."
"Spiritual power materialized?"
Ji Hui's words also aroused the interest of Charles, who came with him as a royal researcher.
"Could it be something like telekinesis?"
"Hmm... not quite the same. That one is a higher-level ability. As for this one, let's wait until we get there. I can't use it in the car."
Ji Hui shook his head slightly, causing Charles to show a somewhat regretful expression.
But even so, Ji Hui definitely did not intend to show his abilities.
Although theoretically it would be fine if it turned into a button inside the car, in that case, I would definitely lose something very important.
As for Ophelia, who knew the truth, she naturally knew the reason behind his words, and she couldn't help but look sideways at Ji Hui who looked embarrassed.
Moreover, when she thought of the scene during training, the collision that had left a deep impression on her at that time subconsciously emerged in her mind.
Well, it seems that having a strong memory is not a good thing sometimes. The shape of the chariot-like steel column rushing towards her, as well as the blood grooves and curvature on it, are still lingering in her memory.
It is said that the tenants who stayed in the House of the Demon Eye had all suffered his attacks to some extent. Could it be that this was some unwritten custom?
The thoughts that emerged in her mind made Ophelia shake her head slightly. She looked at Chizuru Hazen who was sitting next to her, trying to divert her attention.
"call"
While deliberately controlling her breathing, Chizuru Yuzen also raised her hands, allowing the red magic power to surround her palms, gradually forming the shape of a swimming fish.
Unlike Ji Hui's completely unstable power, her magic power as a magical girl is quite stable, so she can practice controlling it even in a slightly shaking car.
So while she was watching, she would occasionally give instructions on the other person's movements, continuing the guidance that she had been carrying out a few days ago.
That look also attracted Duncan's attention. As he watched her teaching, a thoughtful look slowly flashed in his eyes.
However, his action of turning back was also noticed by Yu Mingxue, Mi Lulu and Funado Rika who were sitting in the back seat of the car, which made the former ask hesitantly.
"Mr. Duncan, what's wrong?"
Yu Mingxue's voice made Duncan realize that his gaze might be a little rude, and he shook his head slightly.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a little sentimental. It seems Miss Ophelia has been quite happy with you these past two days."
"From this point of view, her attitude should be able to serve as strong proof that headquarters views the existence of the Demon Eye House with good intentions."
"You actually arranged her to the Demon Eye House with this in mind."
Ji Hui raised his eyebrows, allowing Duncan to speak without any hesitation.
"Of course, since you're already at a disadvantage in public opinion, you really need a heavyweight to lead the charge. In this regard, Ophelia is clearly the best candidate."
The discussion about herself made Ophelia turn her head slightly and answered calmly.
"Duncan, I have no intention of getting involved in your open and covert fighting. My friendliness towards the House of the Demon Eye simply represents my acceptance of Ji Hui and his people's current lifestyle and attitudes. It doesn't mean I ignore the potential dangers they pose."
"You'd better not use my name and words to mislead others and use me as a shield."
"Yes, please rest assured that I will seriously consider this matter."
Her words made Duncan nod immediately, and he spoke calmly and seriously.
It was like the attitude of a student listening carefully to the teacher's words, which made Charles, who were used to seeing him as the person in charge of various plans, and Sean, who was driving, look at him with a strange expression. They couldn't help but look at him with unprecedented respect.
It seems that he really has great respect for Ophelia.
Recalling the attitude Duncan had shown when they had talked, Ji Hui couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.
"So, is there anything you want to remind us of when we go there this time?"
Having become somewhat accustomed to the scenery outside the window, he asked curiously, causing Duncan to nod slightly.
"Of course, the reason we asked Charles' team to come with you is to showcase the research results of our collaboration with the House of the Magic Eye."
He pointed to another bus following behind their car and gestured.
"And Sean too. This time, all matters related to your headquarters will be handled by him and another member of the Dark Mace Garden. However, she is also in another car."
Having said that, he paused, as if he had thought of something, and asked subconsciously.
"Come to think of it, you only had a bachelor's degree in your previous world, right? How much do you remember about your major?"
"Unfortunately, I'm a liberal arts major, and most of what I learned is basically no longer applicable after leaving my original world."
Ji Hui spread his hands and said helplessly.
"As for the language, I've pretty much mastered it now. I have no problem with listening, speaking, reading, and writing in daily life. You can rest assured about that."
His words made Duncan fall into deep thought, and after a few seconds, he nodded slightly.
"Well, I think I have an idea of your abilities."
"You guys shouldn't be discriminating against people based on their academic qualifications, right?"
However, the question he just asked still made Ji Hui feel a little uneasy, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Not really, but I did forget to ask if you have any experience in diplomacy and psychological counseling. That's what most people consider."
"So in a sense, the fact that you're a newbie makes people feel more relieved."
"It's more accurate to say that they think I'm easy to deal with."
Ji Hui shrugged slightly, and Duncan did not argue or refute anything. He just turned around slightly and looked at the private airport hidden in the wilderness that was slowly appearing in front of the car.
"Get ready to get out of the car, it's time to get on the plane."
Chapter 353 Vehicle Killer?
Since it was a plane specially used by Anjianyuan, there was no need to wait for a long time. They just found a seat at random, and Ji Hui and others rose into the sky with a rapid push on their backs.
Among the group, except for Rika Funado who was quite scared and held Mi Lulu tightly beside her, everyone else was very calm.
For magical girls like Chizuru Hazen and Ophelia, moving at high speed is as common as eating. The latter even flies much faster than an ordinary passenger plane. For her, flying is just like taking a walk.
As for Milulu, she has wings after all, so she is not too afraid of the sky.
Ji Hui said that compared with the bombardment of various kinds of magic, flying really had no effect on him at all.
Only Funado Rika is really careful in this regard. Even though her body is weakened, she can still rely on inertia to stay in the plane for a short period of time. If the time is a little longer, her whole body will directly penetrate through the plane and float for a long time before she can barely return to land.
Therefore, for her, who was used to her physical weakness, this plane trip was likely to be a subconscious reaction, and she would be directly thrown into a strange place hundreds of kilometers away. She had to hold Yu Mingxue and Mi Lulu by her side at all times, and she also tied a few straps around her body as a reminder so that she would not forget.
However, the ones who helped tie her up were Chizuru Yuzen and Yu Mingxue, and their experience in tying people up came from Mi Lulu, so the straps were like straitjackets, revealing Rika Funado's curvy figure that was usually hidden under her loose skirt.
"Rika, you've never been on a plane in your life?"
Seeing her frightened look, Chizuru Hazen, who was sitting opposite her, asked curiously.
"I've only been on it once, and back then airplanes weren't as common and convenient as they are now, so the feeling was completely different."
Shaking her two feet wrapped in furry boots, Rika Funado explained while getting used to the feeling of walking on her own two legs as a human again.
"And the facilities here are much more luxurious than they were back then."
"Really? I feel fine."
Ji Hui, who was sitting in the row in front of them, turned his head slightly and spoke curiously.
Apart from being able to move around a little more freely, and the fact that there was more space between the seats and the chairs were softer, he really didn't feel there was much difference from an ordinary passenger plane.
"If by luxury you mean large massage chairs, ultra-high-definition monitors with movie sound systems, various wine cabinets, or even an entertainment hall, then unfortunately, there are none of those things."
Duncan, who was sitting opposite him, just shook his head slightly, took out a few bottles of drinks from the thermostat beside him, handed them to Ji Hui, and asked him to give them to the girls sitting behind him.
In the cold environment outside, the comfortable feeling of the warm milk touching the palms made everyone look comfortable.
"But this plane is indeed well-equipped with facilities like freezers, a kitchen, and a lounge. Above that, it's just some flashy stuff."
"While we do have luxury airliners for show, we don't advocate them, and neither do our managers. Imagine a dedicated, high-tech, entertainment vehicle for just one person. It's basically useless, other than being a waste of space and a bad influence."
Duncan paused slightly, as if remembering something, and then spoke.
"What's more, in our eyes, that kind of thing is no different from a high-end coffin prepared for last resort pleasure."
His words also made Ji Hui slightly stunned, and then he showed a thoughtful expression.
"You guys can see it quite clearly."
"Those who can't see clearly are the luckiest who, at the end of their lives, still feel that their enjoyment was worthwhile. Most, however, while enjoying themselves, fear having everything taken away from them. Ultimately, with guilt and anxiety, everything they originally had is taken away, and they are reduced to facing the end they have imagined and feared countless times."
Looking at the blue sky outside the window, Duncan murmured slowly.
"As for depravity, if someone can still harbor such depraved thoughts after being attacked a dozen times, then they deserve to die."
The words that seemed to hint at some bad luck in the past made Ji Hui's mouth twitch slightly.
"We shouldn't be that unlucky, right?"
Duncan turned his head slightly, and his calm gaze made Ji Hui feel more and more guilty.
"I can only say that, apart from the necessary living facilities, the aircraft is basically equipped with escape and recovery devices for after a plane crash, including a small escape plane for use in emergencies."
"Of course, you can relax a little. After all, it's Ophelia who's following us. She can be said to be our greatest guarantee."
"Even if you say so"
Ji Hui's expression became even more conflicted. Although he knew that Ophelia was so strong that even five of them combined couldn't beat her, he still felt uneasy when he thought that the plane might crash.
Wait, when my mental power materializes, is it similar to a stand in some sense?
Hmm....a vehicle with a Stand user
Ji Hui's face suddenly fell. Looking at Duncan in front of him who looked like he was used to it, he said pitifully.
"If you have some free time, could you teach me how to use a parachute or something?"
"Someone will come to give you a safety demonstration later, so don't worry."
Duncan didn't react at all. After saying this, he lowered his head, picked up the tablet in his hand, and seemed to be immersed in his work.
"If you feel tired, you can take a nap in one of the lounge rooms. The room number is the same as the key you were given when you boarded the plane. We still have at least 10 hours to fly, so it's better to rest up before that."
Seeing that he seemed to have already started working, Ji Hui felt it was inappropriate to disturb him any further, so he had to stand up. After saying something to Chizuru Yuzen and others behind him, he walked towards the lounge.
After successfully finding my room and opening the door with the key they gave me, a room with two single beds and a desk came into view.
They are embedded in the wall, including the water bottles and trash cans under the desk, which are also embedded in the slots to prevent them from falling and colliding.
“Isn’t this pretty good?”
Looking at the room which was much better than he had expected, Ji Hui said with some emotion, sat on one of the beds, and looked at the layers of cumulus clouds passing by quickly outside the window.
Apart from anything else, this was my first time traveling far away from home since arriving in this world, and I felt quite excited.
That slightly happy thought lasted until the scene in front of him was suddenly stained with a light grayish white.
Chapter 354: The Devil Outside the Machine
To be fair, Ji Hui has only seen the fallen demons and extraterritorial demons that are truly endangering the world very often.
Since he first came to this world, he has dealt with magical girls more often. The only time he really fought against the extraterritorial demons was when he fought the Eye Demon.
At that time, it was Chizuru Hazen who was responsible for fighting the fallen demons that appeared.
Including Liliana, it would be more accurate to say that they were fighting against special magical girls rather than against fallen demons, not to mention the Starry Church that came later.
This naturally also includes the fact that the attack power of District 45 itself is very small, and his presence has attracted many magical girls to Yanming City, thus raising the security level. But no matter what, he has almost never seen the real arrival of the Gray Realm and the fallen demons.
But even so, seeing everything around him dyed gray and white, Ji Hui reacted immediately and realized that it was completely different from the gray and white produced by his use of time stagnation.
Moreover, outside the window, the gigantic eagle-shaped fallen demon, its body covered in blood-red black feathers, exploded, and its open beak emitted dark magic.
"Fuck!"
The almost sudden appearance of the scene frightened Ji Hui so much that he cried out. When the opponent's huge body almost hit him in the face, his eyes instinctively lit up.
The beam of light penetrated the thick outer wall of the plane and spread out directly outside the window, allowing the gray-white barrier to cover the original world. It expanded in front of the fallen demon, directly stopping the black lightning that was about to be spewed out of its mouth, along with part of its eagle beak.
bang————
With its mouth completely stuck, the fallen demon instantly struggled and flapped its wings, stirring up the airflow. Ji Hui hurriedly held onto the bed beside him. Amidst the violent turbulence, he watched the stalled fallen demon disappear directly out the window.
