Chapter 612 Fox Says Civil Engineering is Also a Kind of Adventure
[Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, dear viewers of Chengdu!]
[As you can see, it's time for Fox's long-awaited live stream! Do you have a lot to say to Fox today? Feel free to leave a message in the comments section and in the chat!]
Hyacinth calmly watched the live stream in front of her. The screen showed a brand-new villain rooftop live stream room with a newly designed live stream UI, which looked much more upscale than before. The bullet screen area even rotated through chibi portraits of other members of the villain team.
"Qiyun, how's the electromagnetic shielding on your end?"
The white-haired girl Messiah, standing to the side, glanced at her colleague by the window. [Electromagnetic] Qi Yun was sitting by the window, expressionless, watching the screen that was still showing a live broadcast, with intense and bright electric sparks bursting between her hair and fingers.
"I have blocked all electromagnetic communications in the entire city of Rongcheng, at twice the normal power," Qi Yun replied.
"...But the signal in this live stream room was not affected in any way." Messiah turned to look at the live stream on the screen, which showed no network issues, and said to Qi Yun.
The S-class hero, renowned for his electromagnetic control abilities, lowered his head helplessly, reduced the power of his electromagnetic screen back to its original level, and shrugged in resignation.
"There's nothing I can do. I've tried my best to block these signals, but as you can see, it doesn't show any signs of being affected at all."
Hyacinth and the others exchanged glances. Iris politely thanked Qiyun, and the members huddled together to discuss their next move.
After a long hiatus, while Chengdu was undergoing reconstruction, Xin Yuehu resumed her usual live-streaming activities, which was definitely not good news for the Hyacinth Team.
What exactly is she trying to do? Does this self-proclaimed villain intend to disrupt the reconstruction plan of Chengdu and interfere with the timely progress of the reconstruction work?
"We have to find a way to stop her from causing trouble. We can't let the reconstruction of Rongcheng be delayed because of her," Hyacinth said earnestly.
"But even so... I think we should see what Xin Yuehu is planning to do first. She might not actually cause trouble at a time like this," Nightingale added.
The group exchanged glances, nodded, and continued watching the live broadcast on the screen.
【Magical Girl☆~Rongcheng Reconstruction Adventure Team】
Today, Xinyuehu's live stream was entirely a warm-up for this event, with the host explaining the details of the event in the live stream.
To assist with the reconstruction of Chengdu, I, Fox, have decided to organize a fifteen-day event!
During this period, I will contact the Hero Association to understand the corresponding reconstruction needs and distribute them to everyone in the form of adventure commissions, providing corresponding prizes to all the magical girls who participate!
The prizes are diverse and plentiful, ranging from small and exquisite embossed badges to exquisite limited edition double figures of Hellcat☆Heart Moon Fox, and even a huge wall hanging of Heart Image Brawl. All of them are new limited edition gifts that are not available for sale in any online shopping mall.
"It's rare for her to do something good." Hyacinth commented after reading the event details of the live stream.
"I wonder what Xin Yuehu is up to. What is she trying to achieve by going to all this trouble to organize this event?"
"...Probably, it's for fun." Iris smiled slightly and said softly.
It must be said that Xin Yuehu's promotional activities have achieved remarkable results: the live broadcast took place at night, and that very night, major online media and forums rushed to report on the Chengdu Reconstruction Adventure Team's activities, causing its popularity to skyrocket.
[Heart Moon Fox's New Event! The Chengdu Reconstruction Adventure Team!]
[No prize for guessing: Who will take first place on the leaderboard? I'm betting on Nightingale.]
[Nightingale agrees], [The bag belongs to Nightingale], [If it's not Nightingale's, I'll eat the screen on the spot]
The forum was instantly flooded with such posts and replies. Some people even collected and compiled a super long list of all the gifts that might appear in the commissioned prizes from the subsequent updates of the live stream.
Hyacinth didn't have the leisure to scroll through the prize list, and she wasn't really that looking forward to getting a prize from Heart Moon Fox.
However, Nightingale and Arum were unusually motivated, and Iris seemed to be planning to join in as well. As the captain, she had no choice but to bring the rookie magical girl along.
the next day.
The temporary office hall of the Chengdu Heroes Association was packed with people.
"Please line up in an orderly fashion—those with the Star Shadow, come to my side; those without the Star Shadow, please line up on the other side—"
"Registered heroes can also participate in this event. Please queue up at the designated service window for heroes to grab a code."
A humanoid familiar holding a megaphone stood at the Hero Association's service window, shouting and beckoning to the noisy magical girls in the lobby.
The Hero Association had never been so lively: magical girls of all kinds and many registered heroes lined up in twos and threes, chatting and laughing about today's unexpected event.
After learning that Xin Yuehu had launched a relief effort, almost all the magical girls who had bought plane tickets and were ready to leave Chengdu chose to cancel their tickets and rebook.
【This is the only chance to get limited edition merchandise! And we're doing this for the reconstruction effort!】 The girls' rhetoric was remarkably consistent.
"Why are there so many people... what's going on..."
Hyacinth and her friends, who had just entered the hall, were stunned by the scene before them. They rubbed their eyes and, after confirming that they were not dreaming, exclaimed in surprise.
Normally, only the heroes on duty and staff members frequently enter and exit the association's lobby. Apart from meetings, you can hardly see many people doing business in the lobby. Even if there are people, they will quickly go to the corresponding floor via the elevator or stairs. It is rare for so many people to gather in the lobby.
"Everyone's here to collect commissions, right? Judging by this trend, we probably won't get any really valuable commissions today," Nightingale said, hands on her hips, looking quite disappointed.
"Don't worry, I heard there are tons of commissions available, and they even post new commissions every day. If you just wait a little longer, you're sure to snag a commission with great rewards," Iris said with a light laugh, trying to reassure her companion.
Hyacinth spotted many familiar figures in the line of magical girls:
"Little Red, what style of badge set are you planning to choose?" Amethyst asked the red zircon beside her.
"Of course it's our team's style! I love this so much, look, doesn't my look look amazing!" Red Zircon excitedly pulled out the Divine Stone and showed Amethyst the set contents displayed on the magic screen.
On the other side, Bai Lili and Mai Sui were also discussing together:
"Oh, you're here for the event too? I thought you'd choose to pay the association's publicity department to customize it." Bai Lili's sarcastic style was as usual.
"Can something custom-made be the same as something you get through your own efforts? You dare say you don't like this?" Wheat Ear got a little impatient and pointed at the limited-edition figurine on the screen, which looked quite exquisite.
The figure depicts the magical girl Musubi in her train cannon form amidst the shadows of stars. The pose is extremely dynamic, and the figure is adorned with light strips and lights everywhere. On other websites, this is an ultra-luxury model that would cost at least a year to purchase and require a deposit of over 800 yuan.
"Wow, yours is so cool! Why does mine not look as impressive as yours?" Bai Lili said, looking at her Starry Night figure on the screen with a hint of distress.
Although the figure of Lily Bai is also exquisitely designed—a pure white girl holding a staff, floating in the air casting spells with elegant and noble movements—it loses a lot in terms of imposing presence compared to the exaggerated train cannon of Wheat Ear.
Before the two could continue discussing whether the color schemes of Red Rose and Crimson Snow's Starry Shadow were too similar, a greeting came from behind them, causing them to turn around at the same time.
"Senior Bai Lili, Senior Mai Sui."
The iris waved politely in greeting, and the hyacinth followed beside her, returning the greeting with equal politeness.
"Hmm?...Oh my, I thought you two weren't going to participate in this. Do you two also want to collect these limited edition Xinyuehu merchandise?" Bai Lili asked curiously.
"I...I didn't mean to collect anything. I just wanted to see what Xin Yuehu was up to. If she put any weird stuff in the request, I'd rush over and beat her to a pulp!"
Hyacinth blushed slightly, as if Bai Lili's words had touched on some sensitive topic.
"Hmm...really flatten her? I think Hellcat is pretty strong." Bai Lili replied with a question.
The hyacinth fell silent instantly.
Fortunately, the girl's awkward atmosphere did not last. A loud and dynamic piece of music started playing, and the logo of Xin Yuehu's live stream appeared on the big screen. The title of "[Magical Girl☆~Rongcheng Reconstruction Adventure Team]" jumped and flashed on the screen.
[This round of commissions is about to begin! Please log in promptly according to your assigned number! The commission will officially begin in five minutes!]
"...Do I have to fight for this commission myself?" Hyacinth complained.
Iris and I were in line at the Starry Night window. The familiar was surprisingly efficient, quickly handing each of us a beautifully printed card with a number on it. The card was even custom-made with each person's portrait.
With thirty seconds left on the countdown, the hall suddenly fell silent.
Everyone logged into the dedicated commission-grabbing app, staring intently at their phones and Divine Stone screens, constantly refreshing the page, hoping to snag a valuable commission.
Even Hyacinth was stirred up by the atmosphere, feeling a sense of anticipation: What kind of commission will I get later? Will Heart Moon Fox put some strange content in the commission?
"Ten seconds left! Nine seconds!..."
"—Ring ring!!"
A bell rings, and the task is refreshed.
Hyacinth, quick-witted and agile, spotted a brightly lit commission appearing on the page and immediately clicked it, successfully grabbing the commission with the colorful glow.
"I got this! Great!!" Hyacinth cheered, raising her arms.
Seeing this, Iris immediately came forward, and the two of them looked together at the details of the colorful commission:
Client: Hellcat
[Seeking skilled fighters to spar with me]
[Additional requirement: Starry Night Shadows only]
Hyacinth looked ashen-faced.
