Chapter 323 Special Existence
Since leaving the dream world last time, Tang Zijun has not returned for a long time. Only Hyacinth is sometimes sent to that world alone by Chang Lei—she has to help the people of Black City with sowing.
To be honest, sending Hyacinth, who doesn't have much combat power, into the dream world alone is a very dangerous thing. However, after several experiments, Hyacinth has mastered the ability to "wake up" at any time.
This means that once Chang Lei sends her into the dream world, he doesn't need to set a fixed time for her. Whenever she wants, she can sever her connection with the dream world at any time, and her soul can return to her body and awaken.
In this way, Hyacinth's safety will be greatly enhanced. No matter what kind of entity wants to harm her, as long as it cannot abduct her from the dream world, it will not be able to harm Hyacinth in the slightest.
If it weren't for this reason, Tang Zijun and Chang Lei wouldn't have felt comfortable letting her run off to another world alone.
After deciding on their next course of action, Tang Zijun and Chang Lei left the mirror world. Luan Luan was fine, but Chang Lei had to send his mother back before dawn, otherwise there was a risk of being discovered.
Seeing Chang Lei's worried face, Tang Zijun gently patted his back. "Since I promised you, I will definitely do my best. Your most important thing right now is to take good care of Luan Luan."
Hearing this, Chang Lei sighed softly. "I understand. Actually, I'm already very happy that I was able to save Luan Luan. As for my mother, I had already prepared for the worst."
"Don't think too badly of the situation. Auntie has been able to live in that world for nearly ten years, which means she has adapted to it. At least for the time being, she shouldn't have any problems," Tang Zijun reassured her.
Chang Lei shook his head slightly. "That's true, but it's impossible for me not to worry. Even magical girls can't keep their bodies intact in that world, let alone my mother, an ordinary person..."
Chang Lei didn't finish his sentence, but Tang Zijun already understood what he wanted to say.
In any case, this communication with the Tree of Life, Trova, did bring Tang Zijun a lot of valuable information, and also allowed him to learn about some things that he had no way of knowing before.
Whether it's the identity of the Tree of Life, the past of the greedy, or some secrets about the Olympian gods,
These events only come to life when recounted by someone like Trova who experienced them firsthand.
It's a bit of a shame that Tang Zijun still doesn't know the specific details of the War of the Gods, which is the most crucial part of the mythological era, and Trova has lost her memories of that part.
Even so, Tang Zijun could deduce a general idea based on the existing clues, but as for the details, probably only those who had personally experienced it, like Trova, would know.
Thinking of this, Tang Zijun's mind immediately flashed with Shi's face.
That one in the shadow world...
Based on Lost's words and Trova's speculation, that god was most likely a survivor of the War of the Gods, and perhaps only he had the ability to answer her questions.
However, the other party's current state is a bit strange, and it's unclear how likely that guy is to cooperate with me.
With a mind full of information, Tang Zijun bid farewell to Chang Lei and returned to Yandu.
He originally intended to go straight home, but he suddenly remembered that Tang Cao and Qin Nan were still waiting for him in Yandu, and Katie had a lot of complicated procedures that required his presence.
The sun slowly rose from the east, and golden rays shone on the city, outlining the edges of many tall buildings with gold.
For the agents at the Bureau of Demon Surveillance, it was just another unsurprising all-nighter.
After swiping her card to verify her identity, Tang Zijun entered the Demon Surveillance Bureau building with ease. In the rest area on one side of the lobby, Tang Cao and Qin Nan had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as they met, Tang Cao excitedly approached Tang Zijun, hands on her hips. "Brother, where did you go? You disappeared in the blink of an eye!"
"I definitely have important things to do," Tang Zijun said, shrugging. "Deputy Director Chang took me to handle the aftermath of that train accident."
This is a top secret within the bureau, so naturally I can't leave without permission.
"But surely it's not like we can't even get through to the internal phone lines?" Tang Cao said with some suspicion.
The Bureau of Magical Investigations has too many secrets, so it uses internal communications. Six-star agents like Tang Zijun, who are on par with magical girls, can contact each other.
Tang Zijun reached into his pocket and realized he'd carelessly tossed his phone into the house. His face immediately fell in embarrassment. "Uh...maybe the signal wasn't very good. I didn't even notice."
"So you're back here now, has everything been resolved?" At this moment, Qin Nan came over and helped him out of the predicament.
Tang Cao's attention was also diverted. "Brother, tell me quickly, how did the railway station handle that train incident?"
"That train?" Tang Zijun scratched his head. He didn't know how to explain it, but he wasn't going to hide it from them anyway. After all, Katie would be his subordinate in the future, so he couldn't hide it from them even if he wanted to.
After a pause, Tang Zijun spoke up. "It's a bit hard to say, because of some experiments conducted by the bureau, that train has now become a magical girl, or rather, a magical mecha girl."
"ha?"
Tang Cao and Qin Nan exchanged a glance, but still couldn't help looking at Tang Zijun strangely.
Feeling their astonished gazes, Tang Zijun waved her hand. "I know how unbelievable this sounds. Believe me, I was stunned when I first heard it, and I still haven't recovered."
"No, is it even possible to awaken a train into a magical girl? Besides, that wasn't even a train, it was a surface world! This... this kind of thing..."
Looking at Tang Cao's face, which was filled with disbelief and utter surprise, Tang Zijun immediately pointed at her and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's exactly the look I had back then."
Tang Cao's face darkened, and she rolled her eyes.
"Okay, just kidding." Tang Zijun raised her hand and ruffled her hair, sighing. "It's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's just that it's a bit complicated to explain. Even the experts in the bureau don't know what's going on. They even said it seems to be some kind of unrepeatable miracle."
Seeing this, Qin Nan secretly twitched the corners of her mouth. She didn't believe a single word Tang Zijun said. What research in the bureau? Although those experts were indeed very capable, it was impossible for a group of people who didn't even understand magic to help someone in the real world awaken into a magical girl.
It's probably another idea that popped into Tang Zijun's head, and then her lackey Lao Chang acted as the one to make that dream come true.
However, despite her thoughts, Qin Nan didn't expose Tang Zijun at this moment. Instead, she asked curiously, "Where is that train... sister, where is it now?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun turned and replied, "She's still in a special area. Katie is a product of the rules of the surface world, meaning that the train is her true form, and she can't stray too far from it."
"Katie," Tangcao murmured, then looked up. "Is that her name?"
"Yes, that train was a KD-something model, so her name was chosen as Katie," Tang Zijun explained. "I see," Qin Nan said thoughtfully. "Then what will she do in the future? Such a big train must be very difficult to move around, right?"
"Because of my relationship with Katie, she is currently quite dependent on me. The department's idea is to include Katie in the Fantasy Society, making her a temporary member like me, which would make her easier to manage."
Tang Zijun spoke up. "But you're right, she's a bit troublesome to act on, so if we need her to take action, we need to report it to the bureau, otherwise it could easily cause misunderstandings."
"Join the Fantasy Society? Great! Great!" Before Qin Nan could even react, Tang Cao jumped up excitedly. "Our team has expanded again, and with such a special member at that!"
Tang Zijun said softly, "Don't be too happy yet. Katie has just been born and doesn't know enough about modern times. Besides, she's not human."
There are many things that don't align with our thinking, so we'll probably have to work things out gradually.
"What's the big deal? We're all on the same side anyway," Tang Cao grinned. "I believe we'll definitely become good friends."
"By the way, Tang-ge," Qin Nan suddenly asked, "Now that Katie has become a magical girl, she should have a corresponding rainbow crystal flower and a spirit beast, right?"
"Yes, the bureau uses the rainbow crystal flower from Ice City, and the spirit beast is the curly-eared rabbit from Ice City." Tang Zijun said, suddenly noticing that Qin Nan's expression was a little off, and casually asked, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing. Bai and I just ran into a strange sister last night."
Qin Nan shook his head, while Tang Cao continued, "Oh yeah, brother, let me tell you, that girl is amazing, like a reincarnation of the Yellow Wind Great Sage."
"Huh?" Tang Zijun didn't understand.
Qin Nan explained, "That sister looks only thirteen or fourteen years old, but her magic is exceptionally terrifying. Moreover, unlike ordinary earth elemental magic girls, her magic is sand manipulation, which is extremely powerful and destructive."
"There's such a thing?"
Nodding, Qin Nan continued, "Moreover, she didn't have any spirit beasts with her. I don't know why. It seems that she, like Katie, is a special existence within the Demon Surveillance Bureau."
Seeing Qin Nan's slightly serious expression, Tang Zijun also tilted his head thoughtfully. He really didn't know about this. Although he had established the Demon Supervision Bureau in a sense, the organization was so large and had so many people that even he couldn't possibly be in charge of everything.
Perhaps Lao Chang might have some information.
