Chapter 620: Chapter 291: Major Family Events III: Night of the Witch (Part 6)

October 31st, 7:08 AM, 34th floor of the Superhero Association, Temporary Operation Meeting Room.

Lan Ou, Bai Yi, Octopus Man, Red Giant, and numerous other superheroes gathered here.

The gold medal Commander “Che Zhengchen” was assigned the duty of emergency, becoming the acting Commander-in-Chief for this sudden incident.

He leaned over the podium, scrutinizing the dense reports on the tablet with a solemn voice, “The Magical Girl Alliance has already issued an emergency evacuation notice targeting the city center.”

“They have used magic cards in various parts of the city to create four massive Transmission Magic Arrays in advance. Unrelated citizens only need to step into the magic arrays to immediately leave the center of Huanjing.”

Che Zhengchen paused slightly at this point.

He spoke with concern, “Despite this… There are simply too many residents in the city center. The four magic arrays alone can’t evacuate all the residents in time, meaning we must buy time for those who have not managed to leave yet.”

As he said this, he adjusted his black-framed glasses and looked up from the screen of the tablet.

“Currently on standby in the Huanjing Association branch building, and with ranks no lower than C-class, there are only five superhero squads in total. Teams led by ‘Balloon Man,’ ‘Octopus Man,’ ‘General Lingdong,’ ‘Bai Yi,’ and ‘Red Giant’ are present. As distinguished individuals who are often active in Huanjing, you must have a certain impression of each other, so I won’t introduce you further.

“However, there is one thing I must declare before the operation commences: the risk of death in this aid mission is extremely high. If any of you present wishes to withdraw from the mission, I will bear no grudge. As the Commander-in-Chief, I will allow any one of you to leave the ranks.”

After finishing, Che Zhengchen lifted his head slowly and surveyed the assembled superheroes.

Finally, he smiled warmly, “I understand. Now let me announce our mission: Our task is to aid the Magical Girls of the Alliance, ensuring their successful arrival above that enormous stage.”

He paused: “Similarly, the three leaders of the magical girls will also rush here to support–according to the intelligence I just received, they are on their way to Denmark, England, and Iceland, dealing with giant magic power-driven dolls set in advance by the doll witches. It won’t take long for them to return to Huanjing. We must stand guard until their return.”

Saying so, Che Zhengchen displayed live footage of the three villages and towns in Denmark, England, and Iceland.

Bai Yi looked up and saw those grey-white giants on the footage, inhaling sharply, thinking that even the three leaders might not be able to quickly defeat these dolls, right?

“What about the other magical girls?” Balloon Man, with his plump belly wrapped in a yellow uniform, asked in a deep voice, “Commander Che, they’re not just sending us to die, right?”

“They are right outside.”

Che Zhengchen pushed his glasses up on his nose and pointed out the window with his hand.

Everyone followed his finger, only to see Magical Girl Kokuyo Sakura, Liu Huazi, Xiaohongmao, Qili, and others floating in mid-air with magic power. Their silhouettes were sharp, and as their skirts fluttered, their eyes quietly gazed at the distant Witches’ Night.

“Understood. Can we move out now? I want to flatten those witches.”

Red Giant, wearing a red X-shaped mask, crossed his arms and said coldly.

“Don’t be so hasty, let’s follow the Commander’s orders,” Octopus Man said. His hair, as always, was a mess, and his eyes, as always, were languid.

Che Zhengchen took a deep breath and locked eyes with Kokuyo Sakura outside the window.

He turned back and said, “Before the operation starts, let me reiterate our goal: to hold on until the three leaders of the magical girls return to Huanjing, and to provide cover for these magical girls to approach the floating platform temporarily named ‘Witches’ Night.'”

“Then let’s move out. Although that so-called ‘Witches’ Night’ has been stationary in mid-air since a moment ago, showing no response, we’d better strike first, as time is of the essence. After all, we do not know what those witches will do next.”

Dressed in Extreme Ice Armor, the hero “General Lingdong” of the Quasi Round Table spoke slowly, moving towards the exit of the meeting room.

At this moment, his heart was filled with a trace of excitement–if he could achieve outstanding feats in this Catastrophe Level event, then he would be able to advance to become a hero of the Round Table Council, as a matter of course.

Without a doubt, this battle would be the final barrier to his entrance to the Round Table.

At this time, Lan Ou was leaning against the window of the operation meeting room, his gaze obliquely watching the stage setup for Witches’ Night outside.

“I’ve been meaning to ask you, what exactly is that thing?”

Bai Yi came over and pointed at the red and blue battle suit dog on Lan Ou’s shoulder.

“Lightning Dog,” Lan Ou spread his hands, “uh… no, it changed its name, now it’s called Magic Lightning Dog.”

“Woof!” Yuri barked.

Telekinesis Sister, with her arms folded, glared at the red and blue Lightning Dog on Lan Ou’s shoulder and said with annoyance, “You always manage to do these strange things.”

Bai Yi shrugged, “Forget it, we all know comrade Lan Ou likes to pull off unexpected stunts.”

“By the way, did you find your sister?” Lan Ou raised his hand to scratch his forehead and suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi’s expression darkened slightly.

He said, “No, I’ve been unable to contact her for the past few days, perhaps, as you said, it’s related to these witches.” He then asked, “What about your sister?”
