“Get lost.”
Seeing this, Laige Caicai actually stopped her spell and abandoned the idea of continuing her attack.
Even though she had previously said she would kill without mercy, she ultimately held back.
In front of the cameras, she had already displayed the absolute power of a mage, and finally she had to show a bit of a mage’s composure and magnanimity.
“You’re good! We’ll see about that!”
Bulade, seeing the situation was unfavorable, immediately twisted his body and crawled away on all fours, fleeing into the distance.
Only when he was far away did he dare to utter a harsh word.
The other streamers from the Muscle God Cult, seeing their boss flee, also scrambled up from the ground and fled together.
Their panicked and miserable appearance truly resembled a pack of homeless dogs.
“Eldest Sister? Why did you let them go?”
Laige Yulian asked, somewhat puzzled, stepping forward.
“Reel in the big fish with a long line. These are just small fries,”
Laige Caicai replied.
“That really doesn’t seem like you. I actually thought you would kill them,”
Laige Yulian said with a laugh.
“I didn’t say I wouldn’t kill them. It’s just that the venue now isn’t suitable to display our full strength.”
Laige Caicai smiled coldly.
“Don’t you think they’ll go back and continue streaming, provoking us again? At that time, we can annihilate them with even more justification.”
“Hehe, I see. As expected of Eldest Sister.”
Laige Yulian now understood.
So letting them go now was so that later, on a grander stage, we could kill them again.
It was like wiping out the enemy team but not pushing the base, letting them respawn then wiping them out again.
That was the true way to destroy both body and soul.
After all, there were still a group of injured apprentices on the ground, and Lu Xiya had been knocked unconscious.
They couldn’t just leave them alone.
After a while, the academy’s medical vehicle finally arrived belatedly and took away the Internal Affairs Department students and Lu Xiya.
The Internal Affairs Department also sent a batch of people temporarily, including the vice minister.
“Do you know there’s a traitor in our house? That third squad leader is the mole. He deliberately led this team and Lu Xiya into an ambush.”
Laige Caicai immediately launched into a scolding.
Although she was only a captain in name without real power in the Internal Affairs Department, she could still scold a vice minister.
“Third squad leader… Ouke? Why?”
The vice minister asked doubtfully.
“Why don’t you dig him out and interrogate him to find out?”
Laige Caicai didn’t want to say more.
She first got on the medical vehicle to accompany Lu Xiya back to the academy.
[Insult Female Lead No. 2!]
[Quest Requirement: Scold her awake until the medical vehicle arrives at school.]
[Task Success Reward: Maximum Mana Value +1.]
[Task Failure Punishment: Jump off the vehicle.]
Just as she sat down, a system task immediately popped up.
It came at a really bad time, and the quest requirements were somewhat annoying.
“You’re really hopeless. I clearly taught you powerful spells. Why didn’t you use the gun magic I taught you instead of that broken knife?”
Laige Caicai questioned.
“…”
Lu Xiya lay on the hospital bed with no response.
“You really have no talent at all. You can’t even beat this kind of Esper. You’ve disappointed me greatly.”
Laige Caicai taunted.
“Your magic is a complete mess.”
“…”
Still no response from Lu Xiya.
She was sleeping soundly.
“Your massage technique is terrible.”
Finally, Laige Caicai ran out of ideas.
She leaned down and whispered into Lu Xiya’s ear.
“!?”
Hearing this, Lu Xiya suddenly woke up with a start, eyes wide in fright.
Unexpectedly, she actually woke up.
Laige Caicai was also startled.
Unexpectedly, it was effective.
It seemed that in Lu Xiya’s heart, this matter really bothered her and left a grudge.
Although the task was completed, Laige Caicai felt that her relationship with Lu Xiya had suddenly become awkward.
The rest of the journey was silent as the ambulance drove back to Demon Academy.
“Recover quickly. We still have to go eradicate the enemies root and branch. If you can’t make it, if you can’t get up, we’ll go ahead without you.”
Laige Caicai got off the vehicle with her hands behind her back, saying coldly, putting pressure on her at the end.
But inwardly, she sighed helplessly.
This time, the system had disgusted her.
The hatred value of Female Lead No. 2 toward her had definitely increased a lot.
From now on, it would probably be much harder to make her obedient.
Muscle Ability Users VS Academy Mages!
This title dominated the trending list for several days.
The always mysterious mage community this time made a high-profile move, directly engaging the Espers in battle.
But the final outcome was not what everyone expected—they had hoped to see that mage dethroned.
On the contrary, that blonde mage launched a fierce offensive against the Esper group with an unseeably domineering slash.
Relying on her own strength alone, she completely shattered the enemy line of several dozen people like a force of nature, staging a shocking one-versus-ten overwhelming victory.
Instead, this warmed the reputation of mages—more precisely, the popularity of that blonde mage rose, since she was also beautiful.
However, the Muscle God Cult certainly wouldn’t back down.
After rolling back to their guild, they started streaming and vented their rage at mages from behind the screen, saying they were bullying too much, winning unfairly by using staves and equipment to oppress Espers.
But this claim actually fooled many ignorant netizens.
The netizens didn’t know that staves were just bluffs in the magic world—the stronger the mage, the less they need a staff.
This time they stopped pretending, spreading all kinds of slander and rumors.
Their mouths were truly foul.
However, online public opinion was no longer one-sided as before.
A large number of voices supporting mages appeared, and many netizens flooded the Muscle God Cult guild’s livestream to start a crazy confrontation.
For a moment, the livestream environment was extremely chaotic.
Although it was already a cesspool of the internet, now it was a cesspool riot.
Meanwhile, all three Moffett sisters were grounded by Principal Dorothy.
A magical barrier was placed around their villa complex.
Without the principal’s permission, they were forbidden to go out.
They left school without authorization, violated the principal’s orders, sneaked out without permission, and even went to fight with those shady unaffiliated Espers.
Such behavior was truly incomprehensible and unreasonable.
They hadn’t considered at all that if they lost, if a mage was defeated by an Esper on camera, it would affect the honor of the entire mage community.
Of course, the Moffett sisters showed no remorse at all.
They even secretly investigated the location of the Muscle God Cult’s streaming.
They were a streaming guild.
Their headquarters was in a certain office building on the street we visited last time, easily found.
At the same time, Laige Yulian was also studying livestreaming, preparing to broadcast the next operation live to give them a taste of their own medicine.
But just as they were preparing for the operation, Laige Lingxiang stormed in angrily, hands on her hips, and demanded, “Why didn’t you call me when you went out to fight!”
