Click, click.
Tasia's movements were like some kind of herbivorous animal chewing grass slowly. A faint expression of satisfaction suddenly appeared on her expressionless, or indifferent face. She squinted her eyes, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face. It flushed a little, chewed slowly, and made a humming sound that must have a feeling of happiness.
She, Tasia, was enjoying the smell of freshly baked bread.
This expression can really whet your appetite.
The owner of the bakery wears a wizard's hat and a costume similar to Gandalf the Grey, with fluffy cat ears and a fox-dog-like tail. Her delicate face was full of carelessness, and she was a cat with a lazy feeling. She waved her hand:
"Xiaoxi, how many points would you give me?"
With an indifferent face, Tasia gently put down the bread with both hands, and reluctantly released her mouth from the bread. She chewed it twice slowly, making a gesture that also felt more like 'slurping' than 'swallowing'. Suck' the action of feeling. Anyone who sees it will say, "It tastes so delicious."
Then, she said in a nonchalant tone:
"13 points."
The cat tribe dressed as a wizard made a face:
"No, is it such a low score?"
"The baking temperature is too high. The time is too long. The seasonings added are too little. The bacon and too much fat contaminate the aroma of the bread itself. The cheese is too thick and floats on the surface without penetrating. The saving grace is that it is freshly baked and used The ingredients are fresh. Any improvements needed? Everything.”
Unexpectedly strict.
Unexpectedly serious.
But this is indeed the attitude a gourmet should have, and the comments are also merciless. Melina glanced at the stricken cat tribe, and the Abyss Horse Girl next to her greeted happily:
"As always, you have high demands on food, Xiaoxi. Maomao is having a hard time with it now. Ha, I told you, don't even think about becoming a baker. Xiaoxi will not promote your shop without thinking just because we are acquaintances. oh?"
I remembered.
Melina cursed herself in her mind, how could she forget?
"Xiaoxi Tan Dian" is a very tasteful food newspaper. Because it only promotes what you eat and never accepts business orders, it has become somewhat famous among the niche. The author and sole contributor of the magazine is Xiaoxi, also known as Tasia.
"Food is very important. It makes the mind and mood better. A good mood promotes the growth of magic factors and a high-quality life."
Tasia said this in a way that it was hard to tell whether she was joking or serious.
Then, she looked at Melina.
Melina was convinced that she saw a bright light in the other party's silver eyes, and at the same time, her body naturally tensed up. As for the other party, Tasia's body gradually became tense.
The naturally flowing air seemed to be materialized, like tightly tuned strings, stretched tightly.
It seems that as soon as the sound is heard, the slightest vibration will cause the world to collapse.
Ma Niang was very clear about the state of the body. Abyss Ma Niang understood the truth of the matter in an instant and stretched out her hand to block the sight of the two. The air suddenly started to flow again, and the air that was so tight that it was unbearable finally started to flow.
"Xiaoxi, this Miss Melina wants to participate in the competition." Abyss Ma Niang said, "It's just that she is not Ma Niang, so she needs a special application for permission, and you need to approve it."
The emotions that were interrupted seemed like they could never come back.
Tasia returned to her calm and indifferent look:
"Special applications are not required. There is no regulation that only allows horse girls to participate in horse girls' competitions. All you need to do is complete the stipulated items, including running shoes to protect the ankles, horseshoes or similar equipment to protect the soles of the feet, a physical examination, and magic that exceeds the specifications. The factor reserves need to increase the arcane lock."
There is also a terrible gap in the amount of magic factors between horse girls, so the horse girl competition will stipulate the magic factor level. If a horse girl's magic factor is infinitely ahead of others, she must add a secret magic lock to participate in the competition.
Because Ma Niang’s competition pays more attention to three categories: running method, technique and body, that is, strategy, technology and training.
For example, if Melina wants to participate in the competition, the secret magic lock she needs to take is a bit heavy.
Tasia reminded her with kindness towards banshees of the same level:
"Wearing a heavy burden, a burden that far exceeds the upper limit of physical strength can torture people's minds and drive madness to the soul. Walking with two feet tied is an injustice in itself. I am in that state. I can't run fast, jump high, and I'm not in the mood. Learn the craft of running.”
Melina caught the key words:
"Not in the mood to study?"
Tasia nodded slowly and said something surprising:
"I don't have much patience. There are too many skills to study and learn. Ma Niang's skills have a narrow application and are only effective on the playing field. I don't have much patience and don't like this kind of slow research, practice, and training."
This is advice from a banshee of the same level.
but.
It's not the kind of 'impossible suggestion', but a suggestion that is close to blind belief and makes others unhappy.
Abyss Ma Niang was very unhappy.
She put her hands on the table and frowned:
"Xiaoxi, what you mean seems to be that as long as this Miss Melina can withstand the training and complete the training in just a few days, she will have the possibility of qualifying in our competition... no, even winning the ranking?"
"..." Tasia didn't answer the question. She slowly raised the bread, opened her mouth and bit into it.
Her indifferent expression was once again covered by a happy smile, her face flushed, and she got pleasure from the bread she ate. It’s hard to imagine that this was bread that she divided into 13 equal parts without mercy.
The cat tribe laughed and said:
"Xiao Xi is trying to save face for you. Although cats don't understand Ma Niang, I can at least see that the physical fitness of the young lady named Melina next to you is several times yours. Even if such a person is just a banshee, After your running method, I think it won’t be a problem to easily surpass you.”
"Aha?"
Only then did Abyss Horse Girl seriously look at Melina.
But her gaze didn't matter.
Melina was looking at Tasia, her eyes unblinking.
What is she looking at? Ma Niang couldn't help but be a little curious.
Melina may have to admit something.
She had a strange, special, different emotion for Tasia.
This emotion is extremely deep and extremely twisted.
She felt a desire.
She wanted to rip out Tasia's throat and drink her blood.
A primitive, extremely violent desire that comes from the darkness. Melina felt her dark side, she felt another self in her body!
Another Melina.
No, that one is not called Melina, that one is a fledgling explorer who was published in the newspaper, a dazzling star who is called a "playwright" because she controls ten rifles.
Melina is a good girl who is docile and honest, but also a little evil-minded and likes to put on a face of disgust. The playwright is the embodiment of violence and elegance, eager to tear apart all living things in front of him. Melina is lazy, just like every beautiful girl who is full of nobility and elegance. The playwright is cruel, as evil and inherently perverted as the famous serial killers in history.
Now, here comes the playwright.
She looked at Tasia, inch by inch. She wanted to let go of Tasia and have a downright fight. A fight that destroys oneself or the other party.
This is not murderous intention, nor is it murderous intention at all.
Just 'want'.
Just a 'I want to drink a Coke' versus 'I want to read a book in the afternoon' kind of want.
In this whirlpool of emotions, others can't tell the difference.
But Tasia felt it.
She looked at Melina slowly.
There was a very calm emotion in her eyes. She looked into Melina's eyes and seemed to be thinking, and the magic factor of thinking was unreservedly exposed.
The playwright laughed.
Because the thoughts and thoughts revealed by the emotions in Tasia's eyes are extremely simple:
"Destroy, ravage, kill."
Then, the playwright changed back to Melina, who felt the same regret as Tasia, that what they were thinking had no chance of happening. People spend their entire lives fighting against a darker version of themselves.
During the day, he is a good student who studies hard, and at night, he is a lonely person who stays up all night looking for comfort in games.
The manuscript is due tomorrow, but today I was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling aimlessly and thinking, 'If I can't hand it in tomorrow, I'll be screwed.' I was in a daze for almost the whole day.
They are fighting against their sadistic nature.
Only by suppressing this nature can they call themselves human beings.
…
…
The two of them must have taken a liking to each other, right?
Abyss Ma Niang had an uneasy and unpleasant emotion in her heart, as if something had been taken away.
Next to her, the girl from the cat tribe covered her mouth and laughed loudly. The cat tribe was very sensitive and could see the desire to kill that naturally appeared in these two people.
It would be very scary to be honest, because if these two banshees were to fight.
Although the outcome is still uncertain, everyone around him will basically die.
…
…
Tasia lowered her head and signed the special application permission. Although they said they didn't need this thing, she and Melina both understood that these superficial things were not something they could just do if they wanted to, and they still needed to give others an excuse.
This application is an excuse.
Both of them pretended that they were not interested in killing each other, talking peacefully and exchanging items.
Melina felt like she needed to calm down.
"Are you leaving?"
Tasia actually asked aloud.
Melina turned her head and nodded, "Yes, I still need to tell my good friends the news. I don't understand Ma Niang at all, and I still need to discuss with them how to run away."
Fluorescence flickers in the air.
A ball of light fell in Melina's palm.
A card appeared in her palm. At the same time, she asked knowingly:
"this is…"
"It's convenient for you to leave."
Tasia answered the question knowingly.
This is not a card to leave.
It's an invitation card.
