Chapter 142 Witch Night
July 07, Bo Ke’s residence.

After being adjusted by the system alarm clock, Ke Mingye's biological clock is now as accurate as a machine, and always wakes him up on time at six in the morning before dawn.

[Good morning, Mr. Player, today is July 2028, 07. There are 07 days left until the deadline for the ultimate mission "Exterminate Superhumans". ]

As usual, as soon as I opened my eyes, the hypertension promoter popped up.

I don’t know whether the superhumans will be extinct in a year, but there will definitely be many players suffering from high blood pressure in a year.

However, Ke Mingye did not think so. If it were in the past, he might have felt anxious, but after such a period of time, he had already gotten used to it.

The psychological qualities honed in the Bo Ke family are evident.

He scratched his messy hair and rubbed the notification panel away as if he was rubbing the eye boogers out of his eye sockets.

Then, after washing up in the toilet, I left the house, ran along the Lao Jingmai Street District, did a hundred push-ups, and finished the damn daily task.

[Received the reward for daily task 2 "One Hundred Push-ups", and obtained 1 attribute points that can be freely allocated. ]

[Your "Spiritual Power" attribute changes: 12→13 points (↑1 point). ]

[Received the reward for daily task 1 "Run meters" and received a chance to win a lucky draw.]

[The reward for area 1500 has been drawn - " experience points". ]

[Your level has been raised to Lv.14 (500 points/8000 points), and you have obtained an attribute point that can be freely allocated. ]

[Your "Spiritual Power" attribute changes: 13→14 points (↑1 point). ]

If she wants to gain a foothold among magical girls and have a somewhat respectable reputation, she must quickly raise her mental strength to the level of a superhuman, otherwise her magic power at this stage is still too weak.

Ke Mingye thought so. After all, "Little Red Riding Hood" was a quasi-A-level item card that brought about the transformation ability, so the talent set by the system for this magical girl character was quite high. His mental strength was still so low, and the magic power that Little Red Riding Hood could exert was already able to produce a remarkable effect.

From this perspective, the cost-effectiveness of improving the "spiritual power" attribute is definitely not low. Just two or three points of spiritual attribute can greatly increase Little Red Riding Hood's magic power.

This speed of progress is far beyond those of magical girls with ordinary talents, it can be considered cheating.

"No wonder Xiziyue fell in love with me. Could it be that... I am the genius magical girl that only appears once in five thousand years?"

Ke Mingye walked to the front of the Old Jingmai Coffee House while thinking. He looked up and saw that the coffee house was already open early in the morning, and the sign hanging on the wooden door was already facing people with the "Open" side.

He walked forward and pushed open the wooden door of the cafe, and the wind chimes swayed, making a light sound.

He heard from his eldest brother that the owner of this cafe had returned in the past two days, so the cafe would be open much earlier than usual;

Not only does the owner make great coffee, he also prepares some sandwiches every day that taste really good, so I came here to try them.

Ke Mingye found a corner in the store bathed in orange-yellow lights and sat down. Then, a calm voice came from the room behind the counter.

"what do you want to drink?"

Ke Mingye glanced at the menu on the wooden table, pondered for two seconds, and replied: "Uh, I don't drink coffee, a glass of pure milk, and a sandwich?"

"Row."

Ke Mingye put down the menu and heard the owner's voice. He thought to himself that this owner was really young.

Just as I was thinking this, a tall and thin figure suddenly walked out from the room behind the counter. He leaned against the counter of the cafe, resting his arms on the counter, and lowered his head to play with his mobile phone.

Judging from the sound effects, he should be playing Minesweeper.

Ke Mingye thought that this person should be a store clerk, so he didn't even raise his head, but just quietly checked the daily news on his mobile phone.

Recently, there have been more and more cases of witches committing crimes around the world.

Many magical girls were killed, and the situation was most serious in London, where seven magical girls were missing.

The magical girl Lilai, one of the three giants of the Alliance, has been worrying about this matter. Just last night, on behalf of the London branch of the Alliance, she publicly stated at a press conference that she would find the witches hiding in the city as soon as possible and bring them to justice.

During the press conference, the reporter also asked a question that Ke Mingye was very concerned about, which is: Does "Witch Night" really exist?
Magical Girl Lilai remained silent about this question, frowning slightly and not answering.

Ke Mingye searched the term "Witch Night" on the Internet, and only heard that this seemed to be the strongest trump card of the witches. If they collected enough fragments of the Qiamat Comet, then Witch Night would return to the world.

But no one knows what "Witch Night" is, and every netizen has a different comment on this statement.

Some say it is the ultimate weapon of witches; some say Witch Night is the most powerful witch in the world, sealed in the pyramids of Egypt by the first generation of witch girls;

Some people say that the Witch Night is a natural disaster, which originated from the story of the Tower of Babel in the Bible. People built a giant tower to the sky and angered the gods, so the gods sent down the "Witch Night" to punish mankind.

Anyway, as Ke Mingye browsed through the articles, he found it almost impossible to find a similar opinion, so the credibility of this information was worryingly low.

If he wanted to know what Witch Night was, he would probably have to pry it out from the three giants of the Magical Girls League, so he had to get close to Xiziyue.

Ke Mingye was surfing the Internet intensively when the "shop assistant" who was leaning on the counter playing Minesweeper suddenly came over and sat opposite him.

The clerk put his phone into his jacket and said in a relaxed tone, "You came so early. It seems that you are like me. You heard that the store manager is back and want to try his cooking skills?"

Who are you?
Ke Mingye raised his head and looked at the other person in confusion.

What I saw was a handsome young man wearing a gray hooded jacket, a white T-shirt with the font and cartoon logo of "Polar Bear Bookstore" printed on it, and black cloth trousers.

The young man raised his brown eyes and looked at him with interest, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The next moment, Ke Mingye saw the information panel popping up above the other person's head.

【Name: Anson Lu】

[Age: 20 years old]

[Strength: Unknown]

[Character code: Former chess player (???)]

Ke Mingye stared at the words reflected on the panel for two full seconds, his mind almost shutting down.

No way, the same question mark-level combat power as my mom?
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Zeus, an S-level divine being, was only ranked third in the Super Heroes Round Table. So, could this guy be the mysterious figure ranked No. 1 in the Super Heroes Round Table?

Thinking of this, Ke Mingye put away his phone, pretended to be calm and met the other person's gaze, and asked: "Brother, what's the matter?"

"It's okay. He just rarely sees someone coming so early, so he just wants to chat with you."

As he spoke, the owner of the cafe slowly walked out, placed a cup of steaming hot coffee and a plate with sandwiches on the table, and said calmly, "Enjoy your meal."

The moment Ke Mingye's eyes swept across the store manager, he was stunned for another half a second.

【Name: Xia Mingwei】

[Age: 19 years old]

[Strength rating: unknown]

[Character code: Son of the Rainbow God (???)]

Xia Mingwei's face was clearly defined, his eyes were deep and dark, and his nose was high. He was wearing a black and white checkered uniform similar to a bartender's, and a light brown kitchen apron.

After serving breakfast to the guests, Xia Mingwei leaned against the counter, holding his shoulders with one hand and holding the hot coffee prepared for him with the other hand, and took a sip. "Excuse me, boss, I suddenly have something to do, can you help me pack it?"

Ke Mingye hesitated for half a second, then looked up and asked the boss.

Hearing this, Xia Mingwei put down the coffee cup on the counter, sighed, turned his head and said to Anson Lu: "Look, you scared people."

"Isn't it?"

As he said that, Anson Lu shrugged helplessly, "Xia Mingwei, why do I feel like this is your problem?"

"Take care of yourself." Xia Mingwei said.

Seeing that the two ignored him, Ke Mingye urged them further, "I'm very pressed for time, boss."

"Okay, then I'll help you pack." Xia Mingwei said.

"Brother, my name is Anson Lu. Maybe we will meet again in the future. Of course, it will take fate to meet again. Everything depends on fate."

Anson Lu took out his cell phone from his pocket, lowered his eyes, and talked to himself while playing Minesweeper.

"My name is Ke Mingye. Brother, are you a Taoist priest?"

“No, he’s a chess player.”

Ke Mingye scratched his nose and complained, "But I've only seen Taoist priests talk like this."

Hearing this, Anson Lu chuckled twice and said teasingly: "I do know a Taoist priest who is currently living a secluded life in Huashan."

As they were talking, Xia Mingwei came over with a well-packaged food bag and placed it on the table.

"It's packed."

After a while, Ke Mingye walked out of the cafe carrying the packaging bag, still feeling frightened. Bathed in the morning light, his uneasy mood eased somewhat.

Oh my god, what the hell are these two guys doing? Just drinking a cup of coffee in the Novice Village, I can meet two final bosses, right?

As he thought about it, he quickly left Street 7, then turned on the communication function and clicked into the discussion group for players in the same city.

【Players in the same city discussion group】

[Failed Man: Brothers, don't go near the cafe in the old Jingmai district. Sometimes two hidden bosses will spawn here.]

【Anti-Dog sent a private message.】

[Anti-dog: If you are still not fully awake, then sleep a little longer. Don’t go crazy in the discussion group. Aren’t your family members the final bosses?]

[Ke Mingye: I'll explain it to you later. I'm dizzy.]

After sending the message, Ke Mingye went all the way home and searched for information about "Witch Night" while enjoying breakfast in the kitchen.

Then I sat on the sofa and played "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" on Switch.

Time quietly passed until ten o'clock in the morning, on Yandai Commercial Street, on the long-abandoned rooftop of Huanjing Primary School.

A magical girl in a gothic grey dress was leaning against the wall with one hand on her waist, playing with her mobile phone, her slender fingers wrapped in black gloves clicking frantically on the screen.

[Not Ashes: Have you arrived yet? You stood me up again. Be careful or I will tell the chef and have her deduct your salary! ]

[Little Red Riding Hood: Senior, you are so impatient. Can you give the poor orphan girl who picks up garbage a little more tolerance and love? ]

[Not Ashes: I'll give you five more minutes. ]

【Little Red Riding Hood: I’m here. 】

Ashes raised his head and saw that from a corner of the sky, the wind and snow were carrying a blonde girl wearing a Christmas dress and a tall Christmas hat, and were slowly bringing her over.

The magical girl Little Red Riding Hood escaped from the wind and snow, and touched the ground on the rooftop with her toes.

"I'm here right now," she said.

"You're smart, let's go."

The magical girl Ashes said coldly, averted her eyes from her, turned around, and walked into the teaching building through the rooftop gate.

Little Red Riding Hood followed, and soon the two of them arrived at the classroom on the fifth floor.

Looking up, I saw two girls in magic dresses sitting in front of the "conference table".

[Character Code: Magical Girl Rainbow]

[Age: 14 years old]

[Strength: C+ level]

The magical girl sitting on the left is wearing a pink pleated skirt and a bright red headband is wrapped around her long pink hair.

She sat petite and dignified, with her hands neatly placed on her knees, looking a little reserved.

[Character Code: Magical Girl Maple]

[Age: 15 years old]

[Strength: C++ level]

The other magical girl had short blond hair and wore a short skirt in the elegant color of maple leaves. Her face had a neutral beauty and she looked like a pretty boy.

Magical Girl Ashes hugged her shoulders and introduced Little Red Riding Hood beside her: "These are your two teammates. You will be following them for a long time."

Little Red Riding Hood nodded without replying and tried her best to look "shy".

"Hello, I'm Magical Girl Nijigen, the rainbow."

Hong raised her head and gave a friendly smile, her voice as sweet and delicate as her smile.

Feng said calmly: "I am Feng, the Feng of maple leaf."

Seeing that Little Red Riding Hood opened her mouth but could not speak, Ashes sighed and spoke for her: "Let me introduce you, this is Little Red Riding Hood..."

At this point, the magical girl Ash turned her fair face away and continued, "She is... my sister."

"Eh?"

Hong and Feng both froze in place upon hearing this.

"what?"

Little Red Riding Hood was also stunned for a few seconds and thought to herself, sister, how come I became your sister? Is this unethical?
