At first glance, Su Mu’s ability seemed to lack any offensive power, but its versatility and functionality were extraordinarily exaggerated.
In the future, whenever a tricky new monster appeared, Su Mu could scan it and report the information to other magical girls, putting the opponent at an immediate disadvantage in terms of intelligence.
The reason monsters had been difficult to deal with in the past was mainly because they could simply revert to their human form, making their appearance and aura almost indistinguishable from ordinary people.
Once they blended into the crowd, they were impossible to find.
But now, Su Mu could extract the true form of the monsters, instantly solving the biggest problem.
However, it was still unclear whether Su Mu could scan monsters with extremely strong concealment abilities like Mixian.
Moreover, when scanning Tang Nai and Ye Wanqing, numerous question marks appeared on the screen, indicating that the scanning ability still had many limitations.
“Speaking of which, what does ‘deep scan’ mean?”
Tang Nai raised an eyebrow.
“How should I know? It’s your ability; you should figure it out yourself.”
Upon hearing this, Su Mu realized that she had already started habitually throwing her questions at Tang Nai, as if the other party knew everything.
Drat, this cunning silver-haired witch was unexpectedly reliable.
The reason Su Mu asked was more to seek their opinions, as “deep scan” sounded like it could potentially touch upon some secret content.
But Tang Nai apparently had no objections, or rather, judging by her nonchalant demeanor, she didn’t think Su Mu could obtain any information from her.
At this moment, the handheld device had transformed into a radar powered by magical energy, marking Tang Nai and Ye Wanqing as two flickering red dots on the coordinate system.
Looking at the text in the confirmation bar below, Su Mu decisively pressed the trigger for the deep scan.
When it came to someone like Tang Nai, who needed to be asked before conducting experiments, it was really troublesome.
Unlike those unfamiliar monsters, she could just box them up upon encountering them and quickly become familiar with them unilaterally.
This time, the magical field for the scan was quite dense and could be clearly perceived by everyone in the room, with an extremely strong purpose.
The magical energy was no longer spread out carelessly as before but instead, it strongly converged towards Tang Nai, turning into countless fine needles that probed towards her skin, which seemed so delicate it could be pierced by a mere breath.
However, before Su Mu could get excited, those needles were swallowed by an invisible barrier just a few millimeters away from Tang Nai, as if they had sunk into the deep sea and made no more noise.
“Roughly estimated, Tang Nai’s protective magical energy strength has reached level B and above. The host Su Mu’s vital signs are normal. It has been automatically marked as a friendly upper-level target.”
Looking at the subtitles that appeared, Su Mu’s eyes suddenly widened.
Without realizing it, Tang Nai’s pixelated gray rabbit avatar had already appeared in the team column, and it was placed above Su Mu’s pink mouse avatar, marked as the team leader.
Are you kidding me?
How come you’ve defected?
I was about to fight to the death, why did you surrender first?
Although Su Mu could more or less understand the logic of the handheld device.
After scanning Tang Nai, who had a protective magical energy of level B and above, and still being able to safely watch the panel here, it must have scanned a friendly unit.
But why is she above me?
This is so annoying!
At this moment, a pop-up window that surprised Su Mu appeared.
“The main body of the genius girl Irina has come online.”
At the same time, Irina’s voice came from the bottom of her heart.
“Little Su Mu, are you interested in letting me help you scan? I guarantee to at least break through the surface protection.”
Su Mu thought about the consequences and the possible noise that might be made, and couldn’t help but shiver.
“No way, what if Tang Nai senses your existence and dissects me for research?”
“You can rest assured on this point. Even if Tang Nai notices, I have ways to keep you safe.”
Hearing this, Su Mu couldn’t help but feel excited.
Could it be that Irina also has a level B and above standard?
“What kind of method is it, can I learn it?”
“Of course you can, and with your cooperation, it can be done more perfectly.”
“Stop beating around the bush and tell me.”
In the dream, Irina propped up her leg, revealed a mysterious smile, and then slowly lifted her skirt, gradually outlining the tempting absolute territory under the shadow.
“Hmph, that is – selling charm!”
“Get out!”
Irina’s credibility in Su Mu’s heart instantly dropped several notches.
No longer listening to Irina’s jokes, Su Mu decided to choose Ye Wanqing as the target and try again.
If everything scanned was just a bunch of question marks, wouldn’t this ability become a useless appendage again?
The magical energy inside her body was violently consumed once again, making Su Mu’s cheeks slightly pale.
But this time, those magical probes smoothly passed through Ye Wanqing’s body surface.
Ye Wanqing’s cheeks suddenly turned a little red, and then she instinctively crossed her arms over her chest, pulling her clothes tighter.
“What are you doing, Su Mu? Why do I feel ticklish all over?”
So she still feels shy, huh?
That’s quite an eye-opener.
[Successful deep scan, the following information has been intercepted]
[Ye Wanqing: Female student of Normal University, height 173cm, weight 58kg, bust 92.5, waist 69, hips 97, good mood.]
[Magical Girl Miti: Magical energy strength level C, with the ability to manipulate fire, good public image.]
[????: Information beyond authority, access denied.]
[Do you want to execute the modification?]
This handheld device definitely has a problem.
The focus of the scan has seriously deviated in a bad way.
It must have been tampered with by Tang Nai in the beginning!
It’s supposed to be used to obtain combat information, but it gives me these instead.
What does this mean?
Do I look like that kind of person?
Su Mu really couldn’t understand the real meaning of those numbers.
But what does this “execute modification” mean?
Could this be my second ability?
After hesitating, Su Mu decided to give it a try.
[Detected a good relationship between the main body Su Mu and the individual Ye Wanqing, do you want to block the instructions that may be judged as aggressive and include them in the team?]
Su Mu looked up and met Ye Wanqing’s gaze.
After staring at the latter’s slightly dazed red eyes for a while, her slender fingertips gently poked at “yes”.
Miti’s pixel avatar immediately appeared in the team column, this time on the right side of the mouse avatar.
It looked like a scene from a low-budget turn-based RPG game, with several little people lined up…
But there was no specific next step displayed on the handheld device, which left Su Mu somewhat bewildered.
Is it to issue instructions with magical energy?
She tentatively injected a bit of magical energy, imagining a pair of bunny ears popping out on Ye Wanqing’s head.
Without consuming much magical energy, the next moment, a pair of long bunny ears popped out from Ye Wanqing’s hair, drooping to the sides like tufts of hair.
She felt bewildered and touched her head.
Following the strands of hair, her delicate fingers soon touched those furry things, causing her body to tremble violently and her speech to take on a soft, gentle tone.
“What is this? It feels so strange to touch…”
Amazingly, her original ears were still there, and the problem that had troubled everyone for a long time was solved.
Su Mu quickly withdrew the command, and the bunny ears slipped away from her fingers again, leaving Ye Wanqing standing there in a daze, while the former just pretended as if nothing had happened and continued to play with the handheld device.
This thing is amazing!
“Don’t get too excited. If the other side is vigilant, they can resist the modification with magical energy. The main reason it succeeded is that Ye Wanqing has no guard against you. But this ability is very convenient – it can be used to fulfill almost any fantasy about appearance~”
Hearing Irina’s teasing words floating from the bottom of her heart, Su Mu’s cheeks immediately turned red.
Who would use it like that?
That kind of thing…
If I were to use it, it would be first on Tang Nai, turning her into a little female demon.
