Off Work, Then Transform into a Magical Girl-Chapter 71 – Go together
The footsteps in the corridor on the first floor stopped.
The two black-robed figures walking in it looked up and alertly glanced at the stairs on the second floor.
There, Bai Jingxuan lay motionless on the ground, like a turtle hiding in its shell, unwilling to get up.
Although she knew that it was useless, whether she played dead or pretended not to know, she couldn't change the fact that she had been exposed. But she still found it difficult to accept the failure to escape in this way.
At such a time, her old illness suddenly recurred, which was really untimely.
She suffered from a congenital disease that even hospitals couldn't diagnose. The cause was unknown, and there were no cases like hers in the family's genetic lineage, but it happened to her alone.
The clinical manifestation of this disease was like what was happening now: sudden loss of control of the limbs and weakness, as if a part of her body was paralyzed. Unlike traditional epilepsy, Bai Jingxuan's mind was clear during this process, and she could perceive the passage of time and changes in the external environment.
The attacks were irregular, and there were no known medications to alleviate them. The only fortunate thing was that these attacks usually only affected skeletal muscles and lasted for only a few minutes. Bai Jingxuan remembered hearing a nurse say that if a similar condition affected the heart muscles, she might not have survived until now.
And now, at such a critical moment, no matter which part of her body was affected, it made no difference to Bai Jingxuan.
The two black-robed figures who heard the sound had already walked up the stairs and saw her lying on the steps.
She even saw one of the black-robed figures take out something like a communication device and start reporting their findings to someone.
She wanted to stand up and continue to escape, but the effects of her illness had not yet ended. It would take at least a few more minutes for her legs to regain control.
She tried to support herself with her hands and crawl, but there was no way she could be faster than two healthy humans.
She was probably beyond saving. It was not a good thing for these people to find her, but unfortunately, she had not become a magical girl yet.
Bai Jingxuan thought to herself.
She closed her eyes, no longer struggling, and accepted her fate.
Then, a pair of hands passed through her armpits and lifted her up high.
Immediately after, she felt her body being tilted, as if someone was carrying her on their shoulders.
"It's not time to give up yet!"

A trembling voice came from her ear.
She opened her eyes and saw the corridor rapidly retreating, as well as the two black-robed figures chasing in the distance.
Wasn't she caught by them?
Bai Jingxuan was momentarily stunned, unable to understand her current situation. She could only try to turn her head and look at the person carrying her. Even though she could only see the back of their head, she could still recognize their figure.
"Uncle Tian?"
He was a male nurse named Tian Sheng. Although he was not usually responsible for taking care of her, they had some interactions and were somewhat familiar with each other.
However, where did he appear from, and why was he running away with her?
She didn't ask this question, so Tian Sheng wouldn't know what she was thinking. But it was also a coincidence that Tian Sheng was currently thinking about this:
Why was he running away with this child? Why did he come out of that storeroom?
Wasn't it better to hide there and wait for rescue? Why did he have to come out and seek death?
He knew Bai Jingxuan and knew about her situation. He did have some sympathy for her. However, this level of sympathy was not enough for him to risk his life.
But when he was hiding in the storeroom and saw the child lying on the stairs, motionless as if she wanted to die, his feet moved before his mind.
He pushed open the door that was only slightly ajar and rushed forward with large strides.
He carried the girl on his shoulders before the terrorists could catch her, and then started running along the corridor on the second floor.
Facing the sudden appearance of Tian Sheng, the black-robed figures were momentarily stunned, but then they quickly started moving and followed without hesitation. The two groups began a chase in the corridor.
Tian Sheng was not an athlete, and his running speed was not outstanding compared to an average adult male. He was in a weak and passive position in the chase.
On the other hand, the black-robed figures behind him were different. They were obviously well-trained and ran faster than Tian Sheng. So even though they started later, the distance between the two groups was constantly shrinking.

What was even more dangerous was that when Tian Sheng slightly turned his head to look behind him, he saw a faint purple-black light flashing in the hands of one of the black-robed figures.
- That was the precursor to using a spell formula.
It seemed that they couldn't drag this on any longer, he thought.
"Hold on tight. If you fall again, I won't have time to turn back and save you!"Ignoring the girl's puzzled cries, he loudly gave an order. Then he let go of Bai Jingxuan's shirt, instead tucking her legs under his arm, and pulled out two dice-like square objects from his chest pocket.
These were his prepared Spell Formula mediums.
For an ordinary magic user, the basic elements needed to research, master, and use a Spell Formula are Magic Power, soul, and medium.
Magic Power is the energy source of the Spell Formula. It stimulates and supplies Magic Power to activate the Spell Formula, allowing it to take effect.
The soul is the means of controlling the Spell Formula. It ensures the stability and direction of the Spell Formula, allowing the final effect of the Spell Formula to meet one's needs.
The medium is the central hub of the Spell Formula. Magic users rely on previously collected materials, spending a lot of Magic Power, physical strength, and time to engrave the Spell Formula, integrating the final results into a small device.
To use a modern firearm as an analogy, Magic Power is the bullet, the soul is the hand, and the medium is the firearm. Only by pulling the trigger of the firearm with the hand can the bullet be fired and cause damage.
However, for magic users, their mediums are all painstakingly engraved with their own Magic Power, so they have a high consistency with the user's Magic Power fluctuations and cannot be used by others.
The medium also has its durability. As the number of uses increases, the efficiency of releasing the Spell Formula will decrease, and it will eventually be scrapped and unusable.
When that day comes, the magic user can only make the medium corresponding to the Spell Formula again.
This has led to the fact that in modern society, the total number of magic users is not large. After all, to engage in Spell Formula research, one must have relatively superior Magic Power talent, while most ordinary people have too weak Magic Power; secondly, they must have a high level of education to learn the complex theory of magic Spell Formulas; thirdly, they must have access to the knowledge of magic Spell Formulas; on this basis, they must have enough financial resources to purchase magic materials for making mediums, which is really too difficult.
In the end, many magic users who are struggling to make ends meet can only embark on the path of crime.
Tian Sheng considers himself a law-abiding good citizen. The money he uses to buy materials is earned from his hard work, so his progress is relatively slow, and he has just barely stepped into the threshold of the Observer.
There are three stages of a magic user's strength: Observer, Contact, and Control. He is the weakest rookie.
Wanting to confront the terrorists behind him head-on is not an option, all he can do is to buy more time.
At this moment, he took out his Spell Formula medium, and what he was going to use was a Spell Formula that even a rookie could master - Magic Power Barrier.
