Chapter 454 Athena, you wouldn't want your fans to be... If fans were divided into male and female, Mai Shiranui's fanbase would overwhelmingly outnumber Athena Asamiya's.
Athena Asamiya gives off an aura of a pure goddess, making people reluctant to defile her or even dare to harbor such thoughts. She is a truly untouchable high-mountain flower; no one should even think of touching her, especially that bun-headed man!
However, Mai Shiranui's equal treatment of everyone except Andy gives many people the misconception, "If I work hard enough, perhaps I'll also have a chance to win her affection?"
She was essentially the original 'teasing' streamer.
Watching his 'sister-in-law' perform in the ring, Terry couldn't help but frown.
It was strange; when he was still a man, Terry was actually one of those rare individuals who could completely view Mai Shiranui as his sister-in-law and sister, without a single trace of physical desire. This was due to his overwhelming brotherly affection for Andy.
But after his body underwent feminization for just a few days, when he saw Mai Shiranui performing in the same way as before, Terry instinctively felt annoyed.
There was a sense of spiritual 潔癖 that emerged from being a woman, coupled with a considerable degree of feeling wronged on Andy's behalf, and even a hint of... jealousy for Mai Shiranui's good figure?
As soon as this thought surfaced, Terry was startled, and cold sweat instantly drenched his back.
At this moment, he finally realized why Mai Shiranui had so many female anti-fans, and—
If this continued, he wouldn't be able to go back!!!
The influence of body and hormones on soul and thought was even more profound and terrifying than Terry had imagined. Some of his ways of thinking were inevitably sliding towards the feminine, which was clearly not a good sign.
But where was the culprit who turned him into a woman...? Lin Meiling's ears were very sensitive. From the deafening roar of the crowd, she could clearly hear some shouts mixed in, such as "Smash her clothes!", "Strip her!", "I want to see girls stick together!", which were purely expressing desire. She also gained a deeper understanding of "The Present World."
Humans = Chaos.
Against male opponents, Mai Shiranui had unparalleled special advantages, but when her opponent was a woman, her advantages would very likely turn into disadvantages, further provoking targeted attacks from female opponents.
King was one of the few female fighters with both strength and speed, while Mai Shiranui was a typical high-agility specialist, very skilled at dodging, maneuvering, and long-range suppression. The number of fans she had, hidden somewhere on her body, was also overwhelmingly large.
At the same time, having witnessed King's failure in a head-on confrontation, Mai Shiranui became even more determined not to let Lin Meiling easily close the distance.
Both sides confirmed their positions, and the host quickly left the ring and announced.
"Mai Shiranui! Versus! Lin Meiling!"
"Ready~~~~GOOOO!!!"
Just then, Cheng Tian's walkie-talkie, provided by the organizers, suddenly rang.
He glanced at the number and saw it was from Utan, who was on standby at the laboratory.
Unless it was a particularly urgent situation, Utan wouldn't call, so Cheng Tian immediately answered.
"Boss, some intruders suddenly appeared around the lab."
Utan said directly, cutting to the chase.
"What? Intruders? Is it NESTS or Shadaloo?"
Cheng Tian shouted into the phone, blocking his other ear.
"No, it seems to be some ordinary citizens with somewhat fanatical and abnormal emotions, and they make no secret of their intentions. They keep muttering about wanting to kill you, boss, and destroy everything you have."
"Hmm? Hmm..."
Cheng Tian's face showed a considerable degree of confusion.
Could it be the remnants of Shadaloo? But he felt that Krizalid and Maxima wouldn't cause such a situation for NESTS.
Shadaloo, on the other hand, was somewhat possible. Although not on the level of millions of 漕工 , Shadaloo must have been involved in a very complex chain of interests. Who knows how many people, both overt and covert, depended on Shadaloo's industry for their livelihoods.
Cheng Tian's act of eliminating Vega not only led to Shadaloo's split and even demise but would also cause a series of scoundrels to lose their source of income.
As he spoke, Cheng Tian's eyes couldn't help but dart towards the audience stands, and he then saw some spectators who immediately looked away the moment his gaze shifted.
"Oh-ho, I know. It must be Athena's extreme fans."
Cheng, with a flash of insight, made a direct judgment and immediately gave further instructions.
"Beat these brainless idiots first, then force them to reveal their fan identity and record it. Send it to me later, and I'll go find Athena for compensation~"
The trouble caused by the fans, naturally, the idol has to bear.
Hehehehe~
Cheng Tian was just looking for an opportunity to deal with Athena, and now it had presented itself.
Sie Kensou's ability system belonged to both physical combat and mental cultivation, and in terms of derived techniques for psychic warfare, it was far from as rich as Athena Asamiya's.
In Cheng Tian's view, Psychic Sword, Psychic Reflector, Super Psychic Throw, and Shining Crystal Wave were all quite suitable moves for him to use. There was potential for further learning whether he pursued a practical combat route or a teaching route.
It was just that he had just beaten her and achieved a three-win streak, so it was really hard to open his mouth. But with the help of her idiotic fans, the situation was different.
"This world's number one JK idol, you wouldn't want your fans to be..." "Then what do we do with them after beating them?"
"Pile them at the entrance. If they can walk, let them go. If not, beat them again to put some public pressure on the high school girl."
However, just as Cheng Tian hung up the phone, he heard a piercing scream from the ring, which could be described as an anguished "An~~~~dy!!!!"
Looking up, Cheng Tian saw Mai Shiranui arcing through the air.
"Eh? Is it over?"
"It's over, the big-chested one was completely defeated."
Watching Mai Shiranui fall, Eileen first showed an indescribable sense of satisfaction, then her expression involuntarily soured.
Because as Mai Shiranui fell, certain parts of her body displayed astonishing elasticity like slime, and undulations like waves.
"Just you wait, they'll sag in a few years..."
Comrade Eileen muttered to herself.
"Winner! Lin Meiling!!!"
Lin Meiling, with several burn marks still on her body, smoothed her bangs and said, "Thank you for the match."
At this moment, Andy, disregarding all warnings, rushed onto the stage, cradled Mai Shiranui, whose clothes could only be described as "shreds," and dashed away.
Was it another three-win streak?
Expectation began to appear in the eyes of many spectators.
However, the last member of the Women Fighters Team, and also the actual controller of the "Kagura Corporation," one of the main sponsors of this tournament, Chizuru Kagura, slowly stepped onto the stage.
At this moment, Lin Meiling suddenly heard her young mistress's voice from behind.
"Meiling, come down."
"Young Mistress?"
"This woman is a bit special. Let Sakuya go."
