A Scientific Urban Detective

Feeling the heavy blow to his calf, and the renewed fracture, Lin Wuming instinctively yelled and swung his arm to slam the enemy to the ground.

Kozue Komichi didn't know about Lin Wuming's leg injury, but she could at least tell that his weakness was in his legs – after all, "heroes" were always in wheelchairs, and even if they could move normally, it was probably due to their Nen abilities.

Sure enough, after realizing her attacks were effective, Kozue Komichi continued to attack Lin Wuming's legs relentlessly.

This tactic was indeed effective, forcing Lin Wuming to let go and use his Nen to create distance between himself and the enemy.

"Hahaha!" Kozue Komichi wiped the blood from her face, laughing heartily.

With her fingers, she drew a new makeup design with the blood on her face, like a primitive totem, possessing a rough beauty.

"Tch!" Spitting out the clotted blood in her mouth to the side, Kozue Komichi staggered towards him.

"What's wrong, Hero-sama~ Didn't you say you'd never let go?" Kozue Komichi raised her left hand, the fair skin of her wrist showing a bruise from being gripped tightly.

The girl stuck out her tongue and licked the bruise on her wrist: "As expected, men's promises are never trustworthy."

"Madwoman…" Lin Wuming shook his head silently.

The most frightening opponent in a fight was this kind of desperate madman. The opponent was clearly losing her mind and ready to fight to the death. Faced with such an enemy, Lin Wuming was already at a disadvantage in terms of morale and resolve.

But morale doesn't directly determine the outcome of a battle.

Lin Wuming used his Nen to protect his re-injured left leg and limped forward.

Just a crazy woman who doesn't care about her life when fighting, it's not like he's never encountered one before. He just doesn't want to fight to the death with a madman, which doesn't mean he has no way to deal with her.

Now that she's even using "mutual destruction" tactics, it's clear that Kozue Komichi's skills are probably all exposed.

Fighting her again, Lin Wuming felt he could be more stable…

"Oh dear, I've completely become an unnoticed supporting character." Kurozuma Mawatari crouched behind the arena's wall, observing the situation on the field.

That attack that sounded like a bomb exploding earlier left him with lingering fear. He didn't dare to stay on the field and look for opportunities to participate in the battle. Instead, he wisely withdrew from the arena.

The samurai swordsman did the same.

Battles between high-level ability users were on a completely different level; ordinary people, unarmed, had no room to intervene!

"Who exactly is that woman? She's so strong!" Hattori Hanzō said, "I was wondering why Lin Wuming was nowhere to be seen. It turns out he encountered an enemy of this caliber…"

"Probably… the mastermind behind this arena." Kurozuma Mawatari speculated, "It seems I was too naive before, thinking I could rescue my comrades on my own…"

"Don't worry about it, I feel the same way." Hattori Hanzō said, "Also, even if we're not a match, we can't just sit on the sidelines. We need to find a way to buy time – I've sent a signal, and reinforcements from above will be here soon."

Kurozuma Mawatari clenched his fist: "You're right, but reinforcements… it seems like Komaba-老大 alone won't be enough, right?"

"Well, don't worry," Hattori Hanzō smiled, "There are also the security guards – they should be able to find us after all this time."

Without the escape expert Hattori Hanzō's help, Komaba Ritoku and Hamazura Shiage would definitely be exposed quickly and discovered by the security guards.

As long as they charged into this underground arena before being arrested, they would be involving the security guards as well, turning them into another strong force of support – this was Hattori Hanzō's original plan.

Of course, due to Lin Wuming's intervention, there would definitely be Judgement support forces on the surface as well.

Even if Lin Wuming didn't have time to send a signal, as long as they noticed the security guards' movements, the Judgement members wouldn't stand idly by…

The thought of Academy City's two major organizations supporting him at the same time made Hattori Hanzō feel confident.

Kurozuma Mawatari thought of the same thing. So what they needed to do now was to cooperate with Lin Wuming and hold back that female esper, preventing the mastermind from escaping!

Just as they were thinking about how to help Lin Wuming, another muffled tremor came.

Everyone looked up at the sky in unison.

The ceiling above, which was also the dome of this underground arena, was shaking.

As if… the "sky" was about to crack!

"This is bad, is it an earthquake?" Kurozuma Mawatari's expression was ugly.

This underground arena was converted from a natural underground cave. The highest point of the dome was more than fifty meters from the ground, and the area was about the size of a standard soccer field, but there were no additional supports in the middle, relying entirely on the wonders of nature.

But thinking about it carefully, was this space, buried a hundred meters underground, really as solid as it seemed?

Not just Kurozuma Mawatari, many spectators also realized the same thing, and the crowd panicked.

Hattori Hanzō lay on the ground, listening intently for a moment: "No, it's not an earthquake!"

He looked up at the dome in surprise: "Someone is attacking the ceiling… people from the outside are attacking!"

"Reinforcements from above? So fast?" Hattori Hanzō was uncertain.

But he guessed right. In fact, before he sent the signal, the people on the surface had already taken action!

Of course, the one who took the liberty of acting first… was Accelerator.

After discovering that this legendary "underground arena" was not what he had expected, Accelerator lost interest at once.

However, he didn't want to have made the trip for nothing, so he became somewhat interested in Hamazura Shiage's plan.

As a temporary guide who was unfortunately captured by Accelerator, Hamazura Shiage also had his own little thoughts – he wanted to use Accelerator's power to help break through the underground arena.

The Level 5 "Vector Transformation" was more reliable than him stealing heavy vehicles!

Since he needed someone's help, Hamazura Shiage showed a spirit of twelve thousand points of service, diligently acting as Accelerator's guide and introducing the situation.

The endless explanations continued until five minutes ago – Hamazura Shiage had run out of words and was speechless for a moment.

Accelerator's patience was then exhausted.

He was too lazy to care about things like "methods," "codes," and "signals."

"Making such a simple thing so complicated…" Accelerator snorted coldly and flew directly towards the indoor theater.

Then, without a second thought, he unleashed a massive blow towards the ground!
