A Scientific Urban Detective

Lin Wuming noticed that Accelerator was gathering the scattered wind around him, concentrating it in his hand, and then turning this violent airflow into a heavy hammer, smashing it down on his head! An ominous feeling washed over him.

The scale of the attack from the sky was so vast that Lin Wuming found himself with nowhere to hide.

In just an instant, he was pressed firmly to the ground, and even the concrete pavement beneath him cracked.

As if addicted to the beating, Accelerator controlled the wind, turning it into a heavy hammer, and hammered away like a blacksmith, striking Lin Wuming, who was lying on the ground... no, already deep in the crater in the ground.

Using a level 5's "Vector Transformation" to manipulate airflow was a real waste of talent. In less than three seconds, Accelerator had already unleashed more than a dozen hammer blows.

This small patch of heaven and earth was thrown into chaos, the atmosphere roared incessantly, and the surrounding buildings and ground were affected by the airwaves, constantly trembling and groaning.

It was as if the world was being destroyed by a wind disaster, like in a myth.

And this was just the power that Accelerator casually created when he was being willful—the unique power of the strongest level 5.

Right in the center of this apocalyptic disaster, Lin Wuming struggled to hold on.

Of course, he wasn't killed by Accelerator's attack, but he wasn't in good shape either.

After all, this was a fierce attack of "doomsday" level. It was already a miracle that he was still alive after being attacked with such force.

"Bullet Time" was the miracle that Lin Wuming possessed, and it was thanks to the buff of "Bullet Time" that Lin Wuming was able to hold on.

The method remained the same—constantly layering psychic barriers, using a little bit at a time to gradually consume the power of the attack and minimize the damage to himself.

The principle was simple but effective.

However, it was only limited to self-preservation. Lin Wuming remained buried as a sandbag throughout, without launching any counterattacks.

Because counterattacks were ineffective and would be reflected back as attacks against himself!

Lin Wuming could accept these air hammers for now, but if they were replaced with his psychic accelerated cannon, he felt he probably couldn't block it!

This was also the most troublesome aspect of Accelerator—physical attacks were basically ineffective against him, and might even have the opposite effect.

Just as Lin Wuming was about to be hammered all the way into the underground space, Himegami Aisa returned.

The bandages transformed into a piercing sword, stabbing directly at Accelerator's chest.

"Vector Transformation," the attack returned the way it came, and the soft bandages slammed into Himegami Aisa, causing no pain or itching.

Himegami Aisa ignored it and launched another attack.

"Again..."

Seeing this familiar scene, Accelerator was somewhat dazed, recalling the scene of his last duel with Lin Wuming—at the end of the battle, this girl had also rushed out to attack him.

At that time, Accelerator had discovered that her attack was very strange. He had clearly adjusted its vector, causing the attack to return the way it came, but in the end, only that strip of cloth returned to the girl, with no attack power at all!

—As expected of someone who is by Lin Wuming's side, she seems to be very powerful too...

Accelerator suddenly came back to his senses—Tch, what am I doing?

He was actually attacking Lin Wuming for no reason, and even trying to kill him!

He needed to remember that this was the only person who was on his side!

Realizing that he had almost killed his friend with his own hands, Accelerator immediately calmed down.

In an instant, the "apocalyptic disaster" disappeared, the sky cleared, and the weather was sunny and beautiful.

Only the mess all over the street silently told of the terror of the wind disaster just now.

Accelerator walked to the edge of the pit and looked at Lin Wuming below.

Himegami Aisa had already taken out a steel needle, ready to change weapons and launch an attack.

"Lin Wuming," Accelerator said, "You're too weak."

"..." Lin Wuming used his psychic power to support his body, got up from the wreckage on the ground, and silently stared at him.

"You..." Accelerator shook his head and suddenly turned his head away, "With only this much strength, you still want to beat me? Don't dream!"

With a cold snort, Accelerator turned around and walked away.

The security forces and Anti-Skill enforcers were all silent, and no one dared to step forward to stop him.

It wasn't just because they were afraid of the strength he had shown, but also because Accelerator had just proven in the most explosive way that he hadn't killed anyone—if he had, he wouldn't have been so petty.

More importantly, even Lin Wuming, who had been helping him all along, had been beaten up for no reason... no one wanted to provoke such a madman.

"Wuming!" Himegami Aisa pursed her lips, finally suppressing the urge to continue attacking Accelerator, and ran to Lin Wuming's side, "Are you okay?"

"Something's wrong," Lin Wuming pressed his chest, "It seems like I have a rib fracture. I need Dr. Heaven Canceller's help..."

At this time, the surrounding security teachers and Anti-Skill members gathered around to check on Lin Wuming's condition.

"...As expected," Lin Wuming murmured, "I still need to become stronger!"

—You're already very strong!

The people around him wanted to say this, and it was their sincere thought. Being bombarded by such a terrifying attack from Accelerator, and only suffering some rib fractures and other injuries, was already very surprising.

However, precisely because they had witnessed Accelerator's overwhelming power, such words of comfort could not be spoken to Lin Wuming.

In addition, they already knew that Lin Wuming had "failed" in the recent ability level test—he had failed to advance to level 4.

Therefore, people could understand his disappointment and regret.

"What exactly happened?" Yomikawa Aiho finally arrived at the scene, "Was there a typhoon here just now? It almost blew my car away!"

After roughly understanding the situation, Yomikawa Aiho didn't say much, but just took Lin Wuming's hand and walked towards the car.

"I'll take you to the hospital. You're really a handful!"

"Should I go to school?" Lin Wuming suddenly said, "It seems like it's better to start taking ability development courses sooner rather than later."

"Calm down, Wuming," Yomikawa Aiho said, "I know you're eager to become stronger right now, but you have to heal your injuries first!"

"Sensei is right," Shokuhou Misaki also said, "Moreover, Wuming-senpai is already very strong."

"That's not enough, not nearly enough!" Lin Wuming said, "Not nearly enough!"

"I know, what I mean is," Shokuhou Misaki explained, "Ordinary ability development courses are actually not very effective for Wuming-senpai, so it wouldn't do any good even if Wuming-senpai went to school right away."

Lin Wuming frowned.

"Don't worry," Shokuhou Misaki comforted, "Junko-nee is already trying to contact Kaihara, I believe that Wuming-senpai will be able to exchange ideas with him soon."

"..." Lin Wuming was silent for a moment, "I hope so."
