The Puppeteer of Academy City

"It's dawn! It's dawn!"

Suddenly, someone rushed in from the temporary refuge in the gymnasium and cheered loudly.

Hulala, all the people in the refuge rushed to the exit.

"Quiet! Calm down, the danger is not over yet, please calm down!" The security teacher in charge of maintaining order hastily shouted.

In the refuge, except for a few adults from enterprises and research institutes, most of them were children who were evacuated from the thirteenth school district.

For these children who are still elementary school or even kindergarten students, the "danger outside" does not have any strong feelings, just think it is an interesting adventure experience.

It was the adults present who were excited, and under their influence, the children rushed forward as if to join in the fun.

Fortunately, since they were all children, they still listened to the teacher's words, and order was barely restored at the scene.

"Calm down, everyone, please be patient until you receive the order to lift the alarm!" The security teacher comforted the crowd while sending someone out to check the situation and contact the headquarters.

The children were very curious about the "dawn" scene outside, but unfortunately they were restrained by the teacher and could not sneak out to find out.

But not everyone was so curious. In the corner, there were a few children who completely ignored the commotion at the door and stared straight ahead.

In the corner by the wall, sat a funny clown, telling stories to the children vividly.

Not only was he telling a story, the clown also spread out an octavo-sized picture book in front of him, and narrated it with illustrations.

Although the props were a bit simple, the audience was fascinated by the superb performance of the clown.

"...In this way, the hero defeats the villain and wins the final victory."

The picture book was turned to the last page, on which was a picture of a hero wearing armor and looking up at the sky with a sword, and a villain lying unconscious at his feet, a picture of the finale.

The clown clapped his hands and said happily, "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations."

"And then?" A girl at the bottom asked Fan.

"That's the end of the story, another story will follow." The clown grinned, and the makeup on his face made his smile even more exaggerated.

The children made unsatisfactory voices and asked the clown to continue talking.

But the clown was very persistent and refused to speak again, which disappointed the children very much.

"Loki, Loki," one of the boys called the Joker's name, "did the hero finally kill the villain?"

"This..." Clown Loki tilted his head, "What do you think?"

"The villain has done so many bad things, he must have been beaten to death!" Someone immediately said.

"But heroes don't kill people." The girl retorted. "It must be to defeat the villain, and then put him in prison."

"Hmm..." Loki the clown pondered for a moment, touched the picture book, and the page that was already at the end suddenly turned another page, "No, the hero didn't kill the villain, and the villain was brought back by his companions in the end."

Two female warriors appeared on the screen, fleeing away with the seriously injured villain. The hero just watched from the sidelines and did not stop them.

"Hey~" The children suddenly cried out in dissatisfaction, "How could this be? It's a lie, how could the hero let the villain escape?"

The clown Rocky laughed: "I'm not lying. Because, the clown, I... never, no, lie!"

…

Ling Xingye and Misaka Mikoto looked up at the sky together, and the floating fortress above their heads seemed to be speeding away from the sky above Academy City.

"Maybe the decisive battle at sea is about to begin." Ling Xingye speculated.

Suddenly, Misaka Mikoto turned her head and looked northeast: "Xingye, something is coming, very fast!"

Ling Xingye also noticed the strangeness over there, and manipulated the sprites to block them silently.

Soon they saw that there were two figures rushing towards this side at high speed—at a speed that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

This speed is nothing. Both Ling Xingye and Misaka Mikoto have high-speed movement methods, and their running speed is no worse than these two. But when I got closer, I found that the two girls on the opposite side did not rely on any external force, and they were running in a normal posture, which was very surprising.

"They..." Misaka Mikoto couldn't help being dumbfounded.

"That's right, only relying on physical strength, and not using any weird abilities." Ling Xingye nodded solemnly.

This means that the two comers have superhuman physiques.

And this kind of unreasonable physical fitness, Ling Xingye had only seen it on one person before.

—"The Saint of the Far East" Kanzaki Kaori!

"So, two saints?" Misaka Mikoto's expression became serious.

Saints are the top existence on the magic side. Except for Kanzaki Kaori who has a good relationship with them, all other saints can be considered as potential enemies of Academy City.

In just a few words of conversation between the two, two saints, Sylvia and "Valkyrie" Brunhed, had already arrived.

"'Railgun' and 'Puppet Manipulation'!" Sylvia also looked at this side solemnly.

"Ah!" Brunshid next to him suddenly exclaimed, "Is that the land on the left?"

Pointing to the ground not far away, she said that the body was no longer human.

The atmosphere on both sides is even more tense, swords are on the verge of breaking out, and war may start at any time.

Although Sylvia and Brunshid are powerful saints, after the brief "tour" in Academy City just now, they no longer have the intention of underestimating the top combat power Level 5 in Academy City.

——"Atomic Crash" and "Ice Age" are already very powerful, and the "Railgun" ranked third, even if it is not as good as Accelerator, it must not be so bad, right?

What's more, there is Ling Xingye who has the dual identities of a superpower and a silver puppet master beside him. Although it is only level 3, it is said that the actual combat power is no less than level 5.

In addition, there is a God's Right Seat next to it as a footnote...

The two saints didn't feel that they had much advantage at all.

After being silent for a while, Silvia adjusted the goggles on her forehead and spoke first: "Please don't get me wrong, we are not hostile!"

Brunshid on the side curled his lips: "They broke into other people's territory, and they said there was no hostility. Does anyone really believe it?"

"Idiot, shut up if you can't speak! This is negotiation!" Sylvia sighed while resting her forehead.

Brunhide put her door-panel sword on her shoulders: "Well, but we really don't mean to go to war. We just popped in to have a look, and we didn't do anything bad."

Realistically feeling the strength of the two saints, Misaka Mikoto was crackling like lightning, her face full of eagerness to try.

But suddenly remembered what Ling Xingye said just now, so he suppressed the fighting spirit in his heart and turned to look at Ling Xingye.

Ling Xingye carefully looked at the two people on the opposite side, and then looked at the city in the sky. Make sure they really want to evacuate.

"Are you going back to participate in the next decisive battle?" Ling Xingye asked.

"No, the next war is a matter of teaching oneself, we are just here to witness." Silvia said.

Ling Xingye pulled Misaka Mikoto out of the way.

"Let's go~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I won't be an example."

The two saints passed Ling Xingye and Misaka Mikoto on guard, and when they passed the "corpse" on the left, Silvia suddenly stopped.

"Can I take this with me?"

"Yes." Ling Xingye said without thinking.

Silvia lifted the hem of her apron, bowed to him, and then left quickly with the land to the left.

"Xingye, are you really going to let them go like this?" Misaka Mikoto asked in confusion, "And, the land on the left is still alive, right?"

Ling Xingye didn't take it seriously, and even felt relieved.

"It's just a useless person, don't worry." He rubbed his temples wearily, "And, if you don't want to bring the war to Academy City, this is the best choice..."

In the underground block, the crow shook his head in disappointment and flew away along the tunnel.

"Sure enough... the matter of revenge is for us to do it ourselves."
