The Puppeteer of Academy City

Ready to go, Ling Xingye looked at his "equipment", then looked at the clown, curled his lips.

"Talk is better than nothing."

He is a puppet master, and the puppet is his weapon, but now this "puppet" is not very easy to manipulate...or in other words, it will be stronger without his manipulation.

Strictly speaking, it was actually he and the buffoon—Ling Qianji—who were fighting against Fang Zhishui 0 alone.

With the experience of fighting before, Ling Xingye is confident of winning the final victory.

"What needs to be done now..."

Ling Xingye used the generator to charge the battery pack, and used it to light up the lights and heaters in the warehouse.

After doing this, he sat back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

"Before dawn, let's continue to rest."

Outside is a vast and uninhabited snowfield, even if you go out, it is difficult to find the whereabouts of the enemy.

It's better to wait until dawn before leaving, because Fang Zhishui 0's obsession with himself may take the initiative to find him.

Feeling the gradually warmer indoor temperature, Ling Xingye no longer felt sleepy, so he turned on his phone and looked through various information from the headquarters.

Perhaps knowing Ling Xingye's current situation, the governing council specifically lifted some of the confidential information to the law enforcement team, and now it is also sent over.

I didn't have any personal experience when I was inside Academy City, but in fact the so-called "Third World War" has been raging like a raging fire for quite a while.

The fierce air battle outside Academy City is just one aspect of it. The battle that can truly be called "tragic" took place in the depths of the vast Eurasian continent.

Unlike wars in the usual sense, in this war between the Orthodox Church and Academy City, the main body of the battle is not ordinary army soldiers.

The Orthodox Knights and the special attack force secretly dispatched by Academy City chased and fought each other on the vast snowy field.

At the same time, Great Britain and France, which are secretly allied with Academy City, have also sent forces to contain the combat power of the Russian Orthodox Church...

All in all, all over Siberia right now, there are small but high-quality battles going on.

It can be called a world war between the mysterious side and the scientific side.

The intention of the General Council to provide information is also to hope that Ling Xingye can support their special attack force here.

But to be honest, Ling Xingye has no interest in these things, and he doesn't like the governing council and the chairman of Aleister.

Since Academy City is where he lives with Hitomi Shiranui and friends, he is willing to pay for protecting the city.

But this by no means means that he is willing to fight for Academy City.

Ling Xingye made up his mind that when fighting tomorrow, he must take the initiative to avoid these troubles.

During the long night, Ling Xingye dug out a few bags of instant coffee from the collected supplies, so he went out specially, collected some firewood and snow, and prepared to boil water to make coffee.

The coffee is naturally not a high-end product, and it has expired, so it will be left behind, right?

Noticing this, Ling Xingye began to miss the black tea made by Hitomi Shiranui.

However, there is nothing to be picky about under such conditions now. It would be nice to have a cup of hot coffee.

Pour hot water into the mug, break all the coffee powder and melt, Ling Xingye brought the coffee to the window while blowing hot air.

Only my own reflection can be seen on the window glass, and the outside of the house is dark, so I don't want to see any scenery at all.

This made Ling Xingye feel a little disappointed.

Suddenly, Ling Xingye seemed to catch a glimpse of a bright color from the corner of his vision.

Putting the mug on the windowsill, Ling Xingye closed his eyes.

After waiting for too long, two minutes later, there was a slight movement from the gate in the distance.

Since only the room where Ling Xingye was located in the entire building was powered on and had lights, the intruder approached without hesitation.

The opponent's movements are very light, but it's a pity that Ling Xingye has already set up silk threads at the entrances and exits of the building, just like a spider with an open web, and any disturbance in the territory cannot escape his perception.

The other party observed at the door for a while, and then rushed in brazenly!

Snapped!

Ling Xingye turned off the lights, then opened his eyes.

The intruder lost her vision because of the sudden darkness, but she didn't feel confused in her movements, and swung the hammer in her hand to attack the clown.

The clown took the attack lightly, trying to grab the girl. But the latter was very agile, let go of the hammer, and drew a new weapon as he stepped back—a saw.

"This kid is a carpenter?" Ling Xingye couldn't help guessing when he saw the weapon used by the girl and a set of other bits and pieces of metal tools hanging on her belt.

The intruder was a young girl, at least judging by her appearance, she was only fourteen or fifteen years old at most, and she looked underage.

But her attire was really strange. The "Qimen weapons" she used were okay, but what she was wearing was a tight-fitting straitjacket—for a young girl, this was really bad taste. It makes people wonder if she has any special hobbies.

But looking at her extraordinary skills, and wearing only such thin clothes in the ice and snow outside, she is by no means an ordinary person.

The girl is quite powerful, and it can be seen that she has a lot of combat experience, so she launched a series of attacks in a blink of an eye.

But in the eyes of Ling Xingye today, opponents at this level are not enough.

The clown easily dispelled all the girl's attacks.

The girl also understood the difference in strength between the two sides, and she immediately wanted to retreat.

Of course Ling Xingye couldn't let her run away like this, so he also stepped forward to block her retreat.

The girl immediately turned to Ling Xingye's side to seek a breakthrough, and then felt dizzy for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she found that she had been pushed down to the ground.

A few minutes later, the girl who had been **** with quick-setting silk thread was placed on the chair, and Ling Xingye sat down opposite her, picking up the mug again and looking at her.

This is a petite girl—it's hard to imagine such a powerful force erupting from such a small body just now. The golden hair hangs down, and the bangs cover the face, revealing only the cherry lips.

Looking carefully, she is a standard beautiful girl...except for this strange restraint outfit.

Ling Xingye had some guesses in his mind, generally this kind of guy with strange clothes and good fighting skills is undoubtedly a magician.

Images of Stiyl, Kanzaki Kaori, and Amakusa-style people popped up in his mind.

While thinking about how to ask questions, the girl spoke first.

"Question, who are you? Correction, are you human?"

Ling Xingye said: "It is polite to introduce yourself before asking others. And from the current standpoint, I should be the one asking you."

"Answer, I'm Sasha Kreutzeff, a combat nun from the Russian Orthodox Special Forces' Annihilating White Book." The girl replied.

"Additionally, I'm sorry for the rash attack. This is a misunderstanding. I'm afraid I got the wrong target."

"Whether you misunderstood or not is not something you just said casually." Ling Xingye shook his head.

Sasha looked over seriously, and said: "Explanation, according to the information I have, you are Ling Xingye, a senior puppet master belonging to the Silver Organization, and the top powerhouse in Academy City, the sixth-ranked 'puppet manipulation'! I mistook your puppet for..."

"Stop, stop, stop," Ling Xingye quickly interrupted~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Everything I said earlier is fine, what's the situation with the sixth one? "

"Explanation, among the eight Level 5 superpowers in Academy City, the sixth-ranked superpower is long-term famous, and there is a legend that you are 'puppet manipulation'."

"Don't use urban legends as a source of information, is your informant Saten Reniko?" Ling Xingye couldn't help complaining.

According to Sasha's explanation, when she passed a village ten kilometers away, she found that it was attacked by unknown forces. She decided to help, but found that the attacker was not a human being, but an automatic puppet!

The entire town was slaughtered and plundered by the automatic puppets, and Sasha was alone, unable to save the town.

Feeling unwilling, she followed all the way, trying to find the base camp of the automatic puppet and go straight to Huanglong.

In the end, I lost my track and found this abandoned natural gas station alone.

Then he mistook the clown for an automatic puppet, and rushed in.

"Please, let me go, we are companions to eliminate automatic puppets."

"Companion? Your Chengjiao is at war with our Academy City." Ling Xingye rolled his eyes, but let go of the other party.

He doesn't think Sasha is lying? And with her attire, no matter how she tied her up, she felt even more lustful, which was really embarrassing.

"By the way," Ling Xingye looked at Sasha's outfit, "Is this your uniform for 'annihilating Baishu?"

"How could such a shameful thing be used as a uniform!" Sasha jumped up excitedly.
