The Puppeteer of Academy City

Along the steel corridor, Ling Xingye ran all the way.

The sprites ran in front of him, and the two figures flitted across the dark corridor like two phantoms.

Fortunately, there was really no second enemy in the long corridor, and Ling Xingye was able to pass unimpeded all the way.

Not long after, Ling Xingye saw the end of the corridor, where there was a gate.

Ling Xingye didn't slow down in the slightest, and the monster even accelerated to rush over.

boom!

The loud crash echoed in the corridor.

The gate, which was also made of steel, was seriously deformed. Immediately afterwards, the flying blade shot out, cutting the gate open along the cracked crack.

Only then did Ling Xingye slow down a little, letting the sprites break through the door first.

Still haven't encountered any attacks.

"Could it be that the automatic puppets are all attracted by the action team?" Ling Xingye murmured in his heart, "It doesn't matter, first find Leizi and meet her."

Ever since he came to the floating fortress in Yanshi, it has revealed strangeness everywhere. Although he didn't meet any decent enemies, and Yuan Shanyao's "prophecy" guaranteed him, Ling Xingye was still worried.

After all, Saten Ruiko is a level 0! If she is in danger, her combat power is almost negligible—not all level9s foul like Kamijou Touma.

Saten Ruiko's puppet "troubleshooter" has some skills, but if you encounter a real automatic puppet, it's hard to say that you can't wait to protect the master.

It was from this direction that I heard Saten Saten's scream just now. There is no fork in the corridor, and it goes all the way to the end, so it is impossible to find the wrong one.

but…

"What do the automatic puppets think of this place? Amusement park?" Ling Xingye looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly.

After passing through the gate, I didn't come outside, but... a maze of mirrors.

boom! There was a sound behind him.

Ling Xingye looked back, and saw a mirror rising from the ground, sealing the entrance.

Make him fall into the mirror world completely.

In all directions, above the head and under the feet, there are reflections of Ling Xingye himself and monsters everywhere, overlapping and endless, extending infinitely into the mirror...

Although Ling Xingye didn't move, it didn't take long for him to lose his direction.

While he was still sure that there was a gate entrance behind him, Ling Xingye tried to manipulate the monster to reopen the exit.

But when the monster punched two times, the mirror surface was rippled like mercury, but otherwise it was unscathed.

Sure enough, this is no ordinary mirror.

Ling Xingye gave up his plan to return the same way, and could only move forward.

Exploring the maze is not a problem for Ling Xingye. After releasing the thread and phase fulcrum, Ling Xingye quickly began to explore the correct route.

Because in this environment, what the eyes see will only cause trouble, so Ling Xingye simply closes his eyes and relies on silk feedback to perceive the outside world.

With the phase fulcrum instead of his own pathfinding, Ling Xingye can quickly conquer the maze. The correct route was found within a few minutes.

In fact, according to the normal situation, there are corresponding automatic puppets stationed in the mirror maze. In this special environment, even the silver puppet master couldn't break through easily.

It's a pity that Ling Xingye still didn't encounter the enemy's blocking along the way.

It is equivalent to walking for a while in the dark, and the time spent here is no more than five minutes.

Walking out of the mirror maze, Ling Xingye finally came outside.

But after such a delay, Saten Ruiko had already been lost.

Helpless, Ling Xingye had no choice but to move on.

Outside is a wide road, just like the previous "garden", empty and featureless.

Ling Xingye felt a little regretful. Before coming here, he should have communicated with Chairman Aleister to obtain the latest information here.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be as dark as it is now.

The sky was getting dark, and Ling Xingye used the sun to identify the direction, and then proceeded along the road.

The city was still silent, not much movement could be heard.

But along the way, Ling Xingye found that the surrounding buildings and roads began to be damaged, and the traces seemed to be quite new.

It must be the trace left by the action team not long ago.

Ling Xingye knew that he had found the right route, so he lifted his spirits and stepped a little faster.

After another three kilometers, when passing by a forest of metal monuments, Ling Xingye suddenly heard the sound of an explosion coming from inside.

With a thought in his heart, he immediately turned around and entered the forest of monuments.

Soon, I saw bursts of flames ahead, accompanied by a rolling heat wave.

Looking up, Lily Mezzas spread her wings and was fighting fiercely with a "flying dragon" in the air.

Looking at the "Flying Dragon" full of mechanical style, Ling Xingye knew that it was an automatic puppet.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Xingye saw a familiar figure behind a monument below.

The other party also noticed Ling Xingye's arrival, and waved in this direction together, looking very excited.

"Hitomi! And Misaka 10001?" Ling Xingye hurried over, seeing that they were safe and sound, he was finally relieved.

The flying dragon puppet in the air also noticed Ling Xingye and roared immediately.

The Forest of Steles shook.

Countless monuments collapsed, and the entire forest of steles seemed to be razed to the ground in an instant.

The collapsed monument deformed and turned into puppets, attacking Ling Xingye and the others.

"I knew it!" Misaka 10001's body flashed with lightning, "Just now I felt that the internal structure of these monuments was too complicated, and it turned out that it included a deformation mechanism."

Ling Xingye stood in front of the two girls and manipulated the sprites to rush into the enemy group and kill all directions. He himself also wielded the flying blade, cutting open puppets one after another. In terms of killing efficiency, he was no worse than sprites.

Misaka 10001 tried to fire nails with a weakened version of the "Railgun", but the effect was limited. So simply use electromagnetic force to push down the monument puppet, or lift it up and smash it at other puppets around it.

Not long after the battle, Ling Xingye realized that the enemy was very weak, and under his and Yaomen's hands, there was almost no one-on-one enemy!

Because these monument puppets are pure puppets, without self-awareness, not even automatic puppets.

They are the guardian army of this forest of steles, and they are also the forest of steles itself. To be precise, they are just appendages of the "Flying Dragon" puppet in the sky.

Facing this kind of enemy, Ling Xingye can rush into the enemy formation without any scruples~www.wuxiaspot.com~Of course, considering that there are two girls behind him, especially Shiranuo Tong, Ling Xingye's fight is relatively good Conservative, no risky advances, eager for success.

"Speaking of which," Ling Xingye asked suddenly, "Where did Meiqin go?"

According to him, Misaka Mikoto and Misaka 10001 should stay with Hitomi Shiranui to protect her safety.

But now when I saw them, I realized that Misaka Mikoto was missing.

Misaka 10001 raised his finger and pointed to the mid-air on the other side, where there was a model of a bonsai-sized mountain.

The domain of Yanshi - Fangcun Mountain.

It turned out that Misaka Mikoto took the initiative to stay behind after encountering a strong enemy. The results were incorporated into the field and have not come out until now.

Fortunately, Lily Mezas appeared in time and flew into the sky to block the most dangerous enemy for them.
