The road to completion starts from the Gate of Truth

For this sudden change in the ranking of superpowers, she was already very unhappy about being ranked behind [A Certain Scientific Railgun]. When she saw that her ranking had moved back one more place, she couldn't help it. She didn't admit that the eighth place had inexplicably risen to the third place, and she was even more unwilling to admit her current ranking.

Therefore, Miss Flanda, who accidentally told the truth, immediately hurt Mai Ye Shenli's most sensitive nerve.

"Eh?" At this time, the blonde girl, whose upper and lower parts of her body were still connected, tilted her head in a silly way. It took her two seconds to react and realized that she had accidentally made a mistake again.

So...　　"Hey hey (　　Frenda acted cute, trying to get away with it.

"Frenda~~!!!"　　Bang——!　　The heavy iron fist hit the beret girl's head, and she immediately crouched with her head in her hands.

...　　After severely ravaging the ignorant Frenda, Mai Ye Shenli finally vented some of the anger in her heart.

After regaining her composure, she finally talked about business: "We have been commissioned to attack the 'fifth' (emphasis) Shokuhou Misaki, and at the same time capture the 'talent house' in the second school district, but we can't cause too much damage inside."

"Hey~~Can't cause too much damage...It's a very~troublesome commission!"　　The petite girl with a hood and a shoulder-length brown bob complained that it was troublesome.

This is Kinuhata's favorite , whose ability is Lv.4 [Nitrogen Armor], is a person who can freely manipulate nitrogen in the air, and is also an attacker in the Item.

"Is there something important in that person's room?" Another girl with black shoulder-length hair and a lazy look as if she couldn't wake up asked.

This is Takitsubo Rikou, whose ability is Lv.4 [Ability Tracking], which can search and lock the location information of the ability user based on the AIM diffusion field she once remembered. In theory, even if the opponent escapes outside the solar system, he can search and capture his whereabouts at any time.

But if she wants to use her ability to the limit, she must use the "body crystal" powder with strong side effects, which will have a great negative impact on the body.

At the same time, she is also the real core of this Anbu team. If she can If they grow up smoothly, they are likely to become new superpowers, who can freely manipulate other people's [personal reality] through the AIM diffusion field, and can arbitrarily enhance, weaken, exchange, change the abilities of others, and even create "multiple abilities".

When she heard the content of the commission conveyed by Mai Ye Shen Li, she was very sensitive and discovered the problems revealed in the commission.

However, Mai Ye Shen Li's attitude towards this is - "Well~~! We are just 'props', and we just need to complete the tasks issued by the upper level. What secrets are behind the specific tasks have nothing to do with us!" As an "old man" who has lived in the dark for a long time, Mai Ye Shen Li knows very well that sometimes, "knowing too much" can really kill people! "But, with the ability of the big sister, it doesn't cause Destruction is super~impossible, right?" Kinuhata said the most crucial question - indeed, Maiyano Shiori's ability [Atomic Disintegration] itself is extremely destructive, even so great that it is likely to hurt the user himself, and she herself is also very brutal in battle, with a strong desire for destruction. It is too difficult to ask her to complete the task without causing too much damage... "So, the 'talented room' is left to you Kinuhata. Your ability is the least destructive, so it is most appropriate to leave this to you. " Fortunately, Maiyano Shiori already has a plan in mind: "As for the fifth person (emphasis), leave it to me. Frenda, you are responsible for dealing with those who may be controlled by the other party's ability, and Takitsubo, you are responsible for tracking the other party's position when necessary.

Do you understand?" "Ah~~ I have to deal with the 'talented room' alone, it sounds super~~ interesting! "　　Hearing that she was assigned to act alone and face an entire organization by herself, Kinuhata Zuiai also became a little excited - in previous missions, Maiyano Shiori often solved all the enemies in a few "swishes", and she often finished the mission just after warming up. This time, it seems that she can finally do something big!　　"Yes!!!" This is Frenda who is very active in order to restore the impression in Maiyano Shiori's eyes.

"Got it~~" This is Takitsubo Rikou, whose voice is exhausted.

"Then, let's get started! "As the leader, Mai Ye Shenli waved his slender hand and issued an order.

... Neither Shokuhou Misaki nor Fang Yuan knew that their unpleasant meeting this time had become a variable that had to be eliminated in the eyes of some people.

Well, Fang Yuan might have noticed something. After all, someone was monitoring his store in various ways, and he could see it clearly.

However, even he didn't know that Kihara Gensei was supposed to start the action of seizing the [External Brain] in late September, but he didn't expect that in this real world where many subtle changes have taken place, it was suddenly brought forward to now.

Even the "Item" that was supposed to fight against Misaka Mikoto in the "Absolute Ability Evolution Plan" was accidentally preparing to cause trouble for Shokuhou Misaki.

PS: Today is the second update')328'\u003eChapter 327: Raid and siege, the queen in desperate situation?

Boom—boom—boom—! The explosion-like noise was getting closer and closer, and the researchers inside the talent laboratory were panicking and packing up important documents and preparing to take refuge.

"Damn it! We were actually beaten inside! Are those security personnel just for a living?!" Someone complained loudly.

The armed personnel of the institute were so vulnerable to the enemy. From the time the intruders appeared at the gate to the time the entire defense system was defeated, it took less than 20 minutes in total, which was not even time for the researchers who had no combat effectiveness to move. nothing.

"Quick, forget about those materials for now, let's leave first!" The researcher who looked like the leader shouted loudly, dragging the last batch of evacuating colleagues, throwing down a lot of cumbersome documents, and heading towards the secret escape passage. go.

But, at this moment——Boom——! ! ! The door of this laboratory was blown away by a huge force. The thick door panel that flew out was like a super-large discus. It hit the emergency escape elevator directly opposite the door with a clang, blocking everyone's access. Way to go.

Tap, tap, tap - A slender figure walked out from behind the open door.

"Ah, ah, ah, you have so many defenses here! It actually took me almost half an hour to break through!" Kinuhata's favorite, who had just fought his way in from numerous defenses and traps, used her That unique mouth habit laments the tight defense of this research institute.

"You, who are you? Why are you attacking here?!" The researcher who looked like the person in charge before suppressed his trembling legs and boldly stepped out and asked.

"Anbu 'Item' is doing business. As for why they are attacking you, I blame you Chao~ You must have followed the wrong people!" These people in front of you are already the last people left in the "Talent Workshop". Aren't the others already there? Even if he evacuates, he has already fallen into her hands. Kinuhata's favorite would not mind revealing his identity to them so that they can understand before they die.

In other words, she wanted to see the frightened expressions of these researchers when they heard the name of ANBU's "Item". For Kinuhata, who likes to watch horror movies, it is also a rare pastime during the mission. .

However, the behavior of these researchers who had no time to escape was completely different from what she had imagined - "Ah, thank you for telling me!" The researchers who were originally so frightened that they could hardly stand still seemed to be unable to stand at this time. No matter how scared they are, everyone's face is expressionless and their eyes are dull, as if they are being controlled by someone.

Kinuhata's favorite frowned, sensing something was wrong.

Bang——! Bang——! Bang——! After knocking down these researchers who seemed to have problems a few times, the bob-haired girl knelt down and inspected them carefully.

Then, she discovered that the mobile phone in the pocket of a researcher showed "on a call", and the person on the call was none other than Shokuhou Misaki, another target of the "Item" operation.

"... Do you want to pass the information back to the [Psychological Master] at all costs? He is really a super loyal subordinate!" Kinuhata loves to know that this kind of loyalty cannot happen naturally. After all, in Academy City, The vast majority of researchers treat people with abilities as if they are guinea pigs.

The only way that these people could risk their lives to pass on the information was because Shokuhou Misaki used her own abilities to plant hints in their minds in advance.

This may be an insurance measure set up by the Queen of Bees just in case, but it is a pity - Silk Flag Favorite shook his head and said sarcastically: "It's a pity that your master is also himself now. There's no guarantee! "..."Click-" After closing the phone that had lost its signal, Shokuhou Misaki's usual smile disappeared completely.

"So, are you the ones who want to do something to me?" Shokuhou Misaki didn't expect that today she was just invited to a medical institution to make mental adjustments to the Misaka sisters who had regained their freedom, but she didn't expect that she would be there. On the way back, they were intercepted and ambushed.

And more importantly, her base camp, the "Talented Labor Room", was also raided at the same time, and it seems that it has been completely destroyed now.

As for the person who ambushed her... In front of her, a tall girl walked up. Although she had never actually met her, Shokuhou Misaki knew her identity - she was also a superpower. One of them, Mugino Shinri, was ranked just above him in [Atomic Breakdown].

Turning to look behind him, another petite blond girl wearing a beret was blocking the retreat. She took out several dolls from the mysterious area under her skirt and prepared to throw them.

Although it may seem ridiculous, in this case, no one would think that those puppets are really just harmless toys.

"Anbu 'Item'...it's really troublesome!" When the girls following Shokuhou Misaki heard the name "ANBU", they immediately formed a warning formation.

"Lord Shokuhou, please use our power!" As members of the Shokuhou faction, these girls were captured by Shokuhou Misaki's personality charm. , willingly controlled by her ability.

Shokuhou Misaki: "..." The queen was hesitating. She knew that the opponent in front of her was not Misaka Mikoto, whom she had always pranked, but a real cold-blooded killer who had been fighting in the dark for an unknown amount of time. She would not be like Misaka Mikoto. Show mercy to the innocent.

Once she involves the faction members around her in a Level 5 battle, it is very likely, no, it should be said that there will definitely be casualties.

But without them by his side, his [psychological mastery] ability would not be very effective against Mugino Shimari, who can manipulate free electrons - although the ranking of ability users is versatile and researchable considerations, but the gap in combat effectiveness also accounts for a large proportion.

And if we just talk about who is stronger in a fight between Mugino Shinri and Shokuhou Misaki... Unfortunately, the queen who controls the swarm is at an overwhelming disadvantage when she is alone! In other words, you are definitely losing! And Shokuhou Misaki will not even think about what good results will come after he is defeated by ANBU people - maybe simply being killed neatly can be considered the best result! Looking at the sisters standing around him, whether to let them join the battle or let them leave was a difficult decision for Shokuhou Misaki.

No, maybe, you can try that—— Shokuhou Misaki recalled the card he put at the bottom of his bag. If, if that thing really has that kind of power, maybe it can...') 329 '\u003eChapter 328 Human beings cannot escape the law of "true fragrance"...

Beep—— The click of the remote control sounded, but it was not the two Items who were being controlled, but the faction members surrounding Shokuhou Misaki.

"Oh? Is this your decision? Do you think these cannon fodders can handle me?" Mugino Shenli saw the stars shining in the eyes of the girls wearing Tokiwadai uniforms, and thought Shokuhou was praying He intends to use precise control to control his subordinates for coordinated operations.

Seeing this, Mugino Shenli also immediately activated his ability.

She saw a group of green light appearing next to her. This was a free electron stripped from the atom under the influence of her ability. It existed in an ambiguous state between particles and waves. When it was emitted, At this time, it is a nearly indestructible energy beam.

However, unexpectedly, the faction members who were controlled by Shokuhou Misaki did not attack, but dispersed, revealing the queen herself who was surrounded in the middle.

"Huh?" Such an abnormal scene made Mugino Shenli feel a little surprised. He didn't know what this [psychological control] was doing, so he didn't launch an attack immediately.

"No, they are not cannon fodder. I am enough to deal with you!" Shokuhou Misaki held the remote control in one hand, but in the other hand, she secretly held a seemingly ordinary picture. card.

"'Crush it when you want to use it.'

That’s what the store manager said! " Shokuhou Misaki secretly made up her mind. In order to protect the faction members who followed her, no matter what hidden plots or troubles there were in this so-called "spiritual base", she took over them! Snap - The card is like plastic It was made the same, but Shokuhou Misaki crushed it with just a firm grip.

At this moment, Shokuhou Caoqi even thought about whether this card was fake, and what if the store manager deceived him... But the next moment, when the broken card turned into countless When the light spots integrated into her body, Shokuhou Misaki knew that the store manager had not lied to her, and that the card was indeed real! Immediately afterwards, the knowledge and information that poured into her mind out of thin air immediately reassured the Queen, who had not had much hope of being able to escape safely this time.

"What?!" Mugino Shenri didn't realize that Shokuhou Misaki had a card hidden in his hand just now, but when the card shattered into countless light spots and merged into Shokuhou's body, the vision revealed could not be hidden from anyone. of.

Thinking that this "fifth" (Mugino Shinri's standard) was launching an attack, or making some small moves, Mugino Shinri, who didn't want any mistakes in this action, made a prompt decision and launched an attack directly.

Biu——The green light group turned into rays of the same color, and shot towards Shokuhou Soki's right hand holding the remote control without mercy.

——Because the commission stated that Shokuhou Soki should be captured alive as much as possible, so Mugino Shinri did not directly kill him, but the client only requested to capture him alive, so cutting off one of his limbs should not matter! Mugino Shinri, who had a sadistic heart, was looking forward to seeing Shokuhou Misaki covering her severed hand and wailing in despair.

But the next moment, Mugino Shenli did not see the scene of blood splattering that he expected.

Dang——Zizi——! A silver-white spear appeared in Shokuhou Misaki's hand at some point. The tip of the spear reflecting silver light was right in front of the green beam, allowing the high-energy electron beam to wash away and block it firmly. A few feet in front of me.

No, if you look carefully, you will find that what blocked Mugino Shenli's attack was not the gun head itself, but a thin layer of flame burning on the gun tip.

At this time, Mugino Shenli noticed that Shokuhou Misaki, who was originally wearing the Tokiwadai school uniform, suddenly changed his attire.

A set of women's battle armor with a black short skirt as the base and delicate silver-blue armor on the limbs and waist. It is a mixture of classical and modern, heroic and charming, and is put on Shokuhou Misaki. .

Moreover, it was not just the clothes and attire, but even Shokuhou Misaki's appearance had changed dramatically. Her honey-colored waist-length hair instantly turned into silver hair that reached her calves and glowed with a faint blue light, which matched the armor that reflected the same color, and it was very complementary.

Of course, it was not important to Mai Ye Shi Li that Shokuhou Misaki became more beautiful after putting on the new clothes.

What was important was why the [Psychological Mastery] that she thought was already within her grasp suddenly changed like this! 　　"You...what did you just do?!" Mai Ye Shi Li confirmed that the figure in front of her seemed to have changed. It was the previous [Psychological Mastery]. Through the communicator in her ear, Takitsubo Riko also confirmed to her that the AIM diffusion field did belong to Shokuhou Misaki herself.

Then, the root cause of all the changes must be the light spot that had merged into Shokuhou Misaki's body before. Could it be that this was the secret weapon of the fifth (Mai Ye Shi Li standard)? Well, in the commission email, some content was also vaguely revealed, saying that Shokuhou Misaki seemed to have obtained some unknown trump cards recently, but the specific details were not clear. Mai Ye Shenli had not taken it to heart before, until now, seeing the sudden change of the target person, she realized that this [Psychological Mastery] ranked behind her really had a trick up its sleeve! "So that's it, the so-called spiritual base is like this! Brunhilde... the Valkyrie in Norse mythology?" Shokuhou Misaki did not answer Mai Ye Shenli's question, but quietly sensed her own changes.

She could feel that her original weak physique of a sports loser suddenly rose several levels after using the gift from the mysterious store manager. Feeling the power hidden in the tendons and muscles of her limbs, she even felt that her current physique alone was equivalent to a person with a physical enhancement ability above Lv.4.

Not to mention, the power called "skills" and "treasures" that came with the spiritual base entering the body made Shokuhou Misaki deeply feel how unfathomable the store manager who could give away such precious treasures was! 　　"Being able to materialize armor and weapons with thoughts, and this flame... is it called [Magic Release (Flame)]... This kind of instinct-like power is indeed a completely different system from superpowers!" Just at the moment when she was about to be hit by Mugino Shiori's attack, Shokuhou Misaki instinctively materialized the spear as a weapon and the flame power attached to the spear blade, and then as if she had trained thousands of times, her body moved without thinking, and blocked the attack before her consciousness could react.

Swish-swish-Shokuhou Misaki waved the spear casually, and she felt very comfortable, as if she was a spear master who was used to using the spear. At the same time, all kinds of gun experience and fighting routines emerged in her mind, and in an instant, she, a physical skill useless who was out of breath after running a few steps, became a master of armed combat.

"It seems that their help is not needed!" Shokuhou Misaki pointed the gun at Mai Ye Shen Li in front of her, and controlled her followers to leave the battlefield quickly.

She is now confident that she can repel all the enemies in front of her by herself! ')330'\u003eChapter 329 A close combat that can't fire a light cannon is not a good heroic spirit!

"I say, you guy... I'm asking you, what did you do?!" Seeing that Shokuhou Misaki didn't pay any attention to her question, Mai Ye Shen Li, who felt that he was despised, suddenly sank his face and asked again with anger.

"Ah, I'm so sorry! I'm not familiar with the new power yet, just think of it as my new clothes!" Shokuhou Misaki, who had regained her confidence, squinted one eye and made a cute expression, but this not only did not make Mai Ye Shenli cute, but also reminded her of the pitfall next to her who also liked to act cute. Suddenly, her mood, which had already become very bad due to the sudden change, became even worse.

"... Forget it, I don't care what happened to you, anyway, die!!!" Mai Ye Shenli, who had already made up her mind to kill, no longer cared about the commission to capture her alive. She burst out with all her strength and didn't care whether she would accidentally kill Shokuhou Misaki. Green beams of light blasted towards the heroic figure in armor and holding a gun.

No, looking at that posture, she was completely going to kill the other party! 　　... "Wow~!!! Mai Ye is furious!" On the other side, Flanda saw Mai Ye Shenli bombarding with a big move, and was immediately scared and hid far away with her head in her arms.

Anyway, since Shokuhou Misaki had actively dismissed the people around her, her mission no longer needed to be completed. In such a situation where she could be accidentally injured by the boss's attack if she was not careful, it was better not to participate in such a battle...

...

"Tsk!" Mai Ye Shen Li's already gloomy face became even gloomier when facing Shokuhou Misaki, who remained unscathed in her fierce attack and was constantly approaching her.

But seeing the opponent's spear flashing with flames and cold light, she also knew that if she was approached, she would have no other fate except being stabbed to death.

After the [Psychological Control] was revealed, the transformation and contrast were too great.

Who would have thought that a junior high school girl who was originally powerless and had no other power except mental control would become a Valkyrie in an instant? 　　But the reality is already like this. Although Mai Ye Shen Li was very unhappy about this, she was not the kind of brainless reckless person. Facing the Valkyrie with a gun approaching step by step, she continued to increase the density of her attacks while also having to retreat step by step to try to keep a longer distance from the opponent.

——When a wizard faces close combat, kiting is common sense! 　　But this premise is that the warrior cannot fire a light cannon! 　　Boom——!! ! 　　Just after Shokuhou Misaki dodged a series of beam attacks, the spear-wielding girl took advantage of the gap in the attack caused by Mai Ye Shen Li's retreat, and then the raging flames gushed out from the gun body of the spear in her hand, turning into a huge flame column with a diameter of several meters, and slammed towards the opponent.

"!!!" 　　Faced with such a sudden long-range attack, Mai Ye Shen Li, who thought that the opponent was just a melee fighter, was immediately shocked and angry. Facing such a large-scale attack, she had no time to dodge.

Since she couldn't dodge, she didn't dodge! 　　Although Mai Ye Shen Li's ability was too violent and difficult to control, it was most suitable for attack, but this did not mean that she had no defensive moves.

Stretching the ambiguous electron group between the wave state and the particle state into a flat barrier, the high-energy free electrons that were enough to burn and vaporize all matter were enough to defend against most attacks in this world.

Flame, of course, was no exception.

Huh——After a short burst, the attack of the Flame Pillar temporarily retreated. Mai Ye Shenli removed the life-size energy shield in front of her and saw the miserable scene of the flames raging in front of her.

"Where does this guy get the ability to get angry? Is she a multi-talented person?! No, could it be that spear..." Mai Ye Shenli, who had no idea about the existence of the spiritual base and a certain store, was very surprised at the sudden change in the style of Shokuhou Misaki's ability at this time.

That kind of unscientific mobility is fine, it can be said that the other party has undergone rigorous training, or it can be said that the brain's subconscious restrictions on movement are actively removed by mental ability. There are all kinds of possibilities. At most, it can only be said that Shokuhou Misaki's usual disguise as a sports waste lady is very successful and has deceived everyone.

However, the sudden appearance of armor and spears, as well as the subsequent flame attack, made Mai Ye Shenli unable to figure it out.

Let's call it technology, but Academy City doesn't seem to have such technology to materialize matter out of thin air. Let's call it ability, but the ability user can only have one ability.

However, no matter how confused Mai Ye Shenli was, she was only clear about one thing. The Shokuhou Misaki who turned into a Valkyrie in front of her was no longer the weakling she expected to be easily dealt with, but became a very powerful and difficult enemy! 　　…　　In the windowless building, Aleister, who was hanging upside down in the life support device, looked at the scene of the two Lv.5 fighting in front of him, and evaluated the power essence of the newly transformed [Psychological Mastery] in his heart.

"Brunhild? Although it looks like a God's Descendant made based on legends and beliefs, it is completely different from the traditional God's Descendant technology of the magic side. It does not borrow the power of other phases. It is really a magical technology.

It seems that the previous Tsuchimikado Motoharu and that Saten Ruiko used the same technology!"　　Because Shokuhou Misaki accidentally talked to herself and said the real name of the Heroic Spirit in the Spiritual Base, Aleister finally got a glimpse of the essence of Fangyuan's technology to create the Spiritual Base.

But because he saw clearly the essence of this technology that creates energy information bodies based on legends and beliefs, but does not involve other phase forces at all, he became more certain about Fang Yuan's identity as an "outsider".

At the same time, he also thought that if this technology could be popularized, it would also be a means of mass-producing high-end extraordinary combat power, and it would be more stable, more reliable, and easier to implant control than the superpower system he created.

"It seems that this outsider cannot be pushed to the enemy!" PS: The third update is here')331'\u003eChapter 330 Flanda, who rolls over every day...

"Defended it..." Shokuhou Misaki saw that her unexpected attack was defended by the opponent. Although she felt a little sorry, her goal had been achieved-with the help of the gap when Mai Ye Shenli returned to defend herself, she had closed the distance close enough! Mai Ye Shenli also saw this clearly.

"Not good!" Seeing that she had been pulled into the opponent's attack range, Mai Ye Shenli's heart sank. This was really not good! "Don't worry, I won't kill you, but... I have no psychological barriers to cutting off a few of your limbs!" As she said this, Shokuhou Misaki shook her gun and stabbed at Maito Chenli's limbs without mercy. It seemed that she would cut her into a human stick in the next moment.

"Mugi-no--!!!" A scream came from afar, and then a rag doll with flames fell right between Shokuhou Misaki and Mugi-no Shiori, and exploded the moment it landed.

Boom--! A huge air wave hit the two people who were close at hand.

For Shokuhou Misaki, who had a spiritual foundation, this level of explosion was just a small firework. She didn't even need to defend herself. Her strong body that had surpassed the level of mortals could directly withstand it without any damage.

However, out of caution, Shokuhou Misaki still took a step back and avoided the air wave and smoke produced by the explosion-after all, she didn't know if there were other ingredients in the bomb.

However, this also made her lose the opportunity to take down Mugi-no Shiori directly.

As for the other side, Mugi-no Shiori was blown away by the shock wave in the first time, rolling on the ground several times, covered with dust and black ash, and her beautiful clothes were tattered, looking very embarrassed.

However, surprisingly, although he was hit by an explosion so close to him, Mai Ye Shen Li seemed to have no injuries except that he was a little dizzy due to the shock! 　　"Oh? This explosion... is it a special bomb!" 　　Seeing this scene, Shokuhou Misaki immediately understood that the explosion just now was actually launched by another member of Item to rescue Mai Ye Shen Li. Although it looks powerful, in fact, apart from the air wave that can blow people away, the real lethality is not that great.
