A clear female voice sounded in the vast underground testing ground, followed by a "bang" gunshot. Saten Ruiko held a gun tightly in both hands, which was obviously different from the models commonly used by humans today.
The twenty-centimeter silver-white strange gun, accompanied by the recoil when the gun was fired, immediately made the girl who was not very strong take several steps back, and the seventeen targets in front of her simultaneously exploded into debris all over the sky.
.
"One bullet locked onto and destroyed seventeen targets at the same time. The rating is rated as medium."
Weijia blinked at the side, recorded the data just now and said.
"You can take a rest."
"call……"
Saten Ruiko let out a long breath, then put down the big gun, which was obviously too heavy for her, and walked back slowly, shaking her sore hands.
"It's going well today," I patted the other person's shoulder encouragingly, "I've just mastered this skill. I didn't expect it to be able to reach the intermediate level."
Although she is only human and cannot use most of Storm Commander's advanced skills, Saten Ruiko's talent in these general skills really amazed Sivis after hearing about it.
"But the physique still needs to be strengthened," Vega followed behind, holding the long silver-white "pistol" that Saten Ruiko had just used. "The Deadwood-Thorn dual pistols are already the lightest type.
You have a gun, half of your abilities are related to shooting, and now you still have to hold a gun with two hands, which is really outrageous."
"It's okay," Saten Ruiko smiled sheepishly, and then scratched her hair, "I'm still a little scared about those genetically enhanced things... I just always feel a little weird, these are really okay
Is it called a superpower? Although it is not an ability that belongs to ordinary people, but with so many weird skills, I always feel that it is different from ordinary superpowers."
"That's why I don't let you talk nonsense outside," Lin Xue was still wearing the white robe of a researcher, even though this girl usually just caused trouble for those unlucky scientists, "having such an abnormal talent does not mean
It’s not a good thing, it will bring you all kinds of troubles, and you are a smart kid, and you must have realized that many of the things we study should be kept top secret, so just keep it a secret."
"Ah, haha, that's it..." Saten Ruiko smiled unnaturally. Since she didn't hide much in the first place, after the past few days of contact, she also discovered that we are quite different from each other.
For ordinary people, although they have always explained that the projects carried out by the institute are highly confidential, so civilians will find them magical, but Saten Ruiko is not stupid, of course she knows that she has probably got involved with some very important people.
, naturally there was a little panic at the beginning, but now...
"Fortunately, you are all good people, so even if I feel that I am involved in something terrible, I won't worry about you harming me."
That's it, everyone in the entire Xiling Research Institute has been issued a good person card...
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Uiharu and Shirai coming over in the past few days. Even Misaka Mikoto comes over often."
"Ah, that's because the work of the Disciplinary Committee member is very busy, so it is difficult to enjoy the leisure time of civilians," Saten Ruiko said, with a little bit of envy on her face. It seemed that she was interested in the "Discipline Committee member".
"This sounds like a very powerful career and I am quite aspirational," "By the way, brother director, when I was at school yesterday, the teacher mentioned my name and said that I was promoted from level 0 to level 3. This is quite amazing.
things, so I want everyone to follow my example..."
Seeing Saten Ruiko's happy smile, my mood also improved. This innocent girl didn't know how to hide her feelings at all.
Um, by the way, I ignored Lin Xue beside me, "Congratulations on getting another sister" and the other side's Qian Qian's obviously unkind gaze.
"By the way, Ajun, come with me to the street to buy some things later."
Just as he was about to leave the testing site, Qian Qian suddenly spoke.
"shopping?"
I was surprised. In fact, because I had been tormented by all kinds of strange thoughts in the past few days, it was quite surprising that she suddenly told me such a normal thing - what if this girl proposed to talk to me?
Maybe it would be easier for people to accept that I go out on the streets together to catch little monsters.
"Just buying - stuff - stuff!!!" Qian Qian said word by word, with a strange look on her face, "Why is your expression so exaggerated, Jun?"
"It's okay, I just don't know if you will want to open a few stores on a whim when you are shopping, so I have reservations about it."
"Hey, Arjun, you have a great idea. Where is Pandora?"
You shouldn't take it seriously at all, baby!
I have been in Academy City for nearly a month, and I feel very familiar with everything around me. Now when I go out for a walk, I can’t find the freshness that I had at the beginning, as if I was just somewhere in another place.
We are just living in the city temporarily. Except when we look up and see the airship with the huge display screen and the wind turbine rotating not far away, we will think that this is a different world. It really doesn't feel like we have traveled through time at all.
Of course, it also has something to do with the fact that this place is too close to the earth.
"Arjun Arjun! Look at this!"
Qian Qian was full of energy and flowed between the shop windows in the shopping street. The energy in her body was as powerful as an eight-cylinder engine. I don't understand how this girl has so much inexhaustible physical strength.
?
"Coming, coming..." I agreed and followed, "Qianqian, please be quieter, this rate of turning around is too high..."
As mentioned above, Qian Qian has a very high rate of turning heads, not to mention Qian Qian's own appearance, just because of her energetic appearance running around, she should be regarded as the focus, right?
"Um?"
Occasionally, I turned my head and noticed a very familiar figure reflected in the glass showcase next to me. However, when I looked back, I found that there was only a bustling flow of people.
"What's wrong, Arjun? Did you see anything?"
Qian Qian came over curiously and followed my line of sight to search for enemies at high speed. Thank God, no bikini beauty or the like appeared in that place and caused me unreasonable disaster.
"It's okay, maybe I saw it wrong."
I shook my head, and then I held the overly energetic Qian Qian in my arms, at least this could make this girl calm down.
"Ah, Arjun, I think I saw this on TV yesterday!"
"Ajun, over there, let's go and take a look, there are so many people!"
"Wow! Arjun Arjun, it turns out that the place I mentioned a few days ago is right here..."
I take back what I just said...
Well, anyway, such an excess of energy is what makes Qian Qian so cute. Seeing this girl jumping around happily can be regarded as a kind of enjoyment in life. Every male compatriot who goes shopping with his girlfriend is like
Only with such awareness can we save the world, right?
All kinds of thoughts to divert attention ran through my mind, but that familiar figure flashed across the corner of my eye again.
"Misaka?"
"Huh? Arjun, what did you just say?"
Qian Qian tilted her head and asked curiously.
"Is it Misaka Mikoto who passed by just now?"
"Just now?" Qian Qian pointed her lips with her finger, and then smiled evilly, "The sands of time come back again and again..."
The surrounding scenery quickly retreated, like a movie shot played backwards, reset to one minute ago.
Hey! Is it really okay to go back in time for such a trivial matter?
"It's really Misaka!"
Even though I secretly criticized Qianqian's wasteful way of using her abilities, I still successfully located the hurried figure in the crowd. Although I couldn't see the front, but judging from the back, it was indeed Misaka.
However, after just a flash, Misaka Mikoto disappeared into the crowd again, without even responding to our loud greetings from behind.
It's strange, what is she doing in such a hurry.
However, since the distance is still quite far, there is no need to cross the layers of human walls to say hello. Then Qianqian and I continued our shopping journey - at least for me, this
It is indeed a journey, and based on Qian Qian's current level of vitality, at least this long march will not be able to stop in a short period of time.
But maybe that bastard God of Destiny really couldn't see that I could spend the day so peacefully. Just when I thought that today's time would slowly pass away while shopping with Qianqian, I suddenly got together with someone.
Met an acquaintance.
Misaka Mikoto, let me tell you, I saw her wandering around this neighborhood a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet her outside a pastry shop.
When we passed by, a brown-haired girl was lying on a shop window along the street, observing something inside with great concentration. She didn't even notice that someone was approaching. Following her line of sight,
Unsurprisingly, it was a frog pendant - placed next to a huge birthday cake, which seemed to be a gift from that thing.
What a cruel obsession. Seeing Misaka Mikoto almost drooling, I put my hand on my forehead and sighed silently.
"Misaka, what are you looking at here?"
After hesitating for a while, I finally chose to say hello.
"Wow!"
A rather exaggerated reaction, like a kitten jumping up at the sudden sound. Misaka Mikoto almost drifted away laterally. After taking a defensive posture and observing closely, this person was immersed in Gutai's seductive aura.
The girl, whose nerves had become numb, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, it turns out it's the director uncle...ah, it hurts!"
"You have to call the director brother!"
Misaka Mikoto, who is respectfully called Sister Gun by countless otakus, is called uncle. This is such a desperate thing. Only in this aspect, I will never back down, bastard!
"Oh," Misaka Mikoto mumbled subtly, flashing my title, and then happily greeted Qianqian, "Sister Qianqian, you are here too."
Why can this sister scream so happily! In terms of age, brother-in-law and uncle should be creatures on two levels, right!?
"Were you looking at the cake here just now?"
Qian Qian cleverly avoided the frog gift under the cake, but pointed pointedly at the huge birthday cake next to it.
"Ah... no... I just think this store... well, the window display is very beautiful haha... ahaha..." Misaka Mikoto laughed suspiciously, but the blush on her face became more and more obvious.
The high-temperature steam that appeared on Pandora's little head seemed to have the intention of appearing on top of Misaka Mikoto's head. Such a reaction... is too stupid?
"If you like it, you can buy it." I twitched my lips. I didn't understand Mikoto's thought process at all. She obviously wanted it so much, but she was lying next to the window drooling for a long time. As a long-term lady, at least you can
You should also act like a young lady! Spending a lot of money to buy an entire Western pastry shop just for a pendant should be the behavior of a young lady, right? If that girl Lin Xue... Well, maybe that's the case, if that girl
If she can act like a young lady, she won't go crazy with us all day long.
"I...I don't want it. How can any girl like that kind of frog or something?"
Hey hey hey, I mean the cake, your automatic brain augmentation is so awesome!
"By the way, Misaka, why were you running in a panic just now? I called you several times from behind and didn't hear you."
Weiwei sighed at the stupid reaction of this guy who didn't mean what he said. I suddenly remembered the panic I saw on the street corner just now, and then I said it casually.
"Just now?" Misaka Mikoto repeated in confusion, with question marks on her face.
"It's over there," I pointed to the street in the distance, "didn't you run over there?"
"No, I've been watching here..." Misaka Mikoto shook her head, but in the middle of her words, she suddenly froze on the spot, and then the fake smile that had been on her face was instantly shattered, replaced by a hard-pressed
The sadness in my heart suddenly surged out, and I was at a loss, "Hug... I'm sorry, I'm a little uncomfortable..."
"etc!"
I grabbed the girl who turned around and tried to run away, and a suspicion quickly formed in my mind.
"What's wrong, Misaka? You look very bad."
"It's okay..." Misaka Mikoto struggled in vain, then shook her head palely. It seems that the thing I suddenly mentioned just now finally made her self-narcosis lose its effect. What does she want to do now? Escape, escape to what
Where to go and sob alone?
"Hasn't that bastard's experiment stopped yet?"
There was no room for reversal, I suddenly whispered.
Feeling that the girl in her hand suddenly stopped struggling, and then trembled slightly, Misaka Mikoto raised her head in disbelief, with undisguised panic in her eyes.
"You...what are you talking about? Some kind of experiment..."
"Silly girl," Qianqian shook her head helplessly, "Miss Misaka, twenty thousand military mass-produced clones, who do you think we are?"
It was that plan, by having the strongest ability user "Accelerator" continuously kill Misaka Mikoto's clone sister to achieve a breakthrough in her ability level, thereby creating the strongest being at level 6. Such an inhumane plan.
The pale girl in front of her, Misaka Mikoto, can be said to be one of the cornerstones of the plan and the biggest victim of the entire plan. She provided her DNA sample because she believed the lie "to save people who are terminally ill".
But it led to the birth of 20,000 clone sisters. The original purpose of all this may have been just to try whether artificial level 5 superpowers could be copied. However, after such an attempt failed, everything took an incredible turn.
, the flesh-and-blood clones were targeted for killing in order to upgrade a certain level 5, and the sister of 20,000 sisters, Misaka Mikoto, fell into the deepest despair.
But what I want to say now is that it seems that this is not the worst case scenario...
"Misaka, listen, first of all, our identity is not as simple as you think, so we are also one of the insiders of this inhumane experiment. But at the beginning, I thought that everything had been terminated, but I didn't expect...
…”
"Termination?" Misaka Mikoto repeated blankly, "Who will terminate it? Who can resist the power of Academy City? With my mere power..."
"Ajun, we'd better change places." Qianqian suddenly tugged on my sleeve, signaling me to pay attention to the passers-by who were gradually attracted to me.
I found that more and more people were attracted to us, and from time to time someone pointed out from a distance the "family of three" who seemed to be in trouble. I immediately pulled Misaka Mikoto and turned into an alley.
Thank God, the author finally knows how to arrange an alley for us that is everywhere and can be hidden at any time...
Misaka Mikoto has never mentioned that plan to anyone. Although she has longed for someone to rescue her in deserted corners countless times, she knows how dangerous it is to confront the dark side of Academy City.
, this girl who is a little too kind can only choose to face everything alone, because she does not want her important people to be involved in danger, but now the situation seems to have changed. That mysterious research institute may really
What about having energy that you don’t know you have?
Although it was just a vague hope, Misaka Mikoto, who was already on the verge of reaching her limit, seemed to suddenly see the light and finally let go of the barrier of self-protection.
"I didn't expect that I would eventually ask for help from another research institution." After telling everything, Misaka Mikoto seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief, leaning her head against the high concrete wall, "But that's it.
"Although you are one of the few research institutions in this city that I feel very friendly to, but if you want to stop the plan that is protected by the dark side of Academy City..."
But I didn't wait for her to finish, but turned my head: "Qianqian, are the arrangements going on?"
Time was running out, and Qianqian and I had already started arranging our actions as early as when it was confirmed that the plan was still in progress.
"Pandora has been notified to take over Academy City's surveillance system and is trying its best to find the location of Misaka sister. Where are Vega and her soldiers?"
"The preparations have been completed...wait a minute, why is Huesca's connection disconnected?"
