Chapter three hundred and seventy-two the robbed angel
Chapter 372 The kidnapped angel
After two peaceful days, the first batch of Misaka sisters were finally delivered to our research institute.
It was a heavy-duty truck transporting containers. The pass had the words "Research Equipment Transport" written on it. It was delivered from the back door of the institute. The driver didn't even know what he was transporting.
After the "research equipment" was delivered to the destination and we confirmed that we had unloaded the container, we left without saying a word.
"A living person."
My sister sighed sadly, then stepped forward and opened the door of the container.
With the sound of "squeaking" metal hinges, the container was opened from the outside. Sitting facing each other inside were hundreds of people with exactly the same exquisite appearance, uniform specifications of long pantai school uniforms, exactly the same height and weight, and even heads.
The girl who was wearing a night vision device was also stuck in the exact same position. Hundreds of Misaka girls were like dolls assembled from the production line. They were packed into large containers like goods. When the sealed door opened,
All the Misaka sisters neatly turned their gazes to the direction where the bright light came in. Being stared at at the same time by hundreds of puppet-like emotionless eyes, my heart skipped a beat.
Scared...
Under the command of Misaka 10031, more than a hundred Misaka sisters filed out of the container, and then quickly stood in two rows in front of us according to their medical examination numbers.
"Ahem, first of all, welcome to join...well, join our big family."
As usual, it was the unlucky person who was pushed up to give the speech. After thinking about it again and again, I decided to use "family" to describe the relationship between us. As the saying goes, if there are too many lice, there will be no itching, and if there are too many debts, there will be no worries. Now that I have accepted these life experiences
Poor Misaka clones, then they should be treated as their own sisters. Anyway, there are a bunch of girls next to me who are more than ten thousand people - saying ten thousand people is really an exaggeration, you bastard!
Faced with my opening remarks, more than a hundred Misaka sisters showed no reaction at all. They just listened quietly and waited for my next order.
Waiting, accepting orders, executing, and dying have become part of their instincts.
Of course, except for Misaka 10031 who has been living with us for a few days, even though her expression was as blank as the other sisters, Misaka 10031 immediately took the lead in applauding while still expressionlessly
He raised his head and glanced at me: "The Misakas are waiting for orders, otherwise they will not take any action. Misaka 10031 saw that the director brother was a little embarrassed and immediately explained kindly."
I feel even more embarrassed when you explain it this way.
"Well, let's do this for now. You need to get familiar with the environment, and then get used to our biological repair warehouse. Let Misaka 10031 introduce more to you... No more, disband!"
The Misaka sisters immediately changed their formation, and then quietly followed Misaka 10031 and left here.
"It's so stressful to talk to them."
I said after heaving a heartfelt sigh of relief.
Lin Xue spoke next to him: "That's why I let you take advantage of me."
There are more than 10,000 Misaka clones. It is obviously impossible to receive them all at once. To be honest, Aleister even doubted whether our small research institute could accommodate 10,000 at first.
Multiple clones live inside and are not known to the outside world, but I have clearly told him that we can solve this matter ourselves. He only needs to use his own power to send 10,000 Misaka sisters to "Xiji" safely and covertly.
"The Spiritual Research Institute" will do. The more than a hundred people now are just the first batch. In addition to being the first handover attempt, they will also become the experimenters of the latest biological repair warehouse. In the next few days, the remaining Misaka
My sister will be delivered in batches, and then we will transfer her to the shadow city.
This cold world has never given my sisters a shred of warmth. I would rather build a new paradise for them.
Although the current environment of that paradise is a bit strange... I have to tell Paopao that after watching the strange anime, don't play scene simulations with Shadow City again.
"I wonder if that old fox Aleister would be suspicious of the disappearance of more than 10,000 people out of thin air?"
Watching my sisters lining up and disappearing into the underground entrance of the research institute behind Misaka 10031, onee-sama whispered next to me.
"Also, I always feel that the cunning guy's reaction seems a bit strange. Facing the 'foreigners', he doesn't seem to act like a suspicious leader."
"Who knows... hmm? Sister, the energy fluctuation just now..."
"Energy fluctuations?"
Sister-sama blinked curiously, "I didn't feel it?"
illusion?
Seeing my sister's confused look, I also doubted whether I had an illusion, but then, another wave of weak energy fluctuations came again, which confirmed that my feeling was correct.
It seems that the fluctuation is too weak and it is not something onee-sama is familiar with, so am I the only one who noticed it?
"I noticed it too..."
Just as I was thinking this, Lin Xue said quietly beside me, almost forgetting that in addition to my ability to perceive abnormal energy at a very far distance, there is also a girl who can be called a cheating device.
The Prophet is also a beyond-visual-range radar.
"It's the smell of magic in this world. It's not very far from here."
Lin Xue glanced at me with curiosity on her face: "Oh? Is this the magic of this world? It's a really strange way of energy running. There is no spiritual power involved at all. It's the kind of idol worship you said.
Or the way myths and legends give power to promote the operation of magical elements, wood, do you want to take a look?"
Near the pedestrian street of the 7th School District, in a deserted alley, the ground was covered with a charred black color, and the walls were also covered with criss-cross traces of high-temperature barbecues. There were several burnt substances on the ground that were still slowly burning.
There was green smoke and a pungent burnt smell. It was obvious that this place had just experienced a momentary high temperature.
Although the remaining magic power fluctuations are quite weak, you can still tell that it is the work of magicians.
And one of them is quite familiar.
"Is Steele's magic power still there?" After closing my eyes for a while, I could easily identify the unique magic fluctuations of an old smoker who could send out the smell of cigarettes for thirty miles into the wind. "
It seems that his opponent pays great attention to concealing his whereabouts. A certain spell that can greatly limit the spread of magic fluctuations is always running in this alley. Otherwise, with the strength of Bishop Steele, the battle will be more than this.
There’s movement.”
"Is anyone hurt?"
Qian Qian said to me with a frown while fanning the pungent smell in front of her nose with her hand.
"Your husband is a radar, not a GM, okay?"
Lin Xue never made a sound. She just closed her eyes, sensing something in the air, and then said with certainty: "No one was injured. The two just made tentative contact. The red-haired priest was chasing someone."
Target, but the opponent has no intention of fighting."
"You can now see what happened in the past? Are your talents activated?"
Noticing the silver-white halo flowing in Lin Xue's eyes, I couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Do you dare to distort your way of thinking any more?" Lin Xue looked embarrassed and said while twitching the corners of his mouth, "In addition, seeing what happened in a place in the past is one of my abilities.
One, isn’t this much simpler than the ability to predict?”
"Okay, okay, my Lord Prophet, did you see who Steele was chasing just now? And where are they now?"
"Wait a minute," Lin Xue said, closing her eyes again, opening her eyes after a few seconds and shaking her head, "We cannot accurately detect targets we have not seen before. The resolution of the image is too low.
"
"Well... it should be someone from the Roman Orthodox Church... who is there?"
Qian Qian and Lin Xue turned around as I finished speaking, and then they saw the figure exiting the alley. They couldn't help shouting in surprise: "Kanzaki Kaori?"
"Angels?"
The young saint, who seemed to be in a hurry, obviously didn't expect us to appear here, and she also exclaimed.
Kanzaki's arrival finally put an end to our unhelpful speculation. From the other party's words, I roughly understood what happened.
The person Steele was chasing was indeed a member of the Roman Orthodox Church.
"You fight directly as soon as you meet? Are all your Necessary Evil Churches such mindless single cells?"
After listening to Kanzaki's narration, I couldn't help but sigh helplessly. I didn't even figure out what the other party was going to do, but we actually handed him over as soon as we met, and now let him run away. The Church of Necessary Evil is indeed worthy of being called the "Church of Necessary Evil"
The largest violent organization in British Puritanism...
"I'm very sorry, Lord Angel, but the situation at that time may have been very urgent. Steele only sent me a magic communication and launched an attack before I even arrived. He would not be so impulsive normally..."
"Okay, okay, I know, I know, that old smoker is a calm and wise good young man. I have already informed my people to follow him. So, have you found anything in the past few days? What are the Roman Orthodox people doing here?
What plane is it?”
When it came to business, Kanzaki's expression immediately became serious: "They may have discovered clues about the lost angel, and they seem to be planning to use the power of that angel to deal with Academy City... No, it may be the entire science side.
"
Qianqian and I looked at each other and said in unison: "They are full!"
"I just don't understand why the Roman Orthodox Church targets science so much. Do they really think that science can be eliminated from the world once it sprouts?"
"The opposition between science and religion has existed from the beginning," Kanzaki shook her head. Although as a member of the magic side, her judgment was much more impressive than that of many religious people. "Religion has shaped the people's
A lofty idol, grazing the souls of believers with absolute faith, but the emergence of science has broken all this. In the eyes of science, everything that religion insists on has been mercilessly denied, and even arrogantly tried to use it as a mortal.
This is of course something that cannot be tolerated by religion. However, despite the deep roots and powerful power of religious forces, science can be integrated into ordinary people at the fastest speed and in the most convenient way. Until now, although the Roman Orthodox Church is known as
There are two billion believers, but these two billion believers also enjoy the convenience brought by science. It can be said that the foundation of the religious world has long been crumbling under the impact of the power of science. The actions of the Roman Orthodox Church can be said to be for the sake of faith.
Fighting, but it’s okay to describe it as self-saving... Of course, for crazy believers, reasons should be meaningless in the first place, right?”
Looking at Kanzaki Kaori in full philosopher mode, I sincerely sighed: "I think you should be an undercover agent on the science side."
Kanzaki: "...I was just affected by the conversation I had with you, Lord Angel, a few days ago."
At this moment, the Xiling agent team I sent out to track down any suspicious targets finally sent a reply. A certain Xiling soldier discovered traces of Steele near the edge of Academy City.
On a concrete floor that had been smashed by some force, the red-haired priest had fallen unconscious and fell to the ground. Cardboard pieces with runes were scattered on the ground. Apart from the broken cement blocks on the ground, there was no high temperature around him.
Burn marks.
In other words, Stiyl was instantly killed by the opponent before he even had time to attack.
"Steele!"
Seeing his partner lying on the ground with unknown life or death, Kanzaki immediately rushed forward and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the other person's life was not in danger.
"Avoiding the vital points and just losing consciousness, this old smoker is really lucky." Lin Xue checked the opponent's injuries very professionally, "But at least six bones were broken and there was severe internal bleeding.
——Wood, open the barrier, and release Alaya."
Why do I feel like you just put Angel Sister in a very subtle position?
No matter how strange Lin Xue's statement was, I immediately activated the energy barrier to interfere with any possible prying eyes, and then released the angel sister.
Under the impact of the holy light energy, even the dead can be resurrected, and Steele naturally recovered quickly, while Kanzaki next to her had a strange look in her eyes: this was the first time she had seen this angel actually take action, and interact with her predecessor.
The feeling of simply being intimidated by the power of the holy light was different from the past few times. This time, what she felt from this adult was the peaceful and peaceful power that should truly belong to the kingdom of heaven. Under the influence of the holy and soft white light, Steele
The scarred body quickly recovered to health at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the blood stains and tattered clothes on his body were miraculously repaired.
Alaya even cured this old smoker's pneumonia... You did unnecessary things, idiot!
"Steele, how are you?"
When the red-haired priest woke up, Kanzaki immediately took a step forward, helped him up and asked.
"Damn it, they were attacked..." Steele's first words after waking up explained the reason for his unlucky situation, "They dared to do such an outrageous thing in Academy City. It was beyond my expectation.
"
I conveniently stuffed Alaya, who was busy counting his feathers, back into the spiritual sea, and asked, "What is going on? What are the Roman Orthodox people doing?"
"They took away the angel."
Steele said surprisingly.
"Okay, how many days in advance did you come in, and now you are overtaken by the Roman Orthodox Church who was late in realizing it?"
"I'm very sorry, Angel-sama." Faced with my complaints, Kanzaki and Steele immediately bowed their heads and apologized, "We are incompetent..."
"Forget it," I certainly couldn't reprimand the two magicians so confidently with the false name of "angel", "Unless Aleister has a brain attack, the Roman Orthodox people probably haven't left Academy City yet.
, Steele, describe the characteristics of the other party to us, maybe my people can find them."
"Well," Steele nodded, "The guy I found was a woman. She was wearing traditional white monastic clothes. She was good at unknown spells. She had been running away. The one who ambushed and attacked me was a tall blond man.
Wearing a very gorgeous white monastic uniform, the technique he uses is to use the air to generate a huge hammer to attack. It is very fast and powerful. I don’t know more..."
I flashed the image of the two people described by Steele in my mind for a long time. After searching to no avail, I asked: "Where is the angel? Have you seen it?"
"Yes," Steele took out the cigarette as usual, and lit it with a ball of sparks from his fingers. "The woman was taking him with her, a young girl with silver hair, but her condition was quite strange.
She was just like a frightened ordinary person. She didn't look like an angel at all. She couldn't even feel the slightest bit of power from her body. Even the nun in white robe didn't show the slightest respect to her. By the way, that
The angel definitely fits what you said about being lost - her reaction seems to be slower than that of ordinary people..."
"Silver-haired girl?"
Let me look at Lin Xue.
"Ordinary people with no power at all?"
Lin Xue also cast her thoughtful gaze here.
Then we all said in unison: “And it’s still half a beat!?”
"Uh... yes," Steele said hesitantly, scanning our curious eyes, "Is that the angel?"
"I didn't expect..." I was about to say a certain name, and then suddenly realized that the two people in front of me were being deceived, so I immediately changed my words, "I didn't expect that guy to be such an idiot... Well, it's her,
We will seize the time to find her, Steele, please take a rest first. Although the Holy Light can repair your body, your vitality needs to be rested to recover."
"Well," even though he was reluctant, Steele still had to nod in agreement with me, "Then I will return to our base to rest first, Kanzaki you..."
"I will continue to track them." Kanzaki said with a firm tone.
"Then let's split up into two groups. They shouldn't be far away," I said, handing a small crystal to Kanzaki. "If you find the other party's traces, smash it. We'll arrive immediately."
Kanzaki nodded, took the crystal and quickly left the place.
After Steele also left, Lin Xue and I let out a long sigh at the same time, while Qian Qian sighed: "I didn't expect that the angel was actually Sylvia - I missed it, I missed it..."
