Steele, Ruiko Saten, Tori Uiharu, Laura Stewart, Mikoto Misaka, Kaori Kanzaki, Kuroko Shirai (pronounced: biantai), and even Misaka and Lolita Ikata picked up on the way.
...This group of people who are also from the forbidden world but have nothing to do with each other can actually bring me together. When they stood in a row in front of me, I suddenly felt that I was extremely powerful.
Sign yourself first.
It seems that Sandora's guess was right. She told me a long time ago that although the date for special guests from all worlds to come to Shadow City is one week later, except for a few worlds that cannot be brought forward, all vassals
There is definitely no representative of the race who is willing to lag behind others. They will definitely arrive one after another in advance. Look at it now. The happy leaders of Azeroth skipped work the next day and came to my house one by one. They also played WOW and the Forbidden World for a whole day.
This group has also arrived. I heard that the transmission signal from the direction of the world of Vidis has just been received: Those leaders of the forces are all action types. In front of such a grand event as the Carnival of All Realms, their enthusiasm is really high.
ah.
Misaka Mikoto and several other junior high school students from Academy City are certainly not power leaders, but their current status is special representatives of the science side of the forbidden world. Everyone knows that the former ruler of Academy City has now changed his name to
Aresta? The Skeleton Walker, an undead creature who has completely become a slave. With the instruction and support of the Empire's Supreme Command, the Hanged Man has purged all the top management of Academy City. Now the scientific side of the forbidden world
Their independence is in name only. It can even be said that they are the only affiliated force whose internal affairs are completely controlled by the empire. In this way, it is easy to explain that several female middle school students have become special representatives...
The unlucky Hanged Man, his authority in the imperial military system is not even comparable to that of Ruizi. The latter is a general in the imperial establishment. I guess my vitality is second only to Qianqian’s cheap sister.
It took less than two sentences to assign such identities to my friends: they didn't even use invitations.
"Wow, it seems to be a bit festive already!"
Walking on the street, looking at the obviously more visitors from different worlds than usual, Leizi exclaimed in surprise, "Usually there are not so many people from other worlds in Shadow City."
As soon as he heard it, he knew that a certain black man often skipped school to play in Shadow City.
"It doesn't matter whether Saten-san goes to class anyway," Uiharu looked at his friend with a look of resentment. The other party's upskirting attack made the flowerpot a little depressed now, "But it's really lively here now. I just said
I also saw a big ball floating past - is that some kind of machine needed during the festival? A guide robot or something like that?"
"Those are the people from the Orb Planet," I casually gave Biberu's race a weird label, "new members of the empire, we just ended a war, and some new races merged into the empire's territory, but you
I haven’t been here for the past two or three months, so I may not know that the place has become lively because of the new members joining: it’s still early for the carnival, and the only people who came in advance were the leaders and special representatives of various forces. They are not enough to let such people
A huge city comes alive."
"War?" The words I casually said suddenly made everyone quiet down. These girls who enjoy a peaceful campus life in school all day are not used to talking about war as a matter of verbal conversation. "Director... uh, brother,
You're not hurt, are you?"
"Huh, don't worry about this perverted big brother," a certain flat-chested girl with double ponytails is still angry about my behavior of carrying her to the flower bed just now. Although there was a moment of imperceptible worry in my eyes just now, this worry immediately disappeared.
She has turned into a vicious tongue. The only good thing is that due to more than one training and education, she finally no longer calls me uncle. "The vitality of perverts is very strong! And he has so many more perverted troops."
"
Hey! I just don’t want to be called a pervert by you!
"Hmm... But even though I have this status, I have never been able to help..." Leizi curled her lips a little disappointed, "But isn't Miss Laura my brother's assistant? Don't you know that too?"
Well, the relationship between Ruizi and Laura is quite familiar. Because they work in the same system, they often communicate with each other. Speaking of which, the originally complicated forces in the forbidden world were mixed up by the empire after the three axes of doomsday.
I suddenly became curious about this issue. At that time, the actions of the Imperial Army in the forbidden world were extremely huge. Faced with the coming doomsday, we did not have time to contact all the various sects and sects in the world.
He was dealt with by Laura, who was "blessed by God", and then used thunderous means to suppress the forces on the scientific side. Finally, God fought against the end of the world. As a result, such unscrupulous actions naturally violently impacted the original power system of that world.
The original major sects declined rapidly because they were deliberately ignored by "angels" in the latest miracle. The English Puritan Church rose rapidly and became the representative force of magic in a short period of time. The two camps of science and magic are used by us.
The fusion was accomplished abruptly with almost violent means. Now it seems that this fusion was first manifested in an Academy City student and the leader of the magic side.
"I have not received a war mobilization order," the forever seventeen-year-old Archbishop showed a troubled smile, "I just suddenly received the news of the end of the war a few days ago. I feel that this time I was completely ignored by our Lord.
It’s really sad.”
"Your grammar problem is even more sad." Steele complained about his immediate boss without hesitation. Next to him, Kanzaki seemed to want to say something, but after finding that he was completely unable to save face for his bishop on this topic,
The young saint wisely chose to keep her mouth shut.
The corner of Laura's mouth twitched obviously, but she still tried hard to act like a good girl in front of me - by the way, this aunt, even if you are seventeen forever, please don't act cute maliciously, okay - she curled her lips rather depressed,
Looking across the street, he said: "It should be a high-end war that a civilization of our level cannot intervene at all. Although I didn't know anything about it before, I observed the situation in Shadow City. There is a certain atmosphere here, a fierce battle."
After that, the atmosphere of peace finally ushered in, and those new races had a 'flavor' that I cared about very much."
The fox girl paused and looked into my eyes: "The smell of blood, the smell of death, the smell of ghosts and gods. I have never seen anything like this. Even when they face their compatriots, they have a different look in their eyes when they look at others.
He always carries the sharpness of a poisonous snake, as if he is always on the battlefield, except of course the big iron ball without a face."
"Hey, no wonder the kid said just now that there are some people with fierce eyes on the street. It turned out to be such a boring reason."
Accelerator, who had been following us silently, looking like he wanted to leave quickly but was dragged forward by Misaka Misaka, spat, with obvious annoyance on his face, "Where did you find these guys?
It’s like you’re always in the state of one second before killing someone.”
I just smiled helplessly, but couldn't explain it clearly.
The Pan-Galactic Civilization Community should be regarded as the most ferocious tribe among the empire's vassal races. They have survived to this day in that cruel universe and have regarded war as a part of their daily life. They are still vigilant even in a peaceful environment.
Everything around them, and thousands of years of confrontation with the imperial rebels, although they did not turn them into a super civilization as powerful as the Xiling apostles, they gradually developed a ferocious soul that could rival the imperial people. This ferocity
This is their biggest advantage as vassals of the empire, but it also has some troubles: members from the pan-galactic civilization community are not very accustomed to the peaceful environment in the empire's ruled areas, and the sharpness in their eyes often makes people who do not understand their kind nature.
misunderstanding.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of this carnival, let all the worlds understand what the civilized community has experienced, and let them know how such a ferocious tribe was born. This is also one of Sandora's plans. We don't want to rule under our own
What kind of estrangement is caused by misunderstanding among all races.
"You should look at the database for yourselves later. The scale of that war was so huge that it is impossible to explain it in just one or two sentences." I tapped the heads of the curious little girls one by one to let them take a good look.
Lu, "Speaking of which, Laura, what kind of things has your world prepared?"
"We have a special situation there." When talking about business, Laura's expression became serious. "Most people don't know that the entire world is already under the control of the empire, so it is a bit troublesome to prepare for the celebration. But don't worry, I won't let you down. We will
Showing the unique symbolism and world culture of our own world, the technological aspects may not have the value to be displayed in the Shadow City, but in terms of mystical attainments, I am confident that we are no worse than those brothers and sisters in the magical world."
I believe that the ferocious symbolic power of religion in the forbidden world is very unreasonable. A well-known historical legend can give ordinary people in the real world incredible powers. This strange phenomenon is very interesting to Tavel.
of.
Laura and her group were different from Misaka and the others who were here just to have fun despite being special representatives. The fox girl came here to do business. After chatting for a while, they started to explore the activities of the magic side of the Forbidden World in the Shadow City.
Say goodbye to us in front of the museum.
"I'm really looking forward to this unprecedented event." Fox Girl bowed slightly to me in front of the hotel. "This is an event worthy of being recorded in the classics. Perhaps after the Old Testament and the New Testament, we will personally compile a new one."
Miracle Record."
"Hey! You can't be serious, can you?!"
Steele choked out his cigarette without pouring it out, "You want to revise the Bible?"
"Isn't it possible? After the end of the world and the emergence of new miracles, the voice of "a new mythological era has arrived" in Christianity is getting louder and louder. Compared with Noah's building of the ark in the flood and our survival in the meteorite rain, the latter
Isn’t it worthy of being included in the miracles? A new era of mythology has begun, and we must announce that the Lord has returned.”
"It's up to you," I shrugged, "I know the habits of your Crusaders. When the time comes, I'll ask Alaya to pluck some feathers and give them to you as holy objects. She has now become a recognized angel of the Crusaders. I will
Let her personally admit the new Bible to the world - that thing should be called a sequel."
Laura's idea may be sensational to Steele, but I have long been used to it: the Bible of the Dingdang sect has been revised four to five hundred times, how can the gods of your cross religion still be as high as Dingdang?
"Thank you very much for your recognition."
Laura immediately showed an expression of surprise. Alaya, a real angel, appeared again and admitted to the world the value of the new Bible in the eyes of God. This would be another unprecedented boost to the British Puritan Church and to this country that values the interests of the Holy See.
For a very serious woman, this is an incredible gift.
"Don't get too excited, it's just that the fanfic has been officially authorized." I am open-minded. From my understanding, it seems that what Laura is going to compile should be a fanfic version of the Bible, right?
Everyone: "..."
After bidding farewell to the Puritan group, we wandered aimlessly in the Shadow City for a while with four little girls who had skipped school to play. We unknowingly arrived at the edge of the military zone.
"Ah, let's go see Sister Sylvia!"
Leizi suddenly remembered something and said with an excited expression.
This proposal was immediately approved by everyone. Although the reaction was a little slow, Sylvia's usual affinity is still unquestionable. She has not had much contact with the Academy City foursome next to me, but we have a good relationship, and I also
I just feel a little busy lately, so it’s a good choice to go to her place to relax and relax: Slow Half Beat has always been defined by me as a brain speed reducer.
"Jingle Bell……"
The crisp crystal wind chime sounded melodiously, and the glass door of Sylvia's Candy House was pushed open from the outside. A group of little girls and I waited patiently at the door for five seconds, and Sylvia's voice finally came through.
: "Ah, a guest is coming!"
...It seems that your reaction is a few microseconds faster than last time? Silver-haired Mole, have you eaten anything to supplement your brain recently?
"Sister Sylvia, are you still so slow?" Ruizi stuck out her tongue cutely, and happily ran up to the silver-haired Shandong Banpai who was walking towards this side from the shelf, and started chatting affectionately.
I looked around. The small candy house was neatly tidied up, and every glass grid used to place desserts was shining with crystal reflections. Although Sylvia was slow, she was really serious about her work.
——The problem of frequent mistakes is limited by IQ and it is difficult to improve.
I immediately saw a rag rolled into a ball in a glass grid on the opposite wall, and next to it there was a candy box hanging on the hook where the rag was supposed to be hung...
"Jingle Bell……"
The crisp wind chime rang again, and I turned my head, but what was surprising was that this time the person who appeared at the door was not a Xiling host or Miss Misaka who came to sell desserts, but...
A girl who dresses like a machine: Ola.
"Eh? Who is she?" Heizi tugged on my arm and asked in a low voice. The visitor's light armor that never left her body and the alloy mask on her face made her feel particularly surprised.
"Ola, my new commander, but I don't know her very well either."
Commander Bee, the leader who suddenly appeared in the candy house, didn't expect me to be here. She was obviously stunned for a moment, and then walked towards this side. At the same time, everyone's ears immediately sounded like "Zizzishasha" like radio interference.
"The noise is a strange phenomenon that occurs when the leader bee suddenly focuses its attention on the target. It seems to be related to their crystal ability.
Shirai Kuroko and Misaka Mikoto, who were standing closest to me, immediately pressed their ears hard. They thought they were hearing hallucinations for a moment, and people who are not used to this kind of electronic noise would definitely not be comfortable. But fortunately, this
This kind of noise disappeared as quickly as it came. When Aura spoke, the voice in her head also disappeared at the same time.
"Salute to you, Your Majesty."
"Well, this is not a military camp, so no need to be polite - what are you doing in the candy house?"
"Daily patrol." The leader bee replied in the same mechanical and stiff way as always. As a senior apostle, but in terms of appearance, he looks as dull as those combat puppets without much intelligence. I can regard this as the cuteness of the machine girl.
Do you want to order?
Leizi and the others have already started chatting with Sylvia. Anyone who is familiar with Sylvia knows that to chat with her, you have to be willing to live. Seeing that a few girls couldn't care less about talking to me for the time being, I simply pulled Aola.
I found a seat by the window in the store and asked her how she was doing.
"Due to long standby time, all the leader bees have malfunctions to varying degrees. Chief Tavel has been helping the soldiers make adjustments recently. Now four-fifths of our soldiers have restored their mission capabilities. After getting familiar with the urban environment and downloading new
After the establishment of the army and the list of duties, we are sufficient to carry out our duties."
"Well, I noticed that the leader bee has appeared in the military department of Shadow City." I nodded, and then looked at Aura's visor with some concern. This leader bee commander has never taken off her mask.
The layer on the face, the metal shell that covers most of the face, is smooth except for the Empire Cross logo and her number. Although I know that this will not affect the vision of a Xiling apostle, looking at a
The girl with a metal shell as her face always feels weird.
"What about that, Aura, I told you not to mind," I looked at the other party hesitantly, "Your leader Bee always wears the visor? Can you take it off and let me see how long you are?
What's it like?"
I swear, I'm just a little curious. If it were you, watching a girl wearing a mask walking around you all day long but never knowing her true face, how could you not be curious?
But with such a simple question, Aura, a female soldier who had always obeyed orders mechanically and unconditionally, suddenly became stiff.
"If this is an order."
After a full ten seconds of hesitation, Aura nodded slowly and put her hand on her visor.
"Hey wait," seeing that something was wrong, I quickly stopped the other party, "Would it be very bad for you to take off this mask?"
Although I don’t know if there are some races among the Xiling Apostles who have some ancient taboos, but judging from Aura’s current reaction, it is obvious that she is not willing to take off the mask. I don’t know the meaning of wearing a steel mask all day long.
, but is this a taboo for bees?
Aura stopped what she was doing and continued to sit there like a robot. She didn't answer my questions and just went into standby mode. The personal feelings that had just flashed in the pan disappeared again: she and Fina were at this point.
It's a perfect match.
The leader bees are really a bunch of weird guys. They seem to be different from the normal Xiling apostles.
