Lin Luo returned to the Sky City from the Magic Cannon World in the blink of an eye. Although it was not the first time he rode the Avenue of Stars, after the previous sudden change, he said goodbye to the three giants of Magic Cannon at once.
Returning to his own world still gave him an unreal feeling... But now that he was back, things there had to be put aside for the time being. After all, this city in the sky had to be taken care of.
"Huh?" Standing in the atrium, Lin Luo looked around. He originally thought that after the last invasion of thousands of people, the City in the Sky would be completely damaged, but now it seems that except for the forest and mountains below, he can see a little bit.
Except for a trace of gunpowder smoke, the City in the Sky was intact. It seemed that the defense battle was much more beautiful than he imagined... and it was definitely more difficult.
Just as he imagined, he didn't see anyone outside. They were probably all resting in the main hall.
Lin Luo stood outside for a while, just looking at the surrounding scenery calmly. After a while, he smiled slightly, turned around and walked towards the main hall, but as soon as he stepped out, a sense of alert suddenly rose in his heart, which made him instinctively
Exit tens of meters backward.
At the same time, he saw the place where he was standing explode violently, with rubble flying... Only the strong men above the ground level could blow up the buildings of the Sky City in an instant.
Lin Luo was startled, and immediately looked up, only to see a young woman with brown hair standing not far across the way, her body covered with electric light. The palm of her right hand was slightly open, pointing at the place where the previous explosion occurred.
"Mikoto?" Lin Luo was stunned and looked at the girl in front of him with confusion. It was Misaka Mikoto.
"What a timid move, you actually dodged my blow." An intriguing smile flashed in his eyes, and he raised his fingers to lightly brush the bangs in front of his forehead. He was always so confident and confident, the young girl.
This action has undoubtedly become her trademark.
Bilibili
Listening to this long-missed voice, Lin Luo couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but he still couldn't help complaining, "What are you doing? I thought there were some enemies." If he hadn't seen the young girl in front of him, he would have
One would really suspect that the Sky City was captured by someone, which is why such a sudden attack was launched.
"Huh? How dare you complain?" But for some reason, Lin Luo's words seemed to ignite the young woman's anger. The flashes of electricity became more intense. She bit her silver teeth and crushed the gun in her hand.
Current, said in a willful and arrogant manner, "Then let's have a fight so that you can't say anything."
Lin Luo was speechless. After nearly half a year, he finally returned to the City in the Sky. It was fine not to welcome him warmly, but he even started to fight with him. "Hey, hey, hey, don't bring this to me, I just came back..."
Well"
He thought Mikoto was just in a tsundere state, and was about to comfort her, but before he could finish his words, he found that Mikoto was no longer on the opposite side.
"Here it is"
The voice came from his ears, and Lin Luo saw a faint electric light flashing in front of his eyes. He knew that Mikoto had come forward. Before thinking, his body reacted instinctively, activated the teleportation, and retreated to the sky in an instant.
edge of town, but
"Too slow."
The girl's voice followed him closely like a shadow, which made Lin Luo's face change. At the same time, he felt a huge force hitting his chest, which even with his current physique was a bit unbearable.
He felt a twinge of pain in his abdomen, and then his whole body flew backwards like a cannonball. He was only standing in mid-air after flying hundreds of meters away.
Looking down, he saw that a big hole had been made in the clothes on his chest, and there was a clear fist mark on his bare skin. The mark did not disappear, but the pain never dissipated, making him frown in pain.
This guy... is serious
Lin Luo was shocked and confused at the same time. He looked at the young girl opposite and saw that Mikoto was also looking at him, but the expression on her face seemed to be very angry.
"Have you seen my strength?"
"Huh?" Hearing this, Lin Luo was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Mikoto was a competitive person. When she was in Academy City, she often fought with those bad boys, although she could not pass it.
She could even hurt people's lives, but sometimes she would act without discretion. Even if the entire school district suffered a power outage, it would not be a strange thing. So in general, she is a person who both yearns for peace and likes to fight.
"Do you want to spar with me?" After thinking about this, Lin Luo suddenly understood. He had seen it before in the Magic Cannon World when the Book of Contract could be used normally. Mikoto had also reached the same heart-meld state as Hatsune.
Realm, and the overall strength is so strong that he is at the same level as the mid-level earth class. So, with her character, it doesn't seem strange that she wants to fight with him.
"Let's compare your strengths." But Lin Luo obviously had the wrong idea. Meiqin stared, then pointed at Lin Luo and said bitterly, "I'm teaching you a lesson to let you know that I...we are not the kind of people who need protection."
"people"
"Um...what are you talking about?" Lin Luo felt that his head was a little awkward.
"Don't act crazy for me," Meiqin shouted, then her face gradually calmed down, she stared at Lin Luo, and said as she walked towards, "What were you thinking about the last time I talked to you on the phone?"
Last time?
Lin Luo clearly remembered that the last time she talked to Mikoto was during the Three Kings War. Although she didn't know how Mikoto did it, it was precisely because of her words that she was able to cheer up and fight wholeheartedly.
What I was thinking at that time...
"Have you lost the will to fight?" Meiqin's eyes were calmer than ever before, as if she could see through Lin Luo, and said in a deep voice, "Because this world is facing the danger of destruction and is invaded by countless powerful enemies, so you
You think that we who are sheltered under your wings have no possibility of victory, so you can't see hope and are desperate, and then you have lost the will to fight, right?"
"This..." Lin Luo was speechless. He finally knew why Mikoto was angry. Although he did not lose his will to fight at that time, he was really in a state of despair for a while, and most of his mind was focused on the Castle in the Sky.
With the safety of everyone at stake, we simply cannot fight with all our strength.
But he didn't know why his mood at that time was known to Mikoto.
At this time, Mikoto also gave the answer, "Call across worlds is actually an advanced stage of telephony. Although that ability cannot be improved on the surface, as long as I achieve heart fusion, I can use it across worlds.
Of course, telepathy has great limitations, but when it is used, our spiritual chains are connected, so I can know your state of mind at that time, which you should also know."
That's right, although you can't know what the other person is thinking specifically when using telepathy, the expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy are still easy to convey.
"Did you know? When I was in Academy City, I found out that you tried your best to stop the experiments of your sisters. Although you kept it from me, it made me very angry..." Before Lin Luo could answer, Mikoto continued, "But I
I was more happy. At that time, I thought you were my hero. As long as I shouted in my heart, you would definitely be able to rush to my side and help me. Until now, I still think so, but "
Speaking of this, Mikoto's eyes flashed, "I am not the kind of person who is willing to be protected, and neither are you. See? This city in the sky and this world have protected me, everyone, and this place with our own strength.
Everyone in the world is working hard, moving forward, and becoming stronger. We are not standing behind you, but standing on the same horizon as you. We... are not the ones being protected."
"..." Lin Luo lost her voice again.
"I still remember that when I was bound by my own guilt, it was you who came to my spiritual world and pulled me out. That's what you said to me at that time... This time you are not alone.
, let’s start over again together”
Lin Luo couldn't help but be stunned. It was a very distant memory, but it was also a memory that could not be forgotten no matter what. It was precisely because of that time that he and the girl in front of him truly came together.
"Because of those words, I had the courage to face up to my mistakes, and it also made me understand that I was not alone in fighting the darkness of Academy City. There was someone I could rely on, someone who could fight with me. That was really a blessing.
It’s a very happy thing, but that doesn’t mean we need to be protected.”
"Maintaining oneself and maintaining self-respect is the independent personality of everyone. People who can only rely on others think that they can't do anything. When others think that they can't survive without their protection, that person can't even
Why don’t you believe more when your dignity is gone? Why don’t you have hope for us? I believe that we can see hope even when we are desperate, and we can become heroes who protect everything.”
"Mikoto..."
"Please wake up to me. I won't show mercy now. I will use all my strength to defeat you. Just let your body remember that we... don't need to be protected."
Swish
As soon as the young lady finished speaking, her person disappeared from the spot. Almost at the same time, he appeared behind Lin Luo and punched out, causing the sky to crack and the sound wave to absorb the soul.
Even Lin Luo changed his color after such an attack. The whistling punch was like a roar in the face of thousands of rivers and mountains, giving him an irresistible feeling in his heart... This was not an ordinary fight, not an ordinary sparring.
This is a real battle, and it is also a battle where Mikoto tries her best to prove herself.
Lin Luo couldn't ignore this realization and said seriously: "I will use my full strength, no problem."
Mikoto smiled proudly, and as she waved her hand, endless thunder fell from the sky, "Of course, if you dare to be merciful, think about your will and inheritance distribution first."
ps: Sure enough, talking and killing is the best thing for me.
