Chapter 170 Experimental Battle
"I'm just... a magical boy passing by."

Mu Xiu tilted his head and looked at the slender young man with bleached white hair in front of him, and said this slowly after a long time.

"What?" Accelerator was puzzled at first, and then became even more dissatisfied. He turned his head and looked around, trying to find the experimenter he was familiar with, to see what explanation he had.Could it be that today's experiment was cancelled, why no one came to tell me?
Also, who is this inexplicable guy in front of him?

The white-haired boy didn't think the other party was an enemy, nor did he think that the other party was threatening, so although he was dissatisfied, he didn't take any more substantive hostile actions.

but--

"Don't look at it, they didn't react so quickly... At least before that, I should have enough time to deal with you."

Mu Xiu kept his head slightly tilted. He stared at the white-haired boy in front of him and said softly. The words formed by the vibration of Qingyue's voice spread not far away in the empty dark space around him, and were blown by Lie Lie The night wind blew away.

Listening to the announcement of the side mission that was finally triggered by his own actions in his mind, and the familiar cold reminder from the big light ball slowly falling, Mu Xiu's eyes finally changed.

——"If you defeat Accelerator, you will be rewarded with [-] reward points plus two C-level side plots!"

The rewards are not too much, and I am even a little sorry for the value of Fang Accelerator, but it can only show that with Mu Xiu's current state and preparation conditions, Fang Accelerator is no longer a particularly serious threat. Leaving aside the bonus of plot status, it may only be able to reach C-level relative grade hierarchy.

Maybe if you kill it directly, you can raise the reward to at least B level, because that will definitely lead to a huge change in the plot... But since the mission of the big light ball itself is only to "defeat", then it should be It is because it judges that it has no possibility or necessity to kill the opponent at all.

It was as if Mu Xiu had never triggered any side missions for Kamijou Touma, because there was no such possibility, so there was no need to release missions.

In fact, there is no need for explicit hints like the big ball of light, even if there is no hint, Mu Xiu himself is very clear.

Because as long as he really wanted to kill the other party, he would intuitively have a very bad premonition.It's as if once I really do this, something that I regret will happen the next moment.

For ordinary people, the so-called intuition is just something that should have been thrown into the trash can long ago, but that wasn't the case for him.Whether it is "the cicada perceives before the golden wind moves" or "sees but does not hear, and avoids danger", they are all expressions describing the spiritual state of a master who is unpredictable.

He is indeed in a mysterious state that can be known in advance.

I can't say I have any insight into the future, but as long as I want to do something, I will intuitively feel the tendency of the consequences, and I can instinctively judge the results of my actions in an instant, as well as the vagueness about the results. bad question.

Maybe it's because Accelerator is much more important than Mu Xiu on Aleister's chessboard. Kamijou Touma can't be lost no matter what, Accelerator can be damaged but he can't be really killed. Killing, at least in the current plot period... This should be the bottom line of tolerance for the chairman who is hanging upside down.

It's just that Mu Xiu didn't need to be too radical in the first place, and now if he could compensate Accelerator after overthrowing one party, he would naturally be even more unwilling.

Then - let's defeat the opponent!
But although it sounds ironic, this "sister" who killed nearly ten thousand people and personally produced tons of blood, flesh, internal organs, and an equal amount of crime and hatred monster, is indeed not a monster by nature. kill people.

Or it should be said that it is a negative personality type that wants to protect others, although he himself scoffs at this and calls himself a "villain".But in fact, it is true. In order not to hurt others, he will not even have disputes with others casually. Although there are often some brainless guys who want to attack him to become the "strongest", but at most the result is only injured but not dead. .

That's right, although there are always some guys who can't see the situation clearly and attack him day and night, but basically no one really dies for it.

After the offender is defeated in the future, Accelerator usually ignores the opponent directly, and never bothers to make up the knife.Therefore, unless one's own ability is too deadly, after being reflected back, one's own rescue is directly ineffective, so basically one can still breathe after a head-on confrontation with Accelerator. Such a thing is not a miracle, but a common occurrence .

It's just that the white-haired boy himself thinks that this is because the person who can be killed today can be killed tomorrow, and the person who can be killed tomorrow can be killed a year later.

It's a fool's errand to get serious with those guys.

——But as long as he really regards it as an enemy, he will use his abilities mercilessly, and his style is bold and cruel.

So this can probably explain his behavior, a little impatience in his heart can kill others, so there can't be any emotional ups and downs.Only by becoming a person like ice can we avoid losing control of our own power and endangering others.Therefore, he will not easily deliver the final blow to the fallen, nor will he be serious about those who cannot become enemies.

As for the "sister" who was killed...

It can only be said that they didn't show any emotion, they were probably just puppets, and Accelerator didn't regard them as real human beings.

……

……

The empty building has not been decorated yet, only the empty frame and basic structure. The summer evening wind travels through the empty and unobstructed buildings, and there are strange and creepy noises one after another.

Darkness, no light.

Only the outlines of the buildings in the distance are faintly visible, with the brilliance of the city, almost subconsciously making people mistakenly believe that they are in the suburbs outside the city.

"... Enough time, to deal with me?"

The red pupils dilated instantly, and a few seconds later, Accelerator's mouth seemed to be unable to restrain his happy grin.

Then he held his forehead and laughed, "What, I thought you were an ignorant person who accidentally strayed into this place, but it seems that you came here just for me... Hahahaha, what the hell is this? You think you can fight me by giving yourself a strange nickname..."

The sound stopped abruptly!

Accompanied by the sound of a huge crackling electric current breaking through the air, Mu Xiu withdrew his palm and moved his five fingers a few times. At the same time, the ground and the building seemed to vibrate.

No, this is not an illusion. With the help of the blue-white electric light that just flashed past and illuminated the entire space, the white-haired boy clearly saw that the shining thunder seemed to penetrate and crash a corner of the building.

The surface of the solid reinforced concrete building was torn apart, and a huge "wound" of more than ten meters was cracked on the originally smooth floor surface. The strange sound of metal friction that made people's teeth sore sounded. The scaffolding erected during the smooth progress of the construction process, the wooden boards, bamboo feet, steel pipes, etc. on it tilted slowly, and finally collapsed and fell down!

The diffuse smoke and dust rose uncontrollably.

From the beginning to the end, as if it was about to burn the retina, what remained in the air of this dark space was just a dazzling blue-white electric light.

There is no assistance or trickery, and it is not a method of using a super-powerful electromagnet to shoot metal projectiles... It is just a purely released energy current, but the electric field is too strong. The thermal effect after hitting is also too strong, and the physical destructive power caused is completely enough to compare with powerful and large-caliber sniper bullets.

Just an understatement of the blow, there is at least hundreds of thousands of volts of terrifying energy, enough to instantly turn the human body into fly ash.

And looking at the other party's appearance that seemed to be full of ideas, such behavior seemed to be nothing more than a child's play, not even a warm-up.

So Accelerator stopped his previous provocation and ridicule to his heart's content. Although he still didn't have any nervous or vigilant mood swings, it didn't mean that he was so arrogant—so arrogant that he couldn't detect the other party's kind of behavior at all. Calm to creepy eyes.

This shouldn't be, and it's too wrong.

Unlike those previous opponents who lacked interest in even letting him take a look, the eyes of the person opposite were very clear and not bloodshot.The eyes of the person opposite are very calm, without any excessive tension, anxiety, fear and anxiety, let alone excessive, but nonexistent at all.

Isn't it the same as the previous idiot who yelled and mustered up his courage to rush forward, trembling and full of expectations, but from the very beginning, he was very clear about what he was going to do? !

That kind of thing is absolutely impossible!I have the ability to "freely change the direction of kinetic energy, thermal energy, electrical energy and other energy that touches the skin", and I am not one of the strongest ability users in Academy City.The opponent may be more comprehensive and powerful than himself in the field of electricity, but when it comes to the vector direction of electric energy, it is absolutely impossible to compete with him.

So how could the opponent really think he could win?

but……

An opponent whose ability level has reached Level 5 is really the kind of person who is careless and has no brains?Haven't even considered such a simple question?
The white-haired boy was thoughtful, but as the number one in Academy City with the title of "The Most Powerful Person", he was still habitually unable to fully take it seriously, just casually thinking about what he was thinking about. The information he saw and heard was instinctively calculated and integrated into useful information.

Then, he sneered, his hands drooping lazily, and he did nothing.

"It's not bad, it's exactly the same as those low-quality dolls, but it's more comprehensive and powerful... Could it be that you are their "prototype"?No, I remember that their bodies seem to be the same gender..." Accelerator smacked his lips in dissatisfaction.

"It's interesting like this. It's really annoying to repeat the same thing nearly ten thousand times. If you think that you can challenge me just by relying on this kind of power, it's a bit wishful thinking, but it seems that you have given me a little more freshness." On the premise of feeling, I can spare your life at the end..."

"..."

Mu Xiu observed the other party quietly, did not speak, or did not speak immediately.

He was indeed very aware of the blow he just made. Although it was a terrifying force that ordinary people could not reach in a lifetime, it was still not enough for the white-haired boy in front of him, and it was still far behind.

That's why he just fired a lightning spear to the side to prove his ability level, instead of directly attacking Accelerator - that would be meaningless, and would be directly "reflected" back .

So it's better to just prove your identity, let Accelerator get a little more serious and at the same time mislead the other party's thinking direction, probably only when he beats him down with other methods other than direct confrontation, he will understand What is the original intention of discharging myself in the first place.

"I think I have a great advantage..."

Hidden in the long sleeve, his index finger lightly stroked the surface of the knife, feeling the cold metal touch, Mu Xiu suddenly said as if nothing had happened, and smiled softly.

For now, everything is normal, and then I just need to act step by step.

Such a thought flashed through his mind instantly, and Mu Xiu looked at Accelerator with pity suddenly.His expression was suddenly full of sympathy.It's just that such ingredients not only didn't make the white-haired boy feel any warmth and care, but also successfully aroused his anger.

Accelerator narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression quickly turned into a look of extreme impatience, and he spat to the side: "Forget it, it seems that you are unwilling to accept my kindness... Then, your death date is about the same. It's time to arrive!"

The sound of precise footsteps sounds like the second hand on a time bomb.

The two people in the confrontation turned their heads to look at the same time, and the girl who walked out of the darkness and came to the scene was a girl of the age of a middle school student, with shoulder-length brown hair, wearing a gray pleated skirt, a short-sleeved top, and a thin summer sweater , no different from Misaka Mikoto.

But she wore military night vision goggles on her head, and she gave off a careless or careless feeling.

"There is still one minute and 20 seconds before the start of the experiment. In order to confirm that you are the person involved in this experiment, Misaka suggests to confirm the password first..." The girl said lightly like a doll with a timer, and then she looked He turned to Mu Xiu, without even moving his eyebrows, "There has been an unexpected interference, whether to continue the experiment according to the plan, Misaka reported with some confusion."

Accelerator frowned, then spat on the ground again, as if about to spit out something disgusting, and said to himself, "Cut!"

"……How is this going?"

Mu Xiu blinked his eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He pointed to the girl who appeared, "Isn't this Misaka Mikoto? Why did it appear here? Speaking of which, what is your experiment?"

Acting instantly on the line.

Whether it is the subtle changes in expression and eyes, or the changes in heartbeat, pulse, body temperature, pupils, etc., they all show the "truth" that Mu Xiu seems to be unaware of.
