Chapter 185
People in ancient times didn't know much about the natural phenomenon of thunder, so a series of related legends gradually evolved.

In almost all historical legends and mythological books, if there is no demon beating drums and thunder behind this phenomenon, there is often a god in charge of the weather.

What is the power of God, the most intuitive is the thunder in the sky.

This kind of unimaginable might, the power to tear apart the sky, not to mention thousands of years ago, or even the age of ignorance that was even more ancient and barbaric, even in this age that is so civilized that it can be called superstitious science, everyone The natural thunder is still a mighty force that human technology cannot match or even touch.

Only one lightning strike is needed, and the voltage between the cloud and the ground can reach 100 million volts, and the power can reach [-] billion kilowatts, which is thousands of times the power generated by a large hydropower station. However, there are millions of thunder and lightning phenomena on the earth every day occur--

Perhaps at this time, there are already about [-] lightning phenomena in the world.They emit about [-] lightning bolts per second, of which [-] strike the earth directly.

However, no matter what kind of popular science, it is not as meaningful as witnessing a super lightning in the most intuitive way.

Not to mention that this thunderstorm, which seemed to be the end of the world, was summoned by a weak human body in the general impression, so the psychological impact was even greater.At least for the researchers at the inspection site, it is simply a process of reshaping the three views.

As for the unknown "spectators" in the periphery and even in other school districts, it was even more frightening, and they could only watch this scene dumbfounded.

During the discharge process, due to the sudden increase in temperature in the flash channel, the air volume expands rapidly, thereby generating shock waves, resulting in strong thunder.

Then the strong flash and the roar of the explosion, accompanied by the terrifying thunderbolt that can be called a thunderbolt, crashed down from the vortex in the dark cloud, coupled with the dark cloud that almost covered half of the city, making almost All that everyone could see was a dark scene.

Human vision is extremely limited. When the sky is dark and the sun and the moon are dark in all directions, and there are only dark clouds and super thunderstorms slanting down, it is really easy to have an illusion of the end of the world.

Moreover, the power of this super lightning is indeed too crazy. Even the houses and buildings outside a few school districts are rattled. If it is not that the phenomenon of lightning is man-made and can be controlled, it As long as it is directly bombarded, it can blow up an unknown number of school districts.

But this is obviously impossible to happen, even if Mu Xiu really did this, it is impossible to really threaten Academy City.After all, there are at least two real monsters who possess the power of gods and demons above S rank, and there are at least two dormant in the seventh school district alone, and it is very unlikely that he would do such a crazy thing——

After all, it is already very difficult for him to control this kind of berserk energy that has completely reached his limit or even slightly exceeded it.

If we relax a little bit, let alone whether Academy City can be blown up, Mu Xiu himself, who bears the brunt of the blow, will be the first to be smashed to pieces, fearing that even a little ashes will not be left behind.

This is his maximum output. The one-time burst of power is almost uncontrollable. Except for Accelerator who can completely "reflect" the damage, the other Level 5s, even Misaka Mikoto and him, are directly smashed to pieces. Danger.

It's just that this kind of maximum output is basically difficult to calculate into the combat power at present, because this is only the upper limit of his maximum output, and it is not a normal combat power. At least in the extremely fast-paced and ever-changing battles, the enemy will not give him this. of time and opportunity.

……

……

The violent jet stream scattered the clouds, and the violent geomagnetic phenomenon almost caused the air to emit aurora, especially near the discharge site, which was so exaggerated that it almost caused some cars to levitate.

Almost everyone felt dizzy, their sense of direction and balance were out of balance, and those who were unsteady had to hold on to the objects next to them or simply fell to the ground.

Fortunately, this was not a nuclear explosion, but a phenomenon of super lightning that can often occur in nature, but it just happened to happen over Academy City this time, otherwise the radiation alone would have been fatal.

I don't know how long it has passed, as if time flies, and it seems to be stagnant.

The very sudden illusion of weightlessness disappeared all of a sudden, but many people even felt a sudden nausea and body discomfort, but most of these people have a physique that would make them dizzy even in a car for a long time.

The rumbling and low thunder sound swept across the entire Academy City, and the huge vortex in the sky gradually dissipated, the sky became clear again, and the midsummer sun shone down again...

It took only three to five minutes before and after, but all the previous thunder and lightning seemed to be hallucinations.

It's just that Academy City seems to have fallen into silence. Although many of the propeller blades of the wind turbines everywhere are still working, most of the areas seem to have fallen into a state of power outage.

Only certain places that are particularly important and have extremely high resistance to various situations can continue to operate without being affected by the power system of the external environment.

Other than that, it appears that all electronics are malfunctioning.

Kamijou Touma stared dumbfounded, then suddenly heard the roar of the surrounding crowd, turned his head and found that the pedestrians and students on the street were all shouting excitedly, but no one could hear them clearly. They were shouting something indiscriminately, and they didn't know whether their emotions were anger or excitement.

But Hedgehog can understand such emotions, because it is too shocking——

Regardless of whether the phenomenon just now was caused by the trial operation of the latest technological weapons in Academy City, or the actions of capable people, it was too shocking.Only by facing that kind of divine power at such a close distance can one understand how insignificant human beings are in front of the violent power of nature. But now, that violent energy is being held back by human technology.

Vaguely, Kamijou Touma seemed to have thought of something, and sighed with a wry smile: "Sure enough, all of them are like the characters in the comics, so strong that they are not human at all... Wait, if it is true If it's the store manager..."

His face suddenly changed slightly. Speaking of which, that Bilibili seems to be a Level 5 power generator, so he should be able to create such a terrifying situation?
Hedgehog lowered his head and looked deeply at his right hand, to be precise, at the palm of his right hand, from the wrist to the fingertips.

I don't know what he was thinking.

However, Kamijou Touma obviously thought too much, and Misaka Mikoto's greatest effort at this stage should also be "real thunder".But even though it is also an attack of gathering thunderclouds and generating lightning between clouds and ground, the maximum output voltage can reach one billion volts, and there is no way to replicate it to the scale of the thunderstorm just now.

The larger the scale of the capability, the more computing power is required.

It seems that Fang Accelerator can barely control the wind in the entire Academy City at this stage at most. In the same way, Mu Xiu seems to be amplifying his move. After the preparation and cooling in the early stage, the thunderstorm just created is almost That level of scale.

It is simply beyond the range that human beings can resist. If they are attacked by this kind of attack, even the nuclear shelter buried underground will be blown out.

Probably because of the unlucky physique that has been involved in unfortunate events all the year round, Kamijou Touma has already exercised super-normal nerves and adaptability, and he has returned to normal when the people around him are still emotionally excited. , and has begun to seriously consider his itinerary for today.

It was as if nothing had happened to him just now.

Shaking his head vigorously, the boy Kamijou looked at the bank in front of him, hesitating whether to continue past, because it seems that the power has been cut in a large area in the city, and the bank is also like this.If the power system has not been restored for a long time, it seems that I can only do useless work in the past.

However, the city is 30 to [-] years ahead of the outside world after all. As long as there is no large-scale failure or physical damage to the circuit system, it should be very fast to recover. Especially now that the entire city is in a power outage, it is even more impossible to allow them to be meek. It was slowly fixed.

Such a thought flashed through his mind, and even though he hesitated, the boy Kamijou continued to walk forward.

Then he couldn't help sighing, often when he made such a choice, things would always develop in the opposite direction, and he wouldn't be surprised if the bank didn't restore power for the next day.

The reason why he didn't think about it backwards was because it was useless at all. If he turned around and left now, it is estimated that the bank's power and information systems would be restored soon.Anyway, everything changes according to the choices he made in actual actions, and he never encounters good things.

"Anyway, if you go back at this time, there must be no electricity, and the room is like a steamer... why don't you wait outside!"

As if wanting to cheer himself up, he complained to himself with a wry smile, then clenched his fists, "After all, it's just a power outage. At most, I can't get a replacement bank card today. It can't be more unlucky. Maybe someone will snatch it." The bank—huh?"

Before he finished speaking, Kamijou Touma frowned, looking forward curiously.Just now he didn't realize it was a little far away, but now that he got closer, he realized that it was clearly broad daylight, but the security door of the bank was lowered and locked tightly, and a group of onlookers outside the door looked anxious and nervous. waiting for something.

Could it be that the repair of the circuit has not yet started, and it has already been judged that it cannot be repaired today, and it is planned to close the store directly?
boom -

Just as Kamijou Touma was thinking wildly, there was a sudden explosion-like sound, and black smoke immediately rose from the bank building not far in front, and the glass doors and windows were shattered all over the place.The crowd on the surrounding streets fled in panic with a bang, and at the same time, sharp and piercing alarm bells sounded on the entire street.

"..."

Just now clenched his fists, the young man with the hedgehog head showing a firm expression on his face almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

The development in front of him seems like the whole world is laughing at him. Just now he made a statement of a similar nature, "It's nothing more than unlucky". Immediately, life came over and a big ear scraper knocked him to the ground, sneering Tell him "There are more unlucky ones, silly X".

Kamijou Touma felt his eyes darken. This is really an unlucky life. Doesn't it need an explanation?

Just know that you are unlucky enough.

"Get out of the way! Do you want to die?!"

Accompanied by such hasty shouts, several masked guys of various shapes rushed out from behind the burst security door, each holding a bag full of something in their hands.

It seemed that they were doing such a promising job as robbing a bank for the first time. Even though their faces were covered, they could still tell the feeling of panic from their movements and voices.
