People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

Handing the phone in his hand to Sigurd, whose mouth was twitching, Mugino Shirley fell on the sofa with his legs hugged like a tumbler, gloating at the "contact person"'s misfortune.

"I'm sorry to make you get used to it? Could you please elaborate on the second half?"

【That, that, that... yes, it's Kihara Uzumaki!Yes, Kihara Uzumaki said it all!I don't know anything, I don't know anything.It's all hearsay, hearsay.Hehehahaha......]

Sigurd stiffly raised his head as he listened to the mobile phone whose heroic laughter turned into an interrupted sound like a general with a black face.

"Why don't you get rid of that guy. Mai Ye, what kind of new 'contact person' do you want..."

"That's the end of the squabbling."

I sat up and put on my boots, not wanting to move, but work is work.

Moreover, those idiots can also relieve stress by performing surgery. Mugino Shenli doesn't mind exercising some muscles and bones at that time, and there is nothing to do lying here anyway.

"Frenda, Takitsubo, Kinuhata. Time to work."

"Going to work again? I really don't want to move."

"Huh!? But I just found canned mackerel!?"

"..."

Not caring about other complaints about work, Mugino Shirley moved his body a little, then looked back at Sigurd.

"How about it? Anyway, I'm idle anyway, don't you plan to do some activities?"

Chapter 360: Spillet begynner

Academy City, as a city of science and technology that claims to be "two or thirty years ahead of the outside world", it is quite normal for people with ulterior motives to target it.

Therefore, this has also led to the infrastructure network of Academy City usually being established in a decentralized manner.

This is also the reason why Sigurd asked the members of the "Silver Cross" to attack multiple power supply points at the same time in order to cut off the power supply of Academy City. At the same time, he also specially left the wind farm on the upper floor of the No.

Leaving aside the sensitive issue of "war reserve", the wind turbines scattered all over the city are a famous example.

Another example is the third-generation sewer system that spreads all over the underground of Academy City and even connects multiple counties and cities in Tokyo's "capital circle".

By the way, because Japan's "Capital Law" has been abolished, although it is generally recognized that Tokyo is the capital of Japan, this perception is not accurate.

Especially after the establishment of Academy City, many administrative agencies have gradually moved away from Tokyo and moved to Nagoya and other places.

Regarding the issue of sewage treatment, Academy City does not actually use a centralized sewage treatment system, but uses microbial storage and cultivation equipment distributed in various pipelines to purify water quality.

Of course, the sewage treated in this way will still be concentrated in a specific place for secondary treatment, and then sent to various places in Academy City through pipelines for use.

However, although such a treatment method is very suitable for a next-generation city like Academy City with strong "technical capabilities" but limited land area, sometimes the rapid reproduction of microorganisms will cause the water to become like a red tide.

In order to cope with such emergencies, the ultraviolet sterilizing lamps placed at key positions will be activated at this time to control their quantity, so as to ensure that the water quality will not be polluted and can meet the direct drinking water standard of Academy City.

It is precisely because of this distribution strategy that Academy City has always adopted.

As a result, even if these decentralized facilities become the target of terrorist attacks or are controlled by the enemy during wartime, Academy City can still operate normally, and the entire Academy City will not be damaged due to the loss of a power station or a water supply plant. Lose the ability to cope.

A location is destroyed and there are enough spares in the system to take the load it leaves behind.

This allows Academy City to deal with even the worst of situations.

To put it more bluntly, "be prepared" or "prepare for a rainy day", but the high-level leaders in Academy City themselves are well aware of why this is necessary.

Just like the development of the major churches and associations on the magic side, it is impossible not to see blood in the process of development. In the rapid development of Academy City in these years, it is difficult not to contact in a darker direction for what has been done behind the scenes. .

"Is this the place that was attacked? By the way, is it okay for us to do this? This is the virus storage center, right?"

"This is the underground of the virus storage center. The system for dealing with virus leaks here is not in operation. That is to say, even if the virus leaks, it is sealed inside. The closed measures of this kind of organization are called 'making everyone desperate' Absolutely blocked."

This is the lower institution of one of the virus sample storage and cultivation facilities. Strictly speaking, this is also an integrated facility of the upper institution, so it doesn't matter if it is inside.

The place is about the size of a standard campus gym, and it's filled with metal pipes.

Each pipe is about a classroom wide and three stories high.Steps are built next to the pipes, and there are interlaced sky bridges at the heights.

So while it's quite large, it does feel very crowded at first glance.

"So? What is our job? There is no one here?"

"What are you looking at me for? Isn't this your job? That idiot didn't tell you what to do?"

Mai Ye Shenli sighed, and took out the phone from the pocket of the short skirt.

"Isn't it scared by you. That woman hung up the phone without saying a word?"

"Whose problem is this caused?"

"Even so..."

The two sides fell silent suddenly, followed by a strange silence.

Frenda's suspicious voice broke the silence.

"Muino, what's wrong?"

Then Mugino Shirley and Sigurd noticed at the same time.

Surely Kinuhata, who suddenly picked up Flander and Takitsubo Rigo, noticed it too, right?

"Hey, this smell..."

"Ah, it's a solid petrol bomb."

"time to go."

The three of them flipped down from the flyover straightforwardly. When the three of them fell into the air, the flyover above suddenly exploded violently under the metal plates in front of and behind the group of people.

The hot blast came from above, and the three fell freely in mid-air.

Kinuhata, who turned over and jumped down first because he was carrying two people, loves to land first, in order to prevent Takitsubo Rigo on his shoulders and Flander under his arm from breaking his spine due to the impact of falling from a high altitude.

So Kinuhata loves to control the "offensearmor" to expand in advance in mid-air, using the gas expansion as a buffer so that the fall will not stop suddenly, causing Frenda and Takitsubo to die.

At the same time, immediately after landing, he spread his arms and used the "Nitrogen Armor" to protect Frenda and Takitsubo from the metal fragments falling from above.

As for Mai Ye Shenli, he used magnetic force to move his body between the protruding pipes in mid-air, and used a large number of metal pipes around him as "anchor points" to avoid the metal fragments falling from above while landing smoothly.

As for Sigurd...

Under the hard landing of "pong", this monster mercenary just stood in the center of the greatly sunken ground as if nothing had happened.

Sigurd, who fell from the nearly [-]-story overpass in the sunken center like a crater that was bombed by a shell, walked towards Mai Ye Shenli and the others as if nothing happened.

"You are indeed a monster. Speaking of which, what is your ability?"

"Whatever you want."

"That's really a simple and crude ability."

Thinking that Sigurd was perfunctory, Shigeru Mugino didn't really care what Sigurd said.

He was attacked by someone as soon as he arrived here, and this extremely irritable superpower is now considering whether to wait until he breaks the attacker's bones one by one.

"Tsk, I'm really upset. These stupid things not only make my mother work overtime in the hot weather, but also dare to do this. Sure enough, it's too cheap to simply kill that stupid thing, right?"

"For such a super unconscious guy, it really is more appropriate to be super violent."

"Spilletbegynner (game on)!"

"..."

The three of them, irritated by the sudden attack, let out smiles that could be called "perverted".

As for Takitsubo Rihou, she was listless as always, God knows what she was thinking.

Chapter 360: On a hot day, can't you set up some cool traps or something?

This is an alley in the fifth school district of Academy City.

The ground that has not been cleaned for an unknown period of time, as well as the wooden boards that smelled musty due to the wind and sun, cardboard boxes and other miscellaneous things that have been blackened beyond recognition.

Such an environment exudes a disgusting smell in the high heat of summer.

It's the perfect place for rats and cockroaches and such.

It is only a few hundred meters away from the virus storage and cultivation center in the fifth school district, and it is almost only one building away.

"Quickly confirm, it's been more than 3 minutes since the agreed time!"

[This is location a, no target person found.How is the situation over there? 】

The guy with a rather old-fashioned sniper rifle at the link between the buildings reported this to his comrade.

The summer sun illuminated the not-so-deep alley, and an "ice cream truck" was parked in the shadow of the building to enjoy the shade, as if it was waiting for someone.

They were the ones who planned to join other people to evacuate after attacking and capturing the virus database in Academy City.

The reason why they were able to wait for others here without fear after attacking the research institute was actually because there was a certain figure behind them who could provide them with the necessary shelter.

[The petrol bomb installed under the facility has been detonated.Probably the first batch of guards who came to confirm had already been dealt with. 】

"Why hasn't the 'recycling operator' arrived yet? After the first batch of personnel were attacked, I'm afraid the second batch will be the personnel from the 'Anbu'?"

[The other side said that they have already rushed this way.Damn it, it really shouldn't be through "middlemen" to find some amateur players. 】

"Stop complaining. I don't know why 'Department Store' and 'Spider Queen' have stopped accepting orders recently. It is not easy to find 'talent dispatch' through the network."

[I know, but don't you think those guys came too fast?Could it be the Special Response Unit deployed in District [-]? 】

"Ghost knows. But if it's the virus management center, it's normal for such a response force to be stationed for a long time?"

Listening to the communication of his companions in the communication channel, the driver in charge of driving the "ice cream" car to bring the group in complained unconsciously.

"Speaking of which, did those guys find the wrong place? Shouldn't they be there long ago?"

[No, there is no mistake, it's just that you can't see them for the time being. 】

"?"

The man in charge of driving the "ice cream truck" suddenly heard other people's voices mixed into their internal communication channels.

He immediately took out the pistol hidden on the right side of the driver's seat, and opened the safety after confirming the bullets.

【Although I’m not here now, I’m definitely here by your side~】

"who is it!?"
