Academy City's Puppet Master

"Well, sort of..." Misaka Mikoto replied casually, but those beautiful eyes were staring at the screen without blinking.

Because of her exemplary role, Shirai Kuroko came over curiously.

oh oh!awesome!

Saten Ruiko clenched her fist hard.

Raiding Misaka Mikoto is equivalent to dealing with Shirai Kuroko, and the mission is successful!

===Chapter [-] Fantasy Royal Hand===

"But this kind of thing is really unbelievable, right?" At this time, Shiri Uiharu, who had already recognized the reality, said, "There is no such thing as leveling up..."

"Actually, there are quite a lot." Unexpectedly, Misaka Mikoto said, "In this city, isn't every student doing similar things?"

Indeed, the theme of Academy City is superpowers, and the series of "Ability Development" courses are compulsory for all students.So regardless of the outcome, it is true that all students are doing similar "level-up" projects.

"In this way, I feel that the mystery is greatly reduced." Chuchun Zhuli couldn't help being disappointed.

"No, no, Chuharu, you think too simply!" Saten Ruiko shook her finger, "The so-called fantasy master is not such a simple and unreliable thing! The most essential difference from the ability development course we attended is—— Illusionary Hands really exist and are effective!"

She opened her arms and exaggeratedly announced: "According to the personal experience of other users in the forum - Fantasy Royal Hands can indeed improve their ability level!"

Then because it attracted the attention of other guests around, Saten Ruiko quickly shrank back.

"Really?" Shirai Heizi had a suspicious expression on his face, did he really have such a convenient technique?

Seemingly feeling that this kind of "miracle" is not very credible, Saten Renko laughed dryly: "That's why it's an urban legend."

So the four of them got together to read the post and the comments below.

The post itself is nothing special.It just introduced the existence of such a thing as "Fantasy Royal Hand", and then boasted it in an exaggerated and nonsense tone.

Just like the cheap little ads that can be seen everywhere on the Internet.Just like Chuchun Shili reminded-full of the feeling of "tricking you to pay".

To be honest, with only such an insincere post, no one would care about this so-called "fantasy master".

But there are a lot of comments from "users" at the bottom.

The originally incapacitated people suddenly had real and visible abilities; after the low-level ability users of level 1 and level 2 used them, their abilities were greatly enhanced...

And so on, people can't help but wonder if they are babysitters hired by scammers.

In fact, many people below did raise doubts.

"However, many of these speakers are old users of the forum, so it's unlikely that they will play tricks and deceive people together." Saten Leizi introduced, "And..."

She dragged the message below to the last few pages, and there was even a message about someone asking to buy "Fantasy Royal Hand".

"If it's really a liar, there shouldn't be so many people who have been duped, but they haven't been exposed in the forum, right?"

"Illegal transaction!" Shirai Heizi's eyes flickered coldly, "It is necessary to investigate!"

However, both buyers and sellers conduct the next step of specific transactions through private chats, so it is difficult to trace and find out the specific identities - you must know that this urban legend forum itself is an informal website...

"It's really expensive!" Chuchun Shili saw that someone even offered a high price of [-] yen in the message.

For ordinary students, this is by no means a small sum.

"It looks... like that." Shirai Kuroko muttered, because the participants were so serious that it was difficult to treat "Fantasy Master" as an ordinary farce.

"So, is this really effective? Is there any clearer evidence?" Shirai Heizi asked.

"This...doesn't seem to be there." Saten Ruiko hesitated, "At least I haven't seen it with my own eyes... But someone said in the message that the seller will personally prove the demonstration..."

Although excited, Saten Ruiko hasn't really made up her mind to try "Fantasy Master", so she only hears about similar information through forums, and actually knows no more than the other three.

"I don't know if it has any effect on level 5..."

At this moment, the other three could only hear Misaka Mikoto chanting.

"My lord, you are already level 5, the pinnacle of the superpower system, no matter how exaggerated your skills are, it is impossible to continue to improve your ability level?" Heizi said.

In Academy City's publicity and people's common sense, level 5 is the peak that a capable person can achieve.Academy City's current main official research is only how to raise more level 5, not how to further improve those who already have level 5 superpowers.

But...someone is indeed conducting experiments to break through level 6!Misaka Mikoto thought to herself.

That's why she became interested in such an urban legend for the first time.

Contrary to what Ruiko Saten and the others had imagined, Misaka Mikoto at this time really hoped to improve her ability level through "Phantom Hand".

——Only when he becomes stronger can he defeat Accelerator, end the "experiment", and save the remaining sisters.

Or... Hand over the "Fantasy Master" to Accelerator, let him use this method to become level 6, so as to stop killing the younger sisters.

Seeing Misaka Mikoto browsing the web seriously, Shirai Kuroko couldn't help frowning——Sister, there is something wrong, as the trump card of Tokiwadai Middle School, she never cares about issues such as level and strength, what now? ...

"However, it seems that it is very difficult to obtain the fantasy hand now." Saiten Saten said, "The relevant facilities seem to have been controlled by the group of armed incompetents. If ordinary people want to get it, they can only purchase it from those jiudao groups at high prices."

"Golden Way?" Misaka Mikoto suddenly thought of Ling Xingye and Hijikata, maybe there is a way to get it.

Shirai Heizi stared at her: "In this case, it is necessary to ask that man."

"Heizi, don't disturb Xingye any more." Misaka Mikoto immediately retorted.

"Oh? I didn't say that the person I was looking for was Mr. Ling Xingye."

"Kuroko……"
