Academy City's Puppet Master

But this new enemy is much easier to deal with - as long as he insists on attacking frontally, then Ling Xingye has nothing to worry about.

"It's so slow!" Empress Lu Cuncang complained while stepping back.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," it turned out to be a female voice who answered, "But I don't have the exaggerated mobility ability of Lu Cun and you... I'll be satisfied if I can come here in time."

A tall and plump girl walked out of the smoke. Although the data showed that she was a magician, she looked more like a third-rate mercenary.

He was wearing a set of jungle camouflage from the army of an unknown country. It was obviously a male style that was one size larger, but it was still full of the magnificence of his chest.

A pair of wide goggles draped over his face, and his pale blond hair was pulled back in a messy mess.

A grenade launcher was in his hand, and the pockets of his tactical jacket were bulging.

No matter how you look at it, you are a fully armed soldier, not a magician.

"Wow, Lu Cun, you look so miserable..." Kumiko Yanaka, a magician with the appearance of a mercenary, exclaimed exaggeratedly, "It seems that this boy is really strong."

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work!"

"Okay, okay." Kumiko replied in a perfunctory tone.

Then she suddenly raised her gun and blasted at the sprite, and four high-explosive grenades shot it back.

After emptying the magazine, she threw away the grenade launcher and took out two bombs from a pocket—the same primitive dynamite image she dropped from the top of the building before, ignited with a fuse.

But the power of the bomb was unusually great, two balls of solid fire with a diameter of ten meters rose into the air, devouring everything around them.

——Including sprites and Lucun.

===Chapter 30 Truce===

A huge fireball rose from the ground, engulfing the sprites and Lucun together regardless of whether it was the enemy or the enemy.

The flames rose, outlining a small mushroom cloud in midair.A violent storm swept across the entire street, Ling Xingye staggered and was almost knocked down by the blast.

Kumiko didn't take the opportunity to attack, instead she watched the beauty of the explosion happily from behind, while whistling frivolously.

I don't know what kind of gunpowder formula Kumiko used. The pillar of fire formed by the explosion soared into the sky and lingered for a long time.People can't help but worry whether the two "people" inside will be burned to ashes.

At this time, a figure rushed out of the flames, and the airflow stirred up by the rapid advance blew out the flames on its body, revealing the shiny metallic body underneath—it was the sprite.

Another figure followed closely behind. Lu Cun, who had lost both arms, fled out of the flames in embarrassment. His left leg was also severely damaged, and his sense of balance was completely destroyed, and finally rolled all the way to Kumiko's feet in embarrassment.

"Bastard, you even bombed me!" He cursed loudly, his voice was distorted through the speakers.

"Don't worry, Lu Cun's body is already in tatters anyway," Kumiko continued to throw explosives at the sprite without feeling guilty, "Oh! That puppet is as strong as you. It can hold me special gunpowder!"

You can't just be beaten passively like this!Ling Xingye felt that his consciousness was a little fuzzy - he had been injured too much, and the sequelae of severe blood loss began to appear.

It must be done quickly!Regardless of protecting the puppet, Ling Xingye controlled the sprite to turn around and meet him, and at the same time spread out the "flying blades", preparing to kill the two of them.

Kumiko seemed to know his fighting methods, so naturally she didn't dare to let these silk threads get close to her easily.

Instead of throwing out the two explosives in her hand, she smashed them hard on the ground beside her feet.

Boom!

The flames rose, and the sprites were pushed back by the air waves from the explosion; the "flying blade" that was already close to the enemy was also blown away.

Kumiko herself emerged from the flames unscathed.

She muttered something, and then threw the explosives in her hand towards Ling Xingye with a heroic movement of throwing a baseball.

On this bomb, Ling Xingye also felt the breath of magic power!

what is this?Enchanted Dynamite?

Ling Xingye yelled in his heart that something was wrong, and he couldn't care less about continuing to fight the enemy, so he quickly turned his head and supported himself to retreat to the rear.

Destructive power erupts from this tiny dynamite in a perfectly spherical flame zone.

The flames dissipated, and there was a big pit where Ling Xingye was just now—the trace left when the flame spherical area occupied the ground here.

Without further ado, Kumiko dropped the bomb again.

"You only know this trick!" Ling Xingye couldn't help complaining, "Besides, how did you come in with so many prohibited items!"

"Don't underestimate gunpowder!" Kumiko scolded angrily, "Gunpowder originated from alchemy in ancient China, that is, oriental alchemy! In a symbolic sense, gunpowder is completely equivalent to the existence of the philosopher's stone."

"As long as it is refined by magic means, the original black powder formula can exert power unimaginable by modern people!"

"Don't talk nonsense, kill him quickly!" Lu Cun shouted.

He shook his shoulders, and although both arms were broken, he still threw the swallowtail dart somehow.

But this time, the swallowtail dart did not fly very far before hitting the flying blade and falling to the ground.

"You go first!" he shouted at Kumiko immediately.

"What are you afraid of!" the beautiful mercenary threw down a gunpowder nonchalantly.

The rising blazing fireball engulfed the two of them again.

Ling Xingye used cubes to tighten the flying blade, so it was not blown away by the explosion.

In the flames, Kumiko's exclamation came.

"I told you to leave quickly!" Lu Cun's voice said, "How could the same trick still work?"
