A Certain Scientific Bee-eater

The comers were dressed in red knight uniforms and funny full-face safety helmets like the previous two people. Judging from their body curves, shoulder width and height, these people seemed to have a wide distribution of males and females.

At a glance, there were about twenty people.

When they came back to their senses, the front, rear and left and right were all blocked.

"Why are you here...and that equipment..."

Shokuhou Misaki immediately turned his head and looked at Misaka Mikoto beside him in confusion.

"There's nothing at all in that warehouse on the basement floor."

Misaka Mikoto gave the answer.

Ah... That's why Misaka Mikoto came to the second floor so quickly. I'm afraid she hurried over because she was worried that she would be in danger after discovering the strangeness of the warehouse?

It is true that she would guess like the result, but she would definitely not ask the other party for confirmation.

Shokuhou Misaki's mood is a bit complicated, but now is not the time to worry about such things.

It would take at least an hour to get here from the seventh school district, even if they rushed with the equipment at a speed of several hundred kilometers at that time, regardless of the eyes of others, and it was obviously less than 10 minutes before they arrived at the power plant.

Whether she admits it or not, judging from the current situation, they were probably put together by the enemy.

I am afraid that the enemy has anticipated their actions from the very beginning, or monitored their whereabouts, but [psychological mastery] can't go wrong, and what the guard she controls is what he thinks is true.

Is it because the other party discovered their whereabouts first and changed the plan temporarily, or did 'deceive others first deceive yourself' deliberately set up a game to wait for them to enter the urn?

Judging from the fact that there is no equipment in the warehouse, it is probably the latter that is more likely.

The reason why such a bureau was set up may be to prevent the guards and discipline committees from coming to the door. Maybe the enemy did not expect that they would be brave and only two people?

Damn, if I had known this, she would not have stopped Fanfeng Runzi to inform the guards in the morning.

Shokuhou Caoqi couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

But even regretting it now doesn't help. What's more important is how to deal with the current situation.

According to her speculation, the enemy probably already knew that they had investigated their stronghold.

It is impossible for her 'intelligence source' to betray her, and the person behind the 'dead knot' might be more powerful than she imagined.

In the currently known information, only 'that person surnamed Qiu Yuan is related to the mastermind behind the scenes' is true.

But she wasn't sure that person was among the group of people in front of her, and now she needed to consider not how to catch that 'Qiu Yuan', but how to break through the siege and escape.

Just now, Misaka Mikoto seemed to have easily killed the two enemies, but that was when there were only two opponents.

Even if the opponent can reproduce the 'second kill' just now, if more than 20 enemies charge up together, they probably have no chance of fighting back, right?

After all, Misaka Mikoto doesn't have three heads and six arms.

Not to mention that the enemy is not an ordinary person but a person of ability, even if the level is not high, if used properly, it can cause a lot of damage.

No matter how you think about it, there is no way out.

However, that is premised on the survival of two people.

Although she is very unwilling, but now that her ability is ineffective against the enemy, she is just a burden, and if she wants Misaka Mikoto to protect herself while fighting, it will only lead to the end of both of them.

However, if the opponent ignores her and escapes alone, even if she wears a strange outfit, the enemy will definitely be unable to take Misaka Mikoto, who has the athleticism of a female gorilla.

After all, Misaka Mikoto is level 5.

Moreover, after all, the other party was only involved in the beginning. Although she used the reason of 'to deal with a common enemy', but she already had some guesses about the mastermind behind the scenes, and she knew that the other party's goal was probably only from the beginning. Own.

'Dead knots' are just pawns that are discarded after being exploited.

They are neither childhood sweethearts who have known each other for several years, nor sisters whose blood is thicker than water. They are not even friends. They are just classmates who happened to meet a few times during the summer vacation. .

In other words, there was no need for Misaka Mikoto to stay with her.

One life is better than two deaths.

"Misaka-san—"

The determined Shokuhou Misaki was about to speak, when one of the 'Dead Knot' members who surrounded them both suddenly stepped forward a few steps.

"Misaka Mikoto, the third-ranked lv5 superpower, Academy City's strongest electric shocker, codenamed [Super Electromagnetic Cannon]."

The knight uniform completely ignored Shokuhou Misaki next to him, looked straight at Misaka Mikoto, and spoke in a tone that couldn't tell her emotions.

"If I can, I really don't want to meet you, can I ask you to leave?"

"You want to let us go?"

Misaka Mikoto was slightly taken aback when she heard the words.

"Not you, just you."

The knight uniform shook his head, then raised his hand to the Shokuhou Misaki next to him,

"She's going to stay."

"What do you mean, isn't your purpose to destroy all lv5s?"

Misaka Mikoto sneered,

"Why, are you going to break us one by one in this way of sowing discord?"

"No, our original purpose is indeed this, but these days we have fully realized the strength of lv5 and the price that needs to be paid to achieve this goal."

The knight uniform explained,

"Although we are not afraid of death, we don't want to die in vain. Therefore, we changed our goal and only hope that the lv5 superpower who hates us the most, Shi Feng Cao Qi, pays the price he deserves."

"Hate or something..."

Misaka Mikoto turned to look at Shokuhou Misaki with a strange expression on her face, and said in a low voice,

"What horrific thing have you done to them before? Will you be forgiven if you apologize now?"

"Whose side are you on? I don't know them at all, okay!"

Shokuhou Caoqi's face couldn't help but turn dark.

Is this guy really lacking in IQ or is he trying to find fault with her?The other party's words are clearly just excuses!

"Did she say that? What kind of enmity is there between the two of you? Can it only be solved by an extreme method like the death of one party?"

Misaka Mikoto spread her hands and looked at the knight uniform she just spoke.

To actually reason with an enemy who wants to take away his life force... Should I say this guy is a bigot or naive?

Shokuhou Misaki's eyes slightly moved slightly in the direction away from Misaka Mikoto.

However, she was also a little curious.

Originally, she just felt that the members who formed the 'Dead Knot' were provoked by others because their abilities were at a bottleneck and could not be improved.

But listening to the man just now, it doesn't seem like that?

"Yes."

Under the eyes of the two, the knight uniform nodded without pretense,

"Not only for us, but for many more innocent victims, there is only one way to eliminate [psychological mastery]."

ps: Shokuhou: Let's go.

Misaka Mikoto: I'm not leaving.

Shokuhou Caoqi: If you stay here, you might die too, leave me alone, let's go.

Misaka Mikoto: Believe me, no one will die, neither will you, nor will I.

Shokuhou: You...why...

Misaka Mikoto: Fool, why are there so many?It's just that I want to do it.

After this is over, we will go back to our hometown to get married.

(What kind of bloody ancient costume idol drama is this... don't take it seriously)

34. If the world doesn't need you

There is a term called [AIM diffusion force field].

The weak power emanating from the subconscious mind of the capable person.If the ability to generate fire is shown as heat, the ability to move is shown as pressure, and the ability to generate electricity is shown as electromagnetism... but these are only general terms.

In fact, what is emitted varies from person to person, and the same is so weak that it is necessary to use specially made precision instruments to barely observe.

However, no matter how weak, strength is still strength.

They do release, and have varying degrees of impact on the surrounding environment, but most of the time the effect is negligible.

And the ability of Shokuhou Caoqi is [psychological mastery], so what kind of ability will be released subconsciously, and what kind of impact will it have on the surrounding environment?

It's not that she hadn't thought about it.

It is precisely because she suspects that the people she gets along with will be affected by [psychological mastery], and suspects that other people's feelings for her are false rather than real, that she can't truly communicate with others.

What's more sad is that as long as she still has the ability of [psychological mastery], she will never be able to confirm or deny this speculation.

That's why the boy group called 'Dead Knot' wanted to destroy her.

Some people have the ability to distort the world at will.

It is because this kind of guy distorts the equality of the world based on personal interests that many people are forced to face all kinds of unreasonableness.

And, most importantly,

Those who are willing to distort the world and mass-produce misfortunes and tragedies in pursuit of their own interests do not have such self-consciousness.

Because the [AIM diffusion force field] of the ability person cannot be controlled.

"Because there is no self-consciousness, it is impossible to make concessions and negotiate. This is not something the parties can give up when they say they give up. In order to return the world to equality, the only way is to eliminate it."

The knight declared so with his unwavering voice.

- Haven't you thought that your life is too smooth?

——A wealthy family and the growth of ability are all at the expense of certain things. Haven't you thought about this?

Facing the opponent's doubts, Shokuhou Caoqi, who opened his mouth, found that he couldn't utter a retort at all.

Because what the other party said was originally the worries and fears that she had forced into the depths of her heart.
