A Certain Scientific Bee-eater

Sa——

As soon as the other party's voice fell, Misaka Mikoto's expression suddenly changed, and the iron sand agglomerates that looked like 'stilts' under her feet seemed to have completely lost control, and were blown away by the wind like dust.

"Varied--"

Misaka Mikoto, who was unprepared, had no time to adjust her posture, and then fell to the ground with a 'bang'.

"it hurts--!"

He couldn't help but let out a whimper, and a look of pain suddenly appeared on his face.

And Shokuhou Misaka, who was originally held by Misaka Mikoto in the way of a princess, fell down this time thanks to the other party putting herself under it, so she was unscathed.

"Misaka-san?!"

Shokuhou Misaki, who had recovered his senses, quickly got away from Misaka Mikoto, and asked worriedly while helping her up.

"How are you?"

"No, no, it's just..."

Misaka Mikoto rubbed her buttocks, raised her head to look at her palm,

crackling—

With the sound of the current breaking through the air, a few blue-white electric sparks appeared on her palm, but they disappeared in an instant.

"My ability……"

Misaka Mikoto turned to look at the enemy just now, her face a little unsightly.

"I have deployed [power insulation] around you, and all the electricity emitted from you will be absorbed and neutralized, so that your abilities are completely useless."

Sure enough, the enemy spoke in a determined tone.

"As long as I control you..."

Shokuhou Misaki immediately picked up the remote control and planned to point it at the other party.After all, the ability needs to be released by the ability person himself, so as long as she successfully uses [Psychological Mastery] on the lv3 ability person, she can let the other party touch the ability.

However, the opponent immediately accelerated away from the original position as expected.

At the same time, the rest of the 'Usurper's Guns' who had already turned their direction seized the opportunity to continue charging at them mercilessly, even if she could make her speed in correcting the direction of the remote control to keep up with the opponent's movement speed, at this time It is impossible to tell who the person who released the power just now is.

grumble--!

The sound of the wheels rubbing against the ground was like a signal from death.

It's going to go to ruin.

Shokuhou Misaki gritted his teeth.

Whether it was hit head-on at 5 kilometers per hour, or a big explosion caused by the leakage of JP[-] aviation fuel, or a start-up pile driver carried on the shoulder.

In the current situation where neither of them can use their abilities, they are like little white rabbits surrounded by wolves.

It was because of her that Misaka Mikoto was dragged into the water and is still in crisis of vitality, so,

"I'm here to delay the time, you go-"

That ability user is only level 3, and the range of abilities released is definitely not large. As long as Misaka Mikoto leaves the coverage area of ​​her abilities, she will definitely be able to use her abilities again.

It's just gambling.

If Misaka Mikoto doesn't have time to save her, she will definitely die, but Misaka Mikoto will survive because the enemy's primary target is her.After achieving his goal, there is no need for the other party to continue to entangle with Misaka Mikoto.

Isn't it obvious which one to choose between 'both of them die' and 'maybe we can be rescued'?

However, when Shokuhou Kaori was ready to step out, Misaka Mikoto held her shoulders. As soon as she turned her head in confusion, she ate an oncoming knife.

"It hurts... Hey, you—"

Shokuhou Misaka was about to have a seizure while covering his forehead, but his words were interrupted by Misaka Mikoto.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't I say before that I wouldn't let go of my friends?"

The other party frowned, and said a little unhappily as if he had been underestimated.

"But your ability..." Isn't it impossible to use it?

Shokuhou Misaki was about to refute this,

"You are also level 5, right?"

Misaka Mikoto interrupted her words abruptly, and then turned to face the 'Usurper Spears' who were attacking them, clenching her fists,

"Don't underestimate me too much, I really think this level of obstruction..."

Crack-!

The sound of the air being pierced by the electric current continued, Misaka Mikoto's whole body continued to flash blue-white electric fire, and the electric current was constantly swallowed by the indescribable things around her.

However, with her full power output, more and more electric sparks can remain around her body.

"Can you block the [rail gun] at Tokiwadai Middle School—!"

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. As Misaka Mikoto said, the enemy's ability called [Power Insulation] can restrain the Shocker, but she is the strongest Shocker in Academy City.

Is it just that the ability of lv3 can completely absorb and neutralize the electricity of lv5?

boom--!

Accompanied by such a loud noise, the [Lightning Shotgun], which was dozens of times larger than before, was like a fine rainstorm, deliberately bypassing Shokuhou Miku, who was very surprised, covering his mouth, and attacked the surrounding enemies. 'Baptism' away.

ps: Shokuhou Caoqi (star eyes (original)): So handsome——! (error)

ps2: After all, it is the most important 'strategic event', of course, let Mikoto perform well...

39. Hug all hugs

After the 'baptism' of thunder and lightning, there are very few enemies standing around.

If it was normal, Misaka Mikoto would definitely be able to accurately control the power of the [Lightning Gun], but just now, in order to break free from the range of the [Pneumatic Insulation], she had no time to care about it.

Therefore, the emitted current may have already exceeded the safe range that the human body can bear.

Fortunately, [Pneumatic Insulation] has absorbed a large part of her electricity, and [Lightning Gun] has not ignited the aviation fuel, otherwise the enemy who has been hit by electricity may not insist on going to the hospital for treatment.

"Do you still want to fight?"

Misaka Mikoto looked around, and then her eyes fell on one of the people who was still standing, and said.

"...Sure enough, every lv5 superpower is a monster."

This was the voice that had spoken to them earlier.

The knight uniform neatly threw the start-up pile driver on the shoulders that had been in a down state to the ground, and then took off the full-face safety helmet damaged by the electric shock, revealing the true face hidden under it - a look A spiky-haired male with a mature face.

"We surrendered, we will kill or cut at your disposal..."

——'Qiu Yuan-senior——'

The spiky head stopped the 'Dead Knot' member who was about to say something, and spoke so calmly.

"But please come to me alone."

"Just now, you clearly ignored the injured companion, but now you pretend to be righteous and dignified, who are you doing it to?"

Shokuhou Caoqi, who had recovered his senses, couldn't help but sneered.

"It was just now, and now is now. Since I judged that I couldn't kill you all, it would be a pointless sacrifice to continue. I just made a correct judgment under special circumstances."

The knight uniform is not excited, and the tone has not changed.

And it seems that the other 'Dead Knot' members around him fully accepted his words.

With this level of brainwashing, I really don't know whether to feel sympathy or chill.

Shokuhou Caoqi couldn't help shivering, although brainwashing should have been her specialty.

"You want one person to take all the blame? That's impossible."

Misaka Mikoto frowned and shook her head neatly.

"If you make a mistake, you make a mistake. I have already contacted the security guards. I think they will come here soon. In the future, please reflect on yourself in the juvenile reformatory and try to reform."

"Huh? Just let them go?"

Shokuhou Caoqi couldn't help but be slightly taken aback when he heard the words.

Come on, the other party was determined to kill them just now?Facing an enemy who threatens his vitality, although he has been electrocuted to the point of unconsciousness, he will be locked up in a juvenile reformatory or something...

Are they too cheap?

Of course, she didn't mean to really be 'a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye'.

After all, even though she has witnessed death, Shokuhou Misaki is still just a 14-year-old middle school girl in essence, and she can never do such a thing as killing someone else's life with her own hands.

However, at least let the other party suffer more.

It is necessary to make these people dare not, or can't continue to trouble them.

She didn't want to cause trouble for herself.

"that--"

Just as Shokuhou Caoqi was thinking so awkwardly, a warm air flow suddenly came from her ears, and her sensitive parts were attacked, making her almost jump up.

However, the 'culprit' who caused this incident immediately held her shoulders, as if unaware of her troubles at all, lowered her voice and continued to speak in her ear,

"Actually...I'm almost out of power..."

"Eh--?"

Shokuhou Misaki, who couldn't even care about the strangeness in his ears, widened his eyes with a shocked and confused expression on his face.

"No power"...what does it mean?

The so-called 'Electric Shock' is a person with the ability to generate electricity, and its essence is to manipulate the current, but like the [Lightning Gun] that Misaka Mikoto released before, or the opponent's signature move [Super Electromagnetic Cannon], they are all based on their own release. electric.

That's why Misaka Mikoto's ability was invalidated by the ability of the enemy that could absorb electricity not long ago [Pneumatic Insulation].

Of course, the abilities that can be unleashed are not endless.

Just like long-distance runners cannot run with all their strength 24 hours a day, it is naturally impossible for ability users to release their abilities with all their strength all the time.

Could it be that Misaka Mikoto said 'out of power'... Does it mean that her ability to use is about to reach its limit?
