A Certain Scientific Bee-eater

"...Well, you can go out and fight it, but put this on."

Shokuhou Caoqi took out a wireless earphone from the bag at his waist and handed it to the other party, and said seriously,

"I will help analyze the weakness of that monster from a distance and tell you through it."

Although it was a little embarrassing, Shokuhou Misaki didn't think it was bad, because no one likes a mirror.If Misaka Mikoto was similar in character to her, the two of them might not have an intersection.

She said she wanted to conquer the other party, but if Misaka Mikoto really 'follows her orders' like Junko Hookaze and other faction members, she might feel fresh at the beginning, but it's been a long time. Certainly not as strong as it is now.

Balance and equivalence are important.

It is precisely because the other party has such a personality that no matter what is in front of them, and because Misaka Mikoto is the current Misaka Mikoto, their lives will intersect.

Therefore, Shokuhou Misaki doesn't ask or expect the other party to change. What she expects is the mutual adjustment and adaptation of the two people.

"Although I don't think it is necessary, thank you."

Misaka Mikoto stretched out her hand and took the earphones over. She glanced at it and put it on her ear while smiling and said,

"Then I'll go, Shokuhou, and Miyant. After I lure the dragon away, you can go to a safe place to hide."

"You don't need to say that we will do the same, Misaka-san should worry more about herself."

Shokuhou Misaki folded his arms and snorted softly.

Miyant Ayu, who was next to her, hesitated for some reason, but in the end she didn't say anything.

crackling—

With the sound of a burst of electricity breaking through the air, several blue-white electric arcs appeared between Misaka Mikoto's palm and the opposite wall, and then her whole body rose into the air like a superhero in a movie, breaking through. Leap outside the window.

"...Do you have to go out in such a violent way?"

Shokuhou Misaki moaned while fanning the flying dust with his hands, then glanced at the honey ant Ayu next to him,

"Miant-san, there's still a lot to ask, but let's wait until we're all safe. If you're smart enough, you should know that the two of us can only rely on Misaka-san right now, so—"

"I...I will help!"

Before she could finish speaking, Mitsuya Ayu interrupted her words and nodded again and again.

ps: I feel a bit uncomfortable writing this chapter. It was better to use No.1 pronoun before, but now it becomes a running account when I write it in the third person...

ps2: (Sure enough, if there are more than two people in a scene, I can't grasp it. It seems that I can only hold two people in my eyes)

ps3: The title has nothing to do with the body

38. Big, hard, and hot

crackling—

A bluish-white arc pierced the night sky.

"Big guy, come here, your opponent is me!"

Misaka Mikoto, who came out of the broken window, used electromagnetic force to stick to the wall of the high-rise building next to the mall like a gecko, provoking the giant monster walking on the rooftop of the mall.

However, no matter how she shouted, the enigmatic dragon ignored it, just like a cheetah staring at its prey, using scent or some kind of pheromone to search for the trail of its prey.

"Ignore me? It seems that what Shokuhou said is true, and the dragon is indeed here for Miyant-san. Although this is very concerning, but..."

[Lightning Gun].

The lightning-like arc fired from her bangs fell on the dragon in an instant.

——Because it is usually used to deal with humans, Misaka Mikoto subconsciously controlled the voltage to a level that would make humans faint but not life-threatening.

This level of electricity did not leave a trace on the dragon's green scales.

Roar--

However, it has already achieved what Misaka Mikoto wanted to achieve.

Perhaps feeling pain or strangeness, the monster let out an unpleasant roar, then turned its body with its strong and sturdy limbs, and quickly locked the target on Misaka Mikoto, who was only at the height of its 'wrist'.

The cat-like pupils that turned into full moons in the night glowed dangerously, and scattered fire flickered on both sides of the rough jaws.

"Yes, that's it, come with me!"

Before the monster was ready to spew out that destructive flame again, Misaka Mikoto hurriedly jumped down from the position just now, and then threw out the arc to make herself shuttle through this steel forest like an 'ape'.

Gacha Gacha Gacha.

The dragon scratched the roof with its legs as if to feel the texture underfoot, and it was enough to peel off a fist-thick slab of cement.

Finally, Misaka Mikoto stopped.

This is a dilapidated park, less than [-] meters away from the shopping mall just now, separated by a street.

puff-! !

There was a fierce sound of beating the air overhead, and then tremors erupted from right above.

It was different from Misaka Mikoto, who jumped directly from the several-storey high wall in an extremely brutal way, and then used the magnetic force to slow down.Dragon, spread its wings.

The pair of bat-like wings was really not a decoration added for beauty. Its body left the roof and slowly landed towards the ground, but stopped when it was almost a dozen meters above the ground.

It opened its huge jaws.

call--

The sound of sparks rumbled.

The reappearance of natural disaster-like flames instantly razed the entire park to the ground. A half-meter-deep pit appeared on the charred ground. Within a radius of more than ten meters, the hot and humid air in summer seemed to have turned into a sauna.

but,

"This is no joke."

Long before the flames spewed out of the giant dragon's mouth, several electric lights flickered around Misaka Mikoto's ankles, and countless iron sands on the ground surged towards her feet, lifting her body several meters high in the blink of an eye.

Then, the iron sand was transferred to her palm.

[Sword of Iron Sand], using electromagnetic force to manipulate a large number of iron sand to shape, due to the action of electromagnetic force, vibration will be generated, just like an ultra-high-speed electric chainsaw, which can easily cut steel plates.

Misaka Mikoto threw the [Iron Sand Sword] in her hand like a whip towards the dragon in mid-air. The iron sand, which could have cut through steel plates, collided with the opponent's scales, causing intense sparks.

"It's hard! And has it changed color?!"

Just as the dragon spewed flames downward, its scales gradually turned from green to orange, just like the second form of BOSS in some action games.

Fortunately, Misaka Mikoto didn't expect [Sword of Iron Sand] to really work. Her purpose was actually—

"Hey—it's hot."

He used the [Sword of Iron Sand] as a rope to wrap around the sturdy hind limbs of the giant dragon, and then threw himself onto its back with the help of inertia and electromagnetic force.

After only a few seconds on the discolored scales, the low-heeled leather shoes under Misaka Mikoto's feet almost melted. Fortunately, she reacted in time and used iron sand to create a suspended insulating layer.

"Okay, let's try this, [Lightning Gun] at full power!"

Purple electricity spurted out from Misaka Mikoto's body like a raging ocean wave, and in an instant it spread like a fishing net and enveloped the dragon's entire body.

The opponent is not a human, but a giant dragon as an enemy, and there is no need to keep it.The surrounding air is broken down by the electric current, and the water vapor is broken down by the electric current to produce some kind of unhealthy smelling gas.

This is the real [Lightning Gun].

This attack finally worked, the dragon's wings stopped flapping, and it fell unconsciously from a height of more than ten meters. Although the lantern-sized eyes were still open, the pupils were dim.

"Huh... take it easy."

Misaka Mikoto, who jumped off the dragon, looked refreshed and was about to leave to find Shokuhou and pray for them.

--'Be careful!Misaka-san, that monster is still alive! '

Shokuhou Caoqi's loud reminder came from the earphones.

At the same moment, Misaka Mikoto felt the cold killing intent behind her, and rolled forward like a conditioned reflex, and then,

boom--!

The angry and huge dragon feet landed on the place where she was standing just now, raising a large area of ​​the ground.

ps: I didn’t expect such a small boss (the epic level of the small boss to be strengthened!) to write so many chapters, it seems that I will delete some plots as appropriate...

ps2: Don't think about the title

39. Biohacking

"Okay, then first of all, what is that monster outside?"

After Misaka Mikoto left, Shokuhou Misaki, who stayed on the first floor of the mall, also began to turn his head quickly, trying to analyze information that could help.

There is no doubt that it is a dragon - referring to the shape of the monster.

But this kind of creature is unlikely to be the kind that was found in Europe or some primeval forest and brought back with a rope:

Huge body, sharp fangs, powerful wings, and an unreasonable flaming breath.

This should not exist in reality - at least not now - the ultimate creature imagined by human beings.

However, the dragon's breath is not necessarily as mysterious as in the comics.Although they don't know the anatomy of the monster, they can make a reasonable guess based on the known information.

For example, it may have multiple stomach pockets like a cow, and it can create some kind of flammable substance in its body and set it on fire.

The amount of energy and heat required to maintain that gigantic three-story physique is staggering.

The reason why the dinosaurs, the once-overlords of the earth, will become extinct, and the size of the creatures will gradually evolve from large to small, is to save the intake of food and calories.

However, such a simple guess seems to be unable to explain why the flame has such great power.

After all, they have seen with their own eyes that Dragon Breath can easily melt a metal door like mud, and can also peel away a building like a shelter made of reinforced concrete.

From a biological point of view, it is really difficult, because according to common sense, the flame of more than [-] degrees Celsius will burn the monster itself before it is sprayed out.

but,

Not entirely impossible.

Termites that damage trees and wood don't actually have any internal organs to digest the wood they eat and turn it into nutrients, they do so through symbiosis with protozoa.
