The road to completion starts from the Gate of Truth

Even as she continued to dodge, Shokuhou Misaki was still approaching Mugino Shimori. With such superhuman athletic ability and ability to grasp the battle situation, it was completely impossible to tell that she was still a four-body creature just a minute ago. A physically useless young lady who is not diligent.

"Tch!" Facing Shokuhou Misaki, who had remained unscathed by his violent attacks and was still approaching him, Mugino Shenri's already gloomy face became even gloomier.

But seeing the opponent's spear flashing with flames and cold light, she also knew that if she was approached, there would be no other end than being stabbed to death.

After this [Psychological Mastery] revealed its trump card, the change and contrast was really too great.

Who would have thought that a junior high school girl who had no power at all except mental control would turn into a Valkyrie in the blink of an eye? But the reality has become this. Although Mugino Shenli is very unhappy about this, she is not the kind of brainless fool. Facing the gun-wielding Valkyrie approaching step by step, she has to continue to increase the intensity of her attacks. Retreat step by step, trying to put a longer distance between you and the opponent.

——When Faye is faced with close combat, flying a kite is common sense! But the premise is that the soldier can't fire a light cannon! Boom——! ! ! Just after Shokuhou Misaki avoided a series of beam attacks, taking advantage of the attack gap created by Mugino Shinri's retreat, the gun-wielding girl briefly took a stance, and then, raging flames erupted from the spear in her hand. The gun spewed out from the gun body and turned into a huge pillar of flames several meters in diameter, crushing towards the opponent.

"!!!" Faced with such a sudden long-range attack, Mugino Shenli, who thought the opponent was just a melee fighter, was suddenly frightened and angry. Facing such a large-scale attack, she had no time to dodge.

Since you can't hide, then don't hide! Although Mugino's ability is too violent and difficult to control, so it is most suitable for attack, but this does not mean that she has no defensive moves.

The ambiguous electron cluster between the wave state and the particle state is stretched into a flat-shaped barrier. The high-energy free electrons that can ablate and vaporize all substances are enough to defend against most attacks in this world.

Flame, of course, is no exception.

Phew—— After a short burst, the flame pillar bombardment temporarily retreated. Mugino Shenli lifted the body-sized energy shield in front of him and saw the miserable scene after the flames were raging in front of him.

"Where did this guy get the ability to generate fire? Is she a multi-talented user?! No, could it be that spear..." Mugino Shimari, who had no idea about the existence of spiritual power or a certain store, was very surprised by the sudden change in his painting style. What is the ability that Shokuhou Misaki exerted at this time?

That's just the unscientific mobility. It can be said that the opponent has undergone rigorous training, or that he has used his mental ability to actively lift the brain's subconscious restrictions on movement. There are various possibilities. At most, it can only be said that Shokuhou Misaki's persona of a good-for-nothing sports loser in her usual disguise was very successful and she managed to hide it from everyone.

However, the sudden appearance of the armor and spear, as well as the subsequent fire attack, left Mugino Shenri at a loss.

Let's call it technology. It seems that there is no such technology in Academy City that can materialize things out of thin air. Let's call it ability. People with abilities can only have one kind of ability.

However, no matter what doubts Mugino Shenli had in her heart, she just understood that the Shokuhou Misaki who transformed into a Valkyrie in front of her was no longer the weakling she expected to be easily dealt with, but had become a very powerful one. Tough enemy! ... In the windowless building, Aleister, who was hanging upside down in the life support device, looked at the scene of the two Level 5s fighting in front of him, and mentally evaluated the nature of the power of the newly transformed [Psychological Mastery].

"Brünnhilde? Although it looks like a divine descending possession based on legends and beliefs, it is completely different from the traditional divine descending technology on the magic side. It does not borrow the power of other phases. It is really a magical technology. .

It seems that Tsuchimikado Motoharu and Saten Ruiko used the same technique before! "Because Shokuhou Misaki accidentally talked to himself and said the true name of the heroic spirit in the spirit base, Aleister finally got a glimpse of the essence of Fang Yuan's technology in making spirit bases.

But precisely because he saw clearly the technical nature of creating an energy information body based on legends and beliefs, but not involving other phase powers at all, he became more certain about Fang Yuan's identity as an "outsider".

At the same time, he also thought that if this technology could be popularized, it would also be a means of mass-producing high-end extraordinary combat power, and it would be more stable, more reliable, and more powerful than the superpower system he created. Easy to implant control backhand.

"It seems that we can't push this outsider to the enemy!" PS: The third update is here')331'\u003eChapter 330: Flanda, the daily overturner...

"Have you defended it..." Shokuhou Misaki saw that her unexpected attack was defended by the opponent. Although she felt a little regretful, her goal had been achieved - relying on Mugino Shiri's ability to defend herself. During the gap, she had already gotten close enough! Mugino Shenli also sees this clearly.

"Not good!" Seeing that she had been pulled into the opponent's attack range, Mai Ye Shen Li's heart sank. This was really not good! "Don't worry, I won't kill you, but... I have no psychological barriers to cutting off a few of your limbs!" As she said this, Shokuhou Misaki shook the gun flower and stabbed Mai Ye Shen Li's limbs with the gun without mercy. It seemed that she would cut her into a human stick in the next moment.

"Mai Ye--!!!" A scream came from a distance, and then a rag doll with flames fell right between Shokuhou Misaki and Mai Ye Shen Li, and exploded the moment it landed.

Boom--! A huge air wave hit the two people who were close at hand.

For Shokuhou Misaki, who had a spiritual base, this level of explosion was just a small firework. She didn't even need to defend herself. Her strong body that had surpassed the level of mortals could directly withstand it without any damage.

However, out of caution, Shokuhou Misaki still took a step back to avoid the air waves and dust produced by the explosion - after all, she didn't know if there were other ingredients in the bomb.

However, this also made her lose the opportunity to directly capture Mai Ye Shenli.

As for the other side, Mai Ye Shenli was blown away by the shock wave in the first time, rolling on the ground several times, covered with dust and black ash, and her beautiful clothes were tattered, looking very embarrassed.

However, it was very unexpected that although he was hit by an explosion close to him, Mai Ye Shenli looked like he had no injuries except that he was a little dizzy due to the shock! 　　"Oh? This explosion... is it a special bomb!" 　　Seeing this scene, Shokuhou Misaki immediately understood that the explosion just now was actually launched by another member of Item to rescue Mai Ye Shenli. Although it looked powerful, in fact, apart from the air wave that could blow people away, the real lethality was not great.

"Huh--luckily I made it!" Flanda, who had just completed a fire rescue in the distance, touched her chest, which lacked movement, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thanks to the "life-saving bomb" she made in her spare time, otherwise, she would probably have to watch Mai Ye Shen Li's hands and feet being stabbed by someone today.

"Hmm--" Shaking her head to make her muddled mind clear, Mai Ye Shen Li did not have time to stand up, and immediately activated her ability again, bombarding the direction of Shokuhou Misaki with continuous green beams, trying to drive her away as much as possible.

Just now, if Flanda had not rescued her, she would really be in danger! 　　Well, considering her meritorious service in saving the emperor, I will be a little nicer to her after this mission...　　Thinking so in her heart, Mai Ye Shen Li quickly recovered her own state, and at the same time became more vigilant to Shokuhou Misaki's actions. Once she had any action to launch a big move, she would immediately interrupt it with a ten-fold surging attack.

Moreover, after the attack, Flanda stopped slacking off. Although she herself did not dare to approach the fierce battlefield, the various remote-controlled bombs in the hands of the beret girl also caused a lot of trouble to Shokuhou Misaki.

"Ah, ah, it's really troublesome to fight two against one!" Shokuhou Misaki felt a little regretful. She had just dismissed the people of the faction too early. If she had a helper by her side, she would have probably ended the battle just now.

However, she also knew that her previous decision was not wrong. From the bombing of Mai Ye Shenli just now, it can be seen that if they really let them join the battle, God knows how many casualties there would be! However, even if she had no help, it didn't mean that she couldn't do anything about the little girl playing with bombs behind her! Shokuhou Misaki drove her powerful body that had been completely reborn, jumped up, and dodged a series of attacks from Mai Ye Shenli, and at the same time let her see Flanda hiding behind.

‘Now!’ Silently, the mental control ability of [Psychological Mastery] was activated.

After obtaining the spiritual base, the power from another system not only gave Shokuhou Misaki powerful physical strength, but also greatly enhanced her computing ability.

With the computing power nearly doubled, Shokuhou Misaki's original power that was too powerful to be controlled in detail instantly became much more controllable. Although it was not yet at the point of being as powerful as an arm, she no longer needed to rely on various remote controls to limit and subdivide her abilities.

Now, she only needs a look, a gesture, or even a voice to quietly control the target person's mind completely, and there is no need to worry about problems such as losing control of the ability.

But... Didi - A red light suddenly flashed on a delicate collar worn by Frenda's neck, and Shokuhou Misaki also felt that her ability seemed to hit an indestructible wall and could not get in at all.

‘Mental defense device?’ Shokuhou Misaki immediately understood what she had encountered.

Just a year ago, during her first encounter with Kamijou Touma, she encountered an armed group called "Deadlock" who wanted to kill her. In order to assassinate Shokuhou Misaki, they used a full-face helmet that could block her abilities.

Now, the collar worn around Frenda's neck has the same effect. It seems that it has been upgraded to this more sophisticated model over the past year! "Ah haha! This is the mental defense equipment we specially purchased for this mission. It is aimed at your ability! With it, it will be the same whether you have the Lv.5 [Psychological Mastery] ability or not!" Perception When the collar around her neck sent out a warning signal, Frenda realized that she had almost been controlled by the enemy just now.

However, after seeing that the opponent's attack failed, Flanda, who had always followed the wind and waves, immediately forgot the universal truth that "villains die from talking too much" and jumped out of the hiding place, triumphantly heading towards Shokuhou Misaki shows off her new toy.

"Thank you for reminding me!" After landing, he turned over to avoid another wave of attacks from Mugino Shimori. Shokuhou Misaki turned to look at Flanda. He waved his spear in his hand, and a line of fire shot out from the tip of the gun like a spiritual ray. Like a snake, it drew a zigzag arc in mid-air, spanning a distance of tens of meters in an instant, and passed by Flanda's neck with a "swish" sound.

Feeling the heat waves running across her skin against her neck, Flanda, who had been so proud just now, was instantly frightened to the point of being stiff. Even her beautiful blond hair was burnt off by the fire snake that passed by. Feeling distressed.

Snap——The sound of objects falling was heard.

Flanda, who was trembling all over, stiffened her joints and looked down at her body. She saw that the collar originally worn around her neck had broken and fell to the ground.

Flanda: "...I'm going to die! (⊙﹏⊙)" PS: The remaining updates will be in the evening')332'\u003e Chapter 331 Flanda... rushes to the street!

"Tch! Frenda, you idiot!" Mugino Shenli from a distance naturally saw this scene. In her heart, she was both angry at Shokuhou Misaki for daring to pay attention when facing her, and she also felt angry at Shokuhou Misaki for being distracted when facing her. Franda, a cheater, would cheat others and herself from time to time.

How many times has this happened? ! If it weren't for the fact that there was still a powerful enemy on the side, Mugino and Shenli would have thought about simply using "Atomic Collapse" to kill this scammer in half! Let you show off on the battlefield! Let your mouth reveal key information! I will die ten thousand times for my sake! ! ! ……Flanda didn’t know how angry Mugino Shenli was.

No, she actually knew it - if she still had her own consciousness.

Just after the collar that could defend against mental attacks was destroyed by Shokuhou Misaki, the Queen of [Psychological Control] once again activated her silent mental control ability.

When Mugino Shenli saw the stars shining in Flanda's eyes, her heart sank. Now, the situation really became bad! Of course, a mere "rebellion" by Flanda to the other side would actually have little impact on the combat effectiveness of both sides. What really makes Mugino Shenli feel troublesome is that the confidential information about the items recorded in Flanda's mind is With her being controlled by Shokuhou Misaki, it's hard to say whether it was leaked or not.

"This... guy who succeeds more than fails!" Mugino Shenli cursed again. She was really in a dilemma now.

[Psychological Mastery], which I thought could be easily solved, instantly transformed into a Valkyrie who was invincible in melee combat and could fire light cannons after the battle. After a battle, it was Item's side that was at a disadvantage! If you want to retreat, another core member is controlled by the opponent. Not only does it add a viable fighting force to the opponent, but it also puts the Item at risk of information leakage.

And whether it was to rescue Frenda or simply kill her, the first thing she had to face was the [psychological mastery] whose frontal combat power was so powerful that it was unscientific.

This situation of being unable to advance or retreat can be said to be the first time Mugino Shenri has encountered it in such a long time since he joined ANBU.

... "Now, there are more people on my side!" Shokuhou Misaki teased with some ease as he danced with the spear in his hand, blocking another attack from Mugino Shenli.

"Hmph! Don't get too proud too early! Takitsubo!" The earphones in Mugino's ears had been lost in the previous explosion, so she could only shout loudly to the other side. A hidden companion sent a signal.

"Huh?" Shokuhou Misaki was a little surprised that there was a third person hiding nearby, and at the same time, his somewhat relaxed vigilance immediately tightened again.

The next moment, she knew that her vigilance was indeed correct.

"Hmm - this is... someone is interfering with my ability? Is this the ability of the remaining person in your item?" Shokuhou Misaki could feel that some kind of special power was interfering with the force field diffused through AIM. Concerned with her own [personal reality], there was a crack in her mental control over Flanda.

Flanda's consciousness, which had been completely suppressed, began to struggle simultaneously at this time. Under the attack of the two parties, Shokuhou Misaki's control over the beret girl suddenly became precarious, and she was about to be killed. The other person loses control.

... "Come on, Frenda, get out of here quickly!" On the other side, in an unoccupied house near the battlefield, Takitsubo Rigo, wearing a rustic sportswear, was sweating profusely and sitting on the ground against the wall.

After licking the body crystal, her ability was unprecedentedly enhanced, but it also brought strong side effects to her body. The tingling all over her body, the feeling of powerlessness as if her body was disintegrating bit by bit, every time Takitsubo Riko used the body crystal to enhance her ability, she felt that her body was moving one step closer to destruction.

Not to mention, this time she used her ability on Shokuhou Misaki, who was Lv.5, trying to influence the [personal reality] of a true superpower, which was a heavier burden on her.

However, in order to save her companions, she had to do this! 　　…　　Just when Shokuhou Misaki's ability was disturbed, Mai Ye Shenli saw the opportunity and launched a more intensive offensive again, even taking out the crystal-thin "diffusion support semiconductor" from his pocket, throwing it into the air, launching a large-scale attack with no dead angles in all directions.

'This guy, doesn't care about the lives of his companions? ! '　　Although Shokuhou Misaki's superpowers were affected, her strength based on the spiritual base was not limited.

Although her condition has declined somewhat due to the interference of [Personal Reality], with her current inhuman physical fitness and strong physical instincts, combined with the flames released on the surface of her body by the [Magic Release (Fire)] skill to form a shield, she can still easily hold on under this almost desperate screen-clearing attack.

However, Frenda, who is controlled by Shokuhou Misaki, is completely different.

Although Shokuhou Misaki can no longer accurately control Frenda's consciousness due to Takitsubo Rikou's interference, and can't even control her to move, Frenda herself has not completely broken free from her ability. In the stalemate, she is like a piece of wood standing in place.

If she was not far away from Mai Ye Shi Li and Shokuhou Misaki, most attacks would not be able to reach her. With just Mai Ye Shi Li's ruthless screen-clearing attack, our Frenda probably couldn't even do Fufida, and could only become a mosaic.

Even so, the aftermath of the occasional attack that was poured here affected the surrounding buildings, and the brick and stone fragments that fell down fell on Flanda, still smashing her head with blood, and she fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

When Mai Ye Shen Li finally ended the screen-clearing attack that lasted for more than ten seconds, both sides looked at the opponent who was still standing in the field and the pit guy who fell to the street, and couldn't help but look at each other in silence.

Mai Ye Shen Li: "..." Shokuhou Misaki: "..." So, what is this guy here for? 　　... After bursting out with all his strength, looking at the target in front of him who was still unharmed, Mai Ye Shen Li had to admit that the current [Psychological Mastery] was indeed not an opponent that the current Item could take down.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, between the two options of continuing to fight until a winner was decided and admitting defeat and temporarily retreating, Mai Ye Shen Li finally chose the latter helplessly.

"...Retreat!"... Shokuhou Misaki did not stop Maiyano Senri from taking away the already defeated Frenda. Although she seemed to have won this encounter, she had not forgotten the phone call from the "Saigong Workshop" before the battle.

She was intercepted by Item, and the workshop also encountered a powerful enemy. Now it is very likely that they have all fallen.

In order to confirm the situation of the "external brain" that is crucial to her, Shokuhou Misaki is rushing to the "Saigong Workshop" and has no time to continue to entangle with the people of Item.

')333'\u003eChapter 332 Shokuhou Misaki Seeking After-sales Service

"So, did the mission to capture [Psychological Mastery] fail?"　　"Yes, yes.

According to the report of Item, [Psychological Mastery] suddenly transformed during the battle, showing extremely powerful melee ability and the ability to release and control high-temperature flames. After injuring a member of Item, he escaped safely."

Kihara Gensei listened to the report of his subordinates, his expression uncertain.

He did think that Shokuhou Misaki had some powerful trump card, but he never thought that this trump card would be so strong! 　　The original Shokuhou Misaki, except for the [Psychological Control] ability that can be targeted and blocked by special equipment, is essentially just a weak lady. If there is no "bee swarm" around her that can be used by her, she can be controlled by a few strong men.

However, the current Shokuhou Misaki has obtained the special power that flows out of that store, and has gained a powerful direct combat ability, which completely makes up for the shortcomings. It can be said that there is no flaw at all.

It will become a difficult task to plan her power in the future! 　　"So, how is the [external brain]?"　　Although the result of Shokuhou Misaki's mission was not ideal, Kihara Gensei had not given up hope and continued to ask about the situation on another battlefield.

"The members of Item had completely defeated the defense of the 'Caigongfang', but after the defeat on the other side of the battlefield, [Psychological Mastery] quickly arrived at the scene. Because of the difference in combat power, the members of Item had to retreat."

The subordinates in black suits reported the completion of the monitored tasks truthfully.

"... In other words, both tasks were not completed!" There was no joy or anger in Kihara Gensei's voice, but those who were familiar with him knew that the old man was on the verge of anger.

"Item... What a waste!" ... Ding ding ding - The door of "There is a shop" was pushed open again, and a girl's voice came from behind the door: "Lord Shokuhou, this shop It's such a...suspicious store, so don't go in! If you need anything, just let us do it for you!" "No, just wait outside. I have something to discuss with the store manager here."

"But..." "That's it!" "Yes..." Snap - The store door closed, and the girl with long honey-colored hair approached the counter as she did the last time she came, walking with elegant ladylike steps. , looking at the seemingly ordinary store manager sitting behind the counter.

"Oh, isn't this the 'Queen' of Tokiwadai? She actually came here for the second time after visiting the store, which really makes our store shine!" Fang Yuan raised his head as if he just saw the person coming. With the same identity, he used an extremely hypocritical tone and said exaggerated polite words, which made Shokuhou Misaki feel goosebumps all over his body.

"... Mr. Store Manager is really funny!" Shokuhou Misaki could only laugh awkwardly twice, and then hurriedly changed the topic: "Ahem! Well, I came today because I want to thank the store. Mr. Chang, your previous gift! Thanks to the spiritual foundation you gave me, I was able to survive a crisis."

Saying this, Shokuhou Misaki bowed slightly.

Although Shokuhou Misaki still has doubts about the store manager who indirectly saved her life, the grace of saving her life is indeed real. She is not a ungrateful person, so she naturally knows how to be grateful, so After finishing the follow-up affairs of the "Talented Labor Room", I took the time to come to this store and made a special trip to say thank you.

"...I feel grateful for this thank you. Seeing that this spiritual foundation can work in your hands, I, the creator, feel honored."

Fang Yuan nodded, accepted Shokuhou Misaki's thanks, and then asked: "So, how do you feel about using the power of this spirit base?" Although both Brynhild and Shokuhou Misaki have Fang Yuan had the experience of not getting what he asked for in love, so he gave this spiritual foundation to Shokuhou Misaki out of some bad taste. However, in actual use, he still had to ask the person involved to decide whether it was suitable or not. .

"It's very useful!" Talking about the power of this spirit base, even though he had some doubts about the existence of hidden hands in it, the power it displayed in the battle really made Shokuhou Misaki very satisfied.

"But, I have a question. Why does the power of this spirit base have the concept of 'the stronger the love in the heart, the stronger the power', and 'the stronger the love for someone, the more you want to kill him'." "Definitely, is this your bad taste, store manager?" Well, although these spirit bases were created by Fang Yuan after traveling to this world, and they have nothing to do with the heroic spirits in the Xingyue world, but for the sake of The idea of ​​being faithful to the original version was also due to Fang Yuan's inability to make adjustments. The ability panels in most spirit bases were basically the same as those of the heroic spirit servants in the Xingyue World.

As for Brynhildr's Heroic Spirit Spirit Base, it happened to have such a deceptive special setting. When Fang Yuan first created it, he was too lazy to change it because it was too troublesome. Finally, when he saw Shokuhou Misaki , due to some indescribable reason of the will of the universe, he turned the spirit base into a card and handed it to her.

Now, Shokuhou Misaki, who discovered something was wrong, came to find an explanation.

"Ahem! Well... look, aren't you the strongest spiritual superpower [psychological mastery]? You should be very good at adjusting your emotions, right? I think this kind of power increases tremendously with specific emotions. , it should complement your own superpowers.”

This is the truth. Fang Yuan did consider this issue when he chose the spiritual base.

On the one hand, she must choose a spiritual base that can make up for the shortcomings of Shokuhou Cao, and on the other hand, the power of this spiritual base must have a positive correlation and promotion effect with her own super power. Choose over and over again, and finally make it. I chose the spiritual base of a heroic spirit like Brynhildr.

Of course, it is not ruled out that he has the idea of ​​"wanting to see if Shokuhou Misaki will stab Kamijou Touma to death who always forgets her"... "..." Although because there is no way Shokuhou Misaki can read Fang Yuan's mind, so it's impossible for Shokuhou Misaki to know what is really thinking in his heart. However, due to a girl's intuition, Shokuhou Misaki is sure that this store manager is definitely not telling the truth - at least not completely. truth! However, after experiencing the power of spirit bases, Shokuhou Misaki also understood that Fang Yuan, who could mass-produce such terrifying power as "spiritual bases" and give them away to others, was stronger than her. There are many things that the other party doesn't want to say, so it's useless no matter how hard she tries.

Therefore, she no longer pursued the issue, but changed the subject and asked: "So, store manager, do you have a way to separate this spiritual essence from my body?" The third update is here') 334'\u003eChapter 333: Meeting and Killing

Jingle Bell—— The clear bell rang, and the store door opened. The members of the faction waiting outside saw Shokuhou Misaki walking out intact, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

It seems that there is indeed nothing wrong with this store... "Let's go!" Shokuhou Misaki waved his hand, calling for everyone to follow, and then left here without looking back.

"Um...Shokuhou-sama, is your business not going well?" A young girl asked with concern when she saw that Shokuhou Misaki's expression was not very good.

"...No, things are going well!" Shokuhou Misaki said so, but her somewhat gnashing expression showed that things were completely different from what she said.

However, since she refused to say anything, the others had no way to force her to speak, so the matter was left unresolved.

However, at this moment, Shokuhou Misaki had endless resentment towards the damn store manager.

"Separate? It's impossible to separate, it's impossible to separate in this life!" This was what Fang Yuan said after she made the request, which undoubtedly blocked her idea of ​​separating the spirit base.
