Academy City Temperature Control

At least in the eyes of many passers-by, it was unusual to see students from Tokiwadai at this point.

However, considering that even Natsume Sonoko herself is not sure what the next step of the plan should be, she will not consider this obvious contradiction for the time being.

As the distance between them and Feng Zhan became more and more distant, from being separated by a street to being separated by half a school district, the two girls gradually integrated into their current roles.

From the snack bar to the roadside stall, from the roadside stall to the mobile food truck, the two poor girls looked at each other from time to time, but they stopped when they thought of their poor wallets, and at the same time a feeling of sympathy arose in their hearts. Strange emotions.

But after all, as a support staff member of the team, the girl named Index still worked hard to hold up her chest and took out a pitifully small amount of large coins from the lining of the nun's uniform.

The source of the girl Index's funds is very simple, part of it is given by Touma, and part of it is picked up on the road.

She doesn't have any scholarships to get, and she is one of the three no-ones in Academy City.

As for the place where the little nun works, she is not paid at all. She can take care of two meals a day at most. Occasionally, she can get a little tip from a kind-hearted elder sister.

"Boss, two teppanyaki dishes."

Index raised her head stubbornly and said firmly.

Although it is unclear how the superpowers in Academy City got to this point, it also gave Index some room to show off.

Whether it was to provide funds for activities by pretending to be an ordinary passerby, or to save Yuanzi's barren and thin figure, she did everything she could.

"That's great, Index is so reliable."

A happy smile appeared on his fair and smooth face. A certain meatball head took another snack from the boss's hand with a satisfied expression. The fried rice noodles just now were completely unable to satisfy Natsume's stomach.

Thanks to Index, Natsume Sonoko may be able to replenish her body fat today.

I heard that eating in the morning and noon does not actually accumulate excess fat. It is only at night or before going to bed that it is most likely to accumulate fat.

For a girl who needs to gain weight, this kind of knowledge needs to be paid attention to. In addition, her appetite is not large, so the timing of gaining weight becomes important.

Moreover, based on some of the experience gained from Shokuhou-senpai, sleeping after eating, eating when hungry, lying down instead of standing, and basking in the sun after meals can also help alleviate Natsume Sonoko's current weight loss crisis. .

Similarly, given Natsume-san's current financial situation, in addition to going to the Disciplinary Committee branch to enjoy the autumn breeze, it would also be a good choice to attend more tea parties organized by Shokuhou-senpai and the others.

But those things don't matter now, the feeling of having a treat with friends is very satisfying.

By the way, Tsuchimikado-san will be here to deliver a nutritious lunch box at noon, and I will eat it with Index then.

Speaking of which, Tsuchimikado-san's brother lives very close to Kamijou-senpai. Tsuchimikado-san also helps Kamijou-senpai clean the house. Index has long been familiar with Tsuchimikado-san.

"If we really find a way for Feng Zhan to live a normal life, what will the guys behind the scenes do? Will more disturbing things happen?"

"Because I know what may be involved behind the scenes, there is a high probability that Feng Zhan-san will not be able to escape the other party's control. The best case scenario is to fight for Feng Zhan-san to be able to live freely in the real world."

Thinking about something silently, the classmate Wan Zitou with a smile on his face couldn't help but be in a trance.

Behind Feng Zhan's classmates, he may have touched Academy City's deepest secret.

Combining some related urban legends and the information obtained from Feng Zhan classmate, Natsume-san can probably guess that the so-called aim force field phase is probably the Imaginary School District and the Five Elements Agency, which is also the rumored original research institute of Academy City.

Unknowingly, Natsume Sonoko has penetrated into the deepest secrets of Academy City, and may have some kind of interaction with some groups that rule Academy City.

There is no saying whether it is worth it or not. If you know it is difficult and don’t do it, then simply don’t change anything.

"It feels so troublesome. I always feel like I'm about to meet someone awesome."

"But no matter how powerful a person is, it is wrong to restrict or imprison an innocent person like that."

Soothing the panic and tension hidden in his heart, a certain ball head tried to keep himself calm, but he didn't have much thought about changing his mind.

In the final analysis, Natsume-san's original intention was just to help his friends, and he did not consider the possible situations he might encounter.Once the determination and enthusiasm at that time cooled down a little, she had to think about some things that might happen and the identity of the opponent she encountered.

This is probably the recent growth that Natsume-san has experienced.

After having more contact with Shokuhou-senpai, she also knows that many things don't actually make sense, and are more of a compromise and exchange.

Shokuhou-senpai exchanged Kihara Gensei with Academy City in exchange for protection that would be beneficial to them to some extent.

She didn't know the specific situation, but she heard that there was help from Senior Sister Kumokawa Seria.Now, the original incident has been completely covered up, and only a few people know the inside story.

The few of them continued to live in school as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened.

"If I can master the power to control the aim force field, maybe it will become more valuable."

The pupils under the gauze of a certain man's head flashed with light, and he suddenly thought of something.

Although she doesn't care about things like power, just like being a superpower, sometimes its value cannot be ignored.

Unlike some people with super powers who want to gain leverage over the governing council to bargain, the idea of ​​a certain meatball head is still so simple and naive.

...

The outer edge of Academy City is a towering city wall with drone hangars and automatic turrets arranged above it. A large number of special-type security robots equipped with infrared and other detection tools are patrolling at any time.

In the current generation where ultra-long-range firepower is prevalent, the role of city walls has been infinitely reduced, and even exists only as a tourist attraction in most places.

As for the base camp on the science side, the main function of this ancient city wall model is to restrict the circulation of internal and external personnel, forming a huge 'prison' called Academy City.

However, since there is such a term as 'prison', then Miss Maple Wind, who ignored various warnings and heavy firepower and came to Academy City to do something, is probably the so-called intruder.

The outer walls of Academy City have been damaged, and the figure of the intruder, Zhifeng, has long since disappeared from the peripheral surveillance cameras.

In addition to some weird tentacle monsters, some strangely dressed magicians also followed the wind from ahead and came to Academy City.

Not far away from this city, in order to cope with the Fangzhifeng and others who entered Academy City, a magic force from the Roman Orthodox Church was also ready, and would choose whether to start a full-scale war with Academy City according to orders at any time.

All in all, while Natsume-san is still busy saving her friends, this strange world seems to be heading towards a sad future.

It's just a pity that the commercial building that Natsume's classmate's family just bought may be about to face a plummeting crisis.

I hope that the small toy company has enough healthy capital flow to survive this huge challenge.

Chapter 492 Half Dimension and Miracle

The real universe that everyone in Academy City is familiar with seems to have always been limited to the three-dimensional level, that is, a three-dimensional world composed of three coordinate axes: length, width, and height.

Few people can prove whether the fourth dimension and beyond actually exist.

Among some widely circulated information, only the eleventh dimension, that is, the eleventh dimension, is something that clearly exists.

The proof of this point is the so-called space ability users. They can perform position transformation to a certain extent by communicating with the eleven dimensions.Next to Natsume Sonoko, there is a girl who can move in space.

However, dimensions and dimensions are just theories on the scientific side, and even Natsume Sonoko may not agree with this view.

Especially after she acquired the pseudo-omniscient ability that has huge limitations and is based on her own cognition.

She did not see parallel universes that could be bent and stretched at will like membranes, nor did she see a multiverse that brought together parallel universes. There was no infinite multiverse community, just a bare and extremely sad single universe. .

This monotonous form of the universe does not conform to any grand and bizarre worldview setting at all. Even the "nothing" outside the universe seems small and closed.

In other words, Natsume-san cannot 'see' the existence of the fourth dimension, including perhaps some guys who are so ridiculously powerful that their energy can explode the universe.

As for the miraculous creations that are parasitic in the real universe, such as phases, Natsume-san cannot compare them with the so-called dimensions. Instead, they are like an irrational appendage of a single universe full of "human" attributes, even in a certain place. To a certain extent, it does expand the 'width' of the universe.

So, whether this fourth dimension is time or some kind of measurement unit for measuring parallel universes, as long as no one really discovers it, it means it does not exist for everyone.

Even people like Natsume-san can only accept this obvious and too simple form of the universe.

However, according to certain theories and existing knowledge based on entropy, the current universe is probably the most energy-efficient, or it is just in its infancy.

That Mr. God of Creation, who somehow exists or not, seems to be just a poor designer with low level.

But here we should probably mention the setting of dimensions. It is not surprising that the theory of dimensions can be summarized. However, Academy City scientists know that the space movers are actually communicating with the eleven dimensions. So this definition is ten Where does the one-dimensional theoretical basis or evidence come from?

Without raising the issue of whether dimensions really exist, it is unimaginable that people with abilities can perceive high-dimensional information.

To put it simply, even though Two-dimensional paper people can be interfered and influenced in various ways by three-dimensional people, they have no way of knowing this, and all of this was accomplished by Academy City in the form of ability users.

This only shows one thing, the personal reality of the ability user can randomly generate a path to the high-dimensional world.

Chapter 492: Prey

Before the Daidaiji Group's toy empire has been established, it will face the ruthless backstabbing of real magical girls.

Whether it is the rise or fall of land prices or the foreseeable depreciation of the magical girl brand, it may gradually rise to a level that makes the toy company unsustainable, seriously damaging the company's future market and prospects.

But compared to a ferocious girl who is aggressive, bad and religious at the same time, this little thing will only bring trouble to a certain meathead.

The blood-red tongue spits out a silver tongue ring, and a chain with a cross hangs down.

The dense rings on his face also trembled slightly with the movements. Even if he didn't deliberately make a ferocious expression, his whole person looked full of distortion and twisting. This was a kind of visual aggression.

The white light emitted by these rings, coupled with the destroyed buildings around them, seemed to have a strange contrast.

Stopping in place, the girl in front of the girl maintained a kind of calmness and indifference, looking down at a certain executive council member who had no breath.

Each member of the Overarching Council manages a part of Academy City's institutions and functions, which is equivalent to part of Academy City's head. From the perspective of the front, killing these people is enough to disrupt Academy City's ruling class.

Something strange flashed in her eyes, as if she was looking for the next prey.

Fantasy Killer, Catalog of Forbidden Arts, the General Council, the Kihara Clan... until the end of the prey list, perhaps a few names of superpowers can be added.

Ordinary girls like Natsume Sonoko who have just been promoted, are not famous and don't have much information leaked out, will obviously not be the target of the front wind, unless some multi-faceted spy or Academy City actively leaks information about Maruko-head.

In fact, her prey were also alert enough.

For example, the member of the General Council who was killed by him also lived in a bunker more than 100 meters underground. He could not kill him until the defense facilities were completely destroyed.

But the biggest problem she faced now was not how to break through the opponent's defense, but how to find the traces of her prey.

Even with the cooperation of the Roman Orthodox intelligence network, she could not easily find the location of some people, especially the existence of Fantasy Killer, which was completely immune to all kinds of divination and prediction magic.

But if the other party takes the initiative to come to you, it will be another result.

"Escape as much as you want. If I find you, you will have no choice but to die."

"It doesn't matter who you start with, the final result will not be changed anyway. These people probably don't know what they are facing yet."

A crazy smile appeared on the face of the front man, and the murderous intent in his eyes could not be calmed down no matter what.

This murderous intention is not directed at any individual individual, but is a heartfelt dislike of science.

She hated following the cold laws of nature. If there was only magic in the world, a world where everyone could be saved would be complete, instead of being able to save only one person when encountering death.

She is obviously so bright and beautiful, but she has turned into a look that makes people hate and reject her at the first sight. The repressed emotions carried by the wind in front have never been let go.

Chapter 493 Almost burned out

Because of the differences in cognition and personality, coupled with the huge differences in everyone's circumstances, it is destined to be impossible to achieve a world of true mutual understanding.

So in this pessimistic reality, only strength can determine the differences caused by all differences.

Whether it is the spark of destiny formed by phase friction, or the demon god overlooking the world from above, the difference between all living beings and them is probably only the difference in power, and they can even arrange the universe at will according to their own ideas.

For such an important power, a certain girl who was just getting along was still unable to arouse any more desire. She just followed reality and experience and constantly corrected her attitude to adapt to her urgent needs.

However, rather than pursuing some empty and boring power that only has practical significance when compared with other people and things, the girl named Natsume Sonoko probably cares more about the ability user itself, or exploring more on the path of the ability person. possibility.

For example, the previous discussion about using power as a bargaining chip made her feel depressed and uncomfortable.

All her summaries of personal reality and formulas, all her joy at the increase in computing power, can get rid of the layers of false shells and evolve into an exploration of the possibilities of capable people. Her positioning of herself should at least be Is a seeker.

Eh.

Having said that, what is Tao? Is it just the path of the capable?

Why did such an idea suddenly appear?

Binding many thoughts into a straight line, a strong desire for knowledge that seemed to have been suppressed in his heart emerged in Natsume-san's head.

This seemed to be his true thoughts, and it seemed to be incompatible with his lazy self. Natsume Sonoko, who was busy peeling off classmate Fengzhan Hyouka and exploring the truth, was speechless. Even the snacks in her hands became odorless. Became ordinary.

She was getting weirder and weirder, and she was a little at a loss.

When she "concentrated" on monitoring and studying Feng Zhan Hinghua's classmate in the distance, she felt that she had vaguely ignored the other person's "human" attributes, and instead was immersed in the other person's gorgeous, wonderful, and all-encompassing force field. constitute the above.

This was a terrible thing for her to do because it was rude and it was not in line with her values.

Is it because the possibility of being an absolute capable person in the other person is attracting her?

In other words, she is this kind of person. She is a curious person from the bottom of her heart.Facing Misaka-senpai's crazy rampage, she was intent on collecting the precious data that the other party had escaped, but she was disdainful of the power of the accessories.

Maybe she is no different from some scientific researchers, but she didn't know how to move forward before.

"What's wrong Sonoko? Does it smell weird?"

Seemingly seeing the change in someone's expression, the little nun Index put her arm on a certain ball head and asked with some concern.From the beginning, she has always treated the girls around her as people with limited mobility.

Although Natsume Sonoko is suspected of being able to monitor the traces of an uncertain girl several kilometers away, in Index's eyes, Sonoko is still a wounded person who needs to be taken care of.
