The walker from Xingyue, Demon King Rimuru!

"It's very simple, that's right... But I still say that, this number itself determines the value of starting." Limulu hooked the corner of his mouth, and said with a chuckle: "Student Shirai, you can keep this number, wait a minute For the first time, you have found a demand with greater value, and this demand is enough for you to come up with the conditions that make our heart beat before you contact me."

"Or, you directly take out enough chips to make me act."

"...Ah, so you just want me to sign a contract with your research institute..." Shirai Heizi squinted his eyes, but signed with such an unknown guy?She is not stupid, how is it possible!

"It's true that I have such a need, but I also understand that for you, Shirai, there is no need to choose us, and even the unknown risks are not enough to be offset by changing the dormitory."

Limulu said lightly: "How about this, I will help you change the dormitory, but you have to sign an agreement with me."

"What agreement?" Shirai Heizi was slightly taken aback, keenly aware of the danger.

"It's very simple, I just need you to promise that if you need to conduct experiments and ability development before graduating from Tokiwadai in the future, you will definitely choose my experimental institution first—" Limuru lightly bared his fangs: "Said To be more specific, that is, unless there is a necessary reason, otherwise ... you can not cooperate with other institutions outside our institution in front of our institution."

"..." Heizi Shirai hesitated after hearing that, "I need to think about it."

"Yes, my phone number can be dialed 24 hours a day, just call me if you have anything to do." Limulu heard that, when he felt that the other party was a little inclined to hang up, he suddenly chuckled and said: "Yes Anything, Shirai-san."

……

Beep beep... The busy tone on the phone had been blinking for a while, Shirai Heizi threw the phone aside, and suddenly became curious about this institute and its people.

Thinking about the other party's conditions, a trace of confusion flashed across her face.

That guy seems to be sure that he will definitely find an outside institution to develop his ability... Why?Is it because one's ability must rely on external institutions at certain stages?

"Sure enough, I still have to get rid of Chuchun and check it out!!"

Shirai Kuroko jumped up suddenly, found a business card again, and dialed Chuchun Shili's number.

……

On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Limulu looked at Miyi Aiyu who was revealing a touch of curiosity, then put down the phone and said: "I've been waiting for a long time, let's go, I might go to a place you are familiar with next. "

"Eh? Me?"

"Well, Cairenfang, can you?" When Limuru said the name, he could clearly see a momentary change in Miyi Aiyu's eyes, and a flash of pain flashed through. But soon, she still After adjusting his mood, he nodded and said, "I'm fine."

Even though she said that, she was obviously not very interested, which showed that she was still very resistant to that place.

"You should be happy, because we are going to kick the field this time." Seeing the other party's expression, Limulu couldn't help softening his voice, and patted her on the head.

The purpose of going to the Talent Workshop this time is actually to obtain the research materials and development files for Ayumi, as well as some development records about Shokuhou Misaki—because Aleister doesn’t mind fighting against him in the future. The magic side has more chips, so even though Li Mulu didn't pay much this time, she easily got the permission to transfer the data.

Yes, this time Limulu was not strictly kicking the museum, because he took the order from above to go to the talent workshop to carry out the normal data transfer.

But the problem is, the reason why Aleister agreed so easily is probably because the order is worthless.

As we all know, the current Talent Workshop can no longer be ordered by a single order in the name of Aleister. All the staff in it have been brainwashed by Shokuhou Misaki. honeycomb!

Therefore, it is also true that Limuru said that he was kicking the restaurant, because this time, he is likely to face Shokuhou Misaki-for this, after Limuru reconfirmed the ability of the great sage, he set up a Counting to the mental barrier——

Shokuhou Misaki is a very interesting Lv5. In addition to the tragic past that made Limuru sympathize with her in her previous life, it is also because she is the only existence that repeatedly jumps between powerful and useless.

The explanation of Lv5's psychological control in the scientific community is to control the water in the brain, thereby controlling bioelectricity and the like to achieve the effect of modifying consciousness.

This explanation cannot be said to be wrong, but he also involved a question of precedence.

In fact, in Limulu's view, the influence of magic is definitely idealism, and it is produced by using spiritual power. Even today, many magics can indeed be referred to by scientific principles. For example, in modern magic, Limuru once Water pressure, friction, decomposition, nuclear fission, etc. have been mentioned, but there is another crucial dividing line between magic and science.

That is the sequence.

Under science, nuclear fission is caused by a certain method that causes nucleons to split, thereby releasing huge amounts of energy.

Under magic, it is because you want to release a huge amount of energy, which causes the nucleus to split.

But when it comes to Shokuhou Misaki, it becomes under science. You can understand that she changes the opponent's consciousness by manipulating water molecules to change the bioelectricity, but under the understanding of magic, it should be After the opponent changed his consciousness through magical distortion, the manifestations in the world were changes in water molecules and bioelectricity.

From the results point of view, there is actually no difference between the two statements, because science and magic lead to the same goal in the end, and the truth is the truth. As long as the distortion produced by magic can be expressed, it will be expressed in a reasonable form of the world, and science is through observing the world. The existence of the form of expression leads to the result that the existence is reasonable.

Well, so, when Limuru thought about this, at first he was just curious about whether magic such as his mind barrier could defend against psychological mastery—but in the end, he came up with an accurate answer.

The answer is yes, and the conclusions are those above.

And this also made Limulu feel that psychological control is actually a valuable ability or magic to study, at least in the world view of the forbidden world, it is very interesting.

And this is one of the reasons why he chose Miyi Aiyu as his first subordinate.

So, after Rimuru summoned the reluctant Yubia Taki with a phone call, Rimuru led the two into the talent workshop—but at this time, what he didn't know was that Shokuhou Misaki In fact, he was frowning while looking at some of his information.

Two days ago, the higher-ups suddenly issued an order to hand over the data. Although it was nominally normal because after the experiment was completed, the generality test of other analog experiments would be carried out, but Shokuhou Misaki still felt that it was not normal.

Whether the order is normal or not is the next thing. The most important thing is Shokuhou Misaki's own belief. She believes that psychological control, or the ability of the psychological department should exist in the hands of noble people. If this ability is abused, it will definitely would be quite dangerous.

Therefore, she cannot allow the technology related to her to be abused, which is one of the reasons why she controls the talent workshop.

In particular, although most of Rimuru's information has been hidden, his recent behavior and even the records of participating in experiments on the surface, and the contacts of the organization, almost all show that he seems to have a deep cooperation with the Kihara clan.

Moreover, his identity and the files in the library are hidden as if they do not exist, and Shokuhou Misaki also knows what this means.

Anbe, or...the person who walks in the darkness of Academy City.

This made her instinctively feel good about Limuru, but she definitely had to add a label of [untrustworthy].

Those that can survive in the dark, even if they are not bad, definitely do not belong to the light.

Shokuhou Misaki and Misaka Mikoto are so naive that they didn’t understand the difference in the existence of darkness until later. She had encountered darkness a long time ago and experienced darkness. She will definitely forget her price... She probably has been completely turned into a wisp of dust in the darkness of Academy City long ago.

She intends to directly brainwash and control the other party, pretending to agree and then see what happens next.

It is definitely impossible to refuse. Brainwashing the other party to go back or refusing will only reveal the fact that this place has been controlled by her.

Soft blond hair cascaded down her back, Shokuhou Misaki supported her face with her arms in lace white gloves, and yawned sleepily.

She changed her posture, raised her legs in lace and white silk, and after lightly crossing them, she narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Ahh... I really want to eat donuts... I really want to drink milk tea... But if I eat it again, today's calories will exceed the standard again..."

While thinking about it, she casually glanced at Limulu's information for the tenth time, and when she lay back indecently, Fanfeng Runzi's knock on the door came out the next moment. It made her sit up straight almost reflexively, and put on an elegant and queen-like posture.

……

Before Limuru saw Shokuhou Misaki, the first-level alarm of the firewall in his mind had already been activated. With a slap, only he could feel the sting like an electric current, and Limuru's golden eyes flashed instantly. A series of data streams can already be regarded as being able to withstand the opponent's attack, so while the great sage simply analyzed this ability, Limulu squinted his eyes and followed the direction of the opponent's ability activation, keenly looked at it directly.

It was the escalator on the second floor not far from the empty reception hall in front of them. Shokuhou Misaki's exquisite face showed a little bit of astonishment at this time, as if he didn't understand why his ability failed to activate.

"I have admired your name for a long time, Your Highness the Queen of Tokiwadai." Soon, Limuru, who had obtained the magic of psychological control, raised the corners of her mouth in a happy mood, and took the lead in greeting: "As far as I know, the person in charge of receiving me The person in charge of the workshop should not be you, right? Is it not good to use abilities on others when we meet for the first time?"

"Ah?"

Although Shokuhou Misaki, who has no psychological control, is indeed a waste in combat, but the opponent's psychological construction is obviously extremely strong. Even if she faces the failure of her ability, after Limuru's speech, her astonishment is only a slight flash. , raised his eyebrows, showed a haughty smile, and instantly showed an extremely powerful queen's aura: "I'm really sorry, I'm a suspicious person, and my opponents have to look at their brains to feel at ease, let alone Said to be a more suspicious fake."

"Sa, it's our first time meeting... I'm Shokuhou Misaki."

Chapter 025, the poor are not worthy of talking about ideals, how can you understand the despair of the weak

"Miss Ben has finished the introduction, so where are you from?"

Shokuhou Misaki rested her chest with one hand, tapped her chin with the other hand, and looked down at the three of them.

"Oh……?"

Hearing this, Rimuru, who was looking at Shokuhou Misaki, raised the phone in his hand lightly: "I thought Miss Shokuhou Misaki, you had already received the order from above."

"Ah... that order is really easy to forge, right?" Shokuhou Misaki raised her white gloves with lace, picked up the remote control to cover her mouth, and made a scared expression Said: "What's more, even if the order is true, if you hand over the information without confirming the identity of the person who came, if something goes wrong, then it will not be my problem."

As she was talking, she raised her other hand to gently smooth her hair, and when she brushed her hair, her expression changed from weak and frightened to arrogant and indifferent in an instant: "Ordinary people, really Can you resist my psychological control?"

"Sa, sir, can you tell me... which one of the seven are you?"

"Unfortunately I don't belong to any of them."

"However, I have seen with my own eyes how several of them have grown to their current status." Limulu smiled and turned his face: "Although I just joined and made no contribution, I am indeed the first main person in charge at present. .”

"My name is Limulu, Limulu Tempest. Others like to call me a tyrant, but I don't really like this title." Limulu stretched out his hand, and a stream of water began to flow in this space. The surroundings became moist, and soon formed a white mist of air-conditioning and frost: "Shokuhou Misaki, looking at you, do you mean that you intend to disobey the order of the master of this city?"

Shokuhou Misaki heard the words, and suddenly frowned slightly on her pretty face, and she could tell that the other party seemed to be serious.

As long as you dare to say yes, the other party will definitely do it without hesitation——Thinking of this, Shokuhou Misaki subconsciously glanced at the current security force of the entire Talent Workshop and the two people following behind Rimuru. girl.

She was thinking about whether she could stop or subdue Limuru with these combat powers. After all, when her abilities were ineffective against the enemy, she herself was an idiot in combat. She couldn't even do sports well, let alone fight. It's hair pulling between girls, and she may not be able to pull each other's hair.

However, this does not mean that she is really powerless. After all, it is only the other party who is immune to her own ability, but the other party and the people around her can still be affected and manipulated by her ability——

As for the title of tyrant, Shokuhou Misaki frowned, and finally felt a little familiar in his impression.

It's just that the professionals she hired for Anbu are not here at present, and she can only interpret it literally, thinking that the other party is a guy with a high status and who likes to solve problems violently.

Ability related to ice?In this way, it is already certain that the other party is not one of the seven like himself?

If this is the case, then it should only be someone with great ability... Thinking that the other party is only Lv4, Shokuhou Misaki's confidence soared almost all at once.

Although she has no fighting power at this time, Fanfeng Runzi beside her is also a powerful person, not to mention that such a big talent workshop is not something that a mere lv4 can break in and do whatever he wants.

However, even if you are full of confidence, you can't turn your face openly: "Ah, ah, is it your favorite style to put such high hats on others at will?"

Shokuhou Misaki smiled lightly and blinked her starry eyes: "Violation of the order? Oh, is it possible that in your order, is there any item in your order that states that I, Shokuhou Misaki, need to give way to you?"

Belonging to Aleister's subordinates, the one who needs to carry out orders is Saijen Workshop, what do I care about Shokuhou Misaki?

"Understood." Limulu sneered suddenly, and said helplessly, "So, are you planning to stop me? Fifth place?"

"I don't think it's a good thing to hand over my past development success to you, a guy who doesn't even know where he came from." Shokuhou Misaki raised his chin lightly: "Unless, you can open your brain to me , let me figure out what you plan to do with it."

"Is that so? That's really a pity." Limuru raised the corner of her mouth, raised her hand and gently patted the shoulder of Miyi Aiyu, who had been a little emotional and silent since just now, causing her to be astonished. After looking at him, he smiled lightly and said, "I'm not used to letting others pry into my thoughts—after all, there are too many secrets in it."

"However, in the final analysis, the purpose of my visit today is just those materials. Whether you plan to send them or not... we will take them away..."

"Is that right? Mitsuki Ayu?"

"Eh?" Mitsuki Ayu was taken aback by Rimuru's actions, and then, when she hurriedly raised her head to look at Shokuhou Misaki, she saw Shokuhou Misaki's tall, wrinkled face He also looked at her with a frown.

Although the two belonged to the talent workshop together, they have never seen each other, it can be said that they have never met.

But both of them knew each other's name...that was very familiar.

Because from the beginning to the end, the two are in a competitive relationship, both know that one of them will be abandoned, and both know that one of them is destined to take everything from the other, but in the end, Shokuhou fuck Pray for victory.

"So that's how it is." Shokuhou Misaki narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Aiyu with a complicated expression, and asked, "Are you Aiyu?"

"But should I congratulate you... Congratulations on finding an institution that is willing to continue to accommodate you... But to be honest, I really can't believe you will accept..."

"Hey, maybe you don't know that you are abandoning your own path, copying homework with a copy of my development results, trying to improve yourself, and then being used by them..."

"... that's enough." Honey Ant Aiyu was still in a daze at first, and she wanted to explain how a Lv4 could be an opponent of Lv5, but after hearing what the other said, she only felt that the anger in her heart was getting hotter— —

"Is this what you said from the victor's position?" Honey Ant Aiyu raised her head suddenly, and it didn't match her cute and petite face like cotton candy, and it was the angry question at this time: "You Take everything from me, and now stand here and say this to me?!"

"You haven't experienced all this, how do you know the feeling of losing everything and being abandoned by everything?!"

Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering.

Shokuhou Misaki has her own persistence and lofty ideas, and believes that controlling this power should not be a vulgar person, nor should it be an evil existence-she knows very well that if it is herself, then she would rather have no lack of development than Will allow this power to flow into the hands of someone like Rimuru.

But at the end of the day, she was the one who made it.

As the successful person, she has never experienced Mi An Aiyu's despair, let alone her unintentionally snatching Mi An Aiyu's last redemption.

"Well, but it's true." Ai Mi lowered her head and clenched her fists: "Now you, the Queen of Tokiwadai, may not be able to understand at all, right?"

Why not eat minced meat, you who used to be the daughter of a thousand gold, even if you are abandoned by the talent workshop, you will not be reduced to the same situation as me...

Existences like you who do not lack the things we long for can go from the beginning to the end... Keep going forward with great ideals, right? !

"I can't understand at all...Understanding us ordinary people... Sometimes we are not qualified to talk about persistence?!!"

Just like the poor can only work hard to survive, ideals and dreams, persistence and ideas... are not things that a person like her should expect extravagantly.

Tears flowed out of her eyes, Miyi Aiyu really didn't want... didn't want to show her weakness in front of Limulu, she was afraid... she was really afraid that even if the other party would dislike her a little bit because of this.

If she hadn't experienced despair, she wouldn't have been so cautious, and if she hadn't experienced light, she wouldn't have been unable to endure darkness.

But she still couldn't help it, her resentment towards Shokuhou Misaki, the long-standing resentment towards Shokuhou Misaki, vented out at this moment with this roar.

At that moment, she felt unprecedented ease.

"...Ala..." Shokuhou Misaki looked at the other party's reaction on the top, and after a while, he lowered his eyes and took a serious look at Aiyu-"Is this so? That's really ...I'm sorry for that."

"But I want to refute something." Shokuhou Misaki murmured slightly, but said unexpectedly seriously: "Even people like us have things that we want to chase no matter what, but we can't chase them." .”

"I think... I should be able to understand part of your feelings... After all, I am also one of the abandoned ones."

"But just because you have nothing, what you have is also left with yourself and... your own beliefs?"

"You can say whatever you want." Mitsuki Ai wiped away her tears. She didn't believe Shokuhou Misaki's words. She turned her head and took a deep look at Rimuru who was smiling at her gently. Taking a breath, he said, "Even if you have beliefs, beliefs are different from person to person."

"What I'm longing for, what I'm after." Mi An Aiyu clenched her fist firmly and said, "Now that I finally found it again, then I will do my best for it!"
