I don't want to be an elf!

"Yes."

Higuchi Kazuyo took out a sophisticated control instrument from the trunk of the car and turned on the switch.

A camera drone, which can hardly be seen in the dark night, was activated and flew in the air.

Controlling the drone to fly slowly, the noiseless drone caught up with Kurumi Tokisaki and followed her not far away.

"Higuchi-kun, although your mission is to find out Kurumi Tokisaki's supernatural abilities, this is not necessary."

"Yes."

"Proceed with caution. It doesn't matter even if you don't take any pictures. The principle of not letting her find out is your priority."

"Yes."

The investigation task is the task that most tests a person's comprehensive strength.

The executor must not only have extraordinary judgment, excellent vigilance, keen intuition, but most importantly, the ability to leave calmly after being discovered.

This is the quickest and most effective way to find out what a supernatural person's supernatural power is.

Yes, Ogai Mori wants to find out the abilities of Kurumi Tokisaki through this mission.

As for Higuchi Kazuyo, he is not only the driver, but also the monitor.

A monitor who can report Tokisaki Kurumi's abilities to him at any time.

Although he could directly ask Tokisaki Kurumi's abilities, Mori Ogai knew that people like her were more wary than anyone else, and even if he said it, it might be false information.

So one of the purposes of him sending Higuchi Ichiyo and Tokisaki Kurumi to perform missions together is to try to figure out what her abilities are.

In the Boss building, the headquarters of the port mafia tens of kilometers away, Mori Ogai looked at a huge projection screen not far away.

The picture on the screen was linked to the camera drone, and the picture captured by the night vision device was transmitted in real time from Higuchi Kazuyo.

Under the photography of the highest-precision night vision device, Tokisaki Kurumi's back was clearly captured, so he could see Tokisaki Kurumi's every move.

She didn't seem to realize that she was being watched, and walked leisurely.

However, when she approached the factory, a huge circular solid appeared behind her out of thin air, covering her body.

"Higuchi-kun, fly to her side."

"Yes."

The scene quickly changed its angle, capturing Tokisaki Kurumi's side face and part of a circular three-dimensional image.

It was a huge clock, like an enlarged version of Tokisaki Kurumi's left-eye clock, with twelve Roman numerals each occupying one hour of the clock.

"The classical style of the Roman clock seems to be related to her two flintlock guns from the shape, and it may even be a complete set of equipment." Mori Ogai thought, "What is the ability of this huge clock? And What's the connection with the flintlock?"

Just as Mori Ogai was thinking, a puzzling scene appeared.

On the screen, Tokisaki Kurumi even pointed his flintlock gun at his temple.

Even if she is holding an ordinary flintlock gun, its range, accuracy and power are far inferior to any modern firearms, but shooting at such a close range is still tantamount to suicide.

But Tokisaki Kurumi still pulled the trigger.

"Ok?"

The expected splash of brains did not appear, but her figure disappeared into the camera.

It wasn't that there was a problem with the drone's monitoring system, but that she completely disappeared the moment after she pulled the trigger.

Both Higuchi Ichiyo and Mori Ogai were extremely puzzled.

In the end what happened?

------

------

"After becoming an elf, I have become more sensitive to concepts like sight."

After realizing that Higuchi Kazuyo was spying on her, she directly used the ability of the angel [Koko Emperor] to teleport into the factory in the shadow.

Kekedi has a total of twelve time-related abilities, one of which is to speed up the time flow of the object being hit, so that it can achieve the effect of teleportation.

Combined with the ability to sneak into the shadow, Tokisaki Kurumi can sneak into any place he wants.

"Although it doesn't hurt to reveal a little bit of my ability to them, it's Tokisaki Kurumi's style to keep it mysterious." She muttered to herself, "I know you are very curious about my ability, but I'm sorry, I want to investigate In terms of my information, I have to work harder."

She shook off the drone behind her and started working on the task in front of her.

Investigate the factory.

There are closed wooden boxes everywhere inside the factory, and at a glance, the entire factory is filled with them.

These wooden boxes provided Tokisaki Kurumi with an excellent cover. The girl's slender body was completely able to hide without being noticed.

"I've never done infiltration work before. Although I can use Tokisaki Kurumi's abilities, it's better to be cautious."

Tokisaki Kurumi stuck his head out and carefully observed the interior of the factory.

Although it looks like an abandoned factory from the outside, the inside is not as messy and barren as imagined.

On the contrary, all the wooden boxes were neatly stacked around, and precision instruments and various chemicals were placed in the open space in the middle. Everything seemed orderly.

In Tokisaki Kurumi's field of vision, there were probably more than 20 people.

Most of them were unarmed ordinary people. They gathered around the equipment in the center and didn't know what they were doing.

The rest are militants equipped with weapons. Although the equipment is not sophisticated, most of them are just pistols, they are still extremely lethal to ordinary people.

From the looks of it, this place should be a small stronghold of some organization.

If you want to get more information, just looking is not enough.

"It's really troublesome. If these people find out, they will definitely be beaten into a sieve." Tokisaki Kurumi thought, "But this is my first mission, and I must not fail, otherwise I will finally be in the forest. The image that Ou Wai has established in front of him is about to collapse."

She looked at the flintlock gun in her hand and hesitated.

Do you want to summon a clone to assist her in completing the task?

Chapter 9 Try Ability

Tokisaki Kurumi is the most special one among the ten elves.

When other elves use angels, they only need to consume energy called [spiritual power], but Kurumi Tokisaki consumes [time] as well as spiritual power.

Time, that is, her lifespan.

Every time Ke Kedi is used, her lifespan will be shortened, and the time consumed when using different abilities is also different.

The One Bullet consumes the shortest lifespan, and the Ten Bullet consumes the most lifespan. Although the Eleventh Bullet and the Twelve Bullet do not consume time, they consume more spiritual power than the One Bullet to the Ten Bullet. It all adds up to a lot.

One bullet's ability is to speed up time, and it can be used on oneself to achieve instant movement, which is very convenient whether it is in daily life or in battle.

The ability of the second bullet is to slow down time, and shooting the enemy can significantly slow down the opponent's actions, thus gaining a combat advantage.

The ability of the Three Bullets is time jump, which jumps the body state to a certain time. It has relatively little effect, but it can also be useful in special circumstances, similar to the gold carat.

The ability of the Four Bullets is to reverse time, rewind the state of the body to a certain period of time, which is equivalent to the invincible healing ability, and it can be regenerated from minor injuries to severe injuries and severed limbs.

The ability of the fifth bullet is to predict the future, to be able to see what will happen in the short future, so as to prepare accordingly.

The ability of the sixth bullet is to transfer consciousness, transfer the consciousness of the main body to the clone of the past timeline, which is equivalent to the enhanced version of the loser's dust.

The ability of the Seventh Bullet is to stop time, which can pause the objects and creatures shot at a certain point in time, similar to Zawarudo, which is limited to objects.

Hachi no Bullet's ability is to create a clone, pulling himself from the past timeline to the current timeline.

The ability of Nine Bombs is to link consciousness, which can link the consciousness of independent individuals on different timelines.

Ten Bullets' ability is to read memories, literally reading memories.

Eleven Bullet's ability is to travel to the future.

The ability of Twelve Bullets is to go back to the past.

If you want to create a clone to help you complete the task, you must use the Eighth Bullet.

It's just that the eight bullets don't take too little time, and she will die because of the end of her lifespan within a few times.

But there are ways to solve the time problem.

Tokisaki Kurumi also has an ability called [Castle of Eating Time].

The City of Eating Time is an enchantment used by Tokisaki Kurumi to replenish time. Life forms that step into the enchantment range will be forcibly absorbed by time, and the body will become heavy and unable to move and fall into a deep sleep, which can avoid deep sleep There are only elves.

In this world, probably only people with supernatural powers like Mori Ogai can be immune to the sleeping effect.

What she needs to solve most now is the problem of time shortage.

If she doesn't have enough time, she won't be able to summon the clone, and if she can't summon the clone, then this investigation task will become extremely difficult.

"Hey, wait."

Suddenly, Tokisaki Kurumi found himself in a misunderstanding of thinking: "I just use the city of time to put these people into a deep sleep, and then I can investigate slowly later?"

If the real Tokisaki Kurumi encountered this situation, he would immediately think of using the city of eating time to put ordinary people into a deep sleep.

Although the girl is very familiar with Tokisaki Kurumi's ability, she doesn't have much experience in actually using it.

"If you want to play Kuang San well, there is still a long way to go."

The girl sighed, and with a thought, she opened the time-eating city.

With Kurumi Tokisaki as the center, the red field suddenly spread out in all directions, shrouding the entire factory in a nightmare-like barrier.

Soon, some people couldn't bear the negative effects brought about by the time-eating city, and fell to the ground.

"what happened?!"

"I feel a little... dizzy..."

"Could it be... an attack by a supernatural being?"

Everyone in the factory was thrown into chaos.

As the first person lost consciousness and fell to the ground, panic gradually filled the hearts of the others.

In the red city of Time Eclipse, the slightly experienced armed personnel quickly realized that they were under the influence of superpowers. They all clenched their firearms and gathered around them in twos and threes with vigilance.

However, time did not allow them to discuss any countermeasures.

In less than a minute, both ordinary people and armed personnel fell into a deep sleep under the power of Time Eater City, and fell to the ground like corpses.

Tokisaki Kurumi looked around, and no one could resist the influence of the time-eating city.

It seems that there are no superpowers here.

This is good news. Although Kurumi Tokisaki's fighting ability is not weak and ranks in the middle among the elves, it is better not to fight if possible.

"Is this what it feels like to take away other people's time?"

Tokisaki Kurumi closed her eyes, and felt more than 20 strange breaths slowly flowing into her shadow like a stream, feeding back to her body.

The hour, minute and second hands of the golden clock eye in the left eye rotate rapidly, which symbolizes the continuous flow of time into her body.

Among the many elves, Tokisaki Kurumi is considered the first echelon in terms of total spiritual power, and rarely lacks mana.

But in order to display her true strength, what is needed is not spiritual power, but enough time.

Theoretically, given enough time, she could defeat any elf.

And Tokisaki Kurumi in this world is still a blank slate, and has never taken other people's time, so many of Kekedi's abilities will be restricted.

Absorbing the time of more than 20 people at the same time, her time reserve increased rapidly, growing to several times its original size in just a few minutes.

After absorbing it to a certain level and having enough time, Tokisaki Kurumi opened his eyes.

"Eight Bullets."

The phantom of Emperor Keke appeared behind him, and the Roman numeral eight on the clock released a puff of black smoke.Inhaled by the barrel of a flintlock musket.

The eight bullets were loaded into the flintlock gun, and Tokisaki Kurumi pointed the muzzle of the gun at his head and shot.

The next moment, another Tokisaki Kurumi slowly emerged from her shadow.

"Hello, [me]." The clone greeted.

"First time meeting, [me]." Tokisaki Kurumi responded.

Looking at the clone in front of her with the same appearance, voice, and memory, she couldn't help feeling a strange feeling in her heart.
