The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 318: Shirley Cromwell

The place where Ling Xingye was ambushed was very close to his apartment.

So Kanzaki Kaori happened to pass by here when he left, and immediately noticed the abnormality in this area.

"This group, which you call the Hound Force, seems to use magic similar to 'enchantment'—magic cast by technological means." Kanzaki Kaori explained.

"Magic?" Ling Xingye and Misaka Mikoto were both surprised, "Using technology to cast magic?"

"It's hard to accept, isn't it?" Kanzaki Kaori said, "But judging from the effects they showed, it is indeed the magic I understand!"

"Actually, in the final analysis, this magic is just a ritual. Repelling idlers, plus a part of the nature of the private domain—but for experienced magicians, this kind of magic barrier is the most striking mark, so I will specifically Come check it out."

Using such completely inaccessible things to perform rituals and perform magic... Such things may not be acceptable to ordinary magicians. But from Kanzaki Kaori's point of view, this is actually nothing special.

The sect she had been a part of was the best at such things.

"Actually, I suddenly received an order from the Supreme Bishop, and I was about to take action." Kanzaki Kaori said, "If there is no accident, the magician who is now invading the school city and wreaking havoc is probably related to our Puritanism. .That’s why I was asked to deal with this matter.”

Misaka Mikoto continued: "I also received a call from Saten-san just now, saying that an attacker suddenly appeared in the underground mall and caused major damage."

"So my sister and I are going to help. Misaka continued."

Originally, this afternoon, Misaka Mikoto and Misaka 10001 were going to go shopping with Saten Ruiko and the others.

However, it was delayed for a long time because of many chores in Misaka 10001's enrollment.

After finally getting away, Misaka 10001 insisted on reporting the situation to his master Ling Xingye.

That's why they came near Ling Xingye's apartment.

Then it happened to be the moment when Uluft broke through the "barrier".

So they also saw the fighting situation inside, and Ling Xingye's embarrassing scene under heavy siege.

After tying up all the enemies and calling the police, the group quickly left here.

No one put forward the idea of ​​"cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots to eliminate future troubles".

Ling Xingye and Kanzaki Huozhi have the principle of "don't kill people".

Misaka 10001 obeyed Ling Xingye's decision.

Uluft implements his own "righteous partner" setting, and does not allow people who have lost the ability to resist to kill.

Only Misaka Mikoto is truly unwilling to hurt other people's lives because of kindness.

Immediately afterwards, the few of them decided to deal with the magician invasion together.

When they arrived, the relevant area had been cordoned off and a state of emergency had been entered.

Armored transport vehicles with unique livery from the Ministry of Security filled the streets, and many guards in bulletproof suits, riot shields and automatic firearms were patrolling back and forth to maintain order.

It can be seen that the street in front is in a mess as if it was walked by a giant or a monster not long ago.

Large potholes that seemed to be footprints were regularly distributed on the road, and the ground was cracked inch by inch.

The surrounding vehicles and light poles were also affected to varying degrees.

The only good news is that there were no serious casualties at the scene, and the ambulances on the scene were not busy.

However, the intruders have already entered the underground mall, so it is not known whether there were any casualties.

Ling Xingye looked at the traces left on the street: "It looks a bit like a large puppet."

"That's actually true." Kanzaki Kaori said solemnly, "The Supreme Bishop really guessed right...it's Shirley Cromwell!"

"It's someone you know?" Misaka Mikoto asked, "Saten-san said on the phone that it's a blonde woman in a gothic suit who can make a stone man fight."

"That's right, it's her!" Kanzaki Kaori nodded, "This is her 'masterpiece'—Kabbalistic Gargoyle Alice!"

Ling Xingye nodded, the stone statue can also be regarded as a kind of puppet.

"Since we know each other, it will be easy to handle." Uluft said optimistically, "If you persuade her well, she should be able to make her give up the attack."

Kanzaki Kaori shook her head: "She is an extremely stubborn person, especially when it comes to scientific matters, she is even more stubborn than her gargoyle!"

"She hates science so much?" Misaka Mikoto asked.

"I don't know much, Shirley has always been relatively withdrawn." Kanzaki Kaori shook her head, "But I have heard that the death of her best friend is said to be related to Academy City."

"That's how it is." Uluft nodded and said, "Since it is for the revenge of a friend, there is also her justice in it."

"Hey, make no mistake!" Misaka Mikoto glared at him, "The so-called revenge should go to the culprit who killed her best friend. What kind of justice is attacking students and ordinary citizens!"

"Yes, what you said makes sense!" Uluft suddenly realized, "We should stop her immediately!"

Ling Xingye suddenly asked the two Christian members: "Kanazaki, and Uluft, do you have illusion or invisibility magic?"

"I'm not good at magic..." Uluft shook his head.

"I can use some, but it's too late." Kanzaki Kaori knew why Ling Xingye asked this - because there were already guards coming to chase people away.

"Then we have to leave first, and then find another place to make a breakthrough." Ling Xingye made a decision.

Then, they obeyed the guard's warning and obediently left the isolation area.

"Why does Xingye come to help?" Misaka Mikoto suddenly remembered this question.

After solving the ambush of the hound army just now~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ling Xingye followed naturally.

But thinking about it carefully, Ling Xingye actually had no reason to intervene in this matter.

"Eliminate the threat and protect more people. Isn't this reason enough?" Ling Xingye said.

In fact, there is another layer of thinking—Ling Xingye wants to take this opportunity to repay their kindness for helping them just now.

Led by Ling Xingye, the group passed through the kitchen of the restaurant in the next street, then through an alley, and finally entered the blockade.

Then they ran towards the entrance of the underground mall.

At the underground entrance, a lot of people gathered instead. They were ordinary citizens who had just been evacuated from the underground mall.

Several disciplinary committee members were loudly maintaining order, and some were helping to transport the trapped people below.

As a powerful person of "space movement", Shirai Kuroko also shoulders the important task of evacuating and rescuing trapped people here.
