A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 528 Fantasy Controller
Summer vacation was approaching, and the various events he had experienced before were finally coming to an end. Now he no longer had to worry about the living expenses of the Misaka sisters. It could be said that Lin Wuming had finally reached the ideal state of "freedom from worry and burden".

But instead of feeling relieved, he became even more nervous.

Because if you calculate the time, in another year, that is, in the second half of next year, the world will usher in a crazy rampage mode...

If nothing unexpected happens, "A Certain Magical Index" will drop from the sky during next summer vacation.

When Lin Wuming thought of the monsters and demons from the magic side in the original work, he felt a huge pressure.

After all, many "magics" are unreasonable. Even if Lin Wuming has the trump card of "bullet time", if he cannot find the source of the fatal crisis, he will probably die in the end!
All in all, Lin Wuming believes that his current strength is still not strong enough and not comprehensive enough.

In order to better prepare for the upcoming "main storyline", Lin Wuming feels that the most urgent task is to improve his strength and become stronger!

At least, in terms of strength, we need to remove the prefix "suspected" from "suspected level 5".

——Must obtain true level 5 combat power.

Anyway, he is no longer short of money, and Chairman Aleister has not given him many commissions recently. Lin Wuming decided to go through another "seclusion training" during the summer vacation in order to break through his limits and further improve his strength.

Lin Wuming has recently reached a bottleneck period - in terms of the fine manipulation of telekinesis, the "molecular" scale is already the limit, and this level of fine manipulation can only be performed in the "bullet time" state.

Under normal circumstances, the most you can do is manipulate the diamond dust.

There is still a considerable gap between this and the "atomic level" or even more microscopic scale he envisioned.

Lin Wuming had a premonition that unless he experienced another "real fatal crisis" - a fatal crisis that even with "bullet time" there was no guarantee of survival, otherwise, if he continued to practice step by step like he was now, it would be a long time before he could make further progress.

Lin Wuming certainly didn't want to really "seek death" - and then again, even if he wanted to "seek death" now, it wouldn't be that easy.

Therefore, if you want to improve your strength as quickly as possible, you can only look for some "devious ways".

Just like there was a period of time before, Lin Wuming was keen on cracking down on illegal tutoring institutions. In fact, a big part of the reason was that he also wanted to find a way to really improve his abilities.

Unfortunately, the biggest illegality of the so-called "illegal tutoring institutions" is "fraud". They don't have any technology that can improve one's ability. Lin Wuming can only return home disappointed again and again.

Finally, in early July, when Academy City fully entered summer vacation mode, Shokuhou Misaki brought "good news".

"Senior Wuming, the 'Illusionary Hand' has appeared!" Shokuhou Misaki rushed into Lin Wuming's room and sat down on the bed without any hesitation, fanning herself and saying, "It's a technique developed by Mr. Kiyama Haruo, just like..."

——Just like in the original story.

Except that the time is much earlier, the other developments are almost the same as the original plot.

"Didn't we lend her the 'Tree Diagram Designer'?" Lin Wuming was also surprised. He thought the plot would change.

"Who knows?" Shokuhou Misaki shrugged. "Maybe it has something to do with the sand fan. Isn't she working with Kiyama Haruo-sensei?"

Shokuhou Misaki and Lin Wuming are also bound by the original plot, and subconsciously think that even if there will be a "Fantasy Hand" plot, it should not happen until next year.

Unexpectedly, Haruo Kiyama's progress was so fast that he advanced "Fantasy Hand" to the level of the original plot a year ahead of schedule.

You know, Shokuhou Misaki had heard about the urban legend and went to investigate. As a result, she discovered that the mysterious software called "Fantasy Hand" had been circulating on secret forums for almost a month!
And just like the description in the original plot, this "Fantasy Hand" now also has the effect of improving the user's ability level.

There are already more than one or two users who have proven that this software really works!

Therefore, after the summer vacation, the "Fantasy Hand" ushered in a wave of explosion, and related urban legends became a hot topic.

Even Shokuhou Misaki, who was in the school garden, had heard of this legend.

"So, do we need to do anything, Wuming-senpai?" asked Shokuhou Misaki.

After all, they knew who the culprit was, and it would not be difficult to stop this incident.

"No." Lin Wuming shook his head and rejected the proposal.

"I knew it..." Shokuhou Misaki shook her head. Even without using her super powers, she could guess Lin Wuming's decision.

The "Fantasy Hand" developed by Haruo Kiyama can be said to be an extremely rare technology in the original work... no, it can even be said to be the only technology that can truly improve the level of ability.

Even if it only has a little effect.

But it does break through the limitations of "literacy judgment" and allows every user to gain a certain improvement...

More importantly, the side effects of "Fantasy Hand" are controllable.

In the original story, although the users of the "Fantasy Hand" fell into a collective coma, they quickly recovered after the incident with the "antidote" provided by Haruo Kiyama.

Rounding it off means there is no risk at all!
You know, Academy City's ability development curriculum already has methods that don't sound so safe, such as "electric shock therapy", "drug injection", "mental hypnosis", etc.; in comparison, the "Fantasy Hand" that only causes loss of consciousness and coma for a while is actually a very gentle one.

In this case, how could Lin Wuming, who has already reached a bottleneck period, give up this rare opportunity?

Even if he can only get a tiny, insignificant improvement in the end, Lin Wuming is willing to give it a try.

Because he has "bullet time", even the smallest progress will be amplified by "bullet time" and become a considerable improvement.

"Wuming-senpai..." Shokuhou Misaki hesitated, "Actually, you don't have to work so hard... That's what I wanted to say."

However, Shokuhou Misaki was also very clear that Lin Wuming was not worrying about nothing.

In fact, Shokuhou Misaki herself is also eagerly looking for ways to improve her strength.

In order to welcome the arrival of next year, Shokuhou Misaki even gave up the decision to destroy the "external brain" as in the original plot, and instead decided to take complete control of it in her own hands and make it her most powerful weapon.

"All I can say is, be careful," Shokuhou Misaki said self-deprecatingly, "but you don't need to say anything about this kind of thing..."
