Temperature Control in Academy City

Her feeling was not wrong. The doll-like thing fell into a brief state of stagnation because of the furniture, and then even let herself leave.

Either the puppet's target was not itself, or it was subject to some unknown interference.

She didn't think there was anything strange about the furniture, she just felt that something was wrong.

If we follow the reaction of a normal person, perhaps the liquid doll's 'vision' has been affected.

It was even more seriously affected than ordinary people, as if she was unable to continue attacking and locking onto Shokuhou Misaki.

But that thing obviously didn't have eyes or anything like that, only sunken eye sockets, so there was no such thing as sight.

"We need to quickly confirm the location of that doll."

"If I'm not mistaken, that thing needs to use some means to confirm the target, and these means can be blocked and influenced. This means can be cameras, sounds, or people's sight."

Sensing the position of the guards, Shokuhou Misaki suddenly showed some thoughtfulness on her face, and she had some rough guesses.

In fact, she was more inclined to the sound, because she remembered that she had carefully read a document, which was the document recorded in the library.

In this case, she couldn't imagine other people or technologies with similar abilities.

Moreover, the current situation is consistent with the description of the ability to read warnings in the library.

Her ability is to liquefy human figures. Since the puppets she creates have no eyes, they can only be positioned through bat-like echoes and sense the heartbeats of others within a certain range.

Shokuhou Misaki couldn't help but think that the furniture destroyed the path of the echo, and the heartbeats of several staff members around him caused the puppet to lose its target.

Although things happened very quickly, Shokuhou Misaki's ability to respond was even faster. The reaction ability of a psychic is not on the same level as that of a normal person, but whether the body can keep up is another matter.

She has not given up on finding out more about the manipulator behind the scenes, but she has to get rid of that person first.

Fortunately, there are many forces around me that I can rely on, otherwise it would be too dangerous for me to face it alone. It is completely a kind of existence that restrains myself.

"On the third floor. No, the doll is already on the first floor."

"If it really relies on sound waves, the elevator might be able to interfere with her."

Shokuhou-senpai was somewhat tempted, but she wasn't entirely sure.

There were hurried footsteps outside the elevator. Some guards wearing powered armor had already arrived nearby, and some of them were still being controlled by Shokuhou Misaki herself.

In order to prevent prisoners from escaping from the juvenile reformatory, in addition to some existing security facilities, some guards will be equipped with power armor to patrol around the clock.

Shokuhou-senpai suddenly opened her eyes and pressed the button for the first floor without hesitation. She pressed her body tightly against the side of the elevator door, her heartbeat echoing faintly in the space.

Along with the sound of the elevator door opening, a liquid doll suddenly appeared here, its head looking around, and the skull pendant on its neck also turned at the same time.

In a small environment like an elevator, sound waves return almost simultaneously with the echo, and the interval between the two is suppressed to an extremely short level.

If, as Shokuhou Sosei guessed, this puppet had an observation method such as echolocation, but the echo could also mislead the other party. Shokuhou Sosei, who was sticking to the wall in a small space, caused the echo to begin to confuse.

These arrangements are somewhat insignificant, but their only function is to prevent oneself from being attacked by the puppet immediately when the elevator door opens and attracts the puppet.

Wait until the moment when the puppet sticks its head into the elevator and slowly turns in front of Shokuhou Misaki's head.

A large number of driving armors quickly appeared behind the puppet, accompanied by a burst of intensive firepower, and countless tongues of fire and electric lights enveloped the body of the liquid puppet.

Shokuhou Misaki, who was standing at the edge of the elevator door, avoided these attacks.

What she wanted to confirm now was whether this thing could be killed. If it couldn't be killed, her plan for today would have to change.

“It actually melted.”

The ambush worked, and a hint of surprise flashed in the corner of Shokuhou Misaki's eyes. The doll quickly melted after being hit.

These weapons did not destroy it at all. The liquid itself can withstand a lot of kinetic and thermal energy damage. In fact, only a small part of the body was damaged. Only a part of the liquid substance was vaporized at the moment of concentrated fire.

The current situation is more like the other party voluntarily gave up this body.

A large number of stun guns mixed with a few live ammunition weapons can completely cover the target within seconds of firing.

Shokuhou Misaki didn't have much feeling about this. She could confirm that this thing was not a living being but just a tool with unknown information.

"It should be that kind of liquid metal. And this skull pendant seems to be a camera?"

Carefully walking out of the elevator door, Shokuhou Misaki lowered her head to observe the things on the ground and immediately got some useful information.

The miniature camera seemed to have been destroyed by the stun gun. The other party might have evacuated with this in mind because they had lost some tools for locking onto targets.

However, this camera has too few shooting angles and cannot fulfill the function of opening the field of view. The opponent also has other enemy-searching capabilities, so this camera is not indispensable.

Then the other party's retreat must be due to some other reason that I don't know.

However, as her arm felt an inexplicable pain, a wasp robot that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye emerged crookedly from the pile of liquid metal, bit Shokuhou Misaki, and instantly implanted many tiny nanorobots into her.

However, the Wasp robot and the nanorobots it carried were severely affected by the intensive shooting from a large number of electric shock guns, resulting in a large number of damage and malfunctions of the nanorobots.

The nanorobots that were originally capable of completely paralyzing Shokuhou Sosei only made it difficult for her to control her body.

Chapter 338 Positioning

The arm that was attacked by the Wasp robot felt numb and even slightly swollen.

Shokuhou Misaki could only hold on to the edge of the elevator with one hand and took a moment to reassure herself of her situation.

"So the other party had such a plan. Fortunately, the situation is not serious."

Shokuhou Misaki couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

The muscles in his arms were tensed the moment the wasp stung him, and the physical exhaustion made his body difficult to control.

However, it seems to be more of a stress effect on the body, not all of it is the influence of those injected substances.

Under the control of Shokuhou Sosei, a driver armor behind him raised his hand and raised the stun gun, spraying out a strong stream of electrons at an extremely fast speed, accurately turning the Wasp robot flying in the air into a pile of scrap metal.

Looking at the completely disabled wasp robot, Shokuhou Sosei kept a thoughtful expression on her face.

She could clearly feel that there were some extremely tiny things in her body that were blocking the communication between her nerves, causing the biological communication between the brain and body to be in a state of disorder.

This state of weakness came on quickly, probably due to poor physical condition.

Her exercise volume has increased recently because of this incident, but it is still not up to the level of an average junior high school student.

At this time, an ordinary junior high school student had almost finished his picnic in the park and was lazily basking in the sun.

The robot implanted into Shokuhou Soxi's body is a specially made nerve-blocking nanorobot.

Most people may have to wait for several minutes before the effect occurs. For those who have a certain mechanical resistance and strong physical fitness and the ability to generate electricity, it will take more time.

Of course, just increase the scale of nanorobots and make the number reach a terrifying level.

Even the top power generators could be subdued in an instant by a certain railgun, but an ordinary Wasp robot certainly didn't have that much carrying capacity.

But one of the senior students only lasted a few tens of seconds before being affected, and this was under the premise that some of the nanorobots were damaged.

"The effort to attract attention failed."

This thought began to arise.

"Did the satellite capture my movements, or was there a flaw somewhere, or was there some person with the ability to predict the future?"

Frowning, Shokuhou Misaki did not try to clear out the things in her body.

If she guessed correctly, it should be some kind of nanorobot or similar blocker. No matter which one it was, she had no way to clean it up in a short time.

Fortunately, the impact on her was not great. The affected parts of her body were mainly concentrated in the arm that was stabbed, and did not immediately spread to the whole body through blood circulation.

After getting used to it a little, Shokuhou Misaki had some idea in mind.

Even if these nanorobots or something else spread out, the impact on oneself will not be great, at least the ability to move will not be affected.

If we can't find a way to eliminate these nanorobots, we can only wait for the body's metabolism to automatically excrete them, which will take at least a month.

"We must quickly find out the information about the mastermind and leave here."

"No, I can probably do more."

A thought suddenly came to her mind, and Shokuhou Misaki recalled every aspect of the attack in her head, and a rare smile appeared on her face.

If the other party used something that could cause a person to lose control of their body, then there would definitely be corresponding recovery personnel afterwards.

As long as he showed the slightest sign of unconsciousness, such as the failure of psychological control, those people might appear immediately.

"But even if the body cannot move, the mental control ability belonging to the brain is still effective. If the other party has carefully investigated me and has sufficient knowledge of the drugs used, they will not be easily fooled."

Suddenly pursing her lips, Shokuhou Misaki denied her own opinion again.

"Then that's all that can be done."

The arm that was stung by the wasp is still limp, but fortunately the other hand can still move normally, Shokuhou-senpai thought with a frown.

She planned to move temporarily before the metal doll appeared.

After all, some time has passed and the guards he sent out have already obtained what they wanted.

Dozens of staff members filed out of the annex building. As far as they could remember, they had temporarily gotten a short vacation due to the Daiha Star Festival.

Mixing with the staff, a certain blonde girl combed her hair to make herself look ordinary. She was not going to continue to confront those people in the short term.

At the same time, operations within the juvenile detention center changed.

The guard with the copied hard drive successfully left the juvenile reformatory, took off his drive armor and went to one of her bases. The guard who escorted the manager who received the mastermind that day also moved away from Shokuhou Sosei's location in another direction.

She decided to be safe and protect the information of the mastermind first.

But at this moment, an inexplicable suppression descended upon Shokuhou Misaki, causing her abilities to suddenly become stuck.

Fortunately, the distance was quite far, and it seemed that Shokuhou Misaki's position was not captured, so the suppression on her was not very strong.

"Has the AIM jammer installed in the juvenile reformatory been discovered?"

Shokuhou Misaki suddenly felt some emotion in her heart.

As expected, the fact that so many people left without reason made those inside the juvenile reformatory who were not under their control suddenly alert.

The AIM jammers in the juvenile reformatory are turned on all day, but usually they cover the area near the reformatory wall. This time, the direction of some of the jammers was turned around.

Before she could react, an even stronger suppression came from an unknown direction, instantly cutting off the connection between Shokuhou Misaki and the several guys who were being carefully controlled.

Her head suddenly felt dizzy. The first interference was still acceptable, but the second strong interference immediately made it difficult for her abilities to function normally.

This situation seems somewhat familiar. The self-suggestion rooted in the brain has become confused and cannot be accurately refined through the remote control.

Moreover, even if Shokuhou Misaki chose to continue to stay away from the juvenile reformatory, the second sudden interference could follow her like a shadow.

She immediately realized that she had been located.

Apart from the ubiquitous satellites, the most likely things are the things in your body that block your nerves.

Along with a sharp whistling sound, several different types of drive armor suddenly appeared not far away, and there seemed to be several young boys and girls of different ages following behind them.

One of the users with strong thermal abilities condensed a high-temperature fireball that was enough to be used in actual combat, and turned a drive armor that received a protection command more than ten meters away into scrap metal.

In a blink of an eye, she understood what had happened. Shokuhou-senpai finally confirmed that this was definitely not the other party who had discovered her actions temporarily and was trying to interfere with her, but rather an organized and premeditated ambush.

"drop."

The remote control made a crisp sound, and Shokuhou Misaki tried to use her ability again.

This AIM interference from an unknown source is very effective, but people with super powers cannot make inferences based on common sense.

In addition to the ability itself, the vast majority of people with super powers either rely on influence to form a small team, or have their own various supports.

Even a temperature controller who was mixed in the small group of the railgun had received some inexplicable special support from the security guards and discipline committee members.

Don’t think that it’s useless for Natsume to have good relationships with the discipline committee members and security guards. In fact, they also represent two external forces in Academy City that cannot be ignored. Good students will always be welcomed by everyone.

The space seemed to turn gray, and everything around seemed to have stopped in time.

An unimaginably huge brain wave scanned the surrounding area within seven or eight kilometers, covering the brains of everyone around.

Because Shokuhou Misaki's abilities were greatly suppressed, she was unable to accurately locate the nearby area, so she could only increase the use of the external brain to cover more nearby areas.

The so-called external brain is Shokuhou-senpai's secret.

Hidden in this city is an extra power that belongs only to Shokuhou Misaki. It can amplify and extend her own abilities, but it cannot perform calculations on her behalf.

"The suppression has increased again, and the number of activated AIM jammers is still increasing. My abilities are becoming more and more unstable."

She immediately understood the situation. Shokuhou-senpai did not attempt precise control, and even reading memories became dangerous.

She was worried that her severely declining accuracy would cause her to accidentally delve into the ocean of these people's memories, causing irreversible pollution to her mind.

Reading minds or memories also carries certain risks.
