Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

When Zhixing was about to walk towards the computer to check the contents, an unexpected voice came from outside the room.

"Huh~~ This is really weird. I didn't expect it to be disguised as a wall."

As the sound appeared, Zhixing quickly put the teapot back to its original place and adjusted its direction, turning the side with the golden skin exposed to the direction where the sound came from.

Soon, a man wearing a black mask walked in, starting from his hand, because he touched the wall.

"If I hadn't been to this hall before, I really wouldn't have noticed that there was an extra room here."

"Is this the power you created, Kaito-kun?"

Looking at the uninvited black-masked man in front of him, who relied on the sensing power of his personality mask to eliminate the suspicion of the girl who belonged to the cognitive existence while speaking, and turned his attention to himself, Zhixing's heart sank.

After all, if the paper company remembers correctly.

The Akechi Goro in front of him didn't need to go through the trouble of making a wish for three coordinates and then using an app to enter the temple like the Phantom Thieves did.

Instead, just like the black cat mona, it can directly enter the impression space of the location from reality, and then enter the hall of the corresponding location.

His strength is so great that even the later Phantom Thieves need sufficient training to defeat him, and in his hand... he is holding a real gun!

Chapter 266: All-out Battle

"Whoo~"

Zhixing looked at the black-masked man in front of him, a villain in the original plot, a being with the same power as the protagonist and who had grown up a long time in advance. Especially when he was interacting with the protagonists, he was different. The black mask at this time represented that the person in front of him was an image of a person who would no longer pretend to be a good person.

At this time, if you pretend not to know the other person, then based on the situation in other halls, there is a high probability that you can still survive.

"You actually found him! You're worthy of being the illegitimate son of Shido Zhengyi. Looks like you're the only obstacle he needs to clear."

He looked at the paper line that not only did not run away, but was actually approaching him.

Akechi Goro, who had been a little excited at first, calmed down at this moment. He looked at the girl, whom he had not paid attention to before, with a slightly wary look. He did not continue to approach her, but stood there and asked doubtfully:

"It seems like you know a lot of things. From whose heart did you learn that?"

"Hmm? Haven't you ever been to his temple? There's a special place there that recognizes you."

"Have you been there?"

Goro Akechi, who had felt that he could do whatever he wanted in this cognitive world, now felt nervous.

Because as early as when he had this power, he had already tried to silence those who knew his identity through the shadow.

His purpose was to betray his father when he was successful in his career and give him the heaviest blow.

But the premise of all this is that his father does not know his identity.

Because of the worry about going to the Lion Boy's Hall, maybe because of some things in his heart, he was impulsive.

Therefore, Goro Akechi kept his sanity and did not allow himself to enter the hall.

What's more, with the help of Goro Akechi, after Shido mastered the information about cognitive science, the other party is likely to have deployed a lot of defensive forces in the hall.

But the person in front of him was able to enter his temple and knew so many secrets.

If he had relied on force to get in, Goro Akechi could still understand it a little. After all, the other party could materialize in reality, which was indeed not to be underestimated. But in the cognitive world, Goro Akechi did not think that his strength was weaker than the other party's, it was just that the other party's strength might be more special.

But if the situation is another one, where the other party is the power holder cultivated by Shi Tong Zhengyi through the information of cognitive science, then the meaning it represents is completely different.

One is a power gained unexpectedly, and the other is a thug who can be mass-produced based on scientific research data.

If this really happens, Goro Akechi's plan to become the other party's right-hand man will be ruined.

"You've been there, but that doesn't affect your ending."

"On the contrary, I'm a little curious why you call me a phantom thief? Obviously, the things those guys did haven't gotten out of hand yet."

Looking at Goro Akechi in front of him, Zhixing was a little surprised when he found that he could not read the other's inner thoughts, but he soon realized that the power of the witch might be behind him.

So I started to confront him... No wonder, Zhixing wanted to run away immediately, the farther the better.

After all, Zhixing knows his own limitations. Without any force, does he expect to rely on his poor eloquence to convince the other party to leave?

This situation is also the reason why Zhixing has never wanted to go to other worlds with many super powers.

Because the risk factor is too high.

Zhixing has also considered the difficulty of P5, but the hidden boss will not take action before the end of the game due to an agreement, and the other bosses will not attract hostility because they are in their respective halls.

The strength of the protagonists can always match that of the corresponding halls, so there is no need to worry about being humiliated if you follow the protagonists.

Therefore, the only possible crisis here is the huge threat of Goro Akechi.

As the culprit of the "mental disorder" and "disability" that caused a sensation in society.

Whether in terms of the use of power or social recognition, they are several times stronger than the Phantom Thieves.

After all, that was a late-stage character who only attracted the other party's contact after the protagonist group had made several big events and became completely famous.

And based on Zhihang's past performance, it would have probably already fled to another world by then.

If there was anything that could have caused Jixing to meet Goro Akechi, Jixing could only think of his own act of using the name of the Phantom Thieves to gain popularity for himself.

But to be honest, Kamoshida's influence outside the school alone is not enough to attract Akechi. At least it will take until the second hall falls before it can be confirmed that what Zhixing said is true and then target Zhixing.

What's more, at this time, Kamoshida was only confessing his sins in front of the hospital bed and had not even attended the school meeting, so he would not have the kind of fame that comes from confessing his sins in front of all the students.

Zhixing had also considered this point, so he dared to test Kamoshida, hoping that he could be treated as an accomplice and interrogated, thus artificially creating an unfair situation for himself.

Anyway, the paper line has a witch barrier.

Be it Akechi or the real police station, none of them can keep up.

At this time, after discovering that he could not translate the other party's sight, Zhixing also knew that he might still be able to escape back to the witch's barrier.

But Zhixing didn't leave here immediately, and was still trying to delay time with real information, not because he wanted to whitewash the villain by revealing the spoilers.

It is because the room is now a palace and the secret treasure has been materialized.

The paper can leave, but can the palace leave? What if the person leaves but the heart does not, or even has been changed?

Faced with such a terrible situation, Zhixing could only find ways to delay time so that he could use his brain to come up with some good ideas.

After all, the only way for Mingzhi to appear here is that he has become a demon in reality, which is beyond Zhixing's expectations.

What's even more suicidal is that he should have noticed that the authorities might intervene and should have just started wandering.

But Zhixing wanted to increase the possibility of awakening his mask by using the number of people.

As a result of the Witch's Kiss, Zhixing's coordinates in reality were trapped in place because he failed to deal with this group of people. Now he is facing the villain in this world who is most likely to pose a life threat to Zhixing.

"Really? You don't know why you're called the Phantom Thief? I see, you're not the one with the power."

With just two sentences, Goro Akechi's guess was denied, and Akechi felt much more at ease.

"? No, I'm dressed so modernly, are you still going to judge me as powerless based on my words? Can you control yourself from wearing these clothes?"

Zhi Xing opened his hands with an innocent look on his face.

But this action made Akechi Goro a little confused.

After all, judging from the surveillance footage, the other party should be the initiator of the force that dragged the others into the impression space. How could he not be a thief?

Goro Akechi couldn't figure out the reason, but it didn't matter, he just had to do his job as a detective.

Defeat the other party's shadow, and then become open-minded and know everything, then everything will become clear.

"Since the power doesn't lie with you, I won't waste my time on you. You probably can't resist me with your shadow anyway."

Goro Akechi said this and did the same.

Mingzhi raised his hand and pointed at the girl who had not spoken since she came in, the cognitive existence that was obviously related to this hall.

"Although I really want to know from you where your information comes from, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, so I can only let you die here first."

Originally, he had temporarily separated from Niijima Sae due to the time difference, and came to the cognitive world to understand the situation in order to confirm the power of the mask.

If he didn't meet up with Niijima Sae when the time came, then his abnormal behavior would probably be heard by Shido Masayoshi from the Special Investigation Director.

But the empty hall along the way didn't even give Mingzhi a chance to quickly ask questions and find out what was going on.

Until I came across this hidden room with an extra wall in the treasure room of the palace.

"Personality!"

Following Goro Akechi's call, he was supposed to restore the mask to its shadow form and fight as a stand.

But this time, while keeping the mask, he summoned his wise stand-in, Shadow Loki.

Feeling the hostility shown by the other party in front of Zhixing, the girl, as the role that would protect herself in Zhixing's cognitive existence, walked up to Zhixing without hesitation, and with a fountain-like transformation, she turned into a witch that was far larger than the monster form of the Lord of the Hall. The walls around her that had no blocking effect also disappeared, revealing Kamoshida's secret treasure hall.

Zhixing looked at the battlefield in front of him that was about to break out, and felt powerless and like a burden. He became more eager to obtain the personality mask.

With this thought in mind, Zhixing suddenly had an idea.

In the hall, only the monsters will take off their cosplay characters and show their true strength.

The Lord of the Hall, who is his own shadow, often does not have combat power that exceeds that of an ordinary person.

That's why Kamoshida was imprisoned in his own prison, allowing Amamiya Ren and the others to escape the weakest novice period.

So why do the Phantom Thieves led by Amamiya Ren always have to fight the boss at the end?

That is because the Lord of the Hall can merge with his own secret treasure of desire, thereby turning himself into a member of the cognitive world and using the desires carried by the secret treasure.

And this time seems to be the best opportunity.

Zhixing looked at Akechi Goro, whose attention was attracted by the witch's tall body, and he ignored Zhixing and the miscellaneous items in the room.

The feet have already started moving towards the teapot.

It was at this moment that the accident happened.

This accident was not the intrusion into the Velvet Room, nor was it the arrival of the Phantom Thieves, nor was it the group of onlookers who were still sleeping and being guarded by familiars.

Instead, looking at the witch's huge body, Akechi Goro, who had rich combat experience, chose to use all his strength in the face of such a strong enemy.

"Although you know my identity, you've probably never seen me fight. Let me show you the power I use to create [Mind Loss]!"

A thick black liquid began to rise from the soles of Goro Akechi's feet and formed a black and red barrier outside his black clothes.

Zhixing recognized it. It was a special skill called [Out of Control] by the Phantom Thieves. It could reduce psychological defense and greatly increase attack power.

This power, when used on a shadow, can reach the point of controlling the other person's actions before death.

When used on cognitive beings, they transform into berserkers and enhance their combat capabilities.

After all, changing one's heart is achieved by defeating the shadows of the cognitive world, either through control or persuasion.

In the cognitive world, everything is a pure collision between forces.

So this skill allows Mingzhi to exert greater strength, which is not a problem in itself.

but

"Um, you want it!?"

Zhixing widened his eyes and looked at Goro Akechi, who had lost the human restraint on his emotions due to the skill [Out of Control], and his desires ran wild.

Looking at the figure wrapped in black armor, with only the eyes and the lower half of the face exposed, Akechi Goro gradually stopped preparing to attack.

Zhi Xing's gaze shifted from the secret treasure, from Akechi Goro, and turned to look at the Witch of Cognition, who had already assumed her witch form and was about to begin her turn.

Zhixing suddenly realized something outrageous.

If Kamoshida's palace is a little king in the Middle Ages, then the others are art galleries in modern backgrounds, banks in modern backgrounds, pyramids behind Egypt, factories in modern backgrounds, modern casinos, and Noah's Ark in mythological backgrounds.

Then the hall where Zhixing is now is probably a barrier with a magical background.

After all, considering that the little girl bear can become her own cognitive existence and can turn into a witch.

If monsters appear in the Paper Bank's hall, they are most likely familiars of different levels that are recognized one by one.

Looking at Mingzhi who had lost the desire to attack.

Zhi Xing asked tentatively:

"Do you remember where you learned about the Phantom Thief?"

Mingzhi maintained his strength and glanced at Zhixing with a slightly confused look. Then, seemingly more cheerful, he responded like a real-life high school detective:

"Just like when the mask awakens, it will know the name of its contract from the bottom of its heart."

"I heard your names from the old man."

"Zorro, Kidd, Carmen."
