I'm having fun in Tokyo

He was about to move it away from him when he saw a beam of pale white light shining down in front of him.

A faint shadow stood in the light.

She was a long-haired girl wearing a silk nightgown, with an unrealistically cute face.

Her gaze was somewhat curious as she looked him over.

"who are you?"

"You have illegally accessed the central control room, and there is no record of your activity in the academy."

“My construction date is 2001. You used a privilege card that was preset before construction. I should call the police now, but I can’t.”

“I know you are the enemy, but your authority requires me to treat you as an ally.”

"Then I'm giving you one last warning: leave immediately!" she said softly.

"This is for your best."

Morikawa Yu remained silent.

The projection girl's identity is Norma, the artificial intelligence of the academy's mainframe, also known as EVA.

Norma and EVA are both her names, representing her two forms.

She usually operates in Norma form.

However, during wartime, the Academy will activate her EVA form, maximizing her performance.

She should be Norma now.

As the academy's mainframe, Norma stores the files of everyone in the academy and can access global surveillance and information data.

If he hadn't switched to his Nightbringer form, the girl would have recognized him the moment he entered the passageway and recorded his presence there.

Unless he dismantles the mainframe in front of him, or takes it away, otherwise...

take away?

Morikawa Yu raised an eyebrow.

Suddenly he had a bold idea.

The space inside the Goshuincho is vast, extremely vast, with no boundaries, and now he is familiar with its use, able to activate spatial power to transfer things around him into it.

If he wanted to, he might actually be able to take her away.

In that case, the college's supercomputer would be his.

This is a very tempting option.

Because Norma, or rather EVA, is a true supercomputer.

She's not the kind of AI that misinterprets "showing off" in "twin 130mm gun" as "pretentious" and silences the user; she's a true AI that can find you the complete design blueprints for this gun, and even its derivative models.

Her prototype was ENIAC, the world's first general-purpose computer. The Secret Service, which established Kassel College, realized that ENIAC was a good thing, so they copied ENIAC exactly and renamed it EVA.

Over the next few decades, the Secret Service continuously enhanced EVA with the latest technology, eventually turning her into a super network capable of monitoring the entire world.

With her computing power, she can conduct a comprehensive intelligent search across the global network, infiltrate anything connected to the internet, and call upon all available processors to work for her.

To say that he was unmoved would be self-deception.

But EVA is not easy to take away.

It wasn't just because of her size, but because the impact of taking her away was too great.

She was the secretary of the entire college.

If he takes her away, the entire Kassel College will come to an instant halt.

He will also become the target of public criticism.

Morikawa Yu hesitated for a moment.

He bypassed the projection of the girl and the metal puppet in front of him, walked to the side of the main unit, and reached out his hand.

No, it's not good enough.

EVA's mainframe isn't just the towering structure in front of us, but also includes her hub.

It was a much larger server room, containing millions of cables of various functions, massive server racks, and a console that could modify her core command library.

He was still unable to extend his spatial power to such a large area.

so......

I'll go back and ask Ryoko for advice.

Morikawa Yu withdrew her hand.

"What are you doing?" the girl Norma asked him curiously.

When Morikawa Yu reached out his hand, she used the human facial expressions and body language stored in the database to analyze that he wanted to have her at that moment, but she couldn't understand the meaning of his action.

Morikawa Yu shook her head and remained silent.

Although he had the Nightbringer's battle form to conceal his identity, he was unsure whether his voice had changed.

If he speaks, he is very likely to expose himself.

He lowered his head, glanced at the map, searched for the direction of the "ice cellar," and finally walked towards a corner.

The girl Norma watched his retreating figure and tilted her head slightly.

......

Soon, Morikawa Yu arrived at the destination marked on the map: the "Ice Cellar Alchemy Equipment and Specimen Exhibition Hall" in the academy's underground.

He activated Swift Step again to conceal his presence.

Not long after, following the signs on the road, he entered a huge integrated laboratory and, with the help of a researcher, found his "target".

A group of people are surrounding a cryogenic chamber with quartz glass walls.

In the center of the cryogenic chamber is a brass canister whose function is not immediately apparent. It is steadily suspended in the superconducting magnetic field of cryogenic liquid nitrogen, with four robotic arms beside it.

Among the crowd stood an elderly man, directing researchers to dissect a brass jar.

Although the old man was wearing a completely sealed sterile suit, Morikawa Yu still recognized him. He was Hilbert Jean Angers, the current principal of Kassel College, an S-class hybrid, and the holder of the Word of Power: Time Zero.

At that moment, the old man seemed to be waiting for something.

Although the dissection had begun, he hesitated to let the researchers actually dissect the brass jar, instead focusing on his thoughts.

But Morikawa Yu knew what Principal Angers was waiting for.

The principal is waiting for Lao Tang.

Old Tang's true identity is the Dragon King Norton, and the brass jar in front of him is the egg of Old Tang and his brother.

According to the other party's plan, Old Tang will arrive here, see the egg, dissect the egg, see his brother, remember his identity, and transform back into Dragon King Norton.

Then the headmaster would take advantage of the opportunity to kill Norton, who had just remembered his identity, and his newly hatched brother right there.

But now Old Tang is trapped in the golden protective aura's domain and can't come at all.

The principal's plan was thus partially ruined by him.

But that's not enough.

Even if Old Tang can't come, the principal will cut open Old Tang and his brother Constantine's eggs, release Constantine, and let Constantine go to Old Tang.

Finally, the headmaster will kill Constantine in front of Donald, forcing Donald to remember his identity, and then kill Donald.

What Morikawa Yu needs to do is prevent this tragedy.

Whether it's trapping Old Tang or seizing the bone flask now, it's all the same.

The duration of Swift Step is almost over.

Morikawa Yu drew the Black Flame Katana from his waist, his figure disappearing into the wind as he charged toward the researchers.

Among the researchers, Principal Angers suddenly felt a pang of unease, as if he were being watched by some monster.

He ignored the researcher next to him who was asking him what to do next, and suddenly turned around to look around.

Nothing happened.

In the vast, integrated laboratory, besides him and the researchers, there seemed to be nothing else.

He then looked at the brass pot.

There was no movement at all inside the brass pot.

But he still felt a slight unease.

He silently activated his Word of Power: Time Zero.

This is a very high-level Word of Power that will speed up his reaction speed; for him, one second can be equivalent to fifty seconds.

In addition, his reaction speed can be increased to up to four times the normal speed.

He can make one second feel like two hundred one seconds at his fastest.

At the very end of those two hundred one-second intervals, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

At first, there were tiny ripples in the air, like the wind blowing across the water, creating ripples. Then, a katana gleaming with fire sliced ​​through the air and appeared before his eyes.

Then, the owner of the knife also revealed himself.

His skin was like black rock, surrounded by black mist and starlight. He wore a huge crown, and his face beneath the crown was shrouded in black rock, with only his imposing crimson-orange eyes visible.

Human?

No, such a figure is definitely not human.

But it didn't resemble dragons; rather, it seemed like an enemy never before seen.

Principal Angers subconsciously began to think.

Then his expression changed again.

He saw the flaming katana approaching him.

Even with his reaction speed increased two hundred times, the katana was still very fast, only slightly slower, giving him time to react.

Realizing this, Principal Angers' heart skipped a beat.

If it possesses such speed even below zero time, it's simply unimaginable how fast the owner of this knife is.

He flung his hand, attempting to pull out a Damascus steel alchemical folding knife from his sleeve.

This knife accompanied him for nearly a century. It was made of rare cold-forged patterned steel, a legendary steelmaking technique that had been lost since the 18th century.

Furthermore, he coated the knife with poison, making it extremely lethal to dragons and hybrids.

Then he remembered that he had put the folding knife in his left sleeve.

He had to remove his sterile gown to get the knife.

During this time, given the opponent's slightly slow but still agile speed, it would be enough to cut him in two.

He gritted his teeth, dodged, and barely avoided the black fire katana.

But when he tore open the sterile suit and threw out his folding knife, he found that the other party did not stop at all, but instead slashed at the quartz glass wall in the center of the research institute, cutting a huge opening in the glass wall.

Then, the other person bent down, grabbed the brass can, charged forward, and slashed through the glass wall again, leaving only a silhouette of someone running away.

That's their target!

"Follow me!"

He shouted.

But he immediately realized that he was still using Word of Power, and the researchers around him couldn't hear what he was saying.

Furthermore, the researchers' Words of Power are all research-oriented and lack combat capabilities.

“Norma!” he shouted again.

......

In the central control room, Norma, the girl projected in white light, looked toward the integrated laboratory in the "ice cellar".

She blinked, and a dazzling light shone in her bright blue pupils.

It was a massive, immeasurable stream of data flowing at breakneck speed.
