People are in Type-Moon, but they practice science

Chapter 351 Can you keep up with my speed?

Well, we can't expect some magi with their pitiful and shallow knowledge to correctly understand what an ancestor is. The level of the twenty-seventh ancestor is already a thousand-year-level principle curse that needs to be endured to ascend to the top - it is tantamount to a monster, a singularity, and a pollution source that denies human nature.

Even if Benstar devoured an alien son of Fuhailin, at most he could reach the level of the heir to the ancestor's position, with a little extra ability brought about by the "extra hands" done by Prelati.

The two groups thus started a battle of encounter, and the final result was self-evident, the Dead Apostles would definitely win.

If there is no one with special abilities as an unexpected intruder.

——At this time, Kiana was secretly observing the people on both sides. Kiana thought she knew enough about Academy City, but when she heard their conversation, she found that she was the most confused one.

What are Dead Apostles? What are Magicians? What kind of magic are they talking about? Why is it that they look both Chuunibyou and unusually serious?

Then, Kiana quickly realized that it was not a magic setting of the second year disease, because the person on one side really rubbed out a "magic ball" with his hands to attack the other side, while the other side even took the attack head-on without any injury.

"You didn't even try to hide, are you serious? But it doesn't look like an act, does it? And that wasn't a fireball from a person with rage ability, right?"

When facing a critical moment alone, Kiana began to use her little brain to its full potential, and then her guess was confirmed:

The man who was called a Dead Apostle flew up into the air. No, it was a sound made by his huge stomping. Then he disappeared in an instant and came to the front of the magicians. He grabbed the hand of a magician in front of him.

wow——

The invisible absorption was activated, and the magus was caught off guard. His entire arm dried up as if it had lost all moisture, and turned into sand. Then, as the contact deepened, the symptoms of exhaustion spread throughout his body...

"Back off! Be alert!"

Before that, the middle-aged magician gave up the captured magician without hesitation, and the members around him automatically received orders through the channel and chose to use enhanced magic to disperse.

Kiana looked at the speed of both parties in surprise. This was definitely not at the level of an ordinary person, right? But judging from the movements, it didn't look like a martial artist who had practiced kicking skills, but more like... some kind of sudden enhancement? And the symptoms caused by the hand contact, which seemed to absorb something, were exactly the same as the corpse she had seen before.

In other words, this was the trick of the Dead Apostle? And the other party started to encounter hostility with the Dead Apostles because of this?

Jesta instantly jumped in front of the magicians, killed one of them, and then stretched out his hand and pressed down, "Too slow——!"

hum-

Invisible shadows, like countless black claws with a red tint, emerged from the ground and quickly spread out in all directions, as if countless rodent-like creatures were spewing out from the ground, and then opened their jaws to capture all the fragile flesh.

The next moment was a slaughterhouse-like scene that anyone could have foreseen. The magicians who were close and had not been able to dodge were torn to pieces by the death force that surged out from the ground. They were all turned into body fragments or bone fragments and flesh that lacked the strength to support them. They were thrown to the ground by the red shadow as if they were leftovers.

Thick blood mixed with debris, and the fishy smell permeated the earth.

Rustling... the slaughter was over, the flesh soaked in death, scattered in all directions due to inertia. Further away were the magicians who had escaped death. They had more experience than the dead, so they were all first-rate in escaping, and it was common for them to use their companions as shields. It would be a big mistake to think that they were a well-cooperative group just because they used group magic.

However, this ability to escape is also based on a certain level of strength. When the strength gap between the two sides is too large, this behavior is doomed to be futile.

That's what Jesta was thinking. "Oh my, you guys really know how to frame people. What do you mean by a lackey of Science City? Why would you call me that the first time we meet? So it's more reasonable for me to fight back, right? Look, you guys, things have developed to this point now, you can't blame me, right?"

Kiana observed all this from afar. The so-called Dead Apostle made her feel terrified. "How about contacting the school - no, the security team?"

As she said that, she took out her terminal, and oh - by chance, a call came in - oh no! It was Bronya and Mei calling!

Kiana's scalp tingled instantly. She was not afraid of the two people's questioning, but the timing was too unfortunate. She was too close to the enemy at this moment. If they heard the phone ringing...

"Who?"

The magicians soon noticed the unusual noise.

"..."

Jesta did not react. It seemed that he had a stronger sense and had already discovered Kiana hiding in the distance?

Even though she hung up the phone immediately, it was still too late, so Kiana had to hide there awkwardly. What should she do? She hadn't yet fully understood the current situation. The key was who on either side was from Academy City? The "magician" accused the "dead apostles" of being from Academy City, which meant they were not, but the "dead apostles" seemed to deny it...

"Never mind, just do it!"

The next moment, a long leg appeared in front of Jesta's face, and then - bang!

The Dead Apostle never expected that he, who was invincible, would be suddenly attacked by a person with space ability and then kicked away.

"......!" It happened in a flash, and the magician didn't have time to react. A young girl suddenly appeared and kicked the dead apostle away. They didn't even think it was space movement, something close to magic in the magic system, but soon they didn't have to worry about it.

——Kiana flashed again and instantly appeared in front of them, punching and kicking them.

That's right, Kiana planned to fight both sides. She estimated that neither side was a good person. While she was thinking, Jesta had already stood up.

The dead apostle was hardly injured. He touched his cheek and found that there was not even a red mark from the powerful kick. Perhaps he had recovered long ago. "Beautiful lady, I allowed you to watch the performance, but I didn't allow you to come out and ruin my impromptu performance."

Swah——

Kiana instantly appeared beside her and tried to repeat the same trick, but her foot was caught by Jesta in an instant.

Chapter 352: A Country Disguised as a Business

The Garden of the Academy, the dormitory of St. Freya Academy.

Mei Raiden returned to the dormitory on time, made her bedding, and searched for any possible traces on Kiana's bed, but there were only some daily necessities and nothing else. All personal documents and terminals that might be needed were not left here.

Mei Raiden raised her head again and asked Bronya, who was trying to contact someone, with anxiety in her tone: "Bronya, did you get through to Kiana?"

"No, Mei-nee, Kiana didn't answer..." Bronya wasn't in a very good mood, "There was only one text message, Kiana said she went out of school for an 'adventure', it looked like she had edited it in advance and sent it on time... Should I say it's a good thing she used her brain? At least she knew she shouldn't stay out all night without saying anything, which ruled out the possibility of an accident in school. I just don't know where Kiana is going to go so late at night."

"Can we use the communication signal to locate Kiana's location?"

"It's hard to say. It just showed that her phone was turned off. The best Bronya can do is find a location before Kiana turned off her phone. And in that case, it must be outside the school. If we want to find her--"

Mei stood up, "Let's go find the teacher...!"

boom.

As soon as the words fell in the room, the door opened - it was Wuliangta Jizi who pushed the door open and said, "I already know what happened. You are not allowed to go anywhere."

"Teacher..." Mei hesitated and wanted to speak.

"Really? You guys are so naughty. If you had just followed the school rules, this wouldn't have happened," Ji Zi said with a headache. "Recently, there has been a lot of traffic to the Daiha Star Festival. You should know that, so don't think you're invincible just because you're capable. No matter how capable you are, you're still a student."

"Teacher," Bronya asked calmly, "Does the school know about what happened to Kiana?"

"I can tell you clearly that we already know about it," Ji Zi thought to herself. Not only that, even the people on the board of directors knew about it. A female student ran to the industrial zone late at night for some reason. This was the first time such a thing had happened.

But this is a bit unusual. Normally, no matter how serious the student incident is, the security team will be responsible. With the involvement of the board of directors, the nature of the incident is obviously different. At least it means that Kiana may have accidentally bumped into a confidential matter that the board of directors is paying attention to. Oh, is there no limit to her ability to cause trouble?

"And Kiana's personal signs are all normal, there is no urgent accident. By now, there should be a special person to deal with it. As for the two of you, just stay here and don't go anywhere."

----------

some time ago.

Sakura is saying goodbye to Ryougi Shiki at the "port".

It's not accurate to say it was Ryougi Shiki. To be exact, there was a large group of people that Sakura was seeing off. The leader was Velvet, who had already completed the Clilonomea intelligence collection device. She had entered the specially built submarine of Academy City early on.

Following closely behind were the Jackal and his affairs officer Catherine and others, all of whom were former business leaders of the Shencheng Group. They had sent so many people here because of the requirements of the general meeting of the board of directors, and now they were simply returning to their original places of work.

But this is not all.

In addition, there are also members of the Academy City Special Operations Force, such as Fu Hua, a member of the fighting faction who has never been open to the public, and Asagami Fujino, who has grown to Lv5 after three years. They are the leaders, followed by trainee members such as Susanna and Kong. A large number of people have already entered their respective military submarines. Some people are still at the secret port, saying goodbye to familiar people. Not just anyone can come to say goodbye. In fact, it is people who have connections in their original work units and have work to hand over who come.

The person who came to say goodbye to Asagami Fujino was Kurostiri Hana. The two had been classmates in high school, had a good relationship, and shared common hobbies. In addition, they both had a bad impression of Ryougi Shiki... But now, all that is in the past.

On the other side, Susannah had a slightly sad face, "Ahhh, am I going to be sent to the branch? It must be because of my poor training results. Will I have a chance to see Master Yulandel again in the future?"

"Sister Susanna, come on!"

Suddenly, a younger voice came from the side. It was Sora with short lavender hair. She smiled sweetly, and in Susanna's eyes, it was surprisingly consistent with the smiley-face hairpin on her bangs.

"Ah, ah, of course! Haha, I'm just thinking about whether I'll be unfamiliar with the place, so I'm a little nervous, no, I'm a little excited!"

Susanna responded to Sora's speech, thinking, it's over, I'm being outdone by the kids. Thinking about it this way, I'm the worst among the team in terms of the average level of my peers... No, no, Susanna, you have to cheer up!

"Sister Susanna, it seems that the place you are going is different from mine. Unfortunately, I can't help you here." Kong is much better at dealing with people than Susanna, and she said with regret.

That's right, the scale of the Academy City team this time is extremely large, not only including the part going to Luzon, but also other regions in Southeast Asia, and some people are going to the American branch area.

The surge in the amount of bulk cargo shipped out of Academy City reported in local news in Japan was actually a cover-up for the large number of combat and construction personnel dispatched this time. However, the largest number of personnel went to Luzon, because the "strategy progress" there was the fastest.

Due to the completion of the preliminary layout in Luzon, Gray Snake, after manipulating the Fernando family, used the leader of the family to pretend to negotiate with the four major families of equal size, and then repeated the same tricks, drugging, reforming, purging rebels, and innovating the organizational structure. It immediately controlled the entire upper-level power, and then used various means to transfer the industry from the secret control of family members to overseas shares many times, so that the actual controller became a member of the Shencheng Group.

It can be said that Luzon has fallen into the hands of the Shencheng Group a few days ago, when the outside market and many countries are completely unaware of the situation. The nature of the Shencheng Group is gradually changing into a complex entity organization involving industry, commerce, military and politics. Now the Gray Snake has dispatched the local army to enter a blockade state, waiting for the arrival of a new batch of construction troops.

Chapter 353: Replacing the Foundation of Humanity

"But even if the plan is huge, there are too many people involved, right?"

Unlike other staff, Ryougi Shiki took the initiative to apply to go out. Perhaps it was a sudden idea. She wanted to try the swordsmanship realm that Sakura mentioned, but she couldn't find the trick. So she decided to go out of town.

But what she didn't expect was that she happened to run into a large-scale operation. Ryougi Shiki usually rarely cares about the team structure of Academy City. She probably doesn't even know which departments the research institute she has been in belongs to. She has a mentality of "just doing the task and getting paid, and not caring about anything else." So Ryougi Shiki almost thought that this operation would cause a big loss for Academy City?

Sakura seemed to have guessed her thoughts and chuckled, "In fact, Academy City still retains many parts. Most departments are still fully staffed. You should pay more attention to the ordinary scientific and technological support personnel in the research institute. Many of them were recruited for the purpose of cultivating talents."

Due to the strong high-tech attributes of Academy City, many of the positions are high-degree technical positions. In addition, the enterprise area has a demand for other positions such as management positions, and a large part of these positions can still be replaced by artificial intelligence. In other words, Academy City was suppressing the level of technology before, but now even if a large number of personnel are allocated, there is still enough capacity to maintain the operation of Academy City.

Ryougi Shiki shrugged. "I'm sorry. I'll pay more attention next time. But the land transportation part was covered up. Even so, sea transportation must be difficult, right? There are so many large submarines."

"Well, large submarines can be detected because of the noise of the propellers and the interference caused by the water. However, Academy City's technology seems to be based on detecting the surrounding ocean currents and then eliminating its own noise. At the same time, the surface of the ship also has anti-magnetic and radar detection technology. According to Velvet, with the level of other countries, even if the submarine is driven next to the other side, they will not notice... Ah, I'm not a professional. If you are really interested, why not ask Velvet. She is in the front one."

"I see. Let's wait until we have time." Ryougi Shiki didn't seem very interested. "I'll go in first. See you later!"

"Well, take care."

Sakura watched her leave. Ryougi Shiki turned back in front of the ladder, picked up her sword and waved it before entering the submarine.

"...Do you mean we can have another swordfight when we get back? You may not look like it on the surface, but you are actually quite high-spirited."

Sakura thought to herself that there was almost no one at the port at this time. This place was not near Academy City. After all, there was no seaside area in Academy City. So this was actually an underground secret port built by a subordinate organization, usually used to transport some secret goods.

Drop drop drop.

She felt an emergency call coming from the terminal. It was probably mission-related. After all, it couldn't be a trivial matter if the call came in at this time.

[A different species of vampire has appeared in Academy City. Please go and suppress it. ]

Vampire? Sakura was slightly stunned. Isn't that a common experiment of Mobius? Does she need to go out of her way to suppress it?

Forget it, maybe the species that appeared is not the same type as before. It is understandable because the situation was sudden and the intelligence was wrong.

"Sakura! It's time to go back!"

In the distance, someone from the same department called out to her.

"No, you guys take the car, and you don't have to take me with you," Sakura refused, "because something happened suddenly."

"Oh, it's temporary overtime." The other party obviously understood that there was a task, "Then we will leave first."

Sakura watched her colleagues leave, the light from the car lights gradually fading, "I'm pretty good at walking, at least faster than a four-wheeled car. So I'll be there first."

With just one leap, she disappeared, leaving the port in an instant.

--------

Academy City, District 23. It is located on the easternmost side of Academy City, bordering Districts 5, 6, and 12 to the north, District 18 to the west, District 11 to the south, and Eastern Tokyo to the east. It is the largest district in Academy City.

However, unlike other school districts, there are no high-rise buildings here, because the only airport area in the Academy City is built here. In addition, there are facilities such as the Space Research Center, the Observatory, and a large number of areas to be developed.

After all, three years is a limited time. Apart from improvements and repairs on the basis of the original municipal facilities, the overall level of ground building development in Academy City has only reached about 50%. Some school districts are still in the planning stage, and what is left for foreign tourists to visit are only two or three developed commercial areas. In addition, there are some corporate areas that recruit foreign employees.

And here, in the 23rd School District, a piece of land was temporarily requisitioned for an unknown experiment.

"Why are there so few people here? It's so hard for a researcher like me to join the team."

Guangliu, who has been traveling back and forth between various laboratories, appeared again as a laborer this time.

The director Changguang was writing and drawing on a board, and he didn't get involved in the work at all. He just watched Pingcangguangliu do the physical work.

"Oh, I told you, Pingcang, last time I sent you the information, you should have realized the confidentiality of this experiment, right? So stop talking nonsense and hurry up. The principle of laying the scientific phase looks simple, but the practical process is complicated. It also includes a lot of physical parameters and property calibration - if you really understand the information."

"Okay, then why do we have to do the experiment here? Can't we do it indoors? Director Changguang?"

"Because there are various facilities and defenses in the room, using your 'chaotic system language', there are too few 'disturbances' - don't be bound by conventional thinking. The scope of this experiment is undoubtedly abnormal science. Take the human principles I mentioned as an example. The elements of human principles include all human civilizations -"

Changguang weighed his words. The current human order and the scientific phase laying experiment they were conducting were actually no different on the surface (fabric), but the foundation was different. It was said that the human order in this world used the corpses of the gods as its foundation, so what they actually had to do was replace the foundation.

"In this way, our work is clear. The experiment we need to do is essentially a simulation, simulating the elements of a civilized society, and then adding the content of the scientific side (Academy City). From the inside out, it is our content, and it can be called the scientific phase."

Chapter 354: Accumulation City

"Okay, okay! Got it," Pingcang Guangliu helplessly accepted the reality that he was destined to do physical work.
