"The other party should be staying in the teaching building, right? Be careful." Kayoko directed Haruka to reach the entrance of the teaching building first. Although this remaining old school building is only a annex, it is also a four or five-story building. It is possible that the other party is hiding in a classroom.

"Here~plant the bomb~"

The one who pulled the bomb out of his bag and started shoving it into the wall was Mutsuki, who enjoyed the fun. Compared to Alu, who spoke tough but acted timidly, Mutsuki was the most worthy villain in the 68 Convenience House organization—he only followed Alu around because he thought it was fun.

"Wouldn't it be better to place a few more mines here..."

Compared to Mutsuki, a true little devil, Haruka's actions were even more extreme. When Haruka was working on a single commission, she once went so far as to plant hundreds of mines in dozens of public places where the person might pass, in order to prevent him from getting to school. However, that action was simply an overreaction, driven by Haruka's belief that she should have done more.

In a sense... Haruka, the girl who always apologizes, is the most worrying child in the convenience store.

"You guys, what are you doing?"

A burst of gunfire erupted, accompanied by Baizi's questioning. As the convenience store staff entered Abydos, Ayane, now fully recovered, spotted them using a drone. The school's security cameras, under her control, had also returned to normal operation. Initially, she'd considered negotiating with the convenience store staff; after all, they looked different from the helmeted gang members, and she'd considered trying to win them over.

But when he saw two of them already sticking bombs on the walls and placing mines on the ground, Bai Zi couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and rushed out, firing a round of shots - this old school building was already dilapidated, and they buried bombs in it? After a round of such fire, the building would probably collapse!

"We survived the Helmeted Gang's attacks, so how could we possibly let you destroy this building!"

As Baizi opened fire, the 68 Convenience Store staff had already taken cover in a nearby classroom, confronting Baizi through the wall. As the president, Alu felt it was time to show off his leadership as the villain, striking a striking pose and delivering his lines.

She hummed and wanted to stick her head out, but she was afraid of being hit by the bullets from the other side, so she had to hide behind the wall and said in the tone she had practiced many times in front of the mirror:

"Hehehe! We're well-known even in the underworld, the legendary '68 Convenience House'! Abydos, you're unlucky to have run into us. Blame it on you for messing with the wrong people!"

"68 Convenience House?" Bai Zi frowned. She had heard of this name. It seemed to be a place rented by a local business person in the Abydos school district.

"They're a hired gang of thugs." Bai Zi snorted coldly. Using his aura, he knew that this gang could attack Abydos for no apparent reason at this time. It must be the Caesar Group behind this. They hired these students to cause trouble for them. "Caesar Group, they're really bad at everything."

However, despite this, Bai Zi was strangely not worried at all. She knew she had a powerful comrade standing by her side. The thought of this reassured her, and even gave her courage.

"Ho~Another enemy?"

From the classroom behind Shiroko, Danreto, wearing his Alchemist armor and holding a Gashacon Destroyer, slowly emerged. Ayane, hovering in the air above the drone, had already connected to everyone's line and reported the situation to Shiroko and Danreto via wireless headphones.

"We've confirmed that four enemies have entered the campus, and no other enemy signals have been detected." Ayane quickly gathered battlefield intelligence. "Perhaps this is just a casual attrition tactic by the Caesar Group to wear down Shiroko-san's combat power."

"The combat effectiveness of 68 Convenience House is also ranked among the best among organizations of the same type and size. If Baizi were alone, it might be really dangerous..."

Several windows were open simultaneously on the laptop in front of Ayane, monitoring the entire battlefield from every angle. "But it doesn't matter. As long as I'm here, I won't let Shiroko-san fight alone!"

"Hmm...has the power weakened?"

Before the four people from 68 Convenience Store arrived, the "Alchemist Player" cartridge on Danrito's belt seemed to have undergone a strange change after he had used that unimaginably powerful move. He shook the vial of unknown potion several times, and once again, a life-restoring potion appeared. However, this time, the effect was much weaker than before.

Using the imprisoned Helmeted Gang thugs as his test subjects, Danrito dragged one of them out and beat him half to death with physical force before using the same Alchemy Critical Droplet he'd used to heal Ayane. This time, however, Danrito could clearly feel the decrease in strength.

For example... his previous healing special move could instantly fill an entire health bar, but this time, it only restored about half. After experimenting with several thugs, scaring the other thugs in the prison to the point of peeing, Danrito finally came to his conclusion.

"Shouldn't the special move that just healed Ayane be usable at any time?" Danrito recorded the experimental data. "To replicate that level of healing, would it take about four uses to achieve a similar effect?"

Lying on the ground with her mouth open and eyes closed, the Helmeted Pirate, freshly beaten and then healed by Dan Lidou, trembled in fear. Although the Alchemist's ultimate skill had healed all of the punk's wounds, even the hidden injuries she had previously sustained, the pain that had nearly shattered her body during the beating had not yet dissipated.

Because of Danrito's series of experiments, the hooligans imprisoned in the prison seemed to have quieted down a lot. Everyone huddled in the corner of the cell, trembling, afraid that they would be the next to be pulled out.

Although they were lawless hooligans, they were still students after all. After Danrito's irrational imprisonment, experiments, and unconscious examples of them, these hooligans who had once harbored rebellious thoughts were now afraid.

"However, even if its power has weakened, the effectiveness of the all-rounder still exists. This cartridge is still the result of my talent!"

Danrito pressed the button on his Destroyer Hammer, and the blade ejected from the hammer. The transforming mechanism piqued Baizi's curiosity. After all, they had never seen anyone in Kivotos use cold weapons as combat weapons, let alone a cold weapon that could transform.

Things that can transform are so cool!

Old bell

"I have to say, it's your misfortune to have me as your opponent."

Danrito, wearing a mask, slung his sword over his shoulder and shook his head dramatically. "Whether you're a convenience store or a convenience store, you'll probably be eliminated from here."

Hiding in the convenience store behind the classroom, Mutsuki smiled grimly. "How dare you say that... I won't let you off that easily, okay?"

"Rather than provoking, it's more like they're confident..." Kayoko seemed much calmer, even analyzing Danrito's tone. "Is that a mechanical lifeform? I don't see any signs of being human. But that robot with that paint job... is it a special model?"

Kayoko, who had never seen Kamen Rider and had no interest in special effects, mistook Danrito for some kind of intelligent machine commonly seen in Kiwotos. Although she was a little surprised when she saw the weapon, she just thought it was some kind of military robot.

And next, the four people in the convenience house will experience firsthand what level of opponent they are facing.

29. Good Friday for Everyone in the Convenience House

"Haruka, I'll leave the frontal firepower to you!"

Now that the enemy had appeared, there was no need to elaborate. Kayoko waved her hand, and Haruka rushed out, shotgun in hand. Although every time I saw her, I felt like Haruka was desperate, but what should I say... having a tough skin is also her advantage, right?

Every time, like a weed, Haruka stood firm in the hail of bullets. Her timidity had caused countless people to suffer. She thought she had caught a soft target, but she never expected the shotgun in her opponent's hand to unleash a force capable of destroying a heavy armored vehicle.

"I'm sorry, please die quickly, please die quickly, please die quickly!"

Along with the apology, the roar of a shotgun blast echoed, its high-explosive bullets raining down on Shirako and Danrito. Following Haruka's lead, Mutsuki launched a bomb from behind. Along with the bomb, Mutsuki's heavy machine gun unleashed a continuous barrage of bullets!

"Hahaha~ Turn into ash!"

"The firepower is definitely not on the same level as the previous Helmet Regiment."

Facing the attacks from the convenience store, Dan Lidou didn't dodge or evade. Instead, he exposed his chest and faced the powerful firepower with his Level X Alchemist Player Armor, feeling how this attack from a stronger person was different from the previous attacks from those thugs.

"Not only are the weapons significantly different, but the feel itself is also quite different."

Danrito reached out and gently deflected a few bullets, then raised his hand to twist the Alchemy Player cartridge on his waist. In the small bottle on top of the cartridge, the mysterious potion began to mix again, and this time, a bright red potion appeared, emitting a fiery anger.

"It's a strength potion this time." Danrito pulled out the cartridge under the incoming fire and inserted it into his special move holder. At that moment, he tilted his head, and Alu, standing opposite him, saw him. Without hesitation, he aimed his sniper scope at the strange robot's head.

"You dare to be distracted while fighting a villain like me? You simply don't take me seriously! Hard-boiled Shoot!"

Alu pulled the trigger, and a specially designed explosive bullet flew out of the muzzle, striking Danrito squarely in the head, exploding in a cloud of fire and dust. Despite the impressive name, this attack, seemingly a special move, was simply Alu firing the specially designed high-explosive bullet with a cool, serious expression. The name "Cold Shot" seemed to stem from a sentimental sentiment she'd received after watching a gangster drama.

Hit!

"What? Isn't this simple?"

Seeing the enemy being overwhelmed by her blast as usual, Alu turned her head confidently, just as she always did. She knew exactly how powerful her bullet was.

'No one can stay awake after taking that blow to the head! No one!'

Alu's sniper rifle has been carefully adjusted, and the power of the students' guns is also linked to their own strength and mystery. With multiple bonuses, Alu's sniper can indeed be said to be very powerful - a hit on the head would make even the invincible Chairman Hina feel uncomfortable!

"Kukuku~Have you seen the strength of us convenience stores? You guys..."

Just when Alu was about to say some gangster lines in her mind to satisfy her desire to perform and shock the remaining Abydos student opposite, Kayoko suddenly reached out and grabbed her belt, pulled the hem of her skirt and pulled her back into the classroom which served as a shelter.

"Ahhhhh! Kayoko, what are you doing pulling my skirt—Wow!"

When Kayoko suddenly pulled her skirt hard, the cool expression on Alu's face was instantly ruined. She hurriedly held down her skirt. Alu's face flushed and she was about to ask Kayoko what was wrong when she was pulled down by her and fell on her butt.

"Kayoko, what are you doing..."

Before he could finish his words, a flash of red light flashed through the smoke of the explosion. It was Danrito smashing the bottle of strength potion onto himself. Then, a familiar short hammer pierced through the smoke and struck Haruka with the force of lightning before she could react!

The force was so great that Haruka didn't even have time to utter a word before she flew backwards, was carried through a corridor of more than ten meters, and hammered into the wall at the far end of the corridor. The entire wall was cracked like a spider web with Haruka as the center!

"Eh?"

Mutsuki, who was holding a heavy machine gun, was stunned. When Haruka flew past her, she had not yet reacted, or rather, something she did not think had happened.

Although he is usually a little devil who likes to play pranks and always teases other people in the convenience house, Mutsuki also likes this small group that is always causing trouble. Mutsuki also has a very clear understanding of the strength of the other people in the convenience house.

However, Haruka, who served as the convenience store's shield, was defeated in an instant.

Mutsuki turned her head to look behind her. With her eyesight, she could clearly see that Haruka was hit by a thrown hammer, flew backwards for dozens of meters, and hit the wall. She was falling to the ground along with the hammer, and the halo above her head was gradually dimming.

For students in Kivotos, the loss of their auras generally had two possible causes: falling asleep or passing out. The force of this attack even surpassed the power of a main battle tank's main gun—Mutsuki had witnessed Haruka withstand several direct hits from a main battle tank and still manage to hold on. That battle was one of the most troublesome encounters the convenience store had ever encountered.

Well, just one of them.

"Haruka-chan? Fainted?"

Just a thrown hammer can knock out that weed-like Haruka?

Mutsuki's mind raced, calculating the approximate weight of Danrito's blow. "The hammer that just flew out had a force exceeding fifty tons? What kind of terrifying impact force is this? It's even more outrageous than the main gun of an ordinary tank, isn't it?!"

Mutsuki clenched his teeth and felt his expression become slightly distorted. It was the expression of someone who could no longer contain his own evil. "You're such a daredevil! Let me crush you!"

"Huh? If you can do it, then give it a try."

Danrito could feel that the knight gauge on his chest had actually dropped a small notch after being hit by the high-explosive headshot just now.

The key is not how much, but that it has indeed decreased.

"Did the power of that sniper shot just now even exceed the protection level of this Level X armor? This girl named Alu, the firearm in her hands can actually reach such a level?"

30. Shushu: Teacher! Please accept me as your disciple!

Danrito's expression remained calm as the data in his hand flashed again, generating his favorite weapon—the Gashacon. As he slowly walked forward, Danrito pressed the unlock button on the Gashacon, separating it from the beam bow into two short sickles.

"Another melee weapon?" Mutsuki saw the enemy had already stepped into the area where she had previously planted the bomb. Without hesitation, she pulled a button from her skirt pocket and pressed it. Although she had only planted a dozen or so bombs due to time constraints, the power of the bombs used to demolish a building was enough to cause trouble for the enemy!

"Haha~ Blow me into pieces!" Mutsuki raised his machine gun, his expression no longer the unfathomable little devil he usually was, but became more violent and pure.

As explosions echoed, Mutsuki's heavy machine gun opened fire, and finally, Alu and Kayoko, having recovered, returned fire. Bullet casings tinkled to the ground, and Danrito advanced steadily, swinging his twin scythes continuously. Regardless of whether he could block the bullets or not, he had to show off his cool!

"Wow wow wow wow that Kayoko is coming over here!"

Alu, whose eyes were filled with tears, steadied his gun and fired, while trembling, he asked Kayoko, who was frowning and pulling the trigger beside him, "What should we do now?"

"...The opponent's strength has exceeded expectations."

Kayoko reached out to change the magazine and stuffed the armor-piercing bullets in her pocket into the pistol. But it was just a pistol, and even if she used armor-piercing bullets, it would probably be just a drop in the bucket for the robot that could withstand even Alu's sniper rifle.

"Even Caesar Military Industries can't produce a robot of this strength..." Kayoko still believed that Danrito was a very powerful combat robot. She took out her laptop, intending to use her hacking skills to break into the opponent, but her attempts did not find the target at all, which made Kayoko have a different guess in her heart.

Maybe my previous thoughts were wrong?

"Hmm...the bullets from this machine gun are still a bit annoying."

Danrito was quite tired from swinging the sickle with both hands, so he simply stopped pretending and put down the sickle with both hands, letting the bullets hit his body - completely different from the previous shot. There was no need to worry about this, unless the gun in the girl's hand fired bullets similar to the previous one.

"Shake it again." Tan Lidou reached out and twisted the medicine bottle, "Begin mixing!"

"Harmony~"

Accompanied by a strange yet exciting electronic standby tone, the potion-mixing program of the "Alchemist Player" cartridge started up again. This time, the randomly mixed potion bottle was filled with a sticky, light gray potion that was still bubbling.

"Oh~ It's a different potion again this time! This cartridge really has endless possibilities." Danrito was pleased with the many new features in his newly developed cartridge. "I never thought that just adding a random mix of elements could bring so many changes to this cartridge. Even a developer like me is surprised!"

"What nonsense are you mumbling about!" Mutsuki fired the heavy machine gun in his hand until the barrel was red hot and smoking, but he didn't let go of the trigger. It was more like Mutsuki's small body was able to suppress the shaking of the heavy machine gun. How much strength did Mutsuki hide in his daily life? It really made people curious: "You coward, can you please die quickly!"

"Isn't it better not to say the word 'death'..." Alu, standing by, felt that Mutsuki's aura was even stronger than hers and was a little confused about the current situation. "Huh? I think I'm the president, right?"

He pulled out the "Alchemy Player" cartridge and inserted it into the special move holder slot. Danrito reached out and pressed the special move button. This time, the light from the special move converged at his feet, forming an object that looked like a potion bottle, filled with the gray potion mixed in the small bottle on the cartridge.

The winning move!

"Do you want to kick him out?" Tan Lidou raised his foot: "Go!"

Alchemy Critical Droplet!

Danrito kicked the bottle filled with pale grey liquid away. Seeing the bottle flying towards him, Mutsuki immediately swung his gun, aiming his bullet at the strange, glowing bottle. But how could an already completed special move be so easily dispelled?

"It's time to run! President! Mutsuki!" Kayoko stood up and shouted anxiously, "That thing is definitely not a good thing! Don't let it touch you!"

It was too late. The potion bottle of the ultimate move drew an arc and shattered on the ground. A large amount of potion spilled out, covering the three remaining people in the convenience house and a large area of ​​the surrounding floor.

"Ugh?! My body suddenly feels so heavy?!"

The moment she was exposed to the drug, Ah Lu suddenly felt as if a heavy yoke had been placed on her body. It was like being at a construction site all night, moving bricks, and then leaving work the next morning. The gun in her hand felt like a thousand pounds, and her legs felt like they were filled with lead, making it difficult for her to move. When she tried to walk, her eyes were spinning, like a drunk, dazed and disoriented, unable to tell east from west.

"Why... I feel so dizzy..." Kayoko's mind was in a mess. She couldn't organize any effective thoughts, let alone come up with a solution. In her dizziness, Kayoko sat down on the ground and struggled to crawl in one direction: "This potion... I'm not taking it anymore. It's so uncomfortable..."

"Uh uh uh…what the hell is going on…I'm going to throw up?!"

Mutsuki, who had been unleashing her fury, was the most agitated, and evidently, the most affected by the potion's effects. This extreme emotional shift, compounded by the potion's inherent debuff, left even the little demon Mutsuki with a look that was anything but pleasant. It could even be said that she had never worn such an embarrassing expression before!

Looking at the girls who fell into the potion, dizzy and unable to fight, Danrito's knight eyepatch flashed with an analytical light, and he already knew the effect of his ultimate move just now.

"Hmm... stun, slow, defense reduction, fatigue, and a delayed sleep effect. So it's a multi-debuff potion." Danrito shook his head and said regretfully, "How pitiful! She took so many negative status effects in one go. A potion like this, like the drop of nectar that healed Ayane before, is a SSR, or even UR-level prize."

"Should I say you are lucky or unlucky?"

"Gu-you cunning...sir...Zzz"

At the last moment, Kayoko finally figured out the answer to this question. After struggling to speak it out, she and the other girls in the convenience store fell asleep together under the delayed "sleeping" buff.

"I absolutely won't touch that potion." Ayane, who had been hiding in the classroom and only emerged after everything was over, said with lingering fear, "Those girls from the 68 convenience store were about to vomit. It must have been an experience more terrifying than torture!"
