Stray Chapter 58: A world where no one gets hurt
"I'll come, I'll come! Hurry up, don't mess around here!"
Finally, the brown-haired girl who couldn't bear it rolled her eyes, rushed forward, and snatched the digital camera from Xia Ran's hand.
She doubted that if she wasn't more decisive, this guy would really be able to start on-site teaching and teach the woman how to use digital equipment and master shooting skills until she learned it... Not to mention the spiky head of Kamijou Touma , She felt a little blood pressure soaring when she saw this scene.
Can you look at the occasion, obviously now is not the time to do this kind of thing!
is like an earthquake, everyone is busy running for their lives, but some people have no sense of crisis at all, and even have the mood to consider whether their computer is turned off, and whether the game has a good backup file... When other people saw it, they almost died of anger.
"You?" The magician raised his eyebrows and looked at Misaka Mikoto with suspicious eyes, without concealing his distrust: "Would you?"
The average girl should have mastered the skills of taking pictures. Even the skills of retouching pictures are not considered advanced advanced skills, and they are just basic necessary skills.
But it belongs to the branch of the skill tree that only ordinary girls light up... As for the girl with brown hair in front of me, no matter how you look at it, she is not an ordinary girl, so Xia Ran seriously doubts that she is not like this at all essential skills for girls.
used a forty-five-degree bevel mechanical repair method on the vending machine. When he saw Kamijou Touma, he chased each other all the way to fight, and when he was bored, he went to the Wushuang little punk...
This is the Railgun!
Retouching pictures and beautifying her face, taking various photos all the time, and sharing life events in her personal space, it is really hard to think of Misaka Mikoto.
"You don't have to worry about this, just leave it to me... Please resolve this matter quickly, please!" Misaka Mikoto gritted her teeth and said, the slender fingers holding the digital camera couldn't help but squeeze her knuckles. At the same time, the camera made some strange noises.
worriedly glanced at the digital equipment he had just bought, Xia Ran hesitated for a while, but nodded, and decided to trust the other party: "Then get ready, find a good shooting angle, and wait a while. Don't hesitate, the chance is only a moment, you must take a perfect shot for me..."
"Got it! Can you hurry up, don't be so rude!" Black lines appeared on the girl's forehead with brown hair.
As for Kamijou Touma, who was doing his best to resist the beam of light, his lips were shaking. He didn't know what the complicated emotions in his heart were, grief or despair? Or maybe some of both?
Why are you so unfortunate!
Die, die, die! I don't know if it was an illusion. He always felt that his right hand was numb, just like the vegetable leaves on the edge of the oven, which were rapidly losing moisture under the high temperature and became dry and withered...
But he was able to persevere until now, obviously from the beginning, he has heard strange noises from his wrists, creaking, it sounds very bad, but he just asked him to give hold up.
The wrist was not broken, and the fingers were not broken due to the majestic pressure. Even the fingernails were abnormally strong, not cracked or bleeding. His right palm was still tenaciously resisting the direct rays of the magic beam. shock.
What is the reason?
Isn't it actually not much time delay, starting from the moment when I felt I couldn't hold on, until now, a few seconds have passed? Just because I feel unbearable and I feel that I have reached the limit, so I have such a feeling that time seems to be passing very slowly?
The hedgehog-headed boy thought this subconsciously, it seems that the so-called "relativity" is the same thing, when a person is with the person he likes, the happy time is always so short, a day is like a Hour.
And when a person suffers from pain, such as being forced to hold a red-hot iron block or something, the pain time seems to pass very slowly, an hour is like a long day.
"Yes, it is necessary to have such necessary qualities. You can't be like some people, you don't know if it's a girl, you can't even take pictures, how can you get married in the future..." The magician is very Nodding with satisfaction, he said happily.
Although I don't know what Misaka Mikoto's photography skills are and whether they are professional or not, he is worthy of his praise for this responsibility and momentum.
Which looks like some girl, and also said that she is a top ten magician in London, less than twenty "saints" in the world, in fact, she is a mechanical idiot who can only use a mobile phone, even a camera I don't know how to use it at all, and even asking her to help take a photo is at a loss, flustered and confused.
He turned around and waved his hand, directly taking away the seven days and seven knives he had just returned to Kanzaki Kaori, and strode forward in the direction of Kamijou Touma.
“…”
“…”
Only Misaka Mikoto was left biting her lower lip, holding up the digital device in her hand in anger.
As for Kanzaki Kaori next to her, she was stunned by herself. She remained in the same position as before, subconsciously listening, reaching out to take the camera that someone handed over, forcing herself at a critical moment. Work hard to learn advanced machine usage methods.
In the blink of an eye, the job was snatched by the girl with brown hair next to her. Not to mention, that person also said some inexplicable words in front of her... This made the girl "Saint" suddenly tremble with anger after reacting, and her whole body was cold with sweat and hands and feet were cold on a hot day.
She felt that the words just now were full of oppression against her. Can this person be better?
"...you're finally here..."
The boy Kamijou struggled to withstand the beam of light, with a sad face, listening to the sound of footsteps approaching behind him, and finally felt that there was hope in life, and it was really not easy for him.
Although I have always been unlucky and have always been involved in various bad situations and accidents, I have an unfortunate constitution, but such an unfortunate encounter as today is still the first time for Kamijou Touma first experience.
I feel like I fell off a cliff, I finally grabbed the edge of the cliff, but I still fall down at any time, there is a risk of death...
And the people on the edge of the cliff not only did not come to help the first time, but they were still there talking and laughing. They were in the mood to find angles, take photos, and prepare to send them to the circle of friends afterward... I beg him Mental shadow area?
"Of course, I will only be absent and never be late." Xia Ran nodded humbly, passed Kamijou Touma's position, and continued to walk forward, which was Index's direction.
The little silver-haired nun has no eyes, only a blood-red magic circle is projected to the outside world, and she is simultaneously activating two magics, "St. George's Santuary" and "DragonBreath" .
The former is that the magic circle is centered near the center of her eyebrows. As the contact point of the two magic circles, cracks are formed in all directions and extend to every corner of the space, like a barrier, preventing anyone from getting close to the silver-haired little nun.
This is the most effective magic against single-target intruders, which is activated by the defense system "Auto-Scribe" when Index is in crisis.
The latter is based on the former. From the depths of the cracks in the space created by "St. George's Santuary", a white light beam with a diameter of about one meter is emitted. The offensive magic of the terrifying power of a dead dragon.
There is some kind of "thing" on the inside of the crack in that space.
The beam of light is emitted by it.
Kamijou Touma can't completely defeat the beam of light, because the beam of light is constantly being generated, and the processing speed of the fantasy killer cannot keep up with the generation efficiency of the beam of light, unless the core that makes the beam of light is defeated... But he can't do this either, no Said whether he could suppress the light beam approaching the past step by step and approaching the core.
He also sensed the existence of that "thing" inside the dark crack, and his intuition told him that it was a great terror that he was absolutely invincible. As long as he was seen, he would definitely not survive.
But Xia Ran didn't feel this way at all. He dragged the two-meter-long command knife straight, his long black hair swayed back and forth gracefully behind him, step by step approaching the dark crack, his eyes were straight Gaze into something deep.
locked the target from the existence level, he raised the long blade, clenched his hands tightly, and stood still not far in front of the dark crack.
"Come on, rush out and let me slash you to death..." The magician whispered like this, his eyes were full of eager anticipation, but the breath gradually settled down, and for a while there was a kind of feeling on his body. God's condensed master atmosphere.
“…”
“…”
At the same time, whether it was Kamijou Touma or others, they all held their breath subconsciously. After all, according to convention, the next scene should be extremely exciting and eye-popping, right?
Although Misaka Mikoto was unhappy, she subconsciously raised the digital camera in her hand, ready to capture the next thrilling scene... As for the shivering Kanzaki Kaori, it was at this time Suddenly woke up.
Wait, what did this guy just say? He wants to... kill the "Dragon King"?
But, before the girl "Saint" had time to do anything, the scene suddenly changed!
!
Kamijou Touma suddenly felt a light in his hand, and the huge force that he could not resist disappeared suddenly without warning, and he still maintained the posture and direction of exertion, so he suddenly turned to He threw himself forward, and slammed into the ground with a solid fall, almost not letting go.
And the first time the light beam disappeared, the dark cracks also quickly began to disappear, and the cracks that spread to all directions disappeared into the void in the blink of an eye, as if they had never appeared.
The center of the largest space crack not far from the eyebrows in front of Index is also shrinking rapidly, as if the source of the phenomenon of tearing the space is also because of encountering Xia Ran, she fled when she saw her figure , did not dare to stay too long for a moment.
"Wait! What's the matter with you?!"
The magician's face changed, and he quickly threw away the knife in his hand. He rushed over and grabbed his hands before the dark crack completely contracted. There is a tail that turns and runs away.
He dragged a part of the thing with one hand and pulled it out, and the other hand was directly clenched into a fist and greeted with force
"Where's my world-class lens?! You get me out! Come out! What the **** is going on with you!!"
“…”
“…”
About because the incident happened suddenly, everyone at the scene was shocked, and they were speechless by the scene in front of them.
"Don't be like this! Don't be like this! Forget it..." Kanzaki Kaori finally came back to his senses, and immediately rushed up to try to stop Xia Ran's excesses, with a wry smile and a frightened expression on his face .
And the others also woke up one after another, like Misaka Mikoto and Kamijou Touma also rushed forward.
Several people worked together, and finally managed to hold the hands and feet of the excited magician and pulled him back.
And the dark crack also seized this opportunity, completely shrinking into a point the size of a needle tip, and finally disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared. This appearance can even make people think of its escape. At that time, how frantic it was.
"Failed to fight against a single intruder.... According to the information of 130,000 books in the "Library", the magic formula is being re-obtained, and preparations are being made to execute specific magic for countering the intruder..."
The little silver-haired nun who was manipulated by invisible threads like a puppet, the bright red in her eyes also faded away, leaving only empty eyes with no emotion and brilliance, but only after less than a second At the same time, she began to speak in the same dry, stick-reading tone.
"Wait! How can I let you mess around again!"
Kamijou Touma was shocked, and without thinking, he turned around and threw himself up, roaring furiously.
…
…
After half an hour.
The window beside the bed was open, the pure white curtains swayed in the wind, and outside the window was the night view of Academy City. Since the walls, floor and ceiling are all white, there is an error in the sense of distance, so it feels very spacious.
The bad boy priest with red hair lay quietly on the bed, his eyes were closed, his body was bandaged in many places, and he still did not wake up. A large group of people stood around the hospital bed, making the space of the ward crowded. Everyone did not speak, but their expressions were subtle and complex.
Index bit her finger and looked around, probably out of fear of the silence at the scene, she didn't dare to say anything, she just quietly shrank behind the spiky-haired boy beside her.
"Cough, don't be sullen, everyone is happy, isn't the matter resolved now?"
Xia Ran raised her fist to her mouth, coughed lightly, and was the first to break the unusual silence.
"A world where no one gets hurt, it's that simple, isn't it nice?"
“…”
“…”
silently glanced at Stiyl who was lying on the hospital bed in front of him, Kanzaki Kaori twitched the corners of his mouth, didn't try to refute the man's words, just sighed and said, "Yeah, really That's great...Thank you for letting us find out."
"You're welcome, just remember what you promised..." The magician looked down and checked the camera in his hand, regretting that the world-class shot he was looking forward to didn't come out.
"I promised... things?" The girl froze for a while, what did she promise?
"By the way, senior, aren't you going to explain it to us?" Satian Leiko couldn't help but ask this question at this time. Her eyes seemed to have the brilliance of small stars, which were shining. "Is the previous ones magic?"
"Magic...what's the joke?" Mai Ye Shiri's mouth twitched, and she denied such a ridiculous possibility for the first time.
"Yes, how could there be magic..." Misaka Mikoto echoed, but even though she said such words, her eyes were fixed on someone for a moment.
's arrogant character is doomed to her awkward behavior, and she won't be as frank as Saten Leiko.
"That's right, you are all so old, it's time to accept the reality, shouldn't you have known it long ago? How could such an unscientific thing like magic exist? It's just a fiction in fantasy works. Things are different from our superpowers in reality."
The magician said solemnly
"In fact, everything just now is just an illusion. It's the reason why I used the ability, because I used the mirror..."
“…”
“…”
Everyone stared at him with embarrassment.
"Speaking of which, this time... I really thank you."
At this time, Kamijou Touma, who noticed the cold scene, took a deep breath, he took the initiative to walk forward, touched the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Thank you for your help, I... I don't know if I should How can I thank you, but if there is a need for me, I will definitely take responsibility!"
"Is that so..." Xia Ran glanced at him and patted the other person's shoulder approvingly, "Very good! Responsible!"
"Haha..." The spiky-haired boy was a little embarrassed to be praised.
ding bell bell
The monotonous ringtone of the phone rang.
Xia Ran answered the phone: "Hello? Oh, it's me...what? Guard branch...the cost of repairing and rebuilding the destroyed street? Eh, this..."
The corners of the spiky-haired boy's eyes twitched desperately. He suddenly had the urge to travel back ten seconds and kill himself!
Idiot! What a fool! Why would you say such a thing at this time!
Repair and reconstruction costs for several streets and entire blocks...
Every cell in the body is trembling, and the hollow pupils of the spiky head seem to reflect a sad future.
