A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 1077 Fire on the Right
The sudden transformation of the tourist city of Avignon into a ghost town puzzled Lin Wuming and Wu He. Considering that they were currently on a special mission to "penetrate deep behind enemy lines," they had reason to suspect that they had fallen into an enemy trap.

“I…” Wuhe glanced at the palace that was right in front of him, but then turned back. “I’ll go investigate the area.”

Finding an escape route before launching an attack is Amakusa's style of action.

Lin Wuming nodded: "Go ahead, but don't go too far; also, even if it really is a trap, don't worry, as I said, there's very little that can stop me now."

“That’s right, Lin Wuming.” A dark red figure appeared in front of the two without warning. “After all, even a strong person like Houfang Zhishui was defeated by you.”

Lin Wuming was certain that, up until just now, there was absolutely no third person in this area—this was the result he obtained through his mental scan, and it couldn't be wrong.

But just like that, without any warning, this man appeared.

She was tall and slender, wearing a red-based suit, and her hair was also a dark red.

Just as Accelerator gives a "pale" impression, the first impression of this man is "dark red".

He wasn't particularly strong, but he exuded a presence that was impossible to ignore.

Even though it was their first meeting, such distinctive features allowed Lin Wuming to immediately guess the other person's identity.

"Fire on the right."

“That’s right, it’s me.” Right Flame nodded with a smile. “It’s a pleasure to meet you here, Lin Wuming.”

“Wuhe,” Lin Wuming said, “Go and confirm immediately—there cannot be any other people within a ten-kilometer radius.”

Wuhe suddenly woke up, clutching her travel bag tightly. Despite her reluctance, she nodded vigorously and turned to run away into the distance.

The fire on the right made no move, letting the girl go far away, before laughing and saying, "Ten kilometers? That's no escape from my attack range."

As he spoke, Right Fire pulled his right hand out of his pocket; at the same time, the air behind his right shoulder began to distort.

“Don’t worry, all the citizens and tourists in this city have been evacuated. It’s a ghost town now,” said Right Flame. “It’s the perfect battlefield for us!”

After saying this, Right Fire didn't waste any more words and launched an attack directly.

So decisive?
Lin Wuming was surprised. Although he knew that this battle was unavoidable when he saw the fire on the right, was he really not going to say a few more words and just start fighting?

Despite his internal monologue, Lin Wuming was still able to launch an attack using his mental power almost simultaneously.

He had previously comforted his colleague Wuhe on several occasions, saying that there were not many people in this world who could stop him.

That's true, but unfortunately, Right Fire is one of those few people.

To be honest, Lin Wuming doesn't have any particularly good solutions for dealing with this extraordinary opponent at this stage. He can only take it one step at a time.

Lin Wuming's surprise did not affect his actions. His Nen ability was already prepared. With a thought, the giant hand that had flattened the ice giant not long ago reappeared and slammed towards the fire on the right!

Seeing this attack, Right Fire's lips curled into a playful smile. He abandoned his original attack plan and met the attack with his right hand.

The third hand—a second right hand that grew from his right shoulder.

A massive, angular, and terrifying right hand—the "Divine Right." It is not made of flesh and blood, nor is it a shape that Lin Wuming simulated using sand and other materials, but rather a "right hand" formed from pure "power."

Two enormous hands of equal size collided in mid-air as if high-fiving, producing a sound...

There was no sound at all.

As if it were just a phantom, the hand that Lin Wuming had pieced together was erased without making a sound.

"Heh." Right Fire chuckled, seemingly finding it amusing.

In fact, the fire on the right was meant for Lin Wuming.

After witnessing the duel between Lin Wuming and Misaka Mikoto in Academy City last night, Right Fire realized that Lin Wuming was currently the most worrisome main fighting force in Academy City.

Compared to the still-developing "Imagine Breaker," Lin Wuming is undoubtedly a greater threat now. To ensure the smooth implementation of his plan, Right Flame wants to eliminate this threat.

They had initially thought that Lin Wuming was always hiding inside the Academy City headquarters and that they wouldn't have a chance to make a move against him in the short term; but who would have thought that in less than half a day, they would receive information that Lin Wuming had left Academy City.

Originally, it was the Left Side who was supposed to come to Avignon to retrieve the "C Document," but after confirming that Lin Wuming had left Academy City and come to Europe, the Right Side changed the arrangements and personally took action; even the information about the "C Document" was leaked at the Right Side's behest.

There is only one objective—to fight Lin Wuming, or more accurately, to "defeat Lin Wuming," and to eliminate this threat before implementing his plan.

In the opinion of Right Fire, Lin Wuming is indeed very strong, so strong that he himself has to take action to deal with him. No one else would be a match for Lin Wuming!
On the other hand, Right Fire has absolute confidence in his own strength. He firmly believes that as long as he takes action, he will definitely be able to defeat Lin Wuming.

This is not arrogance, but a characteristic of the "divine right".

—I was born this way, I was destined to win; this is my mission.

The fire on the right withdrew its gaze from the sky above and observed Lin Wuming's expression with great interest.

Right Fire developed a curiosity about this "great enemy of the Roman Catholic Church" that went beyond mere "hostility".

The Right Flame was born with a "mission" on its shoulders. It is a born strongman and a natural leader destined for a high position. Because of the existence of the "Divine Right", the Right Flame is literally "undefeated".

Such a right-wing fire not only finds it difficult to find kindred spirits, but even having an "equally matched" opponent is a luxury.

At that moment, the superhuman in front of him gave him hope.

—A suitable opponent, an opponent worth taking action against.

This discovery genuinely excited Right Fire; so when he saw Lin Wuming also conjure a giant hand to launch an attack, Right Fire didn't mind playing along.

However, "playing and indulging" is nothing more than that. Right Fire is ultimately a leader, a redeemer, and a changer; burdened with a mission, he cannot allow himself to be too indulgent.

The so-called "evenly matched opponents" have come to an end.

Right Fire raised his real right hand and pointed it at Lin Wuming opposite him.
