A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 1139 The Last Material

After obtaining the contents of the parchment, Right Flame suddenly withdrew "Holy Right"—his goal had been achieved, so he naturally did not want to waste any more time here. Fighting Accelerator, a powerful figure from Academy City, would not benefit him at all.

So Fire on the Right abruptly ended the battle. He was returning to the Star of Bethlehem to complete the next steps in his plan.

Through shared perception, the right-hand fire guided the "power of the gods" to block the enemy, while he himself took a step back and returned to the floating fortress "Star of Bethlehem".

As the enemy vanished into thin air before his eyes, Accelerator was taken aback. He then touched his pocket—the scroll was still there, and the parchment was inside the scroll; it was neither damaged nor lost.

He breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then felt a little unsatisfied—the data collection work was only halfway done, and Accelerator felt there was still a long way to go before fully deciphering the contents of the parchment.

Immediately afterwards, Accelerator flew into the air and looked into the distance. He immediately saw a large floating fortress slowly approaching from high in the sky.

The fire on the right, which had just disappeared, was now standing at the edge of the fortress, seemingly having just arrived there.

"Looks like I'll have to figure out a way to move at high speed too," Accelerator exclaimed in astonishment.

The distance is too far; even if he flies there at full speed, it will still take him quite a while.

I wonder how the fire on the right was moved...

Accelerator gazed at the floating fortress in the distance, then suddenly narrowed his eyes: "That's..."

Although the distance is far, one-way traffic has a way to see clearly.

So he saw it: Touma Kamijou was also on that floating fortress!

“Nameless…” Accelerator turned around to look for Lin Wuming. He remembered very clearly that Lin Wuming’s mission was to help Kamijou Touma and to retrieve the parchment.

……

Touma Kamijou was indeed on the floating fortress "Star of Bethlehem" at this moment. He had gone to great lengths to get there.

While the Right Flame was away, Touma Kamijou conducted a series of explorations on the "Star of Bethlehem" in an attempt to find the "Staff," a spirit artifact that can be controlled from a distance.

Of course, it's impossible to find. Touma Kamijou himself was somewhat prepared for this—something so important, Right Flame would definitely carry with him.

Although he didn't find the "staff," Touma Kamijou didn't come away empty-handed.

He found a strangely dressed nun who, in a sense, was an acquaintance of his.

Sasha Chloezef, a combat nun of the Russian Catholic Church's "Destroy the White Book" unit, was also the person whose body was swapped by Archangel Gabriel during the "Angel Fall" incident.

The reason why Right Fire is forcibly forming an alliance with the Russian Catholic Church is largely due to this special individual.

But for some reason, after capturing Sasha and resummoning Archangel Gabriel, Archangel Gabriel was able to act on his own, leaving Sasha, the medium of the summoning, on the Star of Bethlehem.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, especially since it was Sasha, whom I had met once before—though it wasn't her at the time. Touma Kamijou immediately formed an alliance with the nun, preparing to fight against the Right Flame together.

That being said, the gap in strength is ultimately an objective and insurmountable peak.

Touma Kamijou also didn't know how to defeat the powerful and almost unbeatable Right Flame.

Not only that, they are now trapped in a floating fortress ten thousand meters above the ground, and even if they wanted to escape, they had no way to do so!
With no other options and in utter desperation, at Sasha's suggestion, Touma Kamijou had no choice but to continue exploring the floating fortress, searching for the remote-controlled spirit artifact "staff" and a place resembling a "control room."

—Perhaps they could find runes or magic circles to maintain flight, and then destroy them with "Imagine Breaker," maybe they could land. But just as they were exploring, the Fire on the Right returned.

The Right Flame, the absolute controller of the "Star of Bethlehem," immediately noticed the two people moving about and took action against them.

—Sasha Chloezef can be ignored. She was a medium used to summon angels and has now lost her value; moreover, her own strength is limited, so she poses no threat even if left unattended.

Therefore, the Right Fire manipulated the terrain of the "Star of Bethlehem" to separate and drive the nuns to other places.

—As for Touma Kamijou, his right hand is indeed a threat, but it is also the last piece of material needed for the plan.

In fact, Right Flame knew about it as early as when Touma Kamijou infiltrated the "Star of Bethlehem," and it was even his deliberate leniency that allowed Touma Kamijou to successfully ascend to the "Star of Bethlehem."

After all, for the Fire on the right, this is equivalent to delivering goods to their door.

Now that our forces are strong enough, it's time to gather the final materials.

Taking advantage of home ground and superior strength, Right Flame easily separated Kamijou Touma and Sasha, and cornered Kamijou Touma.

……

"Touma Kamijou is about to be finished," Accelerator said.

As he spoke, he used his hand to block Lin Wuming's "psychic acceleration cannon".

"Lin Wuming, stop playing around here and go do your thing." Accelerator pointed to the floating fortress hanging in the distance.

“Protecting Touma Kamijou is your mission, isn’t it?” Accelerator said. “As for the parchment, I’ll keep it safe for you; it won’t be taken by anyone else.”

Accelerator decides to switch opponents again.

Lin Wuming's mission is one thing, but the most important thing is that Accelerator needs to continue collecting data, and Archangel Gabriel is the most suitable target at the moment.

Without giving Lin Wuming a chance to explain, Accelerator created a whirlwind and offered him a ride.

Lin Wuming was also very decisive. He didn't need to collect data, nor was he picky about who the enemy was—it was a good opportunity to change opponents and verify his newly improved strength.

Riding on the east wind of Accelerator, Lin Wuming launched "Instant Teleportation" repeatedly in mid-air.

The increased strength, coupled with the absence of obstacles in the air, allows each movement to cover a considerable distance.

In less than ten seconds, Lin Wuming appeared in the sky above the "Star of Bethlehem".

Just then, Right Fire and Touma Kamijou were "fighting"...

"Ah? Damn it!"

He couldn't help but exclaim in genuine amazement, because Lin Wuming had just witnessed the scene of Right Fire cutting off Kamijou Touma's right arm!
In short, Lin Wuming was ultimately a step too slow.

Or rather, it was because the right-hand fire moved too quickly, blocking Touma Kamijou the moment he "dealt with the kill," defeating and knocking him down, and then cutting off his right hand.

The last piece of material I planned to acquire—"Imagine Breaker"—has been successfully obtained!
