A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 641: The Ransom of Oreos

"Huh? The same gold nugget? What does this mean?" Kamijou Touma on the other end of the phone was confused, but he did not continue to ask questions. Instead, he suddenly exclaimed.

Then, communications were interrupted.

Lin Wuming's heart was beating fast, and he looked up in the direction of the tenth school district.

Because of the long distance and the obstruction of buildings, it is of course impossible to see Misawa Juku from here.

However, the blood-red beam of light that fell from the sky could not be stopped no matter what.

So, it finally arrived, one of the Roman Catholic Church's trump cards—the Gregorian Choir's holy spell bombardment.

The magnificent attack, which could be described as a sudden change in the universe, was fleeting. Because it was a precise bombing, it surprisingly did not produce too much aftermath.

From a distance, it appears to be just a visual effect on a grand scale.

"What was that?" The girls also saw that scene. Misaka Mikoto thought of the scene she had witnessed not long ago, "Is it the Dragon King's Sigh again?"

"No, that's the Gregorian Choir," Index said gravely. "It's a great magic created by 3,333 monks gathered in the cathedral and chanted holy spells together. It's a unique skill that the Roman Catholic Church is proud of."

As Index finished her words, the blood-red beam of light appeared again, but this time it was slightly different from before - it did not fall from the sky, but shot out from the ground to the sky as if it were replayed.

Lin Wuming suddenly exclaimed "Ah".

The famous scene reappears, and the alchemist Oreos is still as awesome as ever!
Lin Wuming was not worried at all about the safety of Oreos, Kamijou Touma, and Stiyl who were also inside Misawa Academy.

As long as Oreos is willing, they cannot die inside Misawa Academy.

"Backlash... is it the effect of the 'Golden Great Evolution Technique'?" Index used her extensive knowledge to deduce the truth of what happened at Misawa Academy.

"Are all magic attacks this grand?" Misaka Mikoto exclaimed. "It's much more gorgeous than ours..."

The previous "Dragon King's Sigh" was like this, and the current "Gregorian Choir" is also such a grand offensive that penetrates heaven and earth.

You know, even at level 5, it is impossible to launch an attack of this magnitude... at least the visual effect will not be so gorgeous.

"Don't underestimate yourself," Lin Wuming said, "Your lightning is no less powerful or magnificent than their great magic."

"Eh, is that so?" Misaka Mikoto thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Since Wuming Senior said so, then it must be correct."

Satisfied, Misaka Mikoto pointed in the direction of Misawa Academy and asked, "Well, should we go over there and take a look?"

Although it was a bit dangerous, she was very concerned about what was happening over there.

Lin Wuming called Kamijou Touma back on his cell phone, but the call showed that the other party was out of service area.

I don’t know if Oreos has closed the permission for external communication, but it is obviously impossible to get first-hand information from Kamijou Touma.

Lin Wuming looked at the girls around him, then looked down at the golden cube, knowing that he could not continue playing in the amusement park today.

"Then let's go to Sanze Academy and take a look at the situation." Lin Wuming said, "and take this piece of gold with you."

Having just witnessed a shocking magical attack, everyone lost interest in gold for a moment.

Lin Wuming knew very well that according to the development of the original plot, after the attack and defense battle of the "Gregorian Choir", the people sent by the Roman Orthodox Church had completely lost their threat.

As for the alchemist Aureos, according to what Kamijou Touma had just said on the phone, he was no longer an enemy.

Therefore, we can conclude that Misawa Academy is no longer dangerous and can be approached with confidence.

That's why Lin Wuming suggested that everyone go and join in the fun.

If possible, entering Misawa Academy in a non-hostile state to observe their "Golden Great Evolution Technique" would also be a good experience. Lin Wuming and his group quickly arrived at the Tenth School District, the block where Misawa Academy was located.

When they arrived, they could see a group of people in strange costumes fleeing the place in panic.

There is no doubt that they are members of the Knights Templar sent by the Roman Orthodox Church to fight against the traitors.

Lin Wuming ignored them and went straight to the downstairs of Sanze Academy.

The unique building consisting of four towers is intact and there is no sign that it has suffered a devastating disaster not long ago.

Just as Lin Wuming looked up at the building, Oreos also walked out of Misawa Academy.

Following him out were Stiyl and Kamijou Touma, who was also in a wheelchair.

The other is a long-haired girl wearing a shrine maiden's costume - Himegami Aisa.

"Hello again, Lin Wuming." Aureos stepped forward, "My substitute..."

Lin Wuming turned and looked at Misaka Mikoto.

The latter was somewhat reluctant, but still manipulated the electromagnetic force to move a huge piece of gold to the front.

"Thank you for your cooperation," Oreos said. "Although they are not of equal weight, but..."

As he spoke, Oreos waved his hand behind him, and saw a golden light flying out from inside the gate of Misawa Academy.

Misaka Mikoto subconsciously manipulated the electromagnetic force to stop it.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a piece of shining gold!

Overall, it was much smaller than Oreos's Stand No. 2, but it was also incredibly heavy.

"This piece is only five hundred kilograms, but it is indeed real gold," said Aureus. "Consider it my payment of ransom and compensation."

The main reason why Oreos paid the "compensation" was not only because he wanted to restore some of his impression in Index's mind, but also because he wanted to continue to occupy Misawa Academy for a while.

In order to prevent Lin Wuming and others from interfering with him, Oreos chose to spend money to avoid disaster.

Oreos is still a "vampire" now. This is the sacrifice he made to save Index - using his own body as a test subject to study the method of vampire transformation.

Now that he knew Index no longer needed to be saved, this research was meaningless.

Of course, Oleios didn't want to continue being a vampire.

Under the premise that the "blood-sucking killer" does exist, becoming a vampire will undoubtedly add a fatal weakness to yourself, which is really not worth the loss.

As a researcher among magicians, Oreos naturally left a way out - if he wanted, he could turn back into a human being.

The only problem is that Oreos saved his "human template" in Stand No. 2...

To Aureus, the price of some not-so-precious gold was worth it to restore himself to human form.

Moreover, because Stand-in No. 2 was beaten so badly, it would take some time to completely repair it before it could be used as a "template".

Therefore, Oreos will need to continue to occupy Misawa Academy for a while.

Essentially, it's a transaction.

Lin Wuming did not refuse Oreos's deal, he accepted the gold nuggets without hesitation.
