Temperature Control in Academy City

Without the protection of iron sand, Shirai could not stay in the flames and disappeared the moment she appeared. When she reappeared, eight steel needles were already stuck between her fingers.

The fighting style of users of space system abilities relies on a combination of using flying items to attack and using high-speed movement to evade.

But its weaknesses are also obvious. It is easy to lose its combat effectiveness if attacked once.

Speaking of it, in the world of Toaru Majutsu no Index, most magicians and ability users have a sense of tearing apart.

That is, the blue bar is very long but the health bar is almost non-existent, just like a cannon made of glass.

A typical example is the bun hairstyle.

No matter how strong his abilities are, as long as he is attacked physically, Natsume will be defeated on the spot.

Because of this self-awareness, Natsume likes to sneak away every time he gets into a fight.

Under this premise, Shirai-san's tactical value is very high and he is a very useful tool.

At the moment when Stiyl was attacked by Misaka-senpai, a large number of fire snakes appeared out of nowhere and engulfed everything around them in a sea of ​​fire.

On the one hand, he used the fire to cover his body, and on the other hand, he was ready to chant again to summon the Witch King.

After stabilizing himself, Stiyl finally realized the problem.

In addition to the two level 5s, there seems to be a space mover among them, and Steele's mission target may have been moved away by that person by now.

In other words, this attack failed again.

And there was one thing that concerned Steele. The temperature control that he had always been on guard against had gone somewhere at this time and had not appeared since the beginning.

The fire snake turned everything in the corridor into charcoal, and Shirai-san's anger meter was full in an instant.

Everything here means a lot to her, and this is where she has always lived and worked.

Holding the wheelchair between his legs, Shirai-san's body shattered like foam. It was really inconvenient to fight with a wheelchair.

Shirai-san landed on the edge of a wall with a big hole in it, and vaguely saw the red-haired magician through the flames.

He quickly calculated the opponent's position, and shot out eight steel needles in his hand towards the direction of the red-haired magician.

Shirai-san can insert steel needles into other people's bodies, but he usually doesn't do that. At most, he just uses the steel needles to restrict the other person's movements.

In addition, people are different from the big trees standing on the roadside. As long as the other party starts to move, Shirai needs to make a prediction in advance, and the computing power consumed will be greatly increased.

The steel needle scratched across Stiyl's body, ready to nail the cloak behind him to the ground.

But everything was like a mirage, the red-haired magician's body began to blur, and the illusory image was almost indistinguishable from the real one.

This trick is very useful against those with spatial system abilities. It is impossible to determine the opponent's exact position, and it is impossible to use spatial abilities to attack.

The battle between the two sides seemed to last a long time, but in fact only about ten seconds passed.

With a deafening roar, a tall flaming creature appeared in the burning corridor, blocking most of the middle aisle.

"Be careful."

Shirai-san instantly appeared beside Misaka-senpai and hurriedly took her away from the attack range of the fire creature.

Just when the flame creature appeared and the red-haired magician's location could not be determined, the door of the Discipline Committee Branch 177 collapsed, completely announcing the end of their mission.

A magical girl flew backwards with a look of confusion and bewilderment on her face, and was then pulled back into the branch room by an arm of frost-filled gas.

After a battle that was not arduous, Natsume successfully messed up the branch and even opened a big hole in the wall, which made the ventilation function of the branch even better.

However, Natsume successfully prevented the fire in the corridor from spreading inside. In fact, the biggest loss of the 177th branch was just this big hole.

A certain girl with a bun didn't like the narrow environment, so in order to give full play to her advantages, she chose to leave the building.

With her ability, as long as the target is within her ability range, it doesn't matter whether she is at the scene or not. The only difference is the accuracy.

Natsume was suspended in mid-air, with two magical girls floating around him, and the arm he had just sent out brought another one.

Judging from their expressions, they were obviously confused by the girl with a bun again.

There were spiral patterns in his eye sockets, and the water ball on his head disappeared, as if he had completely lost his fighting power.

Really, wearing a big water ball on the head, it turns out that magicians are all weird guys.

Natsume thought that the other party was trying to prevent him from using shock therapy, but he soon discovered that there was something wrong with the water in the water ball.

Natsume has a deep understanding of water. She can easily control water mixed with impurities or other liquids. She can solve the problem by simply adjusting the formula.

But this water gave Natsume a headache. She adjusted the formula many times before she could barely evaporate the water, so it took several extra seconds.

You know, this level of thing is usually just a thought for Natsume.

And at the moment of evaporation, the liquids turned into colorful light.

In this way, it seems that this water is completely created by magic.

As long as magic is involved, some of the rules that Natsume is familiar with need to be redefined, and the method of control becomes very different.

Perhaps it’s because Natsume’s formula has a strong coverage, so even if there is some unknown barrier, it still has some effect on these magical liquids.

Chapter 279 Supersonic

Different fields, different laws, and a clear distinction between science and magic.

Even for that guy Accelerator, the reflexes on his body cannot be applied normally to the unknown magical field, because the vectors in magic are no longer familiar to him.

According to Natsume's current thinking, unless he can study all the products created by various magic.

By the way, you need to figure out how magical products change due to different spells or users, so that you can apply your abilities to these creatures normally.

In fact, there is not much difference from normal ability development. It is still about understanding information, finding connections and constantly trial and error. It’s just that knowledge of magic is like a heavenly book to Natsume Sonoko.

Apart from the two forces themselves, the human body, as the terminal that carries the force, is still so fragile and small.

After breaking the water ball on their heads, Natsume discovered that they had gills on their necks similar to those of fish, through which they breathed the oxygen reserved in the water.

I was also shocked when I saw it just now. This should also be a kind of magic. It is really magical.

However, these magical girls seemed to have underestimated their opponents again. Even with a magic water ball, they could not stop the clutches of a certain bun-haired girl. Natsume was known for her cruelty.

The three captives were placed in mid-air. Having fully learned from the previous experience, Natsume would not let the red-haired magician rescue them again.

The opening ceremony of the space elevator will begin tomorrow. Even if it is just for everyone to go up and have a look happily, she has to figure out what happened.

The beginning of many things is not decided by Natsume. Everyone, including Misaka-senpai, is the same. They just passively accept the malice of others.

But the trouble is there and we cannot ignore it. Even if it is a headache, we must try our best to solve the problem. If we bury our heads, we will become an ostrich.

Natsume doesn't like trouble, so he always hopes to solve the trouble once and for all, and then everything will return to normal, going to and from school every day.

There seems to be a saying that every ordinary day we live in may be a series of miracles.

In order to protect this miracle, Natsume can fight with anything, and the reason for the fight seems extremely ordinary from the beginning.

After regaining his consciousness, Natsume-san focused his attention on the remaining opponent.

Natsume's initial idea was to use a high-power shock wave to attack, using the power of the atmosphere to offset the opponent's flames.

The first attempt failed, but the second one went very smoothly.

Sensing the strong flames and the flaming creature in the corridor, Natsume turned the gun around, and a strong shock wave instantly poured in from the hole in the wall.

It's like removing a clog from a pipe.

Under the huge air pressure shock wave with an initial speed exceeding Mach 1, the flames on the body of the Witch Hunting King who was blocking the corridor suddenly became erratic.

The fire creature seemed to want to move forward against the airflow, but found that its body was moving backwards and it could only hold on to the walls on both sides.

Then the huge body could no longer hold on, leaving several obvious scratches deep into the wall, and it inevitably crashed into the wall on the other side of the corridor.

The Disciplinary Committee Branch 177 had no gate to block it, and was instantly blown all over the place by the huge shock wave. In fact, it was already in a mess because of Natsume-san.

The fire creature's body instantly knocked a two-person-high hole into the wall at the end of the corridor, and the steel and concrete behind it soon could not withstand the huge impact force.

The moment it was rushed out of the building, the monster's body began to decompose uncontrollably, and then turned into countless sparks, among which there was a little other light faintly mixed in.

As a shock wave passed by, both the fire creature and the raging sea of ​​fire in the corridor disappeared instantly, leaving only a charred environment.

"That thing disappeared again."

Natsume-san was a little surprised.

The fire creature was just blown out of the building, and then it disappeared. Is there any causal relationship here?

I remember that the last time this thing also disappeared out of thin air.

It's very confusing, the magician and the magic are the same.

So, Natsume likes people who are straightforward.

"You used this move without hesitation. Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting me and my elder sister?"

Following an invisible spatial fluctuation, Shirai inexplicably appeared next to Natsume Sonoko and glanced at the three magical girls lying not far away.

He skillfully found the rising air current near Natsume-san, with one hand holding the somewhat embarrassed Misaka-senpai.

Misaka-senpai's clothes turned a little yellow due to the high temperature, but fortunately she was not burned by the flames.

"No, I was observing you and Misaka-senpai's positions carefully. I'm not as reckless as you, Shirai-san."

After saying something back, Natsume stood there with a blank expression, seemingly still thinking about what had just happened.

"You guy."

Sitting in a wheelchair, Shirai couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the messy scene in front of him.

It seems that the Discipline Committee 177 Branch needs a major overhaul. Fortunately, no one on our side was injured.

"Natsume-san, have you found that person?"

Senior Misaka was not used to the feeling of stepping on an updraft, it was like she was entering some quicksand that would not sink.

Looking carefully at Natsume-san, Misaka-senpai immediately understood that Natsume-san in front of her was just a false shadow, with a sense of emptiness.

"Already found."

Natsume, who was somewhere unknown, was speaking through air waves. Whenever she felt it was necessary, she would choose to hide.

If a certain spatial movement is a combination of attack and evasion, then Natsume's conventional combat method is to integrate into and utilize the environment.

Although the opponent can also use a trick similar to his own projection, which should be called a mirage, but in front of Natsume, that person is still nowhere to hide.

The opponent's position was determined at the first moment. As long as the opponent used fire magic, he would not be able to escape Natsume's perception.

Natsume-san is completely transparent and is suspended in mid-air.

His two eyes observed the corridor with two walls connected, and his feet stepped on the rising air currents, like a walking ghost.

The place was still filled with a burning smell, but Natsume-san decisively blocked it off.

However, Natsume also discovered that there was a card in the corridor that was not completely destroyed and had some strange symbols drawn on it.

This seemed to have happened the last time I encountered a fire monster, Natsume couldn't help but think.

"When did another person appear?"

After a slight pause, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared in Natsume's head.

Moving at such an extremely fast speed, it arrived next to the red-haired magician in just a moment, and even Natsume found it difficult to react.

Natsume has no idea how to deal with a being whose physical speed exceeds the speed of sound. He cannot catch up with it, and may not be able to defeat it either.

However, judging from the information transmitted on the radar map, the outline of that person seemed somewhat familiar to me.

At this time, at the junction of the corridor and the stairs, the magician in the black cloak appeared again.

Next to him was a fashionable girl wearing trendy clothes.

On the belt around his waist was a knife more than two meters long, a white T-shirt was tied at the waist, and the lower body was a pair of worn jeans.

"It turns out to be Miss Kanzaki."

Seeing the other person's look, Natsume muttered in confusion.

Come to think of it, didn't Miss Kanzaki go back a few days ago?

"You've gone too far, Stiyl."

"Even if Naruto Arisa is really a saint, you took the initiative to attack two level 5s in Academy City this time. This is completely triggering a war between science and magic."

Kamiya Kaori put her hands on her hips and said somewhat dissatisfiedly.
