"Although I didn't want to disturb your reminiscing," Zhongli's calm voice rang out from the side, interrupting the conversation.

"As a necessary condition for fulfilling the [contract], please tell us the whole story."

Having regained some of her energy, Nana looked at Zhongli, who was as refined and handsome as a god, yet calm and approachable, and then glanced at Accelerator and Sexy Prisoner beside her, before nodding slightly.

.......

The story doesn't take long to unfold. Zhongli and the other two sit at the newly formed bluestone table, sipping tea.

Nana and the girl who had just been resurrected sat on the other side.

"So, you're either a powerless person or a murder pawn manipulated by the government, that shitty committee??" Accelerator's hand, holding a teacup, froze in mid-air.

His expression grew increasingly grim.

"Bullshit! I told you so, I told you to be wary of those committee members. Why wouldn't you listen?!"

He almost felt a sense of disappointment and frustration.

"Why!!! Why, even though I've already set a bad example, and you were able to read my lousy author's story in its entirety in the group chat, weren't you even a little bit wary??"

"You think you're so smart? You think you're infallible?!"

Accelerator slammed his teacup to the ground, and endless gales and crackling plasma gradually gathered above his head.

"I'm the number one esper in Academy City! My computing power surpasses that of a mainframe computer, and my intelligence earned me a PhD in physics at the age of ten. But even so, I've still lived a miserable life and made countless mistakes! What makes you think you're so great?!"

"Calm down!" Zhongli said slowly, reaching out to press down.

Accelerator let out a long breath.

The plasma and gale-force winds overhead did not dissipate.

He didn't sit down, but instead snorted coldly:

"Tch! I'm going to wander around. If I keep listening to this stupid woman, I might just destroy the whole city!"

At this moment, the sexy prisoner sitting to the side sighed helplessly: "You have done so many wrong things, but it seems that they are not irreversible."

"Right, Mr. Zhongli?"

"Huh??" Nana suddenly looked up: "Is there any way to salvage this situation?"

"Mr. Zhongli can reverse time and resurrect those who have long since died." The sexy prisoner stopped using his fancy words and simply said, "Whether it's possible in this world or not, let's ask Mr. Zhongli."

Nana quickly shifted her gaze to Zhongli.

Their hopeful gazes were impossible to suppress.

Zhongli met her gaze and slowly nodded.

"can."

"The people you kill can be resurrected, but it will take some time."

"But before that."

Zhongli suddenly stood up and looked up at the sky.

"Buzz buzz buzz~~~!"

The roar of the helicopter drew closer, filling our ears.

"Let's deal with the immediate issues first."

Chapter 8 The Incompetent Nana (3)

"The instructors from Hegang have lost contact?!"

"Nana Hiiragi's capture failed?"

"The committee is conducting inquiries..."

"The audience at the Imperial Palace in Toyama is waiting..."

"Dispatch ground troops to the locations where ability users are stationed; satellite imagery analysis begins..."

"Stand by the special ability user confrontation team..."

"Hmm... Team X, and also have Instructor Hegang prepare that new toy..."

"Oh, and don't forget to explain the situation to the audience; these kinds of unexpected events are a good way to boost ratings..."

"The last time something like this happened was more than a decade ago..."

"Of course, during Instructor Hegang's tenure, our country didn't have any problems for those three terms; in fact, they even expanded into many side businesses..."

"They're just some inferior beasts with special abilities, at most with the knowledge of high school students. What can they possibly do? Hmph!"

"Try to rescue Instructor Hegang; he enjoys the committee's deep trust."

"Yes, sir!"

......

"Buzz buzz buzz~~~!"

The sound of the helicopter gradually approached. Zhong Li looked up at the sky, then quickly turned back to the ground. The roar of the armored tracked vehicle's engine became increasingly clear.

"A reaction time of half an hour." He pondered for a moment, glanced at Nana Hiiragi beside him, and asked softly, "Your army's reaction speed is so fast?"

"Tch~~~!" Standing to the side, Accelerator, with his hands in his pockets, grinned with a sinister smile: "Do I even need to think about it? Of course, it was prepared long ago. The location is probably within a three to five kilometer radius of here."

"My world is far more technologically advanced than this one. At least in Academy City, even the mobile police and disciplinary committee members who can teleport don't have such a fast reaction speed."

"If I'm not mistaken, there's definitely an army base nearby. What we're seeing here is just an appetizer."

"Oh no!!!" Hiiragi Nana didn't argue with Accelerator's words; instead, she screamed, "If these people react this quickly, my classmates are in danger! Aside from the immortal ones, no one else can resist the army's weapons!!!"

"To be honest!" Accelerator's tone was arrogant and annoying, but what he said was true: "The superpowered people here are not only extremely weak, but they also have very obvious weaknesses. Why are these ordinary people who have modern weapons afraid of a counterattack from superpowered people? It's too strange."

"What can you possibly accomplish with such a small number of people? To rule over the rest of the ordinary people with less than 0.0000001% of the total population?"

"Of course, if any of you could reach my level, it might be understandable. But from your description, your so-called superpowered classmates could be wiped out by an ordinary person using an ordinary sniper rifle with a range of over a kilometer before any of you could even react."

"Huh???" Hiiragi Nana clearly hadn't thought about this kind of question; her mind was completely blank, as if she were stuck in a rut.

She wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.

Those rebuttals sounded illogical and absurd to her at that moment.

Meanwhile, the complaints from the other side continued.

"Also, that shitty committee said that superpowered individuals' powers might evolve to be even stronger, but have they shown you anything about them becoming stronger? Surely no one will say there are no records of that, right?"

"They won't tell you, do they want you to experience it firsthand? Pshaw!"

"Could these so-called 'superior citizens' just be enjoying the thrill of killing superpowered individuals??"

"You also said that the military entered the island the day after your friend died. How did they manage to time their arrival so precisely?"

"Could it be that they've been monitoring you all along, or even taking pleasure in your killings?"

These words struck Nana like a bolt from the blue, piercing through her heart.

She had never paid any attention to this situation before, nor had she ever even thought about it.

"Alright, I've said enough. You should think about it yourself."

Accelerator, hands in his pockets, turned and strode without looking back, lightly touching the ground. A gust of wind swept him away, sending him flying towards the helicopter in the sky.

"Mr. Zhongli, I'm going too. Nana girl, you've done a lot of bad things, you should repent properly."

"Girl, you're about to face a lifetime of responsibility."

After saying this, the sexy prisoner started running.

The loud stomping of footsteps pressed down and shattered the already broken ground, and the burst of dust almost buried the small garden.

The dust he kicked up and the sound of his explosion even drowned out the roar of the armored vehicles not far away.

Then, this human tank with its rear end and chin ran over the armored vehicle.

Zhongli, however, made no move.

He sat back down at the stone table, took a sip of tea, and calmly said, "If you want to bring back the classmates you killed in the past, I'll need about a month, and I can't move; I can only wait here. But we can't leave the classmates who are still alive unrecovered. How about this?"

He reached out and broke off another finger, tossing it forward. A brand new Zhongli appeared not far away.

"I will split my spirit into two and accompany you. However, my strength is not strong, so you need to be a little careful."

Nana did not move immediately.

She stood still, staring blankly at Zhongli's handsome, almost otherworldly face, before bowing deeply at a 90-degree angle.

“I have heard you say that you need to fulfill the contract and act in accordance with the contract when you do things, and the most important thing about the contract is fairness.”

“But after thinking it over, I feel I can’t afford the price you would pay to help me get to this point.” Nana gritted her teeth: “You can take my life, you can make me do whatever you want. Even if my soul has to repent in hell for a thousand years and be punished every day, I will be willing.”

"Thank you!"

Sitting beside the stone seat, Zhongli shook her head slightly, tapped the bluestone table with her slender, fair fingers, and watched the tea leaves bobbing up and down in the stone cup, a smile playing on her lips.

"Don't worry, I have already received part of the cost of your contract. It is a fair contract and transaction."

Hearing this answer, although Nana didn't know what of value she could have, she felt a huge weight lifted from her heart.

"Then I'll go, Mr. Zhongli Zhenjun. Thank you for your help, thank you."

Chapter Nine Demon God

The area surrounding this small park has been transformed into a scene resembling a natural disaster.

The raging winds that swept across the sky and earth engulfed helicopters, crushing them into pieces of metal, while the pilots lay unconscious on the ground without any injury.

In no time, the two helicopter squadrons were completely disbanded, and on the ground, there were more than a dozen soldiers in uniforms who had fainted.

The worst injury they suffered was a broken tibia and fibula in their thigh.

The aerial battle, though thrilling, ended quickly; Accelerator's abilities were ridiculously easy to use against these modern weapons.

A sudden gust of wind caused those modern weapons, developed with the wisdom of humankind over thousands of years, to crash to the ground like toys, one after another.

As for the weapons carried by those helicopters, whether they are machine guns, rockets, or actual missiles.
