The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

After watching Misaka Mikoto leave, Inoue Eika turned to Saten Ruiko and said, "Ruiko, give me my phone."

The phone was on the bedside table, within Inoue Eika's sight, but it was quite far away. Since he was currently unable to move around easily, he had to ask Saten Ruiko for help.

Turning around, Saten Ruiko took the phone and handed it to Inoue Eika, just as a rumbling sound came from outside the window.

Without even looking, Inoue Eika knew that three minutes had passed and the council's lackeys had begun their attack.

As Inoue Hideka took the phone, he said to Saten Ruiko:

"Tears, I'm leaving the outside to you. Don't worry about those ability users, just hold off the attacks from the drive armor."

"Huh? We don't need to worry about people with special abilities?"

Saten Ruiko asked in bewilderment.

Generally speaking, ability users should be more dangerous enemies than powered armor, so Saten Ruiko didn't understand why Inoue Eika would say that.

"Well, Ruiko can't hold off all the enemies by herself, and the attacks of ability users are diverse, making them very difficult to deal with. They... I'll take care of them!"

Leaning against the headboard, Inoue Hideka's face radiated confidence as she calmly spoke to Saten Ruiko.

Upon hearing this, Yun Chuanqin gave Inoue Yinghua a surprised look.

She was curious about where Inoue Hideka got her confidence that she could take on 50 powerful ability users and 200 ability users by herself.

"Well……"

After a moment's thought, Saten Ruiko understood Inoue Eika's idea.

Mind control.

Inoue Hideka now possesses the mind control ability of Shokuhou Misaki. As long as there are no other Devil Fruit users among these 250 people, or Devil Fruit users who can withstand the mental impact of the external brain, then manipulating their minds is just a matter of a moment.

Just thinking about how Inoue Eika had fainted after using her ability to control the pilot inside the powered armor, Saten Ruiko still couldn't help but give her a final word of advice:

"I understand, but Yinghua, you absolutely mustn't force yourself!"

"Okay!" Inoue Eika replied with a smile.

Saten Ruiko frowned.

She was not satisfied with this answer.

It's obviously just a perfunctory excuse; this idiot will just do whatever he wants anyway.

Of course, Saten Ruiko also knew that she definitely couldn't persuade this stubborn guy.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Saten Ruiko walked directly to the window, opened the window that was trembling from the aftershocks of the attack, and jumped out.

Inoue Eika removed her gaze from Saten Ruiko and dialed a number on her phone.

beep……

"Hello? Inoue?"

The voice that came through the phone was Aizali's.

Aizali is a magician, and the juvenile detention center's ability-enhancing devices are useless against him.

Inoue Hideka thought of two people to rescue Fujiwara Masaga: Aizari and Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who belonged to the magic side.

"Aizali, I'd like to ask you for a favor." Inoue Hideka didn't mince words and went straight to the point.

"Just speak frankly, Inoue. Since we are friends, your business is my business."

"Well, time is of the essence, so I won't go into too much detail. Aizali, get Tsuchimikado and go to the 10th District Juvenile Detention Center right away to rescue someone for me, the sooner the better. After you rescue them, bring them here to me. Oh, I'll send the photo and address to your phone later."

Sensing the urgency in Inoue Hideka's tone, Izali also became serious and replied solemnly:

"Okay, I'll set off now."

After hanging up the phone, Inoue Hideka found a photo of Fujiwara Masagat that she had taken while playing around on her phone, added Fujiwara Masagat's name, and sent it to Izali. Then she located her own position and sent it over as well.

A booming sound came into the room through the open window, and the battle outside seemed to have reached a fever pitch.

Somewhat worried, Inoue Eika put her phone aside and asked the arbitrator, who had been standing at the window peering out since Saten Ruiko left, disregarding the danger:

"How is Leizi doing?"

"So far, things are going smoothly. If Saten's ability is only used to hold off the Drive Armor, it's more than enough. However... if the other side has prepared an ability-reducing device, then things will be difficult."

"Probably not. Since the council has sent ability users to fight, they won't use ability-reducing devices indiscriminately."

While talking to the arbitration panel, Inoue Hideka picked up the water that Saten Ruiko had placed on the bedside table and took a sip.

Already very weak, and having talked so much after waking up, Inoue Eika's mouth was extremely dry.

"coming!"

As soon as he put down his water glass, Inoue Hideka sensed that a large group of people had entered his perception range.

What he sensed was the ability to manipulate human bodily fluids.

The principle behind Misaki Shokuhou's ability is to manipulate a person's mind by manipulating the fluids in the brain. Inoue Hideka, who uses an external brain implant to acquire Misaki Shokuhou's ability, is naturally the same.

However, he did not immediately take control of the people within his reach.

Although his physical condition is slightly better than when he escaped from the hospital with Saten Ruiko, he still cannot withstand the mental impact of using the external brain implant multiple times.

He is waiting.

Waiting for the opportune moment to deliver a fatal blow to all those with abilities.

"Arbitration, how many other people are in your villa besides you?"

In order to ensure that all intruders could be manipulated at once, Inoue Hideka asked the arbitration tribunal.

"Including the guards, there are 19 people in total."

Although they didn't understand why Inoue Hideka was asking this, the arbitration panel told them the truth.

Yun Chuanqin sat on the chair with her arms crossed, her fair and delicate legs crossed, as if she were watching a fight from the sidelines, with an expression of indifference on her face as she waited for Inoue Eika's performance.

She was a strategist by nature; devising plans and strategies was her primary duty.

She has already provided the strategy; the actual implementation should not have anything to do with her.

Chapter 427 Mind Control: The Complete Suppression of Low Abilities!

34…51…92…147…176…

Inoue Hideka carefully confirmed the number of people who had entered the range of his perception.

According to the arbitration ruling, there were 19 people in the villa besides him, so if we add the 250 people on the enemy side, the total number should be 269.

Before manipulating someone's mind, it's impossible to verify their identity.

Therefore, Inoue Hideka had to manipulate the arbitration panel along with his subordinates.

According to his senses, the people who entered the villa earlier had already reached the second floor and were about to break into the room, but Inoue Hideka had only confirmed 267 people at this time.

Two more people are missing; it's unclear whether they didn't make it in time or are hiding in the shadows in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

Although there were only two people missing, Inoue Hideka dared not gamble.

He cannot use his mind control abilities to manipulate everyone at this time.

Whether it's the arbitration trial or Yun Chuanqin, they are both purely powerless individuals.

And if he were to use his large-scale mind control abilities, he would very likely faint the next second, so...

boom!

The moment the door was flung open, Inoue Hideka's gaze sharpened as she stared at the first ability user who rushed in through the door—

This is a boy who is about sixteen or seventeen years old.

The boy was physically strong, with muscles on his arms that looked like they were about to explode and were exposed to the air, making him look like a physical ability user.

The moment he kicked the door open, the boy suddenly turned around and punched his companion behind him.

"Hey, what are you doing—"

The girl, who hadn't even rushed through the door, was caught off guard by the boy and was sent flying before she could finish speaking.

After knocking the girl away, the boy didn't stop and continued rushing towards his next target.

At this moment, the other ability users also snapped out of their panic. They didn't have time to investigate why the boy had switched sides at the last minute, so they all revealed their abilities and attacked him.

Through the wide-open door, Inoue Hideka calmly watched the enemies fighting each other outside. His face was even paler than before.

Sitting calmly in the chair with her arms crossed, Yun Chuanqin seemed to have discovered something interesting. A beautiful smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes shone even brighter.

Misaki Shokuhou, the top mentalist in Academy City, with a level 5 mental control ability, is someone she knows. Although they haven't had much contact, she is very familiar with Misaki Shokuhou's abilities.

Moreover, she also knew that Misaki Shokuhou and Eika Inoue had a special relationship.

Furthermore, as the strategist of the council, she also knows some secrets hidden in the shadows of Academy City that are unknown to ordinary people.

By observing the sudden change in the ability user outside the door and then analyzing the information she already knew, she had figured out exactly what had just happened.

The ability to control one's mind is an absolute crushing advantage against those with lower abilities!

With just a thought, all enemies can be rendered incapable of fighting in an instant!

That's probably... the source of his confidence, right?

If he weren't so physically weak right now, then those 300 powered armors, 50 powerful users, and 200 people with supernatural abilities would be nothing more than ants without any defenses or ability-reducing devices!

Yun Chuanqin sighed inwardly, finding it amusing.

The arbitrators had turned around and were looking at their enemies, who had suddenly started fighting amongst themselves, with a bewildered expression.

But he didn't speak, afraid of alerting the enemy outside the door and causing them to turn around and deal with him.

The defector was only a physical ability user, who was on the verge of defeat under the onslaught of various abilities. Just as he was about to be captured by the other ability users, another unexpected event occurred—

Two more ability users have turned against us!

In the instant he turned against them, he knocked out two ability users.

Three people have already fallen into a coma. Inoue Hideka only needs to control 266 more people to eliminate the threat from the ability users.

Of the three unconscious people he can sense now, there are only 265 people, and one person is still missing.
