The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

A large number of people are converging in this direction.

Fully armed guards, acting on orders from the council, are slowly surrounding the entire ground area of ​​the research institute.

The misled disciplinary committee members and the ignorant ordinary students, driven by their sense of justice and their anger towards Inoue Hideka after seeing the horrific images, spontaneously moved closer to the Advanced Equipment Research Institute.

Even in the dark of night, despite the risk of being caught by the dormitory supervisor, many people still escaped from the dormitory and came to this place where the culprit they considered to be torn to pieces was hiding!

……

Just less than half an hour ago, someone posted online that they had witnessed several unfamiliar faces entering and leaving the Advanced Equipment Research Institute, along with photos.

A little investigation by those with a keen eye revealed that these people were all closely associated with Inoue Hideka.

As a result, news spread quickly that Inoue Hideka was hiding at the Advanced Equipment Research Institute.

Chao An gathered forces from all sides and ordered them to surround and kill Inoue Hidekazu.

Hearing the news, disciplinary committee members and some ordinary students with an overwhelming sense of justice also rushed over. The council did not stop them, but let the students do as they pleased, allowing them to form a gang to deal with Inoue Eika.

The 17th School District is located in the western suburbs of Academy City. It is a vast industrial area, mostly consisting of unmanned automated factories, and has an extremely sparse population.

The industrial area here is different from the small factories on ordinary streets that look like rented warehouses.

There are only towering industrial buildings without windows, arranged in an exceptionally neat manner, with no sense of life whatsoever.

Although the factory operates 24 hours a day, the soundproofing is so good that you can't hear any noise at all.

It was precisely because of the lack of a sense of life, the sparse population, and the excellent soundproofing of the factories here, where no noise could be heard, that Tang Jinyu chose to build his research institute underground here.

However, at this moment, the peace has been shattered.

The so-called sparse population and tranquility no longer exist.

All sorts of people flocked to this industrial zone that was usually overlooked.

In addition, the heavy thuds of the armor, whether large or small, echoed as it pounded the ground beneath its feet, moving slowly and steadily forward in sync with the guards' steps.

In the sky, the buzzing sound of the rotating propellers grew closer and closer, and the unmanned helicopter named 'Six Wings' gradually enveloped the research institute from afar.

Although it is night, the entire Academy City seems to be moving around the 17th School District.

------

The 10th School District, Juvenile Detention Center, in the basement.

With the key he had stolen from a certain manager, Inoue Hideka opened the door to the room where Kihara Ayaki's companion was being held.

There were more than a dozen people inside, both men and women, and they were not separated by gender.

They didn't look very well; they were pale and thin, with a haggard appearance.

When Inoue Hideka opened the door, everyone assumed he was from the reformatory and looked at him warily.

Inoue Hideka didn't want to waste any more time; time was of the essence, and he couldn't afford to waste any more.

He activated his mind control ability, directly bombarding everyone's minds with relevant information, including his current predicament and his relationship with Kihara Tsurugi.

After waiting a few seconds and seeing the people inside exchanging glances, seemingly trusting him and gradually lowering their guard, Inoue Hideka spoke slightly faster than usual:

"As you all know, my current situation is not optimistic. Your companion, Kihara Tsurugi, is now on my side. If you try to find her, the Council's fire will also reach you. So, what are your plans now? Go your separate ways and hide on your own, or go find Kihara Tsurugi?"

After saying that, Inoue Hideka stood at the door and looked at the people inside.

Several of them, presumably the leaders, exchanged glances, seemingly confirming everyone's opinions.

Ring ring ring~~

My phone suddenly rang.

Inoue Hideka had a bad feeling; she had a feeling that calling her at this time couldn't be a good thing.

"Hey?"

The caller ID showed Yun Chuanqin, and Inoue Hideka answered the phone with a puzzled look.

"Inoue, the location of the research institute has been exposed."

As expected, Yun Chuanqin's first words confirmed Inoue Eika's guess, and his face instantly darkened.

There are quite a few people in the research institute now.

Touma Kamijou, Index, Kazari Uiharu, Last Order, Masaga Fujiwara, the Arbitration Trial... and Serahi Kumokawa, who serves as the central brain of his side!

If the council sends in security personnel or Academy City's high-tech forces to surround and suppress them, then these people need to be protected!

Thinking of this, Inoue Hideka said somewhat anxiously:

"I'm going back right away!"

"No!"

As if she knew Inoue Eika would say that, Yun Chuanqin immediately denied it.

"Inoue, don't be impulsive. I'm here for you. Trust me, I can handle it! Just do as I say... just do as I say, understand?"

At this moment, Yun Chuanqin's voice was completely devoid of its previous playfulness and nonchalance, instead conveying a sense of seriousness and composure tinged with pressure.

Given Inoue Hideka's adult mindset and her ability to control her mind, even she couldn't help but feel the urge to carry out her orders at certain moments upon hearing her words.

It's practically like a hypnotic sound without any superpowers involved!

This is perhaps... the power that enabled Yun Chuanqin to reign supreme in the council and to become a significant figure within it.

Inoue Hideka, after pondering for a moment, put aside her hesitation and said to Kumokawa Sera:

"Okay! Senior, please tell me what I need to do next?"

"Were Kihara Ayaki's companions rescued?"

"Yes, I've found them and I'm planning to take them away."

"Alright, let them find somewhere to hide for now. Inoue, you and the seventh member, go and kill the remaining ten members of the General Council!!"

Even through the phone, Inoue Eika could sense the chill in Yun Chuanqin's tone as she finished speaking.

As expected, even Yun Chuanqin would find it somewhat challenging to cope with the current situation.

However, it seems that this brilliant strategist, this top-notch strategist, is getting serious!

Chapter 438 Some People in the Operation

Hearing what Yun Chuanqin said, Inoue Eika's lips unconsciously curled up.

Such a wise and resourceful person, once he gets serious, some people may be in trouble.

Ha ha……

With a gentle smile, Inoue Hideka asked Kumokawa Sera a crucial question:

"Killing the council members isn't a big problem. The council basically doesn't have any ability users or devices that can suppress me and the board-shaving expert. The problem is location? Each council member is located in a different place. Where should we go to find them?"

"Chao An's lair is the underground air-raid shelter in the Second School District. You should know about this, Inoue."

When the first conflict broke out with Shiogishi, Inoue Eika's intelligence specialist, Akiyama Yan, had already cooperated with Misaka Mikoto to track down Shiogishi's hideout.

It seemed that Yun Chuanqin only knew about this matter and said it directly.

Inoue Eika did not suspect anything. Yun Chuanqin worked in the council and had access to many things and information that ordinary people could not see. It was not surprising that she understood the process of her and Shiogishi competing against each other.

"kindness."

Inoue Eika gave a soft reply, saying nothing more, and waited for Yun Chuanqin to continue.

"Then you and the seventh one go deal with Chaoan first. He's the biggest threat and the culprit; he's the one who should be eliminated. I'll arrange for Misaka and that guardian spirit to find other board member positions as soon as possible. I'll contact you immediately once we find them! That's all..."

Beep, beep, beep...

After finishing speaking, Yun Chuanqin cut off the call immediately.

Inoue Hideka could imagine how busy and overwhelmed she must be right now.

After all, it wasn't just about their own side; other aspects also needed to be arranged by Yun Chuanqin, such as how to defend themselves and how to track down the enemy. All of these required Yun Chuanqin, the strategist, to personally give orders.

However, Inoue Hideka also knew that these were not things that an ordinary person with average intelligence should consider.

All he had to do was follow Yun Chuanqin's orders; everything else was up to her.

Inoue Hideka has 100% trust and 200% confidence in Kumokawa Sera!

The trust stemmed from her relationship with Touma Kamijou; Inoue Hideka believed that Kumokawa Sera wouldn't harm Touma Kamijou's friend, whom she liked.

Confidence comes from the original work.

In her past life, Yun Chuanqin was a legendary figure among those without abilities, praised by her friends. Whether it was intelligence or emotional intelligence, this senior was second to none!

Even when facing Misaki Shokuhou, a psychic, she could restrict her actions with just words. Inoue Hideka really didn't know why she had any reason not to trust such a person.

Without further thought, Inoue Hideka put away her phone, turned and walked out, quickly using her mental control ability on Kihara Ayaki's companion inside the room.

Verbal explanations take a lot of time; it's better to directly convey the information to the target using your abilities.

Inoue Eika told the people inside that it was not convenient to take them to find Kihara Tsurugi right now, and that they should find a place to hide for the time being.

If he wins this battle with the council, Jie Biao Danxi will take the initiative to go to them.

He also wanted them to follow behind him and try to break out as quickly as possible. If he left, it would be difficult for them to escape.

The leaders in the room exchanged quick glances and then followed Inoue Hideka's footsteps, running together towards the outside of the reformatory.

School District 17, underground.

Inside a room at the research institute.

Yun Chuanqin sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and her back leaning lazily against the back of the chair. She held her phone to her ear with one hand and casually rested the other hand on the top edge of the sofa.

Despite her seemingly languid demeanor, Yun Chuanqin's face displayed the exact opposite of seriousness and composure, with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.

Her overall demeanor became increasingly cold and aloof, as the murderous intent occasionally emanating from her eyes was revealed.

Beep, beep...

The phone was ringing and was answered after two rings.

Before the other person could speak, Yun Chuanqin asked directly:
