As soon as he came out, someone started shouting.

Zhi Xing looked over and found that it was a man he didn't recognize, so he stopped paying attention and turned to Chihaya and said:

"Well, that's all for today's divination. I'll come to see you again. I hope you won't make me waste any more time then."

After saying that, he stood up and stretched his body, then disappeared again from the sight of the man who noticed this side.

"[Miko-sama], who is that sama?"

Chihaya looked at the direction where the paper line disappeared. Seeing that it did not cause the others to disappear, she could not help but touch the phone in her pocket and smiled as she responded to the president in front of her:

"That person exists in a different time from us. Don't worry about him. Maybe everyone will know about it soon."

At this time, he had re-entered the witch's barrier and relied on calling the little bear again to come to the paper line in the witch's room.

He was riding the Witch's elevator to the maintenance platform and asked the Witch some tentative questions.

Then Zhixing confirmed that the witch's logical consciousness had not yet recovered to the normal level of communication, and she ignored the words on the card, as if it was not what the other party said.

Seeing this, Zhixing used the power of the app while getting as close to the witch as possible and entered Zhixing's hall again. After searching around, he still couldn't find the Cognitive Bear, so he returned to the witch's room.

"Indeed, I've just thought about it carefully. If we launch a large-scale app promotion campaign here, I probably won't be the one gaining the most recognition from others."

"But when I brought others into this other world, the advantage I relied on was the witch's barrier."

"Too many people will always cause problems, not to mention there's the Witch's Kiss causing trouble."

"So unless they stay in the other world for a short time, they will always see me using the witch's power, spreading the witch's kiss, or avoiding movement with the witch's barrier."

"Having already had the impression of the real-life anime series 'Madoka Magica,' their understanding of witches was obviously much more profound than mine, a stranger who only saw them once."

"Mona can become a car like the Cat Bus because of other people's perception of My Neighbor Totoro, so she is a genuine witch. It is normal for her to become a real witch because of other people's perception of her."

Zhixing recalled the scene when Little Bear told him the key words of the hall.

At that time, among the crowd of people who were drawn into this world, there happened to be someone who had read the story of Madoka Magica.

From other people's perspective, it is normal for a witch to possess the Seed of Sorrow.

"The witch's seed of sorrow, and the soul gem that was transformed from it by my act of drinking the soup, which removed the filth."

"Which one is the real you?"

Zhixing knew that the little bear was most likely in these two containers.

But if you enter the body of a witch, you will be surrounded by the witch's magic power.

Therefore, it is necessary to determine where the little bear should be before entering the witch's body. Only in this way can you ask the other party what information he knows.

"Alas, I should have prepared a way out for myself first. At the very least, I should have found a way to trigger a reset."

"But now, whether I'm looking for Ren Amamiya to get the entrance to the Velvet Room or trapping some important character in the barrier, I feel like I have no purpose."

Jixing said that he didn't want to have anything to do with the Phantom Thieves again, but in fact, Jixing still had other candidates. Whether it was Madarame Ikryusai or Niijima Makoto, they were all targets whose whereabouts Jixing could confirm.

Zhi Xing looked at the witch's mouth which was partially sewn with needle and thread, and realized that the current problem was not too urgent and could still be prepared.

Zhixing still did not choose to let the witch swallow him, but stood up, looked at his offline map, and decided to prepare a retreat for himself before asking about the little bear's situation.

"I feel like if Maya Niijima awakens her mask early, it'll feel like the magical girls' group is gathering."

"Suzui Shiho, Sakura Futaba, Okumura Haru, Niijima Makoto."

"Except for An Takamaki, I was the one who brought out the power of the Persona."

"A semi-finished product forcibly enhanced by the Witch's Kiss, a Persona transformed by the Temple, a semi-awakened person with talent but insufficient resistance, and Shinjima Makoto who can actually awaken a Persona directly."

"Sure enough, we still need to experiment to determine the conditions for the mask to awaken."

Zhixing looked at the witch who seemed to be listening to his own muttering, and pricked up his ears to make sure he didn't hear any reaction from the witch to his pursuit of power again.

Only then did Zhi Xing leave the witch's barrier in front of the witch and return to reality.

Looking at the large number of office workers still gathering on the streets for social events, and others shopping in Shinjuku Entertainment District.

Zhihang stretched his body, then looked at the passers-by and the open shops, and said in a low voice:

"The officials should have discovered that I sent a letter to Kamoshida. So before we go find Shinjima Makoto tomorrow, we need to cause a commotion and divert attention away from Shujin Academy."

This time, since he wasn't trying to test whether others could awaken their personalities, Zhixing didn't choose the Golden City Palace like last time. Instead, he quickly entered the location of the Impression Space and then raised his phone and shouted:

"The doomsday crisis will occur at the end of the year, and we're starting to select talent now. I hope you won't let me down."

"Remember my code name, I am the owner of Zero Hour Lost, Yuuji Sakai!"

After he finished speaking, with everyone looking at him because of what he had said, Zhixing pressed the confirmation button, leaving a circle of about 5 meters around the people.

Then, after a dozen seconds, he and everyone else returned to reality and began to run while pulling people into another world.

Chapter 276: Cognition is not limited to one person

"Hey, did you hear what happened yesterday?"

"You mean that Chuunibyou thing, right?"

"How can you call it chuunibyou? That guy really has power!"

"Is it true? Have you seen it?"

"I heard about it and went to the street to check it out! Guess what I saw?"

"What, what? Come on, tell me."

"At that time, several police cars surrounded the store, and then the guy walked out by himself and disappeared in front of everyone!"

"That guy claimed to be Yuuji Sakai, right? Is that the ability from that anime? I remember it was called the Sealing Technique."

"There should be some difference. I asked the people who were taken away by that guy, and they said that the sky suddenly turned blood red, and everyone else also became abnormal."

"That's amazing! I didn't expect you to have super powers~"

“It would be great if you could come to our school today.”

"Stop dreaming and think about where to go after school. Maybe you'll get lucky and run into him."

Two students from Shujin Academy were walking on their way to school, excitedly chatting about what happened yesterday.

Zhixing yawned and stretched, then rubbed his eyes and looked at his phone.

"Sunday, April 25 (Monday) 8:42"

"Sigh, I didn't expect that after working hard for a whole day, I didn't even encounter a successful mask. This is no longer something that can be explained by probability."

Thinking this, Zhixing stood up, pulled back the branch beside him, and then stretched his face to the place where the branch had just been.

The bright sunshine will shine on Zhixing's face that has just awakened. At the same time, the students coming and going also appear in Zhixing's sight.

After taking a few quick glances, Zhixing found that there were no so-called student union members standing at the school gate to check on the guards. He couldn't help but sigh, and retracted his head back into the witch's barrier. Then, he stretched out the branch again to fix the witch's barrier in its current position and prevent it from moving.

Then Zhixing looked at his backpack and began to sort out matters other than hygiene.

After everything was ready, Zhixing returned to the witch's room with his backpack, put his things away, and then swaggered out of the barrier.

At this time, the area around the paper shop had become a quiet and deserted place, which meant that the students in Shujin Academy were already in the first class of the morning.

Zhixing held a cell phone in each hand and looked towards the school lobby.

"So, do we want to make a quick decision, or do we need to be more selective?"

Zhixing remembered that he had parted with Chihaya the day before yesterday, so he started spreading the app that night, and before the police could react, he had brought most of the people who were entertaining and dining in the store into the impression space.

Afterwards, Zhixing carefully recalled his experiences during this period and felt that the witch had changed too much in this world, so he decided to temporarily leave this world and see how the witch was doing.

After all, from the fact that his demonization would appear in reality, to the fact that a seed of sorrow seemed to really appear in the witch's body, and even through Chihaya's divination, it could directly leave behind words that humans could understand, all of this far exceeded Zhixing's expectations for the result of the fusion of these two forces.

And this ominous development continued until the Paper Bank pulled enough people into the Impression Space and released them, and then another completely new change occurred.

Zhixing saw Kyubey's figure.

And if the figure seen on Saturday night was just an uncertain one, then yesterday, Sunday, when the paper shop did not know the address of the Niijima family because there was no class at Shujin Academy, Kyubey's figure was definitely seen when the mobile phone virus was rampant in Shibuya Square.

And it wasn't just Kyubey, even the torch was seen, which was the fake identity in "Shakugan no Shana" that he used deliberately to prevent other people from deepening their understanding of Madoka Magica. In Yuuji Sakai's worldview, it was the residue left after humans were eaten.

This residue appears to be the same as an ordinary person, but it is actually a human-shaped object that is losing its vitality at any time.

This made Zhixing understand that things in anime can also be realized under the common cognition of other people. It also forced Zhixing to stop his reckless behavior and eat a bowl of noodles to calm down.

Whether it is a character from novels, history, anime or even mythology.

As long as it is recognized by enough people, it will have enough power to form a personality mask. After all, Zhixing has been to his own hall several times, and not only has he not encountered the cognitive bear, he has never even seen the shadow Zhixing that should exist.

Zhixing originally thought that since the shadow of the hall did not exist and he could not follow Futaba's path, he should just transform into the image of the phantom thieves known to the world like the Phantom Thieves did, and thus obtain a personality mask.

Therefore, after realizing that there is no one in the Madoka Magica world who can replace him, he chooses the fake identity of his own world.

But there was no follow-up to the mask, instead things from the same worldview appeared one after another.

Zhixing was deeply aware that he had chosen the wrong path again, but he had no idea where he had gone wrong.

So after finishing his meal, Zhixing was surrounded by the police who arrived late. He entered the cognitive world, switched to the witch's barrier, and then exited the navigation. He disappeared from his original place and moved to another place, thus avoiding the protection vacuum period that occurred when entering the witch's barrier.

Unfortunately, Zhixing originally wanted to see what Goro Akechi was like now, and tried to see if escaping by switching spaces was feasible with this villain who obviously did not use an app to enter the other world.

After all, different halls do not affect each other and are not in the same area. Otherwise, the Phantom Thieves would not need to explore them one by one. They can directly use one hall as a coordinate to see the situation in other halls.

As long as you are not in the location of the temple itself, the areas outside the temple are superficially the same as the real world.

Therefore, Zhixing really wanted to know whether Akechi Goro could catch up if he used the coordinates to switch between different palace spaces when he had several coordinates.

But if you miss it, you miss it.

After escaping the encirclement, Zhixing turned off his mobile phone and switched to the previously unused No. 1 mobile phone which had no internet connection but had an app and returned to reality.

Then, he went to the Internet cafe and frantically downloaded anime videos to his computer, making full preparations for his past world and the world he might enter. For this purpose, he even formatted his computer, retaining only the information about Madoka Magica that he had accumulated before, and used the rest of the space to install anime.

So when the Shibuya incident caused by Kazuyuki was causing a stir, Kazuyuki was frantically adding to the settings for the next world he had chosen.

This situation continued until late at night. After Zhixing confirmed that there was nothing he needed, he passed through the witch's barrier and rushed to the location of Shujin Academy. Then he entered the witch's barrier. At the edge of the barrier, he hid himself like a bug in front of the school gate where no one would approach, waiting for the arrival of daytime.

But now there is only one problem facing the paper industry.

So what does Niijima really look like?

Zhixing just observed the JKs coming and going, but they were all wearing school uniforms, even Takamaki An was no exception.

In this case, the only way for Zhixing to identify Shinjima is probably the student union where the student council president might be.

However, the paper shop went into the school yesterday to detect the words on the doorplates one by one, and found the Student Union Room.

However, after taking a quick look at the surroundings, Zhixing discovered that this place was not used by only Shinjima Shin.

If nothing goes wrong, I will discuss school matters here with other student union members after school.

If he were to sneak into another world, he wouldn't be able to find his target, and if he were to sneak into reality, he would definitely not be able to keep up with the person. Since he couldn't pull Shinjima out to talk alone, there was no need to wait until after school to pull him out. What if the president wasn't there by then?

That's why Zhixing started to wait at the school gate, ready to start an indispensable part of campus life in the world of super powers that often appears in anime.

Catch all the students in the school in one fell swoop!

But it is different from the sensation that other super powers may cause.

By pulling others into another world like this, Paper Line can effectively isolate behaviors like screaming.

But the only question is whether those students will remain quiet when the next class comes.

Zhixing thought about it for a long time before going to bed, but couldn't come up with a solution. So even when he was about to take action, Zhixing was still not sure whether he should rush to recruit people regardless of the consequences, or appease the people in one class and then move on to the next class.

"Hey, who are you? You don't look like a teacher, do you?"

The paper shop that appeared at the school gate in reality was discovered by the school security because he thought for too long.

Zhi Xing looked in the direction of the sound and saw the security guard approaching and reporting the situation he encountered into his intercom.

Zhixing raised his eyebrows and immediately had an idea.

So he ignored the security guard and walked into the hall.

"Wait, outsiders are not allowed to enter casually. Show me your teaching ID!"

Zhi Xing didn't look back, but quickly ran to the nearest classroom. Then, ignoring the teacher who was lecturing and the gazes of a group of unfamiliar students, he raised his phone and declared:

"Remember my code name. I'm Yuuji Sakai, the owner of Zero Hour Lost. I'm here to look for someone, so I'm sorry to bother you."

After saying that, Zhixing pressed the confirm button amid the discussions of the students and surrounded by teachers and security guards.

In an instant, red and black ripples spread out, encompassing the entire classroom.

When the ripples dissipated and everyone was puzzled, the students in the row by the window were the first to notice something unusual:
