309. Circulars & Puritanism

Thunder!

This is the real thunder!

No, even a real thunderstorm is not so terrifying.

A huge pillar of thunder with a diameter of more than ten meters fell from the sky and swallowed Chiba in an instant.

If it weren't for Robin's retreat from a few dozen meters away from the beginning, she would have been struck by lightning at this time. Even though she had withdrawn far away, the electric snakes in the air still struck a few bunches in her direction.

Robin dodged quickly, but was not struck by lightning.

On the other hand, Mikoto Misaka is too close, so it is still inevitable to be affected by lightning, but fortunately, as an electric shock messenger, her control of electricity is not comparable to ordinary people, so even if there are many electric snakes pounced on her, but the moment they touched her, they still became extremely gentle, and after turning around her body, they shot towards Chiba again.

And this thunder pillar,I don't know how many people's eyes have been attracted.,The entire school city,Even Tokyo City, which is not far from the school city,I also saw this thunder pillar that reached the sky.。

The thunder lasted for more than ten seconds before dissipating, and after the thunder dissipated, a huge black spot with a diameter of more than ten meters was left on the ground, and the sand on the ground was melted, and the ground was shiny, as if it was covered with a layer of glass.

Mikoto Misaka gasped for air, her hands on her knees, she had already consumed all her strength at this time, and she had fought to completely deplete her power to launch such a powerful attack.

In her opinion, such an attack should be enough.

"Let's see what you're going to do this time......"

Mai Korn gasped and grinned.

"Well, what should I do? Cold salad, of course, or what else?"

A flirtatious voice sounded behind Mai Trin, and Mai Trin's pupils shrank suddenly, and she subconsciously looked back. What she saw, however, was a pair of rapidly widening red eyes. Then, immediately afterward, Nami fell into a deep slumber, and her consciousness fell completely silent.

The next day, a video appeared on the Internet.

In the video, a white-haired man is fighting with a brown-haired junior high student, who uses thunder and lightning as a means to constantly attack, while the white-haired man on the opposite side does not move and allows the other party to attack.

However, although it was the girl in the country who took the initiative to attack, it was the white-haired man who won in the end.

This video looks like a blockbuster movie, the picture is gorgeous, and it doesn't look like it should be in real life at all. However, all those who see this video know that this is true, there are indeed such strong people in reality, although the girl in it is only a middle school student, but if she is from that city, everything is not impossible.

And immediately afterwards, the man who appeared in the video also explained.

"Ahem, hello everyone, my name is Chiba, and I'm from a place you don't know, so I don't matter. I'm going to tell everyone who sees this video now that what you're seeing is real, and it was taken by my assistant. The girl who fought with me.,The third of only seven superpowers in the school city.,Misaka Mikoto, known as the electric shock messenger.。 Of course, we were just having a friendly exchange, and she fainted in the end, only because her body was overwhelmed by the overuse of her abilities.

But none of this matters, the important thing is that I'm here, challenging the world's strongest, including other superpowers in the school city, as well as colleagues in the wizarding world, please get ready to meet the challenge from me. If anyone can defeat me, then I will offer some ways to increase your power, but if you fail, I'm sorry, you will be my captives.

Okay, that's all, all the strong people who think they are not bad, please make yourself in the best condition as soon as possible, if you don't want to be a captive!"

End of video.

However, all those who saw the video had a year in their minds - the man in the video was not a neurotic?

And what he said, everyone knows the superpowers, magicians? Hehe, how can there be magicians in this world? Superpowers can be explained by science, but what about magicians? Occultism? Don't joke, okay? Now it's a modern society, science and technology are highly developed, magic or something, how can anyone believe it!

Believe it or not, the video was quickly retweeted and spread like a plague to all corners of the internet.

There's no way.,Although magicians or something.,Most people don't believe it.,But superpowers they believe.,And many people have sent their children to the school city.。 Now, a superpowered person has been defeated like this, of course, everyone is curious about who this man is, and they are also curious about who the superpower person on the other side is, with such curiosity, everyone is passively accepting the video, and then actively spreading the video.

In three days, except for a few very few areas that really do not have access to the Internet, more than 80% of the world's people have watched this video, accounting for about half of the world's total population.

This is also what Chiba has wanted to do from the beginning, since he can't find Nami and Xiaonan, then let himself become a celebrity and let his fame end in the world, then when the time comes, no matter where Nami and Xiaonan are, they can get news of him as soon as possible, and take the initiative to find him.

As for the video, it was Chiba who asked Robin to take it.

With the popularity of the video,Chiba has reason to believe,It won't be long before he can reunite with Nami and Xiaonan.,And before that, what he has to do is to continue to challenge.,His primary goal is to challenge all the superpowers in the school city once.。

……

English Puritanism is a branch of Cruciception located in England, the Anglican religion of England, and the "Puritanism" among the three major factions in Britain.

There are many internal factions.,The forces are complex.,Ally with the school city.。

The supreme leader is the Queen of England on the surface, but the actual leader is the Grand Bishop, Lola Stuart. St George's Cathedral is based in London. Its core was the Church of Necessary Evil of the "parish of Zero Saints" under the English Puritanism, and later incorporated the Amakusa Cross Sect of the Far Eastern Cross Sect and the Janis Army of the original Roman Orthodox Church.

In addition, the United Kingdom, a country with more developed magical forces, is jointly controlled by the royal faction, the knightly faction, and the Puritans, and Britain is not equal to Puritanism, which is only a part of the British political system, and the political situation in Britain is divided into three factions and four cultures.

The command system of the state is in the hands of three forces that check and balance each other.

They are the "royal faction" composed of the Empress of England and the parliament she controls, the "knightly faction" composed of the chief knight and his knights, and the "Puritan faction" composed of the supreme bishop and his followers.

Among them, the [royal faction] controls the [knight faction] with royal orders, the [knight faction] uses state political props to use the [puritan] faction, and the [puritan] uses church advice to manipulate the [royal faction].

The iron triangle formed by the three forces creates a sense of extreme beauty. As long as one of them insists on going its own way in policy, the other two will create powerful checks and obstacles to their policy implementation through various roundabouts. Therefore, Britain is also known as "the most complex cross culture in the world".

On this day, in St. George's Cathedral, Lola Stuart, the leader of the Puritans, was drinking tea.

She held a white porcelain cup in her hand, and the cup contained red black tea.

She was the head of the English Puritan Church, one of the three major denominations of the Old Church, and the Supreme Bishop of the Puritan parish of the Zero Holy Church of the Church of Necessary Evil, whose duty was to "command the English Puritanism in place of the busy king", the de facto leader of the "Puritans". The office is located at St. George's Cathedral in Lambeth, while the residence is in the nearby Lambers Palace.

Although she looks like a girl of about eighteen years old, she has been like this since twenty years ago. She has crystal white skin, clear blue eyes, and shiny golden hair. Her biggest feature is her long blond hair, which is 2.5 times as long as her body.

The vertical hair reaches ankle height and is folded up to the back of the head, then held in place with a huge silver hairpin, then folded down again to near the waist.

Unlike ordinary nuns, people like Laura, who often attend public occasions, must prepare countless styles of monastic clothes according to the season, time, place, ceremony, position, will, etc. Sometimes, in order to elevate the status of the guests, they deliberately wear low-status clothes to greet the guests, and sometimes in order to express their dissatisfaction, they deliberately wear clothes that are higher than the other party's status to attend the meeting.

Possess the strength to command a huge organization. She is a good speaker and does not easily reveal her true intentions. The benchmark of good and evil is unknown, and the good and evil are unscrupulous for the benefit of English Puritanism. There are so few grounds for judging whether she is good or evil, or rather, she does as much good as she does bad. On the scales of good and evil, a delicate balance has always been maintained. She is good at scheming, and has the ability to control people's feelings, rationality, interests, ethics and other "values" in the palm of her hand, and no one is more clever than her.

It was she who devised the rule that "Intix's memories must be erased every year", and also formulated security measures to prevent the betrayal of the "Forbidden Book Catalog", imposing a surgical "automatic secretary" on her, and configuring her remote-controlled spiritual suit and "collar". Created the Remote Control Psyche of Intix's "Auto Secretary" and held one of two Remote Control Avatars.

At the same time, he has the affinity to blend in naturally with his surroundings, and will not alienate himself from others because of his status as a suprefect. Anyone can quarrel, speak ill of each other, riot, and sometimes burst into tears.

It can be seen that she is a complete black-bellied woman.

But she also has a very cute side.,For example, she once asked for the guidance of Motoharu Tuyumon.,Can speak in a plausible old Japanese.,Even use this stupid way of speaking to negotiate with the representatives of the school city.,And it's been "a habitual language that is difficult to correct".,It's been rumored all over London.。

She's also interested in science.,And get a variety of machines from the school city side.。 The bathrooms in the vast space of Lambers Palace are filled with dozens of small bathroom equipment donated by the school city, the St. George's Cathedral will be equipped with screens and communication equipment provided by the school city association, and the state-of-the-art AI-equipped automatic washing machine provided by the school city will be equipped for the British Puritan girls' dormitory.

In short, she is a very contradictory person.

Today, she is sitting in the courtyard of St. George's Cathedral, basking in the sun and drinking afternoon tea. A man with red hair stood beside her, respectfully awaiting the next order.

Steele Magnus is a magician belonging to the Church of Necessary Evil, a special unit of the English Puritans. A genius mage who has completely parsed the existing 24 rune scripts and developed 6 rune scripts with new powers, and specializes in fire magic. He is only 14 years old, but he is more than 2 meters tall. It is characterized by shoulder-length hair dyed red and a barcode-like tattoo under the right eye. A heavy smoker who loves to smoke a lot and asserts that "the world without nicotine and tar is hell".

Steele's job is, to put it simply, to clean up the evil magicians that are endangering humanity. With an absolute calm and thorough personality, he will eliminate the enemy mercilessly, and he is a person who will carry out the task as long as it is to achieve the goal, no matter how ruthless. However, Steele basically doesn't attack anyone who has no connection to the wizarding world.

Matching his tall stature, Steele did not have the physical strength required for hand-to-hand combat. It's not because Steele doesn't exercise, but there are more fundamental reasons.

He used rune cards and coded spells, which required a considerable amount of magic. Magic is not created out of thin air, but is a power that can only emerge after performing various "magic tasks" on the inside of the body.

This isn't too difficult for a normal magician, but it's a different matter to regularly use a papal technique like Steele's "Witch King". Repetitive simple work produces fatigue, and the "work" of magical refinement also oppresses Steele's body. The body's vitality is depleted relatively quickly, that is, the outside of his body is moving at the same time as the inside of his body.

Steele specialized in runic scripts and integrated them into the culture of the Cross Religion, and obtained the papal technique of "Hunting the King of Witches". The price of this is to abandon the possibility of hand-to-hand combat, and to be called an extreme mage who cannot ignite a fire without rune cards.

But it cannot be denied that his strength is very strong, and it is terrifyingly strong.

"So, is that video real?"

The archbishop glanced at Steele, "Is it 100 percent sure?"

"Of course!"

Steele nodded.

"The god crack has been investigated.,The third super electromagnetic cannon is indeed missing.,At present, the school city has entered full alert.,But according to my speculation,,That man didn't leave the school city.,Maybe,Maybe he's going to do something bigger.。 ”

"Hmm...... Bigger things...... Hehe,That's interesting.,You go to the school city.,Protect the forbidden book catalog with the god split.,Don't interfere in other things.,I'd love to see if a completely unknown factor appears in the school city.,What kind of choice will that man make.。 ”

Laura chuckled, and although the smile was coquettish, Steele couldn't help but tremble.

"Yes, I understand!"

He said quickly, and then immediately left without looking back.

It was terrifying, it was a scorching summer afternoon, but there was a hint of coolness in the air, and Steele didn't dare to stay here, for fear that if he was not careful, he would become Laura's plaything.
