Forty-three, approaching the myth of science

No one knows what an A-class exorcist means better than Guataro, who always likes to be prepared in advance and has engraved all the information collected by section leader Kaneharutani into his brain's hard drive before he officially joins the Fourth Special Operations Class.

If the B-level exorcist represents the top strength in the general sense of the exorcism world, then the A-level exorcist symbolizes the strongest level known among the exorcists today, with A-level spiritual power, both in quality and quantity, so strong that there are no friends.

Although in the world of exorcists, spiritual power does not fully represent strength, spiritual power is indeed the gold standard of strength.

A-level spiritual power, that is, it means that theoretically it is possible to reach the normal A-level or above combat effectiveness, which is enough to shake the A-level evil spirit head-on simply with its own strength.

At a time when even Type B evil spirits need to be dispatched by the entire Exorcism Organization, such a strength is almost a strategic-level deterrent.

If this alone is not clear enough, let's list a few of the world's famous A-level combat power exorcists.

The current Vatican Pope St. Homidas and his twelve subordinate cardinals, the Seven Heavenly Vehicles of India, and the head of the various avenues of Chinese orthodoxy - according to the special annotation of the section manager's information, the Maoshan Taoist sect leader who has a zombie 'drought ray' comparable to an S-class evil spirit, and the young Taoist priest who seems to have a strong background in Kyoto who opened a Chinese restaurant and mastered the 'air fire' in the 'Samadhi True Fire' that can only save the gods in Chinese mythology...... If you want to talk about the popularity in the local exorcism world, you have to count the 28th generation of the Tsuchinomiya family, the head of the Tsuchinomiya family, who has the strongest spirit beast 'Bai Rui', and the admonition of the 'Treasure Sword Lion King' at the peak of his strength.

――Now, among these powerhouses at the top of the pyramid of the Demon Exorcism Realm, there is another novice exorcist named Yohei Haruhara.

According to the section manager's inference, in addition to Tsuchinomiya Kagura, who will definitely inherit 'Hakurui' in the future, Guataro himself and Isayama Huangquan from the countermeasure room are the most promising candidates to become an A-level exorcist...... But now it's up to Haruhara.

But because Haruhara's friend is already his own, this feeling is not bad.

Coupled with the knowledge of the incomparably powerful abilities that he has awakened today, it will definitely surprise most people except for the omniscient section chief like a youkai, maybe ...... It won't be too long before we catch up with this guy from Haruhara.

――Thinking of this, Guataro also smiled confidently.

"A-grade......"

Look at the eyes of Guataro Huangquan...... It should be very powerful.

The corners of Haruhara's mouth twitched, looking at the extra '☆' after his name and the attack power of the '12+15' value in the attribute that was still pitiful-

Wait, something seems wrong.

Initial attack plus 10 attack when the hero command is turned on later.

10 plus 1 equals ...... ⑨! No, 11!

But now it's 12.

Why is the base attack increased a bit?

Is it because I have more forbidden fights and my muscles have become stronger?

No, no, no, even if the muscles become stronger, it is impossible to have twice the combat power of a normal person!

Because it's too complicated......

Finally, Haruhara's thoughts stopped.

Guataro proposed two mentions based on the 'Yamahiko'.

The first is to use the influence of strong light and other influences to make it impossible for 'Yamahiko' to observe the actions of the exorcists for a short period of time, interrupt its 'simulation' process and render it infunctional for a short time, and during this time, it will output all the clones created by 'Yamahiko' in seconds.

The second mention yì is even more simple and rude, Haruhara and the magical girl Asami, two B-level and above combat power, are dispatched together, directly and violently crushing the past, and the others are out of the battle range to defend. Anyway, the limit simulated by 'Yamahiko' is only B-class, and in the face of the combined fantasy-level firepower of the two A-grades, what 'Yamahiko' can do is actually very limited and very powerless.

The final decision is the first plus the second.

Haruhara, the magical girl Asami, rushed forward head-on to crush them, while the others retreated to the defensive line, and at the right time, Huangquan blinded all the clones of "Yamahiko" with the strong light of the low-altitude 'roaring wave', and then Haruhara and Asami took this opportunity to kill all the clones in seconds.

Simple and crude, there are no major variables and loopholes.

Except for the fact that it seems to overestimate the current combat effectiveness of a certain idiot who once returned to the pre-liberation period, it can be called perfect.

And Chunyuan, who was driven to the shelves, can only bet his hope on the A-level skill card being drawn.

'Ding---

After the skill is drawn, the skill [Static Field (A)] is obtained.

【Electrostatic Field (A)】

Passively deals lightning damage to a nearby enemy unit. When active, it deals damage and silences nearby enemies, but the passive effect is removed after the active effect is cast until the spell cooldown.

Effect: Every 2.5 seconds, an arc of electricity is released, dealing (100+0.2x Attack) magic damage to a random unit within a 500 radius.

Active: Deals (250+1x Attack) magic damage to all enemy units within a 550 radius and silences nearby enemy units for 0.5 seconds. Removed passive magic attacks until the spell cooldown expires. The cast time is 30 seconds.

Buffer: After detaching an A-rank skill, it cannot be re-equipped for 60 seconds.

'How...... Always...... Leak...... Electric ......'

Not only does the group provide attack skills, but it also has both active and passive effects!

30 seconds between cast spells! It can be used three times in one minute!

And you can put it back on again in a minute after removing it!

…… Well, this doesn't seem to be very useful.

After all, there are only two skills in Chunyuan that can be put into the skill bar......

It seems that if you count this skill alone, you seem to be really getting stronger!

Relieved, Haruhara immediately equipped the skill card of [Electrostatic Field (A)], and the moment the card was embedded in the skill bar, there was a 'buzzing' sound around Haruhara's body that seemed to be powered on.

-- The most exaggerated thing is that from time to time, a dazzling blue and white electric current the thickness of a finger flashed around Haruhara's body.

More than two seconds later, an incomparably violent arc of lightning with a terrifying momentum like heavenly might instantly pierced through the defense line formed by the demon exorcists who were still helplessly fighting with 'themselves', and devastatedly pierced the clone that was fighting against Isayama, completely smashing it into ashes.

Then, a low rumbling thunder swept over with a very short jet lag.

"No, I wasn't absorbed by Yamahiko... It's not a thunder attack guided by a spell simulation... This is... Could this be... Real Thunderbolt ?!! ”

Huang Quan's eyes widened, and he looked at Haruhara's extremely shocked state, "The self-proclaimed Forbidden Spell Dao Ji Ye Family, who has been pursuing the ultimate dream for generations, has been relentlessly pursuing the true Thunder Method... Actually... Got in the hands of a fool like you! ”

“… The real Rayfa... Clams clams, clams, don't be kidding, if you say that, Nikolai, who is known in the history of science as being better at playing with electricity than God. Isn't Tesla an S-class exorcist? ”

Haruhara, who didn't know how to explain it, laughed wryly and joked with his partner.

"To be precise, it's S-level or higher. The specific level is far beyond the limits of the existing system, so it is completely impossible to judge it on the basis of the existing or even the modern recorded system. ”

Guataro, who seemed to be almost healed at an extremely fast recovery speed, was leaning on the 'Ranche Red Lotus', and the 'E-Hunter' in the form of a short spear had a stern expression, "The section chief's information can't be wrong. Tesla is recognized as the 'closest exorcist to God' by the Western exorcism community, and in order not to reveal his true identity, he mobilized the power of most of the world's governments to control information, so that such a great scientist has never been able to get a reputation commensurate with his contributions in all aspects. On June 30, 1908, in order to eliminate the Orthodox Patriarch Alexei III, who had degenerated into an S-class evil spirit, the legendary exorcist single-handedly created the largest and completely impossible to replicate god-level thunder law in history, which is the 'Tunguska explosion' recorded in human history in the ordinary sense. Across half the world, use a terrifying spell equivalent to 500 atomic bombs or dozens of ** simultaneous explosion power to completely destroy an S-class evil spirit with a power enough to subvert a country, along with 2,150 square kilometers of forest. This is the most powerful spell in the history of exorcism in the West, and one of the most glorious exorcist deeds of all time. Of course, alongside it, and what I personally think is even more legendary, are the 'Apocalypse Bang' that took place in China on May 30, 1626 and... Not... Haruhara, uh... You guys... Don't you want to know more? ”

Guataro, who accidentally entered chatter mode again, saw Haruhara's somewhat blue face and Huangquan and Asami who opened their mouths cutely, and awkwardly stopped the habitual commentary that had already called up the ominous information from his brain.

"No, please don't ruin my worldview anymore." X3

Looking at the violently shaken appearance of the three of them, Jinguji Calamus also showed a faint smile.

Even this kind of news, which can be regarded as a secret in the exorcism world, actually let Guataro know without reservation, it seems that that guy really values this young man who has a brain as good as him and is also a promising young man......

By the way, during the time of Guataro's explanation, all the exorcists had successfully retreated to the side of the runes rolled out by the head of the room in a wheelchair, and the 'clones' who were temporarily unable to break through the rune defenses were also solved by Haruhara's 'leakage'.

Asami silently untied the strap on her chest, and after wielding it gracefully, it turned into a huge rifle; Huang Quan silently stroked the mane of the 'Red Lotus', and Chun Yuan held a blue and white thunderbolt that danced with the thickness of his fingers, and from time to time a dazzling arc of electricity swept through the guitar that blasted a 'clone' into ashes with a rumbling thunder......

The three boys and girls who were shocked by Guataro's energetic explosion and shattered their views now have only one thought-

In short, in a nutshell...... Let's kill a 'Yamahiko' first......
