Chapter 230: The Mindlifter
Octavir is indeed very good at acting, and easily pretended to be a little interested in the change of festivity, so that Bigal, who was not wary of girls, took the initiative to say it all. However, Nangong Rong thinks that this has nothing to do with the acting skills that the eldest princess has trained from the nobles, it is purely that Bigar seems to want to find someone other than Trist to talk to, which is why things will go so smoothly.
The somewhat unscrupulous Double Ponytail was actually a mischievous lady in the past, and her father, Palland, started a sizable conglomerate as a machine builder and made countless money, and as a result, Dressett lived a carefree life as a kryptonite player every day.
With the uninvited arrival of those green-skinned little gnomes, Palland immediately shifted the focus of his business to military mechanical weapons, which of course achieved great success, and several weapons developed by his group company were unanimously praised by users. So in this case, when Paland's company once again provided the military with a newly developed weapon to prepare for testing, the big boss was interviewed by the military high-brass.
There's nothing to say about the appointment itself, it's just getting to know each other, getting to know each other, contacting feelings, and then strengthening the cooperation between the two parties, etc., which is a boring but necessary kind of entertainment. They chose to meet at the testing ground, and after a nutritious conversation, they focused on the upcoming test, and Trace, of course, would not follow, but it happened to be the girl's birthday, so Palland used her phone to broadcast the test live.
The weapons provided to the military by Palland were robots that could be controlled wirelessly over long distances, and the developers tried to design them to have the same functions as mobile suits in the anime, but eventually abandoned the tall ones in favor of a smaller and more practical body size about the size of an armored vehicle. At this time, it has been confirmed that there is no one to manipulate the biological weapons of the gnomes, so in order to fight against them and protect the lives of soldiers, this thing was developed.
The problem is that I don't know if it's Paland's bad taste, but he actually chose to name it after his daughter, and even launched it as her birthday present on the same day. Fortunately, Trist didn't care much about these things, and she also knew that her father, who loved her very much, had been really busy lately and could only celebrate her birthday in this seemingly unreliable way, so she approved of the other party's approach.
As a result, Triste and Bigal, who was in charge of her daily life as a deacon at the time, watched everything that happened next on a computer screen.
The test was successful, as the robot did all the things that were set to do under the control of the staff, but the test failed again because the armed robot did not live up to the expectations that it would be able to compete with enemy biological weapons.
The test site far from the front line was attacked by airdrops from the gnomes, and the other side had its own intelligence and reconnaissance system even if it was not fighting at home, and this place that had tested several new weapons had long been targeted by them. In today's test, the enemy deliberately prepared for sabotage, and the human side was completely defenseless against it.
Trister watched her father be killed by those ugly monsters, and the girl's personality changed dramatically, and after forcing all the guys who thought the little girl was a bully and planned to do something to the company and the inheritance from the rooftop, she decided to sell the company and put all her money in a project.
It was also the one that the girl was busy with now, but Bigar didn't say what it was, and the conversation was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Another customer attracted by the shiny signboard lights outside? The young man got up and walked towards the door, while Nangong Rong also looked over, and then decisively changed to an embarrassed expression on his face.
Since he couldn't let the whole team have no combat effectiveness, the boy put his cheap sister in the suburbs and waited, and if he was really in danger, he contacted her in time to let her in power armor rush over to save the scene, of course, there was nothing wrong with this. However, the situation in the city was more complicated than Nangong Rong imagined, and the dwarf's biological weapons were not touched, but because of Octavir's appearance, they were entangled by some ill-intentioned humans.
That's right, it was the guys who were pointing at the eldest princess before, and I don't know what method they used, anyway, they finally found the girl.
"Here!" the man of Bigal's age, who was carrying a metal pipe that God knows where it had been dismantled as a weapon, raised his hand and pointed to the equally speechless Octavir, turning back to his companions and shouting, "The boss's telekinesis is indeed omnipotent, she can find it even if she runs as fast and far away." ”
An older guy who had dyed all his bird's nest heads the color of withered straw walked into the store unhurriedly under the stars and moons of several younger brothers, and looked at the shape of the tail almost reaching the sky, and thought that some big guy was inspecting. It could be heard from the minions' shouting that this guy seemed to have some kind of special ability, but that wasn't a reason for him to be so obsessed with his own abilities or covet Octavir's beauty that he ignored the rest of his surroundings.
Because Nangong Rong couldn't see the slightest panic in Bigal's eyes, some were just calm, indifferent and a little helpless.
"Welcome. What do you need?"
Bigal, who greeted him with a smile, probably did this on purpose, and he happened to stand between the withered straw and the eldest princess to block the former's view, so that the other party could only see himself.
Dry straw obviously had nothing in his head at the moment except Octavir, and he didn't think about why there was still a store that was open for business in this situation, and this store had not been smashed and looted by the mob no matter how he looked at it, he just felt extremely annoyed and disgusted by the man who suddenly appeared in front of him, and dared to block his view of admiring the beautiful woman?
So this guy immediately raised his hand and pressed it on Bigar's shoulder, intending to push the latter to the side hard, and by the way, let him sober up and figure out the situation in front of him, and don't come over to disturb him again.
Heroes? Stand up in case of trouble? Let's weigh how many pounds and taels you have!
"Fuck off, it's not you I'm looking for. ”
However, the withered straw failed to push Bigar, and it stands to reason that the former did not give any warning when he exerted his strength, and the latter would definitely suffer if he was caught off guard, but the fact was that Bigar stood firmly in place, as if the withered straw was not pushing a man, but a mountain.
This situation immediately alerted the dry straw, but the minion in charge of [opening the way] in front of him didn't think about it that much, but Bigal deliberately didn't give face to his boss, and raised the metal pipe and beckoned him fiercely to the back of the head.
Unfortunately, this guy's act of showing his loyalty brought a lot of pain, and Bigal didn't even look back, and directly elbowed the other man in the stomach, and then ...... There is no then.
At least in Nangong Rong's opinion, Bigal's elbow blow knocked the whole minion out more than three meters away, and he fell to the ground with a snap, rolled his eyes and foamed at the white foam to dress up the dried salted fish, what else could there be [then]?
"If you're not going to come in and surf the internet or have a drink and take a nap, but want to get my guests in trouble, please go out now. Bigar maintained a polite smile and a friendly tone and said lines that did not sound polite and friendly at all, "Although it is the most correct choice to call the police under normal circumstances, it is obviously impossible now, so I am naturally obliged as the store manager to ensure the stability and normal operation of the store." So, I'll personally invite you out if necessary, understand?"
The minions who followed the withered straw were all bullies and fearful of the hard, and when they saw that Bigal was obviously not easy to provoke, they all cowered and hesitated. However, Bigal's warning had no effect on the dry straw, who had awakened his telekinesis not long after the Alpha Monster arrived outside the city, and he was now feeling invincible in the world with his new powers, so how could he care about the warning of a person who had only practiced martial arts?
The so-called telekinesis is a phenomenon that has appeared in humans before the invasion of green-skinned gnomes, a bit like superpowers in various science fiction works, people who awaken this ability can use mental power to do many incredible things, such as telekinesis levitation or something, and even create a shield to block bullets if the power is greater. All the physical rules seem to be invalid in front of telekinesis, but fortunately, there are only two or three awakened people in the world, and the news is tightly sealed, and the outside world does not know.
But with the appearance of the green-skinned gnomes, more and more people awakened their telekinesis, and in the end, they couldn't hide it anymore and made it public, and at the same time began to recruit psychic people to join the army, intending to use them against the enemy's biological weapons.
The idea is good, but the truth is not satisfactory, and many of the large-scale awakened telekinesis do not have the strength to participate in the battle. Human beings evolve superpowers at a critical juncture and finally defeat the invaders, just watch it in the movie, don't expect too much in reality.
At the same time, some telekinesis who are afraid or unwilling to go to the battlefield have chosen to hide their abilities, and they are usually nothing, but now they are simply the biggest hidden danger in this situation of total collapse, and the chaos in Middleburg City is also related to the group of telekinesis who took the opportunity to make trouble, not to mention the temporary awakening of people like withered straw.
Studies have shown that the closer humans get to the gnomes, the more likely it is that their biological weapons will awaken their mental power, and since Alpha is now outside the city, it is not surprising that there will be people like Withered Straw. They destroyed the city's security system and routed the people involved, and then turned the entire city into the same scene that Nangong Rong and Octavir had seen when they entered the city.
As one of the participants, Dry Straw obviously didn't mind adding some more to the cake, took a few steps back and distanced himself from Bigar and raised his hand very indifferently.
"I'm not afraid to flash my tongue when I say big things, and I put on a look of being determined without even figuring out the strength of my opponent, and there must be a limit to arrogance!"
Nangong Rong, who was paying close attention to the movements of the two sides, suddenly widened his eyes, hoping to see clearly how the ability that was probably unique to humans in this plane was activated, and the withered straw did not disappoint the young man, and a fluctuation visible to the naked eye suddenly appeared in the air, hitting Bigal's chest directly from his palm.
It's a bit similar to the eldest princess's wind magic, but the Dry Straw's attack is purely physical, and he's using the vibrations caused by the air to kill his opponent. If you consider that the vibration can already be seen with your eyes, the power should be stronger than the eldest princess's wind blade.
But that's all, before the vibration wave from the withered straw touched Bigar, a fluctuation near the latter's body was also visible to the naked eye, like armor to protect his body, and then canceled out the other party's fluctuations.
It's so bland that it's like yawning.
"I don't care how you want to use your telekinesis, but I can't treat it as if I don't see it if you try to hurt others. Bigal easily resisted the opponent's attack without making any moves, causing Nangong Rong's hanging heart to quickly fall back into his stomach, but the reaction of the withered straw facing him was exactly the opposite of the young man, "Is your ability [vibration], you must have done an experiment to shake something into powder, right?
Before he could finish speaking, the ground at Bigal's feet suddenly burst into countless spiderweb-like cracks, far more violent than the vibration of the dry straw, and even formed an air current similar to the shock wave of the explosion, sweeping towards the other party.
"No, please wait......"
Halfway through the dry straw's words, he was silent, and he and a few minions around him kept a desperate look full of horror on their faces, and froze in place, like a realistic wax figure, not to mention moving their fingers, not even breathing.
Bigar shook his head lightly and sighed unhurriedly: "You have several kinds of blood belonging to different people on your hands, so it is not that you saw them accidentally injured during the flight and kindly stepped forward to help bandage them, so you were contaminated." When you stained the blood of these people, they should have begged you for mercy in the same way, and you listened?"
Before the words fell, these [wax figures] suddenly collapsed on the ground and completely lost their breath.
