The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 361: Determination of ability level

At sunrise, Uluft, carrying a huge cross, strolls through the streets.

Because the image is too exaggerated, it is not so suspicious.

He also seems to have gotten used to this kind of dress and behavior, walking on the street like no one else.

After a seemingly careless early morning walk, Uluft came to a street that had been reduced to ruins.

The street is in such a mess that at first glance, it looks like a volcano has erupted. The ground is covered with strange lines as if the magma had solidified.

Academy City's security force has pulled up a cordon to restrict pedestrians from approaching.

It was declared to be an experimental accident, but according to various rumors circulating on the Internet, a battle between superpowers should have erupted here last night.

"Although there were no casualties..." Uluft was like an ordinary passerby, stopping to watch out of curiosity, "but that's just because there happened to be no one at night."

He murmured to himself in a low voice: "Unexpectedly, this seemingly peaceful city is by no means so peaceful on the surface."

"Unjust fights..."

Before the guards noticed, Uluft turned and walked away.

"Punishment must be imposed!"

The first ray of sunlight in the morning pours into the house through the cracks in the curtains.

Lily opened her eyes suddenly, and took a picture of the alarm clock next to the bed when it rang.

Her own biological clock is so precise that she doesn't need an additional alarm clock at all.

But because she was seriously injured in the battle last night, just in case, Lily specially set the alarm clock.

Lily was only wearing the simplest underwear, but her arms and waist were covered with bandages. At first glance, it looks like a mummy lying upright on the bed.

There was a little blood on the bandage, but it had dried up long ago.

Above her body, a portable therapeutic device was still working conscientiously, scanning her body back and forth like a scanner.

Thanks to this machine and the special bandage, Lily's injuries have healed.

These are all the gear Lily brought from Wizel School for Gifted Teens.

Lily got up briskly and got out of bed, did some simple activities, and after confirming that her physical condition had recovered, she began to remove the bandages.

Then get dressed, wash and go out.

There was a big fuss last night. Although it ended in an ugly defeat, from another perspective, it also showed its strength to the city with its actual performance.

In this way, today's ability level test should pass smoothly.

"Although generally speaking, it hasn't deviated from the plan..." Lily sighed softly, "But it's still really not reconciled."

This is the result of the first battle...

Shaking her head, Lily shook off the boredom in her heart, and walked out of the room with a perfect posture.

The female security guards I saw last night were all gone.

Maybe after the official start of school, the special protection for Yuan Shanyao has also come to an end?

The number of people in the classroom gradually increased, but there was no sign of Shiranui Hitomi, the monitor.

Repeated calls and emails have not responded.

Ling Xingye couldn't sit still.

When Yuan Shanyao also arrived in the classroom, Ling Xingye immediately asked her because she was very close to Shiranui Hitomi's room.

"Squad leader?" Yuan Shanyao was stunned for a moment, "I didn't see it."

Saying that, Yuan Shanyao closed his eyes again, as if trying to remember something.

"The monitor seems to have asked for leave, and he won't come back to class today." This is the future she sees.

Ling Xingye could only nod to thank her. Hitomi Shiranui did send an email yesterday, mentioning the matter of asking for leave.

But Ling Xingye felt something was wrong. Hitomi Shiranui had asked for leave before, to cooperate with experimental research, or to participate in seminars and other things. But she never disconnected from Ling Xingye.

Reminiscent of this extraordinarily "full" summer vacation, coupled with the recent troubles that have increased again, Ling Xingye has to think about the bad side.

"Okay, everyone is here." Teacher Sachiko walked into the classroom, "By the way, Shiranui asked for leave today, so I can't come. Let's start the class meeting directly."

Hearing what teacher Sachiko Sakura said, Ling Xingye suddenly felt relieved.

—Since they have already asked the teacher for leave, it means that it is indeed correct to assist in the work of the experiment.

In terms of caring for students, Teacher Sachiko is trustworthy.

"The students who live in the school should have heard the news, but the teacher will say it again," Teacher Xingzi looked directly at Ling Xingye, "Today, the ability level test at the beginning of each semester will be carried out. I hope everyone will be prepared and perform well!"

Ling Xingye was the only person staying outside, so he was the only one who just got the news. But for things like ability level, it doesn't matter if you know it a few hours later.

"Because the monitor is absent at this time, so it's troublesome..." Teacher Sachiko showed a puzzled expression.

Because this kind of ability level measurement conducted uniformly by the entire Academy City is only twice a semester—at the beginning of the semester and at the end of the semester.

Normally, only the results of these two tests can be entered into the "Bookstore~lightnovelpub.net~ This will also directly affect the student's "scholarship" grade and the corresponding evaluation of the school.

As for other measurements, although the accuracy can be guaranteed, they cannot be officially certified, so they are not so important.

Unless there is a new level 5 superpower, the "library" can make an exception and update the data independently.

In other words, if you miss this test, you can only wait until the end of the semester.

However, Hitomi Shiranui is already a level 4 powerful user, and the possibility of further advancement is very slim. So it doesn't matter if you miss a measurement.

Rather, it is a rare case that the ability level is indeed improved.

What Mr. Sachiko was really worried about was the absence of the monitor, the organizer.

Because the ability level is determined by the class as a unit, basically the class leader leads everyone and maintains order.

"Choose an acting monitor." Sachiko-sensei decided.

Because the third class did not set up the position of "deputy squad leader", so they had to choose another one.

Teacher Xingzi cast her eyes on Ling Xingye, and then sighed a little.

Then he looked at Yuan Shanyao next to him, who shook his head like a frightened little beast.

After scanning around, Sachiko-sensei finally made a decision.

"Isseqianhui, it's up to you!" She pointed to a girl sitting in the front row.

Ling Xingye is not very familiar with her, but she also knows that this is a very popular girl, whether in or out of the class.

"Yakushiji Miyu-san to assist." Sachiko-sensei appointed another candidate.

"Okay, let's move now!"

The students echoed and got up one after another and rushed out of the classroom. Ling Xingye was among them, moving along with the crowd.
