The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 403: maiden on the throne

Ling Xingye hurried all the way, and sure enough, he didn't encounter any decent obstacles—he didn't even see half a person.

"Aside from those clones, Yanshi Crow didn't arrange other defensive measures?" Ling Xingye muttered, but he didn't stop to investigate the reason.

Towards the location of the "tracking cube", he ran all the way.

The underground building of the castle has been specially designed, winding like a labyrinth, there is no direct route to the destination at all.

So Ling Xingye had no choice but to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and kept switching routes, looking for a way to the deepest part of the ground.

Rao was at Ling Xingye's speed, and this detour was delayed by nearly ten minutes.

As the distance between Shiranui Tong and Shiranui got closer, Ling Xingye became more and more impatient.

He couldn't imagine that he let Hitomi Shiranui be taken away, and it took him so long to rescue her!

Ling Xingye was a little afraid to continue walking, worried that what he saw immediately would be an irreversible situation.

"Damn it! If something happens to Tong, I..." Ling Xingye cursed, but suddenly stopped, not knowing what to say next.

—If Shiranuotong really encountered an accident, what could he do?

I'm afraid it doesn't make sense no matter what you do!

Shaking his head vigorously, as if trying to get these ominous thoughts out of his mind, Ling Xingye forced himself to calm down, strengthened his will, and moved on.

Finally, after a "long" journey, Ling Xingye found the deepest room.

The sprite stepped forward and kicked the door open, Ling Xingye rushed in after him.

This is a fairly spacious space, about the same size as the debugging laboratory of the "Second Flower" above, but it is empty, with almost no decorations.

Only by the corner, there is an immersive sleeping cabin. On the left hand side is a huge screen occupying the front wall, which is showing surveillance images from every corner of the amusement park. Among them is Ling Xingye's appearance at this time.

It seems that the crow has already expected his arrival.

Yanshi Crow—a person covered in a black robe and wearing an iron mask with a bird's beak on his head stood in the middle of the room, looking at Ling Xingye.

But Ling Xingye ignored it, and looked directly past the crow to the end of the room.

Hitomi Shiranui is there!

The girl closed her eyes tightly and sat on a tall throne full of technological style. She was still wearing a longer school uniform, but she wore a "crown" on her head - several cables were pulled down from the "crown", and the other end was connected to the throne behind her.

Ling Xingye clearly remembered that he had seen a throne of the same style at Yanshijia's during the summer vacation.

Although it seems that I don't know Huotong has suffered any harm, Ling Xingye doesn't believe that the crow is really so kind.

In the current situation, it is obvious that it is eyeing Hitomi Shiranui's ability!

It is related to the brain, so if it is not done properly, it will cause serious injury, even life-threatening!

"What did you do to her!" Ling Xingye shouted angrily and walked forward.

But the crow seemed not to see him, and said to himself: "Tsk, the success fell short, I really missed a step, and I lost the whole game! I didn't expect that the biggest variable, Fang Tongxing, would appear on this stage..."

It didn't attack Ling Xingye, nor did it run away. Instead, it just stood there as if waiting to die and watched Ling Xingye approach, while still analyzing the reasons for its failure as if it was self-justifying.

Of course Ling Xingye ignored what it said, and went straight to Shiranui Tong.

The sprite popped out the wrist knife and rushed towards the crow.

At this moment, Ling Xingye suddenly heard another movement from the entrance behind him.

Since he didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend who appeared at this time, Ling Xingye stopped his movements and looked back.

The first thing that poured in was a canopy of petals.

Seeing this scene, Ling Xingye immediately knew the identity of the visitor.

Sure enough, it was a flower that entered the room—and Ling Xingye recognized it, it was Hua Twenty-one.

Immediately following them came Team Hua, who had been trapped underground just now, and two "Thousand Petal Lotus" puppets—the latter were also escorting the half-human, half-puppet Hua Twenty-One.

"It's so lively here!" In the end, Accelerator followed him in.

Suddenly a large group of people poured in, making the tense atmosphere awkward. Although wearing a mask, you can't see the face of the crow clearly, but you can imagine that the expression under the mask of the bird's beak must be very exciting.

Ling Xingye turned his head and continued to walk forward.

The crow seemed to want to do something, and just as it raised its arm, it saw its entire right arm snap off at the shoulder.

With a bang, the severed arm fell to the ground. Immediately afterwards, the crow's whole body was torn apart, as if it had been dismembered in an instant!

Ling Xingye didn't even look at it, and walked straight to Shiranui Tong.

"Sure enough, I knew that this cunning guy couldn't just wait to die here." Hua Eryi said looking at the wreckage on the ground.

The one killed by Ling Xingye with the "flying blade" was just a substitute puppet of Crow.

Although the Yanshi Crow itself is an automatic puppet, this body is obviously not its main body. The evidence is that there is no "suspected liquid" flowing out of its wreckage.

"...This round...you guys won...but..." The crow's remnant body was like a broken gramophone, uttering words intermittently.

The sprite went up and crushed its head with one foot.

Rescued Hitomi Shiranui from the "Throne", Ling Xingye carried her and ran outside.

Seeing the gloomy expression on his face, the people blocking the door couldn't help but give way.

Even Accelerator tactfully moved out of the way.

"Wait a minute!" Hua Eryi chased up and asked, "I don't know how Huotong is doing now?"

"She's fine, she just fell asleep." Ling Xingye replied.

"But she..."

This comatose appearance can't be described as falling asleep.

Seeing Ling Xingye's eyes, Hua Eryi couldn't finish speaking.

It doesn't matter whether it's really unconscious, or just fell asleep as Ling Xingye expected. In short, the most important thing right now is to get medical treatment.

Ling Xingye, who had walked through it once, was already familiar with the route inside the castle, and immediately rushed up without any confusion.

Hua Ershi also followed, because in her opinion, Shiranuotong's misfortune was also related to her.

It was because the Hua Legion failed to protect Hitomi Shiranui that the crow had the opportunity to **** her away.

"Boring... It seems that we can't make it today~lightnovelpub.net~ Fang Accelerator looked at Hua Eryi and Ling Xingye's leaving figures with complicated expressions.

After rushing out of the castle, a vision suddenly opened up.

During this period of time, the security forces closest to the amusement park had arrived, and the ringing of alarm bells could be clearly heard all around.

At this time, Ling Xingye didn't care about being caught and questioned by the security teachers, but only thought that it would be great if there was an ambulance.

Back on the ground, Ling Xingye found that Mushan Chunsheng had disappeared at some point. The Misaka sisters who fought against them also disappeared.

At this time, the flowers staying outside suddenly appeared, using "illusion" as a cover, to help Hua Ershi and Ling Xingye avoid the sight of the guards, and leave here quietly.

Misaka 10001 is also here, but Misaka Mikoto has already left.

"Onee-sama left suddenly, and asked Misaka to stay and inform the master. Misaka is happy that Shiranui-senpai was rescued, and is going to tell the master what happened just now."
