Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki

Misaki Shokuhou's brow furrowed visibly.

This was because Makoto Haramura's words were slightly beyond her expectations.

"Well, some people can quickly grasp the essence, while others can't do it their whole lives."

"I wonder what Miss Misaki Shokuhou's comprehension is like."

Makoto Haramura's mouth directly twisted, his provocative expression quite obvious.

"Learn what? There's no need. This esper will die here today."

Chapter 006: The Arrival of Deadlock

This was the arrival of an uninvited guest!

The voice didn't come from either Misaki Shokuhou or Makoto Haramura.

The source of the voice was someone dressed in full bright red knight's armor, but his knight's armor was significantly different from normal knight's armor.

This person... from the soles of his feet to his knees, elbows, shoulders, wrists, waist, back, and chest, his entire body had at least fifty sets of small wheels that looked like inline skates.

Not only that, but he also had two ultra-small jet engines on his back, about twenty centimeters in diameter and fifty centimeters long.

It was impossible to see his face, but this man was already rushing towards the two of them at a speed like that of speed skating.

"Looks like another delinquent group!"

Misaki Shokuhou, who had already noticed the high-speed intrusion of someone into this area at the same time as the knight's armor made its voice, had already stood up. She glanced at Makoto Haramura. She had already put it back into her handbag, but she took it out again and held it in her hand.

The remote control was her weapon. She was only safest when she held the remote control tightly.

"Even among delinquent groups, there are big differences. Besides, we are just staying together to keep warm. We haven't done any bad things."

Makoto Haramura noticed it slightly later than Misaki Shokuhou, but when Misaki Shokuhou looked at him with that kind of gaze, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

But when his sight was aimed at the knight's armors less than fifty meters away from them, his brow also locked together directly.

"Red knight's armor, this kind of attire..."

As if talking to himself, Makoto Haramura aimed while recalling. The guys in front of him gradually matched a group in the information that his underlings had collected for him.

"You are 'Deadlock,' right!"

"You actually know us."

The wheels scraped against the ground, making an ear-piercing, annoying 'ji ji ji' sound. In front, behind, left, and right.

All of the newcomers were wearing red knight's armor equipped with full-face helmets. Judging from the curves of their bodies, there were both men and women, but judging from their height and shoulder width, the composition of their members was also quite wide-ranging in age.

And now, this delinquent group called 'Deadlock' had completely surrounded Misaki Shokuhou and Makoto Haramura.

"You do look a little familiar."

Of course, it was impossible to see the expression of the leading man wearing the red knight's armor through the helmet.

And Makoto Haramura's face had completely sunk down.

"'Deadlock' is a non-ability armed group formed in the last six months. Its main target of action..."

"Is attacking ability users, right? These guys can only use this method to vent their incompetence."

Misaki Shokuhou's voice coldly interrupted Makoto Haramura's words directly.

She didn't have any understanding of this non-ability armed group, or rather, she didn't put any non-ability armed group in her eyes.

After all, these were all dregs of society, a group of people who attributed their own incompetence to the excellence of others, and only knew how to complain and lament every day.

As for why she knew these guys' goals.

Wasn't it because these wastes almost all had the same goal: to attack ability users to prove that they were no worse than ability users, and to protect their fragile self-esteem.

The atmosphere changed.

The atmosphere, which was already very heavy, had already changed from heavy to murderous because of the word 'incompetent' that Misaki Shokuhou blurted out.

"It's still different."

Makoto Haramura took half a step forward, vaguely blocking Misaki Shokuhou behind him.

"The members are about thirty people. Although it is an organization that has been established for about half a year, the success rate of attacking ability users is surprisingly high."

"At least fifteen powerful ability users have been killed by them, three of whom died and twelve were seriously injured. As for whether any high-level ability users are injured now, it is still unknown."

"You really know us very well."

The leading man in the knight's armor showed a very obvious surprised tone.

And Misaki Shokuhou also slightly furrowed her delicate eyebrows because of Makoto Haramura's words.

Makoto Haramura wouldn't say some useless nonsense to him for no reason, and she could also understand what Makoto Haramura meant.

This non-ability armed group called 'Deadlock' was very strange.

Where exactly were they strange?

What was strange was that their success rate in attacking ability users was really too high.

As everyone knew, the nature of non-ability armed groups had already been said just now.

A group of non-ability users who hated ability users, of course, could not allow ability users to join their group. Not to mention LV2, some more stringent organizations could not even tolerate LV1.

Only thorough ordinary people could become a member of them.

And the difference in power between an ordinary person and a powerful ability user seemed that there was no need to instill too much.

In terms of combat power, a powerful ability user could easily knock down ordinary people far exceeding himself by thirty times.

Therefore, those non-ability armed groups were generally able to succeed in attacking, almost 95% or more were LV2 ability users.

The few powerful ability users who were attacked were almost all girls with poor psychological quality. When they saw a large group of big men surrounding them, their calculation ability malfunctioned due to nervousness and fear, and then their ability failed.

What's more, non-ability armed groups generally stayed in the abandoned areas on the edge of Academy City.

The good children inside Academy City generally would not easily set foot here, so powerful ability users were even less likely to be attacked.

Therefore, the attack rate of this organization called 'Deadlock' was absolutely abnormal.

"However, your information is a little outdated."

"The number of attacks on powerful ability users is about the same, and we have already attacked three high-level ability users."

"However, they were lucky because the Disciplinary Committee arrived, so they were lucky enough to save their lives."

As the knight's armor's voice fell, the pile drivers with explosives in the hands of all the members were activated at the same time, making a deafening roar.

"And now, our goal is to eliminate the tumor of this city."

Although it was unclear whether the helmet worn by the leader of the knight's armor had the ability to 'resist mental attacks,' he provocatively started his pile driver and aimed it at Misaki Shokuhou and Makoto Haramura.

"Kill the espers."

The torrent formed by the sound of weapons being revealed completely tore through this peaceful summer night.

The cage woven by human malice enveloped Misaki Shokuhou and Makoto Haramura, as if it were some kind of evil ritual being held.

"Kill the espers who have taken everything from us."

Chapter 007: The Gun Magician

—'Deadlock'!

Simply put, from a literal analysis, it is named after the English word for being at a dead end, at a loss.

To put it a little more plainly, to understand it is a group of "students who are stuck in a bottleneck for some reason and cannot leave."

Different schools and grades.

In terms of identity, from pampered young ladies to delinquent youths, they are all there.

Now, these people have gathered here, the weapons in their hands are making a roaring sound, and their eyes are locked on Misaki Shokuhou and Makoto Haramura.

"What a bunch of stupid guys."

The girl's voice next to her was as clear and melodious as a nightingale, and the thumb of her slender eyebrows also pressed on the red button with the girl's voice.

"Damn."

"Ah!"

Makoto Haramura cursed directly, and in the second before the red lightning hit Misaki Shokuhou's delicate body, he directly reached out and grabbed Misaki Shokuhou's collar and pulled her into his arms.

At the same time, Makoto Haramura's free left wrist flipped slightly, and a claw similar to a grappling hook shot out from his sleeve and firmly nailed it to the canopy of a tree not far away.

"Looks like your ability didn't succeed."

With one hand around Misaki Shokuhou's slender waist, his body followed the contraction of the grappling hook, taking Misaki Shokuhou and flying towards the canopy of the tree at a rapid speed.

"Their speed is too fast, I can't aim."

Misaki Shokuhou also had a gloomy face, surrounded by extremely low air pressure.

Her ability was very powerful, and could even be called omnipotent, but now she still had a weakness.

In order to make the too powerful 'Mental Out' power easier to control, she set a 'self-rule' to weaken the power, and her 'self-rule' was that she must use the remote control to aim at the target she wanted to control.

"No, still no."

The two stood on a thick branch, and Misaki Shokuhou was still constantly trying to aim her remote control at the target during this process.

Even if she was lucky enough to aim the remote control at the target, the target would accelerate away from Misaki Shokuhou's lock in an instant.

"Perfect response, very knowledgeable about your abilities."

"This is not a whim, but a hunt specifically for you."

Makoto Haramura's tone was solemn.

The Deadlock he knew did not have such strange equipment. According to previous reports, they used abilities and normal weapons to attack, which was their attack method.

And this accelerating suit that looked like gears was obviously just equipped.

As for the effect?

Misaki Shokuhou's Level 5 power was directly scrapped, which had already reflected the power of this suit.

I'm afraid that even the helmet is not an ordinary helmet.

It is estimated that it is a smart program that will take action to avoid it for the owner as soon as it detects abnormal brain waves.

After all, even 'Mental Out', which stands at the top of the mental system, can never work on pure machines and non-human animals.

"I know, so I never trust anyone."

Anger?

It couldn't be said, it could only be said that the slightly different mood that had just arisen in her heart because of Makoto Haramura's words had completely calmed down.

"There's no need to kill everyone with one blow, it's more likely that your enemy leaked it."

Makoto Haramura stared intently at the 'Deadlock' leader who had stopped under the tree and did not maintain high-speed movement with the other members.

"It's actually a grappling hook, you're not an esper?"

Makoto Haramura didn't open his mouth first, but the Deadlock leader took the lead to ask Makoto Haramura about his doubts.

Espers don't use modern weapons.

Unless this ability requires modern weapons as a medium, although there is no such regulation, it has become like a fait accompli.

And even if they use weapons, no one would carry a grappling hook with them.

"Who the hell are you, the dark side?"

Not an esper, but more like a special operations personnel trained by Academy City.

"The dark side, huh."

"Buzz——"

It was as if a motorcycle was roaring.

"Buzz buzz——"

It was as if a red lightning bolt shot directly from Makoto Haramura's back.
