A Certain Scientific Bee-eater

An untimely sound was heard not far away.

Pill looked at the door that was about to be knocked open, and couldn't help but remind,

"Everyone, it's better for us to escape as soon as possible?"

"Well, that's what I said, Misaka-san...study..."

Shokuhou Kaori was about to turn around, but his knees suddenly lost strength for some unknown reason.

"Shokuhou (Miss Shokuhou)?!"

The exclamations of others came from her ears, and her body fell into someone's arms before falling to the ground.

what exactly is it?

Shokuhou Misaki didn't think he had ever been attacked. He didn't feel any pain in his body, but his strength and consciousness kept going away. Could it be that he accidentally inhaled some coma gas or even... something Microorganisms or viruses that are too small to be seen?

Yes, how could they forget?

This is the headquarters of LSS. It's not surprising that a company that regards genetic factors as Lego blocks and has no respect for the birth of living things would place some micro-level 'little guards' in the server room that keeps important secrets, right?

"Quick... go..."

Although I don't know what the true identity of the 'guard' is, fortunately, it seems that she is the only one under attack so far, and staying here will definitely be dangerous.

The body is hot, like being thrown into a furnace.The surroundings began to quieten down, and both Misaka Mikoto's voice and the voices of others seemed to be gradually fading away.

(Ah... I always feel that this scene seems familiar...)

Without strength, consciousness is gradually drifting away, and it becomes difficult to even control the opening of the eyes.

Shokuhou Misaka looked at Misaka Mikoto, who was holding her face with a flustered face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

(It's really not good...)

Immediately afterwards, she completely lost consciousness.

ps: Misaka Mikoto: (panic) Shokuhou——!Hey, bee eater! (shaking) Damn, my body is so hot, what the hell is going on? !Doctor, hurry to the hospital! (hold up)

ps2: Captain: Miss Shokuhou Caoqi...what the hell is going on...hey...how does my vision feel...a little blurry...

ps3: An Island, Saigao!

ps4: Witch's Journey, great!

ps5: Hiro Saki, cute!

64. No need to exchange body fluids

boom--!

Perhaps the enemy finally couldn't hold back and used the blasting weapon. The door to the server room was torn apart, and the server equipment affected by the debris sparked and made a 'crackling' sound.

"It seems that they have been ordered to not worry about the data in the server."

Misaka Mikoto deflected the debris flying towards them with electromagnetic force, and glanced back,

"But this is normal. After all, it is important data, and it will definitely be backed up elsewhere."

"Misaka-san, Shokuhou-san...?"

The captain beside her couldn't help but ask.

A few minutes ago, when they were about to leave after getting the information they wanted, Shokuhou Caoqi suddenly passed out without warning. Not only that, her body became terrifyingly hot.

This is different from the external temperature. The body temperature that the human body can withstand is limited. With the increase of body temperature, the activity of the proteins that make up the human body will begin to decrease. If it accidentally exceeds 42 degrees, the proteins in the whole body will deteriorate. That would be really useless.

But what is terrifying and terrifying is that they have no idea of ​​the reason why Shokuhou Misaki has become like this.

"Bacteria? Virus? Or some kind of biological weapon?"

Misaka Mikoto looked at Shokuhou Kaori who was holding her in her arms and her face was flushed—her body was already sweating profusely, her dry and white lips were slightly open, like a mermaid thrown into the sun.

Misaka Mikoto gritted her teeth.

After having known each other for so long, she has long known what kind of person Shokuhou Caoqi is. They are essentially people who can't ignore the plight of others, but compared to her, Shokuhou Caoqi will be more helpful when helping others. Be careful and hide yourself.

Of course she knew that was the other party's way of protecting herself, because the other party's ability seemed to be powerful, but in fact she was vulnerable.

Shokuhou Cao Qi should not 'go to the front line' like her, but should 'sit behind the scenes', but when the other party asked to help, she did not refuse.

Because she is really confident, confident that she can protect her like many times in the past.

(all because of me)

If she hadn't brought Shokuhou Cauchi here not long ago, if she hadn't gone to Shokuhou Cauchi when the honey ants disappeared, if she had left the other party out of the way when she had guesses.

"...I won't let you down, Shokuhou."

Misaka Mikoto clenched her fists, the person she would rather be in a coma was herself.

"Huh? Miss Misaka?"

"I'm afraid there is a trap left by the enemy in that room, how about you?"

Misaka Mikoto shook her head slightly, then asked.

"We're fine...at least for now."

As the captain said this, he followed Misaka Mikoto out of the server room and into the flood control ditch outside. An unbearable smell rushed into his nostrils.

bang——

The pills walking behind threw a few test tubes into the gap they had blown up earlier, and the gelatinous substance that swelled after the test tube shattered firmly sealed the entire gap.

"That's good, let's go out quickly... what's the sound?"

grumble……

chirp-

It was like the cry of some disgusting creature, getting closer and louder.

Cha Cha-

At this moment, Misaka Mikoto noticed something strange. In the gap in the wall blocked by the pills, the gelatinous mass bulged outwards like an inflated balloon, and then,

Bang-!

With such a sound, a mass of black matter rushed out from the other side of the gap with the momentum of swallowing everything.

"Varied!?"

Captain and Pill were a little surprised.

"Run!"

And Misaka Mikoto, who was the first to come back to her senses, shouted like this, and immediately threw out several [Lightning Spears].

grumble--

A burst of scorched protein smelt out, like throwing a big stone into a pool, and a lot of black matter splashed out.

But this didn't stop it, the black torrent poured out to both sides, and in the blink of an eye, the three of Misaka Mikoto were surrounded.

"This is... vomit..."

Seeing the true face of the black substance, the captain couldn't help retching.

Breaking through the 'barrier' and surrounding them is a sea of ​​furs with dirty colors... It looks like this, no matter it is actually a large group of mice, how many thousands?Or tens of thousands?Misaka Mikoto couldn't imagine.

"Come to me!"

Misaka Mikoto yelled, not caring whether she might accidentally get hurt, and quickly threw a few [Lightning Shots] at the feet of Captain and Yaowan, which prevented them from becoming the ear food of mice.

"Damn, where are these mice hiding?"

Such a large number of mice seem to appear out of thin air, and it is also the headquarters of the biological company LSS, which can not help but remind Misaka Mikoto.

She didn't think the guy who manipulated genetic fragments to create monsters like 'flying dragon' would do something to these mice.

According to the current situation, the enemy completely seems to have obtained the magic flute that can manipulate the mice.

In such a narrow space full of water sources and lines, a large-scale release of electric shocks can easily cause dangers such as explosions. Although she is not afraid, she is not sure whether she can protect the two behind her.

But as long as she controls the range, she can create a 'safety circle' around her body.

As a power generator, Misaka Mikoto has always been unwilling to get close to small animals because she will unconsciously emit electromagnetic waves that make animals feel uncomfortable, but now she is a little fortunate.

The three hurried towards the exit.

As long as she goes to the wide ground, she can dispose of the rat group at will, so that this group of creatures that should not have been born will sleep in the ground forever. However,

"Pills?! Miss Misaka, please, please wait!"

A sudden exclamation came from behind, and Misaka Mikoto quickly stopped and turned to look.

"Pill, what's wrong with you?!"

The little captain was squatting on the ground, in front of her with the coma pill.

"Coma, very hot, the same symptoms as Shokuhou... Could it be these mice?!"

Misaka Mikoto snapped back to her senses.

In this world, rats are the animals that kill the second largest number of human beings. The main host of the Black Death that swept across Europe in the Middle Ages was rats.

"But the pill shouldn't have been bitten, and Miss Bee Shoku..."

Body fluids are not necessarily required. Hair and air may all be the means of transmission.

"Come on, it's too dangerous to stay here!"

Misaka Mikoto took Shokuhou Kaori from the princess's arms and put it on her back, and then mixed her coma pill with the captain, but only a few steps away,

bang——

"Mi... Saka... small"

The captain became the third person to pass out of a coma after Shokuhou Chaoqi and Pills.

"Hey--"

Misaka Mikoto didn't feel anything unusual about her body, which might be related to her being the LV5 electromagnetic barrier, but without knowing the source of the disease, she could only watch the people beside her collapse one by one. down and helpless.

(hateful……)
