Chapter 81
When Wu Yan & company recovered their senses, they discovered that they are now standing upon a stone ground with nary a person in sight.
Wu Yan scanned the area as if this is within his prediction before sighing out loud.
Knew it, the matter really werent as simple as they are made out to be.
Hinagiku walked around and glossed her yellowish green eyes over the place. She didnt see anything that is particularly interesting, the place has nothing but stones. Wandering around a bit more she spoke out.
Wherere the others? Why are they all gone?
Mikoto and him are startled by this as well.
Thats right, why is it only us?
Maybe the location of teleportation varies depending on the timing of touching the stone plaque?
Observing this stony place that cant possibly hold more than 10000 people he rubbed his chin.
Theres no way else to go, where are we supposed to head to?
Said a frowning Hinagiku.
Dont tell me are duped by the auction firm right.
Electricity arced around her. Shes not a very patient person in the first place.
He dismissed her suspicion with a wave of his hand.
No, thats impossible, maybe if its just us the possibility would be high. But we came here with a lot of other groups, and within those groups there are many that comes from big backgrounds
Then whats going on, theres no place to go, do we have to pave our own road?
Squinching her eyes, bluish white lightning flashed.
Lets open up a path then!
What can he do but twitch his lip at the sight of railgun spouting some dangerous line. Looks like theres no other wya out of here anyway, he sighed and acquiesced.
We dont have any other alternatives, lets try it!
Should have done this in the first place!
Lightning churned around her as she grinned. With a wave countless lightning shot out from her and gathered in her palm forming into a ball of bluish white lightning. Randomly choosing a direction she fired.
Bam!
At the point of impact the stone wall shattered with a loud boom and is subsequently covered by dust.
The raging electricity around her died down. She brushed her bangs gallantly as she looked on at the destruction she caused.
Looking at her, he could tell the la.s.s is very happy at being able to fire the attack.
As expected, railgun is a dangerous one, a non violent one is not Railgun
When the dust finally settled a black revealed itself in front of everyone.
Heh heh
A certain scientific railgun is very pleased with herself.
See? You must pave your own path instead of following others.
Not just him, even Hinagiku and Lirin dont know what to say to her and the just exchanged glances.
Eh
she said when she saw the stone wall.
Look!
Turning over to look at it what happened surprised them.
The wall that has a hole blown into it is regenerating like it has a life all its own, the surrounding stone wall trembled and one could that the wall is getting repaired at a speed that is observable by the eyes and soon the hole disappeared.
This
Mikoto gasped at the regenerated stone wall.
It couldnt be, a wall monster again?
I wish that was the case
Said Wu Yan with bitter laughs after he looked over the brand new wall.
If it were another wall monster then we can just do away with them. However the wall before us shows no level display and therefore it is not a monster, its definitely a normal wall.
Normal? Its a growing wall, wheres the normal in that?
Maybe her jimmies were rustled after her attack failed but she threw a really good tsukkomi there.
It didnt matter though, railgun snapped.
biribiri
With a lightning orb within her hand and lightning raging around her she looked at the wall before speaking in a cold tone.
I dont believe
Fwahm she threw the lightning orb outwards in a violent fashion slamming the wall with a boom. The attack this time is clearly stronger than the last one.
Another explosion rang and dust flew again. The wall didnt regenerate, it flat out no-sell her attack.
He quickly stopped her when she whipped out a coin and took her railgun position.
Forget it Mikoto, even if you attack again it will just grow back lets try to search for some clues before taking action again!
She reluctantly withdrew but not before staring at the stone wall like its her sworn enemy and clenching her teeth.
Stupid wall despicable wall!
Hinagiku tapped her forehea din frustration.
Attacks are useless and theres no way to go. What do we do now
He thought for a while but no good ideas came.
Ikaros didnt stop calculating from the start and it seemed she has come upon something when she stopped the complicated formulas and tugged at his shirt. She pointed at a certain direction before continuing.
master, there seems to be some words over there
Words?
Before Wu Yan reacted, Mikoto ran over there with Hinagiku and by extension Lirin in tow. He yelled after them before piping down and guiding Ikaros towards them.
He didnt notice that when he pulled her hand, Ikaros blinked a bit when she saw their hands joined together. She mumbled while putting her empty hand to her chest.
Strange feeling
..
Destroy the place in an instant and the exit will appear!
Wu Yan & company exchanged sights.
In an instant
Spreading her arms wide as if shes embracing this stone s.p.a.ce she forced a laugh.
Destroy this place?
One cant blame her though, this place is not that big but its a pretty tall order to destroy this place in an instant, at least she didnt think she could do it.
Shes not the only one, Wu Yan is also having the same thought. Destroying the walls are simple in and of itself but to destroy this place in an instant would be a daydreamers babbling. At his tier this is still something he is incapable of. Plus he only have one AoE skill at his disposal, even then that skill is ineffective here.
Surveying the surrounding, Mikoto bitterly laughed.
The railgun has a high penetrative power but it cant be used for wide area attacks. Also, the coordinates of this place is still an unknown so I cant call lightning down on this place.
He doesnt have high hopes for her anyway. He knows her limits after all.
Frustrating as the whole matter is she doesnt have any wide area high impact abilities at her disposal. She did have the ability to call lightning down from the sky but this place look like some secret room or something, who knows if they are under a sky or not.
If its not under the sky she cant use it. This place looks very isolated as well so its hard to tell if shes able to properly feel the EM within the clouds.
All hope is not lost however as he turned to Ikaros.
Shes part of the reason why hes not freaking out. If its Ikaros cant dish out wide scale punishment then she wouldnt be Ikaros.
Shes a queen of the battlefield you see
Ikaros, can you do it?
She lifted her head and revealed a pair of expressionless eyes. The others however could feel something different. They could feel, the pressure slowly pouring out of her.
Although she didnt answer him, he already knows the answer.
I will be counting on you, Ikaros!
Yes! Master!
