Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 17 The Arrogant
Gongsun Ce opened his pocket watch to confirm the time.

The current time is 7:25, and the two people who crossed the small half of the fixed-wing area by pigeons are standing in front of the gate of the sewage treatment plant area in this area.

"The target's name is Takizawa Yoshihisa, a former researcher from Zero Island. Impermanence can speculate that he is in the realm of the gods. The specific ability is unknown."

"Did Mo Yuankai give any details?"

"The information dealer said that he judged the destination from the abnormality of the water flow. Judging from his description, this time we may face an enemy who can use water to fight."

Gongsun Ce flew directly over the gate with Alice, and superpowers were extremely useful at this time.

"Using water to fight... this time the enemy is a magician?"

When riding a pigeon before, Alice told him some common sense about impermanence.

The barbaric appearance method that I have seen twice is mostly manifested as the strengthening of physical ability, and the Brahma appearance method used by Alice herself is the manipulation of space or time.And this time the hunter's description reminded him of the strange appearance in the law of impermanence.

According to Alice, occult magicians are often good at manipulating the surrounding environment, or generating flames, lightning, energy balls, etc. out of thin air as means of attack.They are like magicians in fantasy novels. If we compare them to the superpowers in the capital of the sky, they are common energy-releasing powerhouses.

Alice shook her head: "Not necessarily. Water that is available everywhere is a very convenient material, and there are also many psychic magicians who use water as a medium to activate their abilities to launch illusions or mental attacks. Before actually seeing the enemy , It is not feasible to rely on one-sided intelligence to judge capabilities.”

The impermanence of psychic appearance is mostly manifested as illusion, psychic suggestion or mind control.It seems that the means of impermanence are surprisingly many.

"Now we are at the place. I need to remind you that this place is not a small broken factory in the old city. The modern sewage treatment plant covers an area of ​​at least 2.5 square meters, which is equivalent to more than three large football fields. Size. This still only looks at the occupied land and does not consider the building area. If the pump room, laboratory, dehydration machine room and other facilities are included, I am afraid that we will not be able to check this place in one night."

What Gongsun Ce said is true. They are now walking in the aisle in the middle of the green space, and they can see huge circular sewage pools neatly arranged on both sides, and there are more facilities waiting for the two of them that they cannot touch normally.Alice Adar visibly trembled when she saw these buildings—the top of each circular pool was covered by a layer of flat fleshy walls, and the gray-blue fleshy pieces had green lines glowing in the darkness. Shining brightly, this is undoubtedly the proof that they are the creations of the city's biochemical technology.

Alice swallowed, and said nervously, "Tell me what these biochemical flesh walls are first."

"The scientific name is Clean Biochemical Meat Wall, and there is a point in the middle like Biochemical Horse and Biochemical Pigeon. We usually ignore this detail when we talk about it verbally."

"It's really called biochemical meat wall?! This is the first product of biochemical technology I have seen today. Why do your researchers always have trouble with this thing?!"

"I don't know, maybe the lunatics in Cecil's laboratory think that big pigeons, big horses and big meat are cooler and more handsome than giant laser gun satellite laser robots."

Gongsun Ce understood the hunter's confusion very well, and he also felt that the giant robot was much more handsome than these messy biochemical products.It's just that the results of the research by the white coats are really of some practical value. They haven't smelled any obvious odor since they walked by the sewage pool, which is the credit of these biological tissues.

The corner of Alice's mouth twitched: "It's obvious that robots and biochemical monsters are very strange... Are you familiar with the terrain of this area? Which steps do you usually go through first when dealing with domestic sewage?"

She doesn't like giant robots, what's the matter with this woman!

"I visited here once when I was in high school. The sewage treatment plant in the capital of the sky also uses the activated sludge method. A few years ago, the white coats bred a new variety of water purification microorganisms to match the biochemical meat wall you just saw. It can greatly improve the efficiency of water purification, and we generally call that thing..."

"I guess it's water-purifying biochemical mud."

"You are becoming more and more like a local." Gongsun Ce clapped his hands to show encouragement, "According to the few memories I have left, the sewage will first flow into a large sedimentation tank before being purified by microorganisms."

"Then let's go to the place where the sewage flows to do a test first. If he really used his ability here, he should be able to see some traces... Oh my god, it was a fight with Tyros before dinner, and a biochemical test after dinner." Tossing sewage next to the meat, my stomach is more tormented than my brain when I perform a task."

On the bright side, at least your heart isn't stopping.

"On the bright side, at least you didn't eat stinky tofu, durian and fermented bean curd tonight."

"If you can't think of something good, there's no need to force yourself to speak." Alice retched.

The two of them didn't stop when they were talking. They relied on the map to confirm the direction from time to time, and ran for a while before they finally saw the sedimentation pool mentioned by the superpower—a row of square pools divided by aisles with railings. .

The turbid sewage rushes in the pool, and the sediment is quickly filtered out in the process.Although the staff of the sewage plant had evacuated before the arrival of the two, these large facilities were still running automatically.

This time, there was no biological tissue above the pool, and the smell of sewage rushed into Gongsun Ce's nostrils.He observed that there were still some grayish-blue fleshy roots remaining on the edge of the square pool, and it seemed that the staff took the biochemical fleshy wall with them when they evacuated.But the sewage pool seen in the front is covered by clean meat walls, maybe the evacuation was in a hurry and there was no time to finish it...

"wait a second……"

Alice took out a pen and paper, and drew a sun-like symbol on a note-sized piece of paper.She tried to let the note touch the sewage, but failed several times with a green face.

"Exercise your gentlemanly demeanor."

"Need help and say it sooner."

Gongsun Ce pointed to the sedimentation tank, and the note in the hunter's hand floated down, and was pulled up by an invisible force after being in contact with the sewage for a second.

Tonight, the sky is pitch black, but fortunately, Gongsun Ce has gradually adapted to the dark environment. He saw the sun symbol drawn with a black pen gradually transforming into bright red.

"I guess it's a sign of a reaction."

Alice tore off the note: "Everyone can see it. Be prepared, the dragon worshiper will arrive first, and he may—"

"He may attack us at any time! No, no, little girl. Before that, there are more important things for you to worry about."

A strange sarcasm came into the ears of the two of them.

The voice sounded a little dull, as if it was blocked by something, but the speaker had no intention of covering himself.I don't see how loud the man's voice was, but his words overshadowed the noise in the pool, making it clearer than the conversation between the two just now.

Gongsun Ce and Alice turned their heads at the same time, and a tall figure was walking out of the darkness.

"Did you hear that? Not bad, at least your ears are not deaf!"

Alice drew out her short arrow vigilantly: "Are you?"

This is a tall, informal man.He was wearing a white shirt and suit trousers, none of the buttons at the collar of the shirt were buttoned up, and his chest could almost be seen; behind him was a black overcoat, and a silver-white mask was on his head, missing [-] The outline of the officer, only the messy black hair exposed above the mask can be seen.

A strangely dressed man walked over slowly, pointing the faces of the two of them with his fingers: "Look at your stupid looks. A weird-looking hunter leads a stubborn student to hang around here, and his attention is all on the smelly pool I didn't even notice anyone behind me in the house. Hahahaha!"

The masked man didn't respond to Alice's question, but just laughed out loud in an extremely rude manner.That appearance made Gongsun Ce very unhappy, what he hated most was such rude guys.

Gongsun Ce frowned: "You—"

"I planned to deal with the matter, but unexpectedly, I watched a farce along the way. I laughed to death."

The words were interrupted as soon as they were spoken, and the masked man didn't pay attention to the superpower user at all.He turned his head and said to the empty dark place: "What do you think, girl?"

"I think you're rude."

A cold female voice came from the dark, which made Gongsun Ce and Alice nervous at the same time.They had already raised their vigilance when the man appeared, but they didn't realize that there was a fourth person at the scene!

"No one cares about your opinion! You just have to agree with me."

"Continuing from the previous sentence, I think you are very unqualified."

"Little girl, are you finished?"

Another silver-white mask emerged from the darkness.The owner of the second mask steps out from behind the man.

She has long black hair, wears a close-fitting strong suit, has a well-proportioned figure without looking thin, and holds a black long-handled sword in one hand.Unlike the arrogant man, Gongsun Ce clearly felt the woman's gaze.Even though he couldn't see the expression clearly through the mask, he was sure that the other party was watching him at this moment.

The masked man picked out his ears, and said disdainfully: "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up?"

Alice ignored the man's clamor.She calmly said: "I am Alice Adar, the hunter of the kingdom, and I am investigating the dragon worshipers who have sneaked into the capital of the sky with this assistant. Unknown man in the iron mask, may I ask why you are here?" come here?"

"A small character dares to talk nonsense without shame, what is wrong with this world!"

For the first time since the man appeared, the two felt his gaze.It seemed that until this time, hunters and superpowers were not in his eyes for the first time.

The masked man took out a wooden token from his pocket, and shook it in his hand.

"The Ritual and Sacrifice Hall of the Ministry of Rituals of the Empire is doing business, and everyone who has nothing to do with idlers and others will get out."
