Superpowers of Sky City

"Do you know how big bosses talk?"

"how?"

"Kind, considerate, watertight, with a tact you can't go wrong with. They have a magical ability to turn wrong into right, black into white, and say things that hurt you as if they were for you. Think about it." Thomas Bailit shaved his beard with a dirty knife while talking, "I discovered their 'skill' when I was fired five years ago, it is beyond Your imagination. He told me that the development of automatic machinery and AI is now in full swing. Due to the pressure of shareholders, we have to consider firing some magnetic control technicians. I said boss, you can’t do this, I’m an old technician! Those newcomers only rely on righteousness Something will go wrong with the body work, we have to consider production safety!
Boss is a reasonable owner, he thought of a way for the old employees to survive, guess what kind of solution it is? "

Jenny Harper's gaze followed the razor knife, from the man's left hand past his weather-beaten dark complexion, to his gleaming alloy right arm, which was four times as thick as a normal person.

The prosthetic body of the "new generation of technical workers" is an outdated gadget that has been kicked out of the market early on because of its large size and few functions and many potential safety hazards.This old arm should have been modified privately. The evidence is that the boxy fist has a purple muzzle in the center. Compared with the prosthetic body itself, this gadget is a special electromagnetic gun from the Magneto State. Right against Jenny's temple.

"I guess..." Jenny swallowed, and gave up her plan to quietly press the alarm button, "He suggested you change to a prosthetic body?"

"Of course, old mechanics also need to be upgraded to keep up with the times. So me and a bunch of guys bought new models of prosthetic bodies produced in-house with annuities, and the boss gave us a big discount that makes people grateful. I have to say The prosthetic body is quite convenient to use, but there is a small problem... two months after we bought it, the company issued new regulations, and no threatening prosthetic body can be installed without permission."

After Thomas finished shaving, he scratched his blue chin: "In this way, I was kicked out of the company, and I didn't get a penny of liquidated damages. I only had an empty wallet and an arm that was so big. I I think I need to use my strengths to find something to do. Are you right? Should I find something to do?"

There was a threatening taste in the man's words: "Use my fucking arm to find something to do?!"

boom!boom!boom!The continuous bangs caused the four-story building of the electromagnetic induction bank to shake slightly, and banknotes sprayed out from the broken ATM machine, causing bursts of crazy cheers.The former technicians were yelling and yelling while grabbing banknotes, and the few customers squatted in the corner trembling with guns pointed at their heads.Jenny didn't dare to answer, Thomas smashed his prosthetic body on the glass window hard, and after a loud noise, the bulletproof glass shattered into countless fragments, and a transparent rain fell in front of the bank counter.

2 minutes ago, a dozen or so strong men with five big and three thick men took their guns and "new generation skilled workers" stepped into this small bank built in the suburbs of the Magneto State. Thomas and 4 accomplices controlled the employees and customers in the lobby , the remaining ten people ran upstairs to find the cash box.The heist was crazy but fast, and it all started when Jenny took a cone out of the freezer, and now the ice cream isn't melted, it's just covered in shards of glass.Thomas Bellit looked at her menacingly, and she managed a flattering smile. "I think so."

"That's the way it should be!" Thomas growled, "otherwise this thing would be useless!"

There was a deafening bang from upstairs, and the robbers seemed to have finally opened the cash box. An old man in red in the corner touched the wall, looking very disturbed.Thomas' accomplice pointed the gun at his head, and said rudely: "Be careful with the old thing, move your head again and it will explode."

Jenny swallowed nervously, and looked at the stooped old man with thinning hair.His ears seemed to be not very good, and he touched the wall again, before speaking slowly: "Sorry, sir. I just want to say..."

"What?" The robber poked his head with a gun.

"If you encounter difficulties..." The old man shrank his neck, "You can take... gentler measures. Think about the teachings of God..."

The robbers in the hall looked at each other and laughed loudly.Thomas laughed especially loudly.

"What will God say?" Thomas asked sideways. "Come on, tell me! What teachings are suitable for us?"

The old man raised his hand tremblingly, and the violent shaking made him look like a patient with Parkinson's disease.Jenny noticed that the hand was positioned very close to the gun.

"God will say..."

Under everyone's gaze, the old man's weak voice suddenly stopped, like the band muted when the chant was about to reach its climax.His withered palm grasped the barrel tightly, and the miniature submachine gun twisted violently from the front end, the alloy in his hand looked like plasticine!

The old man's thin body exploded with unimaginable strength at this moment. His right knee bounced up like lightning, hitting the robber's lower body hard, and then he kicked him to the other side of the hall with a side kick with his left leg.Before the face of the robber had time to deform due to the pain, he fell down together with his accomplice who was caught off guard 5 meters away.The weight of the adult man and the arm of the prosthetic body superimposed with the old man's vigorous kick, causing both of them to fall into a comatose state at the same time.The wall that had been "touched" by him shattered at this moment, forming a hole like a door, and the rest of the customers rushed to escape!

"You fucking——" No.3 robber pulled the trigger, the old man stepped forward, raised his palm, and pushed the muzzle of the submachine gun into the air.The bottom of his right palm hit the robber's heart, and the muffled sound of hitting the flesh made Jenny's ears buzz.The robber vomited blood and fell down on the spot. The old man grabbed the submachine gun and pointed it at the shocked Thomas.

"God will say." The old man continued the previous conversation, "Whoever does evil will be punished. Those who commit crimes will be judged."

With the little silver cross dangling from the old man's neck, Thomas gasped, his voice thinned with tension: "Damn it! He's a priest!!"

"That's right, child." The old priest tore off the cross from his chest, "Now is the time for you to repent."

The silver cross unfolded rapidly in his hands, and in the blink of an eye, it became a metal giant about the height of an adult man.The old priest jumped up carrying the huge cross, and broke Thomas' prosthetic body in the middle with just one blow, as easily as a blacksmith smashing scrap metal with a hammer.The old priest kicked it to the wall, and solved the last robber in the hall.

The gangsters on the second and third floors rushed to the lobby on the first floor at this moment. The leader of the robbers was wearing sunglasses, and sweat couldn't stop streaming from his face.The old priest hammered the cross heavily on the ground, and the marble floor was smashed into a deep hole. This move almost made the gangsters lose their sense of resistance.

The old priest glanced at the gun in the robber's hand contemptuously: "You plan to challenge a priest with this bit of firepower?"

"...No." The sunglasses robber said with difficulty, "Old man, we can't beat you. So let's talk about terms." He held a small remote control in his hand, and his thumb rested on the disturbing big red button . "Somewhere two streets away, there is a magnetic bomb I set up. In just one second, the magnetic turbulence can send the town to the sky."

The old priest frowned: "The skill of a technician is not for you to do this."

"But the magnet field fired me, I should find something to do!" The robber in sunglasses smiled nervously, his sweat ran across his face and fell to the ground, "The request is not high, let us go. Within 1 minute Give me the answer, or I'll press the button."

An unnerving silence fell into the bank lobby. The priest and the leader of the robbers looked at each other, and both sides were silently planning their next move.Jenny dared not even take a breath.After a brief silence, both sides spoke at the same time. "I..." "You..."

A horrific storm blew from outside the bank, the deafening explosion sounded like thunder, and the terrifying shock wave shattered the four glass walls at the same time!
Everyone looked at the hand of the sunglasses robber, including himself.He hasn't pressed that button yet.The robber leader said in horror: "I'm so stupid, so powerful?!"

In the next instant, a bullet from outside the door destroyed his remote control and even pierced his palm.A blond woman in a white coat flew upside down from outside the bank, her high heels sparking on the marble floor.The woman slammed on the brakes in front of the counter and replaced her revolver with six brand new bullets in an instant.

"Stop, superpowers, it's all a misunderstanding! I just want to tie you up for money—I'm stupid!"

The blond girl rolled on the spot and quickly dodged the surprise attack. A long knife with a very imperial style flew from outside the door, stabbing impartially at the position where she was a moment ago.At the same time, the black-haired girl with Ji's hairstyle rushed into the bank, raised a long knife in one hand, and grabbed the blond woman with the other.

"People who can say this kind of lines should not make any misunderstandings." Qin Qianbai said.

The blond woman dodged the capture with a low body, raised her revolver and fired twice.Qin Qianbai flicked the bullet away casually, and started the battle in the hall again.The communication and actions of both parties are so fast that the people who were originally here have only had time to realize the situation now.

The robber in the sunglasses finally felt the pain. He screamed like a child and knelt down covering his bloody palms.The terrified robbers began to fire indiscriminately. Hundreds of bullets were ejected in the lobby of the bank, but none of them could hurt the bodies of the two women, or even touch the corners of their fluttering skirts.They shuttled freely in the hail of bullets, like two highly skilled dancers dancing in the pouring rain, without getting a drop of water.

After all, the old priest lived a long time and made a judgment one step faster than the young man.He shouted angrily: "Ladies! Can you go outside and fight?"

"OK~" "Sorry for the trouble."

The two ignorant visitors responded, beat and left the barren bank hall, as chic as they came.Just as the old priest wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly sharply jumped backwards.Almost at the same time, a beam of colorful light smashed through the four-story building where the bank was located like a meteorite, and the crystal chandelier on the top of the hall fell with a bang, smashing to pieces on the ground.

A new uninvited guest stepped on the wreckage of the crystal lamp and came to this ravaged place, with a calm and natural expression like a tourist who walks into the supermarket to buy water when passing by.She walked out stepping on shards of glass, came to the front of the counter, pointed at the ice cream and asked, "What is this?"

Jenny looked blankly at the new guest. She has short colorful hair and wears a high-tech silver-white tights. At first glance, she looks like an alien who came to Earth for sightseeing.But what alien would be interested in ice cream full of glass shards?
She blinked, seeing better.The "alien" looked to be in his early teens, and it's reasonable for a ten-year-old girl to be interested in ice cream.

"It's... I think it's..." Jenny felt that her brain was almost broken, she said dryly, and it took a lot of effort to force out a reply, "Ice cream."

"Ice cream?" the alien repeated.

"A kind of food. It's sweet, iced, and makes people feel happy." Jenny said with the attitude of popular science for relatives' children.

The colorful-haired alien grabbed the glass-covered cone and threw it into his mouth.She chewed like food for a while, the shards of glass crunching between her teeth. "Very interesting food." The alien commented.

"It's interesting, isn't it?" said the third person kindly.

"very funny."

"Are you in a good mood?"

"Not bad, not bad." The alien turned around.A black-haired woman in a black hunting suit was standing behind her, looking at the girl who only reached her waist with a half-smile.Shi Yuling tapped the short arrow at his waist, and said in a surprisingly gentle tone: "Then can you tell me by the way, what is the reason why you smashed our boat?"

"Boat……?"

The alien was silent for about 3 seconds, as if recalling the past.

"Your vehicle. It's fragile and uninteresting."

"Ahaha, that's right, you bastard, stand where you are and grit your teeth!"

"No."

As if time slipped away unknowingly, and as if everything was an illusion, the huntress and the alien disappeared from the hall in the blink of an eye.They came and went abruptly, like a whirlwind passing by, only taking away Jenny's ice cream.No one spoke in the hall, the old priest leaned on the cross and thought deeply, the robbers trembled with their guns in hand, only the hapless man whose palm had been pierced was still crying on the ground.

Jenny plucked up the courage she didn't know where she came from, and asked in a low voice: "Gentlemen, is it over?"

The muzzles of the robbers floated up and down, looking very hesitant, full of a sense of hesitation immersed in philosophical myths.At this time, the door of the bank with only a metal frame was pushed open, and two customers came in from the main entrance. They were a gray-haired young man in jeans and casual clothes, supporting a pink-haired girl with a very good figure.

"Gongsun Ce, I'm a little seasick." Qi Luo was dizzy.

"Drink some hot water." The gray-haired young man patted her on the back.The old priest pointed to the corner of the wall friendly: "There is a water dispenser there."

"Thank you, sir."

The gray-haired young man walked up to the water dispenser, took a cup of hot water with a paper cup, swept the glass shards from the seat beside him, and helped his seasick girlfriend to sit down.After finishing all this, he looked up at this surprisingly bright building, pushed down his glasses, and said, "No offense meant, did you just rob a bank here?"

There was a series of loading sounds, and the nervous robbers aimed their guns at his head at the same time.

The gray-haired youth shrugged and raised a finger.

"Watch a little magic trick and relax?"

The glass shards in the entire hall flew towards his fingertips, like countless iron sands flying towards a large magnet.Those dangerous fragments were pinched into a crystal clear ball out of thin air, as easily as a child pinches confetti.The gray-haired young man casually threw the glass ball into the trash can: "Want to watch another magic show? I'll count to three and you will automatically put down your guns. This time there is no special function, no super equipment, it's just a little trick." .”

The robbers didn't speak, their hands were trembling uncontrollably.The gray-haired young man raised his index finger again, slowly moving it in mid-air, his voice was slow and long.

"3...2"

The eyes of the robbers followed the young man's fingertips until the finger stopped and slowly pointed towards them.

"1..."

The young man compared his right hand to a pistol, raised it suddenly, and said loudly: "Bang!"

"what!!!!"

The leader of the robbers who was shot in the palm was the first to scream and jumped up from the ground.Immediately afterwards, the robbers scattered like frightened chickens. They screamed and dropped their guns, scrambling to squeeze out of the bank's gate and run in all directions.

Qi Luo kept laughing while holding a hot water cup, while the gray-haired young man leaned against the counter, spreading his hands.

"How about my deception?"

Elandia walked in from the door and commented in his familiar tone: "Compared to four years ago, it has improved."

"Wow, thank you for the compliment." The gray-haired young man scratched his head, "So where are we now?"

"The chaotic magnetic field has disrupted all electronic equipment, and now I can only give you a broad answer." Elandia said, "We are in the United States of Urstes, the state of Magneto."

Gongsun Ce raised his head and looked at the sky through the damaged ceiling.

It is now three o'clock in the afternoon, and a series of colorful magnetic force lines occupy the clear sky of Magneto State like the smoke trails dragged by the plane at the celebration. Metals of different types are flying in the air along the magnetic force lines, and purple sparks bloom from time to time due to friction , building a labyrinth of electricity and metal in the sky.Qin Qianbai and the blond shooter used it as a foothold in the air, and they had a great time fighting.In the distance, a metal airship fell headlong into the wilderness like an ostrich, and the power plant was emitting thick smoke. Shigure Zero and the aliens flashed near the falling airship.

"It's such a nice place." Gongsun Ce sighed sincerely, "It feels like home."

Today is the eternal light calendar 2010, August 8th.This is the Magneto State in the southern part of the United States of Urstes.

Why, the superpower who should have enjoyed the summer vacation appeared here?
That goes back to a day ago...

Elandia Helaisen came to the night of the firmament.
