Chapter 874: Slippery

— Teleporters will be difficult to deal with, " Su Xiao muttered, and shields of various sizes immediately appeared around him. These shields were arranged randomly, but they were clearly positioned so that the line of sight was refracted.

Although he could limit the use of such abilities for a while, it would take a very long time for this restriction to cool down, and he didn't want to use such a trump card at the moment.

— This guy... Shirai Kuroko was stunned. After the first skirmish, he figured out how he could limit her superpowers. Due to the fact that the shields created a refractive effect, it was difficult for her to calculate the opponent's position. His translucent energy shields refracted the light well and made it impossible for her to know how far away he really was.

If she makes a mistake in her calculations and teleports the item incorrectly, she will accidentally be able to kill him, for example, by teleporting her rod directly into his head.

In fact, Shirai Kuroko was thinking too much. If she really tried to kill him, then Su Xiao's intuition would have warned him of the attack and allowed him to dodge.

His intuition surpassed that of many beasts, so Su Xiao wouldn't even be injured by it, let alone killed.

— A monster that exists only for battles. No, I have to save her, she's seriously injured, " Shirai Kuroko muttered as she looked at Kinuhata Saiya in her arms.

Kinuhata Saiya coughed up blood from time to time, which didn't add much confidence to her survival.

*Boom!*

Su Xiao charged straight at Shirai Kuroko. He didn't know why she was here, but compared to Kinuhata Saiya, Shirai Kuroko was more of a bargaining chip.

Hearing the sharp sound, Shirai Kuroko subconsciously sensed something was amiss and immediately used her superpower.

She decided to teleport as far as possible. Normally, she couldn't travel more than 81.5 meters in a single teleport, and she could only teleport what was related to her skin, and then the total weight should not exceed the limit of 130.7 kilos, although considering that she and Saya were middle school students, this was not a particularly big problem.

However, she wasn't going to stop at one teleportation. As soon as she teleported for the first time, she immediately made another teleport, although even such fast jumps did not allow her to throw off Su Xiao from her tail.

She teleported again and again, but Su Xiao kept up with her, constantly jumping from one building to another.

However, the problem was that Shirai Kuroko's spatial movement completely ignored all obstacles. Because of this, she wasn't affected by Su Xiao's aura, which meant that she spent a lot less effort on teleporters.

However, due to the fact that Academy City didn't have many buildings that were suitable for such jumps, Shirai Kuroko limited herself. Noticing this, Su Xiao began to focus on certain points and carefully observed the fluctuations in space.

Considering that he had experienced Heaven teleportation all the time before, it was very easy to keep track of something like this, as its ability was too immature.

The Battle Royale has officially begun. Shirai Kuroko teleported without end, however, she couldn't get rid of Su Xiao.

— What kind of superpower does he have? Tracking? And who called me? Shirai Kuroko was puzzled. She went to the store to buy some very adult underwear, when suddenly her phone rang and a female voice informed her that a murder had occurred in the seventh district of Academy City, and a female voice described in detail exactly where.

Shirai Kuroko was part of Justice, the organization that was responsible for ensuring the security of the seventh district, but killing clearly exceeded the limit of her authority.

At first, she thought it was a malicious joke from one of her classmates. After all, many people were envious of high-level espers.

But after receiving a few photos, Shirai Kuroko realized that it wasn't a joke. Destroyed buildings and a hand covered in blood clearly told her that her companion wasn't joking.

As a result, Shirai Kuroko first reported this to security, and then ran to the scene..

When Shirai Kuroko arrived at the right place, she first saw the corpse with its throat cut. She was only a middle school student, so she almost threw up first, and then she didn't have time to think about it. Using her ability, she teleported and saved Kinuhata Saiya, then without hesitation, she teleported away and started running away.

The moment she felt Su Xiao's aura, Shirai Kuroko knew that she couldn't handle this guy. Regardless of combat abilities or in terms of attitude to battle, they weren't on the same level at all.

Her opponent was ready to kill, and he was ready to kill without a shred of hesitation. Her opponent was very different from her, for in battle, she mostly only wanted to stop the enemy while trying not to hurt them too much, and she obviously couldn't kill anyone at all.

Shirai Kuroko's biggest advantage was that she knew who she could fight and who she couldn't. Right now, her enemy was obviously an assassin or special agent of one of the dark factions. If she decided to fight such a person from the "dark world", it wouldn't lead to anything good.

And since she couldn't fight, she could only run away.

*A clang*

As soon as the cold glare appeared in the dark night, Shirai Kuroko immediately disappeared.

Su Xiao stopped at the roof of the building.

— Girl, let's talk. I promise... That I won't harm you, " Su Xiao said with a kind smile that revealed his white teeth. And it was true. He really wasn't going to kill Shirai Kuroko. The fact that Shizuri Mugino had previously died at his hands was nothing more than an accident, although such a death was quite understandable, since she was the first to decide to kill him, which made his habit manifest itself.

— Hey, you look very much like a villain when you smile, " replied Shirai Kuroko, who had long had a cold sweat on her forehead, and after voicing this complaint, she immediately teleported away.

— No one believes the truth, but everyone always believes the lie, " Su Xiao said as he sat on the edge of the roof, took out a cigarette and lit it. Taking a drag on his cigarette, he spat out a cloud of smoke.

He didn't pursue further.

The person he was waiting for might have already arrived.

*Whew~*

Another girl appeared, and Su Xiao frowned, wondering why all the superpowers he met today were from the opposite sex.

It was a girl with double ponytails. She was wearing jeans, and bandages were wrapped around her chest, leaving most of her lower abdomen exposed.

— Hello, my name is Awaki Musujime. The girl, Awaki Musujime, was drenched in cold sweat, not because she was afraid of Su Xiao or his aura, but because she had a superpower like "teleportation", however, she once made a mistake in her calculations and because of an unsuccessful teleportation, she lost her leg, teleporting directly into the wall.

And no, it wasn't like she was buried in the sand. Her foot became one with the wall. Fortunately, she lost consciousness a couple of seconds after teleporting and woke up after the operation, thanks to which her leg was saved, although this incident left a shadow on her heart and now every time she used her superpower, she felt disgust and fear.

Every time she moved through space, she remembered that moment, the feeling of her bones, muscles, and nerves rubbing against the cement...

Hearing Awaka Musujime's words, Su Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

If he didn't join the science side as soon as possible, it would be an extremely dangerous time for him to stay in Academy City any longer.
