Chapter 868.2: Attack
After thinking about it, Su Xiao realized that most of the enemies he would encounter in this world would be mostly 'espers' with a small sprinkling of mages.
As for espers and their superpowers, their ranking system was quite simple.
There were only seven levels, namely:
«Level 0. An incompetent esper, unable to bend even a spoon with his ability, but this does not mean that he is weak. Often, the abilities of Level 0 espers cannot be measured or used without special conditions. About 60% of students belong to level 0.
Level 1. An esper with a weak superpower can barely bend a spoon with it, but can use this ability in everyday life.
Level 2: An esper with a superpower that can provide some help in everyday life.
Level 3. An esper with a strong superpower can bring certain comforts to their daily life and provide some help in battle.
Level 4. An esper with a powerful superpower, these espers are already of some use to the army.
Level 5: An esper who can fight an army alone.
Level 6. A person who has become a match for the God of Magic without giving up his humanity.
Level 7.»
Espers were interesting people. They were often physically no stronger than ordinary people, with the exception of espers with the ability to improve their bodies.
However, this didn't mean that they were weak. There were countless superpowers tied to electricity, space, force fields, and mental control. By projecting their own inner world onto their abilities, espers could create truly unpredictable attacks and defenses, which completely compensated for their shortcomings.
Relying on his perception, Su Xiao began to search for a way out of the lab.
After knocking down one of the doors, he ended up walking out of the lab.
It was probably between 8 and 10 p.m. right now. Streetlights were already flooding the streets, but Academy City was also flooded with colorful lights.
Cars kept passing along the roads.
In Academy City, only teachers or staff could drive cars. Students were strictly forbidden to drive. Students could only use buses, the metro, and other forms of transportation.
Su Xiao jumped onto the roof of a three-story building nearby in no time and looked around.
Academy City was 20-30 years ahead of the rest of the world in development. In fact, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that he was 50 years ahead of the rest of the world.
Academy City was truly a thriving city.
However, in Su Xiao's opinion, it was a large-scale testing ground for various tests. For the sake of developing superpowers, a large number of qualified people were drawn to this place, and then various experiments were carried out.
But this had nothing to do with Su Xiao. He was just a guy passing by. Right now, all he wanted to know was where Tsuchimikado Motoharu was now. Thanks to the original work, he knew that this guy was a double agent who worked on both the magic side and the science side, and at the same time had both the powers of a mage and an esper.
This might have seemed like a good development, but it wasn't. After developing superpowers, an esper should not use magic, otherwise it would lead to a serious backlash, starting with serious injuries and ending with instant death.
Fortunately, Tsuchimikado Motoharu was smart enough. He found out about this before he developed superpowers, but he still decided to develop his superpowers in the end. This became his key, allowing him to stay between science and magic, and in the end, he sided with science and came to Academy City and passed on important information to both the scientific side and the magical side. Because he was quite an important informant, neither side wanted to touch him, but they didn't trust him very much either.
Such a choice was much more reliable than being a one-sided spy.
But being such a person and constantly receiving information and passing it on to the other party was by no means a simple matter. If a mistake was made in some place, it would eventually draw the attention of two forces to his person at once.
In order to get the right information from the scientific side, Su Xiao needed to act fast, so fast that the big shots wouldn't have time to understand anything. Well, or just become a part of it.
As for the magic side, Su Xiao didn't even consider it as it was too chaotic.
The night wind blew over the figure of Su Xiao standing on the roof of the building. He was thinking about what he needed to do first, when suddenly, a green pillar as thick as an arm pierced through the night sky and flew into it at an extremely high speed without any warning!
