Nine Hundred and Ninety Technology VS Magic?

In the dark alley, the fire was like ignited gasoline, rolling up heat waves, turning into flames sweeping around, while baking the walls and the ground.

The high temperature that was originally brought about by the scorching heat was like magma, and the temperature surged instantly.

The sound of the air being burned was creaking like being evaporated.

In an instant, the space within three meters in diameter was roasted into coke, making the ground and walls of the asphalt road seem to melt a little.

If someone was hit by such a flame, it wouldn't take long for his entire body to be turned into ashes, leaving nothing behind.

That's enough deadly force.

Ordinary people simply cannot resist this power.

In Academy City, if you want to use this level of power, without the Lv. 4 anger ability, it is impossible to do it, right?

Of course, the key is not whether it can be done, but what will happen to the people who are hit.

Fortunately, no one was hit.

"This is really a special way of saying hello..."

As if rushing out at the nick of time, less than a few meters away from the burning place, Fang Li half-kneeled on the ground while protecting the frightened Index, raised his head, look forward.

There, the previous voice came out.

"Maybe it's a little too enthusiastic for ordinary people, but there's no way. This is a magician. Since you have touched this part, you can only accept it."

Saying these words, a tall figure stepped out from the flames ahead.

The person who walked slowly out of the flames was a person over two meters tall, with red shoulder-length hair, thick silver rings on the fingers of his hands, and earrings on his ears. A man dressed like a priest with a barcode-like tattoo under his right eye.

Faint fluctuations of magic power fluctuated on his body, telling Fang Li the identity of the other party.

Who else but a magician?

"Stiyl Magnus."

The visitor seemed to be chatting,

With a malicious smile, he announced his name like this.

"It wasn't necessary to report the name, but since the one next to you has already reported the name, then I will be together."

Saying so, the magician who called himself Stiyl took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit the flame directly on his finger, ignited it, and exhaled smoke.

"Of course, if there is a need to report another name, then I am happy to do so."

Another name.

That refers to the magical name of the magician.

Modern magicians will call themselves their wishes and goals in Latin, as another name for themselves.

That is the magic name.

The magic name is not the name that is reported when using magic, but the name that is only reported when the greatest awareness is required to fight.

Therefore, the act of reporting the magic name is tantamount to letting the enemy see his cards and strength. Even if he sacrifices his life, Burning Soul must be carried through to the end.

Now, the magician named Stiyl was referring to this matter.

His eyes were fixed on one person all the time.

Stare at Index.

"...!"

Index, who received the opponent's gaze, was suddenly shaken.

Fang Li, who was protecting Index in his arms, could feel that the girl's body was shaking.

Presumably, Index should really want to escape, right?

From the fact that this one launched an attack without saying a word before it appeared, it is obvious that it is in the hands of the enemy.

However, Index gave up on doing so.

"wait!"

Index gritted her teeth and spoke to Stiyl.

"Your target is me, right? Please let this person go!"

The reason why he didn't run away was because of Fang Li.

She clearly regarded Fang Li as a pervert just now, and she probably still does so now, but Index chose to stand up to prevent Fang Li from being affected.

Facing Index like this, Stiyl's complexion didn't even change a bit.

No, rather than saying that his expression didn't change, it's better to say that he deliberately maintained his indifference.

"In that case, come with me."

Stiyl spoke extremely coldly, but changed the tone of his words.

"That's what you say, but the pervert you're defending doesn't seem like you intend to act like you haven't seen anything."

This sentence made Index startled, raised her eyes, and stared at Fang Li.

There, Fang Li's expression has always been quite calm, unlike Index's, full of wavering.

"A magician?"

Fang Li flicked off the sparks that were about to fall on his skin, pulled Index, and stood up.

The words of the mouth are like this.

"I don't care about magicians, but this is Academy City. There are countless capable people who can get angry. Don't you think that you can win if you can breathe out fire?"

Fang Li's tone seemed a little impersonal, but it was a half-smile.

"The same thing can be done with an incendiary bomb. If you want me to pretend that I haven't seen anything, why don't I get something that I can see?"

That statement, apart from stimulating the enemy, has no second purpose.

This made Index's eyes widen.

But Steele laughed.

"well said."

Stiyl put aside the cigarette in his hand, and took out a card instead.

A card with a mysterious text engraved on it.

Turning around, Stiyl's eyes became dangerous.

"How about this?"

Magic power emerged from Stiyl's body.

"———TIAFIMH (My hand has fire)——"

"————IHTSOTS (its shape is a sword)——"

"———AIHTR (his job convicts)——"

The flames burst into flames.

That was the flame that engulfed the surrounding flames, flowed like an air current, and engulfed Stiyl's hand.

In the next second, the flames turned into swords.

"Flame Sword ()!"

Holding the flame sword in hand, Stiyl began to charge towards Fang Li.

The hot wind started blowing.

"Danger!"

Index didn't even think about it, she just planned to rush out and block Fang Li's blow.

Regarding this, Fang Li just spit out two words with a calm face.

"Stupid."

The voice fell.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

It was gunfire.

"Puchi!"

The sound of bullets sinking into flesh and blood followed.

Stiyl's body froze in the charge.

On its flank, blood began to flow.

People are slowly falling down.

"Boom!"

The scorching flame sword that compressed the flame exploded and disappeared into the air.

All the movements at the scene also began to disappear.

Index froze.

And Fang Li, who did not know when he was holding a gun in his hand, was still smoking from the muzzle.

"Oops..."

At that moment, Fang Li smiled as if he had done something insignificant.

"It seems that technology is more powerful than magic."

Only then did Index react.

"What... what?!"

An unacceptable scream resounded from Index's mouth.
