Chapter 33: Natural Airhead in Battle
Thank you for o Zhang's evaluation vote. Recently, due to work-related matters, I have completely lost my writing inspiration, and updates may start to become less stable. Please forgive me.

"Why isn't he wearing an armband?" Seeing Kaito's gesture of raising his hands to show his identity, the expressions on the faces of the security guards relaxed a bit, but only one or two more cautious security guards were still aiming their guns at Kaito. This student in the city was not simple, and even if he was unarmed, he couldn't be careless for a moment.
Why are you giving me that look again? Can't you just let me through? I'm just an unarmed minor. If I had known it would be so troublesome, I should have just made a fake Wind Chime Commissioner badge! This thing is crucial for someone like me who makes a living by being a hero, not robbing people... what a waste!
Imagine this, when a rascal is about to be searched by the windbreaker gang, but is caught in the act by passersby. In such situations, there's no need to panic and make excuses, just quietly take out the windbreaker committee armband and put it on, and 99% of the problem can be solved; being afraid of trouble isn't just a privilege of otakus, humans as a species more or less all have a psychology of avoiding trouble, especially after getting a perfect excuse to escape.
Suddenly, a burst of thoughts emerged in his mind, and the actual time was only an instant; he was about to repeat the trick he used to deceive the bus driver, when a loud explosion suddenly came from behind the police cordon, knocking several unprepared police officers to the ground.
In the midst of swirling dust, a gigantic and blurry figure with strange roars seemed to have traversed from another dimension, just like Ultraman's arch-nemesis, making Xiaoyi doubt if he had walked into the wrong scene. As the raised dust slowly settled down, the blurry giant also gradually revealed its true appearance among the crowd.
"So big..."
He was shocked to see the giant, baby-like silhouette floating in the distance. The feeling of seeing it in an anime and seeing it in real life were two completely different things, just like watching a movie in a cinema versus on a computer screen. He had never been to a cinema before, so he really couldn't understand the difference. Although it was also because it had been a long time since he watched "Majin" and "Certain Science", he only vaguely remembered the main storyline of these two works, but that was only a small part of the reason.
"What the heck is that thing?!" One of the newly joined security guards, startled by the sudden appearance of a gigantic monster over there, asked the veteran guard next to him, holding his submachine gun, "Are all the enemies we're facing as a security team these irrational monsters?"
"Don't ask me!" The old team member signaled the other team members to expand their vigilance, speed up the evacuation of vehicles on the highway overpass, and muttered: "Is it that crazy scientist's biological weapon?"
"Hmm, most people have been taken down by Mokuyou Haruaki. Currently, the only ones who can provide reinforcements are us. The nuclear reactor is nearby, and in this emergency situation, we can't afford to wait for further reinforcements from other troops." A guard who looked like a squad leader quickly analyzed the current situation and made a decision, starting to give orders to his fellow guards: "Newbie, you and this Wind Discipline Committee member stay behind and continue to evacuate vehicles while keeping watch. Everyone else, follow me to provide reinforcements! I permit opening fire!"
“GO!GO!GO!”
The guardsmen heard the captain's call and immediately put down their work, carrying M4s and other weapons to rush to the location of the monster. One sniper, armed with a Barrett M82A1, had already begun firing at the monster from a distance. The effective range of about 1600 meters and the monster's massive size meant that the sniper did not need to consider factors such as wind direction, humidity, and recoil, but simply needed to put the monster in his sights and pull the trigger. The bullets from the sniper rifle, due to their large caliber and explosive charge, could inflict even greater damage on the monster's massive body.
Of course, this requires the premise that this monster belongs to normal biology. Is 'Fantasy Beast' a normal creature? Kai Tsurugi indicates that this thing running out of the beautiful woman's brain rather than her lower body does not belong to the category of normal creatures. He, who can already foresee the result of the attack, has long followed behind the security team and rushed towards the direction of the monster, leaving only one new security team member who did not dare to drop his guard line and assign tasks, shouting anxiously.
It's unclear whether it was due to the urgency of the situation, but the police officers who were rushing to reinforce the front lines didn't notice the extra tail following behind them. However, the person trailing behind them couldn't help but lament in their heart: Didn't you already know that Soten no Ko's fainting spell was just a false alarm? Why are you still rushing forward with such zeal?
"I'm just afraid of the butterfly effect causing deviations in the results! Yes, that's right!" Jie Lü Chū Yì clenched his fist and found an excuse for himself, so it wouldn't be considered a violation of his energy-saving principle. Although it was energy-efficient, I really couldn't do something that would abandon someone to death and go back on my promise! The former is not allowed by Mr. Conscience, and the latter is the self-esteem of men acting up.
Since I promised to pull Soten no Ko from the darkness, now that I've encountered a chance to solve the problem, how can I just stand by and do nothing? When she wakes up and asks about it later, should I honestly answer that when I had the opportunity to do something, I didn't do anything and just stood there with a clear conscience? If I really answered like that, even Intetsu Ichijou, who thinks he's unrelated to 3D girls, would lose face in front of Soten no Ko from now on and retreat whenever he sees her.
"How can this be fixed! That monster is getting bigger and bigger under our attack! We're completely at a loss against this thing!" The captain of the guard team shouted in frustration as he caught a glimpse of the 'Fantasy Beast' growing larger and larger under their attacks.
"What should we do, Captain? That's a nuclear reactor over there!" One of the security guards was at a loss for what to do in this situation. Even when facing capable culprits, the firearms they held could still be somewhat effective, but these monsters that grew stronger the more they were attacked had completely exceeded their understanding.
"Be careful!"
As soon as the security guard finished speaking, the "Fantasy Beast" had already pried out a concrete block from the ground and threw it at the people who were running and shooting at it. The concrete block flew over quickly, almost at the same moment when the security captain's warning was spoken, the concrete block had already arrived in front of a security guard who was stunned by the sudden attack.
In the iron-studded pupil, the concrete block that was thrown over by the monster in front of me is getting bigger and bigger; wanting to dodge is already too late, this frightened stiff body has no time to move to a safe position, will I die? Must be crushed to death by this concrete block? No, I don't want to die here! Who can save me, Aizawa! Save me!
In the blink of an eye, Intervale Yori, who had been trailing behind the security team, pulled out a aluminum card from his waist pack and flung it at the concrete; before the high-speed vibrating card could penetrate it, he changed the frequency of the heavy particles inside the aluminum card, causing it to explode within the concrete. As the concrete exploded and stone fragments flew everywhere, Intervale Yori rushed ahead and grabbed Ironside, who was frozen in terror, and rolled away with her to one side.
The natural foolish expression of the protagonist is simply speechless, and he was actually scared stupid in that emergency situation. Are all the people in the security team like this? No wonder they are always annihilated collectively in the animation, it's easy to understand with this level.
"It's unacceptable to behave like this with taxpayers' money."
Tetsuo, still in a daze, finally came to his senses and was relieved to find that he wasn't dead, but instead being tightly hugged by the boy who claimed to be the Wind Discipline Committee member, with a mischievous grin still plastered on his face.
Unexpectedly, I was saved by a high school student! The iron-clad face turned red with embarrassment, struggling to break free from the embrace of the young traveler, and responsibly warned: "Aren't you supposed to be with that newcomer evacuating vehicles? This matter is not something a child like you can handle, hurry up and leave this place!"
Originally, girls' bodies were so soft, no wonder people say women are made of water. Jie Lu initially had some lingering thoughts about Tie Zhu's soft body, but was soon amused by Tie Zhu's words, this kind of talk coming from a clumsy and naive girl like you really has no persuasive power at all!
