Chapter 872: Conditions and Bargaining Chips

After a moment of silence, Su Xiao continued:

"There is only one clue to the codex. There is a Level 0 ability-less person in Academy City named Tsuchimikado Motoharu. Find him, and I can get the subsequent clues. This is the purpose of my coming to Academy City."

Some information that would be exposed during the action was revealed by Su Xiao, such as a codex with an unknown name, Tsuchimikado Motoharu who had clues, and these were all true information.

The attitude Su Xiao showed was to disguise himself as a member of some organization. He only showed martial force. As for alchemy, it still needed to be revealed 'inadvertently'. That might be a life-saving opportunity.

"As for that codex, according to existing data, that thing is extremely dangerous. If it cannot be taken away safely, I suggest destroying it."

After Su Xiao explained his purpose, he began to wait for Aleister's reply.

"You, where are you from."

Aleister spoke, the question was very tricky. If this question was not answered well, it might lead to the breakdown of the negotiation.

"Magic, strange creature cleaning and investigation organization. You can treat the organization I belong to as a demon-hunting family, specifically responsible for cleaning up magicians and magician creations. By my generation, it's the third generation."

Su Xiao's palm stretched out, and Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy surged.

"My power is not suitable for magic, nor can it be counted as science. This is a power of a heritage system."

Su Xiao could be sure that Aleister could sense the special nature of Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy. This was an energy extremely targeted at spellcasters. Precisely because he possessed Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy, Su Xiao chose to contact Aleister. Aleister hated magic, and at the same time, Su Xiao was betting, betting that Aleister couldn't analyze Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy.

"Is that so? Your words need to be verified, but the power you possess can indeed be called the natural enemy of magicians."

Aleister's attitude was still unclear. Discovering this, Su Xiao threw out an attractive bargaining chip.

"As a thank you for stepping into your territory to find the codex, during the period of looking for the codex, I can help your side do things. As for what specific things to do, the reason doesn't need to be told to me. Time, location, characteristics or photos of the target, killing or saving, during the period of looking for the codex, I can do these things."

If Aleister was still hesitating before, Su Xiao's words above made Aleister start to be moved.

Imagine, a temporary subordinate who was powerful, didn't ask for the reason for the mission, and was ruthless enough. This was what kind of perfect subordinate. Moreover, this subordinate was more powerful than 99% of the subordinates Aleister could directly mobilize. When Aleister commanded 'subordinates', most were through utilization and couldn't directly issue orders, including Accelerator, plot protagonist Kamijou Touma, etc.

Su Xiao's expression was different. If there was a mission, there was no need to beat around the bush. Time, location, target, nothing else was asked.

However, Su Xiao appeared too perfect, perfect to the point of being suspicious. Su Xiao also understood this, so he showed an imperfect side when contacting Awaki Musujime, irritable and suspicious. Through the AIM Dispersion Field, Aleister must have discovered this personality of Su Xiao, which was what Su Xiao wanted Aleister to see.

"You have sincerity. Since that's the case, you temporarily have the right to act in Academy City. As a return, you have to do one thing first."

As soon as Aleister's words fell, Su Xiao received a hint.

【Hint: Hunter has joined the science side faction: Academy City.】

【Because the hunter joined the science side faction, the faction shop is opened.】

【Faction shop location: Unknown, need to find it yourself.】

【Hint: Completing Aleister's commission as the science side leader can obtain corresponding faction contribution points.】

【Hint: When contacting Tsuchimikado Motoharu, faction contribution points will play a crucial role.】

Seeing these hints, Su Xiao felt relieved in his heart. His choice was very correct. Joining the science side not only made future actions more convenient but also related to the Tier 3 promotion mission. If he couldn't act automatically in Academy City, he couldn't complete the Tier 3 promotion mission at all.

"Before you see Tsuchimikado Motoharu, do one thing first. Moreover, Tsuchimikado Motoharu is an important chess piece of mine."

Aleister's meaning was very clear. Seeing Tsuchimikado Motoharu was fine, but he couldn't touch the other party.

The huge room was quiet. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang beside Su Xiao looked at the various metal pipes in the room, and its dog teeth were a bit itchy.

Su Xiao stepped on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's front paw. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog face was stunned. That little look seemed to say: "Master, don't worry, I'm just looking, absolutely not chewing. Xiang Bubu is not stupid."

Not long after, Awaki Musujime teleported into the windowless building and teleported Su Xiao outside the building.

The night wind blew. Su Xiao took a deep breath. Although it didn't achieve the expected effect, his goal had been initially achieved.

"In other words, we are partners from now on?!"

Awaki Musujime received the instruction, looking lifeless. She didn't want to be partners with Su Xiao.

"Probably so. So, what is that mission."

Su Xiao still remembered Aleister's sentence before, which was to do one thing first before seeing Tsuchimikado Motoharu.

"Mission?"

Awaki Musujime was a bit confused.

Screech~

The sound of braking came. A black car stopped near Su Xiao. The car door opened, and a man wearing a white windbreaker, yellow hair, and a tattoo on one cheek got out of the car.

"Is it here? Hmm, it should be right."

The man looked at Su Xiao and Awaki Musujime. Sensing the man's gaze, Awaki Musujime turned her head, seemingly very disgusted with this man.

Through the information in the original work, Su Xiao recognized who the other party was. The man's name was Kihara Amata, the leader of the Hound Dogs, Aleister's direct subordinate. His personality was brutal, but he possessed a genius brain. The superpower of the strongest ability user, Accelerator, was assisted in development by him. He possessed all the data of Accelerator and developed a method to restrain Accelerator's ability.

"This is the data. As for how to do it, do whatever you want."

Kihara Amata threw a piece of data. Su Xiao caught the data and didn't look at the data in his hand, but looked through the car window into the car.

In the back seat of the car sat a tea-haired girl wearing military goggles. Seeing the girl's appearance, Su Xiao thought of one person, Level 5 ability user, Misaka Mikoto.

Of course, the girl in the car was not Misaka Mikoto herself, but a clone of the other party.

Kihara Amata didn't say much and got in the car to leave, seemingly having urgent matters.

Looking at the departing car, Su Xiao showed a thoughtful look. He roughly inferred the current time point.

Opening the data in his hand, the content of the data was very simple. A girl with an extremely special identity was being hunted and fled into Academy City. Her name was Index, and the specific information was not explained in the data.

The content on the data was only that Index fled into Academy City, and then 'accidentally met' a boy named Kamijou Touma, and the two became friends.

Kamijou Touma was the protagonist of this world. Whether he was a child of the plane was subject to assessment.

After that, a magician appeared in Academy City and fought with Kamijou Touma. Although Kamijou Touma was ability-less, he had a kind of ability that could be called invincible, named Imagine Breaker. Any superpower or magic that his right hand touched would become invalid and eliminated. In principle, it was to eliminate all 'heterodox powers'. This happened last night...

Kamijou Touma defeated that magician with Imagine Breaker. However, the magician had a companion, and that companion was not something Kamijou Touma could deal with...

According to the data in Su Xiao's hand, Kamijou Touma had already encountered that magician's companion tonight, and they were currently in a standoff or battle. Su Xiao's mission was to repel or kill that magician's companion.

"Really treating me as a coolie. Let's go, bandage-chest girl."

Su Xiao walked into an alley. Hearing this address, Awaki Musujime's mouth twitched.

"I'm preventing female features from hindering the battle! Shaking when running, if it weren't for being too ugly after removal, I would have removed them long ago."

Awaki Musujime followed, although she hated it to the bone in her heart, she was helpless. ===== CHAPTER 873 =====
