Chapter 882: Without Alarm, Without Danger
During the previous “pre-war meeting,” Kamijou Touma heard someone from Amakusa-style mention that Orsola Church would become the stronghold of Agnese Forces.
That’s why Kamijou Touma confidently led Lin Wuming straight to this place. However, he didn’t expect Stiyl and the Amakusa-style people not to be nearby!
Kamijou Touma had originally thought they were near the church and would immediately appear to meet up after seeing him and Lin Wuming arrive… but he found no trace of anyone else!
Lin Wuming knew from the start that this church would be the location for the final “decisive battle” of this incident, so he didn’t feel there was any problem with the path Kamijou Touma pointed out.
As for now, with the two of them deep in enemy territory and surrounded… Lin Wuming didn’t care.
“Sister Orsola is still alive, but she’s badly beaten,” Lin Wuming said. “Later, you take her and leave first. Go straight to the Hospital for treatment.”
“Huh? What about you, Wuming?” Kamijou Touma clenched his fists, preparing for battle. “And it looks like these Sister Agnese don’t intend to let us leave easily…”
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Lin Wuming calmly surveyed the surrounding sisters. “I told you, I’ll handle this.”
“As expected of a Level 5, truly reliable,” Kamijou Touma said. “I suddenly feel confident. How do you need me to cooperate later?”
“Cooperate?” Lin Wuming turned to look at him. “Just protect yourself, manage your right hand, and don’t let it get close to me.”
…Kamijou Touma froze. From his words, Lin Wuming was preparing to take on all the enemies by himself!
Perhaps impatient from waiting, or enraged by Lin Wuming’s attitude and words, the sisters suddenly launched a fierce attack.
They raised various kinds of spiritual artifacts in their hands and aimed their magic at Lin Wuming and Kamijou Touma.
The next instant, colorful magic, like laser beams from old sci-fi movies, shot towards Lin Wuming.
“Watch out!” Kamijou Touma shouted, taking the lead by swinging his right hand forward.
It must be admitted that Kamijou Touma indeed possessed a certain “combat instinct”—or perhaps “precognition.” His seemingly random sweep of his hand actually knocked away five magic attacks in front of him, allowing him to carve out a safe zone from a desperate “hail of bullets.”
He even accounted for Lin Wuming—two of those magic attacks were originally aimed at Lin Wuming!
Immediately after, Kamijou Touma lunged forward, executing a standard roll to evade the subsequent series of attacks.
—Although it was magic, such straightforward attack patterns were quite predictable.
Kamijou Touma breathed a slight sigh of relief. For him, the threat level of such attacks was even lower—compared to when he used to brawl with gang members on the streets.
At least his Imagine Breaker could nullify magic attacks, but it couldn’t deflect bricks thrown by delinquents…
“Oh no, Wuming!” Kamijou Touma suddenly remembered that he wasn’t acting alone; there was Lin Wuming, who had difficulty moving, behind him!
—Although he was a Level 5, facing so many magic attacks suddenly, Lin Wuming…
He was completely unharmed!
Lin Wuming remained in place, his wheelchair not moving an inch.
The crisp sound of shattering glass was incessant—Kamijou Touma noticed that around Lin Wuming, something seemed to be breaking, continuously.
He had initially thought it was the sound of glass breaking in the church, but now it seemed…
“Mind Power Barrier…” Kamijou Touma stated the essence of those shattered things.
One of Lin Wuming’s standard abilities—Mind Power Barrier.
It was a signature ability familiar to those who knew him… no, one could say, familiar to anyone who knew the name Lin Wuming.
Together with Mind Power Acceleration Cannon, it was hailed as “the ultimate in offense and defense.”
Of course, these were just jokes concocted by busybodies; Lin Wuming himself never acknowledged such a claim.
It should be known that in the first half of this year, Incomplete Telekinesis Lin Wuming and Telekinetic Cannonball Sogiita Gunha would regularly engage in duels for “the strongest Telekinetic User.”
It was through this channel that information about their strength and common techniques became semi-public “common knowledge.”
This continuous sound of shattering glass was the iconic phenomenon of Lin Wuming’s Mind Power Barrier.
Accompanied by the crisp sound, the formidable performance of Mind Power Barrier was once again confirmed.
Even during his duels with Sogiita Gunha, Lin Wuming’s Mind Power Barrier was rarely directly broken.
And now, it seemed that Lin Wuming’s “strongest shield” could effectively block even magic attacks.
The Agnese Forces’ attack was dense but brief; after a round of rapid bombardment, silence returned.
This was their habit, or rather, their combat rhythm; after such a saturated bombardment, they always paused to prepare for the next wave of attacks and wait for the battlefield smoke to clear…
But they didn’t expect that this round of bombardment didn’t stir up any dust—because almost all the magic attacks “vanished into thin air”!
Five of the magic attacks were erased by Imagine Breaker; as for the many others, they were completely consumed by the endless Mind Power Barrier while attacking Lin Wuming…
For a moment, the scene was eerily silent.
The sisters, who had habitually stopped attacking to prepare for the next assault, looked at the two unharmed intruders in surprise.
“Don’t stop, keep attacking!” Sister Agnese immediately reacted and commanded loudly.
“Take care of yourself, don’t worry about me!” Lin Wuming also told Kamijou Touma.
After the previous probing, Lin Wuming already had a good idea—the enemy’s attacks couldn’t harm him!
In Lin Wuming’s perception, these “magic attacks” were, in the end, a form of “impact destruction,” and the actual effect manifested was physical damage.
Since that was the case, his Mind Power Barrier was precisely the right countermeasure!
Furthermore, the power of these sisters’ attacks was very limited. Lin Wuming didn’t even need the Bullet Time state; simply deploying overlapping Mind Power Barriers was enough to handle the current situation.
A new wave of attacks from the Agnese Forces came again, and Lin Wuming re-verified his previous speculation, then found it utterly uninteresting.
—Enemies of this level, no matter how numerous, were meaningless…
Lin Wuming felt he could increasingly understand Accelerator’s feelings.
“Let’s end this farce quickly and go back…” Lin Wuming made his decision and maneuvered his wheelchair to move.
