Chapter 354 - 354 354 Trouble Has Arrived

?Chapter 354: Chapter 354 Trouble Has Arrived Chapter 354: Chapter 354 Trouble Has Arrived “The Fantasy Master incident could indeed be regarded as a byproduct of the intensified contradiction between all the powerless individuals in Academy City and their unjust fate, exacerbated by the city’s stringent hierarchical system. The incident affected tens of thousands of ordinary students and nearly caused severe casualties, leaving many permanently bereft of the chance to awaken their superpowers. Although it seemed to stem from a deranged female teacher’s desperate plan to save her own students, the root cause was the city’s overly simplistic hierarchical system that pushed countless LVEVL0s onto the wrong path.”

“Regrettably, as much as we lament such incidents, we have neither the desire nor the power to change the ingrained hierarchical system of Academy City. Indeed, Pandora creatively suggested overthrowing Aresta and then ruling over this place to set her system, but honestly, I doubt how humane the military regulations established by Pandora could be…”
“Oh, I digressed.”

“What I mean to say is that the existence of a system inevitably has its reasons. The hierarchical system of Academy City might appear ruthless, but it is the most powerful guarantee a population of only 2.3 million can have against the colossal entirety of Magic Side. With that in mind, we don’t wish to change too much.”

“Moreover, what’s more important, due to the so-called ‘plot’s’ unreliability, whether the Fantasy Master incident will ultimately break out remains an unknown…”
“Bright sunlight streamed through the large windows into the room, filling it with a warm ambiance. The girl’s slightly nervous expression was reflected on the flawless porcelain teacup in front of her. Zuotian Tsuruya sat alone on the sofa, absentmindedly tormenting the now-empty teacup.”

“Today marked her first day as a ‘Power User’ participating in the superpower enhancement experiment. Although just a LEVEL0, she had prepared as best as she could beforehand, which really meant she had managed her mindset, as even her close friends couldn’t offer much help in this regard. After all, even Changpan Platform’s ‘Super Electromagnetic Cannon’ couldn’t predict what the procedure for a powerlessness research study should entail.”

“It was indeed a weird procedure—but as a powerless individual who had never collaborated with similar research efforts, Zuotian Tsuruya hadn’t noticed anything different about the experiment she had just undergone from the standard research procedures. She just did as instructed by the stern-looking ‘Director’—who was dressed in a white lab coat yet bore a military demeanor—lie inside a strange, egg-like pod, and relax as much as possible. If anything felt unusual to Zuotian Tsuruya, it was the cover of the pod, embedded with sparkling clear crystals. According to the researchers, these crystals could stimulate potential and effectively bolster one’s nervous system, yet the explanations were so complex that Zuotian fell asleep in less than three minutes.”

“I wonder what we’re supposed to do next…”
“Zuotian Tsuruya murmured to herself, feeling both nervous and a tad hopeful.”

“Coming out of the crystal-filled pod, the bustling researchers seemed to have made a significant discovery, gathering around a bizarre-looking machine, leaving her on her own. Zuotian could only peer briefly at it and marvel at how truly advanced the technology wielded by these research institutions was, not recognizing a single symbol used to represent the experimental results…”
“Then that stern man, respectfully addressed as ‘Director’ by the other researchers, asked her to wait in this lounge for the results. Throughout the process, Zuotian Tsuruya felt utterly befuddled.”

“It seems… nothing has changed…”

“With a touch of nervousness, the girl gently raised her hands, attempting to visualize herself using superpowers. Alas, apart from turning her face red, nothing happened.”

“Meanwhile, just a room away from where Zuotian Tsuruya was sitting, separated only by a wall, the ‘behind-the-scenes masterminds’ (please allow me to use this ambivalent phrase) were befuddled.”

“”No reaction?”

“Exactly, Your Majesty,” the expressionless Xyrin Technician reporting before us said. As a Xyrin Technician with not very high self-awareness about ranks, whether it be any experimental subject or result, it was all just part of research to him, so he didn’t exhibit any unnecessary emotions despite the unexpected situation, “The test subject underwent Nest Crystal Radiation, DNA decomposition and regeneration, spiritual power resonance calculations, and the false brain domain replacement recently developed by Lord Taville, but still, there has been no awakening of any superpower.”
