Chapter 903: Invitation
The soldiers and superpowered individuals pursuing Su Xiao retreated. Su Xiao walked towards the edge of Academy City, leaving two trails of bloody footprints.
Using his fingers, Su Xiao extracted a bullet from his shoulder. With his body's defense, the bullet hadn't penetrated deeply.
Su Xiao had just fought a fierce battle with Accelerator and now faced an onslaught from Academy City's forces. Although his Reflective Shield could easily block bullets, a large enough quantity would still pose a threat, especially considering the advanced weaponry developed in Academy City.
Tossing aside the bloodstained and slightly deformed bullet, Su Xiao walked straight to the checkpoint at the city's edge.
To Aleister, Su Xiao was a plague that needed to be removed immediately, ensuring he no longer lingered in Academy City.
This left Su Xiain in a bit of trouble. Who knew if he might return to the Index world in the future? Though unlikely, it wasn't impossible.
If he returned and had a main storyline task, he and Aleister might end up in a life-or-death struggle. Burning down District 2 created nearly irreconcilable enmity.
With his current strength, Su Xiao wasn't ready to challenge Aleister, and he knew it. Therefore, he wouldn't provoke Aleister but wouldn't surrender if attacked.
With his mana down to 153 points and health at 19%, with no recovery items left, it was best to leave the Index world quickly.
