Chapter 562: Really Accurate in Judging People
"The coins onee-sama uses are usually game coins, which are made of different materials than the coins here, so it's difficult to achieve the same effect. Beep~ Misaka emphasized this."
"Academy City's game coin... I do have one, which I won by chance in a lottery, but it's a consumable item, it's gone once it's used up." Zhang Da also took out a game coin, bounced it up and caught it, bounced it up and caught it again.
Misaka Mikoto's railgun is very fast, and low-quality game coins will melt due to , so the effective range is only about 50 meters.
Each game coin can only be used once.
Misaka's eyes followed the coin up and down without saying a word.
Zhang Da also noticed Misaka's gaze, and with his right hand, he clasped the coin on the back of his left hand and said with a smile: "If you want it, I'll give it to you if you guess the heads or tails correctly."
"It's a deal." Although Misaka's tone did not fluctuate much, she was obviously anxious because she didn't even bother to talk about her habit of speaking.
Moreover, after getting Zhang Daye's affirmation, she did not guess the pros and cons immediately, but picked up a branch and wrote lines of meaningless formulas on the ground.
Judging from her appearance, she must have been constantly calculating in her mind while writing the formulas, and these formulas on the ground should just be used for auxiliary recording.
"...You're not planning to figure are you?"
"Although there is some uncertainty, there are still many factors that can be calculated. Even from the perspective of probability theory alone, the probability of a coin landing heads or tails is not a simple 50%. In order to maximize her chances of winning, Misaka must perform as many calculations as possible."
Zhang Da was also confused: "No, it's just a coin guessing game, there's no need for such a big fuss, right?"
Misaka didn't say anything, she just sped up the calculations, but perhaps there were more factors affecting the results. White steam was faintly coming out of Misaka's head, and her brain was about to overclock.
"Stop, stop, stop! You win!" Zhang Da was also shocked. "I admit defeat, the coin is yours!"
After receiving the coin, Misaka dropped the branch and showed a similar expression as when she held the Quata badge: "Fufu... the same coin as onee-sama."
Zhang Da was also puzzled. "I never saw you do such a large amount of calculations when you were practicing your electric shock ability. Is the coin problem that complicated?"
"The formulas used by espers when performing various moves often ignore factors with lesser influence to reduce the amount of calculations required, so the effects of the moves often have errors."
"For example, onee-sama's railgun has a target deviation of approximately 18.9mm. Generally speaking, as long as it's within an acceptable range, we won't deliberately calculate unnecessary factors. Beep~ Misaka made the necessary explanations."
In other words, in order to increase the probability of guessing correctly even a little bit, Misaka is trying to add as many influencing factors as possible, so the amount of calculation naturally increases a lot.
"It seems you really want this coin, but this way it won't be useful for experiments." Zhang Da thought about it and said, "How about you try making a cannonball out of something else? Maybe it can go farther?"
"Using this coin to fire a railgun is currently the most mature solution. Using other materials might extend the range, but the initial velocity would also be reduced. "Beep~" Misaka explained.
"Let's weigh the pros and cons. We can try different materials and develop shells with a longer range. It doesn't matter if the power is slightly reduced. We can also research shells with a shorter range but greater power."
Zhang Da also dug out a large pile of materials, including coins and bullets from this world, as well as various pistol and rifle bullets from other worlds.
"Oh, right, the Thunder Fruit also has a move called Thunder Metallurgy, which uses electricity to generate heat, thereby changing the form of metal."
This trick is actually a bit ridiculous. Enel can actually control the shape of liquid metal at will, and it takes almost no time for the liquid metal to cool and take shape.
Anyway, the question is about the ability of the fruit, and a plausible scientific basis will be enough.
Misaka thought about it and accepted Zhang Tatsuya's suggestion. It just so happened that she also wanted to practice a technique to control iron sand with the help of electromagnetic force, and maybe she could try to smelt the iron sand later.
Vivi's way of practicing her ability is much simpler. She is using her ability to detect groundwater next to the vegetable field, preparing to help the baboons dig a well.
This way, the baboons no longer have to go to the forest river to fetch water when they want to water the fields. At the same time, it allows her to practice one of her most important professional skills, killing two birds with one stone.
Xia Lulu and Perona fought against the baboons in a very ordinary way. They both lacked practical experience.
It was fine at the beginning, but in the past two days, relying solely on physical skills to deal with the baboons has become a bit powerless.
In addition to using kicking skills, Xia Lulu now wishes she could turn her hands back into cat claws to scratch them, but she obviously can't do it, so she often spreads her wings and flies into the air when she is overwhelmed.
Perona is in a similar situation. She is now working hard to practice Storm Kicks so that she can exert stronger long-range attack power in the air.
It didn't matter that they flew away. The baboons were so anxious that they started trying hard to learn the moon walk. Unfortunately, this skill was not so easy to imitate successfully.
Uncle Long's situation is much better than theirs. No matter how many tricks the baboons know, they can't do anything to him. As long as there is not too big a gap in strength and speed, Uncle Long can basically deal with them.
Even if the baboons learn more tricks, it is difficult to change the status quo, because Uncle Long is different from Ah Fu. He does not rely on tricks to make a living. His forte is to be able to adapt to circumstances.
…
Everyone stayed in Hawkeye's house for more than ten days. During this time, a group of pirates came to the island and wanted to enter the castle to take a look, but they failed to successfully pass through the woods and were all taken care of by the baboons.
When the pirate captain saw a baboon using the Six Styles of Shave, he cursed: "Damn the navy, how despicable! They actually train animals as secret weapons!"
Then he was knocked down. Being able to recognize Shaving doesn't mean he has a way to deal with it. In the first half of the Grand Line, knowing Shaving can deal with at least half of the pirates.
After the baboons brought the people over, Shark Chili stepped forward to identify them: "It's a small pirate group with little reputation. The total bounty is only over 20 million."
"Can I get this far with a bounty of over 20 million?" Zhang Da was also puzzled for a moment, then he remembered that this was not a route he was familiar with, and the situation was uncertain. "That's right, luck is also very important."
"Damn it, look at you..." the captain cursed angrily. He originally wanted to say "Who are you looking down on?", but after seeing the people in front of him clearly, sweat began to form on his forehead, and he quickly changed his words with a smile on his face.
"Look, look... you're really good at judging people! We're here just by luck. Um... could you please... could you please let me go?"
