I think Acer is talking about the effects of said event

Spoiler:

Vento's invasion is a pivot point due to the news of a different "esper technology" and the possibility of war reaching them...

Well, in the novels we saw that it was barely small talk for students that felt all too safe, but the dark side was in turmoil.

Although Mikoto is not part of the dark side, she is aware of it and the fact that AC is not as safe as other students wish to believe... And there's also Kuroko who is bound to feel an increase of incidents that judgement needs to tend to.

There are two potential lines there for nice side plots and I would be surprised if they were wasted... Of course, considering the pace, it will take a long while to reach that point.

Illusion = Destroyed

You know, now that I think about it, there's some heavy stuff going on under the bridge, such as what happened to the girl Accelerator rescued from a certain dealer.

Depending on how much darkness Kamachi wants in the Railgun manga, he could very well tease us with Saten or one of her friends getting abducted (level 0s are the ones at the highest risk after all)... Of course, Mikoto would rescue her before anything grave happened else she would go full psycho... which, like I said some time ago, is not her destiny.
