Chapter 159: Raven
As Adam was pondering the situation while chipping away at the psychic barrier, two anomalies gradually emerged from the rubble.
The first one was the alien anomaly, the perpetrator behind the explosion.
It was a strange humanoid anomaly with tentacles growing all over its body, all of which were squirming incessantly like parasites. It was the one that had created the explosion, but it appeared to be completely unscathed, and it seemed that it possessed certain attributes that granted it extreme resistance to explosions.
The other surviving anomaly was the chef anomaly. Its physical resistance was inferior to Adam's, but its regenerative abilities were outstanding, thereby making it extremely difficult to kill.
Even after being blown up into pieces, its head and skeleton still remained, and as it munched away at the pieces of its own charred remained, its body was slowly regenerating.
If there are only two enemy anomalies left, then I hold the upper hand.
Prior to the explosion, Adam and Fighter Li had been at a disadvantage.
Adam was struggling to contend with four anomalies at once, and Fighter Li was only able to rely on his superior technique and agility to stall for time against his three opponents. Had he been caught off guard even by a single attack, then he would've been instantly doomed.
If Li had perished, then there was no chance that Adam would've been able to defeat seven anomalies at once.
However, the situation was completely different not. In the wake of that super explosion, the tables had been completely turned.
Li no longer had the ability to continue fighting, but the enemy camp had lost a total of five combatants, thereby suddenly giving Adam the advantage. However, he had no intention of re-entering the fray. Instead, he was trying to break through the psychic boundaries as quickly as possible while his opponents were also recovering.
In his mind, the psychic boundaries would've been quite easy to destroy.
Back when he was trapped in the psychic world by that psychic mutant, he and Hook had been able to break through the psychic boundaries in quite a short time.
That psychic mutant had come prepared, and there were many other powerful psychic mutants on his side as well, so the psychic boundaries they had established had to have been quite sturdy.
In contrast, Sithu was only a non-adapter who suffered from schizophrenia, so surely the psychic boundaries in his psychic world wouldn't have posed much resistance at all.
However, that proved not to be the case. Adam had already dug through several layers of psychic boundaries, but he still wasn't able to open up a pathway back to the real world.
How is this possible?
Meanwhile, the alien anomaly was in no hurry to attack, and the chef anomaly had finally devoured enough meat to reassemble its own body.
In this reassembled form, it was clear that not all of its flesh had come from its original body. It had devoured too much beef in its efforts to restore itself, and as a result, it had become even larger and more bloated. It was like a monster that had been stitched together using haphazard chunks of flesh, and as soon as it made a recovery, it immediately charged at Adam with its cleaver raised.
Even as the chef anomaly was charging at him, Adam didn't stop what he was doing. Instead, he turned his gaze to the alien anomaly. As long as that thing didn't move, he wasn't going to do anything, either.
The chef anomaly was nothing more than a tank, and as a fellow level three anomaly, Adam didn't have to fear it at all.
In addition to that, he had allies on his side.
Right as the chef anomaly was about to get close, Adam invoked Distortion, which he had withheld from the battle this entire time. Given how erratic and uncontrollable Distortion was, releasing it too early would've only made the battlefield even more chaotic, and it was certainly a possibility that it could've targeted Fighter Li.
However, there was barely anyone left on this battlefield at the moment, and most of his anomalies had been injured in the explosion, so this was the perfect opportunity for Distortion to shine.
As soon as Distortion appeared, it immediately pounced onto the chef anomaly, exerting immense distortive force onto its reassembled body. As a result, its flesh was bound up like a grotesque pretzel, making its appearance even more unsettling to behold.
At this moment, the chef anomaly resembled a mountain of flesh that had been bound by countless rubber bands, causing its entire body to bulge and indent in an uneven fashion.
Of course, Distortion alone wasn't going to be enough to take down the chef anomaly.
While the chef anomaly was bound by Distortion, Adam instructed Camera to attack the chef anomaly as well, and it was quickly forced onto the back foot.
Large chunks of its body were being sliced off, and with each chunk that fell away, it was losing upwards of 50 kilograms of weight.
"Attack its head!" Adam instructed while continuing to chip away at the psychic boundaries.
The chef anomaly's powerful regenerative abilities stemmed from its intake of flesh, so as long as it was able to eat, and there was meat available for it to consume, it was essentially unkillable.
After receiving that instruction, Camera shifted its attention to the chef anomaly's head, but in response, the chef anomaly shrank its head into its abdominal cavity so that it was enveloped by countless chunks of flesh.
At the same time, it was opposing Camera's scythe arms with its cleaver, and an intense battle ensued.
Camera's attacks were extremely fast, and it was able to cleave off large chunks of the chef anomaly's flesh with each strike that it landed, but due to its pitiful defenses, it didn't dare to get too close for fear of being killed by a single attack.
Thus, the battle became a contest of attrition, and neither side was able to gain the upper hand.
During this time, Adam's attention remained focused on the other anomaly. As long as it didn't strike, he was also going to refrain from doing anything.
Time slowly passed by, and the psychic boundaries were gradually being chipped away, as was the chef anomaly's body. It seemed that everything was progressing in a positive direction.
Five minutes later, Camera was finally able to slice away all of the chef anomaly's flesh with Distortion's help, then severed its head with a swipe of its scythe arm.
After that, it unleashed several more attacks in succession to slice the head into pieces.
With that, the chef anomaly perished, disintegrating into a vast cloud of anomalic power.
Part of the anomalic power was devoured by Camera and Distortion, but once again, the majority of it was sucked away by the mysterious vortex.
Without any anomalic power lingering in the area to keep it distracted, Distortion immediately tried to pounce onto Camera. Adam knew that this was going to happen, and he hurriedly withdrew Camera into his body.
Having lost its target, Distortion turned to the alien anomaly in the distance instead. Adam was just about to stop it, but at the same time, he was rather curious about what was going to happen.
In a turn of events that was rather inexplicable, but also not unexpected to Adam, the alien anomaly didn't retaliate at all as it was being attacked by Distortion. Instead, it was welcoming Distortion's attacks as if it had a death wish.
Its joints were bent the wrong way, its neck was elongated before being snapped...
It was a level three anomaly, yet it was working with Distortion to sabotage itself, and it didn't take long before its entire body was scrunched up into a ball of mangled flesh, putting an end to its life on the spot.
What is going on?
Even following its demise, the tentacles on the alien anomaly's body were still writhing and squirming. The anomalic-power-sucking vortex had already reappeared, but it was as if the alien anomaly wasn't completely dead.
Could it be that those tentacles really are parasites?
While Adam was perplexed by the situation, a dense blanket of dark clouds suddenly began to gather in the sky before absorbing everything in the surrounding area.
Sithu's psychic world was originally incredibly dark, sticky, and bloody, but all of the unpleasant elements in the environment were sucked away by the dark clouds in the sky alongside all of the negative emotions in the psychic world. As a result, the sky was made to resemble a swamp that was churning and squirming incessantly.
In the end, it transformed into a massive six-eyed raven.
For some reason, as the raven opened its eyes and turned to Adam, it expressed its gratitude to him.
"Thank you for getting rid of all of those pesky pieces of trash for me. As thanks, I'm going to give you some compensation."
The raven released a cloud of black mist out of its beak as it spoke, and it was a cloud of extremely pure anomalic power.
