Chapter 164: Clones VS Clones
Right as Hailey was bawling her eyes out while all of the spectators around her were roaring with excitement, Nie Yiyi suddenly felt a tap on her shoulder.
"Jiang? What are you doing here?" Nie Yiyi was greeted by the sight of a familiar face as she turned around. "Aren't you supposed to be keeping an eye on Sithu?"
"The bastard escaped!"
"When?"
"I don't know. No one from outside of our group has been in the underground chamber, but when I went down there today, he was gone!"
"So be it, it doesn't matter. He's just a serial killer, not an adapter, he won't pose any threat. Just make sure to be on your guard," Nie Yiyi sighed in an absent-minded manner as she turned her attention back to the giant 3D projection in the stadium
"What's up? Is he about to get killed?"
Jiang Junior also turned his attention to the projection, and as soon as his voice trailed off, countless oni-armed clones converged around the defenseless and severely injured Adam before hacking at him viciously with their katanas.
Mummy's forte had always been its defense, but with the increased offensive firepower granted by the arm of Aka Oni, the shadow clones were still able to pierce their katanas into its body.
Thus, Adam was quickly hacked into pieces, but no one was able to see the process taking place as he had already been completely inundated by all of the shadow clones that had surrounded him.
"Is that it?" Jiang Junior wasn't very interested in the match. "Is that mummy Adam?"
"Can you shut up?" Jiang Junior was really starting to get on Hailey's nerves. "You're really annoying, you know that? I hate people who don't know when to shut up!"
"Who the hell are you? It's little girls like you who should learn when to keep their mouths shut!"
"Women hate men like you who can't shut the hell up!"
"I never asked you to like me! Besides, I barely know that kid, you can't expect me to care about him like you do!"
"When I say women hate men like you, I mean all women!"
Hailey was getting so agitated that she was jumping up and down on the spot, and Jiang Junior was just about to rebuke her again when he caught a glimpse of Nie Yiyi's despairing face out of the corners of his eyes, which finally convinced him to remain quiet.
He didn't care about Adam, nor did he care about what others thought of him, but he didn't care about Nie Yiyi's impression of him.
"Fine, fine, I won't say anything... If he can't beat his opponent, then he'll just have to die. Tons of people die every day in Shadow City," Jiang Junior grumbled to himself in a low voice.
Indeed, death was not something to be mourned over in Shadow City.
Everyone witnessed countless deaths in Shadow City every single day. If they had to mourn for every dead person they saw, then they would have no time to do anything aside from mourn.
He wasn't saddened in the slightest by Adam's impending demise, but all of Adam's friends were feeling distraught.
Hailey was the one displaying the biggest reaction, while Shae was completely rooted to the spot.
Hook had always had a keen eye when it came to observing his surroundings, and he could sense that Shae seemed to have completely frozen up. He gently tugged on her arm and began to try and console her, which was an astonishing turn of events given how much they constantly bickered with one another.
"Don't get sucked into it, it's not worth it. You still have your own life to live. If you want to avenge him, you'll have to wait until you get stronger first."
Shae continued to stare at the projection in silence, and her face was being cast into light and shadow intermittently in accordance with the scene flashing before her.
All of a sudden, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Immediately thereafter, a resounding explosion rang out, and all of the shadow clones that were bunched together were instantly sent flying back by the violent explosion.
As it turned out, another combatant had appeared on the battlefield. To be more specific, it was another anomaly. n0veluSb.c0m
"He's still alive!"
"How is he still alive?"
"There's no way Mummy could've withstood attacks of that level!"
"You're right, but it seems like that's Clown in there instead of Mummy!"
Sure enough, standing at the very epicenter of the explosion was a giant clown.
In its current form, Clown had swelled to close to three meters in height, and the clown makeup on its face was sterner than before. Just as colorful as the makeup on its face was its striped clown costume, which struck the beholder with a sense of disorientation just from looking at it.
In contrast with the past Clown, which only had a dagger to play with, this iteration of Clown was juggling grenades while carrying a rocket launcher on its back. There were time bombs hanging all over its body, as well as old weapons and equipment from 100 years ago, such as a miniature submachine gun, making it appear as if it had gone back a century in time and robbed an arsenal.
The explosion just now seemed to have been triggered by one of the explosives hanging off its body.
"That's a really high-level anomaly!"
"It does look really strong. I recall that he had a clown anomaly, but it definitely wasn't this strong the last time I saw it." Shae and Nie Yiyi were beginning to discuss what they were seeing. "Could this thing have evolved from that anomaly?"
"It looks like it, and judging from its appearance, it seems to have evolved more than once."
It was often the case that the strength of an anomaly could be judged based on its outward appearance alone, and given Clown's current spectacular appearance, it was clear that it was definitely not a level two or level three anomaly.
However, under this grand appearance, there were some rather strange-looking tentacles growing on its body.
"Ohhh, I feel good..."
On the psychic battlefield, Clown was speaking in a sharp, inhuman voice, and it pulled out the miniature gatling gun strapped to its waist in a deranged manner as it spoke, then began to fire off rapid shots at the shadow clones in the distance.
All of the bullets struck either the clones or the snow on the ground, instantly blowing countless holes into the snow.
The bullets fired from the miniature gatling gun were so powerful that they were more like the projectiles of a heavy cannon. Each bullet that struck the ground would leave behind a crater that was half a meter wide, and all of the shadow clones that were struck by the bullets were instantly blown up into pieces.
"I'm starting to look like Cowboy, aren't I?"
After firing off an entire magazine of bullets, Clown blew away the smoke rising up out of the barrels of the miniature gatling gun, then erupted into a burst of high-pitched cackling.
"Is this your trump card?"
All of the shadow clones that were sent flying by the explosion clambered to their feet with wary expressions, then launched a new wave of attacks, with hundreds of shadow clones rushing at Adam from all directions.
The first unit of shadow clones leaped high up into the air before releasing their katanas.
In response, Clown instantly vanished into thin air.
However, when it came to concealment techniques, Oni no Hanzou was an expert, and the second unit of shadow clones immediately switched targets, launching their grappling hooks in a certain direction to drag the concealed Clown out of thin air. Immediately thereafter, the third unit of shadow clones arrived on the scene, using their katanas to slice Clown into pieces.
However, the pieces of Clown's body only transformed into more clowns, which transformed into more clowns themselves after they were also sliced into pieces.
As a result, the number of clowns on the battlefield was rapidly increasing, quickly approaching the number of shadow clones that they were up against.
All of the spectators immediately erupted loud cheers upon seeing this. They had purchased tickets to see a one-on-one battle, yet they were being treated to a spectacle of a battle between two small armies!
Each side had hundreds of units, and every single one of them was able to use weapons and some of their true bodies' abilities. All of a sudden, bullets and bombs were flying everywhere, while kunai knives and katanas flashed through the air.
These clones were so formidable that any one of them could easily kill the average A tier combatant.
Not only was the scene unfolding on the battlefield astonishing to all of the spectators, many of the A tier combatants who had come to watch the match were also greatly alarmed, including Oni no Miko.
