Chapter 179: Fusing With Nie Yiyi
Their plan had been executed to perfection.
They had used the anomaly to keep King Arthur occupied, and the psychic puppeteer was using his psychic disruption to temporarily keep Adam out of the action. Under normal circumstances, those consecutive explosions would've been sufficient to kill Nie Yiyi.
Having had so much time to prepare, the attacks unleashed by Goblin were equivalent in power to S tier attacks.
However, the shield card from earlier had played a pivotal role here.
"Looks like these resources really are useful."
Nie Yiyi slowly descended from the dense smoke left behind by the explosion, and she wasn't completely unscathed, but she was largely unharmed. The only injuries that she had sustained had been from the first round of explosions, and all they did was slightly disfigure her.
The shield card was known as the director's white cyberhex, and after it was found, it was given to Nie Yiyi. She was someone who liked to fight at close quarters, but her defenses were quite lackluster, so the shield card was perfect for her, and it really did save her life here.
There really is danger at every turn in this battle royale.
With that in mind, Adam didn't dare to withhold Clown any longer and immediately invoked it. Holding his cards to his chest was not an option at a time like this.
All of the people who were willing and able to participate in the battle royale had extreme confidence in themselves. Not only had all of the S tier combatants displayed incredible power, the A tier combatants that Adam had encountered had also given him a massive shock.
Some A tier combatants weren't particularly powerful individually, but when grouped together, some of them were no less powerful and troublesome to deal with than S tier combatants.
As soon as Clown was released, it immediately began to cackle in a deranged manner.
Perhaps it was due to Raven's influence, or because it was an anomaly of too high a level, much like Distortion, Clown couldn't be controlled by Adam.
If he wanted to completely control it, then he had to fuse as one with it, but doing so would allow Raven to exert its influence on his psychic body.
Hence, Adam hadn't invoked this anomaly up to this point, but he had no choice but to do so now.
Sure enough, after being released, Clown had no intention of putting in any work. After cackling like a madman for a while, it suddenly jumped onto the back of King Arthur's dragon steed and began to play with its revolver.
"Go and kill that anomaly!"
Adam attempted to issue an instruction to Clown, but it completely ignored him and continued to play with its revolver, displaying no intention to act.
"That's the really powerful S tier combatant you were talking about?" Goblin's team was still hiding in the shadows, and his teammates immediately burst into laughter upon seeing this. "He's an invocator who can't even control his own invoked entities! Does he have schizophrenia, or does he have so much self-doubt that it's affecting his powers? I can't think of any other reason why an invocator would be unable to control their own invoked entity."
After mocking Adam for a while, the psychic puppeteer suddenly decided to instruct the artificial anomaly to disengage itself from its battle against King Arthur and attack Clown instead.
The artificial anomaly was extremely fast, while Clown was still seemingly preoccupied with its own revolver.
However, right as the anomaly's claws were able to reach its face, the revolver in Clown's hand abruptly vanished. In the next instant, the revolver appeared on the anomaly's head, and a string of gunshots rang out in rapid succession. The impact of the bullets was so powerful that the anomaly's giant body was sent flying back through the air.
Adam thought that Clown would press its advantage, but after forcing back the artificial anomaly, it returned to sitting idly on the back of King Arthur's dragon steed again.
The bastard's trying to force me to fuse with it!
Adam could tell what Clown's intentions were. The vast majority of its power came from Raven, and its body was riddled with parasitic tentacles. It was acting completely according to Raven's will, and it was forcing Adam to fuse as one with it so that it could continue to erode Adam's mind.
However, at the same time, it wasn't actively attacking any of Adam's allies, and perhaps that was because Adam still had some slight control over it.
This type of passive-aggressive attitude was posing a massive headache to Adam.
I'll see if we can win without Clown's help first. If we can't, then I'll do what needs to be done.
The more Raven wanted to force him to fuse with Clown, the more resistant Adam was to the idea. At this moment, he had already rushed over to Nie Yiyi to implement a new strategy.
"Let's fuse together!"
"What?"
Nie Yiyi was completely caught off guard by this proposal.
"I'm talking about like we trained!"
Adam opened up his bandages as he spoke, and Nie Yiyi also quickly realized what he was referring to. She immediately pressed herself tightly against his back, allowing his bandages to wrap themselves around her body, leaving only her joints and eyes exposed so that she could see and move.
This was a strategy that Adam had thought of a few days ago, and it had been quite effective in their battle simulations.
In his regular form, Adam's offensive prowess was far inferior to his defensive abilities, while Nie Yiyi was the exact opposite. Thus, the two of them complemented each other perfectly, so it only made sense for them to combine their powers like this. Furthermore, with two heads and four arms, their offensive coverage was also improved.
After wrapping up Nie Yiyi, Adam rushed toward the artificial anomaly that had just been sent flying by Clown's bullets. However, he had only taken a few steps when he trod on a landmine, and the ground exploded violently beneath his feet.
However, Adam's physical resistance allowed him to completely ignore the goblin landmines. His body was propelled up into the air by the explosion, and he was shielding Nie Yiyi from the shockwaves and metal shrapnel with his body.
The shockwaves barely posed any threat to him, and the flying pieces of metal shrapnel were only able to raise trails of sparks as they slashed over his bandages.
With Adam acting as her meat shield, Nie Yiyi remained completely unscathed.
After landing back on the ground, Adam continued to pursue the artificial anomaly without pause.
At this point, the anomaly had already steadied itself, and it instinctively attacked, lashing out at Adam's abdomen with its claws, but once again, the attack was only able to raise a flurry of sparks.
After withstanding that first attack, Adam retaliated with two punches of his own, but they were also rather ineffective.
All of a sudden, Adam suddenly sprang up into the air while turning around, allowing Nie Yiyi to unleash the attack that she had already been charging up for quite some time. Her blade slashed across the artificial anomaly's body, leaving a massive gash that was over a meter in length.
Nie Yiyi's normal attacks weren't all that powerful, but when she had time to charge up her attacks, it was a completely different story.
If given the time to charge up her attacks to their maximal extent, her offensive prowess far exceeded even that of King Arthur. Adam had already witnessed the full extent of her power during their first mission together. At the time, the scarecrow anomaly that they had encountered had been at least a level four anomaly, yet she had managed to severely wound it with just a single all-out attack. At the time, Adam had merely been impressed, but as he grew progressively more powerful, he came to realize just how fearsome that attack had been. n0veLusb.c0M
.
Back then, Nie Yiyi still wasn't as powerful as she was now. At this point, her overall powers had perhaps only just reached the pinnacle of what could be expected from level two anomalies, stopping just short of the level three standard as her defenses were simply too frail and dragged down her overall score.
With powers comparable to only a level two anomaly, she had almost managed to kill a level four anomaly, punching up two whole levels!
Hence, Adam was very confident in Nie Yiyi's offensive firepower. As long as he could shield her and give her sufficient time to charge up her attacks, it certainly wasn't impossible to dig themselves out of this predicament.
"Charge up another attack and kill it with the next one!" Adam roared as he turned back around, throwing his arms around the artificial anomaly while also invoking Distortion. With the two of them acting together, they were able to severely limit the anomaly's mobility.
