Chapter 185: Six

That snake is a real bitch!

That was the conclusion that Nie Yiyi arrived at as soon as they entered the fray.

By the time they rushed into the theater, the battle had already begun, and not long after their arrival, Medusa's petrification attack swept through the entire theater. Her teammates had already received some type of signal in advance, so they were able to avoid the attack, but Adam and his teammates were struck head-on by the waves of petrifying energy.

Thankfully, Adam was able to shield everyone with his own body just in the nick of time, but the King Arthur's shoulder and the tail of his dragon steed were still caught by the energy waves.

Only after withstanding the petrification attack did Adam come to realize just how fearsome an ability it was.

The entirety of his back was turned to stone, and it was only thanks to Mummy's tremendous physical resistance that he wasn't killed on the spot.

Even so, this was still the most amount of damage that Mummy had sustained from a single attack since it became a level three anomaly.

Its bandages had been turned to stone, as had the skin and flesh on its back. As soon as Adam tried to move, his back immediately fell away like dry plaster, revealing his spinal column and shoulder blades.

As expected of a top-level S tier combatant...

Even Oni no Hanzou had struggled to match this level of offensive output.

During Adam's match against Oni no Hanzou, he had only been wounded so severely after taking many attacks from Oni no Hanzou's katana.

"Avoid getting struck by her petrification attack at all costs!" Adam warned.

He was able to withstand the attack, but he had very little confidence that his teammates would've also been able to do the same.

"These tables and chairs can all ward off her petrification ability."

King Arthur had previously faced Medusa in the arena, so he was familiar with all of her offensive abilities.



He was just about to disassemble the tables ahead of them to form a fortress, but at this point, the mecha had already flown up into the sky. Adam was struck by a sense of foreboding, and he hurriedly urged his teammates to exit the theater.

Sure enough, they had only just rushed out of the theater before an energy blast exploded inside.

Adam had previously witnessed the power of the giant mecha, but he had never experienced it for himself. Not only was the energy blast able to blow up the entire theater, the resulting shockwaves were so powerful that everyone was sent flying.

During battles of this caliber, the role that Nie Yiyi could play was extremely limited. If she weren't constantly under Adam's protection, she would've already died twice at this point.

"Are you alright?"

Adam clambered up from the rubble on the street before looking down at Nie Yiyi, who he had just shielded once again with his body.

"I'm fine. You shielded me from most of the impact, so I only broke some ribs." Nie Yiyi was very annoyed by the fact that she was such a liability on the battlefield. "Don't worry about me. The bandages on your back are already gone, so we won't be able to fuse together anymore. I'll stay away from the main battlefield and see if I can pick off some of the weaker enemies."

Adam nodded in response, accepting this arrangement.

Nie Yiyi didn't linger any longer and vanished on the spot as a gust of wind.

Adam turned back to the main battlefield, and he was certain that such a massive commotion would've already alerted all of the artificial adapters lurking in the supply point.

Adam had no idea just how powerful the artificial anomalies had become under the enhancements provided by the adapter, so as a safety precaution, he chose to remain on the spot rather than rushing in recklessly.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the first anomaly to appear. While the giant mecha was still blasting away with its weapons, a bat anomaly suddenly appeared in the sky. It wasn't particularly large, but was extremely fast, and with a flash of red light, a module was severed from the giant mecha.

"What the hell is that?"

After claiming aerial supremacy, the mecha had gained somewhat of an upper hand against Medusa, but the arrival of the bat anomaly immediately forced the four mecha brothers to switch targets.

"We have to get rid of this thing first. Its attacks are too strong. If we ignore it, we'll get taken apart in no time!"

The bat anomaly wasn't the only one that had been attracted to the scene.

By the time Adam rushed back to the edge of the rubble, two exceptionally fast terrestrial anomalies had already arrived, and there were still more to come.

The first two anomalies to arrive possessed bodies that were as thin and wiry as stick insects, and they were extraordinarily fast. The anomalies behind them were slower, but the slower they were, the more massive they were. The final one resembled a truck, with a layer of sticky substance over its musclebound body. It was clear just from a single glance that this was an anomaly that possessed exceptional strength and defenses.

"How do we do this?"

As soon as Adam arrived, Medusa immediately slithered over to him.

"There are a total of six artificial anomalies in this supply point. According to my past experience, there's definitely no way that a single team would be able to beat so many anomalies!"

"Don't these artificial anomalies fight each other as well?"

"They do before the director arrives, but not after. Why are there so many of them? In the past editions of the battle royale, there would've only been three or four anomalies in a supply point of this size." Medusa was beginning to regret her decision. "Even with our two teams combined, it'll be very difficult to take on so many anomalies at once."

"Are they that strong?"

"They're extremely strong!"

As soon as Medusa's voice trailed off, the mountainous anomaly at the very rear of the pack picked up an old car from the side of the street before hurling it through the air.

With its enormous strength, it was able to launch the car with the speed of a cannonball.

All laws of physics in the psychic world matched those of the real world, so that car had to have weighed at least one or two tons. However, it had been thrown like a pebble by the hulking anomaly, and it struck the giant mecha, knocking it straight out of the sky.

The four mecha brothers were already having a great deal of trouble warding off the bat anomaly's attacks, and they were completely caught off guard by the flying car. To compound their woes even further, after falling out of the sky, they landed right in between the six anomalies.

"Fuck, it looks like this might be the end of the road."

Six enhanced artificial anomalies were equivalent to six S tier combatants, and that was far too much for the four mecha brothers to deal with.

"This is bullshit! We attracted all of the anomalies just because we're the biggest target!"

"This is way too unfair!" n0VelUSb.c0M

It was indeed unfair.

Even after being enhanced, the anomalies still possessed no intelligence. They were like wild beasts that were governed only by their most primal killing instincts. The mecha was the one that had caused all of those explosions, and it was far bigger than everyone else, so it immediately attracted the attention of all of the anomalies. The anomalies hadn't actively chosen to gang up on it. Instead, they were merely acting on instinct.

"Fuck it, there's no going back now!"

The four mecha brothers were no cowards, and they only allowed themselves to wallow in frustration and despair for a moment before focusing their efforts on making one final stand.

The giant mecha began firing all of its weapons as quickly as it could as the four mecha brothers retaliated like a pack of cornered beasts.

They were fighting for their lives, so they weren't considering their psychic power expenditure at all. All they wanted was to create an opening for themselves to escape through.

The four mecha brothers hadn't given up hope. They used their firepower to force back the anomalies, then blasted off at full speed in the direction where the encirclement of anomalies was at its most vulnerable.
