Chapter 276: The Second Head

The screech released a burst of soundwaves that were imbued with some type of strange, malicious energy, which sent Adam flying back through the air, only able to steady himself after he had crashed through a wall.

It seems to have become stronger.

As Adam clambered up from the ground, he saw the anomaly pick up the resurrected head before installing it onto its own body.

After the head was installed, a layer of black substance began to appear over its body, making it appear as if it had donned a suit of armor.

At this point, Shae had already been waiting on the sidelines for quite some time, and she sprang forward as flames erupted out of her sharp claws, which she slashed across the anomaly's body.

Sparks flew in all directions, and finally, the anomaly was beginning to live up to Adam's expectations, displaying remarkable defensive prowess that allowed it to remain completely unharmed in the face of Shae's attack.

It really has become stronger.

Clown's forte wasn't its offensive prowess. If it weren't using its clones, its offensive prowess wasn't superior by much compared with Shae in her current form. Hence, the fact that the spider anomaly was able to withstand Shae's attack without sustaining any damage indicated that Adam's attacks most likely weren't going to have much of an effect, either.

Even so, Adam still pulled out his gatling gun before opening fire.

The barrage of bullets formed a metallic wave that swept toward the spider anomaly, but the damage inflicted was virtually negligible.

It was as if the bullets had struck a block of steel, and the majority of them were repelled, while a small proportion of the bullets were able to embed themselves into the anomaly's body, but only to very limited effect.

Having absorbed that head, the anomaly's defensive prowess had received a significant boost. Adam's offensive prowess wasn't particularly remarkable, but that was only when compared with adapters of the same caliber. Ultimately, his powers were still on par with a level five anomaly's, and he hadn't encountered many opponents that were able to remain virtually completely unscathed in the face of an all-out barrage from his gatling gun.



Even the likes of Eyeless and Medusa didn't dare to withstand such a ferocious storm of attacks head-on, and the only one that Adam could think of that could completely ignore a wave of attacks like this was Diamond.

It's finally starting to become as strong as I expected. n0VElUsb.c0m

Even though Adam's attacks weren't having much of an effect, he remained completely unfazed and immediately invoked his super bodyguard, Sludge.

Sludge was able to compensate for Clown's lackluster offensive prowess.

As soon as it appeared in its stone giant form, its enormous stature resulted in its head crashing directly through the roof. Its massive body filled close to half of the room, and upon receiving an instruction to attack, it immediately began swinging its huge fists at the spider anomaly.

Sludge possessed no abilities to enhance its offensive prowess, but its physical strength was incredible. With each punch that it threw, a ferocious gust of wind would be swept up in the room, and the spider anomaly's body was creaking audibly under Sludge's powerful fists.

It didn't take long before the anomaly was forced to the ground, unable to withstand the fearsome assault, and a crater that was half a meter deep was smashed into the ground beneath its body.

Soon, one of the spider anomaly's legs was broken, but before Sludge was able to capitalize on that, the anomaly scurried away with its remarkable speed.

Its body wasn't particularly massive, and due to its spider-like form, it was extremely agile and maneuverable in confined spaces, allowing it to scurry through a crack in the wall in a flash.

Sludge immediately tried to give chase, but it was hindered by its enormous body, struggling to force its way through the room that it was stuck in.

Of course, with its tremendous strength, it wasn't a difficult task for Sludge to barrel its way straight through the walls, but its speed would obviously be negatively impacted, and there was no way that it would be able to catch such a fast-moving anomaly.

Thankfully, aside from Sludge, Adam and Shae were also present on the scene, and they immediately sprang into action to intercept the fleeing anomaly.

The anomaly forced its way through their attacks and crashed through the wall of the school building, bursting out into the open before continuing to flee through a corridor outside.

Adam also charged out of the building in hot pursuit.

The spider anomaly was extremely fast, but Adam was also no slouch when it came to speed. As the chase continued, the two of them quickly arrived at a lake on the university premises, and the anomaly rushed over to a tree beside the lake before digging up another glass jar.

This jar contained another human head, and this one belonged to a woman.

After the jar was shattered, the head was instantly resurrected, and it screamed as it was installed onto the spider anomaly's body.

By the time the second head was attached, Adam had only just arrived, and he could see the wounds on the spider anomaly's body healing at a rate that was discernible even to the naked eye.

Prior to installing the first head, the spider anomaly had already sustained some injuries from Adam's attacks, and even though its defensive prowess had been enhanced following the installation of the first head, it didn't recover from its injuries.

However, that was no longer the case following the installation of the second head, which seemed to have significantly enhanced its regenerative abilities.

In what seemed like no more than the blink of an eye, it had completely recovered from all of its injuries, and its broken legs also reattached themselves together. Before long, it was as if it had never been injured in the first place.

It looks like it gains a new ability with each head that it fits onto its body.

A grim look appeared in Adam's eyes as he made this observation.

According to his file, Sima Kai had collected a total of seven heads, yet only two of them had been installed thus far, and its combat prowess was already not inferior to Diamond's.

Diamond's fighting style relied almost solely on his near-impenetrable defenses and his enormous body weight, but he was quite mediocre when it came to his other abilities.

In its current form, this anomaly's defensive capabilities were slightly inferior to Diamond's, but its regenerative abilities had far outstripped Diamond's, thereby granting it superior overall physical resistance.

Its destructive capabilities were also inferior to Diamond's, but it made up for that with its speed and agility, so it really was difficult to say which one of the two possessed superior overall power.

Adam didn't even dare to imagine just how formidable this anomaly was going to be if it were allowed to collect all seven heads.

I have to kill it before it gets any stronger!

With that in mind, Adam immediately conjured up an army of clones, all of which pulled out their most powerful weapons before bombarding the spider anomaly with a ferocious barrage of attacks.

Some of the clones were firing at the anomaly with their gatling guns, some concealed themselves before sneaking behind it and adhering plastic explosives to its back. Some were firing their rocket launchers directly at its heads, and some were hurling all types of grenades and explosives through the air.

All of a sudden, it was as if the schoolyard had transformed into a battlefield on which two opposing armies were waging war against each other, and dirt and shrapnel were flying in all directions, while the water in the lake was also stirred up violently.

However, despite the ferocity of Adam's attacks, the anomaly remained largely unscathed.

Adam's attacks were only able to inflict some minor injuries onto the anomaly's body, all of which it was able to quickly recover from.
