Chapter 485: Madam Tree's Strategy
To put it more accurately, they were all psychic clones that were separated from their human bodies and existed solely in a psychic state. They weren't complete life forms. Instead, they were more like entities that had been replicated through Digital Life technology.
Before Adam had a chance to ponder the situation, the tree swayed slightly, and around a dozen balls of light flew off the branches before hurtling toward him.
They were moving far too fast for Adam to react, reaching him in the blink of an eye before shattering, to release the human bodies inside, which then instantly transformed into anomalies of different descriptions.
Among them was a familiar face, namely Herman Glenn, and with his powerful time manipulation abilities, he was able to virtually stop the flow of time within a radius of several hundred meters.
However, Adam was far better equipped to deal with this ability than last time, and it wasn't even able to slow down his thoughts in the slightest.
Right as the psychic body reached Adam and was about to slice its knife into his body, Adam retaliated with Mummy's carving knife, plunging it into the psychic body's abdomen before cutting it in half on the spot.
Herman's psychic body instantly disintegrated into countless specks of light, and its time domain was also dispelled.
Before Adam had a chance to catch his breath, another spatial ability was unleashed, and the entire area in a radius of around 10 meters shattered like glass. The sharp edges of the shattered fragments were able to slice through Mummy's bandages with ease before piercing into its body.
This ability was virtually a perfect counter to all anomalies that relied heavily on their physical defenses, and Adam instantly split up from Mummy before fusing with Scarecrow.
In this form, he was able to transform into a colony of bats that flew out of the domain before converging together to reform Scarecrow's body.
That was close!
Thankfully, Adam was currently able to control all of his anomalies and abilities like extensions of his own body. Otherwise, if he had been just a little slower to execute that maneuver, he would've most likely been torn to shreds and killed on the spot.
Is this how incredible combining psychic techniques with digitization can be?
Adam's gaze immediately locked onto the psychic body that had unleashed the spatial ability, then pounced at it before lashing out with his scythe.
The psychic body was instantly sliced in half, but instead of perishing on the spot, it shattered into countless pieces, then converged to reform the same psychic body several dozen meters away. With its unique spatial abilities, these simple slicing attacks alone weren't enough to kill it.
With that in mind, Adam invoked Camera without any hesitation, and a bright flash illuminated everything in a radius of 100 meters, stopping time for a brief moment. n..OVElBIn
Camera immediately pounced on this opportunity, lashing out with its peerlessly sharp limbs dozens of times in the blink of an eye to completely slice the psychic body into pieces, following which Hellhound unleashed an Explosive Fireball before the pieces had a chance to reform, thereby incinerating the psychic body into nothingness.
However, Adam could sense that it hadn't actually died. Instead, it had returned to that tree and reverted back into the form of a lantern. One of the major traits of digital life was that as long as a backup copy existed, one could be killed countless times and still be resurrected.
This meant that as long as the enemy had sufficient computing power, they would be able to infinitely resurrect Adam's opponents, to trap him in a never-ending battle.
I have to find a way to destroy that tree! That should be Madam Tree's psychic body.
Even in the digital world, one's psychic fluctuations couldn't lie, and she had to have been present to control so many psychic bodies at once.
However, destroying the tree was far easier said than done. All of the psychic bodies were also beginning to unleash their abilities, with one of them altering the gravity parameters to force Diana to fall out of the sky, rendering her unable to unleash more of her draconic technomancy.
Another one had released a swarm of self-detonating hornets that outnumbered Clown's clones more than 10 to one, attacking the clones in kamikaze attacks.
One was using ice-based abilities to freeze the sewage being released by Nun, and there was even one that had transformed into a strange looking truck with the front riddled with geared drill bits, and it crashed heavily into Sludge, managing to drill deep into Sludge's body despite its immense physical resistance.
This is a conceptual type of destructive power. As long as that thing possesses sufficient psychic power, it can probably drill through anything.
This was the unreasonable nature of psychic abilities. As long as one possessed sufficient psychic power, they could even envision a Big Bang.
Individually, none of these psychic bodies would've been all that troublesome to deal with, but there were simply too many of them to take on at once.
Adam hurriedly adjusted the positions of his anomalies so that they could take on opponents that they were better equipped to oppose.
However, the tree sent several dozen more psychic bodies falling out of the sky, transforming into another small army of anomalies that swarmed toward Adam.
At this rate, there's no way I can win.
Adam could see that after being forced down to the ground, Diana had been enveloped within a cloud anomaly, which had transformed into a massive cocoon that had trapped her inside. He was beginning to grow a little agitated, and his mind was racing for a solution.
A had told him to come and secure the key, so it had to have calculated the probability of success and wasn't just sending him to his death.
In that case, it stood to reason that no matter how powerful Madam Tree's abilities were, there had to have been some holes that he could exploit to defeat her, so his priority now was to find those holes.
While he was observing, he was considering whether he should invoke all of his low-level anomalies to fight against those psychic bodies.
Madam Tree was controlling these psychic bodies through a psychic connection, much like the connection between Adam and his invoked entities.
These psychic bodies were most likely replicas of the people that she invaded, modified, and cleansed, and they possessed the same abilities, but weren't as flexible and adaptable as the originals and were also unable to grow any stronger.
However, she had never regarded them as important allies. Instead, they were just disposable tools to her.
All of a sudden, Adam arrived at a realization. There was a very good chance that this tree wasn't Madam Tree's true body. Instead, it was more like a tool for controlling psychic bodies.
Her true body had to have been somewhere nearby, so what he had to do now was disengage himself from this battle against these psychic bodies and find a way to force out her true body.
With that in mind, Adam instructed Scarecrow to rise up into the air while releasing a relentless stream of bats, which rushed forward with no regard for their own lives, opening up a path to Diana. He then invoked Camera to slice through the cocoon around Diana's body to free her.
At the same time, he invoked Horse Face, which quickly conjured up its Lamenting Wall to form a safezone around Diana as he yelled, "Use that attack you used against Hebi no Miko and aim it at the ground! The one that creates that crater that turns into ice!"
Diana immediately heeded his call, letting loose a thunderous roar before unleashing her draconic technomancy.
