Chapter 95: Average Level
That was way too fast!
This was the fastest Adam had ever lost an ally in all of the battles that he had participated in.
Orster had been killed in a matter of seconds, and not only was she unable to test out the powers of her assailant, even as her teammate, Adam had no idea how powerful Orster was or what abilities she possessed.
A complex look appeared in Shae's eyes at the sight of Orster's abrupt death. She detested the arrogant woman, but she didn't want her to die.
"Don't get too hung up on this. If she didn't die, then these students would've perished in her place! She opposed us at every turn and was always trying to establish superiority over us, and in the end, she fell to her own hubris. What's happened has already happened, focus on the battle right now!"
Adam wasn't affected in the slightest by what he had just witnessed, and he immediately invoked Mummy and Hellhound before fusing with the former.
Shi Feng also wasted no time with words as he unleashed his protective ability, releasing a light barrier that encompassed everyone around him.
At this point, the psychic mutant was already at the end of its wits.
His mission was to kill over 1,000 students in as short a time as possible. The electronic eye of Mechguard had already been attacked by hackers, and with all of the data bombs being hurled at them, the Mechguard officers will essentially be rendered blind for some time.
However, due to the existence of the Dataist Union, this was not going to be a very long time at all.
The original plan was for him to wait until all of the students reached the lake before initiating an attack, but it seemed that he would have to adapt.
Due to the time constraints, as soon as the psychic mutant appeared, it immediately pounced toward everyone with its massive body squirming vigorously. Despite its enormous size and the fact that it seemed to have no limbs, it was still able to move extremely quickly, covering a distance of 800 to 900 meters within the span of 10 seconds. Upon arriving before everyone, it reared up to attack the children that were densely packed together, but its massive tail struck the protective barrier conjured up by Shi Feng.
A loud thump rang out as the barrier withstood the impact, and ripples surged across its surface.
Psychic mutants were deranged, but they weren't stupid, and upon seeing the protective barrier, the giant leech monster immediately tracked down Shi Feng in the crowd by tracing the light paths that generated the barrier.
It then spread open its disgusting mouthpart and launched its spear-like tongue through the air again.
.
The tongue instantly punched a hole through the protective barrier amid a sound akin to shattering glass, then sped directly toward Shi Feng.
He wanted to resist, but most of his power was dedicated to protecting the students, and in addition to that, the tongue was traveling toward him so quickly that he had no time to react.
Right as the tongue was about to pierce through his chest, a figure appeared before him, shielding him from the attack.
The very same attack that had been powerful enough to punch through the protective barrier and kill Orster on the spot was taken head-on by the figure, and not only did they not die, they remained completely unscathed.
"Adam?" Shi Feng looked on with wide eyes as Mummy took a few steps back toward him. "How are you so strong? This doesn't match the data that we have on you!"
"Now's not the time to be talking about this! We have to think of a way to take care of this psychic mutant first!"
While the two of them were speaking to one another, the leech monster had already withdrawn its tongue, following which it viciously attacked the opening in the protective barrier with its body. After two or three heavy slams, the opening was enlarged slightly, and it opened its mouth before releasing countless tiny leeches into the area encompassed by the barrier.
"Quick, we have to stop it!" someone yelled from up above, following which an Explosive Fireball was launched up into the sky, blowing up countless leeches.
However, there were some that managed to sneak through and fell onto the ground.
As soon as the leeches landed, they began to viciously attack the defenseless schoolchildren.
The area was very small and densely packed with people, and primary school children had very lackluster mobility, so around a dozen of them fell prey to the leeches in the blink of an eye. The leeches attached themselves to the children's bodies, and it only took a leech a few seconds to suck a child's blood completely dry. The fist-sized leeches grew larger and larger as they continued to feast, and in the end, they grew to become as large as the average adult human and were capable of devouring students whole.
The leeches were like a pride of lions tearing their way through a pen of sheep, and before long, dozens of casualties had already been suffered.
"Fuck!"
The adapters couldn't just stand around and watch any longer, and all of the adapters from the Psychic Church and Adam's team sprang into action at once to attack the leeches.
A single wind blade unleashed by Nie Yiyi was able to sever the bodies of three leeches, but after landing on the ground, Nie Yiyi looked down to find that the leeches that had already been sliced into two were squirming incessantly as the halves of their bodies fused together again.
"Damn it!"
Nie Yiyi slashed her blades through the air, slicing a leech in front of her into several pieces, but it was still able to slowly recover to its original form.
Thankfully, Shae arrived on the scene in her werewolf form before blasting a burst of fire out of her mouth, incinerating the leech that was trying to regenerate itself into ashes.
By the time the two of them killed the three leeches, the rest of the leeches had also been taken care of by the Psychic Church's adapters.
In total, the Psychic Church had sent seven adapters, and with the passing of Orster, there were still six left.
Through the battle that had just taken place, Adam was able to determine the level of ability that the six of them possessed. They were all relatively mature adapters with roughly comparable levels of power.
In terms of overall power, they could most likely stand toe to toe with a level two anomaly, and they were roughly comparable with the Golden Iron Triangle that Anomaly had dealt with in the past, but their abilities didn't complement one another like those of the Golden Iron Triangle did. They were hovering right around the average level of ability for the majority of adapters in society. n0velusb.c0m
None of the six adapters from the Psychic Church were exceptionally powerful, but thankfully, there were quite a few of them, so they were still quite useful in battle.
While Adam was observing the battle that was taking place on the other side, Shi Feng's voice rang out from behind him.
"It's starting to blast out leeches again! We can't keep letting it do whatever it wants. We've already suffered severe casualties just from that one wave of leeches alone!"
"Looks like we'll have to seize the initiative and strike back!"
Shi Feng's protective barrier was able to ensure the safety of the majority of students, but there was no way that it could protect everyone if the enemy were to target any particular spot on the barrier to attack.
"You're no match for it! Look after yourself above all else!"
"It's fine. I may be no match for it, but it can't kill me, either!"
Emboldened by his exceptional defensive prowess, Adam charged directly out of the area encompassed within the protective barrier without any hesitation.
The glass-like protective barrier was very difficult to break through from the outside, but it posed about as much resistance as a gentle film of water for those passing out of it from the inside. After rushing out of the protected area, Adam immediately leaped up into the air, raising his carving knife before plunging it into the leech's abdomen.
The leech monster's defenses were rather lackluster, and the knife plunged into its body as if it were piercing into butter, burying itself to the hilt with ease.
Adam then twisted the blade around before slicing downward with his bodyweight, and he was able to disembowel the leech monster, inflicting a horrific wound that was several meters in length onto its massive body.
The giant leech monster immediately let loose an agonized scream as it twisted and writhed violently.
