Chapter 150: Elevator

"Who cares about that? He\'s a deranged serial killer! Not only did he kill a lot of people, he seems to have even eaten some of the women that he kept locked up in his underground dungeon. There\'s no need to have any sympathy when it comes to someone like him," Shae said. "Don\'t tell me you preach unconditional love or something like that."

"I certainly do not. People like that won\'t be able to survive in Shadow City. Don\'t forget what kind of place this is." Fighter Li wasn\'t affected in the slightest by Shae\'s teasing. "In that case, let\'s begin. I want to see the anomalies that Nie Yiyi was telling me about."

In complete contrast with Fighter Li, who was raring to go, Hook was always far more reluctant and distressed in situations like this, but this time, he chose not to back down.

He knew that Adam\'s match against Oni no Hanzou was coming up soon, and that it was going to be a one-on-one battle this time.

Hook was naturally aware of how much danger Adam would be facing in a match like this. He had always been the member of the who had contributed the least, and this was the perfect time for him to make himself useful.

"Once we get in, I\'ll use my scouting abilities to try and split up the anomalies. Ideally, we\'ll be able to target them one by one."

"It\'s rare to see you devising a strategy." Nie Yiyi patted Hook on the shoulder as a gesture of approval. "That\'s a huge improvement!"

"Let\'s get ready to go in."

Adam took a moment to compose himself before crouching down.

Sithu hadn\'t showered in many days, and all of his urination and defecation were done here as well, so the entire room was filled with a foul stench. As soon as he caught sight of people approaching him, he immediately began to spout all types of nonsense, begging for mercy one second, then threatening to kill them the next, and right now, he was staring at Adam\'s neck while licking his lips.

"I\'m sure your larynx would be very delicious..."

"Sure."

Over time, Adam\'s mental fortitude had grown steadily, even without his own realization. The killing intent radiating from the man before him didn\'t faze him in the slightest, and he casually knocked him out with a punch, then pressed a finger onto his head after giving everyone else some time to get into position.

In the blink of an eye, Adam had already invaded the man\'s psychic world.

Upon arriving here again, the first thing that Adam was struck by was how difficult it was to breathe. It was as if the air were filled with glue, making it extremely sticky and viscous.

Looking up at the sky, it felt as if even the light of the sun were gray. The entire area was filled with shadowy light, while the ground resembled a sticky swamp that was giving off the foul odor of rotting meat.

Dark, damp, sticky, suffocating.

The environment in Sithu\'s psychic world was still the same as it had been during Adam\'s last visit.

Following Adam\'s arrival, everyone else quickly entered the psychic world as well.

Fighter Li was in his usual coarse linen garments with a conical hat on his head.

Shota Sato\'s appearance had changed slightly, but overall, his psychic body still bore a strong resemblance to his physical form, with the exception of the pair of metal gloves that had appeared over his hands.

Hook was still in his steam robot form.

Nie Yiyi had grown into a tall and slender warrior with long, powerful legs, and a pair of blades in her hands.

As soon as Shae entered the psychic world, she was immediately urged to fuse with Hellhound, transforming her into a female werewolf.

Meanwhile, Adam also immediately fused as one with Mummy.

With that, the entire team was ready for battle.

"It feels awful in this place!"

Hook raised his foot as he looked down with a disgusted expression. He was clearly standing on a concrete road, but for some reason, he felt as if he had trodden on bubblegum, and viscous strands were pulled up from the ground as he raised his foot to examine it.

"Now\'s not the time to complain, we have to search for straggling anomalies." Adam inspected his surroundings, taking in the lights, environment, and the tall buildings in the area, following which he determined that they seemed to be in Sandrise City. "There\'s an underground dungeon somewhere in Sandrise City where multiple anomalies are gathered, so let\'s not go there for now."

"Where should we go then?"

"Last time I came here, there was a beer bar from the host\'s childhood. There are two relatively weaker anomalies there, so our best course of action should be to go after them first."

If they could destroy the two anomalies at the beer bar, Adam\'s powers would be further enhanced, thereby making him better equipped to tackle the more powerful anomalies lurking in the underground dungeon where the young woman was being held captive.

"Alright, let me see..." Hook pulled out a telescope as he spoke, but after looking around for a while, he didn\'t seem to have been able to find any clues. "Let\'s go to the top of the tallest building in this area. That\'ll make it easier for me to find other psychic modules."

Adam nodded in response.

The tallest building in the area was very easy to find, and they quickly made their way over to the elevator outside the building before piling into it.

"Make some room! You\'re taking up way too much room, Hook!"

"You\'re one to talk!" Hook took a glance at Shae in her werewolf form, then opened up his cabin door. "If it\'s too cramped in the elevator for your liking, then you can get in here."

"No way! It\'s disgusting in there..."

The two continued to bicker while squeezing their way into the elevator. Thankfully, logistical problems had clearly been considered in this massive building, and the entire team was able to just barely fit into the elevator, including the likes of Adam, Hook, and Shae, who took up far more space than the average person.

However, it was far from comfortable to be crammed into this elevator like a can of sardines.

After pressing a button on the panel, the elevator quickly rose up, ascending to an altitude of several hundred meters from the ground level.

The ground was getting further and further away, and right as all of the streets down below had become as thin as fingers in the eyes of everyone in the entire group, the elevator suddenly drew to an abrupt halt with a loud clang, stopping at an awkward point between two levels.

"What\'s going on?"

"In the movies I\'ve seen in the past, usually, when this happens, the elevator is about to go into free fall..."

Before Hook even had a chance to finish his sentence, a loud snap rang out from above, and the elevator began to plummet at a speed that was even faster than the speed of its ascent up to this point.

"You just had to say it, didn\'t you?"

Nie Yiyi immediately sliced open the elevator, then flew out like a sparrow with the assistance of the power of wind. She circled around in the air before plunging her blades into the glass on the outside of the building, and her blades slid down to shatter the glass beneath them while also gradually slowing down her descent.

At the same time, everyone else in the elevator also sprang into action. Fighter Li punched through the glass in front of him, then leaped before clinging to the side of the building like a lizard.

In contrast with these more technically proficient adapters, Adam\'s strategy was far simpler and more barbaric. He completely smashed the elevator open from the inside, then plunged his entire body into the concrete structure outside the building.

Soon, everyone with the exception of Hook had used their abilities to break out of the elevator and were hanging outside the building.

"Help!"

Hook was still trapped in the plunging elevator, and Adam hurriedly released his bandages to catch him.

However, while saving Hook, he made sure to remain on his guard.

Modern elevators were extremely stable, and there was no way that it would\'ve plummeted like this for no reason. The only possible explanation was that there was foul play involved.

Sure enough, while Adam was inspecting his surroundings, a black shadow suddenly came crashing down from above, striking him with such a tremendous impact that the entire concrete structure that he was clinging to was completely destroyed. As a result, he had nothing to hang from, and he began another rapid descent.
