Chapter 189: Who's Going to Die

In the next instant, the two of them reappeared before Oni no Miko.

The masked Oni no Miko looked down at the immobilized woman as she said, "I have a few questions I want to ask you. If your answers satisfy me, I can release you to fend for yourself. If you refuse to answer, then it'll be the last thing you ever do."

"Why should I trust you?"

"You have no choice. The only thing you can do now is bet on the hope that I'm a person of my word."

"What do you want to ask?"

"Where did you just come from?"

"I just escaped from a small town with many anomalies inside."

"A small town? You mean like a large supply point? Were there any other people in there aside from anomalies?"

"There were three teams in there, one of which was led by a snake woman..."

As an outsider, the woman didn't know Medusa's nickname.

"I know who that is. I can't believe you dared to participate in the battle royale without even familiarizing yourself with all of the S tier combatants first. I wonder if I should condemn you for your stupidity or praise you for your courage," Oni no Miko chuckled. "There are always these adapters in the civilized world that make a series of breakthroughs and think that they're invincible. Looks like you're one of those adapters. Who else was in there?"

"There was a team with four mechas."

"Anyone else?"

"There was also a mummy and a dragon rider."

Oni no Miko immediately burst into triumphant laughter upon hearing this.

"Fantastic! We didn't manage to catch up to them in the last two locations that the dove led us to, but we should be able to get them this time."

Oni no Miko was very excited, but not as excited as the burly man standing behind her.

"Finally! Let's find him and fuck him up!"

That man was none other than Diamond.

Oni no Miko had two objectives for participating in the battle royale, the first of which was to win, while the second was to kill Adam.

In contrast, Diamond only had a single objective, and that was to kill Adam. Oni no Miko had already granted him the reward that he wanted anyway, so it didn't matter to him whether he won the battle royale or not.

A glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of the woman who had been captured at the sight of Oni no Miko and Diamond's excited reactions, and she asked, "If my information was useful to you, can you let me go now?"

"One more question. Do you think I look like a good person or a bad person?"

Oni no Miko suddenly asked a seemingly completely unrelated question.

"A good person?"

"You're wrong."

"A bad person then?"

"That's also incorrect." Oni no Miko shook her head in response. "In this world, do you think it's good or bad people who are the ones that end up dying?"

"I don't know..."

A sense of foreboding was gradually rising up in the woman's heart.

"Neither good nor bad people are guaranteed to die, but foolish people will always end up dead!" Oni no Miko pressed her palms downward, releasing a burst of immense pressure that instantly crushed the woman into mincemeat. She then cast her gaze toward the direction that the woman had come from. "Looks like you made the wrong bet."

……

Inside the supply point, the battle against the anomalies was finally drawing to a conclusion.

After Medusa and Anaconda took care of those two anomalies, the tide of the battle was completely turned.

With those two anomalies dead, three of the six anomalies had met their demise. On top of that, Medusa and the others were freed up to join the battle against the remaining three anomalies, and it quickly became a completely one-sided affair.

With the help of Medusa and the others, Adam, King Arthur, and the four mecha brothers were able to make short work of the three remaining anomalies.

Following the conclusion of the battle, everyone was exhausted, but they didn't dare to show it, particularly the four mecha brothers.

The giant mecha that they had formed was already severely damaged, so there was no way that they could run away, and they could only put on a tough facade.

"Do whatever you want with us, we're not going to be able to get away. However, if you're going to kill us, don't blame us for taking a few of you down with us. We may not have anything else left, but we still have this energy core, and if we self-detonate, this whole town will go up in a giant mushroom cloud!"

"Oh no, not a mushroom cloud, I'm so scared!" Rattlesnake slithered over to them as she rolled her eyes in exasperation. "If you were really that powerful, then you wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state."

"Rattlesnake, come back."

Medusa stopped Rattlesnake before she could provoke the four mecha brothers any further. Medusa had always been quite cautious and prudent, and that was why she had been able to survive to this point in Shadow City.

She was also of the opinion that the four mecha brothers were exaggerating their powers, but there was definitely some truth to their claim.

The final struggles of a powerful adapter were never to be underestimated.

She had witnessed far too many examples of powerful adapters taking down their enemies with them in one final act of retribution. A recent example of this was when Oni no Hanzou had almost killed Adam with his Ghoul Incineration ability.

"We were never actually intent on killing you, and I'm sure you guys don't want to have to self-detonate, either. If you do self-detonate, we may not necessarily die, but you'll definitely die." Medusa turned away and left the four mecha brothers to their own devices as she spoke. "Hence, you can do whatever you please, it doesn't matter to me."

She then slithered over to Adam as she continued, "My team was clearly the one that put in the most work in that battle, so we should be prioritized in the distribution of cards, wouldn't you agree?"

"That sounds very fair, but the battle royale is not a place for fairness."

Adam knew that in this setting, making any concessions would essentially be acts of self-sabotage.

Medusa wasn't bothered at all by Adam's response. In fact, she would've been quite surprised if Adam had agreed to her proposal.

"Alright, then how do you propose we split the cards? 60:40? Or do we split up here, and we all get to keep the cards that we find? Alternatively... Hold on, someone else is here!"

All of a sudden, Medusa's brows furrowed slightly, and she immediately cast her gaze toward a hill in the distance. Sure enough, another team had appeared there, and she was instantly able to identify them.

"Well, well, well, things are getting spicy now!"

Adam's telegnosis was inferior to Medusa's, so he could only follow her gaze, and in doing so, he spotted his two most formidable enemies in this battle royale, Oni no Miko and Diamond.

In the battle royale, everyone could negotiate with everyone.

Adam could negotiate with Midget, with Medusa, even with the likes of Goblin or the four mecha brothers.

As long as there was a possibility for mutually beneficial deals to be struck, everyone would rather negotiate before turning to violence.

However, these were two teams in this battle royale that Adam couldn't negotiate with.

The first of those two teams was Eyeless's team. Eyeless was here solely for training, so unlike everyone else, he was eager to pick fights and completely unopen to negotiation.

The second of those two teams was Oni no Miko's team. Both Diamond and Oni no Miko were sworn enemies of his, and only one of their two teams could come out of this battle royale alive.

"I'll leave those guys to you."

Medusa gave her teammates a look as she spoke, and they immediately departed from the scene, while the four mecha brothers also disassembled themselves and limped away.

However, none of them left the supply point.

Medusa was sticking around to watch the battle and to collect the cards in the supply point after the battle was over. Her team had already endured a grueling battle here, and it would've been a massive waste to give up all of the resources in this supply point.

As for the four mecha brothers, they knew that if they were to attempt to run away, Oni no Miko definitely wasn't going to let them escape. Hence, it was better for them to hide somewhere and watch as the situation unfolded.

Thus, both teams had vacated the battlefield for Adam, who was watching as Oni no Miko rapidly approached.
