Free Web NovelChapter 751: Chapter 20: The Bizarre Adventure of the Bootleg Fox Elf
"Damn, what a bizarre Anomaly Zone..."
The Fox Elf was exceedingly frustrated as she fled, darting around in the Giant City District, repeatedly encountering unexpected situations that secretly left her shocked, and she felt she shouldn’t have come here so hastily, realizing she slightly miscalculated.
After all, this is the highest completed Anomaly Domain currently, and her tail count wasn’t yet assured. Coming here in this state was indeed a bit overconfident.
Even though Goyanskaya was modeled after Tamamo no Mae, she wasn’t, after all, the Nine-tailed Fox, merely possessing an Alterego’s Spirit Base based on the prototype. Despite having that potential, to reach a sufficiently powerful level, personal growth was necessary.
Specifically, the tails—
She needed to grow more tails.
Her ambition was so great that she planned her tails to be on those exaggerated targets, for instance... the Alien God. If she succeeded in turning that great being from another star into her eighth or ninth tail, perhaps she would have a chance to surpass the original.
Of course—
By the time she reached the eighth or ninth tail, she would no longer be at the level of a Beast larva but a full Beast. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have the qualifications to swallow and assimilate the Alien God. Before achieving this goal, she first needed to possess similar power.
But now, her tail count was far too lacking, not even close to the Beast larva level, exposing her vulnerability in this Anomaly Domain.
"Damn it, I should’ve just openly revealed myself and directly negotiated with this King of the Strange Realm..."
The Fox Elf was somewhat annoyed, thinking she should have made her identity clear upon arrival, but now things have escalated, and there was no turning back.
However, hindsight is something everyone claims to possess, but in reality, it’s just idle talk. You can’t really blame Goyanskaya either; after all, it was her destined nature, being a "Beast of Play" born from the delight of playing. Toying with others makes her happy, and that’s instinctively what she tends to do.
So at that time, she wouldn’t have considered more; she just acted instinctively, trying to gather information in this Anomaly Domain by her means, tossing in some tricks to prove her capabilities.
If she had succeeded then, there wouldn’t be such reflections now.
It’s precisely because she failed and faced backlash that she started reflecting, following the practical logic of reality.
The frustrated Fox Elf was wildly darting around the Giant City District with no clear pattern, yet she was consistently cornered by the pursuing police forces and eager citizens who surrounded her. She realized something was off; it seemed like she was being tracked and located continuously since she got exposed.
Many of her concealed techniques appeared to be in vain, and as her sensory perception became extremely sharp post-explosion, she vaguely noticed—
The air components seemed off, as if an invisible network enshrouded and assimilated everything.
"Nanofog? Or something similar?"
She bit her silver teeth in frustration; Goyanskaya was utterly infuriated, no wonder she couldn’t hide, always caught promptly.
This nanofog network probably wasn’t merely a technological creation; it might have been processed with the mysterious Electronic Immortal Technique. Ordinary invisibility, aura concealment, spiritualization, and similar methods hardly had any effect.
Furthermore, this nanofog network itself might possess terrifying power, with signal transmission and information relay as its most basic functions.
Although it hadn’t yet attacked, causing her trouble, the Fox Elf still felt her scalp tingle as she shuddered with Magic Power, thoroughly filtering her entire body and then maintaining Magic Protection, not allowing outside air to contact her directly.
Perhaps...
The king of this Anomaly Domain was quietly observing her?
Upon thinking of this possibility, Goyanskaya felt a surge of shame and annoyance. Being a "Beast of Play," but becoming someone else’s toy was indeed a detestable turn of events. Just then, not far away, maglev vehicles with police markings came rushing forth on the road.
"Damn it!"
She spat angrily, realizing the trouble within this Anomaly Domain after so much entanglement, at least the most conspicuous part was exposed—
It was truly a place where everyone had a status comparable to a Servant, similar to another Anomaly Zone’s development direction.
The police seemed to serve merely as "civil officers," aside from legally possessing weapons, they were akin to ordinary citizens. In other words, other citizens were equipped similarly, with both Magic Power and physical capabilities reaching a generally Servant-level standard.
Though not entirely identical, individuals seemed to have their specialization, thus having different development focuses. Some were strength-oriented, some agility-oriented, some balanced, but undeniably, their overall quality did reach a high level.
"Alright, you win..." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Yelling loudly, although speaking words seemingly conceding, her clenched teeth expression and tone showed no signs of actual submission.
Standing still, looking at the approaching enforcers, she muttered defiantly, "Actually, I came here specifically to visit, to see you all... Hey! What are you doing!" A sense of danger instantly arose in her mind, causing her to shift laterally in place!
In the next instant, over a dozen scorching beams of light pierced through the afterimage of the Fox Elf, which remained in place due to its extreme speed.
Head, heart, torso...
All were penetrated.
If they had truly concentrated on her, Goyanskaya had no doubt that this body would instantly disintegrate into basic particles. Although the human-like manifestation was just a kind of terminal existence, the sensation was universally the same; all tactile sensations would be transmitted back to the main body.
"Damn, that must really hurt..."
Feeling the pure magic power contained within those beams of light, the Fox Elf’s face slightly changed, yet she couldn’t help but mutter a complaint.
This group doesn’t follow the script at all; how did they get granted unlimited firing authority right away?
Instinctively glancing around, Goyanskaya suddenly noticed that the area she was in had become entirely empty, as if cleared. The spacious road, as wide as an aircraft runway, was devoid of people. Those towering, sky-high ultra-large buildings seemed like abodes of death and silence.
——It seems, unknowingly...
——All traces of life have vanished...
Goyanskaya instantly realized this, and the sense of crisis in her heart surged to an unprecedented height. It seemed she really had caused a major incident. However, did they have to be so decisive? She had clearly not caused any damage yet, but they were preparing to go all out.
"Intruder!"
"Got you!!"
The next moment, a rumbling sound rose from the ground.
One by one, colossal figures either descended from the sky, slamming heavily onto the ground with a deafening crash, or appeared through some form of teleportation, quietly coalescing into form, transforming from illusion to reality. Ultimately, these towering figures stood around, surrounding the Fox Elf in the middle.
They were large, bipedal combat mechs, with mechanical lines full of a sense of power...
Or massive, armored flying dragons, fierce, menacing, and exuding a murderous aura...
The former were large mechanical exoskeletons piloted from within the cockpit by specially selected operators. With the assistance of intelligent array cores, they could flexibly utilize ion battleaxes, laser missiles, thermal barriers, and other armaments, with their powerful firepower comparable to an entire army.
The latter were specifically bred bipedal flying dragons, although strictly speaking, not true Dragon Species, they were nevertheless connected by relation. Moreover, with their immense and formidable size, and clad in custom-made mechanized armor, they naturally became a special combat unit.
Surrounded by these large bipedal mechs and flying dragons, feeling the intense energy reaction, Goyanskaya’s expression slightly froze.
"I hate this Anomaly Domain..."
She gritted her teeth in anger. The Anomaly Zone King’s side hadn’t yet gone all out, as there was still no personal action or deliberate dispatch of any heavyweight combat power.
But just the Ascension True Country’s own technology and power, and the autonomous reaction triggered by this matter, was enough to give her a hard time. How long had it been since the incident occurred? Even mechanical armor and military flying dragons had appeared. This probably meant that it still fell under the category of a rapid response force.
In other words...
Beyond this, there absolutely existed mechanisms capable of responding to even more intense battles, wielding the terrifying state-sanctioned violence with higher intensity and technological prowess.
What could that possibly be?
Cosmic starship or orbital bombing, or perhaps a unique summoned servant of this Anomaly Zone? After all, when she arrived, she also sensed the presence of a servant. So, making a simple inference, ordinary citizens, under the technological prowess of this Anomaly Zone Empire, could reach the level of an ordinary servant—
So, how much would the existence of an original servant be enhanced?
Her thoughts flashed like lightning, and in the next moment, the surrounding bipedal mechs and flying dragons either let out roars or accompanied by the roar of engines, charging forward with their inherent muscle strength and agility, or the powerful force bestowed by steel mechanisms—
Rushing forward with a thunderous charge!!
It seemed they indeed intended to kill the opponent directly; alerted by the Skynet warning, they had no intention of holding back. The heavy giant beasts charged with a terrifying momentum, strong enough to tear the very ground apart!
A large, bipedal combat mech leapt forward, soaring tens of meters into the air, descending with lightning speed, swinging its ion battleaxe, while the laser core in its chest unleashed brilliant energy beams, providing cover for its divine descent!
And the military flying dragons roared in unison, spewing high-temperature flames from their mouths, or suddenly arching their bodies or swaying their tails, launching dozens of cruise missiles from their head to tail-covered mechanized armor, trailing burning trails, whistling towards their target!
A continuous thunderous roar echoed endlessly!!
