Chapter 255: Adelaide's highlight moment, but why did Fenli say Chapter? !
?◇?◇?◇?◇?
— Adelaide —
(Damn it, how long will it take for this guy’s magic power to run out?! I’m almost out of ammunition!)
Edward wiped the sweat from his forehead, raised his rifle and continued to aim at the black armored giant.
Cheryl was in the front row, constantly waving her light blade, aiming at the gap in the armor again and again, launching fatal attacks on the guy named Dean inside.
Her movements were gorgeous and graceful, making people feel like she was dancing, but Edward had no time to appreciate them.
No matter how many times Cheryl thrust her sword into Dean's armor, no matter how many times she hit Dean's vitals, the armor on his body would quickly heal the wounds, allowing Dean to continue fighting without any injuries.
Cheryl seemed to feel no fatigue, again and again.
She showed no signs of discouragement.
(These two guys are definitely monsters... I'd better be more cautious when I quarrel with Cheryl next time. If I really can't help it, I'll just cling to Alfred.)
Adelaide thought to himself.
As a shooter who kept attacking from behind, he was almost exhausted, but Cheryl was still full of energy and fought with Dean in a situation where he would die if he made a wrong move. She was still so calm!
In Edward's heart, both of them have surpassed the scope of human beings and can only be described as monsters.
"Adelaide, your covering fire is too slow!"
Cheryl jumped up gracefully, twisting her body like a dolphin out of water, dodging Dean's lateral hammer and complaining to Adelaide. It's amazing that she can talk while doing this.
"Don't rush me! Also, my ammunition is almost gone. If you want me to be generous, give me the ammunition quickly. Otherwise, you won't even have any cover fire later!"
"Tsk, we've reached our limit... this guy is really tough."
"That's what I was thinking too. Is there really a way to use up all his magic power?"
Adelaide asked suspiciously.
"Maybe……"
Cheryl answered briefly, stabbing the light blade in her hand towards Dean's head.
The knife missed the target. Instead of striking Dean through the armor's viewing hole, the blade was deflected by the armor.
"Clam?"
"Stop talking nonsense and continue to cover me. If you run out of bullets...you should retreat first. I will hold him back here by myself."
Cheryl ordered.
Adelaide could tell from her tone that she was also quite anxious.
"Stop talking nonsense. How could I leave you alone?"
"It's useless for you to stay here, right? Just retreat and save me from being a burden."
"Ugh~ Damn it~ You, I've been trying my best to protect you. It won't hurt if you treat me a little better!"
Adelaide complained, this time aiming directly at the gap between Dean's helmet with some anger.
Because the gap in the helmet for observing the situation is very small, the hit rate is really pitifully low.
In order not to waste time and ammunition, Edward had not aimed here before.
But Sheryl's contempt for her made her very angry.
Edward had to do something to let the arrogant Cheryl see how powerful he was.
She pursed her lips, held her breath... and pulled the trigger.
The bullet seemed to have grazed the edge of the helmet's observation port, creating sparks and ricocheting into it.
Then, a huge explosion sounded, and tongues of fire shot out from the gaps in the armor.
The burly man named Dean now looked like a Death Knight in a Soul O car. His head was on fire.
"Now you see how powerful I am, Sheryl, how dare you look down on me?!"
When Edward saw the undead, "Oh, it was Dean," he stopped and shouted triumphantly to Cheryl.
"You silly girl, don't take it too lightly..."
Dean's deep voice interrupted Cheryl's warning.
The two men became more alert again.
"It seems that I underestimated you two little girls. My plan has failed, but before that, at least let me deal with the hateful traitor who betrayed Master Antonio."
Dean declared, the helmet that had been emitting flames flashing an eerie red light.
"Eh?"
"Run!"
As Cheryl gave the warning, she was grabbed by the head by Dean, who suddenly disappeared out of nowhere and reappeared out of nowhere.
If it weren't for the nano-armored helmet, she would have been killed by Dean on the spot by crushing her head, right?
"This strange armor is really interesting. It can actually resist the grip of my kind."
Dean seemed very interested and tightened his grip on Cheryl's head.
"Stop talking nonsense, you scum who only relies on equipment!"
Cheryl pulled out a pistol and fired several shots at Dean's armor.
However, the bullets only caused explosions on the armor and did not cause any substantial damage.
"Goooo~!"
Dean tightened his grip on Cheryl's head, and she groaned in pain.
"Damn it, that bastard Alfred said this armor could save my life. If I die like this, I won't let him go even if I become a ghost!"
Adelaide heard Sheryl muttering quietly into the communication headset.
(It’s already this late, why are you still saying such stupid things!)
Adelaide complained anxiously in his heart.
Although she tried to aim at Dean, her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't move them.
In fact, Adelaide also had the option of abandoning Sheryl and running away.
After all, her opponent was so strong and she was so useless, even if she stayed here her sacrifice would be in vain.
Although Alfred can be cruel sometimes, he will definitely forgive himself if he escapes here.
I guess so……
(Ah~! What on earth am I thinking about? I must be losing my mind because of that guy.)
Adelaide cursed in his heart.
She threw the rifle aside, drew the pistol from her waist and rushed towards Dean.
Dean's attention was all on Cheryl and he didn't pay any attention to what Edward did.
In his eyes, I must be no different from an ant, right? Edward thought unhappily in his heart, and vowed to teach this guy a lesson.
Only when they were very close did Dean turn to look at Edward.
The moment he looked at him, Edward used the light ball magic that even a five-year-old child could use.
She poured all her magic power into the ball of light, making its glow as dazzling as possible.
At the moment when Dean was blinded by the strong light and stood there in a daze, Edward slid between his legs and shot the seam between the armored thigh and the lower hip with a pistol.
The flames of the explosion burst out from the armor again. This time, Dylan's entire body seemed to be on fire.
Dylan fell to one knee in pain because of Adelaide's unexpected attack. Sheryl was also thrown out by him.
"Hehe~ If I want to do it, it's not..."
Before Adelaide could finish showing off to Sheryl, he flew out.
The opponent's movements were so wide that Edward couldn't even see clearly what the opponent did.
It seemed as if Dean swung the chain casually and hit her directly in the body.
(This is terrible. If I don’t handle it well, I might die.)
As he watched the world spinning in front of him, this thought came to Edward's mind.
The concussion made her entire vision blurry, and there was an irritating buzzing sound in her ears.
Now Adelaide couldn't even feel the pain, he could only realize that his body was slowly getting colder.
It was just like in my previous life, when I was hit by a car and flew away...
(Ah... at least this time I didn't die so miserably. If I have a chance to reincarnate, I can brag to others that I died in a battle with a super-stubborn villain in my previous life. By the way, I saved an arrogant guy...)
Adelaide thought to himself with self-mockery.
Although it was unclear whether Cheryl could be saved, all she could do now was to pray.
After all, there is not much time left for Edward.
When Edward was thinking this, a strange voice came to his ears.
[It has been detected that the user is in crisis, and conventional treatment systems are ineffective...]
[Request to activate the magic nuclear reactor and perform super regeneration...]
[Target identification failed, rejected...]
[The holder is in crisis and demands again...]
(What the hell is going on here… Am I going to be reincarnated into a sci-fi world this time? I wonder if there are giant robots out there. If there are, I’d really like to see them.)
Listening to the inexplicable voice in his ear, Edward thought without much tension.
however……
[Target identification failed, rejected... Error, identification was forcibly cancelled, the built-in artificial fairy showed abnormality, inferred to be the first alert state...]
The sound rang out again, accompanied by a piercing alarm.
(Ah, what are you talking about? It’s so noisy…)
Edward felt a little headache and really wanted to find someone to turn off the alarm.
[The system has been released... the intensive combustion mode is activated. ]
As if in response to Adelaide's inner voice, she heard a girl with a childish and cute voice say this.
Then, Edward felt his whole body starting to heat up.
It's not the kind of hot feeling that arises instinctively due to physical dissatisfaction.
This feeling is more like when Edward was a child, using a magic crystal with only a half-understanding, and wanted to use the magic power inside to cast powerful magic, but the external magic power poured into his body and caused a 'magic fever'.
"Aww~Aww~"
Then she heard Fenri's voice.
This girl should obviously be left in the dormitory, why is she here?
Adelaide was confused.
"Onee-sama~ Onee-sama~"
In his blurred vision, Edward saw Fenri lick her cheek, then turned into light particles and disappeared.
(Sure enough, this is just my illusion...)
At this point, Adelaide fell into a coma.
When Adelaide woke up again, she found herself standing.
Not only that, Edward was holding a spear that he had never seen before and had no idea where it came from.
She seemed to be confronting Dean, who was wielding a ball and a hammer, and Dean was no longer as confident and arrogant as before.
Dean gasped in pain and glared at Edward fiercely.
(Eh? W-What’s going on?!)
Adelaide was shocked by what he saw and looked confused.
The original black tights-like armor she was wearing now had many white armor plates, like a superhero in some special dramas. This also made Edward Er Zhang Heshang confused.
"Please calm down, Onee-sama. Also, relax your body first, and let me control this armor. I will never let this scum hurt you again!"
The one who responded to Edward's confusion was a strange girl.
Her voice was sweet and lovely, and somewhat contradictory to her childishness was her strong confidence.
"Who are you then?!"
Adelaide asked in panic.
The armor on Edward's body did not obey her commands at all. Instead, he waved his spear and rushed directly towards Dean.
The armored man wielded the spear, knocked Dean's chain away with one shot, and stabbed the tip of the spear directly into the gap of the helmet.
Then, a violent magic explosion burst out from the tip of the gun, and Dean in the armor was engulfed in flames again.
But it was different from the time when Edward was with him. Dean now let out a shrill cry, trying to distance himself from the armor that controlled Edward's body.
"It's me~ Onee-sama, I'm Fenri. Aaaaaaaa~ Aaaaaa~"
The girl imitated the wolf cub's cute barks twice and said this to Edward.
"Eh? But...but..."
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about the details, onee-sama~ I will protect you well! Also, could you please tell Luna-sama and Sylvia-sama that they still owe me a huge meal of bone-in meat."
The girl answered with a smile, and once again controlled the armor on Adelaide to launch a fierce attack on Dean.
(Eh? Sister Luna, Sister Sylvia? Why does my Fenli and Alfred call each other so affectionately? And what is this bone-in meat deluxe meal? I have never heard of it!)
Edward's mind was in a mess and he couldn't figure out the situation for a while.
Fenri has already controlled the armor and defeated Dean, who was helpless against Edward and Cheryl.
From the perspective of an outsider like Edward, Sheryl's swordsmanship is actually not worse than Fenri's gun skills, but the power of their attacks is still far apart.
Every attack of Fenri would produce a huge explosion by utilizing the original properties of this armor.
Before Dean's armor could finish regenerating him, he was roasted by Fenri again and again.
It was clear that Edward had heard Alfred say that the part of this nano-armor helmet was relatively closed and could block the enemy from spraying poison mist or releasing toxic gases.
But at this moment, Edward seemed to smell the aroma of roasted pork.
