A Purr-ilous Situation

"Hiss..."

Uraraka Shige touched the area between her chest and abdomen, where there was a Compress, flat disc that now had a dent.

"If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, there would have been a hole punched in by now, wouldn't there? This is really dangerous... It seems this isn't a place where you can just play around."

Uraraka Shige stared at the jet-fired 'Nomu' without any reaction. The so-called danger and terror were just empty words to him.

Simply put, he wanted to show off like this.

Beneath Uraraka Shige's feet, the members of 'Meta Liberation' were being slaughtered by the enemy's 'Nomu'.

Although the officers on the 'Meta Liberation' side used their own methods to hold back most of the 'Nomu', unfortunately, there were still a few 'Nomu' who couldn't find a suitable opponent.

For example, that fat guy 'Nomu', even though someone among the 'Meta Liberation' members finally discovered the anomaly he caused, they were completely helpless against him and could only be called out one by one. In just over ten seconds, two of his companions had already died.

The self-aware, Nomu woman who had once easily slaughtered Uraraka Shige's teammates in the Kamui Woods, simply stood far away watching, showing no intention of making a move.

Perhaps one of the 'Meta Liberation' saw an opportunity? Or perhaps they thought that since this 'Nomu' hadn't participated in the battle, it shouldn't be capable of fighting, and could be a breakthrough point?

In short, reasons are sometimes irrelevant; what matters are actions and results.

The action involved this member of the "Meta Liberation" group overestimating his abilities and launching an attack on the female "Nomu".

The result was that the female 'Nomu' raised a finger, and then a thin black mark flashed out of thin air for a moment.

The entire line of people, including the attacker, who was positioned at the location of the 'Meta Liberation' member targeted by the female ' Meta Liberation ''s raised Nomu, all fell as if struck by Heavy Strike in the direction the female 'Nomu' was pointing.

Just a casual flick of the finger caused such a situation and such consequences? It directly pierced through the ranks of those with 'Meta Liberation'!

The power of this strike was so terrifying that even the Uraraka Shige in the sky was stunned.

Fortunately, after this 'Nomu' casually wiped out a row of 'Meta Liberation' members, it returned to its previous state and did not attack again. Otherwise, Uraraka Shige felt that he would probably have to reveal his last trump card.

A thick fog seemed to rise all around, blurring the vision somewhat and giving it a pinkish hue, much like a cloudy sky at sunset—it was quite beautiful.

However, apart from the female 'Nomu' and Uraraka Shige, no one else in the room seemed to be in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

In those brief three to five seconds of delay, the Nomu's had already rushed up to Uraraka Shige, its two arms, which resembled those of a cannon, already raised, the Black Hole jet nozzles aimed at Uraraka Shige, radiating a deadly sense of crisis.

However, by this point Uraraka Shige had already lost curiosity about the upper limit of his self-healing ability.

So when faced with the jet-powered 'Nomu' that flew in front of him, attempting to attack and kill him in one fell swoop, Uraraka Shige didn't even bother to wave his hand.

A large amount of Gravity suddenly gathered around the jet-powered 'Nomu', instantly condensing into Kurogiri that enveloped Nomu completely.

The Shige points that formed the Kurogiri were completely unrestrained by the Uraraka Shige, and they freely exuded their deadly attraction.

Then a series of snickers erupted.

The Kurogiri gradually condensed into a circle.

As a result, the surrounding air began to converge towards this direction.

So not even a scream could be heard from within the Kurogiri.

The ejected 'Nomu' was already 'corroded' by the Kurogiri.

Just like those 'revenge targets' who were swallowed up by the 'Death Omen Star's' Kurogiri during those three years.

When the Kurogiri dissipates, this 'Nomu' will probably look like an insect nest, right?

The entire body will be covered with dense, tiny holes.

However, Uraraka Shige did not dispel the Kurogiri just like that, because based on his previous probing, he knew that this 'Nomu' had a terrifyingly strong regenerative ability.

Therefore, he needs to go a step further and completely eliminate this 'Nomu' creature.

... That should be it.

That's how it should have been, but things took an unexpected turn.

The surrounding light pink mist gradually gathered and solidified, turning into a cloud-like object.

It's like the mode of transportation called 'Flying Nimbus' in a certain work that Uraraka Shige saw in her previous life.

As the cloud gathered, it swept past several members of the 'Meta Liberation' faction. Immediately afterwards, fine red threads began to drift out of thin air towards the cloud from the mouths, noses, seven orifices, and even the pores of these 'Meta Liberation' members.

When the clouds lingered in front of the Uraraka Shige, they had changed from pale pink to a slightly scarlet and glaring color.

It also carried a faint smell of blood.

As a result, Uraraka Shige abandoned his attack plan.

He felt the blood in his body stirring restlessly, as if it were about to burst out of his body at any moment.

If his physique hadn't been constantly subjected to Gravity, making him far stronger than ordinary people, he would probably have ended up like those mummies below who were just moments ago still resembling human beings.

Even so, he couldn't help but have bulging veins, and his heartbeat had become slow as if it were being suppressed, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The mist that had merged with the bloodline still floated in front of Uraraka Shige, his upper body gradually solidifying... It was the Blood-Transforming 'Nomu' that had just been blown to smithereens by the 'Meta Liberation' cadre, Curiosity - Chikazoku Tomoyasu the cost of severely injuring one of his subordinates.

Of course, there's no trace of the body. It never died; it was entirely composed of blood. Where would a corpse come from? And how could it have bones?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the previously ejected "Nomu" also managed to forcefully break free from the Kurogiri that Uraraka Shige, thanks to its own regenerative abilities. The numerous holes on its body, resembling an anthill, quickly healed back to normal.

Then, once again, she Uraraka Shige without saying a word.

Then, in mid-air, it was stopped by the blood-transforming 'Nomu' whose lower body was still in a cloud-like state.

It's quite illogical, so why can clouds support a solidified upper body? There's a significant difference in density...

Perhaps this is a question worth considering, but Uraraka Shige is not thinking about it at the moment.

Compared to things like density, buoyancy, and drifting away, Uraraka Shige has something more important to consider.

That was something he keenly perceived based on the behavior of these two 'Nomu' beings... a kind of elemental perception? That was probably the feeling.

"These two 'Nomu' beings... both possess self-awareness and the ability to think independently?!"
