Chapter 195: Sky and Beyond
Renard\'s scream shook the walls, and then he started throwing hundreds of punches in a span of a few seconds-some of the punches were slaps, some were jabs, and the rest were ordinary straight punches.
With the Little God ability working at full strength, Adam moved his hands with lightning speed, parrying and rebounding the attacks.
Smack, smack, smack!
Since he had grown stronger, the devouring side effect of the Little God wasn\'t as strong as before, but it was still a struggle to control.
However, he couldn\'t use the Little God forever without fearing for the side effect.
Especially now.
He didn\'t have any healing flasks left, except for the Setting Sun.
If Renard didn\'t kill him, the devouring might if he pushed himself too much.
At that moment, one of Renard\'s punches bypassed his defenses and smashed deep into his chest with a bone-breaking force that knocked the wind out of him.
"Ah!" Adam coughed out blood.
His face had turned pale as if all the blood was drained from his body.
"You think you can fight me in frontal combat?" Renard smiled menacingly. "The gap between us is bigger than the Blind Sea!"
"Heh..." Adam just laughed and then slammed his feet at Renard\'s chest. "Chi Strike!"
The Chi Strike exploded through Renard\'s body, and his face twisted in sudden pain.
\'He used his Chi Strike with his kicks?!\' Renard thought in shock.
This wasn\'t the first time he\'d seen someone use Chi Strike-it wasn\'t that uncommon of a skill as it had the perfect ability of bypassing all the defenses.
It was especially powerful against Kraft Masters, who could clad their entire bodies in Kraft to protect them from all harm.
However, he thought it was only possible to do with hands and not with legs!
The wings on Adam\'s back swung downwards and left deep cuts on Renard\'s chest and arms.
For the first time in a long time, Renard was properly bleeding, and it felt strangely invigorating.
"Ah, I have forgotten how it feels to be in pain!" Renard screamed and slammed his fist into Adam\'s chest and sent him flying to the ends of the underground cave.
With his wings softening the blow, he crashed into the wall but quickly rose back to his feet.
\'He is poisoned, but it doesn\'t even look like it.\' Adam thought with an ugly expression. \'What can I do now? I had a plan, but it\'s useless now!\'
Renard, his eyes almost glowing, rushed at Adam and started throwing punches that made the air explode.
Boom, boom, boom!
Within an instant, he put Adam at the back foot, while his punches broke bones, ripped the flesh, and left him gasping for breath.
Painful.
It was truly painful.
Adam was pushed around as if he were a ragdoll, unable to defend himself against the relentless assault.
He felt like his whole body was about to break apart and collapse at any moment.
He\'d stopped looking at his health bar as he knew the situation with his body way better than his interface ever could.
With bloodied and broken fingers, he tried to parry Renard\'s relentless punches, but whenever he did, more of his fingers broke as he simply couldn\'t stop those powerful punches.
The blood spewed from his wounds, staining the ground beneath him in a grotesque pool of red.
Yet, while he was suffering, Renard became faster and stronger-each punch of his felt stronger than the last.
"You\'ve been fighting a rusty version of me for the last hour or so!" Renard said with a grin. "This is the real me. Suffer, suffer, and suffer more!"
Bang!
Another punch that sounded like a gunshot landed on Adam\'s arms, and he was thrown back several dozen meters.
The flesh around his forearms was bloodied and ripped open, exposing the muscle underneath.
It was a hideous sight.
\'It sure is painful,\' Adam thought while struggling to stand up. \'I\'ve been using Minor Healing non-stop, but my mana reserves are almost depleted.\'
Renard didn\'t give him a second to catch his breath and lurched forward with another attack. Adam shrunk his body behind his arms and braced for the impact.
SMACK, SMACK, SMACK!
The punches landed on his forearms, sending shockwaves of pain up his arms.
It wasn\'t only a few punches, but hundreds of punches that seemed to come at him all at once.
His arms wanted to break under the force, but Adam didn\'t allow them.
He was using his White Kraft to somewhat protect his arms, but it didn\'t seem to work even slightest.
For a moment, he wanted to use his wings to shield himself, but he knew he needed to save his wings as those were his last trump card.
If Renard exhausted himself, perhaps he could still fly away back to the New World. Based on the strength of these punches, he doubted whether his wings could handle them.
Losing his wings would be the end of the fight. He was fine with losing his arms and legs as long as he still had his wings left.
At that moment, a punch seemingly came out of nowhere and landed on Adam\'s jaw, pushing his face to the side and stretching his neck muscles to their limit.
It was at that moment that everything turned dark for him.
However, immediately after, another punch landed on his chest that woke him back up.
Adam, frightened to the core, again hid his body behind his arms while the punches continuedNôv(el)B\\\\jnn
to rain down on him.
\'I lost consciousness?\' Adam gulped. \'That was almost it. I almost died!\'
\'Minor Healing, Minor Healing, Minor Healing!\'
Ignoring his lack of mana reserves, he continued to use his healing spell to somehow keep
him alive!
A sharp headache assaulted his mind, but he refused to stop.
As one of the punches came from front, Adam dodged the fist with a head tilt and, with a coincidence, looked straight towards the open ceiling, towards the sky above.
At that moment, a crazy plan formed in his mind.
\'Sky. That\'s right.\'
Without a moment of hesitation, Adam put Renard under a bear hug, and with a flap of his
wings, he flew out of the open ceiling and straight towards the sky.
"Hands off me!" Renard formed a spearhand and stabbed through Adam\'s chest.
"Cough!" Adam coughed out blood that splattered across Renard\'s face.
"Ngh, disgusting!" Renard shook his head, trying to shake off the blood from his face.
\'Faster, faster, faster!\' Adam forced his wings to flap harder and faster. \'To the sky and
beyond!\'
Renard screamed and tried to remove the arms from around him.
As he grabbed the arms, he broke and shattered the bones within them.
After doing so, he thought that Adam\'s grip would loosen, but the opposite happened, and his
grip only tightened further.
"Where the hell are you taking me?!" Renard asked in anger. "Let me go, fool!"
Adam just coughed blood and used his Minor Healing without stopping even for a moment.
The mana reserves were already depleted, and he was using the backup reserves, but that was
just enough to help him stay conscious for a few more seconds.
\'A few more seconds is all I need!\' Adam flew through the dark clouds and flew straight towards the stars above.
\'Don\'t tell me he is trying that...\' Renard\'s eyes widened in shock. \'Madman!\'
