Hearing this, the six Venerable Powerhouses hurriedly flew up to the battlefield ten thousand meters in the air. They didn’t dare get close and could only attack from a distance.
Su Ze had no choice but to increase the "dosage," infusing each Impact Cannon shot with even more life energy.
At the same time, he continuously accelerated the water mass’s erosion of Pulamon’s brain, finally gaining control over 80% of it. He could now exert some basic control over Pulamon.
For instance, he could make him block attacks from all sides and even launch counterattacks.
But to gain complete control, the mental erosion needed to continue.
This would still take a little more time.
And so, an incredible scene unfolded ten thousand meters up in the sky.
Six Venerable Powerhouses, one Legendary-level powerhouse, and a Venerable Powerhouse possessing Legendary Combat Power—eight people in total—were ganging up on Pulamon, yet they couldn’t seem to take him down!
"This Pulamon is too strong!"
"The Filth Earth Organization’s newest Legendary is actually this powerful?"
Everyone marveled at Pulamon’s strength, but no one knew that Su Ze’s heart was bleeding. He had already poured a massive amount of Tier-7 Healing Medicine into this fight just to keep Pulamon alive!
It was only because Su Ze could now exert basic control over Pulamon, making him dodge and block many attacks, that he was still standing. Otherwise, Pulamon would have fallen long ago.
In reality, Pulamon was facing the combined assault of Deng Sui and the six Venerable Powerhouses, while Su Ze was essentially just playing healer for him.
Finally... Su Ze’s spirits lifted. He could feel that the water mass had completed its initial invasion of Pulamon’s soul!
’Success!’
’The initial parasitism is complete!’
Although it would still take time to solidify and deepen his control, he could now command Pulamon’s body almost perfectly and use all of his skills.
Su Ze compressed all the remaining life energy in his body into a single Impact Cannon shot. The blast hit Pulamon, instantly restoring him to full health. Pulamon then transformed into a black streak of light and charged toward the six Venerable Powerhouses.
The six of them panicked and instinctively moved aside. They didn’t have the guts to block a Legendary-level powerhouse with their own bodies.
Naturally, Su Ze didn’t move to stop him.
Deng Sui shot Su Ze a cold glance, then flew off in pursuit.
Su Ze quickly followed.
He controlled Pulamon, directing him toward the uninhabited wilderness. Deng Sui was fast and pursued relentlessly.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them left the territory of the Lin Hua Continent and flew out into the wilderness.
Pulamon suddenly slowed down and flew toward the forest below.
Deng Sui frowned, hesitating for a moment. He glanced back at Su Ze, who was following behind him, and ultimately stopped, abandoning the pursuit.
Su Ze caught up, smiled, and asked, "Mr. Deng, giving up the chase? We can’t let him get away!"
Deng Sui gave him a deep look, shook his head, and turned to fly back, having completely given up.
Su Ze felt a pang of regret...
Apparently, Deng Sui knew that if he continued the chase, he would face a pincer attack from Su Ze and Pulamon.
Su Ze didn’t go back with Deng Sui. Instead, he used his Spirit Communication Phone to contact Mr. Ya, telling him to rendezvous with him in the wilderness.
The capital of Ancient An Country was now full of people from the Alien Party, so he’d just be asking for trouble if he went there.
As for hunting down the remnants of the Filth Earth Organization, he had no interest.
Su Ze knew the battle between the Filth Earth Organization and Lin Hua Country was far from over. The Filth Earth Organization was unwilling to give up on Ancient An Country; this was merely a tactical retreat.
Ancient An Country was too far from Lin Hua Country. In the long run, Lin Hua Country wouldn’t be able to defend it.
Lin Hua Country had only two choices: either station a Legendary-level powerhouse in Ancient An Country for the long term, or, as they did with Peninsula Country, have the entire population of Ancient An Country migrate north to be absorbed by other nations on the Lin Hua Continent.
Both options would be very difficult to execute.
On the surface, the Filth Earth Organization’s losses in this battle weren’t that great. At least, in the eyes of outsiders, Pulamon had successfully escaped.
In the future, Su Ze didn’t mind using his control over Pulamon to continue helping the Filth Earth Organization fight the Nian Race.
’Time to see if Pulamon has the puzzle piece I need.’ Su Ze descended toward the forest below.
