Chapter 1661 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
While Glenn was challenging Seth, Adam was about a hundred miles to the east of Quandary Mountain as he led an elite force toward it.
As it happened suddenly, he didnât bring many troops. He only had 500 soldiers with him.
However, these 500 men were his bodyguards. Thus, they were extremely capable. Many martial experts were among them.
If he put all of them together, they would not be at a disadvantage even if they faced 10 thousand soldiers.
âQuick! Go quicker!â
âHurry up. We need to make sure we can get to Scenic Monastery as soon as possible!â Adam kept urging while sitting in the car. He seemed very anxious,
When the two officials saw that, they felt a bit astonished.
After all, Adam was known to be stoic. No matter what he encountered, he could handle it calmly.
Thus, they wondered what had happened today for him to be so agitated.
âHowâs Scarlet? Is there any news about her?â Adam suddenly asked.
âMs. Spanner has been suddenly called on a mission by the patriarch. Thus, we canât get ahold of her at that moment. However, weâve already left a message for her to come to support us once she comes back,â a female official answered.
âWhat kind of mission is she doing? I bet those stubborn oldies are just trying to prevent her from coming!â Adam couldnât help but scold.
It was obvious what the oldies were trying to do. After all, they had lured the most powerful fighter, Scarlet, away at such a critical moment.
It could be seen that the Spanner family consented for Dustin to be killed just so they wouldnât offend the royals.
âMr. Spanner, Mr. Rhys is a lucky man. Iâm sure heâll be fine. Thereâs no need to worry too much,â the female official consoled.
âThis isnât so simple. The entire Oakvale is in turmoil. Even the forces behind the royalties have started to make a move. If I didnât guess wrongly, the bloodshed from ten years ago is about to replay itself!â Adam replied seriously.
âWhat? Is it that serious?â The two female officials were stunned. The bloodshed ten years ago in Oakvale was so chaotic that nobody dared to bring it up till now.
It was difficult to imagine how many people would die again if something similar happened.
âBuddy, you have to hold on. Iâll be there soon!â Adam furrowed his eyebrows. Unknowingly, his body had gone stiff.
Ten years ago, Adam was not of age yet. He couldnât help Dustin as he had no power or influence. Thus, he could only watch as the bloodshed happened.
However, it was different now. He was capable and had enough confidence to fight against such an unfair world with Dustin.
Therefore, Adam had to ensure Dustin did not die no matter what. He was even willing to go as far as to lose his official position-just like how Dustin had protected him many years ago.
Just as Adam was extremely anxious, the car in front of them suddenly stopped.
The car behind them also braked.
âWhatâs the matter? Why did you suddenly stop?â Adam immediately asked through the walkie-talkie.
âSergeant Spanner, a car is blocking the road in front. We canât go through.â A response soon came from the walkie- talkie.
âSomeone is blocking the road?â
Adam furrowed his eyebrows and got out of the car. Sure enough, they discovered that a large truck was blocking the road about 300 feet ahead. This caused the entire road to be blocked off.
Meanwhile, a man with a faceless mask stood atop the truck.
âWho are you? How dare you block my way?â Adam yelled.
âGod of Military, the road ahead is restricted. Itâs better for you to turn back,â the masked man replied indifferently.
âWhat if I donât?â Adamâs gaze was boiling with anger.
âIf you donât listen to me, donât say that we didnât remind you,â the masked man answered.
âWell, I would like to see if you could really block me!â Adam waved his hand and yelled, âKill him!â
As they were in a critical situation, Adam wouldnât go easy on anyone who tried to block his way.
