Chapter 28: Let Me Beat You Up
"That's just good. It seems that the whole group has gathered together. This is going to make things easier for me. At least, I won't have to go around trying to look for those that had survived so that I can deal with them."
Immediately after he said that, Adam didn't waste his breath anymore. Instead, he began attacking them. As a person who was already at the 3rd level, he was far stronger than the group that was attacking him.
After experiencing several battles that lasted for hours, dealing with a group of youths was not something difficult for him.
As a berserker, the strength that Adam possessed could not be underestimated. Each and every punch of his carried a lot of force and energy.
It was clear right from the beginning who held the upper hand. Adam, with his imposing stature and confident demeanor, faced off a group of seven, without showing any hint of backing off.
With unmatched speed and agility, Adam swiftly dodged their feeble attempts to land a punch. His punches, on the other hand, connected with blazing force, effortlessly knocking each youth to the ground. The sound of bones crunching echoed through the air as his strikes landed with precision.
As the fight progressed, it became apparent that Adam's strength was unparalleled. One by one, the youths fell victim to his overwhelming power, unable to defend themselves against his brutal onslaught.
Their futile efforts to overpower him were met with swift retaliation, leaving them battered and bruised. They were no match for his immense skill and experience.
Michael who had just come back to his senses watched the scene with his mouth agape. He couldn't believe that Adam was that strong. He had thought that he was perhaps considered amongst the strongest people present, but now, he knew that he was wrong.
Even though he had a lot of hope that the group that he was leading would be able to overpower Adam with their superiority in terms of numbers, soon, his thought was thrown out of the window as he realized that the situation was already irreparable.
It was also during this moment that he thought of running away formed in his mind. But, with his pride as a leader of one of the factions that had been recently formed, he couldn't run away.
Even though he was sure that he would be at a disadvantage in a fight between Adam and him, he didn't believe that Adam wouldn't be tired by the time that he finished the fight with the seven youths that he was facing.
For that reason, he continued standing on the side, waiting for an opportune moment for him to strike.
Despite their desperation, the group of youths could do nothing but watch in awe as Adam dominated the fight. His blows were calculated, his movements fluid, and his resolve unwavering. His sheer determination to emerge victorious was evident in each strike he delivered.
With every punch and kick that he threw, he remembered the moment that the two of them had suffered. Even though they did not go around trying to make enemies, who would prevent others from making enemies out of them?
Michael and his group were in the latter category. Since Michael was previously in a gang, he had wanted to be a leader. And, when he saw that Adam had a nice physique, he wanted to take him as his lackey. Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com
When Michael saw that Adam didn't react, he thought that Adam had been frightened by the show of strength that he had demonstrated. So, without giving Adam any other chance, he struck forward with his fist.
Adam also reacted when the fist finally arrived close to his face. With incredible speed, he was able to stop the punch with his right hand.
When he grabbed the hand, he immediately used his strength to put pressure on it.
Michael who had not expected that Adam was capable of blocking his attack suddenly felt immense pain in his right hand. The fingers that was still balled together suddenly began feeling the pain as if they were going to be dislocated in the next second.
The first reaction that Michael had was to try and yank his hand away. But, no matter how hard he tried, he was surprised to find out that there was nothing that he could do. He was far weaker than Adam.
"Now, now, now. I have always wanted to get a chance to beat you up, and I have been granted the chance in that, the first person that I am meeting with an evil intent towards me is actually you. So, why don't you play with me for a while?" Adam asked with a smirk on his face.
At this moment, Michael had already begun panicking. Even though he had been expecting that Adam was strong, he had never expected that he was strong to this level.
Now, he didn't even begin regretting about the actions that he had taken before the apocalypse descended. Instead, he was already beginning to regret the fact that, he had faced Adam when he was not yet strong enough.
'Had I known that Adam was this strong, I would have definitely waited until the time that I was strong enough, to be able to dominate the entire facility, before finally coming after him.' Michael couldn't help but regret in his heart.
As for those on the surface, there was no way that he was going to lose his calm in front of Adam.
"So what if you are strong? Do you think that you can rule the entire facility? Even if you beat me now, there is going to be someone who is going to beat you next." Michael stated viciously.
He had already known that his fate wasn't going to be good. But, since that was going to be the case, then he was going to try and rile up Adam, to make sure that he went ahead and faced the other factions.
So far, he himself knew that he was not the strongest person that was present in the facility. And for that reason, he wanted to find a way that he was going to make Adam become an enemy of the strongest person present in the facility.
"Hehehe, what does I facing others who may be stronger than me concern the matter that we are dealing with now? Forget about that for a moment and let me beat you up." Adam snickered as he said with disdain in his voice.
Immediately after he finished saying those words, he lifted up his left hand, and prepared himself to throw a punch.
"Hold it there!" But just before Adam could land a punch on Michael's disgusting face, an arrogant shout reached his ears.
