Chapter 230
The scene was so incredibly shocking that someone with a weak heart would probably be scared to death by the sight.
Suddenly, something seemed to occur to Adam, and he turned to Justin with a doubtful expression. “Could they be that brat's men?” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
However, no one was able to give him an answer.
Faced with an entire armed regiment, Adam was initially overwhelmed with terror.
However, when he recalled that the person who got him out of prison was Harold's close confidant, he calmed down.
He took out his phone and dialed a special number.
“Ms. Suthers, it's me, Addy. I've run into a spot of trouble in Norwal City. I'm surrounded by armed men...” Adam said, cautiously reporting the situation to Carolyn, the person who helped get him an early release from prison.
As one of The Four, it'll only take a word from her to send those people running for the hills.
To his surprise, Carolyn was silent for more than ten seconds after hearing what he said.
Just as he started wondering whether the phone signal was poor, Carolyn burst into a tirade.
“You're a fool for provoking the military there the second you're released, all because of a woman!
Listen carefully. Now is the time to test your capabilities, so deal with it yourself. If you succeed, we'll support you to become the king of the underworld. But if you fail, you're on your own,” she uttered coldly.
Then, without giving Adam a chance to respond, she hung up immediately.
“Hello? Ms. Suthers?”
Panic began to set in his heart as he listened to the dial tone.
Not only did she refuse to help me out of this predicament, but she also abandoned me! I thought I'd be able to rise to the top with the support of the God of War. It never crossed my mind that I'd get cast aside before having the chance to show my capabilities!
Looking helpless, Adam muttered under his breath, “How did it turn out like this? Why is this happening? No, hang on. Ms. Suthers said that now is the time to test my capabilities. If I can ride out the storm, the God of War will recognize me as the king of the underworld...”
As that thought crossed his mind, his eyes lit up.
Just then, Logan appeared at the front with a loudspeaker. He shouted toward Adam and the burly men in black suits, “Those at the front, listen up! All of you are to crouch down with your hands above your heads. Those who dare to resist will be killed!”
As soon as he said that, the burly men who were all scared witless crouched down one after another and lifted their arms over their heads.
“You're a bunch of spineless cowards!” Adam snarled furiously when he saw how fearful his subordinates were.
After pondering for a moment, he bit the bullet and started walking toward Logan cautiously.
Upon seeing him approaching, Logan shouted again, “That person in the front, listen carefully! Stop right where you are and place both hands on your head. Otherwise, we won't hesitate to take you down!”
Although Adam had lived a life of fighting and killing without any fear, he could not help feeling a chill run down his spine with all the guns pointed at him.
Suddenly, an idea struck him. He took out a flag with a golden dragon on it from his pocket and unfurled it.
That was the God of War's dragon flag, and the mere sight of it was enough to cause one to back down and think twice about acting disrespectfully.
Adam had it made after his release from prison to signify that he had joined the God of War's team.
