While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 482 - Safe Gamble

"You are yet to crack and are still calm and confident with those red eyes of yours, but we will see if you can maintain that after I am finished experimenting on your fascinating body," said Milo as he approached Adam, with an evil smile on his face.

Adam was completely vulnerable and fighting back without harming himself would be impossible, while even if he used all of his trump cards, in the state he was in, victory seemed almost impossible.

"Stop it, sir. You can't go against your word" called out Marco, who despite being fatigued and knowing he had no chance against Adam, got up to try to defend him.

Adam had earned his respect and as part of the terms of that battle, he had become his subordinate and was no longer affiliated with the army, while he was also indebted to Adam for sparing him even after he began wildly attacking him.

"You were the one responsible for the changes I experienced and I know that only you could do something like that with our knowledge of the human anatomy and the use of pressure points,"

Adam appreciate Marco trying to stand up for him and it was a great show of his character and loyal nature, but he was still confident and calm, which was disturbing Milo.

"One's word means nothing and if you cling to such meaningless things, then you must be idiots," Milo said as he burst out into laughter.

They were in the middle of nowhere, while there were only few in the entire country that could stop him or make him think twice about doing what he wanted in that situation.

"That is true for shameless and spineless cowards like yourself, but you are wrong and in the end, you won't get anywhere," said Adam, as he smirked at Milo and looked at him with disdain.

Adam lay on the ground, defenceless and seemingly unable to move, and yet he was so confident, calm and arrogant that it infuriated Milo to the point he no longer cared about keeping him alive.

"Those eyes of yours agitate me, but it is the last time you will ever be able to look at anything. I can still research on your dead body, so have no need to spare your life," he bellowed angrily as he swung his arm downwards, as a blade of energy flew out of it and was about to slice off Adam's head.

"No," shouted Marco as he struggled to try to stop Milo, while Rex had also bolted towards Adam to try to stop the attack, but there was no hope.

It seemed as though Adam dying was inevitable and by slicing his head off cleanly, Milo could still research Adam's brain and body separately, mostly interested in his mind and eyes that were his strong points.

But it seemed that Adam's confidence wasn't irrational and the blade that was about to sever Adam's head suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Adam was expecting him to be shameless and underhanded, but not to the extent that he would disregard everything in an attempt to capture and experiment on him, but for that reason, Adam had prepared beforehand.

It was the reason he was so confident and it was still a gamble, but Adam was a gambler and although he didn't like it, had to place his trust in and rely on someone else.

Adam had secretly contacted Elizabeth while they were in the vehicle using their communication link that he had formed before leaving them in New York and instructed her to contact Nathaniel.

After having the system for so long and talking to Ava within his mind, Adam had become very skilled at hiding what he was doing within his mind and maintaining a blank and unrevealing expression.

He instructed her to get into contact with Nathaniel by any means necessary, and since they had become affiliated, Adam was quite sure that she would be able to do so quite easily.

Although Nathaniel couldn't be completely trusted, he was powerful and seemed interested in him, so Adam was planning on using him as a special measure in case everything went badly.

Nathaniel had made it clear that he didn't fear Adam or see him as someone that would one day threaten him, while the way he looked at Adam was similar to Milo.

Adam had noticed it and it was almost as if he was looking at a research specimen or a plant that he had grown quickly and he was interested in watching it grow further.

Because of those things, Adam felt as though it was a safe gamble and he told Elizabeth to relay to him what was occurring to him in Russia and that he was about to have an official duel.

Just for extra security, he wanted Nathaniel to make sure that they kept their side of the agreement as there was no doubt in Adam's mind that he would come out on top, but he never expected things to go so badly.

Luckily for him, Nathaniel had gone slightly overboard when getting into contact with the Russian Army and it appeared as though he didn't hold back when lending Adam a hand.

The Master of the Russian Army, who was a figure said to be on par with Nathaniel, appeared out of thin air and even Adam didn't see or sense him coming, and caught Milo's blade of energy with his bare hands.

Just like Nathaniel, he appeared ordinary to an outside viewer, which made him seem even more frightening and intimidating to Adam, while he also outwardly appeared to be in his middle-ages.

His true age was not obvious, but he had luscious and long blond hair, along with bright blue eyes, granting him an elegant and pretty appearance.

If it weren't for his muscular and tall figure, if one looked at him, one may mistake him for a beautiful woman because of his hair and fair features.

But one thing couldn't be mistaken, he had an extremely powerful and intimidating presence that was masked by him, but still couldn't be completely hidden.
