Chapter 485 - New Subordinate
An antidote was unlikely to exist to the poison that had been used on Rex and even Milo himself was unlikely to be able to have a way to cure and get rid of such poison, but Adam had someone in mind and that could fix Rex's condition.
With Milo dead, Adam was relieved and as soon as he relaxed slightly, he was overcome with the pain and strain that his body was suppressing due to the situation he was in.
"Marco guard me until I recover," instructed Adam, before activating the Ethereal Recovery Skill.
Although it was extremely unlikely that Adam would be attacked in the middle of nowhere, it was better to be safe than sorry, while he also didn't need that long to recover.
Marco did as Adam said and walked over to his side and stood there on high alert for an entire hour, before Adam told him that he should start recovering as well.
Adam only needed him to stand guard enough for him to complete a basic recovery, so that he was completely aware of his surroundings and ready for an attack.
After he had recovered enough, Marco also began recovering, and they both sat in the snow for a few hours before Adam jumped up and tapped Marco's shoulder and told him to do the same.
Using Fire Energy, Adam dried himself and warmed up his body, then he did the same for Marco who was shocked and amazed by what he just witnessed.
One could only have one attribute of energy within their body and having two was unheard of, or extremely rare, which was why he was so amazed.
While fighting Adam he was sure that he only used attributeless energy, and now he used Fire Energy, which meant that he could somehow wield two forms of energy, and could also do so expertly.
"No need to look so amazed. If I used my full power and all my capabilities, even though there is quite a large gap in cultivation level between us, I would have defeated you easily. That is not to brag, but just to put things to perspective," stated Adam.
"Now then, let's begin with me officially accepting you as my subordinate and there are some terms that you have to accept and a simple contract that you have to form with me. After that, your life will change for the better and you will live with purpose and fulfilment, along with having many powerful people to battle against to your heart's content," said Adam as he imagined Marco and Chase, the two freaks of nature, fighting for hours on end without taking time to stop and recover.
Marco naturally agreed, feeling obligated to do so after becoming Adam's subordinate, but also because he wanted to and after fighting Adam, wanted to fight him again and fight others.
The desire to grow stronger had been reignited within him and he had felt suppressed within his office and because of his duties, but now he felt as though he had much more freedom and his new duty was much more satisfying.
"You are now a part of my Sentinels Faction and you will head to New York. Upon your arrival, you will be welcomed by the leaders who are under me and are my friends. I am sure you will get along and you will be stationed under Chase, and I am sure that you two will have a lot of fun together,"
"Wait, what about you? You should let me stay with you for the next week so that I can be your guard and help you with whatever you need to do," said Marco, knowing that Adam was planning on staying in Russia after hearing his exchange with the master.
Obviously, Marco knew Russia much better than Adam, but Adam refused and was adamant about being alone.
"First of all, I prefer to travel alone and be free. Second of all, Rex needs to be urgently treated. And third of all, I can beat you quite easily, so I don't need your protection, no offence. So just head over to New York and enjoy the new things you will find there,"
Marco nodded his head and couldn't argue with what Adam said, while he was also eager to start his new life.
"Head to the port that I arrived from, which I am sure you know, then make your way to New York. You don't have the contacts you previously had, but I am sure you can get a plane at the airport there and here is some cash. Your previous position should be enough to sort all the legal stuff out with ease," said Adam as he handed him a large bag of cash that appeared out of thin air.
It was a bag that he had kept within his inventory in case he needed it, but Marco needed it more than him, and Adam also had the device Elizabeth had prepared for him, which granted him access to all the faction's funds.
"Also take Rex with you and when you get to my faction, tell Elizabeth to take the poison out of him and also use it to grow stronger,"
Those were the last things Adam said to Marco before disappearing, leaving him there with the unconscious dog and a duffel bag filled with cash.
He was beginning to feel unsure about suddenly being Adam's subordinate, since he had barely given him any information or told him about anything he was getting into, but there was no need to waste time hesitating and he also had nothing to lose.
"I guess I will be going to America. I should begin practising my English" he mumbled to himself as he began heading to the port just as Adam had encouraged him to.
He got a private plane and sorted everything out through a friend that he had outside of the previous organisation he was in, and with money and power, the law didn't mean much.
The law was merely for those that were weak and were abusing their minimal power over those that were even weaker than themselves.
Taking a private plane straight there like Adam expected, it would take him around half a day to arrive and he called Elizabeth to let her know of what had happened.
