Chapter 475 - The Man That Can Get It Done
After a few hours of silence, in which Adam and Rex had been in dormant and ethereal states that allowed them to recover rapidly, they finally awoke at similar times.
Rex had even cultivated slightly in the dormant state it was and when it awoke, despite all the food that it had eaten just before it began recovering, it was hungry again.
Waddling over to Adam, Rex huddled up beside him and also signalled to Adam that it was hungry.
Adam laughed and called for the soldiers to bring even more food, but to also bring food for him.
It had been a while since he had last eaten and he requested enough food to feed an entire family, and yet Adma felt as though he was quite reserved with his order and could eat much more than that.
They did as he said, since that was what they had been instructed to by their boss and they quickly returned with what he requested.
This time, the soldier made sure to knock, remembering how he was nearly hit by Rex and couldn't help but smile slightly, seeing Adam playing with the small and cute dog.
But remembering how fast and frightening the dog was when it nearly accidentally crashed into him, that scene was tainted and he left the food that Adam requested before quickly leaving them.
Around the room they were in, despite the strength and durability of the material it was made out of, their game of Extreme Tags had managed to create small dents after continuously bursting off the walls.
It was unbelievable that they were able to do so much and move at such high speeds for so long, hearing continuous banging sounds as they bounced around the room.
Adam dove into his food and began eating, while he told Rex to open the cans of dog food itself and that it could use its teeth to do so.
To his surprise, Rex didn't listen and merely chomped on entire cans and crunched on the metal can as if it was nothing.
Since it was a beast and didn't seem to be struggling to digest all the metal he was consuming, Adam didn't stop him and was too busy scoffing down his own food.
After finishing, Adam could still eat more, but was stuffed and satisfied, while Rex felt the same way, as they both lay on their backs and relaxed.
However, their relaxation was cut short as the soldier quickly came into their room and didn't knock, which was unusual.
"You have been called to urgently head toward the entrance gate. The boss awaits you along with a senior figure within the army that we do not know. I was told that you knew about this and that you need to prepare to leave with them immediately," reported the leader of the group of soldiers.
Hearing that, Adam jumped up and had a smile on his face, ready and excited to take on the giant man and also see who exactly the senior figure within the army was and what they were capable of.
Being escorted to the entrance gate of the base, which took a while to get to because of the sheer size of the base, Adam was greeted by the giant man along with an enormous vehicle that was similar to the one he had been escorted in.
"Come inside, the man who can make our duel happen is in there, but he said he wanted to meet you first," he said as he entered and told Adam to come in after him.
Adam was impressed by how quickly the giant man had gotten in contact and gotten someone that was powerful enough to oversee their duel and provide him with the reward that he wanted.
Confidently and calmly getting into the vehicle, Adam carried Rex in with him, who he had accepted as his pet and companion from then on after testing its capabilities and also enjoying its company.
It was unbelievably spacious within the vehicle despite the size of the giant man that sat next to him, while the person who was supposedly a senior figure within the army looked nothing like one would expect.
He had a small figure and yet he sat alone opposite them while Adam was cramped with the old man and Rex on the other side.
The man had didn't have an intimidating aura, but something about him was unusual and his presence made people feel uncomfortable.
"So this is the one you spoke about. Interesting" he mumbled to himself as he stared at Adam with his beady eyes and moved closer towards Adam's face.
Staring straight into his eyes, Adam felt as though he could see into his soul, but felt no fear and also glared back into the eyes of the weird man before him, causing the man to smile.
"He is a fearless and brave one. A young warrior as they say,"
The man was very weird and Adam called the giant man an old man, so what could he call the man before him who appeared to be on the verge of decomposing.
He had a sickly appearance and very pale skin, along with freakishly long nails and an extremely skinny body.
[You mean to tell me that this is the man that can get it done? He is nothing like I expected, and even this titan of a human seems to be afraid and intimidated by him] thought Adam to himself.
{He is so weird right, touching you like that} affirmed Ava.
[Is someone getting jealous?] teased Adam, causing Ava to become flustered and became defensive.
However, Adam quickly ignored her and focused on the situation at hand, knowing that if he suddenly spaced out and spoke to Ava within his mind, it would appear as if he was crazy to those around him.
"So then, tell me about this little one. What is its name?" asked the man as it went to pet Rex.
Unlike with the giant man, Rex didn't dare to bite his hand and hid behind Adam, seemingly afraid of the unusual man.
