Chapter 487 - Rapid Growth
Seeing that Elizabeth was looking at Rex that he was carrying, Marco let go of Chase's hand and stopped sizing him up, then handed it over to her.
"Adam said, me give Elizabeth dog. Poison bad-bad for dog, and you help,"
Elizabeth had already sensed something ominous within the dog that was consuming it internally, and instantly after monitoring the dog, she understood what Adam had meant by saying there was something that could help her grow stronger.
The poison within Rex was extremely powerful and unique, able to adapt, grow stronger and mutate.
If she was able to somehow understand, absorb and be able to wield the poison, her power would greatly increase and her attacks would become much more deadly than they already were.
She was unsure where exactly the dog beast come from, but she was impressed and amazed by how strong its body was and how well it was able to fight off the poison.
"It seems as though Adam has not only gotten a powerful subordinate, but also a powerful and interesting pet," she mumbled to herself as they headed back to the secret base.
Around it, they had formed their headquarters, and only the leaders could enter the secret base, but they allowed Marco and he had already formed a contract with Adam, and also formed a second contract with Chase, becoming his subordinate.
Without waiting any time, Chase and Marco got right into sparring each other and soon after they began, Cole, Angela and Wayde also joined in.
Marco seemed to have the edge at the start and felt as though he was more powerful than them all, but it soon became clear that just like with Adam, despite the gap in cultivation level, they made up for it with skill and their abilities.
In the meantime, Elizabeth began diligently studying the poison and trying to absorb and control it bit by bit, all while slowly drawing the poison out of Rex's body.
She had to lure it out with her Poison Energy that the poison would try to consume, then clasp it with her medicinal energy and control it, then stream it into her own poison energy in little amounts so that she could consume it.
It was a very difficult process, but she was making rapid progress, along with those that were battling against Marco.
Within a few days, she had managed to take all the poison out of Rex and entered seclusion so that she could fully absorb, understand and control the poison she had just absorbed.
Rex then went on to join the sparring session with all the others and they quickly began progressing and developing with all the resources, opponents and facilities that they had.
Time went past quickly, and they also had their duties to attend to, while they also designated Marco a possession that was second only to that of the leader's.
He had a great character, great power and was also experienced in leadership roles, so there was no reason not to and once again, the Sentinel Faction's power had experienced a great leap.
With Adam's recommendation and his outgoing nature, Marco quickly grew accustomed to his position and became friends with the leaders and just like Adam said, truly did enjoy being a part of the Sentinels Faction.
He had the satisfaction of building something that he would forever be a part of and being surrounded by so many people that were the same, and also had amazing capabilities.
Along with that, the faction he was helping to build and grow had a great purpose that he also believed in.
In a single week, their power grew greatly with a capable, renowned and experienced addition to their faction and began to continue expanding, while strengthening the faction, its members and themselves as much as possible.
For the time being, it was important for them to grow as strong as they could and only recruit those that were strong, had value or were needed.
At the rate they were developing they were definitely a force to be reckoned with, but it seemed as though Nathaniel had no intention of getting involved in their matters just like he had agreed to do with Adam.
He seemed to be a man of his word and saved his life, but Adam still couldn't help but feel wary of him and wonder what exactly his ulterior motives were.
Since he owed him a favour and he had no chance against him, for the time being, Adam had to stay on good terms with him, but when those things were no longer in his way, there were many things Adam wanted to find out about him.
Leaving Russia, not wanting to mess with the army or the Master that had saved him and also warned him to leave within a week, Adam was looking forward to heading to China.
The reasons for that were obvious, but before he did, he wanted to change his style and appearance slightly, namely his hair.
He was unsure what exactly he was looking for, but wanted to not have to keep his smooth, jet black hair tied up all the time, while he also needed some more clothes that wouldn't be out of the ordinary.
As soon as he reached China, which he had used a private jet that he had gotten Elizabeth to prepare to get to, Adam left the airport with a surprised and impressed expression on his face.
Most people seemed to have cultivated slightly, while the energy in the atmosphere was much denser than what he was used to finding within normal cities.
Using energy gathering arrays and all sorts of other items and treasures, increasing the density of energy in an area was quite easy, but it seemed as though the country naturally had energy that was denser.
Walking around, Adam had an interested expression and looked like a tourist, while the first thing he did was look for somewhere to buy some new clothes and to get a haircut.
