Hand Of God

Chapter 55 Adam is different

As for Adam's side, they had no idea how things were going, they could only temporarily trust him and hope that the students would be alright.

Diana was extremely irritable at this moment, killing her way through and searching for the traces of the Divine Fetuses with Thomas.

"Diana, I'm just saying, if something really happened to Adam, would you blame me?" Thomas, who was acting with Diana, finally spoke up after a long silence. Their strength had not encountered any significant resistance, and they had been very quiet the whole time.

"Yes," Diana replied expressionlessly and concisely, a longbow made of cold ice materializing in her hand, firing deadly arrows frantically.

Thomas's face showed bitterness; he knew that Diana's concern for Adam had probably exceeded that of an ordinary student. He seldom saw Diana so out of control.

Throughout their journey, Diana had been more ruthless than usual.

"Hurry up, after we solve the problem, I need to go back within three hours!"

"He's still so young... I don't know what he will go through in three hours."

Diana was exceptionally agitated at this moment, and her speech lacked the usual politeness and respect.

"You're also young, you're the same age, don't push yourself too hard."

Thomas, who had always been as cunning as an old fox, felt somewhat guilty and spoke without much conviction.

Diana turned around sharply and said:

"I started training at the age of fourteen, receiving all kinds of resources and privileges from society, so it's only natural that I protect the people and fight valiantly!"

"But Adam is different, he has never received any extra favors. He hasn't even enrolled and hasn't enjoyed the resources and treatment that a talent of his caliber should have."

"You don't think he stood up just for the money, do you?"

"He just has a pride that doesn't allow him to back down. He realized that if he didn't stand up, his classmates would die, and if we didn't put our minds at ease and come out to fight, this city might be flooded with blood."

"Just like how he saved those two kids back then."

There was a two-second silence between them, and Thomas didn't know how to continue.

"Also, President Freud, I remember that envelope from Adam, didn't you already have it?"

"Why did such an uncontrollable situation still occur?"

Hearing this question, Thomas lowered his head a bit shamefully, as if it had hit a sore spot, making him very embarrassed.

"I have my reasons... I will explain."

"Alright, let's quickly resolve the issue first. I've sensed the aura in this area, I'll take care of it."

"Separate ways, you go to other places and try to suppress today's events as quickly as possible."

After saying this, Diana turned around and rushed out without looking back.

An hour and forty-five minutes passed.

The stadium now appeared calm on the surface.

But if you went inside, you would see that it had completely turned into a hell of ice!

Thick, solid ice covered the entire stadium, the pale cold ice making the place seem as if it had truly entered Absolute Freezing.

On the ground were ice sculptures, with blood and severed limbs scattered everywhere.

In the center of this icy hell, there was a figure covered in blood, slowly pulling out the weapons embedded in his body, wincing and gasping in pain.

"Damn it, this is the third wave!"

"Earning money is not easy, I should ask for more!"

Enduring the pain in his body, Adam sat directly on a large block of solid ice, feeling the chill beneath him and panting heavily.

Only after sitting down did he start to feel a wave of fear.

Had it not been for the good fortune of acquiring the Demigod's Body superpower from that old man Thomas today, he wouldn't have dared to fight so desperately.

Now, although the wounds on his body still throbbed with pain, thanks to adrenaline, he wasn't in so much agony that he would pass out.

As long as he wasn't instantly killed, the self-healing ability of Demigod's Body would keep him invincible.

Many people believe that personal growth and change is a gradual process, but it's not. It's actually a very brief one, sometimes it might just take a moment.

Beneath the peaceful and tranquil facade of this world lies a multitude of bloodshed and turmoil.

Adam, who had only gained his superpower half a month ago, quickly integrated into all of this through one battle after another.

So much so that he himself didn't even notice the change in his mindset - he was completely unflustered when facing life-and-death situations with the Acolytes.

"Let me see, there's still over an hour left."

"Three hours, you should be able to make it back, right? If they send someone so-called 'level 5' over here, I might not be able to handle it."

Adam muttered to himself, diverting his attention to make the pain in his body less noticeable.

Those through-and-through wounds were quite terrifying at the moment.

Just then, Adam inadvertently spotted the steps leading to the underground entrance.

The entrance, long covered by thick layers of solid ice, was now very quiet.

Adam had always been concerned that if someone suddenly burst out to help him fight, should he care about their lives?

If they really did rush out, with the strength these students currently had, it would almost be a death wish.

The gap was just too large.

Fortunately, the students who had earned the qualification for assessment-free admission were all sensible and hadn't done anything so irrational.

While lost in random thoughts, his injuries had basically healed up, and Adam's Hearing of Everything also sensed the latest wave of enemies.

"Sigh, it seems the last hour won't be easy to get through either!"

Straightening his body, he leaped onto a massive ice throne, with various weapons made of frost floating around him, waiting for the new wave of enemies.

He stretched his body vigorously, feeling its condition, and Adam suddenly let out a few hearty laughs with a sense of pleasure.

"Freaking awesome, it's just like in the movies."

"I didn't expect I could have such a cool moment, it's a pity no one's around to see it, damn it!"

Then the glacier beneath his feet rolled, carrying his body straight towards the people who had just entered.

...

Boom!

On the plaza near the artificial river, a giant sculpture five meters tall, glowing red, came to life and threw a heavy punch towards a superhuman who was already severely injured.

Whoosh!

A strong sound of wind slicing through the air rang out, Diana's figure flickered, and the ice greatsword in her hand directly shattered the giant, saving the superhuman.

Diana grabbed the superhuman by the collar and leaped to a relatively flat area.

"Ice Queen, don't worry about us for now, stop the Summoning Ceremony first!" the superhuman warrior coughed up another mouthful of blood forcefully, and upon seeing who had saved him, he hurriedly spoke.

Diana said nothing, only placing him aside and looking up.

The stone blocks on the ground that had been shattered once again reassembled, glowing with a crimson light, controlled by several Acolytes.

In the distance, a group of Sacrificial Acolytes were holding the Summoning Ceremony, just as Adam had seen before.

At this moment, in order to speed up the process, many of the Sacrificial Acolytes in black robes had begun to commit suicide to forcibly accelerate the Summoning Ceremony.

"Take care of yourself, if you can still move, try to run, your life is the most important."

Diana admonished him, but she was well aware that this was rather unrealistic.

Within the range of sight, there were superhumans and Acolytes lying heavily injured everywhere, it was hard to imagine how many of them would survive.
