Hand Of God

Chapter 50 I want to join Orienta

"Join us? We can play together with three people," Adam politely suggested.

"No, no, remember what you promised, to join Orienta!" Diana hurriedly left as if escaping.

The day passed leisurely, and soon it was time for the students to choose their universities.

Adam played games all day, but others were not like that.

Each student weighed the pros and cons of the different universities during that day, and the universities were also preparing various preferential conditions to attract students they had their eyes on during the trial.

Of course, everyone knew that Adam was definitely the target of all top-eight universities.

Thomas still had the same mature and serious look.

Clark sat in the chair with a determined expression.

The other universities also made their preparations.

And in this process, there was something very unusual.

Thomas didn't know why, but he was paying extra attention to security today, sending out almost all his accompanying personnel.

And the scope was extremely broad; almost all the combatants he brought were dispatched for patrols.

Around the artificial river, the small square, and even the residential area, there were figures of superhumans everywhere.

"Hey, Thomas, you seem a bit off today," said Clark, sitting in his chair and looking puzzled as he asked Thomas beside him.

"Although necessary security measures are essential, this seems a bit excessive, don't you think? Do you have any premonitions?"

The leaders of the top-eight superhuman universities were all present, but only Thomas held the position of president, while the others were vice presidents.

The reason was twofold: on one hand, Thomas had established the trial rules, and on the other hand, he was something of a mischievous old man.

Despite his formidable strength, he didn't manage much, leaving the affairs of Orienta University to be handled by the vice presidents, as his presence there was rather redundant.

"Hehe, it's better to be safe than sorry, and today's situation is indeed special," Thomas said.

"Thanks to Adam a few days ago, he killed that group of Acolytes and stopped the summoning ceremony."

"Otherwise, if we hadn't been there and the Deity had descended, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Clark nodded, finding the reasoning sound.

But he still felt it was a bit of an overkill and said, "Now that we're here, right?"

"Those bastards, would they dare to provoke us again?"

"Not necessarily," Thomas replied.

As they were talking, many students entered.

The group immediately became serious, preparing for the possible arrival of students.

The rule for selecting a university was as follows: students could freely choose to enter any university they wished—this was the privilege of those with assessment-free admission spots, and it was a recognition and respect for their talents.

The leaders of each university also brought assistants to promote the facilities of their respective universities and attract students.

Another scenario was when a student was particularly valued by some university leaders during the trial for their exceptional talent. The university would then offer various additional favorable conditions to actively recruit the student.

Clearly, the most suitable candidate for this clause this year was Adam.

And coincidentally, Adam was just walking into the hall at that moment.

Seeing that familiar, lazy figure, Clark immediately sat up straight, as did the other university leaders.

After learning what Adam had done yesterday, he regretted not continuing to watch.

But at the same time, he was overjoyed and even more determined to have Adam on his side.

Although he had lost the bet to Diana, if he could get Adam, all those things would be of no consequence.

Adam didn't look at the surrounding students or the assistants introducing the universities.

He walked straight up to the leaders, and just as Clark was about to say something with a smile, Adam said:

"Hello, President Freud, I want to join Orienta."

"Alright, welcome aboard," Thomas stood up and spoke as if he had expected it.

Clark: ??? Do I seem a bit redundant here?

Seeing that the two were about to shake hands, Clark quickly stood up and stopped them:

"Wait a minute!"

Adam was startled by the loud shout and looked puzzled at the seemingly unserious middle-aged man in front of him.

"I'm telling you, kid, you might not know the rules. You're not like the others; you've done well in the trial."

"Usually, each university will offer you various favorable treatments, and then you can choose one, like our Dimotelin. Come to us, and you can name your conditions!"

Clark said all this in one breath, as if he was afraid Adam would run away.

"Oh, I see, thanks, but I promised Diana that I would join Orienta."

So hasty?!

Hearing this reason, Clark almost bit his tongue.

"Just because of a woman? Alright, although this woman is indeed extraordinary."

Clark's mind raced, and he stood up, walking over to Adam.

"You might not fully understand, Dimotelin really has abundant resources."

"And," he said, putting his arm around Adam's neck like a good bro and whispering:

"And this old man is very stingy. I'm telling you, if you join Orienta directly like this, he'll definitely give you fewer benefits."

Adam didn't expect this, and just as he was about to speak, Thomas also stood up and pulled Clark away.

"Don't speak ill of others behind their backs."

"I'll also give you preferential benefits. I'll give you three hundred hours of the simulation training environment, plus one hundred pure energy crystals."

"What do you think?"

Adam didn't listen much to Thomas yesterday, so he didn't understand these things and asked:

"What are those?"

Thomas: "Nothing much, you can think of them as materials for superhumans to enhance their strength."

"Is that all?! You have the nerve to say that!" Clark jumped out again, "I'll give you double, and on top of that, you can make other requests."

Adam turned his head and looked at Thomas.

Although he had decided to join Orienta, he might as well get more benefits if he could.

Thomas had no choice but to say:

"I can also offer you double, and you can come to me anytime if you need help."

"Money?"

"What?" Thomas didn't understand.

"Money, right? Are there any rewards? And what about the reward for stopping the summoning ceremony yesterday? Where's the reward?"

Adam spoke very bluntly, without any embarrassment.

Thomas was a bit at a loss for a moment before saying:

"Regarding the summoning ceremony, it needs to be reported to the UHG to give you the reward. As for the money, how much do you want?"

"$300,000."

"Deal!"

After saying that, the old man and the young man shook hands.

Clark had a lot more to say, but it all got stuck in his throat, and he finally shook his head helplessly.

It's over, he still couldn't outsmart the old fox.

And he also realized that Adam was probably determined to go to Orienta.

Adam held that rough hand and activated his superpower again.

Although he had copied it before, he always felt that there was something wrong with Thomas's ability, so even if it was a waste of a day's opportunity, he had to try.

[Replication successful...]

A voice sounded in his mind, and at the same time.

"President Freud! Get ready to evacuate! Ah!"

A shrill cry came, and a figure covered in blood rolled and crawled in from outside the door!

[Replication successful, acquired B-rated superpower - Rapid Healing!]

[Automatically upgrading superpower rating.]

[Superpower rating increased, superpower evolved - Demigod's Body.]

[Description: Rapid healing from injuries, unaffected by Deities' aura, immune to toxins!]

Indeed!

There's definitely something off about Thomas!

He doesn't just have one superpower; he's a superhuman with multiple abilities!

However, Adam didn't have time to examine the superpower he had obtained. The person who rushed in through the door caught his attention.
