National Games: Hang up from the zombie apocalypse

Chapter 3331 Consumption

Augustine grew increasingly curious about Adam.

This afternoon, he passed the assessment for a fifth-tier oracle and officially advanced to the fifth-tier oracle.

The more he investigated Adam, the deeper his suspicions grew.

It's astonishing that a child from an ordinary family could experience such a terrifying increase in strength in such a short period of time.

Something must have happened to him!

If he could figure out what exactly happened, perhaps his strength could be dramatically enhanced?

Augustine has always been very ambitious.

The city lord's two sons are both useless. He is the one most qualified to inherit the city lord's title. Only he can lead Eagle City to a glorious future!

The waiter said, "Young master, the person has been brought here."

"Invite him in quickly."

Augustine composed himself, stood up, and looked at Adam as he was led into the reception room.

Adam's mindset has completely changed in the past two days. Facing Augustine, the heir to the city lord, he does not feel inferior at all. On the contrary, he has a psychological advantage that he doesn't know where he comes from. He looks at him calmly, neither humble nor arrogant, and clasps his hands and says, "Greetings, Young Master Augustine."

Augustine waved his hand, signaling to his servants on either side.

In a short while, Augustine was left with only two bodyguards.

"how did you do it?"

Augustine stared at Adam and said in a deep voice, "Adam, I know your strength very well. It's impossible for you to have improved so much in such a short time, unless you've obtained something, or..."

Adam looked directly at Augustine, then glanced at the two guards beside him.

"Don't worry, they are my guards, loyal only to me. They will protect all my secrets."

Augustine stared at Adam with expectant eyes and continued, "I assure you, your secret will not be known to anyone else. Tell me, how did you do it!"

"Not speaking? Don't think that you can get away with it by not speaking. Your strength has improved so quickly that others will find out sooner or later. Believe me, cooperating with me is the best choice. I'm not afraid to tell you that the people in the academy have already noticed the abnormality of you. If others find out, they won't be as merciful as I am. They will use every means possible..."

Adam frowned slightly. "Are you threatening me?"

"presumptuous!"

One of Augustine's bodyguards roared, drew his longsword, and swung the blade at Adam, intending to teach him a lesson.

Um! ?

The guard was taken aback.

A sixth-tier guard launching a sudden attack at such close range would be extremely difficult to dodge, even for a sixth-tier Oracle!

However, the expected outcome of teaching Adam a lesson did not occur.

The longsword stopped abruptly a short distance from Adam's forehead, unable to advance even an inch further.

Upon closer inspection, an invisible shadow enveloped the longsword, and even rapidly spread along the sword, enveloping the guard.

"Oh no! Protect the young master!"

Before the guard could finish speaking, his body was completely enveloped by shadows, uncontrollably bound by them, and slowly floated into the air. His throat felt like it was being choked by something, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Augustine looked at the scene before him, a bead of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.

His two guards, both of whom were sixth-level guards, were imprisoned and suspended in mid-air without any resistance.

not good!

He underestimated this kid!

He never expected that Adam would be so bold as to actually make a move in the city lord's mansion!

Augustine's heart sank, and he hesitated whether to call for his guards when suddenly a loud boom came from inside his head.

A voice rang out directly in my brain.

Do you also crave power?

what! ?

who!

Augustine was startled and quickly turned around to look around, trying to figure out what was speaking in his mind.

Adam looked at Augustine and said coldly, "What? Scared? Didn't you want to know where my power comes from?"

Augustine's pupils contracted. "It was you? That voice just now was yours?"

“It’s not me, it’s God. You are very lucky. You are the second person to hear God’s voice.”

god! ?

Augustine's pupils suddenly contracted, and his mind went blank for a moment.

How can it be?

Isn't God always high above us?

For example, one of the three gods within the Holy City.

How could it suddenly appear in his mind...?

"Don't believe what's in the textbooks. Just treat him as an Outer God. His power is far more terrifying than that of the gods."

Augustine looked somewhat frightened.

Outer god?

All gods other than the divine race are heretics! Anyone who gets involved with them will be sent to the Inquisition!

"What? Aren't you curious about where my power comes from?"

Adam spoke calmly, placing the burlap sack he had been carrying on his back in front of him. He reached into his backpack, pulled out a low-grade Holy Spirit Gem, and handed it to Augustine. "Didn't you want power? This is a gift from God. Whether you accept this gift is up to you."

Augustine looked at the soul orb that Adam handed him, staring at Adam.

god?

One was the desire for power and status, and the other was the fear of the Inquisition.

Augustine hesitated for a few seconds, but his inner desire for power gradually took over.

Let's take a look!

Is it alright if I give it a try?

Let's see what the so-called power of God really is...

Augustine's hand trembled as he leaned forward slightly.

"Crack!"

The moment my fingers touched the Holy Spirit Gem, a cool sensation filled my hands.

Augustine took a deep breath, and his spiritual energy rapidly poured into the Holy Spirit Gem.

In a mere instant, Augustine's spirit had already bound itself to the Holy Spirit Gem.

So fast? It bound with just this little bit of mental energy?

As Augustine pondered this, trying to sense the situation within the Holy Spirit Gem, a look of disbelief suddenly flashed in his pupils.

what! ?

No way! ?

A terrifying thought suddenly arose in Augustine's mind, and he abruptly activated his mental power.

"boom!"

Spiritual energy was poured in, and a blazing, divine light emanated from the Holy Spirit Gem.

In an instant, more than twenty eighth-tier Netherworld War Souls were summoned from the Holy Spirit Gem and stood in two rows in the hall.

Eighth level!

Without exception, they were all eighth-tier battle spirits!

Augustine felt the spiritual connection between his mental power and the spirit of the warrior, his eyes filled with extreme shock.

These eighth-tier battle spirits are all at his disposal!?

Is this the power of God?!

Although there is a slight lag in controlling the battle spirits, this lag has almost no impact in the vast majority of battles.

The key is consumption!

He was simultaneously controlling more than twenty battle spirits! He didn't even feel how much of his mental energy was being consumed!

Augustine's heart was pounding wildly.

Adam looked at Augustine, and in front of Augustine, turned the sack in his hand over and poured it out with the opening facing downwards.

"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong..."

Instantly, countless Holy Spirit Gems rolled out of the bag, scattering across the hall. (End of Chapter)
