Chapter 578 Adamantium
Lamont’s comment caused silence to descend upon the room. Such a possibility wasn’t lost among them, for everyone was familiar with how Tyrone and Oscar usually conducted themselves. Hence, it wouldn’t be a surprise for them to have offended Lord Campbell.
Even then, they still refused to consider such a scenario, as Lord Campbell was just way too powerful for them to deal with. In the event he was really responsible, there was little they could do to retaliate.
“I know what all of you are worried about. The reason I called all of you here is to tell you that you no longer need to fear Lord Campbell.” “Lamont, what do you mean?”
The moment Lamont clapped his hands, a young man in his twenties entered the room. “Let me introduce. This is Fabian Youngblood, the pride of the Youngblood family.”
With an emotionless expression, Fabian looked condescendingly at the representatives of the Ten Prestigious Families as if they were mere insects.
Talbot scoffed, “Lamont, are you telling us that we no longer have to be afraid of Lord Campbell just because of this disciple of yours?”
“That’s exactly what I meant.” “Bullsh*t!” Nonetheless, Lamont wasn’t bothered by Talbot’s response. Instead, he suggested with a smile, “Talbot, if memory serves me right, you’re a Hexa Stella Warrior. Why don’t you spar with my nephew?”
When Talbot threw Fabian a glance, he couldn’t detect an aura from the latter at all. This indicates that he’s either an ordinary man or so powerful that I’m incapable of evaluating the true extent of his power. However, at twenty years of age, how is it possible that he is more powerful than I am?
Talbot responded in a haughty tone, “I’m already in my forties. There’s no glory for me in beating up a kid.”
The smiling Lamont responded, “If you can beat Fabian, Youngblood Group will present you with two safe houses.”
“Are you serious?” Donald’s eyes lit up.
Every one of the ten families was dying to know the secrets behind the safe houses.
After all, Youngblood Group was the only one that owned safe houses in the entire world. If the Campbell family were to receive two, they might be able to produce their own safe houses after spending a few years reverse-engineering the ones they received.
Just that thought alone filled Talbot with excitement. Getting to his feet to stretch his limbs, he said to Fabian, “Kid, please don’t take this personally.”
Fabian still didn’t move a muscle, as if Talbot’s words were nothing but the utterances of a fool.
As two safe houses were now at stake, Talbot couldn’t afford to make a mistake. As a result, he unleashed his War God force field and elevated his power right up to Hexa Stella divine stage.
“Take this!”
Just like a comet, Talbot burst forward to strike. Nevertheless, Fabian didn’t show any intention of defending himself against the attack.
Ding!
A deafening noise rang out, reverberating across the area. It sounded as if Talbot had struck some kind of reinforced steel.
“No, this is impossible!”
Talbot stared blankly in front, his face filled with disbelief.
His fist—thrown with everything he got—had landed exactly on Fabian’s face. Even if Fabian was a Hexa Stella divine stage warrior, taking the punch head-on would have still meant instant death.
However, not only did Fabian take it head-on, but he was also unharmed.
At that moment, his face was entirely covered by a black-colored metal that absorbed the power of Talbot’s punch. That was the reason why he was unscathed. In fact, his body didn’t even budge at all.
“Adamantium! It’s really Adamantium! Why does he have it inside his body? Isn’t it really rare and precious?”
By combining metal alloys with one’s physical body, a humanized weapon was created.
