Unfortunately for them, Inferno, Nimbus, and Simoom failed to notice Adrian’s smirk. Given their intelligence, they would have realized what he was planning.
Adrian was not an invincibilis powerhouse and was still stuck at being half a step away.
He did not possess an endless supply of physical strength like that of an invincibilis fighter either.
However, he had more than enough power to execute these weaklings from the Order of the Reverence.
Inferno and his two companions were too powerful, and they were standing right next to the Falcon Squad. If Adrian were to take the initiative to attack Inferno, the Falcon Squad could easily get injured in the process.
He would not be able to trap all of them at one go either.
Instead, Adrian wanted to lure the crowd to the edge of Rowling Island by pretending to be weakened. He would definitely be able to trap all the enemies at one go after moving away from the squad.
Even with all his physical strength, Adrian had never been a brainless, reckless brute.
“Don’t retreat! The man’s exhausted! Gang up on him and kill him!” Inferno let out a sharp howl and ordered the remaining club members to fight to the death.
At last, they had also noticed that Adrian had weakened substantially.
They were pleasantly surprised. Moreover, they noticed that Inferno, Nimbus and Simoom were coming to join the fight, so their panic and despair vanished completely. They were filled with excitement and bloodlust.
Rather than retreat, they advanced and launched counterattacks at Adrian!
They continued shouting.
“Let’s go, fellow members!”
“Sir Inferno is right! The commoner is already getting exhausted, so it’s our chance to seek revenge!”
“He’s half a step away from invincibilis. I’m going to eat his brain so I can improve my skills!”
“I’m taking his left hand.”
“I’m taking his right foot!”
“Hah-hah-hah-hah, let’s kill him…”
Meanwhile, the remaining club members were bursting with enthusiasm as they began to fight back Milos.
Adrian had no choice but to acknowledge that these people managed to exert a powerful force in an instant that made him feel slightly threatened.
He decided that he would continue his act by assuming an anxious, flustered expression, and his face turned ghastly pale. He turned around and ran in the other direction, as if he was trying to escape.
The numerous club members were even more convinced that he was certainly exhausted after noticing his reaction. He seemed to be running away.
“He’s running!”
“Don’t let him escape! Let’s go after him. We must catch up to him and encircle him!”
“This d*mned boy killed so many club members, so we’re going to kill him for sure!”
“That’s right. We’re going to eat his flesh, gnaw on his bones, and drink his blood!”
They were unusually savage, like demons from hell. Let alone children, even other fighters would be startled to tears by the sight of them.
Simoom moved the fastest and was the most powerful of all the club members there. He caught up to Adrian in the blink of an eye!
“Trying to run? Don’t even think about it!” he sneered and said in a ghastly tone.
From his point of view, Adrian was already a dead man.
Moreover, Adrian was valuable prey. He would eat him raw after beating him to death. On the other hand, Adrian was half a step away from invincibilis state. The act of eating him would certainly be highly beneficial!
