Chapter 310: Adams, Who Didn’t Like To Joke Around
Even the usually dull Charles began to speak, “Of course.”
Lugh knew that the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly was very repulsed by the brain matter of a dead person. It felt a little wronged.
He touched the head of the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly and praised, “This time, it’s all thanks to you.”
The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly hugged Arne with its six slender legs and rubbed its small head against Lugh’s hand.
No one said anything else. They only looked enviously at Lugh’s Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly.
The growth potential of the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly was only Platinum-rank.
However, sometimes, the value of a pet beast was not determined by its strength.
They were very clear that after Lugh’s Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly awakened its memory cracking skill, its importance was no less than that of a King-level pet beast.
It was even more useful than a King-tier pet.
Unfortunately, they didn’t know that Lugh’s Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly had already reached Emperor-tier potential long ago.
Moreover, it was still advancing toward the legendary G.o.d-tier.
Back in Stone City, Lucy and Lex also had some gains.
They had captured hundreds of ordinary believers brainwashed by the Beast G.o.d Cult, as well as four low-level Beast Masters of the Beast G.o.d Cult.
Not all the members of the Beast G.o.d Cult who were hiding in Stone City had been caught.
Even the Military Headquarters of Stone City had members of the Beast G.o.d Cult.
However, these members of the Beast G.o.d Cult were just a bunch of kittens and puppies.
They wouldn’t amount to much.
Just like Nanyu City, the painters and veterans of the military that Lugh had gotten Adams to find had drawn all the escaped members of the Beast G.o.d Cult and the spies of the military headquarters who were hiding in Stone City.
Adams followed the drawing to capture them. It was not dark yet, and the entire military department of Stone City had been cleaned up.
He also distributed the remaining remnants of the Beast G.o.d Cult.
He asked the city guards to hurry up and search.
Adams also ordered people to hang the bodies of the members of the Beast G.o.d Cult on the city wall.
Lugh did not say anything about this hobby.
As long as Adams was happy.
Under the city wall, a few people who were watching the show quickly gathered.
“Who are they?”
“Why are there people hanging them up again?”
…
A city guard said, “These are people from the Beast G.o.d Cult. As long as they are from the Beast G.o.d Cult, they will be hung on the city wall.”
After many civilians heard the soldiers’ words, none of them dared to say anything about them.
At the same time, they decided that if they encountered the Beast G.o.d Cult in the future, they would hide far away.
…
Stone City’s Guardian Adams held a celebratory c.o.c.ktail party for Lugh.
At the c.o.c.ktail party, only a small number of Stone City’s military higher-ups were introduced Lugh.
“Don’t look down on Lugh just because he’s young. He’s only sixteen years old.” Adams laughed loudly. “Think about what you were doing when you were sixteen years old.”
A paunchy soldier stood out and said, “When I was sixteen years old, I had a dream that I had to pee. When I woke up, my blanket was wet.”
The entire party burst into laughter.
Although the members of the emergency team did not enter the party, no matter how Adams treated them, they were treated with good wine and meat.
Adams personally toasted a gla.s.s of wine to Lugh, and Lugh drank it as well.
The wine that Adams brought out was the best in the world.
The ingredients for making wine were the seeds of plant-type Fierce Beasts, just like the eggs of Fierce Beasts.
The smell was rich and fragrant.
After drinking, apart from being a little spicy, the taste was mellow and soft, with a hint of sweetness returning.
After drinking it for a long time, this kind of wine was very good for the body of ordinary people.
Even Lugh, who didn’t drink much, liked the taste of this wine.
Perhaps it was because he had a Berserk Bear on him, but the alcohol didn’t affect him at all.
The other upper echelons of Stone City began to toast him, and Lugh also drank all of it.
Soon, the upper echelons of Stone City all crouched under the table.
There were only a few people left standing.
The one who drank the most was still Lugh.
There were too many people toasting him.
Turner and the others were all involved.
“Captain Lugh, that’s a huge amount.”
“Adams’ wine is good. It tastes very refreshing.”
Adams smiled. “I ordered someone to brew this wine. If Captain Lugh likes it, I’ll give you a jar of wine.”
“Thank you, Guardian Adams. I’ll accept the gift.”
Adams was responsible and powerful. He was also a senior in the Emergency Response Team.
There was no need for Lugh to reject a small gift.
“What’s there to write about? It’s just a jar of wine.”
Adams smiled and asked, “It’s true that Captain Lugh doesn’t stay in Stone City to rest for a few days.”
Lugh refused, “There’s no need. The mission is urgent and I just happened to get some important information. I want to go all out and uproot the influence of the Beast G.o.d Cult that has infiltrated the southwest region.”
“I really envy Turner and the others. If I wasn’t the Guardian, I might have followed you to do it.” Adams drank the wine and said with envy, “Clearing the Southwest Region of the Beast G.o.d Cult is very exciting to imagine.”
Turner stood at the side and smiled. “Waist, I’ll be the Guardian of Stone City. You’ll carry out the mission with Captain Lugh?”
“Turner, are you sure?” Adams put down the gla.s.s of wine, and his gloomy face was suffused with an excited smile, “Today, Captain Lugh will be the witness. As long as you want to be the Guardian, I’ll immediately gather all the troops tomorrow morning and announce that you’re the Guardian. I’ll also write a resignation letter to the military. I’ll follow Captain Lugh to eliminate the Beast G.o.d Cult. I’ll help you complete it. How about this?”
As Adams spoke, he walked toward Turner.
It was obvious that he was serious.
Turner was frightened by Adams. He quickly waved his hand and said, “Adams, I was joking.”
“Joking?” Adams’ face immediately darkened. “You said you were joking with me?”
The atmosphere in the room instantly turned cold.
“Guardian Adams!” Lugh shouted
Adams’ gloomy face instantly disappeared, and a smile bloomed on his face.
He smiled and said, “Captain Lugh, I’m also joking with Turner.”
“Okay.” Lugh nodded and didn’t say anything else. “We’ll be leaving tomorrow. We’ll be going back today.”
“Okay, then I won’t keep you.”
Adams directly summoned the military vehicle and personally got on it. He sent Lugh and the others to the door of the guest house before leaving.
He gave Lugh enough courtesy.
When they returned to the guest house, Lugh asked, “What’s the matter with Adams?”
“Some people can’t joke with him because he’ll take it seriously,” Lucy said from the side. “It’s obvious that this Guardian Adams doesn’t really want to be a Guardian.”
Daler smiled. “Turner offended Adams.”
Charles also laughed. “But it’s not a big deal. Adams is not a petty person in an emergency.”
“I haven’t seen Adams for a long time. I’ve forgotten his personality.” Turner sat on the sofa helplessly and glanced at Lucy, “Adjutant Lucy is right. Adams is stubborn and withdrawn. He never jokes with anyone, and he doesn’t like to be joked with. He doesn’t really want to be the Guardian of Stone City.”
Lugh asked curiously, “What’s going on?”
The others looked at Turner curiously as well.
Turner was the most senior of the three Star Glory Beast Masters. He was also very popular in the Emergency Response Team, and knew many things that others didn’t know.
“Adams said that year that he didn’t like being the Guardian. He liked the feeling of doing missions in the Emergency Response Team. He said he liked the busy, fulfilling, and exciting life.”
“Then why did he become the Guardian of Stone City?”
“Of course, it was because of Captain Bania.”
Turner said, “Captain Bania wanted Turner to be the Guardian of Stone City. Stone City’s strategic position is very important. It is one of the important gateways in the Southwest. This requires a strong, ruthless, and strong character to guard it. Adams was chosen at that time.”
“At the beginning, he was unwilling. He directly fell out with the leader of the Special Operations Team. It was only after Captain Bania came forward that he agreed.”
“Looking at the situation of Stone City, you can see that there are only a few hundred Beast G.o.d Cult followers in the entire stone city.” Turner praised, “The Southern part of the city has been infiltrated. This is the transit point for the Beast G.o.d Cult to enter the Southwest Region. With just a few hundred ordinary followers of the Beast G.o.d Cult, do you think they are strong?”
