Chapter 357: Forced to Compromise

Henry and the others observed the battlefield from a distance. At this moment, they could see clearly that Adam was just an advantage over the zombie. But still, they could tell that Adam was definitely not doing his best.

"Is he trying to play with the zombie or something?" Sarah could not help but ask. Just like Henry and Adam, she was also quite anxious about the information about where her parents were.

Currently, since there was a military territory present within this city, that implied that if her parents really came over, they might probably be within the military territory.

But then again, that was not a guarantee. After all, who said that a person from the military could not decide to join another territory? Just from the information that she had received about the military territory and about how they were doing things, she was definitely quite worried about her family.

She was not sure if her father had been assigned a task like the one that had been assigned to the group that had been fighting against Trista territory.

At this point, what Vincent had said back then was proven right. It seemed that whoever it was that was commanding the soldiers was definitely not caring about their lives at all. All that he cared about was the benefits that came, even if the soldiers ended up dead.

Had it not been for the fact that currently, Henry and the others were still going to deal with this territory, and look for information about their families, she would have definitely already gone to the military territory in order to look for information about her parents.

"He is not fighting using his own fighting style. But instead, it seems that he is trying as much as possible to make sure that he doesn’t end up killing that zombie. Otherwise, with his ability, he would have definitely been capable of dealing with the zombie a long time ago." Olivia responded to Sarah’s question.

Yes, that was just how it was. It was extremely difficult to be able to capture a person of the same power level alive. But, it was quite easy to kill them, when compared to trying to catch them alive. After all, by trying to catch them alive, the one that was attacking had to restrain themselves.

After hearing what Olivia had said, Sarah also understood. It was true, just looking at the way that Adam was fighting, this was definitely completely against the way that he usually fought. Normally, during his fights, he would be completely reckless. But right now, he was attacking continuously, gaining an advantage. But as long as Jason attacked, Adam would defend or evade the attack.

On the other side of the battlefield, as Adam’s fist approached Jason, it collided with the shockwave blades that had been released by Jason.

The moment that his hand came into contact with the shockwave blades, several injuries immediately appeared on the hand. It was clear that the shockwave blades that had been launched by Jason possessed incredible damage capability.

Jason’s eyes could not help but suddenly narrow. After all, although the shockwave blades that he had launched had actually come into contact with Adam’s hand, and had actually managed to wound him, but the level of the wounds was not something that could be considered fatal for a person of their own level.

In fact, it could basically be considered as several scratches that had appeared on Adam’s hand. There was no deep wound, and even the hand had not been cut off.

Additionally, Jason was completely flabbergasted by the fact that Adam had decided not to retreat. Normally, whenever he attacked using the shockwave blades, Adam would dodge them. But right now, Adam had completely ignored the attack that he had launched.

What kind of fighting style was this? Risking injuries just to injure the opponent? But thinking deeply about the injuries that Adam had suffered, it was clear that they could be completely ignored in the long term process of the battle.

Bang!

Jason did not have much chance of thinking because the fist connected with his chest. The moment that this happened, Jason felt as if he had been suddenly hit by a truck.

He felt the pressure that was being exerted into his body increase. His internal organs suddenly began shifting.

Normally, zombies would have only their brain alive, as for the other parts of the body, they would be completely dead, though they could still be controlled.

But it was completely different for Jason. He was a mutated zombie. And due to that reason, several parts of his body had already regained life. This was also due to the fact that he was currently at the diamond rank, and his entire body had actually regained life. It was just that some parts of his body were not going to function the same way as the humans’ organs would.

So right now, his heart had already regained its life. And other than that, the lungs were also functioning. Due to this attack, he could feel that the pressure that was being exerted on the two organs was immense.

At the same time, several of his chest bones fractured. Then without having a chance of resisting, Jason was blasted backwards. The pain that he was undergoing was something that he had never felt ever since he appeared in this world.

Bang!

As he landed heavily on the ground, Jason found himself having difficulty in breathing. This was one of the weaknesses that he possessed. In fact, he was someone that possessed several features that were like those of humans.

Although it was good because it enabled him to do several things without being easily suspected by humans unless he revealed himself, but still, it was also a disadvantage to him. And right now, it proved right. With him having difficulty in breathing, and the pain that he was undergoing, the heart was also kind of affected because of lack of enough air.

Jason did not stay on the ground for long. Instead, he struggled and got back to his feet. But he had just rose from the ground when suddenly, he detected that danger was approaching.

Without hesitation, he immediately slashed towards the direction that he felt that the danger was coming from.

Bang!

Adam’s fist that had already arrived collided with the blades. Although he suffered injuries once again, but still, he managed to push away the blades. And the moment that the blades were pushed away, another fist was already before Jason.

Bang! Crack!

The fist landed on Jason’s clavicle. The clavicle could not withstand the pressure from the fist. And due to that reason, it immediately broke. The intense pain from the attack made Jason to flinch. At the same time, he was once again launched backwards at an incredible speed.

Due to his left clavicle being broken, he was having difficulty in controlling his left arm. And due to that reason, the arm transformed back into its original form, no longer becoming a blade.

As Jason struggled to get back on his feet, he looked at Adam who was already rushing over once again. At this point, he realized one thing, this youth was definitely crazy. He did not care about the attacks that were being launched towards him (Adam), and simply cared about dealing damage to him.

At this point, Jason had no choice but to agree that he did not have a chance of defeating this madman. This youth was extremely crazy. Moreover, he was not the only one. Even if he somehow managed to defeat Adam, would Henry and the others allow him to leave this place?

"Hold up! I have agreed that I’m going to give you that lady! If you attack me once again, believe me or not, I’m going to give a command for her to be killed." Jason shouted hurriedly.

Adam who had already launched an attack on Jason using the battle axe in his hand was forced to divert the direction of the battle axe, making it land on the side, just beside Jason’s leg.

Adam looked at Jason with his eyes that had already turned blood red. Then, with killing intent still coming out of his body, he said, "You better tell me right now where you kept my sister. Otherwise, if I get to know that anything happened to her, I promise you that I will grant you the most painful death you would ever want to experience."

Jason felt slightly relieved after Adam stopped attacking. At this point, he could not help but feel that his pride had been stepped on. After all, right now, he was on the ground, being looked down upon by a human.

Nevertheless, this was something that was necessary for now. He was the one that was at a great disadvantage right now. But the time that he would get his chance, he would definitely make sure that these humans paid for what they had done to him today.

"Okay. Currently, she has already been taken to my territory. But believe me, I already instructed the zombies that they should not do her any harm. So, right now, she is definitely safe and sound." Jason stated through his gritted teeth.

He felt completely humiliated in this condition. Normally, he was a tyrant. He got what he wanted, and he did not have to beg anyone. But right now, he had no choice but to compromise more than once.

Adam’s eyes finally regained their original color. Then, he looked at the zombie and said in a cold tone, "Take me right now to where she is."

Jason did not waste time and immediately got up from the ground. Then, he looked at Adam and said, "Before we leave this place, I have to get what I want first. Otherwise, even if you kill me, believe me, you will not get your sister."
