"Huh? Are you okay?"

Ellie sneered and roared at this time, then flew in front of Adam. Under Adam's puzzled gaze, she gently pushed Adam with her little hand.

"Boom!"

After being pushed by Ellie, Adam lost his balance and sat down on his bed. Even his expression became stiff.

"What about now? Do you still dare to say that you are fine?"

Ellie said, looking at Adam angrily.

Although Adam's external injuries seemed to be healed, how could internal injuries heal so quickly? As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, but this was only one day. Even if his recovery ability was strong, he couldn't torture himself like this, right?

"I told you, I'm fine!"

Adam replied directly to Ellie, and then tried to stand up again.

However, angry Ellie pounced on Adam and threw him onto the bed.

Adam, who felt the impact, also let out a muffled groan for the first time.

"Look at you, you're alright? Even I can knock you down, where else can you go in this state?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"

At this time, everyone who heard the noise opened the door and looked over, and saw Ellie lying on Adam at a glance.

"Wow~"

"Is Ellie so bold?"

"What the hell is this! Dirty! Filthy!"

The three people who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, but Ellie, who was already angry, ignored it completely.

Normally, not just one Ai Li, even ten Ai Lis together wouldn't be able to push Adam. But this time, Adam couldn't even stand after just a push. This showed just how weak Adam was.

"Step aside."

"No!"

Faced with Adam's request, Ellie always refused to agree.

The people outside were even more confused when they saw this scene.

"What the hell is going on? Why did they start arguing out of the blue?"

"It looks like that guy wants to go out."

"He was seriously injured yesterday, and he's going out today. I don't know if he's a pervert or has a mental problem."

"Oh~ this is the only way."

Facing Ellie who was still pressing on him, Adam then slowly exhaled.

At this moment, Ellie felt her body gradually floating up. It was Adam who used the power of the Herrscher to make Ellie's gravity disappear.

"I'm just going to train. Don't worry about me. I'll probably be back in the afternoon."

After saying that, Adam also sat up from the bed and limped out of the house.

"Come on, Celine, Bella, I need you to exercise with me today."

Adam said this to Bella and Celine at this time. Although they were very worried when they saw Adam's staggering gait, judging from Adam's expression, he would not give up his decision.

Instead of waiting for Adam to run out by himself, the two of them would follow him. At least if they encounter danger, they will still be able to fight.

"Um, Ellie, what happened?"

As Adam walked further away, Paddo walked into the house and asked Ellie.

"Wuwuwu! Adam! You bastard! I've clearly made up my mind! What on earth do you want? You always act so recklessly. Do you know how worried I am? Bastard! Idiot! A bastard who causes trouble for everyone!"

It would have been fine if Paddo didn't ask, but when she did, Ellie felt even more aggrieved and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

This scene made Paddo even more confused.

"Hey, don't cry! Wait a minute, what happened? Why did you become like this just after getting up?"

Paddo didn't know much about what happened between the two of them, but she always felt that Adam's attitude today was very strange.

He'd been dragging everyone along for training in the past, so why was he just leaving so abruptly today? And while seriously injured, that is.

Although Paddo looks stupid, she is actually not stupid. Instead, she is very sensitive to these things in the outside world.

Now she always felt that Adam was a little anxious.

Chapter 64: Adam's Silence

In a certain layer of the paradise, there was a strong wind, at least a force eight typhoon, which was constantly devouring everything around.

But as the wind gradually died down, Adam fell from the highest point of the wind.

If Bella hadn't appeared in time and caught Adam, I'm afraid Adam would have fallen heavily to the ground. And given his current physical condition, he would probably have suffered at least a broken bone.

When Bella brought Adam to the ground, Adam's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.

At this time, he had been exercising his power for more than eight hours without even a minute's rest. In Xilin's view, such exploitation was simply cruel to himself.

"Hey! What the hell is wrong with you today? Why don't you say a word? And why are you pushing yourself so hard?"

Xilin couldn't help but ask Adam about what was wrong with him today.

Whether in terms of training or condition, Adam's condition today can be described as extremely wrong.

If it were under normal circumstances, Adam would have argued with Xilin for a while, but today, Adam answered Xilin with silence. He just stood up quietly and went to exercise again.

"Your Majesty, what happened to Adam? Why does he seem so anxious?"

At this time, Xilin turned back into a puppet, and looking at Adam's appearance, her heart was filled with worry.

In fact, everyone was probably worried about Adam today. It wouldn't be right to say that Adam was afraid of the Herrscher of Corrosion. After all, Adam's attitude towards Corrosion had already been made clear, hadn't he? There was no reason for him to be so anxious now.

"Your Majesty, Adam has been using his power for such a long time. Will anything happen?"

Seeing Adam practicing the power of wind again, Bella couldn't help but ask Xilin this.

"There's definitely a problem! Normally, using power for eight hours non-stop would be exhausting, right? And it's the power of wind, the most difficult elemental power to control."

Xilin was also very worried about Adam's condition. Among the elemental powers, the power of wind might be the most dangerous for humans.

For example, the Herrscher of Void's space-time manipulation, the Herrscher of Thunder's electromagnetic force, the Herrscher of Ice's temperature, the Herrscher of Rock's gravity, and the Herrscher of Fire's molecular motion, even if these powers are not well controlled, their power will not be too great, and the damage caused to the user will not necessarily be great.

However, the power of the Herrscher of Wind is to control all fluids. Even the most basic use of wind can accidentally cause a terrible typhoon like what just happened.

Even for Adam, if the air around him was accidentally sucked out, he might suffocate to death.

Although the power of the Herrscher of Wind may not be the strongest among the elemental Herrschers, the difficulty of operating it is the highest.

Adam insisted on exercising for eight hours even though he was in poor condition. As you can imagine, this was simply courting death.

If Bella and Celine hadn't been watching, Adam might have killed himself several times.

At this moment, in front of Adam, there was a small tornado that was slowly taking shape.

This time the tornado was much smaller than the previous one, and Adam had made great progress in controlling the strength.

However, soon, the tornado began to grow bigger again, and it was still showing a trend of expanding.

Seeing this, Adam quickly cut off the control of the power and cleared the tornado in front of him.

"Why is it still not working? What's the problem?"

Adam looked at the tornado that dissipated again, and his anxiety intensified again.

In fact, after hearing what Ellie said last night, Adam was already very anxious.

Even though Adam said that the worst that could happen was that he would run away, in fact, Adam also cared a lot about Ellie and everyone.

Just like Ai Yi before, he said that he thought Ai Yi was a burden, but in fact, when Ai Yi got into trouble, he rushed there first.

For someone who has survived the apocalypse for a long time, loneliness is actually more terrifying than the apocalypse itself.

The food he ate was always cold canned food, and when he slept, all he could hear was his own breathing and the roars of the assassins and the Honkai beasts outside.

Sometimes, Adam also doubted himself, wondering how he could endure such loneliness before meeting Ai Yi.

How can we say that humans are social animals? As the saying goes - I can endure darkness if I have never seen light.

How could Adam, who had experienced the warmth of everyone, turn back into the lone wolf he once was?

It is because there are things that we care about that we want to protect them at all costs.

Adam remained silent about what Ellie said last night. He also never said anything about everyone's concern, but expressed his attitude through his own actions.

Adam knew that even if he used all his means now, it would be difficult to harm the Corrosion Ruler.

After all, as someone who could annihilate all the Heroes, she was the strongest bug in the Land of Eden. You know, the top Heroes all had the power to face the Herrscher alone and kill him single-handedly.

In comparison, the current Adam pales in comparison even when facing the transformed Herrscher of Wind.

However, even so, Adam didn't want to give up.

He didn't know what the opportunities outside were that Alicia was talking about, nor did he know what the consequences would be if he faced the Herrscher of Corrosion.

But Adam knew that if he lost and Ellie made that choice, it would mean that in this world, Ellie, Celine, and Bella might all be killed by the Herrscher.

Even if the Herrscher of Corrosion is defeated in the end, without everyone, what meaning will it have for Adam?

It doesn't matter to him whether the Herrscher is dead or alive. For him, the only important thing is to protect everyone.

Sometimes silence does not mean that you have nothing to say, but that you don’t know how to express yourself.

"Adam, come on."

At this time, Bella and Xilin were silently behind Adam, watching Adam condense hurricanes again and again, and they couldn't help but pray in their hearts.

Although Adam didn't say anything, they could now more or less feel that Adam's desperate efforts must have something to do with them.

Adam was really keeping his promise to them.

Chapter 65: Wendy Awakens

After defeating the Herrscher of Wind, another week passed, during which time Adam finally adjusted his condition to his peak, even surpassing his level during the battle with the Herrscher of Wind.

However, what is worrying is that during this week, Wendy showed no signs of waking up and was so calm that it was a little scary.

If all her vital signs were not completely normal, everyone would probably think that Wendy was dead.

Logically speaking, as a Herrscher, Wendy should have recovered at least half of her injuries, if not all of them. After all, Adam just sucked away all the Honkai energy in her body. There's no reason why she wouldn't wake up yet, right?

But this time, even Sirin, who arguably understood the Herrscher best, didn't know why Wendy couldn't wake up. They could only guess that Adam had drained too much of her power at once, leaving her severely exhausted, like a cell phone with less than 1% battery left. She probably wouldn't wake up until she regained her strength.

However, no one knew how long it would take for Wendy to wake up, and since everyone was busy with other things, they basically just left her lying in bed. At most, they would take turns watching over her.

The reason why Wendy couldn't wake up was not only because too much of her own power was sucked away, but also because there was something wrong with Wendy's own spirit.

At this moment, Wendy was constantly recalling all her experiences in her life in her mind.

Wendy was a student of Saint Freya, and could even be said to be one of the first students to graduate. Her level of excellence was one of the best in the entire Tianming.

As Theresa's proud student, Wendy obtained the qualification of A-level Valkyrie right after graduation and went to the Oceania branch to serve as a Valkyrie.

Originally, she should have had a bright future, but her high adaptability to Honkai energy became her nightmare.

Because of her outstanding talent, she was chosen by Otto as an experimental subject and became a vessel for the desire for gems.

From that day on, the former genius fell. In the Australian branch, there was no longer that lively and active girl. Instead, there was only a useless person who was confined to a wheelchair, unable to even move around, and was looked down upon by everyone.

As dazzling as Wendy once was, as humble as she became when she fell to the bottom.

Just like Xiao Yan in Doupo, as a genius, he was the pride of everyone, but when he lost his power, he became the laughing stock of the whole clan.

During this time, Wendy was treated coldly, but she couldn't refute it.

Even the strongest spirit would be shaken by such torture.

"Why am I being laughed at by them? It was me who sealed the Gem of Desire. Am I not a hero?"

"It is my duty to protect humanity, but why is it that humans are the ones who hurt me?"

"Humans, is there really any need to protect us?"
