While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System
Chapter 256 - Police CaptainBANG
The fire of a gun echoed throughout the academy as the captain cursed his luck for being too late and hoped that nothing too bad had happened.
Meanwhile, Adam was smiling at the officers after calling for Angela and the captain to come out, but soon after, one of the officers out of fear and cautiousness fired a shot at Adam.
He hadn't expected that the officers would actually fire at him, but with his much faster reflexes and speed, he could already see the officer move his finger to pull the trigger.
As soon as he saw that, Adam used the Step Skip Unique Skill to appear behind the officers and struck them all on the back of the neck with a chop to knock them all out as he walked deeper into the precinct.
Rushing around the corner was a tall man in a police uniform that was slightly different to all the others that he had seen and on his arms were many badges.
Looking at the officer's shoulder, Adam recognised the symbol as that of a police captain and smiled as he grabbed the back of his neck.
Despite the height difference, Adam easily pushed the captain down to his knees as he glared at him.
"Where is Angela?" asked Adam.
"Why? I will not let you kill her" refuted the captain.
Adam was surprised by the captain's resolve despite being suppressed as he let him go and smiled at him, amused by his attempt to escape from his grip.
"Let's go for a chat," said Adam as he pulled him up.
Swarming towards the area that they were in, dozens of armed officers, who were alerted by the gunshot, converged on where the captain and Adam were.
"Stand down, it was merely a police drill and there is no need to worry. Take these officers to the infirmary and do not disturb me" ordered the captain as he flattened his uniform and stood up straight.
The captain's bravery and demeanour were surprising, but Adam was in a rush and didn't have time to waste as he glared at the captain, signalling him to hurry up.
"Follow me," said the captain as he quickly led him through the precinct and to his office.
He was only acting confident and normally because he didn't want to shock or worry the officers that were working beneath him, but in reality, the captain was very nervous and was sweating profusely.
Entering his office, the captain allowed Adam to enter, then closed the door and blinds for his office before sitting down in his seat opposite Adam.
"What do you want with Angela?" asked the captain while struggling not to stutter as beads of sweat streamed down his face.
Adam shrugged, wanting to see just how far the captain was willing to go for the sake of Angela.
"I won't let you hurt her, she is like my daughter and even if you are a cultivator, I can still kill you with a gun," he said as he scrambled to withdraw his gun.
Adam chuckled as he replied, "You did hear the gunshot, right? Do you really think you can shoot me?".
Hearing that, the captain began to shake uncontrollably as he realised how futile it was for him to try to threaten Adam, who was recognised by the country's government as a rising and dangerous cultivator.
"Calm down, I am not going to harm or kill anyone. I merely want to talk to her and am planning to cooperate with the police, military and the government. Even after being shot at, nobody has been harmed and I merely knocked them out with minimal force. If I wanted to harm or killing anyone, everyone in this precinct would already be dead" reassured him Adam as his Bloodlust began to soar at the thought.
Adam had become sure that his Bloodlust Characteristic had something to do with evil energy as the aura that his aunt emitted was similar to the one that he was able to emit through the Bloodlust Characteristic, but that didn't upset Adam.
He didn't mind cultivators that used negative energy, but if one couldn't control it or needed to harm innocents that had nothing to do with cultivation, he disagreed with it.
There was some truth behind his aunt's words that resonated with him and he understood why many would do almost anything to increase their power, but it was still a horrible and dangerous way to cultivate.
As long as one cultivated without harming others that had nothing to do with cultivation Adam was fine with it, but if one was involving innocents, Adam would take them out and use them to relieve his Bloodlust.
Killing and fighting were only acceptable against one's enemies, as otherwise it was unprovoked and an evil and sinister act.
Looking at the care in the captain's eyes, it reminded him of his aunt, then the regret and hate that he held towards the Evil Soul manipulating her, returned.
"I don't have time for this and my patience is running out. Hurry up and tell me where she is before I can't hold myself back anymore" hurried Adam.
His patience was starting to run out, but the captain was still unwilling to tell him where Angela was as he replied, "You can tell me what you want to tell her. I am the captain after all".
Just as Adam was about to forcefully get the information that he wanted from the captain, his phone suddenly began to ring.
He had regretted not taking Angela Valdez's number, but at the time he was more worried about making sure that his aunt was fine and dealing with the 5 kidnappers.
Adam had told her to call him the next day, but he hadn't specified what time.
Since she was taking too long to call him, Adam decided to look for her himself and was willing to use force if he needed to, but luckily she called him just as he was about to do so.
