Adrian and his gang looked at each other, confused and bewildered. They didn't know what to do.
Charlie had precisely told them to get lost, and they did want to get the hell out of here immediately, but none of them dared to move, feeling that Charlie hadn't finished what he was saying.
It was simply because they didn't understand what Charlie meant.
On the other hand, Charlie wasn't going to let them figure it out either. Just like how Kenneth figured it out, he must let them experience it themselves firsthand. 6
Seeing that the group of men was still standing there, looking around like a bunch of silly folks, Charlie chided fearsomely, "I give you three seconds to get out of here or you can always stay!"
As if he had been pardoned, Adrian waved to the crowd and urged, "Let's go!"
Everyone started to turn to leave, but Warlord and Realm Master were still kneeling on the floor.
They wanted to leave this place very badly, but they couldn’t exert one bit of strength to move.
Initially, there was still some residual strength in their legs that they could barely stand up and hobble
forward, but since they had been kneeling for a long time, their legs were numb to the point of exhaustion that they couldn't even stand up. 5
As they watched everyone leave, the two burly men burst into tears, and Warlord cried out, "Master Adrian, please take us with you!" s
Adrian cursed in frustration, "You two losers! You couldn't kill him, and now you can't even walk?"
Warlord choked, "Master Adrian, I can’t move my legs a t all...If I could stand up, I wouldn’t dare to ask for your help..." 6
