The Greatest Man Alive By Maveric Bowman Chapter 424
The Greatest Man Alive
Chapter 424 Three Experts Natasha had already arrived at the restaurant a long time ago. Today, this restaurant was booked by her at a high price.
A 60-year-old man in a black gown stood beside her, carrying a black bundle on his back. The bundle was about three feet long and looked bulging. It was unknown what was inside.
He was the Great Protector of the Porter family, Edersen Porter. He won the title âSpear Godâ in the Martial Arts world in Emperia City more than twenty years ago.
Edersen said calmly, âMs. Porter, you seem anxious. It is rare to see you like this.â
Natasha couldnât help smiling and said, âEdersen, is that so obvious? I am not in good condition recently.â
Edersen said, âIt doesnât matter. The problem will be solved today. No matter whether he chooses to give in or not, this is over.â
While the two were talking, a young manâs loud laughter came from outside the room. The glasses on the table inside the room were shaking as laughter came into the room. The water inside the glasses was rippling.
âGustave is here.â Edersen twitched his black and white brows and said calmly.
A young man about 5 feet tall came in with a handful of steel balls the size of thumbs in his hand. As he walked, he threw the balls into his mouth and swallowed them.
Natasha was surprised and said, âMr. Mendez, can you digest steel balls?â
Gustave poured all the remaining steel balls into his mouth, swallowed them all like jelly beans, and said with a smile, âMs. Mendez, maybe you donât know that. I have had a little problem since childhood.â
âI always have stomach problems in winter.â
âSo, I have to eat some steel balls from time to time to make myself feel better.â
âThen I will feel much better. I can just vomit them out after Iâm good.â
Natasha couldnât help being stunned. If a normal person swallowed metal by mistake, it would probably require an operation to get it out. Unexpectedly, Gustave swallowed so many steel balls for fun and used them to make him better. It was unbelievable!
âSir, you must be Mr. Edersen Porter, Great Protector of the Porter family and Spear God. I have admired you for a long time. My master always talks about you. He says that you are really good at using spears. If you were in ancient times, you would definitely be a great general.â Gustave bowed to Edersen and said.
In fact, Edersen didnât like Gustave since Gustave was too arrogant. But hearing Gustave talk about his master, Ralph Mendez. he had to show some respect. âIâm flattered. Mr. Mendez is too kind to say so.â
Gustave said with a smile, âI think so too. After all, after all these years, I never heard of you doing anything great though you enjoy such a reputation.â
Edersen was a little irritated since Gustave dared to provoke him as soon as they met.
âIf Mr. Porter has gained a false reputation and has nothing but appearances, then he should go back early so as not to delay me.â Gustave laughed.
Edersen snorted coldly. He patted the bag on his back with his hand. With a slap, the bag split open and things inside were seen.
The tip of a spear was seen first. Then there were several metal sticks.
Edersen waved his hands several times. Then after those slight moves, the sticks were connected to each other with some sounds. After that, the tip fell on the long stick. A spear more than 6 feet long appeared.
There was a saying in the martial arts world: To be an expert in using sabers, it would take a month. To be an expert in using rods, it would take one year. To be an expert in using spears would take a lifetime.
It meant that it needed a long time of practice to be a spear expert. It also indicated that making a good spear stick needed time.
Some people would plant small trees before they began to learn spear skills. Then they would take good care of the small trees every day. When the trees grew up, they would cut the trees down and soak the trees in special potions. After that, the spear sticks they wanted appeared.
The spear stick Edersen used was made of steel. No, fine steel. It was very flexible.
The air conditioner was on in the room. It was warm inside, so mosquitoes and flies could be seen inside.
At this moment, a fly flew over and landed on a hanging painting.
Edersen waved his hand. The stick made up of iron bent into a bow-like arc under his strength. Then the tip pierced into the painting.
It stuck the fly on the painting. The fly was killed.
However, no trace was left on the painting, not even the blood of the fly. It was incredible.
Seeing this, Gustave couldnât help but twitch his brows. Subconsciously, he threw a steel ball into his mouth and swallowed it in order to suppress his shock âIâm convinced. Iâm convinced! Mr. Porter, you deserve the reputation of Spear God!â Gustave applauded repeatedly.
Edersen looked indifferent. He held his spear and said, âIâm wondering what kind of apprentice Ralph has taught, whether he is qualified to join forces with me?â
Since Gustave dared to provoke him. He had to fight back. Or, he would embarrass himself for being looked down on by a young man without fighting back.
Gustave smiled and picked up a glass filled with clear water. He put the glass upside down and held the falling water with his palm.
Then he slightly moved his wrist to shake his palm in a frequency that was almost invisible to human eyes.
The flowing water didnât run down from his palm. Instead, the water gathered in the middle of his palm and formed a small water ball.
Then he spun the water ball a few times. After that, he loosened his hand. The water ball exploded and water flowed out from between his fingers.
âNice! Amazing! Iâm impressed. You are good.â Edersen couldnât help but praise Gustave when seeing this.
As Ralphâs disciple, Gustave was powerful enough.
âNice.â
At this moment, a cold female voice came in.
Both Gustave and Edersen greeted the woman with respect at the same time, âGeneral Perkins!â
It was Jade.
Oneâs reputation could tell a lot of things.
Everyone in the world knew about Jade.
Neither of them dared to question Jade since her records were enough to say everything.
âI know maybe you think we are making a fuss over it. But this is the key. Whether the Porter Group could survive depends on this. We have to be well-prepared in case an accident happens.â
âAlso, we donât necessarily have to do it today.â
âI hope itâs best if we can talk about it.â
Jade looked at Gustave and Edersen and said calmly.
As soon as she came, she became the one in charge.
But Edersen and Gustave, the two arrogant experts, were willing to listen to her.
Gustave couldnât help but think to himself, âSo, sheâs Jade. No wonder my master often mentions her, she is indeed remarkable! A woman like her isnât weaker than any man! Even those great female generals in history would be less powerful than her.â
