The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 658

Even though Caelum's men were scared of Tom's strength, they charged forward to gang up on him anyway.

Sherry and Cecilia grew anxious. Despite Tom's jaw-dropping display earlier, he was now up against 40 men. They were worried he couldn't hold his own against them.

The two women were terrified. Their fate rested in Tom's hands.

Naturally, the men dared not let their guards down. They now knew Tom was no ordinary fighter. One false move, and they would all go down.

No matter how strong Tom was, it was still challenging for him to go up against a crowd of 40 men who were surrounding him.

Expression darkening, Tom wasted no time. He balled his fists and punched the first two men who came at him.

Then, he grabbed the metal bats from them and started attacking the others.

Low thuds mixed with agonized cries rang out all around.

Still holding the knife, Miranda wanted to help, but she didn't join the fight. She knew she wouldn't be of any help and might even end up distracting Tom if she needed him to rescue her. Thus, it was better for her to stay put.

Soon, 20 of the 40 men had been defeated.

Sherry and Cecilia were stunned and delighted to find that even 40 men couldn't stop Tom.

Meanwhile, Caelum also noticed that things were going south. He finally realized he had underestimated Tom.

If this continued, all of his men would be utterly defeated.

Still, Caelum didn't rush things. He bided his time and waited for the right opportunity to deal a crushing blow on Tom.

He could tell that even he might not be able to defeat Tom if they fought head-on.

When Caelum saw Tom was engaged in a fight with some of his men, he swiftly charged forward and launched a kick at him.

Caelum was a tier-three expert. While that was enough to handle an ordinary fighter, he could tell that Tom wasn't any less powerful than he was.

Thus, he relied on his ultimate move—the thunderbolt kick!

Caelum was confident he could take Tom down with it.

Tom noticed Caelum's attack, but he leaped forward without panicking.

He couldn't believe Caelum was trying to take him down with a kick. What a joke!

Tom learned martial arts from an eternal grandmaster who was an expert in attacks involving the legs, and he picked up a few tricks, too.

One of the moves he learned was called the shadowless kick. It involved kicking so quickly that the enemy couldn't even see the attack.

Tom decided to let Caelum get a taste of his strength.

Caelum's thunderbolt kick was no slouch, of course. The attack was terrifying enough to make a person quake in fear.

However, Tom wasn't afraid as he aimed a kick at Caelum as well.

The fighters working for the Jessops knew just how powerful Caelum was. No one ever managed to defeat him once he brought out the thunderbolt kick.

They couldn't believe Tom was going to fight Caelum head-on. In fact, they were sure he was going to be crippled by the kick.

In an instant, the two men clashed in the air with a forceful blow, stirring the wind around them. Everyone had a hard time keeping their eyes open.

The crisp sound of bones breaking was followed by an anguished howl, and Caelum went flying backward as if he had been shot out of a cannon.
