The Beast Goblin King's slash to Adam's chest was fast and powerful, but Adam only moved back slightly to reduce the damage that his chest plate took.
He was confident in the capability of his armour and was sure that it could sustain the attack, so wanted to test out the power and speed of the Beast Goblin King's attack while also testing out how strong his armour was.
There were deep claw marks in the armour and it had lost quite a lot of durability, but it hadn't managed to break through just like Adam had expected.
Adam was unsure what material the chest plate that he had purchased from the system was made out of, but it was stronger and tougher than any metal that Adam had come across in reality.
It also enhanced his resistance, speed and strength by a few points, and yet it seemed as though the Beast Goblin King would only need a few slashes to completely rip it to shreds and Adam relying on his equipment was a stupid plan.
