Adrian could tell that Lacey was very proud of her fellow apprentice from the way she talked about him. It was as if Nicholas was the only important thing in her life. He figured that it was love.“Lacey, you say that Nicholas will be back in five days, but you also said Gloria won’t last five days. What are we supposed to do then?” Adrian asked out of worry for Gloria.Lacey made her way to Gloria and took hold of Gloria’s hand. She then checked Gloria’s eyes. After a while, she turned around and said to Adrian, “Nick left me with a way to relieve Gloria’s symptoms before he left. I’ll be treating her for the next five days. Nick will be back by then with the antidote.”Adrian was extremely surprised. He never expected someone could come up with such a thorough plan. He could tell that the apprentice named Nicholas was very confident in himself. Moreover, he was very mysterious. Adrian said, “Your fellow apprentice must be very impressive. What else did he tell you?”Lacey said,

Meanwhile, Hayden said, “Ms. Gloria, Ms. Mia, Lacey is famous around here. She’s known in Bortuton for her good character and the locals love her very much. They would send her heaps of gifts during festivities.”“Is she really all that?” Gloria was astonished. Hayden nodded. “She’s the one who cures most of Bortuton’s ill and sick. On top of that, her charges are low and she refuses to take a penny from the poor. Her generosity is what she’s known for.”Mya tutted and said, “I would never have guessed that such an arrogant and cold woman is actually so kind. Fine, I’ll close an eye to her flaws.”Gloria beamed in response. Half an hour later, Lacey led the group out of the forest. Adrian’s group spent more than an hour on their trek into the forest. With Lacy leading the way, the trek out was shortened by half an hour.There was a pink car parked by the roadside—clearly Lacey’s car. The moment they stepped out of the forest, she said to Adrian, “We’re going to Bortuton.”Adri

Bortuguesa was a paradise. The country was in harmony with the earth and self-sufficient, and the people here were sincere and diligent.As Gloria gazed at the quiet city in the distance, she said enviously, “Bortuton is amazing. Its environment is wonderful and the locals are great too.”“Bortuton’s local delicacies are amazing too. I’ll take you to try some tonight,” said Hayden smilingly.Lacey drove into the city as they chatted, and Hayden followed closely. After about ten minutes, Lacey stopped in front of a clinic and got out of the car.Hayden parked the car and said, “We’re here.”Adrian and the others quickly got out and went up to Lacey. When Lacey entered the clinic, two nineteen-year-old Bortuguesan greeted her, “Ms. Lacey, you’re back.”She nodded and said to the two young men, “Jose, Adao, have you prepared the room as I’ve told you to? Our guests are here.”Jose and Adao nodded and said, “Yes, it’s all ready.”“Great.” Lacey walked further into the clinic. A

Lacey replied, “He’s mentally shaken due to extreme fear. In simpler terms, he’s frightened. But don’t worry, he’ll be fine in a few days.”“Thank you so much, Dr. Lacey,” the woman said gratefully.Lacey smiled at the woman.Nearby, Gloria turned to Adrian and said, “Lacey’s medical skills are impressive. She managed to determine the cause and provide a diagnosis so quickly.”Adrian said, “Yes. She has mastered the essence of Traditional Navian Medicine. Doctors of the past would need to perform an assessment and make careful observations just to come up with a diagnosis. Looks like Nicholas truly has qualities that are worthy of her pride.”“Does that mean there’s hope for me?” said Gloria with a smile. Adrian nodded.Lacey walked back to them and said to Adrian, “I’ve already instructed the pharmacist to prepare two rooms for you guys. You may stay here until Nick gets back with the antidote and is able to treat Gloria.”She then turned to Gloria. “For the next few days, I’

It was unbelievable. Truly unbelievable. Adrian’s desire to meet this Medical Saint grew at this moment. He did not mind about Nicholas possessing a piece of the meteorite, of course. He then followed Jose to the back of the clinic where two rooms had already been cleaned up for guests.Jose showed Adrian and the others to the rooms and said, “Dear guests, this is where you’ll be staying. There are two rooms here. Please make yourself at home.”“Thank you, Jose,” said Adrian with a smile. Jose nodded. “Not a problem. You’re our guests. Come to me if you need anything, anytime. I live here too.”Gloria said smilingly, “Thank you so much.”Jose left them to it.Mya plopped onto one of the beds and dangled her legs over the side. She said to Hayden, “Hey, take a room for yourself. I’ll bunk with Gloria.”Hayden scratched his head. “I won’t be staying, Ms. Mya. You guys go ahead and have a good stay. I’ll make some arrangements for you to taste the local delicacies tonight.”“

The three of them ate in the room and rested after they were done. Lacey knocked on the door at about six o’clock “Are you ready, Gloria? Let’s begin your treatment.” Lacey walked into the room. Gloria inhaled a deep breath. Adrian asked, “Will the process be painful?”Lacey answered, “I’d be lying if I said the treatment will be painless, but it won’t be as painful as you imagine it to be. There will be some slight burning sensations, but I believe Gloria will be able to withstand it.”Gloria nodded. “I’m ready. Let’s begin, Lacey.”“Follow me, everyone,” said Lacey. She walked out of the room and led the way through the clinic.The place was made up of a long corridor with different dispensaries and storage rooms on both sides. They walked to the end of the corridor and found a room. Lacey opened the door and walked in.Adrian and Mya stopped outside. Mya said to Gloria, “Stay strong. You’re going to be fine. Just bear with it and it’ll pass. Good luck.”Gloria nodded and

After about ten minutes of soaking, Gloria’s body adapted to the temperature, and the burning sensation from earlier vanished. She felt as if the medicinal herbs in the bath were seeping into her body through her pores. Then, she noticed she was very relaxed. Gloria’s face was flushed but she felt as if a weight had been lifted off her. Next to her, Lacey was making preparations. She did not speak but would check on Gloria occasionally. About half an hour later, Lacey asked, “How do you feel? How’s the temperature?”Gloria answered, “Not as hot as before.”Lacey beckoned at Adrian and said, “Add more hot water.”Adrian lifted up a pot of hot water that he poured into the tub. The process repeated in this manner for about two hours. Meanwhile, Lacey prepared a fresh tub, pouring in some newly-brewed medicinal herbs. The concoction in this new tub was different from the first one. Lacey hastily said, “Come, get into this. It might hurt, but it’s normal and nothing to worry about

Gloria said, “I hope I can be like you guys. Lacey, will I be able to have children if I’m cured? Will there be any side effects that will affect my bodily functions?”Lacey said, “There will be, and will need two to three years to recover. When you’re fully healed, you can have children, of course. But there is no absolute in everything. We’ll have to wait and see if Nick manages to bring the antidote for you.”Gloria was pleased to hear just still. She smiled at Lacey and said, “Thank you so much. I’m grateful to all of you regardless if I’m cured or not.”Lacey said, “Nick wouldn’t be helping you if you didn’t sacrifice yourself for Navia. He’s traveling to the most dangerous ice cave in Shangland just to find you an antidote. Not even scientists would go to the place.”“Is he at Mount Shangspar?” Adrian asked. Lacey raised her head and glanced at Adrian. “So you know of Mount Shangspar. It’s the coldest place on earth. Nick is traveling to the deepest part of it in search of

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
