The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1591
Adrian gazed at the crowd. Everyone exchanged glances. Then, some youngsters and adults, both men and women, stepped forward. Although they were still unsure of what had happened, they knew those who were left behind and weak would only be hurt further. They needed to stand together, and they needed a strong leader to guide them to a better life. They yearned to rectify their lives, and they knew that they would have hope as long as they were still alive.There were about able men and women among the three hundred prisoners, and they were all very calm at this moment. Even Elayne stepped forward, hoping to do her part for the world despite only being an elementary school teacher. A few elderly were getting up as well. When Adrian said upon seeing this, "Veterans above fifty years old, please form a second line and contribute however you can. As for the sick and injured, I'll help you all find a new home to settle down in."Everyone remained silent. He took a deep breath and continu

Adrian’s expression became serious. "Students? How many?""Most of them were killed by monsters or vanished during the reset. There are six left. The oldest among them is twelve. I had them hide in the storeroom when the chaos began and came to Gold Haven to get help, but I was captured by Anatoly.""How many days has it been since then?""Two days. They only have a large barrel of water to live off of.""Padraig!" Adrian called out.Padraig came over and asked, "Yes, sir?""Pick out ten men and follow me to Rivik Village immediately. We're going to save the children trapped in the elementary school there.""But, sir…"Adrian knew what Padraig was about to say, but he could not give up on the children. The chances of them being alive were slim, but there was a chance nevertheless."Oliver, have our men search for instant concrete and some rebars. I want you to form a wall at all the city entrances. Also, increase the height of the city perimeter walls to prepare for the monste
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1593
Everyone scrambled to contribute as Adrian and the others headed toward Rivik Village. The road to the village was narrow. Coupled with the darkness, it was difficult for the trailer to travel at full speed. They were now racing against time—against the Grim Reaper.With Gold Haven’s perimeter walls being swiftly reinforced, Adrian focused on getting to the school as quickly as he could. Along the way to the village, he saw monsters rushing toward Gold Haven. The monsters seemed to be swarming toward the city as though they were under orders. This went against their mental capabilities. "Sir, the monsters are moving toward Gold Haven. Don't you think it's strange they know to go there when they’re just mindless monsters?” Padraig asked as he watched the monsters.Adrian sighed. "They're being controlled. The Creator sent them an order to destroy Gold Haven.""What? He's controlling them?" Padraig asked in shock. Adrian nodded. "He has exhausted much of his powers by resetting th

"The most important thing is to keep yourself safe. All right, we don’t have much time. Get in." Adrian got back into the trailer after giving his orders. "Yes, sir.”After everyone got back in, Padraig clenched his jaw and stared at the school while starting the engine. "Hold on, everyone. This is going to be a bumpy ride."As its engine revved, the trailer charged down the hill toward the school. The sound attracted the monsters' attention, and some of them began running toward the trailer. Padraig tensed up as they broke through the school's main gates. He killed the engine after sending a few monsters in the gym flying. Padraig yelled, "Get out and form a perimeter! We have to defend the trailer from those monsters! Elayne, I need you to stay here!"Everyone quickly got out, and Adrian rushed toward the storeroom. A gorilla monster swung its giant ax at Adrian. In return, he stabbed Dragonbane through the monster’s heart. He continued to dash toward the storeroom as the othe

Meanwhile, six twelve-year-old students huddled inside the storeroom. Their consciousness was fading. They would not be alive for much longer.The gunshots woke up one of the girls wearing a ponytail. Her name was Tori Queens, and she was one of the older kids set to enter middle school the following year.When Tori heard the gunshots, she said, "Guys, wake up. Something's happening outside."The students woke up and weakly looked at their surroundings, only to find they were still inside the dark storeroom. Over the past two days, they had been waiting for Elayne to save them, but she was nowhere to be seen. "What is it?""Is something happening?""I think I hear gunshots outside." They became excited when they confirmed that it was indeed gunshots. Dustin Faust, a slightly chubby boy, cried, "Those are the sounds of guns! And they’re coming from inside the gym! Ms. Elayne found someone to save us!" "We're saved!"The children held each other and cried. Their faces were

"Sir!"Tori and the others yelled as they ran toward Adrian."Kids, do you see that trailer? Run to it as fast as you can. Go, now!" Adrian said. The grim reaper-looking monster entered the storeroom with its eerie-looking scythe. The children were severely frightened. They looked toward the trailer as Tori asked, "What about you, sir?""Don't worry about me. Just go!" The children cried in shock as they ran toward the trailer. Adrian said through the communicator, "Padraig, the children are on their way. Send out two men to receive them.""Yes, sir." "I want you all to leave this place the moment the children are in the trailer. Find a safe place. I'll be right behind you."Padraig looked toward the storeroom and saw the grim reaper monster. It looked like a boss from video games, and it had its sights locked on Adrian.Padraig took a deep breath and said, "Koby, Zane, go pick up the children. I'll cover you guys.""Roger!”Two young men ran toward the children, firi

Vroom!!! The trailer's engines roared. The vehicle slammed into several monsters as it sped off. More monsters headed their way, and Elayne's hands trembled as she controlled the steering wheel. Padraig and the others were on their stomach on top of the trailer, firing their guns at the monsters relentlessly. The trailer was stained red with monsters’ blood."Look for the path where the monster numbers in the least and step on it!" Padraig yelled. Even though overwhelmed with fear, Elayne could continue driving and ram into the monsters thanks to her survival instincts. The monsters were crushed beneath the tires as the trailer sped out of the encirclement. "What about Sir Draco?!" someone yelled. "Don't worry about him. I'm sure he has a plan in mind. We need to focus on saving ourselves. Fire!"Rat-ta-ta-ta!!! More and more monsters swarmed toward the trailer. Padraig and the group were in a dangerous situation. Suddenly, their trailer was forced to a halt. Elayne floored

Padraig, not stopping to think who the woman was, yelled, "Quick! We're ditching the trailer!" He pulled the trailer door open and continued, "Elayne, get your students and jump over to the top of that truck."Without any time to think, Elayne led the children out of the trailer and did their best to jump over. However, one of the children, Dustin, was a little too heavy and fell over the side. A sledgehammer instantly swung toward him."Aaah!"Dustin screamed in horror, but a woman immediately dashed out of the front passenger seat and kicked away the sledgehammer. She then held Dustin in her arms and somersaulted to the top of the truck.Padraig and the others fired their weapons, killing the nearby monsters. When everyone was gathered at the top, he yelled, "Let's get out of here!" Everyone jumped to the top of the truck and lay low."Hold on!" The woman got back into the driver’s seat and said, "We’re out!" The truck revved and rammed the monsters over as it sped out of th

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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
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 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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4807
"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
