The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1603
Adrian raised Dragonbane into the air, lodged the sword into the monster’s foot, and rolled away from the attack. As the monster jumped from the pain, Adrian held up his hand and recalled Dragonbane to his grasp. He then jumped above the monster’s head and slashed its neck. Slash!Drangonbane managed to slice into the monster's weakest part. Screaming in agony, the monster lashed out and tried to grab Adrian. However, he had already retreated to a safe distance. The pain the monster felt infuriated it. The monster stared at Adrian with its deadly gaze as it swung its scythe once more. It was going to be difficult for Adrian to eliminate the monster thoroughly. More importantly, he could not find any weakness that would allow him to kill the creature with a single strike. Thus, he could only return to dodging the monster's attacks while looking for another opportunity.But Adrian’s stamina was depleting, while the monster’s seemed endless. It tirelessly launched attacks, each on
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1604
All living beings had emotions, be they gods or humans. And Adrian's provocation was aimed at the Creator who was controlling the monster. After all, he was the only one who could make the monster more powerful.Sure enough, the large shadow in the sky suddenly shifted, revealing a human face. It had eyes and a mouth, laughing away as it hovered above Adrian. A voice came down, saying, "Puny human. I'm going to destroy you for challenging me, your creator.""Hmph! So you've finally decided to show yourself, huh?" Adrian said with a smile. "Grim, kill him!" the giant face yelled. The monster called Grim suddenly went on a rampage, launching another volley of attack at Adrian. The monster had no idea that was exactly what he wanted. Adrian retreated a hundred meters till they arrived by a lake near the school. Grim continued to chase after Adrian until the latter stopped by the water. The monster tried to stomp Adrian once more, but he quickly jumped over to the opposite side of

After the face disappeared, Adrian heaved a sigh of relief. He sat on Grim's corpse to catch his breath. His clothes were completely drenched, and he was exhausted. However, he did not dare rest for too long as he was unsure of the situation at Gold Haven. After a few minutes, Adrian got up and was about to leave, when he spotted something black on Grim's body. The thing was lodged in Grim's head as if someone had performed surgery to implant it on the monster. It was a black metal block with runes on it, similar to the ones Adrian had seen in the past. "This again?" He frowned. Adrian carved out the stone with his sword and held it in his hand. The stone was the size of a goose's egg with runes all over it. This was not his first time coming across such a stone. The first time was at the basement in St.Elmer's Church, the second being at the top of the Apex Obelisk. However, this one had different runes. "Is this used to control the monsters?" he muttered.Adrian quickly push

The humans were now exhausted. Many were so tired they could no longer stand up, close to being useless in battle. They were incapable of aiming and pulled their triggers mindlessly, causing their bullets to fly all over the place. The majority of them did not possess any combat experience. Watching the monsters crash into the defensive walls, Oliver shouted, "Rozi, do you have any ideas? The walls will be destroyed soon!"Rozi answered as she slayed another bird monster, "We've got reinforcements on the way.""What?" Oliver was stunned, and so were the others. They looked toward the city outskirts and saw a container truck rushing toward them. Several fully geared women were crouched on top of the truck, shooting at the surrounding monsters with excellent marksmanship. They wasted not a single bullet. Every shot hit one monster in the head.The truck ran over the monsters that stood in its way, barreling down the street and sending monsters flying. Upon arriving at the vicinity
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1607
Everyone retreated and ran for the underground parking lot. The city walls began to tremble even more now that nobody was defending them. It would not be long before they were destroyed. Oliver and Cian joined the other survivors in retreating.As the temporary defensive walls crumbled, the survivors dove into the parking lot, closing the fire-resistant doors behind them. The whole place was pitch-black, and everyone crumpled onto the floor, gasping raspily. "Everyone managed to retreat," Oliver said through his communicator.Padraig yelled out, "Ms. Helen! Everyone is safe and the walls have come down!" Helen returned to the truck and said, "Sisters, get in!" "Okay!"The women leaped into the air and grabbed the top of the truck with one hand, firing their guns at the surrounding monsters with the other. Padraig and his men felt like puking as they sat in the rattling container, unaccustomed to battling in such a crude way. Bam!!! The truck flew over the rubble of the wal

The number of monsters slowly dwindled until there were less than a hundred of them left. An hour later, carcasses littered the city, with only a couple more monsters lurking on the streets. Thanks to the snipers, they were able to take down every last one of them. "All monsters killed. Mission complete," one of the women on the high ground reported. Everyone smiled happily and high-fived each other in celebration. However, their clothes were heavily drenched in green monster blood. "Good work, everyone," Helen said with a smile. Rozi heaved a sigh of relief and landed on a street.Helen and her sisters approached Rozi. Reaching out her hand, Helen said with a smile, "You fight pretty well. You're an immortal, aren't you? My name's Helen. Nice to meet you."Rozi, now used to modern greetings, reached out her hand and shook Helen's. "I'm genuinely mesmerized by how well you all work together. My name's Abioye Rozi. Please, call me Rozi, and it's a pleasure to meet you all.""

"Let's keep it short.” Adrian waved.Helen smiled wryly as she thought of their lives that were filled with twists and turns. She said, "Monarch Crystal gave us jobs after you saved us and sent us to Delven County. We lived our lives in peace for a while. We just got settled into ordinary life and were about to find life partners when suddenly everyone in the county disappeared, including many of our sisters. We found this place after we left the county, but what's happening?"Although Helen and the others had plucked up the courage to face whatever battles awaited them, they had no idea who or what they were up against.Adrian felt consoled after hearing her story. The Creator's reset was completely random, which meant everyone had a fifty percent chance of surviving the reset. The chaos was great, but he had a few advantages. Many talented people had been left behind and could be added to his forces. If the Creator could select who he wanted to reset, he would surely have erased t

Adrian gave everyone their assignments before they got into their respective trailers and left Gold Haven. There was a heavy mood in the air, and nobody knew how much longer they could last.***Although the world had been reset, the survivors had not lost hope. As Adrian and the others departed from Gold Haven, Jerome was bringing down all the monsters in Yelloton. The city had ample resources, and Jerome was using these resources to link up all the safe zones within the city. On top of that, he was trying to restore the power. It was the only way to reactivate the wireless signals. They needed to maintain contact with the outside world if they wished to defend the place. Jerome had no intention of leaving Yelloton. He wanted to secure the place before even thinking about going anywhere else, and he was not the only one bust at work. Evercrest Mountain was located at one of the ten military strategic points of Novemton's natural moat. This place was between Northern Navia and Ex

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 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
