The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1688
Feeling the pressure from the pursuing monsters, Adrian quickly led the woman into the workshop. He had entered the secret passage before and was thus familiar with the route, managing to reach it with ease. The entrance of the passage had been blown wide open and the smell of explosives hung in the air. It was clear that Ivy and the others had blasted the door to get in."Get in!" Adrian urged the woman as they reached the entrance.The woman, gasping for air, hurriedly squeezed into the entrance.Meanwhile, more monsters closed in on them. Without wasting any time, Adrian took out a bomb he had prepared beforehand and placed it at the entrance. He then dove into the passage. When he felt they were far enough, he clicked the detonator.Boom!The entrance to the secret passage was blown up once more, causing the debris to fall and seal off the entrance completely. The force of the blast was so intense that it knocked Adrian and the woman several meters forward."Are you okay?" Ad

Jane was surprised at Adrian’s words, even excited. "How do you know about Jared? Are you from Wyvern Peak too? I'm sorry. I haven't even asked you your name."Adrian chuckled and replied, "It's Adrian."“Oh," Jane answered.Adrian smiled. After some hesitation, Jane asked, "Do you think we’ll survive this, Adrian? The world has changed so much, and we might die at any turn.”Everyone now lived in despair, unable to see any hope for the future. Jane was a lot luckier than most people because she had met Adrian.Reassuringly, Adrian said, "This passage will lead us out of Swallowston. Once we're outside, we’ll head to Novemton. Novemton is currently heavily defended with walls and soldiers from Wyvern Peak. There are many fellow survivors there. Who knows. We might find your brother there too."Jane never imagined she would see her brother again. After all, she did not know how much longer she would survive. "I hope Jared’s alive and that the world will return to normal soon."

Ivy checked several trucks but found none of them usable. She then approached a cargo truck and inspected it for any external damage before getting into the driver's seat. To her surprise, the keys were still in the ignition, and the car’s headlights came on when Ivy turned it. However, the truck’s gas tank was empty."Nyssa, check if there's any fuel nearby," Ivy called out to Nyssa."Found some. There are several barrels of fuel here," Nyssa shouted back.Ivy was overjoyed when she heard Nyssa's report. One of the rooms was filled with barrels containing gasoline and diesel. Ivy quickly instructed, “Fuel up that cargo truck and load up all the barrels you can find. We've secured ourselves a vehicle. Load up all the weapons too. They'll come in handy when we head to Novemton.""Sounds good.”The three women divided their tasks accordingly—Ivy inspected the truck, Nyssa loaded the weapons, and Eira loaded the fuel barrels. Gloria joined Nyssa to help with the weapons. Once the tru

Ivy drove the truck down the main road of the passage. They arrived at the exit approximately twenty minutes later. It was sealed by a massive iron gate, blocking their way out of Swallowston. This was the very gate that prevented the monsters from entering.The vehicle stopped at a safe distance from the gate, and Adrian got off the top of the truck. He then gestured to Ivy and said, "I'll blast the gate open. Once that's done, I want you to charge out without stopping for anything. We're going to be faced with a lot of monsters after the gate. Don't worry, I'll catch up." Ivy nodded, showing complete trust in Adrian's plan.***Kaboom!The heavy iron gate exploded as a powerful blast shattered it, leaving a gaping hole. Adrian had calculated the explosives he needed to ensure that the gate was instantly blown open."Go!"Monsters were already pouring in through the hole created by the explosion. The truck's engine roared as Ivy accelerated, driving out of the exit. The mons

Ivy brought the truck to a stop, her attention drawn to the gold-furred dog. It trembled as it hid in the bushes."Eira, go get the dog," Ivy instructed after making sure the area was safe.Eira got down and approached the dog. Sensing human presence, the dog was both scared and eager for contact. She crouched before the dog and extended her hand. "You must be so scared. It's okay, I'm not a bad person. You're not safe here, so you need to come with me.”Seeming to understand Eira, the dog came out from the bushes. Eira gently patted its head and lifted up the large dog, who responded by licking her face in gratitude, expressing its loyalty.Eira chuckled and cradled the dog as she climbed back into the truck. After that, Ivy resumed driving."So what's the plan, Adrian? We should reach Novemton tomorrow if it all goes well, but I think we're running low on food," Ivy asked."There are two rest stops about twenty kilometers ahead. They're far away from civilization, so there shou

The rest area, being in a remote location, did not house a large number of monsters. Therefore, Adrian did not attract too much attention from the nearby straggling monsters. Some wandering creatures began to approach after hearing the commotion, but Adrian quickly dispatched them using Dragonbane. He was not an immortal yet, but Dragonbane was more than sufficient to deal with those monstersIn less than ten minutes, Adrian had eliminated the monsters around the area and headed into the mart. He was pleased to find that there were still some supplies on the shelves. While the store had suffered some damage, a significant portion of the supplies remained intact, including many food items.Adrian smiled at the sight, happy that his group had enough supplies to travel to Novemton. He pulled out a bag he had brought from the truck and began to fill it with the supplies. Since he could not take everything, he focused on collecting food and water, along with a few other useful items.A

Phillip said, "I am, but my mother's hungry. I can't live without her.""How did you evade all the monsters?""I come here at night when they can't see me."Phillip's determination moved Adrian. He was at an age where he should be pampered by his mother, yet he was protecting her instead.Taking a deep breath, Adrian said, "Take me to your mother. I’ll get both of you out of this place. I've got several others with me in a truck. We have medical supplies, so we can treat your mother.”Phillip nodded in agreement and held Adrian's hand as they hurried to the gas station.Right at that moment, the truck in the distance honked repeatedly, signaling to Adrian there was a large number of monsters approaching. Ignoring the warning, Adrian and Phillip entered the gas station, where they found the young boy's mother.The woman in her early thirties was curled up inside a container. Her legs were torn open, exposing the bones underneath and the wounds crusted with dried blood. The horrif

Adrian clenched his fists as he looked at the monsters. The small Philip tried his best to remain calm.Bang! Bang! Bang! Gunshots rang out as Nyssa and Eira engaged the approaching monsters. The thousands of monsters split into two groups, one charging toward the truck, and the other heading toward Adrian."Phil!" Adrian turned his head toward the boy whose gaze remained unwavering despite the approaching threat.Phillip looked back at Adrian with determination as the latter instructed, "Phil, you're now a young man capable enough to protect your mother. Do you see that truck over there?"Phillip nodded. "I see it.""Good. Now, I need you to take your mother to that truck. The ladies inside will help you. Remember, stay strong. You're your mother's last hope.""What about you?" Phillip asked.Adrian patted Phillip's shoulder reassuringly. "I'll stay behind to cover for you. Just focus on getting your mother onto the truck. I'll be right behind you. Can you be brave, especiall

Adrian was blatantly threatening her. It was clear he would subject her to torment and death if she didn’t agree to his terms. How could such a person be described as reasonable?Renee gritted her teeth, wishing she could punch Adrian and show him her strength.Adrian simply looked at her calmly. “There’s no need to resent me. I’m actually quite agreeable. When things can be resolved, I try to resolve them. As for you, rest assured. During your month of servitude, I won’t make you serve in vain. You’re the princess of Ciawales, correct? It just so happens I have some free time. Let’s head there together.“Also, tell me about the customs and cultures of this world. I’ve been in secluded training for many years and have forgotten much about the outside world,” he lied.Renee was taken aback. Adrian didn’t look much older than her, so how could he be some kind of reclusive expert? His words only left her more puzzled.“How am I supposed to introduce it? Are you not from this world?”

Was Adrian looking for praise? Renee couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated. She wasn’t sure what Adrian was trying to convey. All his words seemed to point to one thing—that he was her savior, and now she owed him her obedience.To Renee, this was a difficult pill to swallow. After all, she was a princess, and Adrian’s implication was that she should lower herself to him. But under the current circumstances, she had no choice but to bow her head.Though she felt deeply unwilling, Renee could only grit her teeth and respond calmly, “Yes, you saved me. I’m deeply grateful. I promise to repay your kindness when I get the chance.” She locked eyes with Adrian, waiting for his reaction. If Adrian wasn’t satisfied, she truly didn’t know what to do. The valuable items she possessed were limited, consisting mostly of a few life-saving treasures. Beyond that, there wasn’t much on her that was of worth.Adrian, however, narrowed his eyes and said sharply, “Just a few words of thanks? Do y

"Spare me! Otherwise, Divine Reaper won’t let you go!" the leader shouted, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Adrian.The man looked terrifying, exuding a powerful aura. He was using a secret technique, hoping to escape. But with a casual wave of his hand, Adrian created a barrier that blocked the man’s path.Renee, watching from below, was stunned. Divine Reaper… They were the most feared assassin organization in the Spirit Domain, known for their stealthy and deadly methods that instilled fear in everyone.There was a saying across the Spirit Domain: if Divine Reaper marked someone for death, nine out of ten targets would die. If someone survived, it was because they were of an extraordinary and untouchable status. Clearly, her status as the princess of Ciawales wasn’t extraordinary enough to make her exempt from such threats.Adrian smiled and said, “Nice name, but you’ve offended the wrong person. You deserve to die.” He swung his Soul Devouring Sword.A wave of power surged forth, a

"I can't believe it! Is this guy really that terrifying? Can we truly not defeat him?" the leader muttered. He gripped a curved blade, which now glowed with a blood-red light.The others around him also had cold glints in their eyes. They were not about to admit defeat easily. Although Adrian was powerful, they weren’t willing to give up without a fight. Adrian had only been killing intermediary Nascents. He hadn’t even touched the advanced ones yet. Most importantly, their leader was at the peak of the Nascent Stage, making him an incredibly strong and fearsome opponent. This alone was enough to show that their leader had the strength to go toe-to-toe with Adrian. They were confident that Adrian couldn’t defeat their boss, especially with them assisting.Boom, boom, boom!A terrifying shockwave tore through the heavens, leaving the surroundings trembling violently. Adrian’s gaze was sharp, filled with an intense killing intent.“Die!” he shouted.Bam!The leader was struck har

Moreover, the strength Adrian displayed was so overwhelming that it left everyone in disbelief. After all, in the Spirit Realm, the physical body of any immortal was supposed to be relatively fragile, and having a powerful physical body was impossible.The group couldn't quite accept the fact that Adrian was out of their league. Yet, no matter how they tried to make sense of it, it seemed like nothing could change the reality of the situation. One of the black-clad men sneered. "Perhaps this kid's physical strength is enhanced by some kind of secret treasure. Once we kill him and take the treasure, we’ll boost our own power." His words were intended to rally the group as if trying to inspire them to believe they were on the verge of victory. Adrian merely smiled coldly upon hearing this. With a murderous gleam in his eyes, his voice turned cold as he said, "Since you're all so determined to meet your end, don't blame me."Adrian threw another punch, and this time, it was a force

The group's formation suddenly began to shatter. The white light radiated by the formation continued to whip up the surrounding yellow sand."How is this possible?" one of the men gasped in disbelief. This was a powerful barrier set up by several experts in the late Divine Stage, yet it had been destroyed so easily.The leader of the black-clad men sneered. "Hmph! It's just the formation being broken. Most likely it was pure luck for this guy. Don’t be afraid of him."His words caused the others to pause. While his words were meant to reassure them, the reality of the situation was far from simple. It was impossible for them to defeat Adrian, who was proving to be much stronger than anticipated? After all, Adrian’s strength had clearly surpassed that of a typical Divine immortal. Even if he were in the Divine Stage, he had undoubtedly reached the peak. Breaking the formation with ease was impossible unless one was at that level."It's just a bluff," the leader of the black-clad m

Renee felt a sense of helplessness within. As a princess of Ciawales, she was now left pondering a difficult question.Adrian was unaware of Renee’s thoughts. If he had known that Renee was considering fleeing while he was risking his life, he would not have helped her.As the onslaught of attacks descended upon him, Adrian leaped swiftly into the air. The attacks from the black-clad men crashed into him, but Adrian remained unscathed. This caused the group of attackers to freeze in disbelief."What’s going on?" they muttered in shock as they stared at Adrian, who appeared as agile as a panther.At the moment when Adrian leaped into the air, it seemed as though nothing could stop him. His expression remained calm and nonchalant in the face of their attacks."Is this all you’ve got? You’re really that weak. Feel free to unleash everything you’ve got. Don’t hold back," Adrian said, his tone laced with disdain.The black-clad group was stunned by Adrian’s arrogance. Even Renee stood
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4552
Adrian smiled as he replied, "Is that so? Well, it seems you're just unlucky. The moment you encountered me, your fate was already sealed."His simple words were filled with provocation, meant to make the group before him admit their defeat. If they didn't, Adrian was determined to make them regret it.The leader of the black-clad men sneered and stepped forward. "How laughable. This is the first time I’ve encountered such an arrogant brat. Do you really think you're some kind of unparalleled genius? I see your strength is only at the Divine Stage. While I can’t quite tell your true level, you shouldn’t be so cocky. Even with your strength, we can overwhelm you with numbers and wear you down. You really don't know when to quit. Now, I’ve changed my mind. Kneel before us, and we’ll spare you."As the leader was talking, his curved blade gleamed with a faint light. The light from the blade seemed to radiate with a dangerous brilliance, causing Adrian’s expression to momentarily shift

"No matter who he is, he's no match for us. I advise you to surrender quietly, Renee," one of the black-clad men said.Clinging to the last flicker of hope, Renee was not willing to give up. She charged toward the barrier, unleashing an attack as she did. The strike hit the barrier, and it trembled violently.At that moment, Adrian’s eyes snapped open. Seeing the situation before him, his expression grew cold.Renee continued her wild assault. As her eyes met Adrian’s, an unexpected surge of panic overtook her.The black-clad pursuers were furious. “Hey, kid up ahead! I suggest you mind your own business. This woman belongs to us. If you want to stay alive, leave now."The voice of the black-clad man was booming, and the sound of it echoed through the desert, proving that these pursuers were no ordinary threat.Adrian’s expression turned even colder. He had no intention of getting involved, but when the others spoke so recklessly, he couldn’t just ignore it. As he slowly rose to
