The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1711
Adrian was originally under the impression that Hugh was not very impressive. Crystal was the one who promoted him, but Adrian had never been particularly impressed by Hugh's abilities. However, he refrained from commenting out of respect for Crystal. It was now clear to Adrian that Hugh was underutilizing his talents while being Crystal's subordinate.Half an hour later, Adrian held a meeting at headquarters. Several upper management personnel attended the meeting, and he shared with them what Philip had said about Crutcher. Steel and the others were confused when they heard the story."Sir, are you saying you intend to leave Novemton again to find this Crutcher fellow?" Steel asked.Adrian nodded in confirmation. The information Philip had revealed regarding Crutcher might contain crucial insights into the future. Having no means of dealing with the Creator, Adrian was willing to explore all possibilities, including the ones that had very little success and very high risks.He ex

The others fell silent. There was a possibility they were not handling the matter with the right attitude since they did not share Adrian's foresight.Meanwhile, Rozi entered the meeting room and said, "I'm inclined to agree with Adrian. There's a saying that God leaves a window open whenever he closes a door. Nobody in this world is perfect, not even the Creator AKA the Destroyer.”All eyes turned toward her. Having spent time with modern people, Rozi had assimilated to the new environment and learned some popular phrasesHelen said, "Are you saying that you support Sir Draco's decision? If so, you'd need convincing reasons because it still seems too risky to us.""She's right, Grandma. None of us knows for sure whether the person the child mentioned actually exists."Everyone began expressing their opinions.They called Rozi "Grandma" as a playful joke because many were aware that Rozi originated from twelve centuries ago.She stepped forward and, naturally, had her reasons fo

They began to recap the entire situation.Why would the Destroyer want to reset the world? The answer was to eliminate all surviving humans, and he must have had his reasons for wanting to do so. Given the limit of his abilities, he was unable to eliminate them all in one fell swoop. He could only wipe out half of the population, proving that resetting the world inflicted a lot of damage on him. It was either that or he would be spending too much of his powers and leave himself in a weakened, vulnerable state. Because of this, he sent out monsters to deal with the remaining survivors. However, this raised a question—why had he chosen to erase the survivors' memories instead of letting his monsters finish the job if his aim was to eliminate all life on Earth? With the massive number and abilities of these monsters, combined with the aftermath of the reset, where everything was shrouded in darkness and no plants could grow, humans had only two choices. They ended up being killed by

"It’s the reason he's so adamant about finding Crutcher," Rozi said, proving that she knew him well.Everyone turned to look at Adrian.Steel asked, "Is this true, sir? What's on your mind?""Come on, sir. You should tell us what you're thinking even if you don't have any evidence to support it. This isn't the time for us to overlook any possibility," urged the others.Adrian smiled and said, "None of you have been able to read my thoughts despite the years we've spent together. Yet, Princess Rozi read me like a book though we've only known each other for a few days. You should all consider making her your role model."Laughter filled the room as Adrian continued, "Wonder found a way to defeat the Destroyer, which was why he chose to compromise."Everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. The Destroyer chose to compromise because Wonder found a way to defeat him? Seriously?'At that thought, Steel asked, "Do you have any basis for this theory, sir?"Adrian replied, "Rozi just mentio

A silence fell over the meeting room. Everyone was trying to process Adrian's words. His revelations had offered a glimpse into the future and brought hope. Judging that Rozi was from over two thousand years ago, maybe Wonder had left someone else behind—someone who held the key to ending the chaos.Steel said, "I see. You believe Crutcher might hold the key Wonder left behind and that he will be able to teach us how to defeat the Destroyer, is that right?"Adrian nodded. "I hadn't considered this at first, but Phillip made me reevaluate the entire situation when he told me about Crutcher. Why would Rozi say that Wonder won? That's because he managed to walk away after a confrontation with a powerhouse and even left behind the method for us to eliminate this powerhouse. It was a grand victory for Wonder. The Destroyer lost, and very thoroughly for that matter. It took him five thousand years to restore his powers and launch another reset, but he failed to erase all traces of what Won

"Everyone, you're dismissed. Remember, I'm still here, so don't give up hope. I will stand with you all and never retreat, no matter how tough the situation gets.”The meeting concluded, and Adrian quickly exited the meeting room, followed by Helen and the other women. He asked, "Susan, where are Sam and Nova? I'd like to see them.""They're their room. It shouldn’t be too difficult to find," Susan replied.Adrian nodded and made his way to the main hall.Samantha was tidying up the bed, while Gloria played with Nova. Having finally found a sense of security, Samantha's worries temporarily eased, and she and Gloria decided to share the room and the bed. Their bond had grown stronger through their shared experiences."Hey, you." Gloria looked up and greeted Adrian when he entered.Samantha, who had been tidying the bed, quickly turned with a smile on her face. Adrian smiled back and bent down to pick Nova up. "Papa!" Nova reached out to grab Adrian.Adrian turned to Samantha an

Adrian left after bidding Samantha and Gloria farewell. He had one ultimate dream, one that he shared with everyone. For the sake of survival, he had to leave Novemton and chase after even the slightest glimmer of hope.Rozi was already packed and waiting in the main hall. Steel and the others were also gathered. After all, nobody knew when Adrian was going to return."Sir!""Sir!"As Adrian stepped out, the crowd surrounded him. Helen and her sisters looked reluctant to see him go.Steel walked over and said, "This journey may be extremely dangerous, but we all sincerely hope for you to return, regardless of whether you find a solution or not. You're the only one who can bring us hope, and that's something everyone agrees on."Adrian nodded. He was now leaving with everyone's hopes and expectations, so he needed to return no matter what. He needed to return even if he failed to find a way to resolve the situation."Rest assured, I will come back. I want all of you to guard this
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1718
"You can do it, sir!" Adrian's departure carried not only their hopes but their collective trust in him as well. "He’s gone?" Samantha, who was feeding Nova, asked when Gloria walked in. Gloria had been atop the city wall and confirmed Adrian had left. "Yeah, he's gone. He's probably fighting off those monsters as we speak. The citizens have great faith in him, so he's sure to find a way to rescue them."Samantha sighed. "He said there's a chance for the people who vanished to return. I wonder if that's true. Do you think Mya and the others will be back?" Over the past few days, she had been missing her friends and family. Gloria sat on the bed and said, "I'm sure Adrian knows what he's talking about. There may be a chance for them to come back after he has killed the Creator.""I hope so. We've been blessed with somewhat peaceful days now that we're here. I'm so sorry for dragging you into all this, Gloria."Gloria shook her head. "I'm powerless right now, so as much as I wan

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?”
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4558
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 Return of the War Legate Chapter 4554
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

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
