The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1754
"The station is overrun with monsters. Getting inside is relatively easy, but starting up a train will take some time. We’re going to have to eliminate all the monsters first."With some rough estimate, Adrian guessed there were more than a thousand of them inside. That did not seem like a lot, but after going through so many battles, Adrian knew more monsters would swarm to the location when they began fighting. Consequently, they were not facing just these thousands, but countless more coming from all sides.Rozi looked around and said, "There are too many monsters roaming nearby since we're still near Vanglesville. We'll be surrounded if we force our way in. Is there no other more reliable plan that doesn't involve fighting?" She looked at Adrian with a puzzled expression.Adrian shook his head, "No, there isn't. The station itself isn't very big, so we won't be able to sneak in unnoticed. Facing them is our only option.”"That doesn't seem like a very wise decision."Marissa p

Adrian, less than two hundred meters away, observed the situation. Nadine and Marissa looked nervous upon seeing the monsters.Adrian frowned and said, "Get ready, everyone. On the count of three, I want you two to stay very close behind me and Rozi as we enter the tunnel. After that, Nadine, Rozi, you two head to the nearest gate, while I go to the farthest one. Rozi will provide cover after the gate is shut. Nadine, you and Marissa follow me to the control room. Understand?""Understood," the three replied."All right, One… Two… Go!" As soon as he gave the command, Nadine and Marissa dashed forward, following behind Adrian and Rozi as they raced toward the tunnel. The noise created by their rush instantly attracted the monsters in the vicinity. Some of them leaped off the tracks and chased after them. The monsters inside the tunnel also noticed them and started rushing out.Adrian and Rozi, with swords in hand, quickly dispatched the closest monsters. Within a minute, the group

Meanwhile, Rozi was battling the monsters on top of the train. Fortunately, Adrian found spare fuel on the train. Relying on his experiences, Adrian did a series of checks to make sure all of the train was undamaged.The train soon roared to life and began jerking while spewing out white steam. Adrian smiled and called out, "It's operational. I need you to tell Rozi to open the gate after the third honk. We'll then rush out of here."To reduce the train's load, Adrian uncoupled several carriages while Nadine passed on the message to Rozi. When he heard Rozi's response, Adrian took a deep breath and got ready to instruct Rozi to open the gate.However, a series of rhythmic metal sounds came from inside the tunnel. It sounded like an S.O.S. message. Adrian did not pay much attention to it initially, but the sound grew louder and louder."It's a distress signal."Nadine and Marissa exchanged glances as he continued, "There are survivors here. You two, stay here and don't move. I'm
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1757
Six survivors—four men and two women—ran out of the room. Adrian, with no time to introduce himself, simply said, “Follow me!" They all headed toward the train, where Rozi was locked in fierce combat with monsters from all directions. Some had even begun damaging the train. Over a dozen monsters tried to block Adrian's path, but he cut them down with a single swing of his sword. He protected the survivors as they closed in on the trainHe shouted, "Get in!"Without hesitation, the survivors boarded the train. Adrian looked up and said, "Rozi, grab onto the train once you've opened the stone door! We're getting out of here!”"Got it!"Adrian dashed back into the train’s control room. With three loud honks, Rozi leaped down from the train roof and began to turn the gate's lever in the opposite direction, gradually bringing up the gate.As the gate opened, the monsters outside began to pour in. Some even jumped onto the roof. Rozi smartly chose not to open the gates completely, j

"It is him!""I never thought we'd run into you here, sir!" The other survivors started expressing their surprise and gratitude too.Adrian sat down and addressed them, "Relax, everyone. Are you all okay? What are your names?"The long-haired woman who spoke first stood up and introduced herself. "I'm Elise Dubois. I was a train conductor.”The short-haired woman next to her said, "I'm Mathilde Russel, her co-conductor."The four men introduced themselves as well. "I'm Lucienne Moreau, a security guard at the station.""Theo Deschamps. I worked at the ticket counter." "I'm Laurent Blanchard, and I was also a security guard." "Me too. The name’s Maxime Durand."Adrian nodded and remembered their names. "I'm glad you're all alive. We're currently headed to Drogoton. There are many soldiers guarding the city and they’ve also put up defensive walls. You'll all be safe there.”"Thank you, Sir Draco. We would've starved to death in there if it weren't for you,” said Elise.M

In the face of disaster, life took precedence over everything else. When Adrian took over Wyvern Peak, he had sworn an oath, pledging to value life about everything else. So whenever presented with the chance to save someone, he would never abandon them.Adrian had given them hope, and they, in turn, expressed their heartfelt gratitude. It was a reciprocal exchange, and Adrian believed that one day, the disaster would vanish into thin air."Rest, everyone. It's relatively safe here, and once we reach our destination, you can rest without worry," Adrian said, not wanting to burden them with more talk.Elise and the others shut their eyes, exhausted after being tensed up for so many days. Adrian had Nadine and Marissa head to the control room while he climbed onto the roof. Rozi was sitting there, maintaining a vigilant watch over their surroundings while pondering over her thoughts. "Are you thinking about Partingia again?" Adrian asked smilingly as he sat next to her.This time,
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1760
Rather than being a coincidence, everything seemed like deliberate action at that moment. Adrian said, "The Creator probably found out about this secret and tried to use Gostia to destroy Partingia since he hadn’t recovered his powers from the last battle. Yet, he failed. Left with no choice, he had to exhaust more of his powers to change the climate of Partingia."Rozi took a deep breath. "He wants to destroy the eagle artifact, but I won’t let him. I’ll avenge my father and my citizens, even if it means my death." She clenched her fists tightly.Adrian smiled. "And I'll be right by your side. However, going to Partingia's ruins isn't our top priority right now, so you need to keep a clear head and not lose your judgment.""I've lived for over a thousand years. Do you think I’m going to just sit here and be lectured by you, you little punk?" Rozi glared at Adrian."Where did you learn that from?”"Helen."Adrian was instantly speechless. He knew that Rozi would learn every sin
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1761
Adrian and Rozi took turns keeping watch on the roof. After about ten hours, they finally reached Drogoton's borders in the morning. There was only an hour's journey left before they reached the train station, located in the middle of Drogoton.Adrian expected this last hour to be the most challenging. He stood on the roof of the train, looking at Drogoton through his binoculars. He saw that Drogoton's periphery was protected by thick, towering walls that were several meters high. Outside the walls, countless monsters pounded at it, attempting to breach the walls and enter the city. Fortunately, the city walls were highly resistant to these attacks, and the monsters struggled to make even a dent."We're almost there," Adrian said as he put down the binoculars.Rozi climbed up and took a look too. "There are too many monsters around the city. They're all over the tracks. We'll be thrown off the track if we ram into so many of them." She may not fully understand how trains worked,

Edgar was determined to annihilate Adrian, and so he charged up his attack once again. The ground quaked, and towering trees fell one after another.Adrian’s eyes glinted coldly as he watched the scene unfold. He understood exactly what was happening and knew there would be no peace until one of them was defeated.Filled with a bloodthirsty desire, Edgar wanted nothing more than to kill Adrian. Adrian’s face darkened as he prepared to meet him with equal ruthlessness.At that moment, Edgar finally finished charging his attack and rushed forward. His sword transformed into countless blades that sliced through the air with devastating force.Adrian sneered. "Oh? So, you do have some skills, but I still advise you to surrender."Hearing this, Edgar's face twisted in anger. Adrian's remark felt like a blatant insult as if he was looking down on him."I’m going to destroy you!" Edgar swung his sword from an unexpected angle, aiming to break through Adrian’s defenses.Adrian sneered an

Adrian spoke calmly as he led Renee swiftly onward. He had no intention of lingering here. His destination lay elsewhere, and he didn’t want to waste time.As for the man pursuing them, Adrian had already gauged his abilities from his sword techniques. At most, Edgar had some skill, but Adrian was confident he could overpower Edgar in swordsmanship.Edgar, fuming with rage, shouted, “I don’t believe it! Are you some kind of sword expert?”Edgar’s attacks grew even more ferocious, his swordsmanship wild and fierce, as he charged forward. He was determined to end Adrian’s life here and now. Being known for his swordsmanship, Edgar could not tolerate being treated with such disdain. His heart burned with fury and unwillingness.Adrian glanced back dismissively and said, “I already told you, your swordsmanship is child’s play. Yet you refuse to believe it. How pitiful.”Edgar was nearly driven mad with rage. He had honed his swordsmanship for years, yet Adrian mocked it as child’s pla

“I can sense your strength. It’s decent, but you’re not qualified to fight me. This isn’t something you should get involved with," Edgar threatened, looking down on Adrian.Adrian’s expression turned icy as he retorted, “Is that so? I suggest you leave now. While you may have some strength, you’re not capable of swimming in my muddy waters.”Adrian was using Edgar’s own words against him, and Edgar’s face darkened. He hadn’t expected such resistance while trying to assassinate the princess.“Haha, boy, did you take care of that assassin group? It seems you have some skills, but you’ve made the wrong enemies. I advise you to step back before it’s too late,” Edgar said, visibly irritated.The assassins he had sent out hadn’t reported back. It seemed that Adrian had dealt with them. Otherwise, where could they have disappeared to?Adrian smirked. “I’ve already told you, you’re not qualified. Leave now. I don’t enjoy wasting my breath.”Adrian’s dismissive tone was almost like giving

Renee hadn’t expected their pursuers to catch up with them so quickly. It was much faster than she had imagined.Adrian’s expression darkened. He hadn’t anticipated that these people would return so soon. Who exactly had Renee offended? It was clear that their attackers were no ordinary group, and their strength was not to be underestimated.Adrian could sense that the opponent’s power was nearly equal to his own. He looked into the distance and said, “If they won’t show themselves, then let’s go.”With that, Adrian grabbed Renee and sped forward. Renee felt her body was completely out of her control as Adrian pulled her along at a breakneck pace, moving with incredible speed. It was as if Adrian were carrying a small chick. He moved swiftly with Renee in tow.Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!The sound of projectiles slicing through the air reached their ears again. Adrian, carrying Renee, dashed deeper into the forest, evading the incoming hidden weapons. Behind them, a shadowy figure pur

If Adrian could return to his original world, he could use the methods discovered in this one to eradicate the daemons there. Once that was done, everything would be resolved.The thought filled Adrian with a chilling satisfaction as he recalled the detestable daemons. Had it not been for the daemons, he wouldn’t have ended up lost in this world, nor would he have disappeared. Now, his primary task was to thoroughly investigate everything and uncover the secrets needed to destroy them.Renee, hearing Adrian’s words, felt a bit helpless. She realized that Adrian had likely planned everything out well in advance. Regardless, returning to Ciawales was her only option. Without Adrian by her side, she would not be strong enough to get back.With no other choice, Renee led the way, moving swiftly alongside Adrian. Within moments, they had traveled over a thousand meters. Time passed slowly, and as they continued onward, the sky gradually brightened. It seemed they had finally exited the d

Adrian’s gaze sharpened, his expression icy. The situation seemed far from simple. He realized that he needed to better understand this world. If the daemons truly existed here, it might hold similarities to his own underwater world. Perhaps, the secrets of this place could provide a way to break through the obstacles he faced.Adrian suddenly thought that his arrival in this world might have something to do with the presence of the daemons. If this world contained a method to eliminate the daemons, then maybe, just maybe, he could use it to destroy the daemons back in his world.This thought filled Adrian with a surge of excitement. He looked at Renee and asked, “What was the name of that Emperor Supreme?”Renee sighed with a hint of helplessness. “The Emperor Supreme was immensely powerful, an unparalleled figure since ancient times. No one really knows his true name. He is simply referred to as ‘Emperor Supreme,’ a title of reverence given to the most powerful beings in the Spiri

"Let’s set off then. The journey should take a few days," Adrian said, his gaze sharp and decisive. From his expression, it was clear he had everything planned out.Everything was falling into place for Adrian. He was well aware of his unfamiliarity with this world, so it was crucial for him to learn about it quickly. Renee, being a princess of the empire, had an in-depth understanding of the world. Having her as his guide was the perfect choice in his opinion. Although Renee was clearly reluctant, she had no choice in the matter. He needed a guide, and she fit the role.Renee felt helpless at Adrian’s demands but couldn’t find the right words to respond. Adrian was too shrewd, and his strength was far from ordinary. His incredible power left her wondering just how he had cultivated to such a level. Knowing the extent of his strength, she understood that trying to fight him was impossible. She had no choice but to comply.Looking at Adrian, Renee said, “If we head in this direction,

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
