The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1770
As the temperature continued to drop, the snowfall intensified. People within the city were shivering with cold, and even objects froze in place. The soldiers were trembling from the cold too.Rozi, who had rejoined Adrian, could not hide her astonishment as she observed the spectacle in the distance."What's happening?" she asked."It's Marissa,""What?"Adrian never expected Marissa's eyes to possess such an ability. He had experienced how cold the gems were back at the War Legate Shrine, but he had not expected them to still work this way after fusing with Marissa. Marissa, on the other hand, looked calm as she continued to radiate with piercing cold. The surrounding temperature had fallen to negative twenty degrees Celsius. Snowflakes were forming everywhere, and slowly, the cold spread until it reached the outskirts of Drogoton. The minotaurs were confronted with this expanding cold. Their fiery bodies cooled as they came into contact with the cold air. The reach of this

The eye gems were part of the artifact Wonder had recreated. When the gems fused with the eagle artifact, they would become a weapon capable of defeating the Creator. Marissa's eyes were only part of the whole artifact. Yet, the light she unleashed was capable of such powers, leaving Adrian astonished. Drogoton would undoubtedly have fallen if not for her help. Adrian took Marissa back to her room after the chilling encounter. She had been through quite an ordeal and was exhausted. He gently placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket."Get some rest. We'll be setting out early tomorrow," he said softly.Marissa reached out and grabbed his hand. Adrian asked, "Is something wrong?" Marissa bit her lip, trying to hide her unease and fear. "Am I going to die?"Adrian was taken aback. "Why would you ask that?" He could see the fear in her eyes. "Will you sacrifice me for the sake of winning this battle?" Perhaps because she was young, Marissa felt insecure although

Marissa extended her pinky and hooked it around Adrian's. "Thank you." Adrian smiled and gently stroked her hair. "Get some sleep. We'll leave tomorrow morning. Rozi and I will protect you along the way. You're our hope, and you’re also my family, remember that. Good night." Adrian bent down and kissed Marissa lightly on her forehead. The kiss seemed to fill Marissa with boundless courage. She obediently closed her eyes, letting go of her worries.Meanwhile, Remy and the others were holding an emergency meeting inside Headquarters to come up with a strategy against the minotaurs. There was a huge chance those monsters would appear again, so they needed to come up with a countermeasure so that Drogoton would remain strong.Remy had also contacted Sage, Sylvia, and the other cities, including Novemton, to share this information. This allowed the surviving cities to come up with a countermeasure together.After Adrian left Marissa's room, he found Rozi waiting for him."How is she
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1773
Rozi took a deep breath. She thought that scenario would be the best for Marissa. Otherwise, something worse would happen to her. "Let's hope so. I don't wish to see her hurt. She's an innocent girl who has no reason or obligation to become the gems' host.""Still, we need her," Adrian said.Rozi said nothing more and left the room.Marissa, back inside the room, had overheard their conversation. She was now aware of her situation but chose not to say anything. She was slightly afraid of what was to come. ***That evening, Remy gathered everyone in Drogoton and asked them to share their ideas on how to deal with the minotaurs. The city leaders gathered for a meeting to discuss various strategies.The sudden appearance of these monsters had caught everyone off guard. Now that they had a better understanding of the monsters' abilities, they needed to devise a plan to counter them. The minds of humans would always be capable of exceeding the Creator's expectations. Everyone came

“Instead of killing them, we just have to make sure they don’t reach the city. At the same time, we can use their extremely high temperatures to quickly solidify our cement mixture and further secure our defenses,” Karin spoke with confidence.Stardust stood up and said, "We understand what you're getting at, but are you sure we'll be able to stop the minotaurs if we follow your plan? We'd need to mobilize all of our reserve cement to comply with your plan.""I have a complete solution against them, but I don’t have time to explain it to you all in greater detail. Remember, I'm an architect. Sir Remy, I will need a hundred thousand men. Give me them and I promise I'll build a new defensive wall around Drogoton the next time those minotaurs come around. Moreover, the walls will be multi-layered.” Alcyoneus added, "This is no joking matter, Ms. Karin. The lives of everyone in Drogoton are at stake here.""That's precisely why I proposed this idea. Or do any of you have a better idea
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1775
Soon, the hundred thousand men were selected. Karin began assigning them their respective tasks. Meanwhile, Remy ordered everyone to stay inside their homes so that they would not affect Karin's progress. Sometimes, victory in battle was not achieved through sheer force or defeating one's enemy. Instead, it was simply to keep the monsters at bay.All of Drogoton was filled with a buzz as everyone got to work.Late that night, Remy and Adrian sat in Drogoton's headquarters, discussing the impending disaster. Rozi sat beside them, silently listening to their conversation and occasionally interjecting with her thoughts."The ultimate battle will be our last fight, and I call it The Final Fight. When that happens, you, Jerome, Sage, Sylvia, and Strider will be my last hope. I want all of you to fight relentlessly and forge your own legends. You have a lot of responsibility on your shoulders, and I know you miss your siblings very much right now, but remember, this is your mission," Adri

Remy nodded. "You're our mentor, so I'm sure you'd want your apprentices to grow up and become good people. Adrian replied, "That's not all I want for you all. I want you all to surpass me by leaps and bounds so that this world can still improve when I'm not around. I'm no longer the man I used to be, but you're all here. I need you all to be better than me. My only mission now is to help you grow. The people no longer need Sir Draco in their lives. They need younger, stronger, and smarter people like you all.""You always think about others so much. But this time, I think you should put yourself in Samantha and Nova's shoes. The two of them need your protection more than us." "There's no way out for me now. We have no other choice. I've placed all my hopes on you five because I know you can do better than I can. As for Sam, she'll understand why I have to do this.""But what about Nova?" "She'll have her own ideas when she grows up, and I don't want her to live in my shadow. W
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1777
Nothing unusual happened that night.Due to time constraints, Adrian intended to leave Drogoton with Rozi and Marissa right after breakfast. Stardust prepared an armed vehicle for them, which was acquired from the Wyvern Peak base camp. On top of that, Stardust also prepared some supplies.Early that morning, with Stardust in the lead, everyone stood by the city gates in an orderly fashion to send Adrian off."Sir Remy headed out of the city with some men to bring back the minotaurs for research purposes. He's asked me to see you off,” Stardust explained.Adrian had not been expecting a send-off from Remy since the latter had responsibilities he needed to attend to.The armed vehicle was already ready and waiting when Adrian and the others arrived outside the gate. "Stardust, you're a veteran of Wyvern Peak. Although our headquarters has fallen, our organization hasn't been destroyed. From now on, I need you to protect everything and everyone here. This world will truly be witho

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
