The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1807
Time passed slowly, and countless more sacrifices were made. All kinds of events unfolded throughout the cities, including many deaths. These events bore witness to the power of hope and determination.Finally, one noon, after navigating through various obstacles, Adrian and his group reached their destination. Before them was Bronze City, the small town they had so painstakingly looked for. They were now less than forty kilometers away from Peach Village."We’re here!" Adrian announced, parking the car and gazing at the small town.Despite being small, the Bronze City was shrouded in an eerie silence. They could see signs of monsters passing through, with many houses damaged or destroyed. The sky was filled with bird monsters circling overhead as if they were watching their prey on the ground. The town appeared to be devoid of any living humans, and numerous bodies were scattered throughout in various poses. Most of them had started to decay due to the elements. This place had on

The large tree was wilting away from not having obtained any sunlight for a long time. It would die if it did not get any soon."Adrian!" Marissa said when she heard the cat's meows.She pointed at the cat in the tree, while Adrian glanced around to make sure there were no nearby monsters. Then, he nodded to Marissa, who took out a bag of fish snacks from her backpack and approached the tree. The scent of the snacks filled the air when she opened it."You must be starving, little kitty. I've got something tasty for you, so come down here," Marissa gently coaxed the cat.The cat, although hungry, remained cautious and did not dare to approach Marissa."I'll put it on the ground so that you can come and enjoy it."Marissa put the snack on the ground and stepped back several paces. The cat then jumped down from the tree and began to eat eagerly, meowing in hunger. It was famished, as was every other animal in the world.The trio watched smilingly as the cat began to eat the snack.

Thus, six felines joined the human trio. Bronze City was now within sight, and the town was crawling with monsters. Adrian surveyed their surroundings and said, "Rozi, let's take care of the ones inside the town first so that we don't alert the surrounding ones.""Understood." Rozi opened the car window and climbed onto the roof. A sword appeared in her hand, emitting an array of brilliant lights. The sword then began to multiply, splitting into twos, then into fours, until dozens of illusionary swords floated in front of Rozi. With a swift motion of her arm, all the swords flew out. Monsters in the sky and on the ground were pierced by the swords and collapsed.With these monsters dealt with, Adrian continued driving into Bronze City. He was no longer as anxious since there were no more monsters left. They could now enter safely.The streets of Bronze City were strewn with bodies. Most of them had been killed by the monster's blades. Bronze City only had one main street, and it

"She's dead. Her heart has stopped," Marissa responded.Adrian let out a deep sigh."Did the wolves enter the town? They're social animals that live in packs, so I'm sure there are more of them around. We should be careful. Although there aren't any monsters around, it'll be troublesome if we come across a pack of wolves," Rozi said. "Something's off." Adrian shook his head and took a look at his surroundings. "This one doesn't seem to be part of a pack. It's true there are wolves in the forest around this town, but it's too far away from them to want to come here.""Maybe they ran out of food and decided to find some here?" Marissa offered."That's a possibility, but that doesn't feel plausible," Adrian responded.Suddenly, they heard a baby's cry echo through the alley."What can you see over there, Marissa?" Adrian pointed in the direction of the crying.Marissa immediately took a look. With her newfound ability to see through obstacles, she scanned the area and said, "Ther

As unbelievable as this was, the evidence was all there.From the degree of composition, it was clear the baby's mother had been deceased for at least a week. Coupled with the wolf fur found near the baby and that the mother wolf was in its nursing period, it was clear it had been feeding the baby with its milk.Adrian picked up the baby and took a deep breath. "Let's get out of here. It isn’t good for the baby to be around a decaying body." He then looked to the deceased mother and said, 'I'm sorry we can't bury you, but I promise we'll take good care of your daughter. We will find you a resting place after we've won this battle." Rozi and Marissa cupped their hands together in prayer before leaving the shrine. The baby continued to cry due to hunger."She's hungry," Adrian said, looking worried. Marissa smiled. "Give her to me. I may have a way to feed her."Adrian was puzzled. "You do? Are you…"Marissa shot him a glare. "No, I'm not. I'm still a virgin. Let's just head t

"Ava? That's a good name. Looks like you're her mother from now on, Marissa. You've got yourself a daughter though you’re barely of age yourself."Marissa, however, did not find anything inappropriate about this. She looked down at Ava with a kind expression on her face. "Poor little Ava. Her mother died right by her side, and all she could do was watch her pass. I'm going to take good care of her from now on and be her mother."Adrian smiled as Marissa doted on the baby girl.The world may not be as beautiful as it used to be but there were still kind humans around. Marissa would not give up on Ava, nor was she going to let her grow up without a mother's love. Thus, Marissa became Ava's mother. ***The group left Bronze City, which Ava was the only survivor of. Adrian was disappointed. He had hoped to find more survivors despite the destruction of the town. Yet, the place had become devoid of humans a long time ago. "Peach Village is ten kilometers ahead. We'll reach there

"Aaaagh!" The ax cut into Adrian's shoulder and was then withdrawn to strike his head. Just as Adrian's head was about to be lobbed off, a sharp gust of wind swept over him and the teenager. Rozi had turned into a beam of light as she punched the monster's head and blew it up. The massive monster fell to the ground, but Rozi continued to angrily dismember the monster with her sword.Adrian trembled. Blood was pouring from his shoulder, but he still held the teenager tightly. The boy was petrified, and his face had turned pale."Adrian, are you okay?" Marissa rushed over from the car with a medical kit.Rozi cleared the area of any remaining monsters and went to Adrian’s side. His shoulder was injured. The wound was not so deep that it affected his movements. However, it was bleeding profusely."I'll disinfect it then suture it. We don't have anesthesia, so you'll have to bear with it," Marissa said tearfully."You know how to suture wounds?" Adrian asked.Marissa shook her he

"How long have you been hiding in the mine?"Whitney, still sobbing, replied, "Almost a month. We hid there since the fourth day of the disaster. The principal was killed on our way there, and so were our teachers. They were killed by the monsters. It's just us students left now." Adrian had not expected such a thing to happen in such a small town. Greenheart High was not too far away from Peach Village, so the villagers here attended that school. News of the sixty-four survivors was the best news Adrian could ever have received. He asked, "What have you all been eating to survive?""There's a fruit orchard taken care of by a rancher nearby, but he vanished. We've been living off of the fruits, but we finished them all a few days ago and have been starving since."Adrian smiled. "You’ve done well, Whitney. I need you to take me to the mine, okay?"Whitney nodded, then commented, "I feel like I've seen you before, sir. You look really familiar…""Is that so?""Oh yeah!" Whitne

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

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 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

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
