Everyone was worried, but fortunately, they had learned how destructive Wyldeweed was. They would never touch it, as the consequences of getting addicted to it were terrifying.Adrian squinted. “Do you have more suspicions, Dr. Claude?” Claude pulled out a receipt. It was the list of herbs he had prepared for Matteo. “Look at the list. I suspect that something’s wrong with these Sol Pills.”Adrian glanced at the receipt before handing it to Lionel. “I don’t know what Sol Pills are.”“It’s a supplement the wealthy take.” Although Lionel had mostly wandered aimlessly through Debonaire, he had learned about all sorts of herbs.Bucky explained, “Sol Pills are extremely precious, said to rejuvenate a person by 10 years. I’ve never seen it before though and have only heard of it.”“And Dr. Matteo wants a lot of it.” Adrian glanced at the receipt. “Where are these pills? I’d like to try one.”“I haven't found them yet,” Claude said, sounding a little crestfallen, “And I’ve looked thro

Matteo became even more furious. "Do you have any idea who I am?!""I do. You’re Dr. Matteo," Adrian replied, his tone dripping with disdain.This response caught Matteo off guard. Despite Adrian recognizing him, the lack of reverence on Adrian’s part was too audacious for his liking. He could not let it pass."I demand to see Axel.""Sorry," Adrian answered flatly, "You won't be able to see him.""But I must!" Matteo seethed with anger and embarrassment. He had never encountered such impertinence—someone who dared to defy his wishes.Hendrick, fighting back the urge to laugh, kept his head down. He was wary of Matteo's short fuse that might flare up if he showed any disrespect.However, Adrian remained composed. "Dr. Matteo, it's not that I'm unwilling to assist, but I simply can’t. If you insist on seeing Mr. Axel...""Axel and I have an agreement," Matteo haughtily declared. "It's time for him to fulfill his end of the bargain. None of this concerns you in any way."Adrian

Hendrick, who had since become completely convinced of Adrian's authority and was willing to comply with his orders, did not wish to see Adrian hurt.As he pumped his fists in the air, he shouted, "Take him down!""Can you show some decorum, you old coot?" Matteo felt a pang of annoyance.With Adrian backing him, Hendrick stood tall, no longer subservient to Matteo. "There's no need for courtesy when dealing with intruders. Not tearing you apart is already a mercy."Matteo was dumbfounded. A mere majordomo, dressed like a humble farmer, dared to challenge him?!Hearing Hendrick's words, Adrian lost his desire to fight. He had already proven Ezra's inferiority, forcing him to retreat step by step."Leave!" he growled.With a gentle push of his hand, Adrian sent Ezra flying. If not for Ezra's quick reflexes, he would have met the ground face-first.Matteo's expression soured. He realized that the rumors that Adrian possessed great fighting skills were true, and he no longer dared

A particular illness? Lionel had not heard of such an occurrence as it had not existed in Navia. He was a cautious person, and if he had not personally witnessed something, he would not outright deny its existence.He looked to Adrian, indicating he had no more information to contribute, and briskly left the hall.Adrian chuckled lightly. "Dr. Matteo, I don't mean to challenge your expertise, but the Herb Compendium, is that a book you authored?""Yes, it is." Matteo shone with pride. "That's the culmination of my life's work. It's a legacy. I personally tested each item in it through numerous experiments."Adrian smiled approvingly. ‘What a responsible physician,’ he thought.He then said, "But the book clearly stipulates that only the roots of the Wyldeweed should be used medicinally. The leaves should never be utilized."Matteo was struck speechless.Bucky, unable to contain his laughter, ran out to the courtyard. The sounds reached the hall, making the atmosphere awkward.A

Adrian felt a tinge of disappointment, though he acknowledged some progress had been made. Sensing Rozi's dejection, he held her hand and offered an encouraging smile.Matteo was greatly surprised. Green Plum Grass was a prized possession in Debonaire, and even he seldom had access to it. Adrian's request for it led him to speculate that Adrian aimed to seize it."I suggest you forget about it," Matteo said loudly, "Mr. Leeroy won’t part with the Green Plum Grass unless it's a matter of life or death.""I need the Green Plum Grass to save someone," Rozi insisted, "Mr. Leeroy wouldn't be unwilling to help in such a critical situation, right?"Matteo hesitated to speak, knowing that Rozi had no chance of obtaining such potent medicinal herbs since she belonged to the Sun Tribe. The social hierarchy in Debonaire was strict, and the lives of the Sun Tribe members were undervalued. Yet, he dared not voice this out loud. Witnessing Adrian's remarkable strength moments ago, Matteo thought

Just then, Claude walked into the hall. Matteo breathed a sigh of relief. Being doubted by others was truly uncomfortable. After he proved his identity and recovered the Sol Pills, he decided to not stay a moment longer."Here's a thousand chrystals," Matteo declared haughtily, "The goods are also at your doorstep. Please have someone verify them."Adrian was surprised. Matteo's swift desire to leave was probably due to the shame he had endured. He asked, "Are you not going to stay for a few days, Dr. Matteo?""I have other matters to attend to," Matteo said, unable to bear Adrian's disdain.Claude was worried. Matteo would normally stay at Medicis Manor for about ten days to half a month, deciding on the supplies for the next year."Dr. Matteo!" Claude called out, "Do you not want to do business with us anymore?"Matteo gave no response, climbed into his carriage, and left.Adrian comforted Claude, "Don't worry too much. Several people have contacted me to buy medicinal herbs.

"There’s no Wyldeweed left!" Randy suddenly erupted into loud sobs, rolling across the ground and grabbing nearby stones to strike his head.Hendrick attempted to restrain him, but Randy exhibited unexpected strength. He pushed Hendrick away and continued to harm himself.Adrian was alarmed, but he swiftly slapped Randy, rendering the man unconscious. Adrian now understood that if addicts could not access Wyldeweed, they would opt for self-destruction.Adrian urgently called for Lionel. After Lionel inserted a few silver needles into Randy, the latter stirred. He looked disoriented, surprised by his surroundings. "How did I get here?"Hendrick, displeased, remarked, "You owe Mr. Adrian your gratitude. Without his intervention, you might’ve died."Randy quickly knelt to express his gratitude.Adrian gestured for him to leave. "Don't come back here. There's no Wyldeweed in Medicis Manor. If you ever struggle with your addiction again, tie yourself up immediately."Randy nodded obe
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2125
After reading the notice that Medicis Manor put up, no one dared to enter casually. They just loitered around the perimeter, leaving Claude feeling anxious and restless. Claude went to find Adrian. "This isn't right. The constant cries and howls are putting everyone in a bad mood,” he said.Adrian noticed Rozi was sporting panda-like eyes, probably from lack of sleep. "They're a nuisance. Can't they understand plain words?” she said."I'll think of a solution." Adrian rubbed his temples in frustration. "Why do they insist on being as persistent as flies?"Lionel strongly opposed, "I want to take them in. I've gained some insights now. Maybe I can help them recover." He looked at Adrian with a pleading expression. "But I need your help. Can you assist me?""No problem." Adrian readily agreed, already understanding what Lionel wanted. "You may use my authority to intimidate them, but it won't be that easy."Lionel looked smug as he replied, "If you're willing to help, half the bat

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 Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4811
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4807
"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
