The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2888
Howard was stunned. All he wanted to ask was how to deal with the ghost. Unexpectedly, Anthony had figured out the ghost’s origin.Howard surveyed Adrian and frowned, asking, "Where did this guy come from?"Anthony's gaze subconsciously turned toward the Wainwright family who was standing nearby. Howard noticed the shift in Anthony's eyes, and then he realized why Adrian looked so familiar. Adrian was the mysterious person who saved Lucy. He had not taken the mysterious person seriously, and Marc had no intention of revealing the other party's identity, so Lucy was still in the dark. Howard had been very satisfied with this.Howard glanced at the more than one hundred people who were all looking at him. He smiled and said, "So it was you who brought the ghost aboard. What should we do with you now?"He didn't want others to know Adrian's identity, so he took the initiative to change the subject.Anthony hurriedly said, "We’ve prepared a boat for him and he’s willing to leave volun
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2889
Adrian looked over the side of the ship and asked, "The small boat down there is for me?"Anthony nodded. "There are enough supplies on board for you to reach the coastline of Obscura."Adrian nodded back. "Okay." He then jumped over the railing and into the boat.Adrian wasn’t confident that Autumn would not catch up to him. The current situation indicated that the other party intended to stop him from reaching Obscura, but neither side had enough power to significantly influence the other. Autumn might choose to absorb the fear of the ship passengers to gain more power before going after Adrian. The ship would take over a day to reach Obscura, and with Adrian using a small boat, he would take even more time to reach the city. Therefore, Autumn could linger on the ship for a while before coming after Adrian. This was why Adrian felt pessimistic about Autumn leaving the ship. However, he had no way to deal with Autumn at the moment, so leaving was the only measure he could take. A

Adrian saw the woman on the stern deck in the distance, and his brows furrowed together. ‘Isn’t that the girl I rescued?’But Adrian ignored Lucy and continued rowing away.Lucy wasn’t discouraged by this though. She looked around and noticed that some crew members were closing in on her. They might discover her soon, so she quickly slipped off her cumbersome dress, and underneath was something like a nightgown. She then jumped the railing and plunged into the sea.Splash!The water churned as Lucy once again dropped into the sea. After a little struggle, she broke the surface and started paddling toward the small boat.*Back inside Alfie’s room, the atmosphere was tense. They didn't know when the ghost would appear again, but because of Adrian's caution, they cowered in their room and didn't dare to step outside."Did you guys hear that?" Alfie suddenly asked his companions."It sounded like the sound of someone falling into the water," another person answered in a trembling

Lucy got closer and closer to Adrian. As she approached the small boat, the figure of the man before her became clearer.“I feel like I've seen him somewhere before,” Lucy murmured to herself, “But I don't think I know him. Otherwise, I would've already beaten him up!"Instead of saving her, Adrian went in the opposite direction. Therefore, she was determined to give him a piece of her mind once she got on board.Just as she was about to reach the boat, the young man turned to look at her. Lucy hurriedly suppressed her annoyance and waved to him."I'm here. Could you please pick me up?" she called out.Adrian smiled, shook his head, and then began to row the small boat forward. Initially, the boat was simply drifting on the water. However, now it seemed to gain speed, swiftly bypassing Lucy and closing in on the cruise ship.As the small boat moved away, the waves it created almost caused Lucy to sink under the water. Struggling to stay afloat, she turned around to see Adrian's b

Lucy's face sank when she saw them. She thought that she might as well die than face Howard again.Larissa's eyes were sharper than those around her, and her face paled when she saw the despairing expression on her daughter’s face."Save her! What are you waiting for?1" Howard shouted at Anthony. Startled, Anthony hurriedly called the people in the cockpit to turn the ship around."It's too late. It’ll take at least five minutes to turn the ship around. Lucy will be dead by then," Marc said, his face pale.Even if he and Larissa jumped into the water to save Lucy, it would take several minutes to get close to her. In other words, Lucy's fate was sealed. Just when everyone was in despair, they suddenly heard the sounds of water splashing nearby."How is that guy's boat so fast?" A person leaning on the left railing muttered as he looked down at the sea below.Larissa and the others turned to look and saw a small boat speeding toward the direction of Obscura City."He's using
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2893
Larissa was determined to protect everyone present. However, she realized in the next moment that there was no way she could defend against the wall of sword energies in front of her. Boom!The several dozen-meter-tall ship toppled over, and a menacing cross-shaped crack appeared on its hull. Fortunately, Adrian had not exerted all his strength, so the ship had not completely capsized. After the ship regained stability, the waves churned vigorously and created quite a commotion on the sea surface.The ship swayed, and the people on board were in a precarious state. As the boat rocked, over a hundred people on the stern deck were struggling to maintain their balance. Some even resorted to lying on the ground to prevent themselves from being thrown overboard. Some would have fallen into the water if someone wasn’t holding onto them.The situation on the stern deck was dire, and the people in the rooms were not faring much better. Autumn’s sudden appearance had caused everyone on the
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2894
Larissa had no other choice right now. When Adrian drew his sword, Lucy sunk into the waves. Although the cruise ship had already stopped, it would still take some time to turn around and rush to Lucy's side. Even if they could make it to her before she drowned, they still needed time to get her out of the water. Their only hope now was to get Adrian to forgive them and get him to turn back and rescue Lucy.However, Adrian did not see it that way. He shook his head impatiently and said, "Since she's your only daughter, you should have protected her. This isn't the first time this has happened."He rowed away, showing no intention of rescuing Lucy.Larissa and Marc's faces turned pale. As for the other passengers around them, they dared not speak to Adrian anymore after his attack. After all, they did not want to offend him and have him slice the ship in half."Adrian? That name rings a bell!" Marc suddenly recalled something. Although he had heard Adrian's name from the crew earlie
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 2895
"It's been so long. Why hasn't he come back yet?" Larissa asked while gripping the railing tightly, her eyes fixed on the distant sea.Marc and Sammy were equally worried.Howard summoned a crew member and asked about the damage to the ship's hull. He learned that although the ship had not suffered fatal damage, repairing the damage to the hull would require a lot of money.His face sank. Despite knowing it was wrong, he silently wished that Adrian would never return.Meanwhile, Adrian had dived down hundreds of meters and reached Lucy. Then, he formed a shield with his energy and created a space for her to breathe. However, Lucy had lost the ability to breathe autonomously.Adrian held onto her and slowly floated toward the surface.In her daze, Lucy vaguely saw a familiar figure. Her eyes widened abruptly, and with Adrian's help, she coughed out some seawater and laboriously said, "It’s you, you bastard!" Adrian responded casually, "I've saved you twice, so why do you still c

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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
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

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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4808
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
