The Return of the War Legate Chapter 3128
"One hundred percent Silverboan..." As Harriett grasped the implications of Adrian's words, he felt like he had something lodged in his throat. Though he had had his suspicions and knew they were likely true, he clung to a glimmer of hope. How could someone like Adrian become friends with his daughter?"How did you two meet?" Harriett asked in a deep voice.Regardless of whether the young man before him was the legendary great fiend or not, he knew he had to inform Sid about this, even if it was another misunderstanding. It turned out that what Sid said before about the problem was not groundless speculation. The old man had indeed noticed something was wrong. Harriett had just been too foolish to realize it.Just then, the door of the room opened, and a waiter walked in, starting to serve the food."Mr. Harriett, the food is served. Shouldn't we put an end to this?" Adrian asked.Harriett broke out in a cold sweat. From what Adrian said, Adrian seemed to have read his mind."Fat

Harriett tacitly understood the situation. As he breathed a sigh of relief, he also sensed that the upcoming situation would be very troublesome."Please wait outside, Estelle. I need to discuss official matters with Mr. Adrian," Harriett instructed.Estelle was momentarily stunned and felt suddenly hurt. After all, she had brought Adrian here—didn't she have the right to listen in?"Leave, now," Harriett said firmly, displaying a rare seriousness towards his daughter, which startled Estelle. Following his command, she stood up and exited the private room.Once his daughter had departed, Harriett turned his gaze back to Adrian, staring intently at him. In a deep and low voice, he inquired, "Are you the one who captured Leafall?""That's correct," Adrian confirmed, lifting his teacup for a sip before setting it down.Harriett's complexion suddenly paled, and he asked solemnly, "Did you approach my daughter intentionally...?""It wasn't deliberate. Our meeting seemed fated," Adria

"I hinted for you to let Estelle leave. Don't you understand what I mean? I truly consider her a friend and have no intention of harming her. Therefore, once you assist me in achieving my objective, I will ensure that both you and Estelle can lead prosperous lives and even depart from this troubled place," Adrian remarked casually.He was already being lenient with Estelle. While Adrian saw her as a friend, he recognized the urgency and significance of his mission. Towards Estelle, Adrian's motives leaned more towards utility. Before accomplishing his goal, Adrian wouldn't permit Estelle and Harriett to depart. However, after seizing Sandstone, he was prepared to offer them some assistance.Harriett forced a bitter smile and spoke calmly, "How can I assist you?""In the next three days, Sable Emblem and the Unicorn Society will initiate attacks on other gangs within Leafall, leading to a final showdown between the two. During this period, your garrison should refrain from intervenin

After subduing Harriett, Adrian's influence within Sandstone City peaked. With control stretching from the southern Sable Emblem to the eastern Unicorn Society, alongside the forces of the governor's mansion and the garrison, nearly half of Sandstone fell under his sway. However, among these factions, only Sable Emblem and Unicorn Society possessed the capability to assault the city's barrier. Harriett and Terry primarily played supporting roles. Harriett had to tolerate the expansion of these two groups within Sandstone and minimize his intervention while managing the other factions. This task proved exceedingly challenging. Thus, Adrian instructed Terry to collaborate with him and ensure that Harriett retained his position as garrison instructor.Another day passed, and tensions within Sandstone intensified. Harriett found himself summoned by Sid and Carson. Initially, conflict erupted between Sable Emblem and the Unicorn Society, albeit with Adrian's tacit approval. However, it w

Carson regarded Terry silently, awaiting his explanation."The members of those gangs are ordinary people with little to lose. Their approach to warfare differs from ours. The outcome holds less significance to them; it's merely a shift in leadership. Consequently, dissent is inevitable. They seek to bolster their own power amid the chaos, irrespective of the war's ultimate victor. Their influence upon Sandstone cannot be overlooked,” Terry offered in explanation.Carson pondered Terry's words, finding merit in the analysis. "Indeed, based on the information gleaned from gang members, they all espouse aspirations for recognition and accomplishment."Although Harriett and Terry hadn't coordinated their statements, their astuteness guided their responses."Recognition and accomplishment? Absurd, considering their capabilities." Carson scoffed derisively.Harriett and Terry exchanged a knowing glance. Carson's dismissive tone indicated he had accepted their explanations. Both men bre

On the evening before the week-long deadline agreed upon by Adrian and Quintin, all the previously dispersed Elite Forces members returned to Adrian's side, convening at the headquarters of Sable Emblem. Despite Sable Emblem's rise to prominence as one of Sandstone City's major forces, they hadn't yet relocated from their headquarters due to Adrian's incessant push for chaos.Upon the arrival of the fifty people, Clement and his companions were nearly petrified with fear. Though those with moderate strength managed to maintain some semblance of composure, when an eighth-level expert like Marcel laid eyes on them, they still lost their wits. Each person who came was an eighth-level expert at the pinnacle stage. These fifty formidable individuals could very well annihilate Sandstone City without the help of the army.Clement sensed that something was awry. Although these individuals could speak the language of Obscura City, a significant portion of them had peculiar intonations and ton

"You simply need to continue your attacks on the other gangs as before. You're already embroiled in an intense conflict with Universe Brotherhood, aren't you?" Adrian remarked with a light chuckle."Is that all?" Clement was somewhat taken aback, failing to grasp Adrian's intentions."Yup," Adrian replied succinctly."And what about the other two barriers?" Clement inquired."Those will be handled by the Unicorn Society," Adrian casually responded.Clement took a couple of steps back, visibly shocked. ‘The Unicorn Society?’ He fell silent, deep in thought.That day, Unicorn Society suddenly launched an assault on Sable Emblem, claiming they had taken down Clark. Clement had felt a twinge of indignation at the time, knowing it was Adrian who had orchestrated Clark's downfall. Yet, the Unicorn Society had shamelessly claimed credit and even encroached upon Scarlet Star's territory—territories rightfully belonging to Sable Emblem.Upon reflection, the Unicorn Society had clearly be

"Your Majesty, the barriers within the city remain intact," a soldier reported to Quintin.Quintin gazed up at the sky, then waved, signaling his understanding. "Still no progress?" he muttered to himself.Unaware of Adrian's actions within the city, Quintin understood that the situation inside posed challenges even for Adrian. Hearing the news of the barriers' security, Quintin didn't dwell on it. The delay of a week was inconsequential; he had ample time. Sandstone City stood as the greatest impediment to his conquest of Obscura. Overcoming it was imperative. Victory in the war was assured, just the method of achievement remained in question.Dispatching Adrian reflected Quintin's desire for a flawless victory. If Adrian failed, Quintin wouldn't be disheartened. Opening the heavily guarded barriers within Sandstone within a week was a feat even Quintin believed he couldn't accomplish. Adrian was chosen simply because he was Adrian."No, he will succeed," Quintin murmured and chuc

The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4815
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
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4814
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

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
