The Return of the War Legate Chapter 3155
Lucky for him, others started to approach, and they were confused seeing Cleo in a hurry to leave."Ms. Libby, what's going on? Is there an issue with the man who came with you?" someone asked in suspicion.Everyone was being cautious right now. After all, liberating Sandstone was fraught with risks. Even if Silverboa did not have any concrete evidence in their hands, a mere decree from them could spell the downfall of these aristocrats.After Sid left, he glanced back and noticed that Libby and Adrian were now surrounded. This brought a slight sense of relief to him, and he began scanning the crowd for Carson. However, he could not find the latter no matter how hard he tried. With the situation now beyond salvage, whether Carson surrendered or not no longer mattered. Now, the only thing he had to do was to leave this place immediately. But Sid was still within Carson's territory, and Adrian might be observing his every move. Therefore, he could not afford to act rashly like leavi

Under such circumstances, what alternative path could he choose?"Don't trouble Ms. Libby, everyone. I guarantee with my life that she is one of us."She was indeed among them, but not one of them.Carson smiled bitterly.The surrounding nobles, upon seeing Carson, were momentarily stunned before bowing to him in succession. In their hearts, they still held a sense of awe toward him. Not only because he had always been the highest authority of the city, but also because in such circumstances, he could still cling to his beliefs and find a way to restore Sandstone. Just for this reason, he was worthy of their respect."My lord, but Ms. Libby...""Enough. I invited her here. Would I harm myself?" Carson said solemnly.The crowd finally quieted down. Carson was the host of this banquet, so he must have some grasp of the current situation. Even if he might betray them, he would not betray himself. So, no matter how many doubts there were about Libby, as long as she was trusted by th

"Speaking of which, we've known each other for fifteen years, haven't we?" Libby looked at Carson, her expression carrying a half-smile.Carson felt uncertain about the other party's standing in Silverboa, so momentarily unsure how to respond. "Indeed, it has been fifteen years," he finally replied, his tone tinged with doubt.When did Libby become connected with Silverboa? Just contemplating it made him feel as though he had been shortsighted. Sid was no exception. Carson realized that Libby's presence hinted at Silverboa's infiltration and scheming against Obscura for many years. Yet, they still intended to execute their plans at tonight's party. Who knew if there were others like Libby among the numerous nobles present?"Fifteen years ago, I arrived alone from Silverboa City to this place. Through the arrangements of various factions, I became one of the nobles of Sandstone. These fifteen years..."Carson's eyes widened. So she was from Silverboa City? A native? He recalled the

Sid tore off the prosthetic on his face, revealing his true appearance. His aura surged rapidly, transforming him from an old man on the brink of senility to the invincible Great Commander."If you want to stop me, go ahead and try, but be prepared to pay with your lives," he declared sternly.Sid knew the situation had reached its most perilous point. His only thought now was to break through the encircling foes and reach the city wall, hoping that Adrian remained unaware of his presence. However, such hopes seemed futile as Carson had undoubtedly betrayed them, leaving Sid with one final bid."Attack!" Megan's expression turned serious. Upon learning that Sid had indeed appeared at the banquet as Libby had foreseen, she knew a fierce battle awaited them. Thankfully, Libby had anticipated this and personally escorted Adrian to the venue. Otherwise, relying solely on their strength, detaining Sid would have been challenging."Kill him!" someone shouted, prompting over a dozen indiv

‘‘You move as swiftly as ever,’ Megan thought.Through her leader's previous words, Megan had already discerned that Adrian was someone who truly comprehended power. His ability to sense Origin Power was merely a matter of time. With his strength, he had already surpassed the formidable entity known as Ronan. Yet, after visiting Obscura City, he had once again advanced, officially ascending into a realm beyond human capability. It was truly terrifying.After unleashing the windblade tornado, Sid concealed himself within a nearby residential building before slipping into an adjacent alleyway. "I hope that slowed him down," he muttered despondently. Letting out a sigh, he glanced up blankly and was startled to see a figure suddenly materialize before him.“Was he already here earlier?” Sid pondered, somewhat puzzled. However, he had no time to dwell on his confusion.Adrian approached him with a smile, saying, "Long time no see."Sid chuckled bitterly. In truth, it hadn't been that

Sid, laying on the ground, fell silent."Take him back," Libby commanded, waving her hand.Megan stepped forward, hoisting Sid up from the ground. She securely bound him before escorting him away. Thus, in the dimly lit alley, only Adrian and Libby remained."You were already aware of my identity?" Libby inquired, meeting Adrian's gaze."From the very beginning," Adrian confirmed with a faint smile.Yesterday, upon encountering Megan, Adrian had pondered her intentions. However, with Libby's arrival, his focus shifted to her. There was something distinctly intriguing about her demeanor, particularly the reverence and admiration with which Megan regarded her, reminiscent of their previous conversation about Dark Moon’s leader."As the leader of Dark Moon, you managed to infiltrate Obscura for fifteen years?" Adrian turned to face her, his expression serious."It's not fifteen years; it's been thirty," Libby corrected him, surprising Adrian."Do you also possess the ability to ch

Adrian kept quiet about the events in the dark alley that night because they were too shocking for others to handle. As a resident of another Silverboa City, he had terrifying experiences. Even if he talked about them, no one might believe him.However, what happened to Elizabeth was equally significant. As an immortal, how many secrets did she know after living for over two hundred years, from before Silverboa City's founding to the present? What exactly had she experienced?According to Elizabeth, she befriended the city's first emperor and even aided in finding the relic beneath the Forbidden City. Though hailed as a founding hero and leader of Dark Moon, only the emperors knew her true identity, leaving her shrouded in mystery.That night, in addition to asking Adrian to accompany her to a certain relic, Elizabeth also shared information about the world changes she had mentioned earlier. Adrian had a deep impression of a conversation he had had with Megan back in Oakwood City. S

Adrian even felt that Quintin's methods were too lenient. After all, he was waiting for others to make mistakes first. If Adrian were to handle these matters himself, even those who didn't harbor thoughts of restoring Sandstone City would be secretly recruited by him. As long as they had similar ideas, even if it was just a seed of thought, Adrian would have them killed. Quintin’s method was too obvious to capture them.But for now, Quintin was the commander. Perhaps he was also considering a more long-term approach, so he did not use overly aggressive methods. Although some people died, in the process, one person who should have died actually survived and lived relatively well. That person was Carson. After a terrifying night, he thought he would be executed like the nobles who attended the banquet. But after a few days, the people who were supposed to capture him didn't show up. This left Carson puzzled, so he tentatively sought out Libby, only to find that she was no longer there.

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 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
