The iron-armored spider's head swiveled 180 degrees in vain, unable to find Adrian.With steely resolve, Adrian delivered a crushing stomp that shattered the spider's neck, sending sparks flying. Steel fragments severed circuits, extinguishing the red glow in its eyes.Upon destroying the spider's head, it seemed to go berserk. It relentlessly tracked Adrian, no matter where he moved.Evading another strike, Adrian calmly intercepted a cold shadow aiming for his face, gripping it with immense strength until it crumbled under his bare hands, embedding deeply into the steel.With a shout, Adrian spun and slammed the spider into the ground, creating a deep pit and stirring up dust. He then seized one of its legs, rendering it powerless as the crossbow bolts futilely fired around him.On the horizon, a convoy of armed off-road vehicles appeared, led by a stern-faced, burly man—the interim head of the Black King League's Dragoria headquarters, Dawid.Until now, he believed the league'
Ebonie's eyes flashed with madness and satisfaction as he roared, "Die!"An earth-shattering explosion erupted, flames shooting skyward. The shockwave left everyone's eardrums throbbing in pain."Is it over?" a soldier asked, shouldering an automatic rifle and gazing at the distant flames in shock.The older soldier beside him let out a sinister chuckle and said, "No one can survive such an explosion."Dawid wholeheartedly agreed. He knew better than anyone the terrifying power this weapon held. Within a hundred-meter radius of the explosion's epicenter, no one could have remained whole. Within five hundred meters, the shockwave would crush internal organs and brains alike to ensure death."Dawid! We're here. Where is the enemy?" someone shouted as two more ironclad units emerged."What?! The enemy was dealt with so quickly?" Jonas was stunned after hearing Dawid's explanation, though Emilia beside him flashed a knowing look."What? You don't believe me?" Dawid asked."Well..."
They all stared coldly at the mysterious man who had walked right into their trap. They were so focused on Adrian that they completely ignored the Armored Spider behind them, which was starting to move."Release General Dawid!" Jonas shouted. His expression was cold, but he was secretly overjoyed.At Jonas’ command, hundreds of soldiers aimed their weapons at Adrian, who remained calm and indifferent as if the surrounding soldiers were nothing to him.Despite his pain, Dawid began laughing loudly and glared at Adrian. "I know who you are. So, those worthless fools couldn't kill you after all. How about we make a deal? If you let me go, I'll ensure you leave here safely. How about that?"Suddenly, terrified screams erupted from the soldiers."Get away! That monster is moving!""Damn it! Arrows have no effect on it! Use grenades to blow it up!""Ahhh! Die, monster!"The surrounding soldiers looked around in confusion.Dawid was taken aback and asked, "What's happening? What..."
Suddenly, another tremor shook the surroundings. Ivory steadied himself, but his face darkened with anger. He delivered a resounding slap and cursed loudly, "Idiot! Do you think General Dawid is rescuing us right now?"The assistant silently covered his cheek.Ivory shouted hoarsely, "If this gets out, not only will the Black King League suffer, but your families will be hunted down in fear!" His words terrified everyone.As the tremors intensified, a deathly silence fell over Ivory. He knew his death was imminent but refused to acknowledge it. Filled with hatred and regret, he stared at a vial of pale blue potion on the experiment table and fell silent. After a while, he trembled slightly and reached out to take it."What's happening, Ivory? Why is the experimental area locked down? Get me David and Ebonie!" A deep, heavy voice suddenly rang out, interrupting his actions.Ivory quickly turned around, his face filled with ecstatic joy. "Mr. Sami, you've finally awakened!" he excla
"Mr. Sami, please spare me!" Ivory pleaded.Suddenly, the tightly shut metal gates burst open with a thunderous crash. Amidst the choking smoke, a figure gradually became clear. It was Adrian."You're the intruder who killed Ebonie? How is it just you? Where are the others? Bring them out!" Sami demanded, surveying Adrian with a malicious grin. He had no interest in knowing Adrian's name since he planned to kill him right there and then."Was it you who ordered the assassination on me?" Adrian asked, his brow furrowing slightly, sensing that Sami was quite a formidable fighter."Assassinate you? You killed four of my generals, and now you accuse me of trying to assassinate you?" Sami retorted."Not you then?" Adrian looked puzzled for a moment, but then calmly continued, "Anyway, it doesn't matter. All you have to know is that the headquarters of the Black King League in Dragoria will fall by my hands. From now on, the Black King League will cease to exist! This is the price you p
Adrian swiftly avoided Sami's attack and countered with a sweeping kick that knocked Sami to the ground with a heavy thud.Gritting his teeth, Sami growled, "Despicable scum… I'll skin you alive, tear you limb from limb, and make sure you spend the rest of your life as a cripple!""Heh, how ignorant!" Adrian sneered, seizing Sami's leg and crushing the bone with a powerful squeeze."Ahhh! I'll kill you!" Sami howled in pain, struggling to break free from Adrian's grip.Adrian's hands moved swiftly, striking at Sami's back with deadly precision. Despite Adrian's relentless assault, Sami's extraordinarily tough body withstood the blows that would have killed a regular person.Suddenly, Sami coughed up black blood, his face paling as his aura rapidly weakened. However, in the next moment, a surge of immense energy exploded from his body, visibly healing his wounds."Hahaha! You can't kill me! My body has been modified by the potion!" Sami laughed maniacally, kicking Adrian away and
Sami's headless body fell to the ground.Adrian smirked and activated the Requiem Aeternam to seal his power once more."Mr. Adrian, it seems you're less patient than I thought," a voice echoed.Adrian was stunned. He turned to Ivory and asked, "It's you?"“Hahaha, what if it is? I didn’t expect you to defeat Sami.” Ivory's desperate voice echoed through the shaking building. “Seems I’m doomed today. Well, let's all go down to hell together then!”The surroundings began to collapse slowly. Adrian glanced at Ivory but ignored him, focused on escaping.From behind, Ivory’s manic laughter faintly echoed. “Hahaha, give up! You’ll never escape!”At the last second, Adrian burst through the door.Boom!An explosion rocked behind him as Abry Hills collapsed. Rocks tumbled down, yellow dust billowing and swallowing the fleeing tanks. Moments later, a battered tank burst forth like a blazing meteor into the distance.Adrian, covered in dust and dirt, calmly watched Abry Hills collapse
"What?! All the generals are dead? And the Black King League was wiped out by one person? That's impossible!" Jayden exclaimed in disbelief upon hearing the news."Mr. Jayden, it's true. Adrian killed all the generals. There are many witnesses.""Adrian taking out the generals is believable. He was the powerful underworld king, after all," Jayden said, brows furrowed. "But taking out the entire Black King League on his own? I find that hard to believe.""But it's true. Just half an hour ago, all the officials of the Black King League in Silverboa fled. The Black Tiger Gang leader paid a hefty sum to get this news from one of them."Jayden was stunned, a terrifying thought crossing his mind. "Could Adrian really have destroyed the Black King League?"His confidant hesitated, then shook his head decisively. "Sir, while there are rumors, most people see it as a joke."Jayden composed himself. "Exactly! Adrian, alone without men or territory, destroying the Black King League? Absurd!
