Chapter 4672

Author: Celestial Clouds
Renee stared at Adrian, realizing that he had already thought through what he was going to say. She hadn’t expected him to be so prepared. This was truly surprising.

At this moment, Renee could only feel astonishment. Adrian was indeed more meticulous and careful than anyone else, ensuring that he could handle any unexpected situations better.

Basil’s pupils glinted with a cold light, seemingly dissatisfied with Adrian’s words. With a cold expression, he said, "What identity do you plan to use when you go on this mission, Sir Adrian?"

Adrian smiled. He hadn’t expected Basil to pose such a question about the roles of monarch and subject. He naturally didn’t want to be bound by any constraints, and Basil’s attempt to tie him down was futile.

Adrian replied calmly, "Whatever identity you wish to give me, I will accept, Your Majesty. However, in terms of numbers, I will need some people to accompany me as I can’t guarantee my safety without them. I certainly don’t have the ability to s

    Adrian remained composed and dignified, and Basil couldn’t help but laugh after a moment. "Haha! You are indeed an interesting person, Sir Adrian. I shall await the news of your victorious return."The two exchanged a curt nod, seemingly without any other intentions in mind.After leaving the main hall, Renee was astonished. "Sir Adrian, do you really only need 50,000 elite soldiers? Primeria’s forces are extremely fierce. If we’re not careful, it could be very dangerous. Plus, there are quite a few strong Fusions on their side. Maybe I should try to convince Father to send more reinforcements. Perhaps he could send someone along with you, like Mr. Ricky from earlier. He is quite strong. If he accompanies you, it might be a great help."Adrian smiled. "It’s fine. When saving people, fewer is better."At that moment, Adrian’s gaze was filled with a coldness. His killing intent surged, and he seemed ready to destroy everything in his path. Looking at him, Renee understood that his th

    As Adrian felt increasingly surprised, the air before him fell into stillness once more. The fluctuations that had occurred earlier were nowhere to be seen.Adrian’s gaze grew even more solemn. He couldn’t believe that something unknown was happening in his own territory. This certainly surprised him. It was hard to imagine what this hidden force was.Adrian extended his hand.Bang! Bang! Bang!The force struck the air, and violent energy exploded outward, causing the space to ripple once more. Yet, there was no response from the surroundings, leaving a chilling sense of fear.Adrian’s eyes narrowed. "What are you? Come out!" His tone was icy, unwilling to tolerate anything he couldn’t control in his territory. Anyone in his position would likely feel the same way.However, no matter how furious Adrian was, the air remained eerily still. It was as if everything had come to a standstill, leaving an atmosphere of both surprise and fear.Adrian remained calm, his gaze cold. He unde

    For Adrian, he wasn’t going to worry too much. After all, some things would eventually have an answer, and he knew he would investigate the oddities in this room sooner or later.Adrian had been here for quite a while, but he hadn’t discovered much. It seemed that the strangeness wasn’t as simple as it appeared on the surface.Now, he didn’t need to spend more time fretting over these details. He had missed these things before, and wasting time on them now seemed futile.Adrian walked out of the Sixth Courtyard and headed out of the palace. Renee was waiting for him outside. When she saw him arrive, her eyes filled with a mix of anticipation and reluctance. After all, Adrian was about to represent Ciawales in battle, and Renee wasn’t sure how to express her feelings.She had brought Adrian here hoping that he would stay in Ciawales, allowing her to help him get what he wanted—access to the royal library. But in the end, it would still depend on Adrian himself.Renee understood wha

    "Don't worry, Mr. Adrian. My father will definitely grant you a title to better lead the fifty thousand soldiers," Renee told Adrian, as if offering him peace of mind.Hearing this, Adrian smiled calmly and replied, "It's fine. Titles aren't important. Just give me a chance, and I can bring Ciawales to new heights."His words stunned Renee. Her gaze shifted, now focused on Adrian with newfound intensity.If what he said was true, and with Adrian at the helm, perhaps Ciawales would indeed experience an extraordinary transformation.Renee clearly recognized that Adrian possessed a unique and transformative power."I believe in you!"Suddenly, Renee spoke with unwavering conviction, her eyes reflecting a trust that bordered on reverence. She looked at Adrian as though he were the only divine being she could depend on.Adrian smiled slightly in response. "Thank you. Let's go. Don't worry. The Second Prince will be fine."Renee froze for a moment.Adrian's confident tone made it se

    Justin stared at King Basil, his voice humble as he spoke. "Father, now that Michael is missing, how should we handle this?"It was clear that Justin sought to address the matter directly, as the situation demanded urgent attention.The officials' nerves immediately tightened.They were uncertain of King Basil’s true intentions. His heart was inscrutable, and any misstep could lead to beheading.They understood this well, and so they chose to remain silent.King Basil fixed his gaze on Justin, his voice cold. "Michael is a prince of Ciawales. Since he has disappeared, we must search for him. Otherwise, it will be a disgrace to Ciawales."He paused before raising his voice suddenly, startling everyone.The atmosphere in the room grew tense as the officials braced themselves for his next words."Therefore, I have made a decision!" King Basil announced. "Send Mr. Adrian to rescue Michael. Mr. Adrian will be appointed as the first Nation Guardian."For a moment, everyone was stunn

    Renee couldn't quite grasp the importance of Adrian's newly granted title. Did it signify her father's full recognition of him?A first-rank ministerial position was no small matter, but it wasn't overwhelming either.The ambiguity surrounding it left people puzzled. Yet, Adrian remained completely unfazed, showing no concern for the situation unfolding before him.For Adrian, after all, a title was all that mattered. His leadership style was far from conventional—whether the soldiers chose to follow his orders or not was their business.If they didn't, though, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless."Mr. Adrian, what do you think? Are these elite troops sufficient? Michael's safety is now in your hands," King Basil asked, his eyes sharp but clouded, clearly gauging Adrian's response.The implication was clear: "I am entrusting fifty thousand elite soldiers to you. You must rescue my son. If you fail, don't expect mercy."Adrian met King Basil's gaze and responded with a fa

    "Your Majesty, I think Mr. Adrian is utterly disrespectful. His demeanor shows no regard for proper decorum," one of the ministers said hurriedly."Even if he can win battles in the future, I fear he will be uncontrollable," he added, casting doubt on Adrian's character.King Basil met the minister's gaze calmly and replied, "If you could win battles as he does, I wouldn't need to control you either. What do you think of that?"The minister froze at these words. He took a few timid steps back.The rest of the court fell silent, realizing King Basil's complete trust in Adrian. To him, it was as if Adrian were not an outsider at all.Many in the court couldn't understand King Basil's reasoning. What if Adrian betrayed Ciawales in the future? How would they handle that?As these concerns swirled, Renee softly reassured, "Father, please don't worry. I firmly believe that Mr. Adrian will weather all storms and return victorious."Her words reflected her absolute confidence in Adrian.

    Adrian stunned everyone with a simple statement.They couldn't comprehend his meaning. Was he claiming to have extensive military experience?The crowd stared at him, unable to grasp the source of his confidence."Mr. Adrian, you are indeed impressive. However, when it comes to warfare, I won't back down. I've been in the military for twenty years, making me a seasoned veteran. In terms of strategy and tactics, I shouldn't be lacking," Tyler Dennis declared, his dissatisfaction clear.Adrian smiled upon hearing this. It was exactly as he had anticipated. He knew gaining the respect of these soldiers and generals wouldn't be easy.To establish his authority among them, he had to make a bold statement. Without it, maintaining control in the long run would be nearly impossible."Sir Tyler, is it? Since you're so confident, how about we have a military competition?" Adrian suggested, his gaze steady as he addressed the general.Tyler was taken aback, momentarily stunned. He hadn't e

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?

    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.

    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

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

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.

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.

    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.

    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
