The Return of the War Legate Chapter 672
Just as Blade was about to lead a few men down to the hidden room, a silhouette rushed out from within.“Be careful!” Adrian shouted.The person down there was so quick that Blade could not react in time. Adrian quickly pulled Blade backward when he saw that the person was about to attack him. Then, the person came out of the hidden room, dressed in white and wearing a ponytail.The person had no plans of staying there for much longer and quickly dismantled the soldiers and beat them unconscious.“Bye-bye, my friends from Wyvern Peak.”The voice definitely belonged to a woman, and she instantly disappeared, followed by a cloud of smoke.“Get down!” Adrian said.Everyone’s first instinct upon hearing this was to lay low, while Adrian turned around to evade the incoming attack. An explosion happened right after, but nobody was hurt since the blast radius was small.As the smoke subsided, Blade angrily yelled, “F*ck! It was a woman! How dare she get in our way! I’m going to make h

The woman was shocked.She thought that Adrian would still be at the church. How could he have possibly gotten ahead of her?After identifying Adrian, the woman slowly lowered her dagger and pursed her lips. “Hey, Legate, what are you doing here so late at night? Are you trying to stop a helpless little woman like me?”Adrian gestured. “Hand over that book.”The woman quickly hid the book behind her back when she heard this.“It’s not even yours, so finder’s keepers,” she coldly replied.Adrian jumped down from the rock and walked toward the woman, causing the latter to retreat a little. Soon, he stood before her and carefully studied her before asking, “What’s your name? Why did you show up here?”“My name?” the woman chuckled as she said, “Prepare to be shocked when you hear my name…“I’m Bloody Rose’s top assassin—Ivy Cox!“Are you quaking in your boots yet?”“Bloody Rose, you say?” Adrian mumbled.That name sounded familiar to him.Bloody Rose was an organization simila

“Y-You b*stard… You actually hit me. You…”Ivy’s mouth hung open as she found it difficult to breathe.Once she could breathe normally again, her face turned pale as she said, “Don’t you know you shouldn’t hit a woman in the stomach, you b*stard? I’ll never forgive you if you damage my uterus!”Adrian did not seem to be bothered by what she said as he reached out for the book. Ivy tightened her grip around it and took a few steps back to avoid his hand.“You’re no match for me, so give it up. Just give me the book and you can leave.”“In your dreams!”Ivy trembled as she struggled to stand up, but her face was filled with anger as she said, “You think I’d give you the book after you’ve hit me? Do you really think I’m going to let you stand there and bully me?”Adrian sent a huge slap across Ivy’s face the moment she said this, leaving the latter dumbfounded. She covered her face with one hand and seemed to be in a daze.Never in her life had she been beaten by a man. Yet, she w

Meanwhile, Ivy got up and gave Adrian a death stare.Sometimes, a woman’s determination to get vengeance was much stronger than a man’s.In fact, it was clear based on Ivy’s gaze that she was not going to swallow the humiliation she had just suffered that easily.***Adrian was slowly disappearing into the forest thanks to the darkness of the night.When Ivy stood up, a woman’s voice spoke to her through her communicator, “What happened, Ivy? Did you get it? Have you completed your mission?”Ivy said icily, “I did manage to get it, but War Legate Draco showed up and stopped me. I was no match for him. He managed to take the package with him.”“What? This is unacceptable! We must get the book or Louisa is finished!”“I’m heading back now so that we can come up with another plan.”Ivy turned around and left.***After Adrian obtained the book, he informed Mya and the others to return after cleaning up the church. Meanwhile, he headed to the Battle Warrior Department in Swallow

Nobody interrupted him for even a second, and Adrian ended up engrossed with the book.“Nadine is going to die.”“Draco is going to go missing.”“Mya is going to leave Wyvern Peak.”“The ten battle warriors will die gruesome deaths.”“Millions of valiant soldiers from Dragon Peak shall rise up.”There were countless more prophecies and countless more insults.It was as if Hannibal was laughing at Wyvern Peak, or even cursing them. Or perhaps, he was trying to bring it up to greater heights. Regardless, the prophecies written in the book were not completely false.It was possible Hannibal had indeed come across some kind of unknown knowledge on seers when he wrote this book.At midnight the next day, Adrian sat in his seat and remained deep in thought for a very long time before he finally picked up a lighter and burned the book.The book eventually became a pile of ashes as it burned away.“Sir!”Mya suddenly knocked on the door at that moment and pushed the door open befor

Mya took a deep breath and looked at Adrian.“I understand, sir. You’re saying that runes are terrifyingly lethal weapons that can be created.”Adrian nodded. “Correct. This old book mentioned a man by the name of Craig Alexander who owned a sword forged with runes. It is said that his sword possessed the power to destroy planets.“Simply put, rune masters would inscribe a few runes onto a weapon that can be freely used by charging it with human technology and a complex string of codes that act as the calibrator. It’s the same as a cell phone’s Bluetooth or charging functions. However, runes are much more complex and mysterious.”“Ah, I get it now.” Mya seemed enlightened.“But why would such a thing appear in the church’s hidden room? Do you know how to activate the runes, sir?” she asked as she pointed to the metal piece in Adrian’s hand.Adrian took a careful look at it and touched the patterns on it before saying, “I used to think that the old book’s records were without scie

“What do you mean?”Mya was extremely confused and urged Adrian to tell her more.“There’s no such thing as humans being able to predict the future. That’s not something that not even Jesus himself could do.”“I know that, and the only way to explain it is that Hannibal got lucky.”“Lucky? Do you have any idea how lucky he had to be to do what he did? There are heaps upon heaps of humans in the world, but he said Draco was going to become the legate of Wyvern Peak, and it really did come true. I’d say it’s too much of a farce to call that luck.”“What are you trying to say, sir?” Mya asked in surprise.Adrian remained silent for a moment before he looked up. He seemed rather stunned when he said, “Hannibal’s still alive.”“What?!”Mya stumbled a few steps back when she heard this. She looked at her surroundings before saying, “Are you joking, sir? Hannibal was alive when Wyvern Peak was founded by our ancestors, and he was already in his seventies at the time. It’s been more th

Adrian remained silent for a moment before he said, “These immortals that I speak of are capable of living past a thousand years old. Ten thousand, even. Since Hannibal’s a part of this, he must still be alive. We have to get to the bottom of this.”Mya said, “If all of this is true, we could never go up against an immortal. After all, everyone at Wyvern Peak is nothing more than a character in his game.”“I want you to keep this a secret from everyone else while I investigate. Also, make sure this piece of metal is stored safely. We mustn’t let anyone activate its powers, or the whole city might be destroyed.”“Understood.” Mya nodded in acknowledgment.At that moment, the landline rang. Mya reached out to grab the phone and said, “Yes?”“Madam, there’s trouble! Madam Legate has been kidnapped!” a voice said urgently from the other end of the line.“What?!” Mya was instantly stunned.Adrian, too, was shocked.“A group of highly trained women charged into One Jewel Road and abd
