Elaine pursed her little lips. “Can’t the legate leave retirement of his accord? If it’s all over for us, he’ll most certainly be doomed as well, right?”Alan frowned and said, “You know nothing. Even when it’s over for us, it’s not over for him. By then, he’ll take all the members of Wyvern Peak to Wyvern Hall with him and no one will be able to touch him.”Elaine was scared out of her wits.“All right. Go, now,” Alan urged her.Upon saying that, Alan dashed downstairs.Elaine did not have the courage to linger and hurriedly left. She headed to Swallowston to find Adrian.***Two days later, the major media stations reported news about Internal Affairs losing four more locations and that the outlanders had advanced further by a few ten miles. They had occupied a number of towns.The Internet boiled over in panic when the news came out. Everyone was terrified and shaking in fear. There were already many people bawling loudly.This morning, there were very few people on the str
Adrian and Samantha left under Elaine’s watchful eyes.War Legate Draco was already idling away his time without any intention of protecting his homeland.Elaine could not help being stunned. ‘Is it all over?’Chase was incapable of carrying the burden of protecting the country. If not War Legate Draco, who else was capable of protecting all this?Elaine began to question her conscience.Whose fault was it that this was all happening?***Adrian and Samantha headed back to One Jewel Road.Adrian did not say a word on their way home. On the other hand, Samantha stretched out her hand to turn on the radio and listened to the breaking news of Novemtom.The radio stations were constantly reporting about the invasion of the moat, the loss of Prefect Sentries, and how many people had died.A large number of people were crying on the streets.“Are you really not going to do anything?” Samantha turned her head and looked at Adrian as she listened to the journalist reporting the war
Could a tree grow strong and sturdy without its roots?Everyone was stunned.Everyone was astounded.A few months ago, the online community was scolding War Legate Draco, and countless people had called for him to leave Wyvern Peak.A few months later, the natural moat was invaded after War Legate Draco vanished without a trace.Everyone remembered War Legate Draco and begged for his return to save them.When these reactions were set off, everyone felt extremely embarrassed and regretful. Those people who used to publicly criticize Draco and tried to get rid of him were remorseful. It was because their families, wives, and children would not have died if Draco was still around.“Aaah!”Some people began to go hysterical.One could hear voices calling out to War Legate Draco throughout the streets. A chain reaction was set off, with more people joining in and calling out endlessly on the streets.They were crying and calling out.“War Legate Draco!”“Where’s the legate?”“C
“Come on, everyone. Follow me to Jewel Road. We shall seek out War Legate Draco and beg him to leave retirement!” Elaine shouted.Countless people were in shock. Everyone inhaled a deep breath, raised their fists high, and shouted, “Let’s go! Let’s seek out War Legate Draco!”“Let’s seek out War Legate Draco, everyone!”“Let’s seek out the legate!”“Let’s go, let’s go!”Everyone turned around and ran to One Jewel Road.Elaine wiped her tears as she witnessed the scene before her eyes and said, “I’m sorry, Adrian. This is the only way I have in this desperate situation. I’ll surrender myself to your punishment when this is over.”Upon saying that, she leaped off the platform and followed the crowd to One Jewel Road.***A sensation was created in the country on this day.The news flooded all channels one by one. “According to a source of information from Southrive’s Swallowston, War Legate Draco’s whereabouts have been found. More than a hundred thousand people in Swallowston
“War Legate Draco!”Calls for Adrian came from outside the villa at all times.In One Jewel Road’s living room, Samantha, Joanna, Nadine, Sarah, Ivy, Eira, Nyssa, and the others were waiting anxiously. Adrian still remained in his study and had not budged.The sounds of people shouting came from every direction outside. The vast majority of Swallowston’s people were rushing over in succession. Meanwhile, Samantha stood up, opened the door of the living room, and stepped outside. The crowd outside saw a pregnant woman walking out and their eyes shifted to her.Samantha made her way to the yard, her eyes fixed on these people. She said, “The legate is no God. He can’t save everyone. He tried to change everything in the past, but his efforts were in vain. Despite being a hero, he was regarded as a nobody. He never got to show his abilities in his life’s journey. He’s a man, a husband, and a father to a child who’s just about to be born, just like all of you.”The crowd gulped upon he
“He’s out!”“The legate is out!”“Hooray! War Legate Draco has finally come out!”Draco donned a black military suit—looking valiant and exuding a powerful, heroic bearing—had finally shown up before the people. This time, he was not wearing his face shield. His handsome face was chiseled to masculinity perfection and his indomitable, strong body exuded boundless murderous intent.Everyone was excited. Every single person was emotional beyond comparison.As he walked out, Ivy, Eira, Nyssa, Jenine, Emily, and the other ex-members of Bloody Rose followed behind him. They were dressed in Wyvern Peak’s battle suits and appeared domineering.“War Legate Draco!” the surrounding crowd shouted his name.His heroic bearing was overpowering and his presence was unparalleled.Adaline looked at her brother in tears as she beamed widely. Rue stood on the viewing deck upstairs and gazed at her son. She felt a storm of emotions in her heart. Joanna, Nadine, and Sarah were over the moon.The
“Battle Warrior Caine, cut off Luposia’s roving rebels at full force. Head into the desert and do not stop until your mission is accomplished. Completed it within five hours.”“Battle Warrior Steel, outflank Novemton and take Chase’s head.”Orders flew.“Set out!”“Yes, sir!”Boom, boom, boom!All departments sprung into action. All the troops rushed to the natural moat to engage the enemies at full speed. Everyone knew that War Legate Draco was back when they heard Adrian’s voice.The ever-victorious War Legate Draco was back!Adrian raised his head and said, “Ivy, lead your squad into Novemton. Work with Steel and break into Novemton before twelve noon tomorrow to subdue Chase.”“Yes, sir. Let’s go, sisters. To Novemton and to take Chase’s life!” Ivy shouted.“Yes, ma’am!” the women responded before they turned into shadows and vanished.Adrian turned his head and looked toward the villa. Samantha and Rue were standing on the viewing platform, looking at Adrian with tears
Chaos descended over the room as Daemon led his subordinates into the department. Many of the Internal Affairs’ higher-ups jumped to their feet, their fear evident.“Don’t act rashly, Wyvern Peak!”“This is Internal Affairs’ headquarters and not the place for you to be conceited.”“Get out of here!” The higher-ups roared.The soldiers led by Daemon surrounded the people. They lived in Novemton and quickly sprung into action by infiltrating the headquarters upon receiving War Legate Draco’s order. Meanwhile, Steel’s troop was on its way here. By then, War Legate Draco would be here in person.Daemon glanced at the surroundings and shouted fiercely, “You’ve spent a long time enjoying your position. It’s now time to pay the price for the peace of the country.”“What are you trying to do, Wyvern Peak’s rat?” Chase pointed at Daemon and questioned loudly.“What am I trying to do? I’m going to eliminate you,” said Daemon, enunciating his words clearly.“How dare you kill me when I
