"Yes, sir." Jacky chose not to say anything further when he saw how determined Adrian was. He turned around and said to his subordinates, "Prepare the NS Trinaga so that the legate can go out to sea with it tomorrow.""Yes, sir.""I'll arrange for a few people to go with you tomorrow, sir," Jacky added.However, Adrian shook his head. "I don't need a single one of your men. Just do your job and leave the rest to me. Also, don't worry about me. A new legate will be here to lead you all soon."Jacky took a deep breath, while Adrian said nothing more as he headed toward the pier. He sat down, facing the harbor in front of him, where tens of countries were within the outlands. Despite how vast the sea was, there were too many memories of the past in Adrian's mind about this place.For a moment, Adrian could not calm his heart.Shortly after, a woman appeared behind Adrian and said, "Um… General Jacky asked me to bring you some food and drinks, sir. Your room is ready too. You may go

"That's right! They say those who don't wish to become generals aren't decent soldiers, which is why my sister and I have been studying and training hard. We wish to surpass our limits when we take the test in two years.""I know you'll succeed in the test," Adrian said."Thank you!" Celene smiled. She then suddenly asked, "By the way, sir. The elders had agreed for you to carry on with your role, so why did you insist on retiring? Everyone's quite anxious now that Wyvern Peak doesn’t have a legate in charge."Adrian smiled and replied, "Take a guess."Celene chewed on her lip. "My guess is that you're trying to make use of this vacancy to attract everyone into being more passionate about taking up the role, causing them to work even harder, perhaps their best when the test arrives. You're doing this so that more outstanding talents will show up to the test, correct?""Looks like I really am too old to continue being in this position. You juniors have unknowingly surpassed me alre

As Adrian continued to sit there, Lincoln showed up shortly after. Adrian could guess who it was after hearing the sound of the footsteps behind him."You're no longer as young as you used to be, so are you sure you wish to spend the rest of your life this way?" he asked without even turning his head.There had been numerous veterans who have met unhappy endings throughout their life in Wyvern Peak, and there were many who were like Lincoln. Some of them chose to retire from the battlefield because of how much they missed their brothers. Some of them even lost their minds because of it. There are also some whose bodies crumbled from exhaustion after surpassing their limits when they were young. As a result, they were riddled with illnesses all over.Such was going to be Adrian's outcome when he got older. It was an inevitable shackle.Lincoln stood behind Adrian, dressed in his battle suit. It was an older version Wyvern Peak used to distribute, and Lincoln's had many stitch marks

Aside from their difference in personalities, Mya did resemble Gloria in many ways. Even their personalities were similar sometimes. Gloria was a woman who would bravely do or say whatever she wanted, completely fearless of the world. Even if God were to show up and challenge her, she would bravely accept it.It was exactly this personality of hers that stopped her from being able to drop her dignity and retreat from the island."Let's get on the boat."Adrian said nothing in retaliation, silently accepting the fact Mya would not leave him no matter what he said. Mya finally smiled and got on the boat with Lincoln.Behind them, Jackie yelled, "Salute!!!"With a thunderous "swoosh," the Wyvern Peak soldiers saluted the NS Trinaga.After Adrian got onto the boat, Jackie said, "The NS Trinaga is capable of diving underwater, so you can use it to retreat if the situation gets dire. It also has weapons built into it. I've asked someone to set the boat on autopilot to Isle 416. You may

Time passed quickly.A few days passed. Adrian, Mya, and Lincoln had already spent three full days out on the Sant Sea. NS Trinaga cruised forward in the direction of its destination. Sea conditions constantly changed in the past three days and the ship had encountered some small storms but thankfully, the waves died down after the storm.Mya stood on the deck and looked out into the sea in the distance. She turned her head and said to Adrian, “There’s still an hour to go. We’ll be leaving our waters soon and arriving at the international waters. I hope everything will be fine!”Isle 416 was located at the edge of the Sant Sea and it would require at least a week’s time to get there. The third leg of the trip would be the most dangerous. One would need to face more than just the weather upon arriving in international waters.“Doing okay there, Link?” Adrian turned his head to look toward Lincoln.Lincoln was old, his back bent and needed a cane to prop himself up. Upon hearing Adr

Adrian stood on the deck and looked ahead. Then, he leaped into the sea.One of the large ships was brightly lit. It was at the backmost position and it was the command center of the enemies. These ships were carrying Black Nergal’s banner, instantly revealing them as Black Nergal’s members.Meanwhile, a wild party was taking place in the atrium of the cabin of this backmost ship. A group of men and women were dancing with abandon and the music was deafening. A middle-aged man in furs was lounging on a leather sofa, accompanied by a young woman on each side while holding a glass that was filled with wine.At this very moment, a person walked into the cabin and said, “Commander Shadow, we have surrounded the other party’s ship. We checked the ship briefly and noticed that there weren’t many people on board.”The man wearing furs used the moniker “Shadow” and was one of Black Nergal’s naval leaders. An hour ago, they noticed the presence of a ship in their surrounding area and Shadow
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 833
Shadow never expected the opposing party to have already boarded his ship, exuding murderous intent, while he was still planning on his first move. Even when his subordinates aimed their weapons at him, the Navien war legate did not seem to panic in the slightest bit.On the contrary, he took a step forward and exuded a murderous intent so strong that one could feel it wherever they stood. A number of women in the atrium screamed and fled.Shadow was glued to his sofa, large droplets of sweat dripping from his face. No one in the past had the courage to provoke him in these waters, so much so that he felt like he was unparalleled in this world. However, a feeling of uneasiness and panic began to creep into his heart the very moment Adrian walked in.“Dra…Draco, what brought you here? Black Nergal harbors no enmity against you, So why are you…” Shadow grew restless and constantly beckoned his subordinates with his eyes in an attempt to launch a surprise attack on Adrian.Adrian stop

The corner of Adrian’s lips suddenly curled into a cold sneer. In the next moment, a loud bang was heard. Adrian pierced through the floor deck with his foot as if he had channeled a load of force into his leg.Rumble!The ship swayed violently and a gush of seawater surged into the ship. The whole ship shook left and right violently until everyone on board lost their footing and fell to the ground.Water surged into the atrium. Shadow was astounded, never expecting something like this to happen, all his men toppling over from the swaying of the ship and the sudden surging of seawater. The scene was thrown into chaos.“Shoot him dead!” roared Shadow.Bang, bang, bang!The sound of gunshots rang out but these people were utterly incapable of standing steady. The ship thrashed violently and many of the bullets hit Shadow’s own people.Splat! Splat!The sound of bullets penetrating people’s bodies was heard constantly as people collapsed to the ground one by one.Shadow panicked

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 Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
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
