The Return of the War Legate Chapter 869
Upon hearing Adrian’s instructions, Winslow kept quiet for a moment. He then stood up and said, “Sir, this is my duty. I will put in my best efforts to figure out a solution and treat the condition.”“I don’t have much medical knowledge so we’re counting on you.”“Leave it to me, sir,” answered Winslow in determination.Adrian did not comment further. He got up and walked to the room in the treatment room.Noticing that Adrian was leaving, Crystal hastily said, “Adrian, we’ll need you to take the lead on the matters related to Isle 416. I’ve discussed with the elders and have decided to reinstate you as the legate and hand over the authority once again—”Adrian interrupted Crystal, “The head position is yours now. I can set my mind at ease knowing that you’re here.”Crystal had not expected Adrian to decline so quickly. She hastily said, “But you’re the only person capable of leading Wyvern Peak under the current circumstances. I don’t know anything…”Adrian said, “You may consu

The nurses teased Gloria, and she humored them by joining their laughter. Then, the nurses stopped bothering them and left the room.Adrian sat down. Gloria looked at Adrian and said, “I’d like to go out for a walk and tour the city. I want to visit my parents’ graves and see my sister.”Adrian nodded. “Sure. I’ll take you to do it all one by one.”Gloria said, “Most importantly, I’d like to meet Samantha.”“Sure,” Adrian immediately agreed, “I’ll take you to meet her when you’re fully recovered.”Gloria answered with an “mm-hm.”Crystal, the third elder, and the sixth elder walked in. Gloria's gaze fell on Crystal when she saw them. She said in astonishment, “Crystal, is that you?”“It’s been such a long time since we last met, Gloria,” said Crystal smilingly.“It…It has been a long time indeed. It’s been about seven years since we were in military school together, right?” said Gloria.“Yes, about there.”Crystal and Gloria were acquaintances and they used to spend time with

Crystal and the elders left to head back to Novemtom.Adrian and Gloria were left to themselves in the treatment room. They exchanged one glance in unison.Gloria looked at Adrian with a frustrated gaze. Her gaze was filled with an array of emotions. There was the joy of being reunited and the carefreeness of two close friends.Adrian had not felt that for five years.“You sure you won’t regret this?” Gloria asked him.“Regret what?” asked Adrian.Gloria stretched out her hand to straighten Adrian’s collar as she rolled her eyes. “You spent a lot of effort to secure the position of legate. It’s something that many people will spare no effort in becoming, yet you choose to retire after four years. You’re the first legate in the Wyvern Peak’s history to step down after just four years, other than those who died in wars.”Adrian smiled at Gloria and said, “Four years is quite a long time. Also, my body is becoming weaker. There will be a candidate from Wyvern Peak who’s better suit

“Haha…” Gloria chuckled. “Denzel was Adrian’s best friend, and they used to fight a lot. When I was still around, they used to butt heads a lot.”The nurse smiled and said, “Yes, it’s a waste that Battle Warrior Denzel sacrificed himself to save his sister. If he were still alive, there’s no telling who would’ve been chosen as the legate. I heard that Battle Warrior Denzel was even more powerful than War Legate Draco.”Gloria thought about it and said, “They’re about the same, almost equal. However, Denzel was slightly more mature than Adrian. After all, he was two years older than Adrian. Oh right, how’s Denzel’s sister?”The nurse said, “When Excenom invaded the moat last month, Hedgeton was occupied by the enemy. The legate sent troops to protect Hedgeville, and Denzel’s sister was seemingly transported to Yelloton. I don’t know the specific details though.”“He remembered her,” said Gloria.“There was a time not long ago when the whole country was criticizing Wyvern Peak. Howe

Those three short words embodied deep misery and frustration.Gloria’s eyes glistened with tears. On that eventful day five years ago, she was lying in Adrian’s arms and knew she was about to die. She was very conscious before she died. Thinking back to that time, she felt like she had been in a dream. She dreamt that she was trapped in a sealed space and only awakened upon hearing the fighting noises in the outside world, only to discover that five years had already passed.Gloria lowered her head and wiped away her eyes. She badly wanted to cry. Everything felt like a nightmare.She covered her charming face with one hand because she did not want Adrian to see her tears. Adrian used to regard her as a strong woman back when they trained together in Wyvern Peak. She was fearless and would never shed a tear.But she wanted to cry so badly right now.A strong hand gently held her tiny hand. Adrian stood by Gloria and kept her company as they looked out at the boundless sea.Adrian

In the lab, Shane’s student brought over a hazmat suit as soon as Adrian walked in. He said to Adrian, “Sir, please put on the hazmat suit before you enter.”Adrian quickly put it on and walked into the lab.Shane and a group of professors were observing the data analysis of the rock. Upon noticing Adrian, the group of people called out.“Legate!”“You’re here, sir.”Adrian nodded. “What have you found?”Shane said, “We performed an analysis on the rock you brought back from the island. It isn’t made up of Earth’s organic materials and is possibly from outer space. In other words, it’s a meteorite.”“I expected as much,” Adrian said, “What is it made of?”Shane inhaled a deep breath and replied, “We can’t find any related information on the substances found on it. It’s made up of materials that we don’t know of and there’s plenty of room to study it closely.”Adrian glanced at Shane. “Does it emit some sort of radiation?”Shane shook his head. “No.”“No?”“Yes, it isn’t rad

Adrian was under the assumption that the meteorite from outer space emitted radiation. But judging from the current findings, it was the worms that were the real cause of the hallucinations.It was these worms that changed Gloria’s body.The truth was unveiled.Adrian felt relieved ever so slightly. It was great news that they made a new discovery in their research on the first day.“Professor Shane.” Adrian turned around and looked toward Shane as he said, “Work together with Winslow to find out a way to stop the worms from continuing the mutation within three months. Find an antidote for Gloria.”Shane said, “Don’t worry, sir. This matter is crucial to the whole country so we’ll devote every effort to this. However, I have a suggestion. I’d like to lead a team of researchers to carry out reconnaissance on the island.”“Apply with Her Majesty. She will assign people to send you there,” said Adrian.Upon saying that, Adrian left the lab. It was already midnight. He returned to t

The first place that Gloria wanted to go upon her return was to visit her parents’ graves at her family home. Adrian would accompany her, of course.“Mya, return to Swallowston and inform Sam about the situation here. Gloria and I will head back to Swallowston right after we’re done dealing with other matters,” Adrian briefed Mya.Mya answered with an “mm-hmm” and waved at Gloria. “See you in Swallowston. By then, Sam and I will have a grand feast prepared for you!”Gloria smiled and said, “Thank you, Mya!”“Don’t mention it. Farewell!”After saying goodbye to Mya, Adrian drove Gloria away from the garrison base. Jacky and the others did not turn up to say bye as all Wyvern Peak’s departments were in a state of battle preparation after receiving Crystal and the elders’ orders.Hence, they could only gaze after the departing Adrian.***The car was filled with Gloria’s anticipation. It carried her joyous laughter as it pulled away from the base and passed through the coastal cit
