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

A woman wearing a business suit was sitting behind the office table as she quietly looked through a series of documents on the computer.The woman exuded a classy presence, had a beautiful figure, and a mature, charming face. She had dark, long hair that draped over her shoulders. She looked rather similar to Gloria if one were to look closely.This woman was Gracia.She was a renowned female entrepreneur, philanthropist, and writer of the Southwest region. She had published five books and had thousands of fans. Her books were about the story of a heroine who was as brave as a man. The female lead of her book was named Cora Thompson and she was a soldier at the frontier.Wyvern Peak’s members who read Gracia’s books knew that the inspiration for the main character of these books was Gloria. Perhaps Gracia had missed her sister in her heart all this time.“Ms. Gracia…”A female secretary walked into the office.Gracia did not even look up as she said, “What is it?”The secretary

Gracia nodded. “Let’s do it. Mobilize all the subsidiary plants to supply the machinery to them according to the order and charge them the usual price…”“What? Ms. Gracia, materials prices are currently experiencing huge inflation. If we were to charge them the usual price, we wouldn't profit from the order. We might even lose money.”“Just do as I said. Gale will owe me one for this. Oh, also, what’s the date tomorrow?”“Twenty-sixth of April.”“That’s my parents’ death anniversary. I’ll be traveling to Slipcounty’s Thompsonville tomorrow, so clear my itinerary. I want to visit my parents’ graves,” said Gracia.“Yes, Ms. Gracia. Do you need any bodyguards to go with you?”“It’s fine. I’ll go alone.”The secretary did ask any further and walked out of the office to make arrangements. After she left, Gracia turned her head and looked toward a photo displayed on her office table. It was a photo of her sister, Gloria. It was only the only photo that Gracia had of her.After their

Adrian and Gloria drove away. As soon as their car left, Gracia’s Mercedes Benz drove out of the company in a different direction.The sisters passed by each other on the main street.***The sky was almost dark when Adrian found a hotel to stay the night with Gloria.Gloria sat on the bed of the hotel room and appeared preoccupied, seemingly anxious. Adrian prepared a hot bath for her and said, “It’s getting late. You should take a bath and go to bed. What are you thinking about?”Gloria raised her head, looked at Adrian, and said, “Do you think Gracia will still acknowledge me as her sister? I abandoned her for so many years and made her go through everything on her own. I’m older than her, so after our parents died, I was supposed to be responsible for her.”“She’ll understand.” Adrian placed his hands on her shoulders.“I hope so…” answered Gloria.“Alright, there’s no use overthinking it. You’ll see her tomorrow. Go take a bath now.”Gloria answered with “mm-hmm” and got

Her body shook upon seeing these people.“Gracia, your sister has fallen, but you should pull yourself together. You must pull yourself together. This is the last photo that your sister left for you…” A female soldier passed a photo to her.Gracia covered her head and stayed in bed. She was unusually quiet that day.She felt hopeless.She felt helpless.***“Gloria!”Gracia jolted back to reality. While in the tub, she suddenly called out her sister’s name and her eyes flew open. She looked around her and discovered that she was having the same dream again.“Gloria…” Gracia called out softly. She covered her head and curled up into a ball, agony surging through her.Gracia stayed in the bathtub the whole night. When she woke up the next day, she quickly packed her things, picked up her car keys, and headed downstairs. She hopped into her car and headed to the village.Meanwhile, in the hotel, Adrian and Gloria had already checked out and walked out of the hotel. Adrian opened

Mdm. Maude was slightly taken aback when she heard Gloria's voice and quickly headed in Gloria’s direction. The women turned to look at Gloria. They then heard a shriek, causing them to stagger backward.Mdm. Maude was so shocked that she fell to the ground. Her entire body trembled as she yelled, "Oh, my God! It's a ghost! A ghost!""Aaaah!"The other women turned pale from fear and hurriedly ran away.Although Gloria had already prepared herself mentally for what was going to happen, she did not expect her presence to cause such a strong reaction. She hurriedly said, "Calm down, Mdm. Maude! I'm not a ghost! I'm alive!""You're alive?"Everyone was slightly dumbfounded. Mdm. Maude calmed herself down and looked at Gloria properly."A-Are you really human? But you died five years ago. Please don't scare me. I've never bullied or harmed you. I even shed a few tears for you when I heard you died.""She's right. We're all from the same hometown. If you want revenge, you should see

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

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
