Upon saying that, Adrian turned around and left. It was to be a very close, intense operation.

As Gloria gazed after Adrian’s departing silhouette, she said, “Get ready, everyone. We’ll depart in an hour.”

The group returned to the base and packed up their equipment in preparation to head to Bloody Rose an hour later.

Bloody Rose was located in the outlands of Navia while Azure Creek’s location was on the moat, so it was not far from Bloody Rose. One could reach there in roughly two hours by helicopter.

The group was well-prepared an hour later.

Dozens of Bloody Rose-bound helicopters departed Azure Creek’s base and headed to the outlands.

Meanwhile, in Navia Palace, Crystal was sitting in the audience hall waiting for an update. A man walked into the hall and said, “Your Majesty, we have received an update that War Legate Draco’s troop has departed from Azure Creek and is estimated to arrive in Bloody Rose two hours from now.”

“Thank you,” Crystal answered, “Get the govern

    Meanwhile, Adrian was heading toward Bloody Rose on a helicopter. After receiving Landon’s call, he said, “Duly noted. Thank you for your efforts.”After hanging up the call, he said through the communicator, “Novemton has issued a notification to Bloody Rose, so I now have a proper excuse to attack them. Don’t worry, and allow me to repeat myself. Prioritize your safety before you think about saving others.”“Message received from Ivy’s squad.”“Message received from Eira’s squad.”“Message received from Blaze’s squad.”“Message received from Gloria’s squad.”The replies were received by the communicator one after another.Meanwhile, a voice came through the communicators, heard by Adrian and everyone else’s. “Can you hear me, Legate? This is Gale. I’ve arrived at Wyvern Peak’s outland headquarters. The preparations here have been completed.”“Message received,” said Adrian.“How’s the situation on your side, Legate?” asked Gale.“Heading to Bloody Rose now. We’ll be at the

    The upcoming battle was soundlessly brewing.Meanwhile, it was already two in the morning, and the helicopter rushed toward Bloody Rose’s headquarters.***Bloody Rose’s stronghold was built between mountains that were located in a mountainous area in the middle of the outlands. The place had been outfitted with two to three levels of underground training grounds.Bloody Rose had always been known to be as powerful as Black Nergal. A large number of assassins were trained here, rendering services to other organizations and even engaging in wars. The internal structure of its headquarters was so complicated that it was difficult for a person who did not know it well enough to complete the mission. Ivy and the others were the only suitable candidates for the mission.Meanwhile, in the command center of Bloody Rose’s gigantic base, Carlos had just ended the communication with Landon, livid after just hearing Landon’s statement. He let out a grunt and said nonchalantly, “How dare the

    At the same time, inside Bloody Rose.Carlos was sitting in the office when he received an emergency communication. “Mr. Carlos, our radar has detected more than twenty helicopters appearing on the west side about a thousand meters away. We don’t know who the incomers are.”“What?” Carlos furrowed his eyebrows. “Could it be people from Novemton? Dispatch my order at once. Send out a thousand killers to investigate the situation and report to me the findings immediately!” he shouted.Upon saying that, Carlos walked toward the command center in a rush.***In the forest, Mya asked while she was lying with her chest on the ground, “Can we begin, Legate?”Adrian held the binoculars and shook his head. “Stand down for the time being. Bloody Rose has already noticed our presence so Carlos will most certainly send out his subordinates to investigate. We’ll take action then.”“Yes, sir,” answered the group.Adrian said, “Gale, can you pinpoint the accurate location of Bloody Rose’s com

    Everyone was on high alert, staring straight at Bloody Rose’s hall.They could instantly level Bloody Rose to the ground if they adopted extreme measures to attack the place. However, Adrian refused to sacrifice those innocent women who were coerced to join Bloody Rose. Hence, the operation was a rescue operation.It was a mission to acquire bertrandium with its premise being a rescue operation.***“Ten!”“Nine!”“Eight!”“Seven!”Everyone was lying on their chests behind the rocks in the forest when they heard the countdown from their communicator.On the other side, Gale raised his right hand high in the air. “Everyone is ready, Legate. We’re locking onto Bloody Rose’s hub now. The battle is about to begin.”“Stay on high alert.”“The preparations are complete.”Convincing voices were heard coming from the communicators constantly. Everyone held their breath and waited for the countdown to end.At this very moment, Carlos was watching the computer screen before him with

    “Seven!”“Run! Run now! Get out of here!” roared Carlos.“Five!”“Oh no… Oh no…” Carlos was stunned to the spot.The command center was in chaos. Everyone stood up as they screamed and scurried in a panic.“It’s too late!”“It’s too late!”Someone roared. Carlos’ mouth was agape and his expression was filled with fear. He roared, “How is this happening? No! I was wrong! I was wrong! Beg Wyvern Peak to stop at once. We’ll withdraw our troops from Serpent’s Haven—”Boom!A violent explosion was heard as flares burst into the sky, lighting up the surrounding area. Bloody Rose’s hub was drowned in a sea of fire following the series of explosion noises. All the bodies were torn into shreds by the violent impact.“Go!”At the same time, Adrian stood up and roared following the explosion of Bloody Rose’s hub.“Sisters…”“Go!”Dressed in her military outfit, Ivy took the lead by somersaulting across the ground and running straight toward Bloody Rose. Eira, Jenine, Nyssa, Icelyn

    “Fire in the hole!”Gale dispatched the order once again.Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!Thirty seconds later, loud explosion noises were heard coming from the areas surrounding Bloody Rose’s stronghold. Explosions took place at the coordinates Gale had stated. Bloody Rose’s killers were drowned in a sea of fire from the explosion one by one. Flames raged, dust filled the air, and a cloud of smoke floated over the battlefield.“This is it. Everyone, cover for Ivy and Eira’s squads at full force so that they can enter Bloody Rose!” shouted Adrian.“Attack!”“Get them!”Boom, boom, boom!The gunfire was relentless. Alan, Blaze, Gloria, and Mya jumped out from behind the obstacle and ran toward Bloody Rose. Unrelenting gunshots were heard and bodies collapsed to the ground one by one. Some of Bloody Rose’s killers were shot as soon as they ran out. Some were eliminated while searching for cover.“Incoming from the east! One hundred and seventy-eight degrees!” shouted Emily.“F*ck! Ever

    “Provide fire support in the east, south, and north so the enemy will mistake it for us coming in great numbers. We’ll lure out a large number of enemies from Bloody Rose, block their escape route, and kill them. This way, Ivy and the others will face one less danger.”Upon hearing that, Gale replied, “All right, I understand.” He turned his head and said to the person next to him, “Paralyze all of Bloody Rose’s systems, control system, and network system. Provide fire support to the east, south, and north.”“Yes, sir!”Wyvern Peak’s people quickly sprung into action.On the battlefield, Ivy and Eira’s voices were heard constantly.Ivy said, “We’ve successfully entered Bloody Rose and there are no casualties.”Eira said, “Entered Bloody Rose. No casualties.”Adrian said, “Ivy, Eira, I’ll cut Bloody Rose’s power for five minutes. The time will be for you to get ready. We’ll reconnect the power supply after five minutes.”“Message received.”“Understood.”Adrian stood on the mo

    The battle was relentless, and Bloody Rose’s chaotic situation was unprecedented. No one expected Wyvern Peak to launch an immediate and swift attack on them.The latter half of the night was cold with piercing wind. Adrian continued to stand on the mountaintop and quietly looked at everything before him. Voices occasionally came through his communicator.Ivy said, “We’ve entered underground level two, but Jenine is injured from a shot in the leg.”Upon hearing her report, Adrian asked, “What’s the extent of her injury? Can she walk?”“I don’t think so. She’s losing too much blood. We’ve decided that one of us will stay to care for her while the rest continues with the mission,” said Ivy.“All right,” replied Adrian.Meanwhile, Jenine’s voice was heard saying, “I’m sorry for burdening the others, Legate.”Adrian said, “Don’t say that. You’ll be fine, Jenine.“Everyone else, continue with the mission.”“Yes, sir!”Ivy and her squad continued with their mission. Adrian had no c

    Adrian was blatantly threatening her. It was clear he would subject her to torment and death if she didn’t agree to his terms. How could such a person be described as reasonable?Renee gritted her teeth, wishing she could punch Adrian and show him her strength.Adrian simply looked at her calmly. “There’s no need to resent me. I’m actually quite agreeable. When things can be resolved, I try to resolve them. As for you, rest assured. During your month of servitude, I won’t make you serve in vain. You’re the princess of Ciawales, correct? It just so happens I have some free time. Let’s head there together.“Also, tell me about the customs and cultures of this world. I’ve been in secluded training for many years and have forgotten much about the outside world,” he lied.Renee was taken aback. Adrian didn’t look much older than her, so how could he be some kind of reclusive expert? His words only left her more puzzled.“How am I supposed to introduce it? Are you not from this world?”

    Was Adrian looking for praise? Renee couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated. She wasn’t sure what Adrian was trying to convey. All his words seemed to point to one thing—that he was her savior, and now she owed him her obedience.To Renee, this was a difficult pill to swallow. After all, she was a princess, and Adrian’s implication was that she should lower herself to him. But under the current circumstances, she had no choice but to bow her head.Though she felt deeply unwilling, Renee could only grit her teeth and respond calmly, “Yes, you saved me. I’m deeply grateful. I promise to repay your kindness when I get the chance.” She locked eyes with Adrian, waiting for his reaction. If Adrian wasn’t satisfied, she truly didn’t know what to do. The valuable items she possessed were limited, consisting mostly of a few life-saving treasures. Beyond that, there wasn’t much on her that was of worth.Adrian, however, narrowed his eyes and said sharply, “Just a few words of thanks? Do y

    "Spare me! Otherwise, Divine Reaper won’t let you go!" the leader shouted, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Adrian.The man looked terrifying, exuding a powerful aura. He was using a secret technique, hoping to escape. But with a casual wave of his hand, Adrian created a barrier that blocked the man’s path.Renee, watching from below, was stunned. Divine Reaper… They were the most feared assassin organization in the Spirit Domain, known for their stealthy and deadly methods that instilled fear in everyone.There was a saying across the Spirit Domain: if Divine Reaper marked someone for death, nine out of ten targets would die. If someone survived, it was because they were of an extraordinary and untouchable status. Clearly, her status as the princess of Ciawales wasn’t extraordinary enough to make her exempt from such threats.Adrian smiled and said, “Nice name, but you’ve offended the wrong person. You deserve to die.” He swung his Soul Devouring Sword.A wave of power surged forth, a

    "I can't believe it! Is this guy really that terrifying? Can we truly not defeat him?" the leader muttered. He gripped a curved blade, which now glowed with a blood-red light.The others around him also had cold glints in their eyes. They were not about to admit defeat easily. Although Adrian was powerful, they weren’t willing to give up without a fight. Adrian had only been killing intermediary Nascents. He hadn’t even touched the advanced ones yet. Most importantly, their leader was at the peak of the Nascent Stage, making him an incredibly strong and fearsome opponent. This alone was enough to show that their leader had the strength to go toe-to-toe with Adrian. They were confident that Adrian couldn’t defeat their boss, especially with them assisting.Boom, boom, boom!A terrifying shockwave tore through the heavens, leaving the surroundings trembling violently. Adrian’s gaze was sharp, filled with an intense killing intent.“Die!” he shouted.Bam!The leader was struck har

    Moreover, the strength Adrian displayed was so overwhelming that it left everyone in disbelief. After all, in the Spirit Realm, the physical body of any immortal was supposed to be relatively fragile, and having a powerful physical body was impossible.The group couldn't quite accept the fact that Adrian was out of their league. Yet, no matter how they tried to make sense of it, it seemed like nothing could change the reality of the situation. One of the black-clad men sneered. "Perhaps this kid's physical strength is enhanced by some kind of secret treasure. Once we kill him and take the treasure, we’ll boost our own power." His words were intended to rally the group as if trying to inspire them to believe they were on the verge of victory. Adrian merely smiled coldly upon hearing this. With a murderous gleam in his eyes, his voice turned cold as he said, "Since you're all so determined to meet your end, don't blame me."Adrian threw another punch, and this time, it was a force

    The group's formation suddenly began to shatter. The white light radiated by the formation continued to whip up the surrounding yellow sand."How is this possible?" one of the men gasped in disbelief. This was a powerful barrier set up by several experts in the late Divine Stage, yet it had been destroyed so easily.The leader of the black-clad men sneered. "Hmph! It's just the formation being broken. Most likely it was pure luck for this guy. Don’t be afraid of him."His words caused the others to pause. While his words were meant to reassure them, the reality of the situation was far from simple. It was impossible for them to defeat Adrian, who was proving to be much stronger than anticipated? After all, Adrian’s strength had clearly surpassed that of a typical Divine immortal. Even if he were in the Divine Stage, he had undoubtedly reached the peak. Breaking the formation with ease was impossible unless one was at that level."It's just a bluff," the leader of the black-clad m

    Renee felt a sense of helplessness within. As a princess of Ciawales, she was now left pondering a difficult question.Adrian was unaware of Renee’s thoughts. If he had known that Renee was considering fleeing while he was risking his life, he would not have helped her.As the onslaught of attacks descended upon him, Adrian leaped swiftly into the air. The attacks from the black-clad men crashed into him, but Adrian remained unscathed. This caused the group of attackers to freeze in disbelief."What’s going on?" they muttered in shock as they stared at Adrian, who appeared as agile as a panther.At the moment when Adrian leaped into the air, it seemed as though nothing could stop him. His expression remained calm and nonchalant in the face of their attacks."Is this all you’ve got? You’re really that weak. Feel free to unleash everything you’ve got. Don’t hold back," Adrian said, his tone laced with disdain.The black-clad group was stunned by Adrian’s arrogance. Even Renee stood

    Adrian smiled as he replied, "Is that so? Well, it seems you're just unlucky. The moment you encountered me, your fate was already sealed."His simple words were filled with provocation, meant to make the group before him admit their defeat. If they didn't, Adrian was determined to make them regret it.The leader of the black-clad men sneered and stepped forward. "How laughable. This is the first time I’ve encountered such an arrogant brat. Do you really think you're some kind of unparalleled genius? I see your strength is only at the Divine Stage. While I can’t quite tell your true level, you shouldn’t be so cocky. Even with your strength, we can overwhelm you with numbers and wear you down. You really don't know when to quit. Now, I’ve changed my mind. Kneel before us, and we’ll spare you."As the leader was talking, his curved blade gleamed with a faint light. The light from the blade seemed to radiate with a dangerous brilliance, causing Adrian’s expression to momentarily shift

    "No matter who he is, he's no match for us. I advise you to surrender quietly, Renee," one of the black-clad men said.Clinging to the last flicker of hope, Renee was not willing to give up. She charged toward the barrier, unleashing an attack as she did. The strike hit the barrier, and it trembled violently.At that moment, Adrian’s eyes snapped open. Seeing the situation before him, his expression grew cold.Renee continued her wild assault. As her eyes met Adrian’s, an unexpected surge of panic overtook her.The black-clad pursuers were furious. “Hey, kid up ahead! I suggest you mind your own business. This woman belongs to us. If you want to stay alive, leave now."The voice of the black-clad man was booming, and the sound of it echoed through the desert, proving that these pursuers were no ordinary threat.Adrian’s expression turned even colder. He had no intention of getting involved, but when the others spoke so recklessly, he couldn’t just ignore it. As he slowly rose to
