The Return of the War Legate Chapter 978
Adrian fell silent, while Louisa took a deep breath and said, “I have no more family left in this world. I used to think Ivy and the others were my family, but it turns out I was too naive. They abandoned me for their own sake.""Is that why you've given yourself to Eternity entirely?" Adrian asked."Shut up! Do you know what despair feels like?!" Louisa yelled, seeming extremely agitated. She furiously continued, "You've never been through what I've experienced, so you'd best not ask me to call on my better conscience. None of you know… Not even Ivy and the rest know how Eternity treated me after they all turned to you for help. I've been living in a constant nightmare ever since!“I had no other choice… My heart has long died since they abandoned me."Ivy and the other women had been ordered to retrieve the book from St. Elmer's Church's secret room in Swallowston. In the end, thanks to Adrian, their mission failed miserably. Being unable to return, Ivy and the others, who were L

Louisa was stunned and slowly put down her hands as Adrian's words echoed in her ears. Finally, she lowered her guard completely.Adrian walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Ivy hasn't given up hope, even now, Louisa, and you shouldn’t either. I'll get you out of here, I'll take you home so that you can pay your respects at your parents' graves. I'll take you back to your hometown so that you can reunite with your relatives and neighbors. All you have to do is trust me."One more thing, we need to fight for all those things."Louisa looked up in a daze after listening to Adrian's words. She silently gazed at him before asking, "Is it true? Can I really go home? It's been more than ten years now, and I really miss home. Can you really take me home?" Her tears streamed down her face.Adrian nodded in all seriousness. "Yes, I can. Not only can you go home, but you can also fall in love like the others, put on a white wedding dress, and form a family of your own."Lo

"Why does she want the bertrandium?" Adrian asked."I'm not sure, but there’s no doubt it’s extremely important to her. In fact, every single person left behind here in Bloody Rose is just a sacrifice who had zero value to her."Plus, I heard that Bloody Rose's headquarters had already moved elsewhere a long time ago, and the people here are all meant to be her sacrificial pawns."Louisa had been staying there for many years, so she would sometimes hear pieces of gossip.Adrian replied, "Are you saying that Eternity has people transporting the bertrandium through this secret passage?"Louisa nodded. "Yes, they're transporting it. The entrance to that secret passage is three levels beneath that entrance, and I know how we can get there.""We don't have to go there. I need you to get me to Eternity. I'll make arrangements for the rest."After that, he spoke through his communicator again. "Gale, scan the area and find an exit through the underground. It should be somewhere close t

‘Looks like she expected us to make our move.'At that moment, all of Eternity's actions showed she was planning on discarding the stronghold. On top of that, she wanted Adrian and the others who entered to be buried beneath its explosion.When Louisa heard the news, she anxiously yelled, "We need to gather everyone! Eternity must be planning on blowing up this place the moment they leave. I'm sure they're moving through the secret passage right now."Adrian frowned. 'She's a rather formidable character to have made it this far. However, she’s about to lose if she has made such a move.'At that thought, he said, "Ivy, Eira, get everyone out of here now! We'll meet them at Seatum.""Yes, sir!""Retreat!"Adrian turned around and said, "We should get out of here too, Louisa. Eternity has made this a lot easier for us by doing as such."After that, he brought Louisa out of there at once, while Ivy, Eira, and the other women made their hasty retreat as well. Everyone managed to get

Max immediately got ready upon receiving his orders.Still confused, Ivy asked, "Don't you think it's bad to celebrate a victory you haven't won yet, Adrian? Are we really ending the mission when we haven't saved anyone yet?"Adrian remained silent.Meanwhile, Gloria smiled and said, "The battlefield is always changing, and there will be times when even the best-laid plans may change at any given moment. And every time there is change, there's a chance the entire battle may end."According to our original plan, it’d be extremely difficult for us to succeed if Bloody Rose chose to fight to the bitter end. However, Eternity has chosen to abandon the stronghold and leave, which means we can end all of this."Ivy and Eira exchanged looks, still confused about what was going on.Gloria smiled. "You'll understand in a moment."The two women shook their heads and stopped asking questions.***Meanwhile, on the third underground level of Bloody Rose, were people moving around through

The entire passage was hit by a series of earthquakes thanks to the continuous explosions from the surface. The team transporting the bertrandium picked up the pace as their transports were rushing to get to the other end of the passage.Aside from that, a group of women was following the team of killers toward the end of the passage in confusion. They were all nurtured by Bloody Rose to become killers, and their lives had been confined to this place a long time ago."Hurry up! Pick up the pace!" someone inside the passage yelled.The higher-ranking personnel within Bloody Rose got into their vehicles, while the killers, who were the lowest-ranking, were on foot and being urged to move faster. Of course, Eternity herself had gotten in a vehicle with a few of Bloody Rose’s directors."What the hell is up with Draco? There's no way Wyvern Peak would attack if they knew he was in here."One of the directors said, "I don't think he's up there. What we should focus on right now is gett
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 984
The other women wiped away their tears, feeling extremely helpless.Another woman asked, "Do you think War Legate Draco will kill us when he gets here? What's Eternity planning? Do you think she's going to force us to fight Wyvern Peak later?""I don't know." Helen shook her head. "But, in any case, we should all play it by ear no matter what happens later. Take care of yourselves and don't give up hope.” She tried to motivate them with her words.The women took a deep breath and continued running despite how exhausted they were. If they stop running, the bertrandium-loaded cargo trucks would run them over without hesitation.Bloody Rose was making a full retreat, while Eternity sat in her vehicle, still seeming as cold and prestigious as ever. She turned around to look at the darkness behind her and unconsciously clenched her fists. Gritting her teeth, she said, "I'm going to kill you for ruining my plans multiple times, War Legate Draco!”"Move!""Faster!"Bloody Rose continue
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 985
Helen, who was running through the secret passage, was carrying a small communication device on her. It made a beeping noise as a link was established. She had secretly snuck that communicator out with her when she left.Usually, Bloody Rose would only hand them these communicators when they went out on missions. Thus, these communicators were extremely important to Bloody Rose's headquarters.Helen frowned when she saw her communicator flashing, having no idea who was trying to contact her. When she turned around and saw that nobody was paying attention to her, she picked up the call."Hello?" Helen whispered.Meanwhile, at Wyvern Peak…The operator said, "We're connected, sir."Adrian walked toward him immediately and said, "Hello."When Helen heard the voice, she whispered, "Who are you?""I'm War Legate Draco of Wyvern Peak, and I'm speaking to you from Wyvern Peak. I'm here to save you all."Helen was instantly shocked when she heard this, and her expression changed drast

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
