Whatever Adrian's capabilities, Jelzuc's failure to defeat him was undoubtedly a disgrace. Despite their size, they could not overcome one person. In Fallen City, such failure would have led to their quick demise. This gave Adrian ample opportunity to mock Malik relentlessly.When Adrian taunted Malik, the latter became furious. He shouted, "Are you really pushing me to use my last resort?!"Adrian was briefly surprised at the mention of "last resort" but dismissed it. He knew Malik had no real trump card; otherwise, Malik wouldn't be losing to him or be under Kayden’s thumb. Adrian sneered as he swiftly defeated surrounding enemies and charged straight at Malik.Malik, seeing Adrian approach, was terrified. He knew Adrian's strength well. His bravado had only come from his followers, but now Adrian had effortlessly defeated them and was closing in on him, and his pride evaporated.But before Malik could react, Adrian's knife was at his throat. He froze in fear, staring wide-eyed a

Adrian knew they wouldn't dare to attack him. From their words, it was clear they considered themselves important. Nevertheless, he said icily, "Since we can't reach an agreement, we’ll let Rhys decide. But I doubt you fair-weather friends will earn his forgiveness."Everyone turned to Rhys, who after taking a short rest, felt a little better albeit still far from his peak. With everyone's eyes on him, Rhys finally made his choice. Without acknowledging the others, he said to Adrian, "Mr. Adrian, thank you for saving me. Let's leave."Rhys limped toward the exit, leaving the others stunned and disbelieving. The man who had spoken earlier approached, pleading, "Rhys, how can you do this? We've been friends for so long!"Rhys ignored him and kept walking. Frustrated, the man tried to grab Rhys, but Adrian intervened swiftly. His eyes flashed fiercely as he shouted, "Who do you think you are? Back off!"Adrian grabbed the man's arm and effortlessly threw him to the ground, humiliating him

Rhys was busy fortifying the outpost when he saw Adrian approaching. Immediately, he set down his tools and asked, "Is there something you need, Mr. Adrian?""Yes," Adrian replied, "I have a question for you."Rhys, surprised by this, asked, "What is it?"Adrian sat down beside him. "I want to ask you about the Prime Oracles. Do you have any impressions of them?"The mention of the Prime Oracles made Rhys' expression freeze. Initially, he thought Adrian’s question was trivial, but he quickly realized its seriousness.Noticing Rhys' reaction, Adrian's tone turned grave. "What’s going on? Are the Prime Oracles really that formidable?"Rhys nodded. "Are you somehow involved with the Prime Oracles, sir? If so, you need to tell me. This concerns your safety.""What’s going on? Tell me everything.""Sir, the Prime Oracles is the most ruthless faction around these parts.""The most ruthless faction? How do they compare to Kayden?"Rhys looked Adrian square in the eye. "Nothing."Ad

If one recklessly attacked the Prime Oracles, the only possible outcome would be complete annihilation. Fortunately, the Prime Oracles typically did not interfere in conflicts between the various factions. Although Adrian and his group were active, their actions were solely aimed at Kayden, so there was no need to worry about attracting the Prime Oracles' attention for now.After contemplating for a while, Adrian decided to focus on developing his fighting forces. Only by becoming strong enough could he eventually challenge the Prime Oracles.After explaining everything to Adrian, Rhys asked, "Sir, do you have some personal vendetta against the Prime Oracles? Why are you suddenly asking about them?"Adrian couldn't disclose his mission, so he replied, "Yes, I do, in fact. Hence, I need to know all I can about them, but you don't need to know about the specifics."Rhys looked startled.Adrian asked, "What's wrong?"Rhys quickly shook his head. "No, there's nothing wrong. I just di

Rhys replied, "While the Prime Oracles have a vast and powerful influence, they don't have people everywhere. There are extremely remote areas that are essentially no-go zones for them.""I see. They avoid those remote areas because there's nothing to gain from them, so they don't bother," Adrian responded.Rhys nodded. "Yes, but it's not just that. Anyway, let's get inside."They entered the town, making several turns until they finally reached their destination. Before them stood a dilapidated building, looking like an old residential place, vastly different from the base Adrian had imagined."This is where they live?" Adrian asked, surprised.Understanding his confusion, Rhys explained, "Don’t judge the book by its cover, Mr. Adrian. This is for the sake of staying hidden. Alright, I’m going to knock."As Rhys raised his hand and knocked. A few moments later, the door slowly swung open. No one came out, but Rhys motioned for Adrian to follow him inside. Once inside, they were
