The Return of the War Legate Chapter 201
Adrian inhaled a deep breath upon hearing Rue’s story.Samantha shut her eyes as well. It was said that Henry had passed away from an illness but she had not expected that this was how he had gotten sick.Then, Rue said, “Henry hid some data and information before his passing. Afterward, the lab was dissolved and the nursing home was deserted. Je told me not to tell you about this incident.”“What else did he say?” asked Adrian.“Your father said that Mr. V is a very powerful man and that we’re no match for him. Hence, I did not tell you about this so you won’t try to seek revenge.”“Where’s Richie then? Where did Richie go afterward?” asked Samantha. Rue shook her head. “Richie went missing after his deal with Mr. V. I don’t know why Mr. V didn’t utilize the recipe when he acquired it. It’s possible that the recipe contained some sort of error but there’s been no news about it until today.”Rue wondered, “It’s possible that Mr. V didn’t use the medicine because he discovered t

Danton was extremely astonished upon receiving Samantha’s call.He suggested Samantha call the Battle Warrior Department immediately to open up an investigation. Other than that, he expressed his willingness to help her in investigating this matter.However, Samantha did not call up the department for fear that it would affect Adrian’s mood.***Samantha barely slept that night.Early morning the next day, Adrian was already gone by the time she woke up.Samantha washed up quickly and drove out to chase after Adrian. She knew that he must be heading to the nursing home.Rue’s expression showed that she was in agony as she looked at her son and daughter-in-law leaving in succession.Her husband had never rested in peace all this time.She could no longer hide the truth that Henry had made her promise to not tell anyone. She had no idea how the future would turn out now that the truth was out.Meanwhile, Adrian was on his way to Swallowston Nursing Home.Samantha was already g

Upon saying that, Adrian got out of the car and strode into the construction site.The man was instantly flustered and said to him, “You’re not allowed to enter here.”He wanted to step forward and stop Adrian, but Adrian turned around and said, “I’m not joking around with you. Get your site manager to come to speak to me. Don’t make me repeat myself.”Adrian’s gaze was filled with a ferocity that scared the man out of his wits.On the other hand, Adrian had already walked into the construction site.Then, Adrian clapped and approached a construction worker to ask, “Who’s the foreman here?”The worker pointed out a man.Adrian made his way to the foreman without the slightest hesitation and said, “Are you the foreman?”The foreman took a puzzled glance at Adrian and asked, “That’s me. Why? Are you looking for a job?”“Send word to halt all works,” Adrian ordered.The foreman was a middle-aged man about forty years old.He found Adrian’s remark ridiculous. “Who the f*ck are y

Samantha attempted to stop Adrian by pulling at him, but he simply shoved her away.The foreman covered his face and was struggling to get on his feet.Adrian grabbed him by his collar as soon as he got up and hoisted him into the air with one hand.He said, “Get everyone to stop working. Are you deaf or blind? Answer me!”Thud!Upon saying that, Adrian gave the foreman’s belly another punch.The foreman was shaking from head to toe and his legs kicked frantically in mid-air. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.“I… I’ll get them to stop working.” The foreman yielded and lost the courage to continue his stubborn act.“Why didn’t you do so earlier?” Adrian asked.The foreman stuttered and simply stared at Adrian. He was at a loss for words.Adrian swung a kick and the foreman flew before landing on the ground. Adrian clapped and beckoned to the foreman. “Do it.”The foreman got up from the ground. Holding onto his belly, he shouted, “Stop working! Everybody,

“Be careful, everyone. Safety first,” said Samantha to those people.Danton’s subordinates entered the nursing home and searched for the basement entrance. The rest of the people stayed behind, waiting for orders.Riley and Elara walked over. They inspected the area around the nursing home with a few security guards from New Paraiso.The crowd anxiously waited for an update.Meanwhile, Samantha said to Danton, “Oh, Mr. Danton, are you acquainted with the president of Gamma Construction? My husband beat up one of their employees earlier and I’m worried that…”“Beat up one of their employees?” Danton was surprised. He turned around and glanced at Adrian who stood not far away from him.In truth, Danton had always thought rather highly of Adrian. When Henry was still alive, Adrian excelled at school in every area. He had even claimed that Adrian would certainly grow up to be a successful man.It was a waste that the situation had not turned out as he had expected. Adrian was suffer

Samantha became excited upon hearing the voice from the walkie-talkie.Even Danton smiled and said, “I’m sure the thing we’re looking for is inside. Bring it here.”“Yes, sir.”Shortly after that, the men who had gone into the basement returned with a rusty-looking safe. After they placed it on the floor, Danton and Samantha walked over and bent over to get a look at it.“Mr. Danton, Ms. Samantha, here’s the safe you asked for. Judging by its exterior, it’s probably seven to eight years old.”The rust around it was so bad that it could not be opened. However, the fact that it was so well hidden must mean it contained something very important.Danton asked, “Could this be the thing that Henry left behind? Do you think he locked away all of his documents inside?”Unsure of the answer herself, Samantha said, “It’s possible, but I can’t say for sure. Let’s take it back to my office first. We’ll find out what it is once we find a way to pry it open.”Danton nodded and had his men lo

Time was irreversible.Adrian shut his eyes and took a deep breath, while Samantha stayed by his side, silently accompanying him.However, right at that moment, a few dozen cars arrived outside the nursing home. The revving of their engines attracted everyone’s attention.The workers from Gamma Construction became excited when they saw the cars.“It’s Mr. Loid.”“He’s finally here.”“Looks like he brought a lot of people with him.”Everyone was pumped, while Danton and the others felt a sense of foreboding.When Samantha saw the cars, she hurriedly said, “Loid Elrod’s here, dear. Find a place to hide while I go take a look.”Samantha ran off after saying that.At that moment, Loid commanded more than fifty people as he furiously stormed into the nursing home.Loid was a rather important man in Southrive, while Gamma Construction was the third largest business under the Southrive Group.He was famous—for his bad temper.“It was them, Mr. Loid. They asked us to stop working
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 208
Samantha, Danton, and all of the onlookers were stunned when they saw Loid bowing down.The president of Trifecta, an important man of the Southrive Group and the very same man who was furious a moment ago, was bowing to another man???‘Unbelievable!’Everyone was wide-eyed with shock, absolutely confused why Loid would do such a thing right after Adrian presented a medallion.‘What kind of medallion is that?’Loid was the only one who saw what was inscribed on the medallion, while the others could not due to the angle they were looking at it.Meanwhile, Adrian put away the medallion before anyone else could see what it was.Loid was bent over at a ninety degrees angle, trembling so vigorously that he could not even utter a single word.“Adrian…” Samantha called out, her heart thumping like mad.‘Something must be up with that medallion of his.’Ignoring her, Adrian kicked Loid in the shin, causing the latter to fall flat on his face.And thus, Loid was now at the mercy of A

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 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.

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

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
