Wallace said, “Connect me to Daniel.”

“Yes, sir.”

Soon, the operator dialed Daniel’s office phone and said, “General Daniel, Governor Wallace would like to speak with you.”

Daniel was sitting in the office when he learned about the call. He said, “Put the call through.”

“Yes, sir.”

The call was instantly patched through.

Daniel said with a smile as he continued to read a document, “Governor Wallace, what made you think of me? Why are you calling me in such a rush?”

Wallace sneered and said in a querying tone, “Daniel, I’d like to know what the heck the Battle Warrior Department is doing. I’m warning you. Don’t stir up trouble. Otherwise, you’d be better off returning to Wyvern Peak!”

The act of setting up battle warrior branches in main cities was Imperial Capital’s governor’s headquarters nod of recognition toward the Battle Warrior Department. It could be said that the Battle Warrior Department set up stations in the governor’s territories.

    Daniel shook his head and chuckled as he put the phone back on the cradle.Meanwhile, Wallace abruptly flipped the table in his office and roared in anger, “F*ck! He’s such a bully! A big f*cking bully!”The staff did not have the courage to speak as they watched Wallace lose his temper from outside his office.Meanwhile, Wallace said with a malicious expression, “How dare you meddle in other people’s business, Legate. Very well. We’ll see who will be the last man standing today!”As he spoke, Wallace made another call.“Scorpio, eliminate Chuck. Do it now!”“Understood.”***In Prison 14, Adrian was going through the surveillance camera in the control room. He was observing every corner of the prison in search of Chuck.Paul had already tampered with Chuck’s location and placed him in a spot without any cameras. It was clear that Adrian could not find him.Reiss stood by the side and watched the scene. At this moment, she had already figured out who Adrian was. From the seri

    While Adrian was giving out the order, a chain reaction happened deep within the mountains in a faraway place. This was the closest populated area to Prison 14.“We’ve been ordered by the legate to destroy Prison 14!”“We’ve been ordered by the legate to destroy Prison 14!”What followed were the sounds of whirring…***At the same time, the sounds of guns firing rang out within Prison 14, followed by the bodies of the imprisoned criminals falling onto the ground, riddled with holes by the flurry of bullets.The same went for Scorpio. He was among the bodies lying in pools of their own blood despite maintaining communication with Wallace from inside his prison cell.Yet, Adrian’s fury still was not quelled. He wanted everyone remotely involved with the matter killed!At that moment, as Reiss looked at how furious Adrian was and the endless sound of bullets entered her ear, she finally understood just what kind of person Adrian truly was. She felt that the Adrian she was looking

    However, a sudden explosion shocked them all.People quickly turned toward the forest deep within the mountains, wondering what had just happened there.More explosions followed…Meanwhile, within the governor’s office in Swallowston, Wallace seemed anxious as he sat in his office. His face quickly turned pale and he trembled the moment he heard the explosions.“What’s happening out there?!” Wallace yelled, and an employee walked in.“Sir, the Battle Warrior Department just blew up Prison 14!”“Wh-What?!” Wallace was so stunned that he collapsed onto the ground.‘Prison 14’s been blown up? The department can actually do such a thing?’Wallace was terrified, never expecting that the legate would be such a reckless man.‘He showed the governor’s office not the slightest bit of courtesy and blew up Prison 14???”Wallace’s mouth was ajar, stunned as he asked, “Wh-What happened to the people in there?”“They were all killed, including Paul.”“Wh-What about Chuck Wilson?”“He’s

    Adrian wanted to chase after her, but on second thought, chose not to.‘She probably needs some time to calm down. After all, even I need some time to myself sometimes.’Thus, Adrian continued to wait in the hospital hallway.After around twenty minutes, the clacking of high-heeled shoes could be heard. Samantha, who was in her uniform, now stood next to Adrian.Adrian was quite surprised to see her here. “Sam? What are you doing here?”Samantha’s face was slightly flushed as she asked, “What are you doing here all on your own?”She had no idea Adrian was at the hospital at that moment, and neither did he know that she was there too.“A friend is in the emergency ward and I’m waiting for him to come out. What about you?”“I’m here for a check-up.” Samantha’s face turned red as she said this.“What kind of check-up?”“A preconception checkup!”Samantha’s voice suddenly turned extremely soft as she continued, “I was originally planning on asking you to come with me but you sai

    Adrian clenched his fist slightly as his gaze turned ice cold.He swore, “I’ll get to the bottom of this… I’m going to find out who it was that put him in this bed.”After taking a deep breath, Samantha lamented, “I never thought he’d end up like this… He’s such a nice man and has done nothing to deserve this.”At that moment, Raquel Zayn, the battle warrior from Serpenshire, walked in with a few of her men. She was the only woman among the top ten strongest battle warriors and was only twenty-nine years old.Her abilities as a warrior were comparable to that of her male compatriots. Coupled with her beauty, she was regarded as the modern Deborah Sampson.“Have Lucas and the others left?” Adrian asked when he saw her walk in.“Lucas has returned to Southrive. Caine and Gale have also left on urgent matters, so I’m here to see if you need me for anything else since I’ve got time on my hands.”Adrian replied, “Have our men stationed at every single exit in Swallowston and conduct

    Immediately after Rue said this, Chuck’s finger suddenly twitched.After that, his eyelids flickered as he slowly opened them.Chuck had miraculously awoken from his coma!Rue was instantly overjoyed when she saw this and cried, “Nurse, nurse! He’s awake!”One of the two nurses walked over to Chuck’s bed while the other rushed off to call Robert.Robert soon arrived and checked Chuck’s vitals before nodding his head. “He woke up from his coma and there doesn’t seem to be anything out of the ordinary. All that’s left now is for him to get proper rest and let his injuries heal. We can remove the respirator now.”The nurses immediately got to work.An hour later, Chuck’s test results showed that aside from the occasional fluctuation, his breathing was relatively steady. He was fortunate that his windpipe was not slashed, or he would have been dead a long time ago.Chuck’s eyes remained wide open as he silently looked at Rue, who was sitting by his bed. He was still unable to speak

    Wallace lived in one of these villas, where the inside was in complete chaos.The Battle Warrior Department blowing up Prison 14 and taking Chuck Wilson with them definitely meant they were looking into the past case.Wallace had never met the legate so he thought that the latter would never dare to go up against the governor’s office despite how powerful he was.Unfortunately, he was very wrong.The legate would be brave enough to even turn Heaven upside down if he was furious enough, let alone a mere governor.“Hello? It’s Wallace. Inform my son to leave Southrive immediately and avoid any public interaction for the time being. He has to do it fast. Make him leave Swallowston tonight!” he yelled through the phone after calling someone.Wallace’s son’s name was Cormac Cook. As the governor of Internal Affairs, he knew that his son had done many unspeakable deeds.Usually, he would allow his son to do whatever he pleased because of how much he loved him. Yet, he had no idea that

    It was quite laughable to see the governor of Swallowston fall from grace.After seeing how Chuck was treated, Samantha felt just how unfair the world was.She said nothing more about the matter and continued to lay in Adrian’s arms, quickly falling asleep again because of how tired she was.***The next morning, Samantha headed off to the office with Joanna.Adrian also left home and called someone on the phone as he drove.It was a call to the king of Sormbay.A few years ago, Adrian got acquainted with the king, whose country was in chaos at the time. He had led his soldiers from Wyvern Peak to help resolve the matter. Because of this, the king was very much in Adrian’s debt and he very quickly answered the call.The king’s name was Shavit the 48th.When the call connected, Shavit said, “How can I help you, War Legate Draco?”Speaking fluently in Sormbay’s native language, Adrian said, “I need your help with something, Your Majesty.”“What is it?” Shavit asked.“In about

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?

    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. 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

    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
