The Return of the War Legate Chapter 430
At this point, Mandy started trembling in excitement.She was ecstatic. ‘He’s finally here!’“Ms. Mandy, an hour has passed. Aren’t you going to say something?” Sheldon asked as he checked the time and stood up.At that very moment…“Who’s there?!”Sheldon’s subordinates noticed something unusual and raised their guns. Yet, before they could fire their weapons, a sharp blade flew over and instantly slashed more than twenty people in the throat.They instantly collapsed dead on the ground.Surprised gasps came from Sheldon’s subordinates one after another until they were all dead.“What?” Sheldon was startled.Mandy said, “I told you someone is coming to deal with you.”Sheldon turned around upon hearing Mandy’s remark and saw a man wearing a battle suit walking toward him slowly.He instantly turned pale with fear. He pulled out his walkie-talkie and roared into it, “Everyone, gather at my spot! Gather at my spot!”Although Sheldon was roaring his lungs out, not a single vo

Sheldon aimed the gun at Adrian.At this very moment, his pounding heart slowly calmed down. He became much more spirited knowing that he had a gun in his hand.Sheldon sneered and said to Adrian, “Boy, tell me who you are. Otherwise, I’m going to blast your head open!”Adrian put his hands into the pockets of his battle suit upon hearing Sheldon’s remark. He said without answering Sheldon’s question, “Who are you collaborating with? How many people in Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division are working with the Luposians? Who are those involved? What is their purpose?”Sheldon was rather surprised because a person in Adrian’s position would kneel down and beg for mercy when a gun was pointed at them. It was apparently not the case with this man before his eyes.Sheldon swung his gun and berated angrily, “F*ck! Don’t you understand what I’m saying?! I bet you have no idea who I am. I shot fifty-four people to death on the streets seven years ago. That’s pretty impressive,
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 432
Sheldon’s jaw dropped and he was no longer capable of remaining composed.Adrian said, “Tell me, who’s your Luposian correspondent? Where is he? What are the names of the people from Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division who are working with Luposia?”Sheldon took a shaky breath and said, “Friend… Please don’t be so impulsive and listen to me first, will you? I—”Bang!Another shot was fired. This time, the bullet penetrated Sheldon’s left leg.Sheldon howled in pain.Adrian said, “Just answer my questions and spare me the small talk. I won’t listen to your pleas and will send you to Hell you’re done.”Sheldon roared, “I said, don’t kill me! Please spare my life!”Bang!Another shot was heard and Sheldon’s other leg was shot through as well.“Gahhhh!” Sheldon screamed. He had never expected this to happen to him.He had never encountered a person like Adrian who refused to give him a chance to speak and attacked without any pause.“My Luposian correspondent is nam

Sheldon was dead.The whole incident totaled to less than two hours from the time he abducted Mandy.The person, who was regarded as a troublesome person by Internal Affairs and the City Guardian Division in the past had died so easily in Adrian’s hands.However, Adrian felt no sense of calm as there were many things happening in the country without anyone’s notice. He exhaled deeply and made a call to Daniel and told him to someone to clean up the corpses.Soon after, the Battle Warrior Department announced that War Legate Draco had killed Sheldon. Moreover, the media journalists were invited to the crime scene to take photos of the corpse as verification.Sheldon’s death resolved the threat hanging over everyone.The legate’s reputation spread across Swallowston once again!***Soon, Adrian and Mandy left the scene.Mandy was feeling rather anxious as if she had yet to recover from the shock.They went to a small diner in Swallowston and sat down. She was starving from bein

“What illness did he have?”“They couldn’t find the cause of it but his body tissues were degenerating and he sweated blood. He looked extremely sallow and was barely surviving on intravenous nutrition at times,” Mandy said.Adrian tutted. He felt rather surprised because he had no idea Mandy had such a backstory. The woman was so noble that she was out of this world. She had taken it upon herself to marry the ill, bedridden man to take care of him.However, Adrian noticed something strange in the story.He asked, “Did he suddenly fall ill? If a healthy person falls sick, there should be a process to it, right?”Mandy raised her head to look at Adrian and said with a smile, “I shared the same thought as you in the past. I read through so much information but there wasn’t a proper explanation. In fact, I wondered if something did this to him at one point. However, I’ve failed to find any evidence.”Adrian shook his head in frustration. It was just the way life was at times.He sa

Adrian sent Mandy off after she finished her meal.He drove Mandy back to Swallowston Bank.Mandy got out of the car and smiled at Adrian. “Legate, thank you for your help and for saving my life. I owe you a life.”Mandy said this in a solemn manner.Adrian, “I shall remember that!”“Heh…” Mandy chuckled but did not comment any further and walked into Swallowston Bank.Adrian returned to New Paraiso.Samantha and Joanna had already seen the related information in the news from New Paraiso’s office. They learned that War Legate Draco had killed Sheldon and all the escaped prisoners had been executed. The Battle Warrior Department had already cleaned up the scene.As soon as Adrian walked into the office, Joanna smiled and said, “Our big hero is back.”Samantha looked at Adrian with a bright smile. “Dear, we saw the news.”Adrian asked, “How did I do?”Samantha nodded and gave him a thumbs-up.Joanna said in a sarcastic tone, “How did you do? Are you fishing for compliments?

‘It’s been so many years… The young man who would poke at hornet’s nests with me has now become a famous general.‘Meanwhile, I'm nobody.’Chuck always felt inferior in comparison to Adrian.‘But, if I think of it, the fact that we've been best friends since little hasn’t changed even though he’s super famous now.’At that thought, Chuck handed the broom back to Adrian with a smile and said, “I completely forgot. I keep thinking that you’re War Legate Draco and have been feeling very distant from you so I’ve been on my toes.”“Didn’t your father teach you not to forget your roots? My dad taught me that. He said I should never forget who I am no matter what I become.”“You’re right. Does this mean we’re still best friends?”Adrian nodded. “Of course, we are.”The two looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, another voice said, “What about me?”Reiss, wearing a pair of shorts, walked in and looked at the two men.“Reiss? What are you doing here? Didn’t you return to Northrive
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 437
Adrian, Reiss, and Chuck began to clean up the house.Reiss was a natural-born perfectionist so she managed to clean up the house that had been left uninhabited for two years until it was squeaky clean. In the midst of cleaning, she suddenly thought of something and asked, “By the way, what are your plans now, Chubbs? Do you have something in mind?”Chuck was now a free man and needed to reenter society.Hearing this question, he sighed and said, “I haven’t decided on anything yet. I don’t know what I should do now. I was thinking of getting a job at a factory first since I haven’t got any skills to speak of.”Reiss shot a look at Adrian before saying, “You’ve got a rich friend right over there so there’s nothing for you to worry about. I’m sure you’ll be set for life if he decides to help you.”Chuck smiled when he heard this, also turning to glance at Adrian. “As rich as he is, I can’t possibly ask him to take care of me for the rest of my life, can I? I still have to work and e

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
