"They're going to kill us!" the Stormwatch Legionnaires exclaimed in panic. They had never been sent to the battlefield, and some of them started going weak in the knees. Engaging in combat with the Frontier Force was something they had never dared to imagine.After Dominique left Adrian, he sighed. Although he knew Adrian was intent on eradicating the Stormwatch Legion, he did not want it to happen. It was not because he feared losing. After all, the Frontier Force was unbeatable in Silverboa. It was just that he did not want his men to kill their own people. Such actions would not only lead to irreversible consequences. but also adversely affect his future career prospects."Freed, come here," Dominique called upon one of his lieutenants. "Captain! What are your orders?" Freed replied.Dominique waved and said, "I want you to gather a group of people and then infiltrate the Stormwatch Legion camp. After you find their captain, tell them to clear the way for us. Otherwise, there
Freed and his companions were aware of the situation, and they did not want to resort to violence against their own people either. Through their quick and coordinated actions, several captains disregarded Gaius' orders and cleared a path. The Frontier Force entered the Stormwatch Legion camp without encountering any resistance. They would never do such a thing in normal warfare, especially considering their numerical disadvantage. After all, entering enemy territory was a death sentence. However, the Stormwatch Legion and the Frontier Force understood that this battle could not proceed, as neither side wished to harm their own. Additionally, even if the Stormwatch Legion had the advantage, they refrained from using force.When Thobias and the others received the news, it was already too late for them to run. Adrian had already appeared in the Mansion's hall, with Lillian and Wallace following closely behind him."Adrian?!" Kevin exclaimed."Mr. Thobias, Mr. Kevin, and you must be Mr
"If you don't confess, I'll kill your son right now," Adrian said coldly. Thobias' face sank, but he still refused to say anything even if it would cost his son's life. "Father! Save me!" Kevin pleaded. Unfortunately, his plea did not soften his father's heart."I'm sorry. I don't know what you're talking about," Thobias continued to deny, "There are no Celestrians here." Adrian chuckled upon seeing Thobias' resolute demeanor. Meanwhile, Dominique fell silent when he saw that Adrian was going to kill Kevin. Although he knew this matter was related to the Celestrians and would likely result in casualties later, they still did not possess any evidence at the moment. If Adrian killed Kevin, they would likely get into big trouble. Fortunately, Adrian had no intentions of killing Kevin. He turned to Wallace and Lillian, saying, "Go check the backyard.""What?! No! You can't go there!" Thobias growled, blocking their path.However, Wallace had had enough of Thobias. With a swift s
The group walked into the backyard. Upon seeing the bodies in the pit, Adrian furrowed his brow."I saw these three people last night. They must have the clues that we need!" Adrian said. He knew there had to be something in the backyard, but he had not expected to find only three corpses. Besides the lead about the casino in the south of the city he obtained from Kevin, there seemed to be no other leads.Adrian's expression soured a bit as he walked out of the backyard, while Dominique continued to keep his eyes on the three men."Did you kill them?" Adrian asked."They committed suicide. After they failed to kill you, they realized things were hopeless and killed themselves," Kevin replied. Adrian nodded. He knew that the Celestrians were known for their fearless spirit. "Apart from the casino where we can find the contact person for the restorationists, do you have any other information about them?" Adrian asked.Shaking his head, Kevin replied, "No, although we provide the
Adrian glanced at the server. From the man’s features, Adrian could tell that he was a Celestrian."You're a Celestrian?" Adrian asked.The server seemed accustomed to such questions and nodded with a smile. "Indeed, I am of Celestrian descent. Even this casino is owned by Celestrians.""Can you take me to your boss?" Adrian asked. He was not afraid of alarming anyone as they had already found the place and the person could not escape. "What are you here for? Why do you want to see our boss?" the server asked cautiously,"Hehe! I suspect you are related to the restorationists, so I want to see your boss," Adrian replied. "Why you…" The server was annoyed, and Adrian could tell from his attitude that this server was probably not the contact person."Kurt! There's someone causing trouble here. Escort them out!" The server's smile disappeared, replaced by a grim expression as he yelled toward the guards stationed at the door.The surrounding gamblers paid no mind to the commotio
Adrian had to admit that the woman before him was one of the prettiest women he had ever seen in his life. From her features to her figure, everything about her was impeccable. More importantly, he noticed some semblance of Celestrians in her facial features. She was probably of mixed Silverboan and Celestrian ancestry.As the woman stepped out of the room and saw Adrian and Lillian, she raised her hand slightly and gestured to the server not to panic. With a smile, she walked up to Adrian and Lillian and asked, "May I ask what brings you two here?""Where is the headquarters of the Celestrian Restorationists?" Adrian asked."Celestrian Restorationists?" The woman's brows furrowed slightly. "Are you kidding me, young man? We are running a legitimate business here, with a business license issued by the state government. There are no restorationists here.""The state government? The Remingtons and Gaius from the Stormwatch Legion have been arrested by the Frontier Force. No one is go
"Seriously? You must be delusional. Are you sure there are eight people here?" Wallace asked. Latitia was stunned for a moment. She turned to the waiter and asked in a stern voice, "Where's Garcia?""Wh-What? H-he was just here…" the server stammered.Latitia's face sank. "What is that old guy doing? He's not doing anything fishy behind my back, is he?" she mumbled.Meanwhile, Adrian observed the casino as they began searching for Garcia. Suddenly, he asked, "Is he wearing a red robe?""How did you know? Have you seen him?" Latitia asked."Well, not quite, but I know where he is now," Adrian said, then suddenly disappeared from where he stood.Latitia froze in place. She was skeptical when Adrian said he could summon the Frontier Force, but witnessing his demonstrated power now sparked doubt in her mind. "Is he one of those strong individuals from the Frontier Force?" she mumbled.Latitia knew that if Garcia was one of the restorationists, there was no way she could continue o
"Sorry, my patience is limited," Adrian said.Latitia sighed helplessly. Garcia had been her employee for several years. He presented himself as loyal and faithful, so she never expected him to be connected to the restorationists. "Where's Rozi? You'd better tell us the truth. Otherwise, your fate will be a lot worse than death," Adrian said coldly.Gritting his teeth, Garcia growled, "Silverboan, don't think you can make me submit so easily! If you want me to spill the truth, you can try!""I’ll take you up on that.”Adrian was never one to show mercy to his enemies. He covered the entire backyard with his Draco Force, causing both Latitia and the other Celestrians to pale. It felt as though a guillotine hung over their heads, waiting to slice their neck at any moment.Garcia was not in a good shape either. He was already injured, and now he could barely withstand Adrian's Draco Force. He managed to hold on for a whole minute, but his already weakened state caused him to almost
