Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 2871 - Bab 2880

Alfie sighed. They had sought Adrian out because they thought he looked tough and capable. They wanted to ask him for help in dealing with a few individuals in the adjacent cabin. Afterwards, they would give Adrian some compensation.However, they did not expect him to see through their intentions and expose their biggest weakness. With things now revealed, whether they could walk off this ship alive became questionable."These spirit crystals are for my cousin," Alfie said solemnly."Your cousin?" Adrian asked."That's right. My cousin is a lieutenant in the frontier force of Silverboa," Alfie replied proudly, "He mentioned that with the war at a critical stage and the battlefield so distant from Silverboa, logistics were a bit strained. He requested us to deliver something to him.""Even if logistics are lacking, it's not something a lieutenant should worry about. Your explanation doesn't convince me," Adrian said as he drew the Divine Frost Slayer Blade. The air temperature dro

As there were still two days before they reached shore, Adrian felt bored and decided to have some fun. The only way to have fun on the lower deck was probably drinking and fighting. It seemed like the other party had the same idea, so they had been persistently causing trouble for Alfie and the others these past few days.The five men walked out of the cabin, and some whispered to Adrian, "This might sound a little over the top, but please don't use your sword even if things escalate. It won't look good if things get out of hand.""Don't worry, I'll only need my fists," Adrian said.Alfie and the others became speechless. Alfie turned around and said, "Don't kill anyone either! It will only make things worse.”Adrian chuckled and nodded. He could not comprehend why they reacted so strongly to what was just a joke.As they walked along, Adrian noted that the lower deck was far from satisfactory. The noise from the boiler room and the crashing waves was deafening, and the air was t

"We didn't dare venture into the tomb because there was something strange in the tunnel we explored," Brutus said in a trembling voice as he nursed his fingers.Adrian fell into contemplation. The tomb described by Brutus matched the one he had discovered the Divine Frost Slayer Sword in. It was right that they decided not to venture inside because what lay in the depths of the tunnel was terrifying. After traversing the tunnel, they would enter a very peculiar place. It was similar to their environment, and everything felt so real. Adrian had not brought many people inside, and only a few of them had made it out alive.After they came out of the tomb, they all recounted their experience inside the tunnel. Most of them entered a similar illusionary realm, but their experiences were different. Some encountered attacks from various monsters but managed to escape. Despite being injured in that place, they found no wounds on their body after coming out. This led Adrian to suspect that

A few minutes later, the person tasked with inspecting the pouch returned. Although the cabin's air circulation wasn't great and it felt a bit stuffy, it shouldn't make one sweat profusely given the weather. But the person who returned was not only sweating; his entire body was drenched in a cold sweat. His hands that were holding onto the pouch revealed bulging veins.As he entered, he kept looking around, afraid that someone would snatch the pouch from his hands. He lowered his voice, excitedly saying, "There… There really is one hundred million inside here!"Brutus turned to look at Adrian, nodding and saying, "I'll take you to see the goods." He quickly put away the pouch into his pocket and looked warily at Alfie and the others.Adrian followed Brutus to the latter’s room. Alfie and the others followed along. They were very curious about what Adrian was willing to spend one hundred million to buy.After arriving at Brutus' cabin, they saw that there were two people guarding th

Alfie tossed and turned, then looked out at the dark and calm waves outside his window. The wind was calm. The water wasn’t always turbulent, sometimes even appearing rather serene. At this moment, the sea seemed exceptionally deep under the moonlight, so deep that it felt somewhat unsettling.Suddenly, Alfie noticed a slender, fair hand clinging to the windowsill and went wide-eyed. The hand was clearly that of a woman’s, and it was too pale. The moonlight showed that it lacked any trace of blood.Feeling like his eyes were playing tricks on him, Alfie abruptly sat up and took a closer look. He rubbed his eyes, finding it hard to believe what he saw. ‘It must be my imagination,’ he thought.Then he lay back down, turning his back to the window. Out of sight, out of mind, right?But for some reason, Alfie then felt a chilling breeze brushing against the back of his neck, sending shivers down his spine. His hair stood on end, and he sat back up and turned to the window again, and
