Semua Bab The Return of the War Legate: Bab 3071 - Bab 3080

The supply convoy fell swiftly to Adrian and his team. Nearly 20 bodies lay in pools of blood. The mountain bandits, concealed on the hillside, mirrored the horror etched on the faces of their victims. Even after witnessing Adrian's ruthless methods the day before, the sight was still jarring.."If even an ordinary squad from Silverboa has such a destructive power, do we really need to fight this battle?" Ashton murmured in awe."Sir, that's impossible. He said he could speak favorably for us in front of the mayor. This means that his status in Silverboa City isn't low," one of his subordinates quickly responded."Yeah, if you ever become successful, don't forget us!" Another chimed in."Hmph! Even if I die, I won't grovel to the people of Silverboa City!" Another voice echoed. Some glared at the speaker, but upon seeing him, they all withdrew their angry gazes. "Grayson, what do you mean?" Ashton asked."Nothing! They're from Silverboa City, and we're from Obscura City. I hop

Currently, their aim was to assimilate into the fabric of the city, whether as a resident of Obscura City, a native of Sandstone City, a refugee from Leafall, or hailing from elsewhere.Once integrated into the city, they aimed to expand their influence, each assembling a team of over 100 individuals within a week. This meant Adrian would command a force of 5,000 soldiers in just seven days.Such a number would pose a significant threat to the central defense hubs scattered throughout Sandstone City.While Adrian alone couldn't breach four defense formations, it would lead him to exhaustion. That wasn't his intention. Hence, besides rallying troops, Adrian mulled over alternative strategies.As Adrian strolled the lively streets of Sandstone City, a plan formed in his mind. Just like a coin, every city had two sides.Currently, Sandstone lay under the sway of the official forces, personified by Sid. Accepting this reality, Adrian pinned his hopes on the hidden powers lurking in th

The thug smirked."Don't push it, Willie. I know you're targeting me, but I'm not like those ordinary women. Don't push me too hard!" Bethan Doherty looked at the thug, Willie, coldly.When Willie met her gaze, he suddenly felt a chill enveloping his body."Bethan, stop!"Clang!The flash of a blade made a sharp metallic sound. Everyone in the restaurant, except Adrian, froze in shock. He set down his utensils, lowered his head, and looked at the broken ice cone on the ground with a thoughtful expression."Bethan! Come back! Don't let your sister take control of you!" Billy appeared extremely anxious. The thugs, who had narrowly avoided disaster, now felt not only stunned but terrified as well, because the hair of the girl sitting across from them had suddenly turned all white. Even more terrifying was the transformation of her pupils from black to pure white like snowflakes. When they were stared at by those pupils, they felt a chill run down their spine."Snow Lady?" Adrian lo

Willie’s companions who had planned to rush forward hesitated upon witnessing his pitiable state, choosing to keep their distance instead. Willie clutched his injured wrist, crying in agony.Adrian stood before him, observing with cold detachment. "Are you still inclined to challenge me?""Who are you? What do you want? If it's money you're after, we can provide it. Just give us a little time," Willie implored."I have no interest in money. I simply require your presence," Adrian stated as he headed back toward the restaurant, prompting Willie and the others to follow, who did so reluctantly."Willie, is your hand alright?" one of the group inquired anxiously.Willie was about to respond, but to his astonishment, he found his wrist had healed. "How...""The world holds far greater mysteries than you can fathom. Stay with me, and you'll witness its wonders," the man ahead declared.The thugs’ initial terror and anger morphed into awe. At that moment, they grasped that Adrian oper

As Adrian spoke, he pushed open the wooden door before him and stepped into the courtyard. The casino buzzed with activity, with numerous guards stationed around in varied attire, likely to deter unruly gamblers from causing trouble. However, those present dismissed Adrian as just another patron here to try his luck, paying him little heed.Willie trailed behind Adrian, wearing a flattering smile as he explained, "With the recent crackdown, many gamblers have flocked to our casino. The place has become quite lively."Adrian offered a slight nod before striding deeper into the casino. He harbored no interest in gambling; those who pinned their hopes of changing their lives on chance were individuals he held in contempt. Navigating through several courtyards, he was enveloped in an atmosphere of decadence. Just as he neared the final courtyard, he was halted by a figure stationed at the gate.Willie stepped forward, adopting a humble tone. "Mr. Monty, this gentleman is a guest I've br
