"I'm here to tell you something. You’re absolutely right; Mark Turner is colluding with Falconia. And as for the people in the base, I've eliminated them," Adrian said indifferently.Everyone was stunned. Some wanted to speak, but no words came out.“What nonsense. How could you destroy such a large group on your own?" Grizwald said."You can go and see for yourself if you don’t believe me," Adrian replied.The villagers exchanged glances. They couldn't tell if Adrian was telling the truth, but his serious expression made them think he might be."Wait here, I'll be right back," someone said, then dashed off.He soon returned, eyes wide with disbelief, and the crowd asked, "What happened?""I don't know if he wiped out those people, but the base is engulfed in flames. It's been destroyed," the man reported.Everyone was shocked. They couldn't believe Adrian had single-handedly wiped out a base full of strong fighters."Did you really wipe them all out?" Grizwald asked, eyes wid

At first glance, everything seemed the same as before. However, upon closer inspection, Adrian sensed something different. He noticed that there were significantly fewer people on the streets. Though Westania was not particularly large, it had a population of over three million. The streets were usually bustling with people, so it seemed close to deserted now.Adrian expanded his consciousness and scanned the area. Then, he realized something serious. The air was permeated with an imperceptible scent of blood. It was so well-hidden that ordinary people would not detect it. Only someone like himself could have detected it.Catching onto the scent, Adrian's heart sank. He then realized he was surrounded by numerous individuals akin to mindless zombies. These people were soldiers, but they were clearly under some form of control.Mark then appeared and thundered, "Hah! I thought you were dead, Adrian! Can’t believe you're still alive!"According to his plan, Adrian should be dead by n

“Do you plan to hide in that shell forever? How long do you think you can keep this up?" Mark taunted as his attacks grew even more ferocious, but Adrian remained unfazed, simply observing Mark closely.Mark drew his strength from the residents of Westania. If Adrian attacked him directly, it could endanger the citizens’ lives. Therefore, Adrian had to find a method that would neutralize Mark without harming the citizens. And this challenge was daunting. Finding a solution that preserved the lives of the citizens while defeating Mark seemed nearly impossible. If he couldn’t find one, he would have to sacrifice them to eliminate Mark.'If I let Mark go unchecked, Falconia will perfect their human experimentation. They would then be able to create countless powerful beings similar to him. If that happens, not just Aethersphere, but the entire world will be in grave danger,' Adrian thought.Sacrificing the three million residents of Westania to save the billions worldwide could be seen

Before he could do anything, Adrian's next wave of attacks swiftly followed.Initially, Mark managed to resist a few blows. However, he was slowly overwhelmed by Adrian's attack. Eventually, he could not defend himself anymore and fell with a final cry of defeat. At this moment, his dark energy did not disperse into the surroundings. Instead, Adrian absorbed it into himself.'Next, I'll use the power of the Draco Vein to dissolve this,' Adrian thought and began to act accordingly.A powerful energy enveloped Adrian and started pressing in on him. Through this tactic, all the power of the Draco Vein would be utilized to combat the dark energy. He refused to believe that this dark energy could stand against the might of the Draco Vein.Finally, with a roar from Adrian and a thunderous boom, the blood-red clouds and dark miasma dissipated. Everything returned to normal, and the citizens who were enslaved were out of danger."Mr. Adrian!"Some people rushed in through the city gates.

The next morning, a carriage entered Westania, and from it emerged a person. He was the envoy from the Council of Elders who was tasked with appointing Machias as the mayor of Westania. "Welcome, welcome! You must be tired after your journey. Please, come to the mayor’s residence and have a rest," Adrian greeted warmly. "No need, just proceed with the appointment. Once it's done, I'll be on my way," the envoy replied. Adrian and the others nodded. They understood that the envoy had other matters to attend to, so they did not press him to stay.Next came the appointment ceremony. Luckily, they had prepared everything beforehand, so the process went smoothly. Once everything was done, Machias officially became the mayor. Adrian and the others stood by, congratulating him one by one. Machias was visibly excited. Despite his earlier reluctance, he seemed to genuinely appreciate his new position."Well, now that everything's settled, I should be leaving. We'll meet again someday!" A
