The outside world recognized Adrian's past dominance in Silverboa, but these individuals underestimated his true power. He had managed to take command of Silverboa's underground forces in a remarkably short time. Those in the know understood that the city's underworld was merely a playground for him."Do you think you can avoid trouble if you don't provoke him?" Jayden's face flushed with anger, his voice carrying a hint of frustration. After all, the Crosses had been offering these people thirty percent of their annual income."What are you suggesting?"Jayden smirked coldly and replied, "You exploited his absence to seize his territory. Do you believe he'll let that slide? Unless, of course, you're willing to relinquish everything you've gained."Though reluctant to provoke Adrian, Jayden's words plunged the three men into deep thought. None were willing to surrender their newfound power and interests. They dreaded returning to lives where they were hunted like prey."Sixty perc

Jaxson emerged, his gaze sweeping sternly across his surroundings. "Let's go in.” He sighed.All traces of bloodstains in the hall had been meticulously removed. Aside from the knife marks, it was hard to believe a fierce battle had occurred there.Zector descended the stairs slowly. Spotting Jaxson, he offered a polite smile and said, "Jaxson, Mr. Adrian is waiting for you upstairs."Taking a deep breath, Jaxson asked, "Zector, are Daim and his soldiers still alive?"Zector nodded toward a nearby Dark Knight and replied, "We left them alive, but many succumbed to their injuries."The Dark Knight approached a curtain and yanked it aside.Swish!Jaxson turned his head and gasped, feeling a chill run down his spine. Even his two personal guards beside him were visibly horrified, their eyes fixed accusingly on Zector.Behind the curtain lay a heap of hundreds of unconscious soldiers, blood dripping and pooling on the floor."If they hadn't been misled, they'd be dead by now. You

The words sent chills down everyone's spine, making them tremble.Zain, now pale with fright and far from his previous wild demeanor, wept bitterly. He crawled to Adrian's feet, repeatedly begging for mercy, "Adrian... No, Mr. Adrian. I beg you, spare me. Please spare me."Thud! Thud! Thud!The sound of Zain knocking on the ground with his forehead echoed continuously, but Adrian ignored Zain and turned his gaze to Jaxson, making his intention clear: Zain must die today.Although Jaxson appeared to side with Adrian since he entered, speaking up for him and dismissing Zain from his position, it was all a facade. He had avoided the key issue, never stating how he intended to punish Zain. Was simply dismissing him enough to atone for his sins?If it weren't for Zector and the Dark Knight at Flying Dragon Mansion today, judging by Zain's character, he might have slaughtered everyone in the manor, including Solomon and his daughter Flora.Jaxson scowled. He hadn't expected Adrian to b

"Ah! You bastard!" The pen pinned the black-masked man’s foot firmly to the ground, and fresh blood flowed into the cracks between the floor tiles.The ground, paved with square tiles, cracked open like glass. The black-masked man's heart and body trembled violently as he inhaled a cold breath.‘Is this man even human?’ he cried silently.The pen had erupted with the power of a sharp arrow."Tell me, who sent you to kill me?" Adrian walked slowly toward the man, his steps leisurely and casual.The black-masked man's gaze was ferocious, veins bulging on his forehead. He waved, and a crossbow mechanism suddenly appeared in his hand, the black muzzle exuding a dangerous aura."Hehe, you'll find out in the afterlife,” he growled.Bang! Bang! Bang!A maniacal grin spread across the black-masked man's lips as he was filled with the insane joy of avenging his hatred. "Hahaha! Adrian, no matter how formidable you are, you'll die under my attack!"In his mind, he envisioned Adrian lyin

At Abry Hills...A Dark Knight approached Adrian, bursting with excitement as he reported, "Mr. Adrian, there's a stronghold up ahead, approximately fifty people." His eyes shimmered with fervor and awe.Adrian gently patted the Dark Knight's shoulder and spoke kindly, "Well done. Rest for now. Let the second team begin their operation." He then turned to the other Dark Knights. "To the rest of the teams, conduct a thorough search. If you encounter resistance, eliminate it. We'll meet at their headquarters."Encouraged by Adrian's instructions, the young Dark Knight saluted earnestly, his excitement palpable. "Yes, sir."After an hour of swift action, Adrian's Dark Knights had completely eradicated all the small and large outposts surrounding the Black King League's headquarters. Thirty outposts, with over eight hundred occupants, fell to the surprise attacks of Adrian's elite soldiers. Not a single enemy soldier was spared.Adrian's Dark Knights were seasoned veterans, each capab
