Chapter 1704
The soldiers around Gunner felt helpless. However, at that moment, gunshots rang out from a distance.Rat-ta-ta!As the shots echoed, the soldiers on the rooftops excitedly raised their heads and shouted, "Sir, that was gunshots! And they sound very close!" Having spent so much time here without seeing any signs of other survivors, the gunshots signaled to them that there were people nearby, and they were fighting back."It sounds like there aren't too many of them. Let's fire our guns to let them know where we are. The rest of you, prepare for battle. We need to help them!" Gunner shouted.Every additional person was an added glimmer of hope, and Wyvern Peak never abandoned any living person. Several guns went off from the rooftop, and bullets pierced the sky. Some tensed up as firing their guns also meant attracting the monsters nearby.Sure enough, a small group of monsters soon rushed toward the village. However, the men of Wyvern Peak stood strong. Over twenty of them con

The bullets shone like shooting stars in the pitch-black night. Monsters swarming from all directions fell to the ground one by one, turning Kerning into a battlefield. Adrian and the women relentlessly pushed back the wave of monsters."Sir, am I seeing this right? I-Is that…" One of the soldiers excitedly stared at Adrian, who was fighting fiercely from the truck's rooftop. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.Gunner shouted, "It is! It's War Legate Draco!"At that moment, everyone was overwhelmed by an indescribable shock that made them feel suffocated. The name “Draco” had disappeared from their lives, yet the man was now right in front of them."He's here! Sir is Draco here!" "Sir!" "Sir!" Endless shouts erupted on the rooftops as soldiers excitedly called out to Adrian. He heard them but simply gestured at them to continue fighting. "Yes, sir!""Everyone, listen up! Sir Draco's here!“Fire everything you've got and let's kill these b*stards!"Excited voices fill

After the reset, the soldiers had lost all hope. They have not expected to meet Adrian again at such a challenging moment."What are you doing here, sir?" "We didn't think we'd ever see here.""He's right, sir. We feel so much safer now that you're here."The soldiers surrounded Adrian, each of them expressing their excitement. Adrian jumped down from the truck and joined the crowd of over fifty who were thrilled beyond measure. He smiled at them and said, "My brethren, you've all done an excellent job during this trying time. I know you've all done everything you could."Adrian's words moved everyone to tears. Gunner approached and said, "Sir, I used to serve under Cadel and was visiting home on leave when the disaster struck. I rounded up those here, and we’ve been fighting against the monsters since then. We lost many of our brothers before we managed to retreat to this village and make this place our last stand."Adrian asked, "What's your name?""Gunner Sturgis, sir."

Ten minutes later, all the surviving villagers of Kerning boarded the cargo truck. Adrian divided Gunner and the soldiers into two teams. One team was to be on the rooftop as lookouts while the other guarded from the inside of the vehicle. Ivy and Eira took turns driving, and Adrian allowed Nyssa to rest in the back of the truck. Thanks to the addition of Gunner and his team, Adrian now had the chance to take a brief rest. The truck set off fifteen minutes later, leaving Kerning behind. After taking a detour, they were back on the highway and headed toward Novemton.Adrian had a four-hour nap. When he woke up, he climbed to the roof, where Ivy reported, "We're about four hours away from Novemton. There will likely be many monsters outside the city, so we need to figure out how we're going to get inside."Entering Novemton was going to be challenging. The outside of the city was infested with monsters. Even Climbers had been spotted inside the walls.Adrian attempted to establish a

"Everyone, get to the roof and prepare for battle!" Gunner shouted.The soldiers climbed onto the roof, put their backs against each other, and crouched as they scanned the direction they were guarding. Novemton was just ahead, and with each step closer, they could see more monsters lining the road. These monsters were rushing toward Novemton, and their numbers were growing exponentially.As the truck continued to advance, the surrounding monsters multiplied. They charged toward the truck in a maddened frenzy when they sensed humans nearby."Kill them!" Adrian ordered.Gunshots rang out, and bullets sliced through the air, piercing the monsters.The battle had begun.The monsters, originally heading toward Novemton, were now drawn toward Adrian and his group. Ivy pushed the truck forward and barrelled down the highway like a giant snake. The monsters had a tough time catching up with the truck, but a large number of them were now in pursuit."The monsters at the back can't reach

As Novemton drew closer, the monsters around them multiplied crazily. The numbers outside Novemton were astonishing, exceeding what Adrian had encountered back in Swallowston countless times over.Unlike Swallowston, the monsters outside Novemton were limited to the outer ring as an inner wall had been erected to prevent them from entering. The army of monsters exuded a menacing aura, and their strong, foul stench filled the air. Adrian said, "Stay sharp, everyone.!With bated breath, they continued to face the relentless onslaught of monsters. Gunner and his team had never seen so many monsters, not even during their time in Kerning."They’re closing in!" Ivy called out.The roar of the truck's engine had attracted the attention of many monsters. Some charged toward the truck, and like a chain reaction, more and more followed. Bullets zipped through the air, and Adrian and Gunner stood back to back, facing the approaching monsters. The second squad and their leader looked up a

"Hurry up!" Rozi shouted to the truck.Ivy floored the accelerator, and the truck hurtled toward the city at full speed. The soldiers along the path of light formed a protective shield around the truck as it plowed through the monsters."Ivy, get everyone into the city!" Adrian called out.After conveying his orders, he leaped off the truck and summoned Dragonbane, which then transformed into countless golden streaks of light. He exchanged a glance with Rozi, then leaped into the air and stabbed his sword into the ground. The monsters wailed and were sent flying as Dragonbane touched the earth and set off a series of explosions.Adrian and Rozi stood back-to-back, ready to confront the incoming wave of monsters. Meanwhile, Ivy continued to drive the truck along the path of light. Seeing that the truck had moved farther away, Adrian shouted, "Squad one! Retreat and support squad two!"Upon hearing his orders, the soldiers from the first line swiftly retreated toward the city. Adria
Chapter 1711
Adrian was originally under the impression that Hugh was not very impressive. Crystal was the one who promoted him, but Adrian had never been particularly impressed by Hugh's abilities. However, he refrained from commenting out of respect for Crystal. It was now clear to Adrian that Hugh was underutilizing his talents while being Crystal's subordinate.Half an hour later, Adrian held a meeting at headquarters. Several upper management personnel attended the meeting, and he shared with them what Philip had said about Crutcher. Steel and the others were confused when they heard the story."Sir, are you saying you intend to leave Novemton again to find this Crutcher fellow?" Steel asked.Adrian nodded in confirmation. The information Philip had revealed regarding Crutcher might contain crucial insights into the future. Having no means of dealing with the Creator, Adrian was willing to explore all possibilities, including the ones that had very little success and very high risks.He ex
