Chapter 1733
Adrian knew that the Gost Emperor had used some sort of parasite to control the zombie guards in Enigma City. More accurately, they were worms Rozi extracted from the meteorites and genetically modified. She then created a serum that allowed control over them, which the emperor used to manufacture large numbers of zombie guards.The monster Adrian had encountered appeared similar to those worms. However, Enigma City had been destroyed, so it was unlikely for them to be present there. The only explanation was this monster was connected to how the zombie guards were made.Rozi once mentioned that Enigma City existed long before the Gost Emperor took over. That suggested everything that was happening in the present was a unique marking left behind many years ago.'Forget it. I have to get to the shrine as soon as possible. I might find a clue there.' Adrian submerged again and continued his journey. Fortunately, he did not encounter any more of those monsters, allowing him to reach t

According to the records, Enneagon's parents passed away at an early age and he had worked as a laborer for a local employer to make ends meet. Later in life, he joined Wyvern Peak and went on to achieve legendary status.The second statue was of War Legate Celest. He sported a long beard and a golden battle suit. Brandishing a great ax, he exuded a strong murderous intent. Celest, whose real name was Marcoh Artois, came fifty years after Enneagon. He was the blacksmith of Vanglesville, known for having crafted remarkable weapons. During the war, he wielded the ax he had forged himself and gained fame in battle.The third statue was War Legate Genesis, followed by War Legate Drakirin, and War Legate Victor.The last statue was of War Legate Dominus.The sixth legate, Jerome, was depicted holding a sword as he stood at Navia's natural moat, fighting against the Eight Hollows. His statue was added after he killed the Eight Hollows, and the town of Vanglesville was also renamed Sixang

The woman calmed down a little when she heard this, and Adrian realized she was blind.As she cowered fearfully, Adrian asked, "What's your name?"The woman hesitated for a moment, then responded in a hoarse voice, "Marissa Shore.""Marissa…" Adrian softly repeated. He fished out a packet of beef jerky and a bottle of water and placed them in Marissa’s hands.When she touched the bottle, her throat seized up. Her lips were deadly parched as she had not eaten or drank for several days."It's clean water I got from a market. You're severely dehydrated, so I’ll add some salt to the water. Take a few sips first," Adrian said as he opened the bottle.Marissa’s hands trembled as she whispered, "Thank you."Following Adrian's advice, she took only a couple of sips. It was essential to drink slowly when severely dehydrated to prevent any discomfort or harm.Adrian then tore open the beef jerky packet and offered it to Marissa. "It's yak jerky. Take three pieces first."Marissa accepte

Adrian said, "Marissa, listen to me. You need to stay strong for Sean's sake and not give up, okay?""But what hope is there left for me? I’m blind, and they say there are monsters out there," Marissa sobbed."I'm here, aren't I?" Adrian replied earnestly."What's your name? How did you get here? Sean said the place is overrun with monsters and that many people have been killed," Marissa tearfully asked.Adrian continued to smile at Marissa despite her inability to see."First, take a few more sips of water and eat some more. I'll answer your questions after that," Adrian urged.Marissa nodded in agreement, then took a few sips from the water bottle and ate more jerky."My name’s Adrian, and I came here to find clues.""Adrian?" Marissa inquired. "I know Wyvern Peak had a legate named Adrian."Adrian smiled. "You seem quite knowledgeable. By the way, how did you and Sean end up here? Where did you two come from?"Marissa answered, "Sean and I are both from Vanglesville. One d

"The War Legate Shrine is where hope begins?" Adrian murmured. It seemed that Sean possessed some sort of information. He then asked, "Why did he say that?"Marissa shook her head. "I don't know. He came here often and told me that something here would give me back my sight. My mother and everyone else all thought he was mad and would criticize him.""Has he ever brought you here before the disaster?" Adrian inquired.Marissa shook her head again. "He'd always come alone. He’d always be in a bad mood after coming here. He'd sometimes even get mad at me.""What made him so upset?""I don't know." Marissa continued to shake her head.A few questions arose in Adrian's mind. Sean mentioned that this shrine was where hope began, which meant he must have learned something from this place, maybe even a prediction of the future.In this world, being able to predict the future was not an uncommon occurrence. For example, Hannibal predicted the events at Wyvern Peak, Rozi predicted the ev

Adrian had witnessed these prophecies coming true. To stop them from becoming reality, he tampered with Juno's body before she participated in the selection, which resulted in her unfortunate withdrawal. Later on, Enigma City emerged and the Gost Emperor was resurrected. Rozi woke up, and Dragonbane acknowledged Adrian as its master. Adrian then went on to discover the Creator's secrets and the location of the palace that led to Wonder's world. He entered the Celestial Lake and found a stone similar to the metal block found at St. Elmer's Church atop the Apex Obelisk. Subsequently, the world was reset, and Adrian believed that Wonder had left behind a key to open the gateway to a new world. All of this revolved around one common character—Wonder. Although he and the Creator came to a truce, Wonder was not satisfied with the outcome and knew that the Creator would return to strike again after recovering his powers. To ensure that future generations could defeat him, Wonder expended

Marissa stood up and followed Adrian to the main hall. When they reached the legate statues, Adrian stared at them for a long time.He then smiled and said, "Marissa, maybe Sean was right. This shrine may indeed be where hope begins. There are others besides us who are silently guarding this world. Sean did an excellent job."Marissa did not understand what Adrian was saying.He released Marissa and gazed at the statues. "According to the Seer's layout and my knowledge of mechanisms, the underground chamber here must’ve been built during the construction of this shrine. The mechanism to activate the chamber should be on the statue of the first legate, War Legate Enneagon."Adrian narrowed his eyes and continued, "Enneagon wears a silvery-white cloak with a golden flag on it. Let's see… If I were the Seer, I’d probably install the switch at…his head!" He jumped up and, from a higher vantage point, noticed eight finger-sized holes arranged on top of War Legate Enneagon's statue.

"This should be the third part," Adrian said. When he withdrew his hand, he noticed some blood on his fingers. He rubbed them together and murmured. "Blood, which means this is probably a balance system. Only by inserting liquid in sufficient weight, volume, and density will this part unlock. Since there's blood on this, Sean probably opened it using his blood."All right, I’ve located all three mechanisms. It's time to decipher them."Adrian stepped back a few paces. "Marissa, I'm going to need you to take a few steps back so that you don't get frightened."Marissa did not know what Adrian was up to but complied and stepped back two paces.Adrian leaped onto the statue of War Legate Enneagon. He had come across such a thing before, so he knew what he was doing. After examining the eight holes, he inserted a finger into one of them. With that, the sounds of chains rattling were heard coming from beneath the shrine as though something had been opened. Adrian smiled and jumped off
