Rozi did not believe this as her sword still gleamed brightly. She swung it and said, "There's nothing wrong with my sword though.”"Let me have a look at it." Adrian took her sword. He just gently flicked it, and the sword broke into two pieces, stunning Rozi. "My sword!" she exclaimed. Adrian was speechless. He had barely used his strength, yet he managed to snap the sword into two. Without a proper weapon, killing dragons would be impossible."What happened?" he wondered."Look at my sword." Tyler waved his sword. "Any iron tool brought here can't be used."Rozi asked dumbfoundedly, "Then what weapons do you use for robbery?""Wooden clubs…" he said sheepishly, "Dragon hunting has since become a luxury. Where did you get your dragon bones?""He killed it." Rozi pointed at Adrian. "It only took him a minute.""What?! That's impossible!" Tyler shouted."Wanna get a taste?" Adrian asked coldly. He was not fond of Rozi’s cousin.Tyler quickly waved and said, "No, no. I trus
Adrian's face sank. They were not beggars, and the old man was crossing the line. If it were not for Pompilio, he would not have come here."We’re leaving, Bucky,” Adrian said."No! Please don't leave!" Pompilio pleaded, "Just give me a little time. I'm sure I can persuade him.""You can't," Adrian said, "The old man has high status and authority. You have no say here. We'll find someplace else."However, Pompilio refused to let Adrian go. He had seen Adrian's strength, and he was certain that only Adrian could help them. However, the old man was exceptionally stubborn."The sky is about to darken," Pompilio whispered, "The Riftflux will appear soon, and you're no match for them.""Why should I be afraid of them?" Adrian asked. He had figured out that strength was crucial in Wasteland while on his way here. Luckily, he was powerful. "It's none of your business if I’m a match for them or not."Bucky hesitated. Seeing that Pompilio could not do anything, he was crestfallen. Lookin
Adrian held his breath and punched out a few times. The rushing creatures were swiftly knocked away, and within a minute, there was silence. It was terrifying. Adrian estimated he had used eighty percent of his strength, expecting the creatures to be severely injured or killed. However, the lack of any sound from them was unsettling.Adrian stepped back into the cave. Upon seeing him, Rozi’s eyes went wide, her expression a mix of fear and unease.Bucky exclaimed, "Sir?! What happened to you? Why are you covered in blood?""Don't come near us!" Pompilio shouted, "You must’ve been devoured by the Riftfluxes. In less than half an hour, you'll become one of them."Even Andre panicked. He took out his Blossom Needles and said, "This is Riftflux Poison. I can use the needles to test it, but I'm not very good at this technique yet. If it hurts you, we can do it again."Adrian did not want to become Andre's lab rat. He rejected the idea and waved Andre away. He would rather rely on the
The other Riftfluxes wanted to flee. No one had ever dared to confront them as they usually were terrified when they saw them and locked themselves indoors. Even those powerful individuals who dared to resist them would eventually become one of them.Witnessing Adrian's fearlessness, they were scared. But Adrian was not going to let them go easily. He swiftly swung his torch and flew toward the group of Riftfluxes. Swoosh! Swoosh!The Riftfluxes were lit on fire. A few clever ones had approached the ground and hid under the weeds. They thought Adrian would not notice them, but Adrian ignited the grass too. The wind was strong, and the fire quickly spread. The Riftfluxes did not even have a chance to make a sound before they were reduced to ashes.Pompilio, standing at the cave entrance, never expected the Riftfluxes they feared so much to be no match for Adrian. He asked, "Are they all dead?""They should be." Adrian descended from the sky. "I've eliminated all the Riftfluxes tha
"I don’t wish to repeat myself." The man in black raised his whip and lashed out at Adrian. "I’m not the one who wants to kill you, so get out of my way."Someone wanted to kill him?Adrian was shocked. He had just arrived in Wasteland and had not even had the chance to offend anyone. If there had been any conflict, it must have been with Rozi’s cousin."Stop!" Adrian dodged and grabbed some sticks. "At least explain yourself, and besides, the carriage is mine. I won’t let you take it away."Swoosh! Swoosh!Adrian immediately swung the sticks at the man, and the momentum was so overwhelming that no one would be able to stop them. Upon impact, the man’s black hat was hit off his head.He turned out to be an old man with short hair. His face was exceptionally ugly, especially with his huge hooked nose, which looked intimidating."I do not know you," Adrian asserted."Tyler is my follower." The man said in a cold and indifferent tone as he swung his whip. "However, he failed to re
Adrian suddenly realized that Matteo gained immense influence and wealth through the Sol Pills, putting him on par with the Debonaire Syndicate. However, Debonaire City, being a remote small city, could not possibly possess so much power.The main source of Leeroy’s wealth likely came from the sales of these products made from dragon parts. Since many desired these products, it made for a highly profitable business."Are you affiliated with Mr. Leeroy?" Adrian asked."No." The man scoffed, and his large nose looked particularly ugly. "We’re just business partners. No one can control me." He lashed out his whip at Adrian again, exerting all his strength and not showing any more mercy to Adrian.Seeing this, Adrian raised his stick, and the whip entwined around it. The man in black was stunned for a moment, he had not expected Adrian to still possess the strength to resist. He tried to retract his whip, but his arms could not move. In the next second, a powerful force surged in his d
Pompilio was overwhelmed with fear. He had not expected Adrian to follow through on his words. Though his legs were in immense pain, he dared not scream. He endured the agony and pleaded, "Please, don’t kill me.""Give me a reason not to!" Adrian sneered. The only thing this fool deserved was death.Pompilio was horrified when he realized Adrian was not joking. Adrian slowly lifted his hand, seemingly not planning to give him any chance.With no way to escape, Pompilio shouted out of despair, "I know Abioye Zayn!""What?" Rozi, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly sat up and strode toward Pompilio. Her voice was shaky.Abioye Zayn was her father. It had been years since she last heard this name, and it had always been hidden deep in the bottom of her heart, cherished as her most precious possession.Pompilio was terrified. He had clearly poisoned them, thinking they would be helpless. But Rozi looked fine, even radiating a healthy blush on her cheeks. He could not help but hig
He immediately lowered his head and dared not look at Adrian again, fully aware of his inadequacies.Rozi frowned slightly as a trace of suspicion lingered deep in her chest. ‘If what Pompilio said is true, and Father has been captured by the Ocean Draking, then his Dragon Hunter Mace must still be in Wasteland.’She said shyly, "Adrian, I have some doubts, but I can’t confirm them. I don’t know if I should speak up.""Go ahead." Adrian replied dotingly, "Perhaps it can provide me with the direction to look in."Rozi blushed.Unfortunately, with Pompilio as a third wheel, she did not dare to act too coquettishly with Adrian. Instead, she suppressed the overflowing happiness and said softly, "My father has a Dragon Hunter Mace. If it’s sealed in ice, it’ll emit a strong energy and weaken all weapons.""Really?" Adrian was excited, but a hint of doubt crossed his mind. "If this weapon is so powerful, why wouldn’t your father keep it with him at all times?"Pompilio, eager to contr
