"Are you sure about this? You can’t possibly be my match." Pavana sneered."Whether I'm your match or not is not something you can determine. Now, accept your fate!"Adrian charged toward Pavana and swiftly arrived before the latter like a bolt of lightning. Pavana couldn't react in time and was hit."Damn it!" Pavana roared.He waved his arms, causing the surrounding air to be drawn toward him. Seeing Adrian about to reach him, Pavana let out a long howl. His aura surged, heading straight toward Adrian. However, at this critical moment, Adrian showed no fear. Facing the incoming attack, he remained calm.In the next second, a loud explosion erupted. The two forces clashed, creating a shocking sound. Dust billowed, temporarily obscuring the vision of the onlookers. Although the battle had not yet concluded, everyone stopped what they were doing to witness the outcome.When the dust settled, two figures appeared before them. One of them was Adrian, and the other was Pavana. Althou
Adrian quickly retreated, easily avoiding the incoming attack. However, he couldn't help but feel surprised. He hadn't expected something strange would appear from his defeated opponent.Although he hadn't come into contact with it, simply being near had signaled him to its ominous nature. Sensing the mysterious substance’s corrupt aura, a chill ran down his spine. He understood that whatever had come out of Pavana was not something benign.Vardala was astonished by the unfolding events. He looked at his brother in disbelief, exclaiming, "Pavana! Why would you do this?!""This is my backup plan. I decided to resort to this option if I couldn’t defeat you." Pavana laughed menacingly.Although he appeared battered, he was not defeated yet. The mysterious power contained in the black liquid infiltrated his body, causing peculiar changes."Prepare to witness my true strength!" Pavana roared.A pungent odor permeated the air. Onlookers were taken aback by the terrifying scene unfoldin
"Damn it! We could’ve defeated them, but this gas somehow strengthened them!" Adrian angrily exclaimed.He looked toward the others and noticed the perplexed expressions on their faces, realizing that they, too, were clueless about the situation. He sighed in frustration. If they didn’t know what it was, it meant they had no way of dealing with it.Just then, Vardala spoke up, "I think I know what this is.”All eyes turned to him. Vardala seemed puzzled just as much as them, so they were curious as to what insights he could provide."This is a mysterious evil force sealed beneath the sea," Vardala stated."What? Such a thing exists here?" Adrian was perplexed.The others bombarded Vardala with questions, wondering why they, as summoners, were unaware of such a force."I only heard about it by chance. My father briefly mentioned it to me once. I'm not entirely sure about the details," Vardala explained while scratching his head.The onlookers exchanged glances, clearly skeptical
Aquanic had already discovered these powers and were making use of them."This mysterious power is so powerful. We’re completely powerless.""That's right. There’s nothing we can do!""Look at them. They only used a bit of the power and are already so terrifying. If they fully harness this power, we’ll be wiped out.”Adrian’s group and the locals became increasingly worried.Yet, Theodore smiled mysteriously and said, "There’s no need to worry. Although this force is formidable, there are ways to deal with it."“How?”The people were surprised. If there were indeed such methods, they were eager to use them."It's the secret treasure Emperor Iravan sealed in this place," Theodore said.The revelation surprised everyone, and silence fell over the crowd. The locals understood that they would be forced to leave as the valley would inevitably be destroyed in the extraction process. Where would they live then?At this moment, a series of rumbling sounds echoed from outside the barr
Everyone was stunned. They did not want Adrian to take such risks."I admire your courage, Adrian, but understand that the place is filled with dangers. If you aren't careful, you will lose your life. Knowing this, will you still go?" Theodore asked."Don't worry. I've faced countless dangers in my life. It’ll be nothing to me," Adrian replied."If you insist, I have nothing more to say." Theodore sighed. He looked toward the deepest part of the valley and said, "I'll now tell you the secrets of this place. Whether you can come out unharmed depends on your fate.""No problem," Adrian replied firmly."Are you really going, sir?" Dragon Prince asked. "Of course. I'm the strongest person here, so it's only natural for me to go," Adrian replied, and everyone was speechless."Well, since you insist on going, be careful," Dragon Prince said.Atticus walked up to Adrian and said, "We'll hold the barrier. We won't let Aquanic in." "I'll leave it in your hands then," Adrian replied.
Adrian found himself standing in a huge ancient palace built of giant stone blocks. He could not shake the feeling that something was watching him from the shadows. However, he was not one to be easily intimidated.He ignored the hidden observer and strode confidently deeper into the palace. For him, the top priority was obtaining the treasure. As he ventured further, the peculiar sensation intensified. It felt as if he was delving into the lair of the mysterious presence. If his gut was right, he was in great danger.Adrian pondered whether he should uncover the identity of this mysterious presence. After all, not knowing where it is could be dangerous as it could attack him at any time. After making up his mind, Adrian steeled himself.‘I best prioritize finding out where this thing is!’ he thought.He took a deep breath, focusing his mental energy on identifying the mysterious entity. He had not paid much attention to it before. Upon closer observation, he realized that the enti
“On my left!"Adrian noticed something and rushed toward the left side. Simultaneously, he noticed a peculiar aura on his left that looked like a vortex. Although it was not obvious, no detail in the palace could escape Adrian's keen perception.The entity became aware that Adrian had figured out its location. In response, it made a quick move to create distance between them. However, Adrian was fast. He chased it down, leaving no room for the entity to escape.Adrian's formidable strength allowed him to adjust his speed to optimal levels during the chase, ensuring that the entity could not shake him off. Even though he could not determine if this was the actual location of the entity's main body, his intention was simple. He wanted to deplete the entity's energy as much as possible to create an advantage for himself in an eventual confrontation.The entity also seemed to have realized Adrian's strategy. It attempted to escape and simultaneously launched attacks at Adrian. However,
Adrian had no intention of concealing his purpose for being here. Since this summoner was here, it proved that he was familiar with this place. He did not care if the summoner was an ally or enemy. If he showed even the slightest of hostility, he would kill the summoner without any hesitation. Therefore, he stared at the summoner intently and was ready to act at any moment. "If you want Emperor Iravan's treasure, tell me who you are. Maybe I'll help you," the summoner said.Adrian found the stranger's response rather unexpected and became a little confused.Noticing Adrian's reaction, the summoner frowned. "What's the matter? I’m offering to help, and you're not happy?" Adrian said, "That's not it. I just want to know your identity and why I should trust you."The summoner responded sternly, "Hmph, if you don't trust me, then I have no reason to tell you anything." He was clearly bothered by Adrian's suspicion.Adrian fell silent for a moment. He wanted to learn about the treas
