Looking at the excited crowd below the stage, the people on the stage were at a loss for words.Everyone turned their gazes to Adrian, seemingly wanting to see his response in this situation.Unexpectedly, there was a sudden and intense explosion from a far distance. The sound was so abrupt that everyone in Summoner City felt like the entire city was trembling.All eyes turned toward the source of the shockwave, which happened to be the city's entrance. Everyone was captivated by what they saw."Damn, could it be..." Vardala immediately realized that something was amiss.Adrian also reacted promptly. They both looked toward the source and noticed numerous people rushing toward the city gate.Their sheer numbers and formidable momentum were beyond imagination.The onlookers were astonished as they witnessed the overwhelming force approaching."Oh no, enemies are attacking!""Who are these people? Could it be the dragon clan? Damn them!"The spirit summoners had been living pea
Adrian could kill one foe with a single slash, but he was overwhelmed by the sheer number of foes.The frenzied onslaught brought an unprecedented oppressive force, compelling Adrian to retreat into the defensive formation after engaging in combat for a while."Mr. Adrian, are you okay?"Vardala, the Dragon Prince, and others rushed up at this critical moment.Adrian shook his head and replied, "Don't worry. I'm fine. But these guys are indeed formidable!"Surveying the foes before him, Adrian noticed a group of peculiar-looking monsters. They had humanoid forms with limbs but were enveloped in disgusting slime.Despite their grotesque appearance, they moved swiftly, wielding various weapons like machetes, spears, steel pipes, and more. They seemingly utilized whatever they could find.As they moved, the slime on their bodies oozed everywhere. It possessed corrosive properties that emitted white smoke upon contact. Additionally, a foul stench permeated the air.Vardala's face t
This situation frightened them, prompting someone to shout, "Vardala, you gathered us here, and now we encounter such a situation. Shouldn't you say something?"The speaker was the chief of the Cliff Hind Tribe. With these words, many eyes turned toward Vardala.Vardala, in turn, looked at Adrian.Despite being the chief of the Burning Sky Tribe, Vardala acknowledged Adrian as his sworn brother. Naturally, he sought Adrian's opinion on the matter.After assessing the current situation, Adrian promptly made his judgment. "I think our top priority now is to unite. The more, the better. Strength in numbers is crucial in our current situation!"Upon hearing that, everyone looked at each other.Vardala and the others had no objections, but the chiefs seemed hesitant. However, as the monsters' attacks intensified, even some weaker tribes were on the brink of collapse.The chief of the Cliff Hind Tribe then declared, "Alright, we agree!"Surprisingly, they were the first to agree—the
The Cliff Hind chief was naturally furious, preparing to take action against Adrian. "Brat, you—"At that critical moment, Adrian shouted, using all his strength. A powerful force swept toward everyone, causing them to shiver involuntarily. Soon, they all fell silent.Adrian continued, "Are you gathered here to unite against the enemy or for internal struggles? If it's for internal disputes, then get out and face those monsters on your own!"His words were sharp, leaving no room for joking.At that moment, everyone was at a loss. Undoubtedly, none of them wanted to leave and face the terrifying monsters on their own.After some time, the monsters had surrounded them, appearing fierce and threatening. The pressure made their defensive formations seem on the verge of collapsing."Mr. Adrian, we shouldn't waste time arguing with them. We need to deal with these monsters quickly!" Vardala urge.Adrian's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the monsters. Then, he calmly said, "You're ri
Following that, they reluctantly said, "Fine. We'll trust you this time since you put it that way."Seeing their response, Adrian snorted. He knew that these people were like candles—only bright when lit. As such, he didn't bother arguing with them.Since that's the case, I have nothing more to say. Follow my orders and start acting!" he said, his tone stern.Vardala and the others were the first to charge forward.Vardala sped toward the group of monsters like a shadow in a swift motion.Upon witnessing someone charging at them, the monsters were momentarily taken aback, seemingly unable to comprehend that someone would dare to rush out.After a brief delay, the monsters quickly realized the danger and went mad, charging fiercely toward Vardala.Seeing the monsters' attack, Vardala remained unfazed. A sharp radiance appeared in his hand like a blade. Simultaneously, a beam of light flashed by. In an instant, he killed numerous monsters.Still, there were too many monsters. Var
"You guys don't just stand there. The third wave of attacks is coming up. It's your turn now!" Adrian looked toward the Cliff Hind chief.Instantly, the Cliff Hind chief understood what he meant."Don't worry, I won't be worse than them!"The Cliff Hind chief was spirited. Without saying a word, he rushed toward the distance.His mission was somewhat similar to Vardala's. There were just too many monsters in the area, and the group they had just eliminated was only one wave.This new batch of monsters, having witnessed many of their companions die at the hands of these spirit summoners and humans, were now furious. They charged fiercely toward the Cliff Hind chief, harboring a desire for revenge."Die!" the Cliff Hind chief cried upon seeing so many enemies charging at him.Meanwhile, the ground around him violently trembled. It was as if an earthquake had erupted.Countless sand granules and stones surged like waves toward the group of monsters.The monsters had no time to re
Seeing this, Adrian smiled and said, "I thought it was something more serious. It turns out it's just this trivial matter, huh?!""Mr. Adrian, don't laugh at me. Honestly, for us, this is indeed a rare victory! So, I am quite excited!" Vardala explained.Adrian didn't expect him to have such thoughts. Still, Adrian applauded. "Since that's the case, follow me in the future. There will be even greater achievements waiting for you!""Uh, well..."At that moment, other people hesitated, as if they wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words.Seeing their expressions, Adrian grinned. "What's the matter? Do you have something to say?"The Cliff Hind chief took the lead, coughed twice, and approached Adrian. "Uh, I apologize for my previous hostility toward you. Now, I would like to apologize for my recklessness!"Adrian found it somewhat surprising that he apologized.The other spirit summoner chiefs also showed similar expressions. It seemed that using absolute streng
Adrian didn't say much and just looked at them in astonishment.Unexpectedly, someone said, "Do you not believe it? It's okay. We can swear to the heavens! At least, the Cliff Hind Tribe will wholeheartedly submit to you!""The same goes for our Ashen Timber Tribe!""And us!"Shortly afterward, others joined in agreement one by one, appearing quite serious. After scanning the crowd, Adrian turned his attention to Vardala."Mr. Adrian, I support you. Although you are a human, your help to us is tremendous!" Vardala straightforwardly expressed his support."Good! Since you all think highly of me, I'll take this position temporarily." Adrian didn't make a fuss about it. However, he made it clear that it was just temporary. If someone more suitable appeared in the future, he would hand over the position.It didn't matter for the others because they wanted a formidable leader. Anyone could assume the role, and given the powerful foes they confronted, none felt self-assured enough to
