"Very well. Follow me." The person turned around and walked toward Apollo Citadel. Rayhan was at a loss, but the others shouted, "Why are you just standing there? Come along!""Okay!" Rayhan hurriedly got up and followed closely behind.Nobody noticed that several people were watching everything from a dark corner. The leader of the group was none other than Adrian."This is brilliant!" Quintin gave a thumbs up in admiration.Cormac, with his arms crossed, wondered aloud, "Indeed. Now that Rayhan has infiltrated the enemy camp, all we have to do is wait for him to relay info.""The astral daemons spared no effort to defend Apollo Citadel as it’s an important checkpoint. Doing this is a foolproof plan," Adrian said indifferently.His words were not wrong. The current plan was to come up with a comprehensive strategy after fully understanding Apollo Citadel’s layout. Launching an attack on the place was possible for Silverboa City with its current strength, but the price to be pa
Early one morning, Dominik received a message from Apollo Citadel requesting 30 million spirit crystals. Rivier’s assets amounted to just over 50 million spirit crystals. If they were to take out 30 million all at once, Rivier would instantly be in dire straits. If enemies attacked, they would be defenseless."This is utter nonsense!” Dominik cursed. One of his subordinates then reported, "Sir, there's someone outside requesting an audience." Dominik waved dismissively. "I'm busy and won't entertain anyone!" But the subordinate continued, "This person claims he can help us solve our current difficulties."Intrigued, Dominik looked up. "Oh?" As the ruler of a city, he was responsible for all its citizens. If someone could truly assist him, he wouldn't easily let go of this opportunity."Let him in. I want to see what help he can offer me," Dominik said solemnly.The subordinate left to convey the order and soon returned with someone in tow. "Nice to meet you, Commander Dom
A mysterious smile remained on Adrian's face throughout the exchange. This smile seemed to be engraved on his face, making Dominik feel uneasy. It felt as if Adrian could read his every secret while he found Adrian shrouded in a mysterious unknown fog. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't discern Adrian's true intentions.Sure enough, Adrian's words were spot on. Dominik was indeed intrigued, which was why he refrained from attacking Adrian."So, what do you want me to do?" Dominik finally asked through clenched teeth.Adrian beamed even wider, indicating that he had been waiting for these words. "As I mentioned, I need you to attack Apollo Citadel when I call on you," he repeated.But Dominik wasn't a fool. He knew that with Rivier’s capabilities, they couldn't possibly launch an attack on Apollo Citadel and succeed. A direct confrontation would be akin to hitting a rock with an egg.Dominik looked at Adrian warily. "You want me to attack Apollo Citadel while Silverboa reaps
Rayhan was speechless. The black-clothed man who had led him into Apollo Citadel then appeared."Just in time. Please take your subordinates away. I can't enjoy my meal with them crowding around me," Rayhan said to the man.But the man also kept quiet and approached Rayhan, observing him. In Rayhan's eyes, this person looked like a calm ancient well, impossible to fathom."It’s surprising that you can still eat in this situation," the man finally said in a hoarse voice reminiscent of an old and squeaky bellows.Rayhan smiled, putting down the chicken drumstick in his hand. "What? Am I supposed to be distressed and unable to eat for you to be satisfied?""Not at all. Seeing you like this, I'm actually quite envious. I am quite different from you. There are simply too many things that demand my attention every day. For example, battling against Silverboa." The man shook his head.At the mention of Silverboa, the man’s voice went up sharply, and Rayhan could feel a piercing edge in
Returning to the camp, Adrian found everyone curious about where he had gone during the day. However, he remained tight-lipped. And since he was unwilling to speak, others naturally refrained from questioning him.However, Cormac and Maxwell were deeply concerned about Rayhan. They feared for his life. Adrian assured them, guaranteeing that nothing would happen. Seeing Adrian's confidence, the two eased up.As time passed, night fell. When darkness enveloped the land, Adrian once again ascended the city wall. Suddenly, he noticed a brilliant light far away in the night sky."It's time." His expression became solemn.With a command, the Silverboa army surged toward Apollo Citadel. As the army approached, Apollo Citadel inadvertently discovered the incoming enemy. Alarms sounded, cutting through the silence of the night. The previously dark Apollo Citadel lit up with numerous lights. The city gates swung open and countless soldiers poured out. The two armies faced each other, and the
While that was what he intended to do, what happened next left him shocked. Adrian had no openings whatsoever.‘This person has no openings! How is this possible?’ The man was dumbfounded, and his eyes widened like copper bells.While engaged in combat, Adrian coldly taunted, "Osseus Cruz, Lord of Apollo Citadel, it seems you're nothing special. You’re one of the legendary Twelve Famous War Generals, the legendary Devil Commander, yet you’re so weak!""Damn it..." Osseus was furious. He had more powerful techniques, but due to the sudden and aggressive attack, he was caught off guard.Adrian had no intention of letting Osseus catch his breath, and his attacks became more intense. It was akin to a violent storm.Facing such a terrifying assault, Osseus knew that he couldn't remain suppressed like this. He had to find a way to counterattack. His thoughts raced, and suddenly, he got an idea."Rrrraarrrgh!"With a loud shout, powerful energy radiated in all directions from Osseus as
He then suddenly pounced at Adrian. Faced with this attack, Adrian refused to back down. "Well done!" Adrian laughed.He knew that Osseus’ strength had been enhanced, but at the same time, he also knew he couldn't retreat now. Moreover, he didn't believe he would lose to this enraged Osseus.Osseus' movements were extremely agile, easily evading an attack from Adrian. Then, with a sudden grab, he fiercely struck toward Adrian's direction. The impact was fast and fierce, but Adrian didn't fear it. He placed the Divine Frost Slayer Blade before him.Clang!It was a successful parry, but Adrian found that Osseus' strength had increased countless times. Although he managed to block the attack, Osseus was like a mountain pressing down on him. Even someone like Adrian felt quite pressured. As Osseus' power grew, Adrian was almost forced to his knees."Damn it..." Realizing this, Adrian's heart sank.This was just a momentary increase in Osseus' combat power, but Adrian was finding it
"Well done!" Adrian showed no fear, and his sword erupted with terrifying sharpness in his frenzied onslaught.Despite his aggressive attacks, Osseus couldn't gain the slightest advantage. In contrast, his seemingly powerful attacks were gradually suppressed over time."How is this possible?" Osseus realized this and felt incredibly shocked.To deal with Adrian, Osseus unleashed his most powerful techniques. However, they proved utterly useless against Adrian. Not only that, but Adrian also appeared to be effortlessly dealing with him.‘Is this kid some sort of freak?’ Osseus refused to believe that Adrian was this powerful, but he had no other option. Adrian's strength was there for all to see, and no matter how hard Osseus tried, it was futile."I don't have time to waste on you. Just die already!" Adrian shouted.The Divine Frost Slayer Blade and Hellblade simultaneously descended. Under this overwhelming onslaught, Osseus' arms were cleanly severed, and blood gushed out. Howe
