Chapter 2871
Alfie sighed. They had sought Adrian out because they thought he looked tough and capable. They wanted to ask him for help in dealing with a few individuals in the adjacent cabin. Afterwards, they would give Adrian some compensation.However, they did not expect him to see through their intentions and expose their biggest weakness. With things now revealed, whether they could walk off this ship alive became questionable."These spirit crystals are for my cousin," Alfie said solemnly."Your cousin?" Adrian asked."That's right. My cousin is a lieutenant in the frontier force of Silverboa," Alfie replied proudly, "He mentioned that with the war at a critical stage and the battlefield so distant from Silverboa, logistics were a bit strained. He requested us to deliver something to him.""Even if logistics are lacking, it's not something a lieutenant should worry about. Your explanation doesn't convince me," Adrian said as he drew the Divine Frost Slayer Blade. The air temperature dro

"Okay, okay! We stole them from the Allastons of Southbay," one of them hastily spoke up."The Allastons of Southbay?"Adrian had heard of the large Allaston family living near Helionia. In recent years, they had prospered in business and had significant influence in the southern territories."They secretly excavated their crystal mine and colluded with Fergus City. They were nearly killed when they reported them!" Alfie said as he turned to glare at his companions. "We infiltrated their mine and stole some spirit crystals. It wasn't a large quantity, so they wouldn't notice. And even if they did, they wouldn't dare to make a fuss.”"You guys are quite daring." Adrian chuckled. He then put away his sword and lay back on his bed.Since they were not smuggling the crystals to Obscura, they did not violate his principles. Therefore, none of these five needed to die."Sir, you won't expose us, right?" Alfie asked while the other companions gathered around Adrian and looked at him ner

As there were still two days before they reached shore, Adrian felt bored and decided to have some fun. The only way to have fun on the lower deck was probably drinking and fighting. It seemed like the other party had the same idea, so they had been persistently causing trouble for Alfie and the others these past few days.The five men walked out of the cabin, and some whispered to Adrian, "This might sound a little over the top, but please don't use your sword even if things escalate. It won't look good if things get out of hand.""Don't worry, I'll only need my fists," Adrian said.Alfie and the others became speechless. Alfie turned around and said, "Don't kill anyone either! It will only make things worse.”Adrian chuckled and nodded. He could not comprehend why they reacted so strongly to what was just a joke.As they walked along, Adrian noted that the lower deck was far from satisfactory. The noise from the boiler room and the crashing waves was deafening, and the air was t

Crack!Before the man could finish his sentence, Adrian grabbed the man’s hand. "Don't move or the damage to his fingers will be irreparable!" he warned the remaining three men.Alfie’s group went wide-eyed from shock. They had only felt a gust of wind on their faces, and before they knew it, Adrian was grabbing the burly man by the hand. "Ah! Stop! Please stop!" the burly man shouted as his eyes brimmed with tears.Adrian's fingers looked slender and unassuming, but the force he exerted was far from normal. The burly man already realized that Adrian must be an immortal, and his strength was far superior to his.Although the burly man became a level seven Grandmaster two years ago, his breakthrough was entirely accidental and kept secret from everyone. Hence, his strength did not truly match his level, and any level seven Grandmaster could defeat him.Hearing the burly man shouting in pain, his companions dared not make a move. People from other cabins along the corridor had ope

"We didn't dare venture into the tomb because there was something strange in the tunnel we explored," Brutus said in a trembling voice as he nursed his fingers.Adrian fell into contemplation. The tomb described by Brutus matched the one he had discovered the Divine Frost Slayer Sword in. It was right that they decided not to venture inside because what lay in the depths of the tunnel was terrifying. After traversing the tunnel, they would enter a very peculiar place. It was similar to their environment, and everything felt so real. Adrian had not brought many people inside, and only a few of them had made it out alive.After they came out of the tomb, they all recounted their experience inside the tunnel. Most of them entered a similar illusionary realm, but their experiences were different. Some encountered attacks from various monsters but managed to escape. Despite being injured in that place, they found no wounds on their body after coming out. This led Adrian to suspect that

Adrian spoke calmly, but the men wordlessly glanced at each other. They felt that Adrian was trying to fool them.The well-preserved items were all ancient antiques from a distant historical era. They wanted to sell them in Obscura because they weren't satisfied with the prices they could get in Silverboa. In total, there were thirteen items, and they felt they should fetch at least one hundred million spirit crystals.And anyone who could produce one hundred million spirit crystals wouldn't possibly be traveling in the lower-class cabins like they were. In their opinion, other than themselves who hid their identities for convenience, those traveling in the lower-class cabins were all poor.Seeing that they didn't believe him, Adrian took out a black pouch from his pocket."How… How much do you have?" they asked."One hundred million!" Adrian threw the pouch to Brutus.Alfie’s group was stunned. They looked at Adrian in astonishment, unable to believe what they were seeing.Adri
Chapter 2877
A few minutes later, the person tasked with inspecting the pouch returned. Although the cabin's air circulation wasn't great and it felt a bit stuffy, it shouldn't make one sweat profusely given the weather. But the person who returned was not only sweating; his entire body was drenched in a cold sweat. His hands that were holding onto the pouch revealed bulging veins.As he entered, he kept looking around, afraid that someone would snatch the pouch from his hands. He lowered his voice, excitedly saying, "There… There really is one hundred million inside here!"Brutus turned to look at Adrian, nodding and saying, "I'll take you to see the goods." He quickly put away the pouch into his pocket and looked warily at Alfie and the others.Adrian followed Brutus to the latter’s room. Alfie and the others followed along. They were very curious about what Adrian was willing to spend one hundred million to buy.After arriving at Brutus' cabin, they saw that there were two people guarding th
Chapter 2878
Brutus looked at Alfie’s group happily. These guys weren't jinxes; they were lucky stars! Compared to the jubilant atmosphere on Brutus’ side, Alfie’s group seemed listless. They had hired Adrian to teach Brutus’ group a lesson. Their biggest concern was whether Adrian could rough them up, but Adrian proved that he could.However, what happened next exceeded their expectations. Adrian struck a deal with Brutus' group, allowing the latter to make a big profit. Adrian truly was a gold mine. He offered one hundred million crystals without even batting an eye. Alfie’s group found it unbelievable that such a person would come down to the lower deck."Sir, were you already on the ship when we set sail?" a person beside Alfie asked.Adrian replied, "I came up last night.""Did the ship dock last night?""What nonsense! The ship departed from Cras Island and is on a one-way trip to Central Island. It doesn’t pass any islands in between."Alfie trembled, looking at Adrian with suspicion
