The middle-aged man sneered at Adrian, his gaze filled with disdain. "Hahaha, boy, though you're powerful, the tens of thousands of soldiers behind you are nothing more than prey for us."I suggest you be wise and surrender. If you do, I might consider taking you under my wing."Adrian chuckled at the absurdity of the offer."Oh, really? Your proposal is intriguing," he said coolly. "But you are nothing more than ants, hardly worthy of standing by my side."With those words, he began walking forward.The soldiers were stunned.Adrian's calm demeanor felt almost surreal.The middle-aged man, leading the Primeria forces, mistook Adrian's approach for submission and broke into laughter."Hahaha! You're wise, boy. I admire people like you who know when to bow to reason. Indeed, make the right choice now, and you'll gain what others can only dream of."Following me will be the best decision of your life. The benefits and privileges enjoyed by the Primeria soldiers are beyond anythi
The man could never have imagined encountering someone at the Fusion Stage, yet Adrian stood before him, undeniably a figure of that caliber.Adrian, however, remained composed. Surveying the group with a faint smile, he asked, "So, how does it feel now? Surprised? Satisfied?"The onlookers' eyes widened in disbelief.One man couldn't hold back and exclaimed, "Sir, this guy is seeking death!"The Primeria elites fixed their murderous gazes on Adrian, their intent to tear him apart palpable.Despite their hostility, Adrian remained unfazed.Nearby, Tyler's concern was evident."Sir Adrian, be careful!" he urged, his voice tinged with worry.To Tyler and the others, Adrian was no ordinary individual. His presence had bolstered their collective strength, making him a beacon of hope and a symbol of their greatest fortune.Adrian glanced at his enemies dispassionately. With a casual wave of his hand, an invisible force erupted, and the space before him seemed to detonate.At that
The man shouted, "Bastard!"Even though Adrian was a Fusion Stage warrior, the sheer humiliation he inflicted was intolerable to his opponent."I'll kill you!" the man yelled, consumed by rage.Desperation etched into his every move, he began burning his own life force to amplify his power.Adrian chuckled. "Oh, you still have some fight in you? Not bad, not bad. At least it's a bit entertaining, though hardly impressive."As the words left his mouth, Adrian punched him again.The man scrambled to defend himself, but the blow landed squarely on his face, leaving it bruised and swollen.Adrian didn't stop. Moving with ghostly speed, he weaved through the dozen elite fighters surrounding him. One by one, screams erupted."Argh! Argh!"Some were struck in the face, others had their bodies shattered, limbs broken, or torsos smashed. The scene was unspeakably gruesome.The Primeria soldier looked on, utterly dumbfounded.Their once-mighty leader was being toyed with as though he
Adrian had trained these soldiers.At that moment, he gazed at them and spoke in a commanding voice. "Do you see that? This is the outcome I want. You don't need to utterly crush your enemies, but you must instill absolute terror in them. That shouldn't be too hard, right?"Adrian's resonant voice echoed in their ears, and excitement flickered in the soldiers' eyes as his words sank in.This expedition felt worthwhile. Adrian's overwhelming strength had ignited a hope they had never experienced before.In the past, morale had plummeted whenever they faced the Primeria soldiers. Each soldier was reputed to be worth ten of their own, a truth that had always weighed heavily on them.However, Adrian had demonstrated, with sheer power, that defeating these enemies was merely a matter of moments.While the Primeria soldiers' physical toughness was undeniable, Adrian's men now understood that their training had prepared them. Even without relying solely on brute strength, they could use
Upon hearing these words, the soldiers felt their blood surge with excitement. The prospect of enhancing their strength was the greatest motivation they could ask for.Adrian fixed his gaze on the distant horizon and commanded, "Let's move. Begin the hunt. The Second Prince should be somewhere deep within the Great Dragon Mountain."His instincts told him the heart of the mountain concealed the Second Prince's location. The presence of such a well-entrenched group suggested that something extraordinary was at stake.Without hesitation, Adrian led his men forward at an astonishing speed.Suddenly, deafening tremors echoed.Adrian's expression hardened as his eyes assessed the unfolding situation.The tremors clearly resulted from a violent clash between the Ciawales soldiers and the Primeria forces.Yet Adrian's focus remained elsewhere—on the performance of his own trained men.Were they truly as formidable as they appeared? Strength alone wasn't enough. Only results would reve
The situation left everyone stunned. The Primeria soldiers trembled in fear as the ferocity of the Ciawales soldiers shocked them beyond measure.The screams of agony sent chills down their spines. Adrian observed the chaos with calm detachment."Not bad," he remarked coolly.This outcome was exactly what he had anticipated.The ground quaked violently, as if an earthquake had struck.The battlefield was littered with corpses, and the Primeria soldiers either fled in panic or fell, slain where they stood."Sir Adrian, the enemy is completely eradicated," Tyler reported.Adrian smiled faintly. "If it's all handled, let's move forward."For Adrian, this level of destruction was expected, given the strength of his soldiers.The group advanced, eventually arriving at a distant forest. It appeared lush and green, yet unnervingly devoid of life."What's going on here?" Tyler asked, his face marked by surprise and confusion as he scanned the surroundings.Adrian's eyes narrowed wit
The terrifying nature of this place became clear: one wrong move could lead to certain death. Invisible forces seemed to drain life while creating a bizarre illusion of tranquility.In an instant, the forest before them began to shatter. The space around them and the towering trees crumbled uncontrollably."Sir Adrian, I fear we've entered a formation. I've heard there are forbidden zones within the Great Dragon Mountain—places ordinary people can never enter," Tyler said, his eyes filled with concern as he anxiously scanned the area.Adrian’s eyes sharpened, his gaze piercing. "Stay close and don’t stray. Follow me carefully."Having come this far, Adrian was determined to uncover what monsters and forces lay hidden here. He never backed down."Yes, Sir Adrian!" the soldiers replied in unison, their unwavering loyalty to Adrian evident.For them, his leadership was absolute.Wielding mysterious power, Adrian felt as if nothing could stand in his way. His eyes glowed with golden
"Sir Adrian! We're here to help!" Tyler shouted, noticing that Adrian seemed to be struggling slightly.Taking the lead, Tyler began channeling his energy to support him.The other soldiers followed suit, unleashing their own forces. All were at the Divine Stage, so their combined strength rivaled that of a formidable Fusion Stage warrior.Adrian surveyed the area and realized they were facing a portal, its faint yellow lights flickering within. The path ahead, destroyed but still discernible, seemed to guide them forward, almost beckoning them.Yet a single misstep could lead to a wormhole, resulting in certain death. No one wanted to face that.Fragments of space rained down, violently hammering Adrian's energy barrier. The force was immense, and it seemed as though the barrier would shatter under the relentless assault.However, the soldiers' combined power increased Adrian’s strength, making him feel somewhat more formidable.This unity was beneficial, and he sneered. "Hmph!
