The women all gathered around and said the same thing to Adrian.Gloria glanced at Adrian and said, "What do you think?""I think…let's all go together," Adrian said.As soon as the words fell, the women excitedly jumped up and down. This was their first time truly contributing to Navia.Ivy quickly clapped her hands and shouted, "Let's not waste any more time and get in! It's going to be really dangerous up ahead, but we're not afraid because we will succeed."The women promptly got into the parked car by the roadside, and so did Adrian, his car leading the others to Azure Creek.***Meanwhile, in present-day Windton, the ten powerful houses had been purged, allowing the city to return to normal. There were many people inside Blaze's hotel, constantly talking about Serpent's Haven as they ate.All of this happened while Blaze sat at the counter, quietly watching the news being broadcasted on television. Phoebe, who was pregnant, walked over and asked, "Is something on your min
Blaze cracked a heartfelt smile when he saw his comrades arriving from all directions. A total of twenty-one people, including himself, gathered at the outskirts of Windton, looking at each other. They all stood proud and walked in stride.Looking at these brothers in front of him, Blaze said with unwavering determination, "My brothers, we're all members of Wyvern Peak. We may have been in different squads before, but we all have the same mission to fulfill."We weren't able to do much during the chaos in Windton, so now that the battle warriors are trapped on the island, War Legate Draco needs us to meet up with him and save them. This battle at Serpent's Haven may be the final fight in our Wyvern Peak careers, so let's all head out there and fight to our heart's content before we retire!"A fighting spirit surged within Blaze as a heroic temperament emanated from his eyes. Upon hearing his words, the others clenched their fists and shouted, "It would be an honor even if we have to
As soon as Gale finished speaking, Crystal raised her head and looked at him and Titan."Please have a seat. Both of you," she said.Gale and Titan sat down."You four are the only aces I have right now. If all four of you leave Navia to go rescue the others at Serpent's Haven, Luposia, Shaydon, Excenom, Hangton, and the other countries in the outlands may attack us at the natural moat. What do you propose I do then? Who do you think would be able to face them?Crystal's words left Gale and Titan stunned."We still have three godkings, five dragon warriors, and ten dragon knights on standby. I'm sure they'd be able to defend the natural moat even if we're not around, "Gale said."Putting aside the fact they’ll be hard to mobilize to the natural moat, even if they could be, wouldn't that mean the places they were originally in charge of protecting would be left empty? I'd prefer not to mobilize them unless absolutely necessary," Crystal replied.The first elder nodded in agreemen
Everyone in the conference room seemed enlightened upon hearing this.Crystal had a sudden realization, and her expression showed she understood what was happening. She exclaimed in surprise, "Adrian intends to paradrop into Serpent's Haven during the heavy fog in two days?""That's right.” The first elder nodded. "I understand how Draco thinks, he never goes into a battle unprepared. More accurately, he's always prepared for something. He must've already realized something a long time ago and began coming up with countermeasures."Crystal took a deep breath and said, "Relying on the heavy fog to paradrop into Serpent's Haven is indeed a great idea. But will there really be fog in the early morning two days from now? Can we trust our weather forecast?""There's an eighty-five percent chance it'll work… It’d be more accurate to say that Draco already realized this, but that day will be his only chance.""Let's hope he'll pull off another miracle.”Crystal decided to place all of h
“With fiery ambition, we raise our swords high. Defying the Gods, we challenge the netherworld's might. As far as my eyes can see, the stars and moon are cast away. A mighty roar shakes the heavens and earth into disarray. With a single step, chaos reclaims its sway, and all creatures return to primordial clay.”This was a song released by Wyvern Peak during the Battle of Azure Creek. It instantly became the heart and soul of all the soldiers of Wyvern Peak. The mighty aspirations of Wyvern Peak were contained within the song—the heroic spirits daring to fight in heaven and earth.Adrian entered Azure Creek, accompanied by the resounding war song. It eventually faded when he arrived at Azure Creek University, where Wyvern Peak Azure Creek’s headquarters had been built behind the university.This was the largest base aside from Wyvern Hall in the outlands.***At that moment, news of War Legate Draco's arrival spread widely throughout Azure Creek University. Many students were stan
Soon, Serpent’s Haven located on the northwest of Isle 416 on Sant Sea showed up. The island did not belong to any outland organization, boosting a lush rainforest and its own unique ecosystem. There were all sorts of different wildlife living on the island.In view of Lucas and Steel’s capability, the troop would not be easily eliminated by the Eight Hollows despite being trapped in Serpent’s Haven. Hence, Adrian still had some time.***The map of Serpent’s Haven appeared on the screen.Adrian studied the enlarged map quietly and memorized the topography and all the routes of the island. At the same time, he observed the maritime space around Serpent’s Haven. Every part of the environment here could possibly increase his success rate in winning the battle.“You’re still studying it huh?”A woman’s voice came from behind Adrian, and the formally-dressed Mya walked into the room from the outside. She had come for him.Seeing Mya walk into the room, Adrian said, “Are you here to
Adrian furrowed his eyebrows and looked toward Mya. “The Eight Hollows and Dragon Peak are on the island. Do you think that it’s wise to bring along a burdensome person when we can hardly fend for ourselves?”“I won’t be a burden,” Lena said as she adjusted her glasses. “I know the patterns and habits of the flora and fauna on the island. Moreover, I’ve worked in a biology research lab for a very long time. I can perform basic surgeries and wound dressing and as such can act as the field doctor of your troop.”Adrian beckoned Lena to continue speaking.She added, “My participation will increase the success rate of the rescue. There are many highly venomous creatures living on the island such as the Blonde Serpent. The most crucial factor when it comes to jungle warfare is the topography. There’s a saying that favorable timing, geographical condition, and teamwork are the deciding factors of a winning battle. In that sense, I serve as your geographical condition.“I understand the p
Adrian raised his head ever so slightly and quietly looked at the woman standing before him upon hearing her unexpected remark.Lena said with a determined expression, “My father is Battle Warrior Lucas’ subordinate and is also on the island. He’s the only family I have left in this world. I can’t live without him.”Adrian was rather surprised. He had not expected Lena to have such a life experience. “What is your father’s name?” he asked.“His name is Cesar Williams, and his moniker is Rage.”Upon hearing that, Mya said, “I’m acquainted with Rage. He’s an important person working under Lucas. He was even involved in the Battle of Azure Creek.”Adrian thought about it and rejected Lena, saying, “Since your father is on the island, that’s all the more reason I can’t bring you along. I won’t be able to justify it to your father if something happens to you.”“My mother passed away when I was young and hence am very close with my father. He’s serving Wyvern Peak while I’m working at
