Max immediately got ready upon receiving his orders.Still confused, Ivy asked, "Don't you think it's bad to celebrate a victory you haven't won yet, Adrian? Are we really ending the mission when we haven't saved anyone yet?"Adrian remained silent.Meanwhile, Gloria smiled and said, "The battlefield is always changing, and there will be times when even the best-laid plans may change at any given moment. And every time there is change, there's a chance the entire battle may end."According to our original plan, it’d be extremely difficult for us to succeed if Bloody Rose chose to fight to the bitter end. However, Eternity has chosen to abandon the stronghold and leave, which means we can end all of this."Ivy and Eira exchanged looks, still confused about what was going on.Gloria smiled. "You'll understand in a moment."The two women shook their heads and stopped asking questions.***Meanwhile, on the third underground level of Bloody Rose, were people moving around through
The entire passage was hit by a series of earthquakes thanks to the continuous explosions from the surface. The team transporting the bertrandium picked up the pace as their transports were rushing to get to the other end of the passage.Aside from that, a group of women was following the team of killers toward the end of the passage in confusion. They were all nurtured by Bloody Rose to become killers, and their lives had been confined to this place a long time ago."Hurry up! Pick up the pace!" someone inside the passage yelled.The higher-ranking personnel within Bloody Rose got into their vehicles, while the killers, who were the lowest-ranking, were on foot and being urged to move faster. Of course, Eternity herself had gotten in a vehicle with a few of Bloody Rose’s directors."What the hell is up with Draco? There's no way Wyvern Peak would attack if they knew he was in here."One of the directors said, "I don't think he's up there. What we should focus on right now is gett
The other women wiped away their tears, feeling extremely helpless.Another woman asked, "Do you think War Legate Draco will kill us when he gets here? What's Eternity planning? Do you think she's going to force us to fight Wyvern Peak later?""I don't know." Helen shook her head. "But, in any case, we should all play it by ear no matter what happens later. Take care of yourselves and don't give up hope.” She tried to motivate them with her words.The women took a deep breath and continued running despite how exhausted they were. If they stop running, the bertrandium-loaded cargo trucks would run them over without hesitation.Bloody Rose was making a full retreat, while Eternity sat in her vehicle, still seeming as cold and prestigious as ever. She turned around to look at the darkness behind her and unconsciously clenched her fists. Gritting her teeth, she said, "I'm going to kill you for ruining my plans multiple times, War Legate Draco!”"Move!""Faster!"Bloody Rose continue
Helen, who was running through the secret passage, was carrying a small communication device on her. It made a beeping noise as a link was established. She had secretly snuck that communicator out with her when she left.Usually, Bloody Rose would only hand them these communicators when they went out on missions. Thus, these communicators were extremely important to Bloody Rose's headquarters.Helen frowned when she saw her communicator flashing, having no idea who was trying to contact her. When she turned around and saw that nobody was paying attention to her, she picked up the call."Hello?" Helen whispered.Meanwhile, at Wyvern Peak…The operator said, "We're connected, sir."Adrian walked toward him immediately and said, "Hello."When Helen heard the voice, she whispered, "Who are you?""I'm War Legate Draco of Wyvern Peak, and I'm speaking to you from Wyvern Peak. I'm here to save you all."Helen was instantly shocked when she heard this, and her expression changed drast
"Helen's going to get us out of here.""Keep a low profile and follow everything Helen tells you later."Thus, all of the women to be saved were informed of the plan without anyone else noticing. Every single one of them remained silent as they ran for the exit. Behind them, Eternity and a few of Bloody Rose's directors were in their vehicles.At that moment, Eternity said, "Inform the people on the boats to ready their weapons and kill anyone who dares to try and escape.""Don't worry, everything’s already prepared. None of them will try to escape. They wouldn't dare to try even if you gave them the chance."Eternity nodded.As they got closer and closer to the exit, they could see the lights coming from the boats docked at Seatum. There were about another two hundred meters to cover before they got to the exit."Tell everyone to get ready to run toward the mountains in the east as soon as they leave the passage, the faster the better. Someone will be there to pick us up!" Hele
The deafening blast crumbled the entire exit, trapping Eternity and the others within.A ball of flame rose up into the starry night sky.Helen and the others slowly came to a spot upon hearing the series of explosions. They turned around and saw that all six boats had been sunk while Eternity and the others were buried inside the secret passage.At that moment, all of them felt their bodies tremble uncontrollably as their vision blurred.'We're free!'Never in their lives had they ever dreamt of the day when they would regain their freedoms."Helen, is Eternity really dead? We've made it out… We've made it out!" A woman standing next to Helen was unable to contain her excitement.Helen pursed her lips, her eyes moist with tears. However, she did not dare linger for too long and waved. "Sisters, get to the mountains. We can’t stay in case something else happens.""Got it!"The women excitedly ran toward the mountains.In less than ten minutes after Helen and her sisters enter
Adrian took a short nap after that.It was already two in the afternoon by the time he woke up.Adrian walked out of his room and saw a lot of people all over Wyvern Peak. Many of them were gathered outside the main hall, with Gloria and Mya making arrangements for them.When Gloria spotted him walking out, she smiled. “You’re up."Adrian nodded.At that moment, outside the main hall, Helen led more than twenty thousand of her sisters from Bloody Rose to stand outside in an orderly fashion. When Adrian walked out, their gazes all turned to him. Immediately after, with Helen taking the lead, they all got down on one knee to thank Adrian for saving their lives."On your feet, all of you," Adrian commanded.The women got up, and Helen walked toward him."Thank you for saving us, War Legate Draco. Thank you for saving us from that prison. We will never be able to repay you for this.""No need to thank me. There's nothing worth thanking. Nevertheless, I'd like to congratulate you a
Just as Helen and the others were about to leave, Adrian suddenly thought of something and said, "Hold on. There's one last thing you all need to do before you leave!"Helen and the others were curious at first, but they quickly realized what it was.'Eternity!'After last night's incident, she had most definitely been arrested and was under Wyvern Peak's control. Finally, the vicious woman was about to get her just desserts.Mya said, "We've captured Eternity alive and will bring her here in a moment. It's up to you all what happens to her next."She then took off, while Adrian brought the women to Wyvern Peak's main hall.The hall was extremely glorious, with a throne fashioned into a shape of a dragon located on a raised platform. That was the throne for Wyvern Peak's legates. However, since Adrian was no longer the acting legate, that throne was no longer his according to the rules.Gale had someone place a chair at the base of the platform holding the throne for Adrian to s
