Chapter 1545
Before Adrian could answer, Cian explained, "War Legate Draco entered the palace to search for us. We would’ve been dead a long time ago if not for him.”“We’re really sorry for all the trouble, sir.” Adrian nodded. "All right, now's not the time for this. We have to get to the Celestial Lake as soon as possible."Rozi turned around and gestured. "Follow me. There's a stairs up ahead that’ll lead us directly to the lake." She led them toward a corner of the canyon. Oliver said, "I never thought a place like this could ever exist. Those drawings on the walls and the pillars back at the palace, they were telling us a story."Adrian was astonished by Oliver's analytical skills. Oliver was no ordinary engineer. "Go ahead and tell me what you think," Adrian said. Oliver nodded. "Something happened in our world thousands of years ago. Humans waged a war against a terrifying and powerful existence. It caused more than half of our population to be wiped out. What surprised me is how n

Oliver asked, "Is that all true, sir? Does the Creator really exist?"Adrian replied, "It's still too early to say what the Creator is, but one thing is for certain. He can decide our fates and can bring catastrophe to our world. He's the one who caused the meteorites to fall on Isle 416, something that has affected our world for thousands of years. He's also the one who caused the disappearance of the Uduma Desert.“The Creator has had his eyes on us for the longest time, and the war depicted in the drawings may happen again. Which is why we have to be ready.”Everyone was shocked. They never expected there to be an existence that could control their lives. And this particular existence was capable of erasing their world whenever he wanted. Just the thought of this was terrifying. Rozi suddenly stopped in her tracks and said, "We're here. This is the Utopia Stairwell. Follow the stairs and we'll reach the top of the mountain where the Celestial Lake is located."Everyone stopped
Chapter 1547
Rozi remained silent, agreeing that even Wonder may not have known how to defeat the Creator. Wonder created this world to tell future generations about the previous war, hoping they would be able to prepare themselves better. Although Wonder's understanding of the Creator may have been scarce, he at least knew the Creator’s weaknesses. Adrian just had to play everything by ear. ***The group went up the stairs for more than an hour, taking a short break halfway up before pushing on. The top of the mountain came within sight after they got through the thick mist.About half an hour later, they finally arrived at the mountaintop. Everyone gasped for air when they arrived and laid down to rest. Adrian did not stop as he observed his surroundings together with Rozi. There was a stone platform with a large monument built on top of it with the words "Apex Obelisk" engraved on it. Beneath the platform was a stream of water so clear you could see all the way to the bottom. Rozi poin

It was hard for others to understand how a world could be created, but Adrian could believe this after having experienced it himself."I'm sure you have your basis for thinking that, Adrian. I thought of that too but couldn't confirm it,” Rozi said.“This monument continuously provides energy to this world. If the monument disappears, this whole world will cease to exist. Thus, I believe there is an Apex Obelisk in our world too. If Wonder could create this world, then I'm sure ours was created by someone as well. Although Wonder’s world is very small, both worlds share similarities, which is the fact that they were created. That's how I arrived at the conclusion that there is something similar to this monument in our world as well," Adrian said. While the others were trying to digest everything he said, Rozi nodded and replied, "That's very possible. This world and our world are very similar, so we can be certain that the Creator is able to control our fates because he somehow gai

A person with a tainted soul would not survive the Celestial Lake. Rozi had managed to survive the lake in the past, which meant she had been accepted. However, Rozi was not a person of this era, but from over a thousand years ago. Adrian was of the opinion they needed to resolve this through the power of the modern generation. The lake's water was extremely clear, yet mysterious powers lay within. "I think my soul's pure enough. Wait here. Don't do anything after I've gone in." Adrian took a deep breath and prepared himself to enter the lake. Cian and the others watched anxiously, unsure of what would happen next. They knew based on what they heard from Rozi that the Celestial Lake could be fatal.Rozi said flatly, "Be careful. Don’t push yourself too hard."Adrian nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going in now." He jumped into the lake. Surprisingly, no ripples spread out when he jumped in. It was as if he had not jumped into a lake, but a mirror. Yet, it was not a mirror.Adr
Chapter 1550
They were doing their best to survive, just like the drawings on the palace walls. 'Is this the future?' Adrian was dazed by what he saw, but it was not over yet.The finale started to play…Adrian saw himself. Drenched in blood, he looked dead as he lay on the ground at the top of a mountain that reached the clouds. Jerome, Remy, Sage, Sylvia, and Strider were on the mountain too, taking a final stand despite their severe injuries. When Jerome slashed his sword across the sky, the dark clouds dispersed, and peace returned to the world.Everything that was reset had been restored.At that moment, Adrian felt a force pulling his body. Slowly, he was pulled out of the lake."He's up!" Cian yelled in excitement. Adrian gasped for air the moment he got back to the surface. They ran over to help him up. "Are you all right, sir?"Adrian panted for a while before saying, "I'm okay."After a while, his breathing returned to normal and he got to his feet. Everyone gathered around h
Chapter 1551
The Apex Obelisk was more than thirty meters tall and the endless power contained within it was palpable.Adrian gazed at it and saw a glimmer of hope. He asked, "Have you been to the top of the monument, Rozi? Do you know what's up there?"The top of the Apex Obelisk was broad enough to house a few people. Wonder had surely left a way for others to retain their memories if he knew how everything would play out, so maybe there was something at the top of the monument. Meanwhile, Rozi was stunned. She had not thought of that before. She realized she had neglected a very important point."No, I’ve not been up there. I don't know what to expect at the top.""Excellent. The secret to everything might be up there. I'm going to go and take a look," Adrian said."Be careful, sir. We don't know what sort of dangers are up there. Don’t let your guard down," Oliver warned. “I won’t,” Adrian said, then asked Cian, "Do you have a rope?"Cian nodded and took out a rope and hook from his b

There were more than five hundred corpses lying about!"What's the matter?" Rozi asked. "I was mistaken. It's not just twenty corpses, but more than five hundred. They all died a long time ago too."Adrian's reply shocked everyone once more.Rozi asked, "How did they die?""I'm trying to find out right now.” Adrian carefully examined the corpses and found they all had one thing in common. Though the degree of their decomposition varied, it was clear all of them had one burnt arm. Their burned arms were charred black, and some of the newer corpses even had burn blisters on them. They had either been electrocuted or burned with something extremely hot. "All of them have one burnt arm.""A burnt arm? What happened to them?"Everyone started discussing, but nobody could figure out what could have caused the burns. Rozi then asked, "Are you sure about that?" Adrian nodded. "I'm sure. They all have the same injuries. They must’ve grabbed something and then died. The rest of t
