Adrian looked at him coldly and asked, "Still not going to talk? Fine. This is what you get for refusing to speak!"With that, Adrian picked up a sword from the ground, once wielded by one of the man's subordinates who Adrian had defeated.Holding the blade menacingly, Adrian approached the man. The steel gleamed dangerously.The man was visibly shocked. He gulped and asked, "What are you doing?"Adrian laughed and replied, "What do you think?"In one swift motion, Adrian swung the sword and severed the man's left arm. The speed was so swift that the man initially stared blankly at Adrian, taking a moment to realize the sharp, searing pain that shot through his body.Nearby, the other men were stunned into silence. None had expected Adrian to be so ruthless as to sever their leader's arm with a single stroke."You dared to cut off my arm?! Mr. Kayden will never let you get away with this! Just you wait!" the man screamed, his face contorted in agony.Adrian remained unfazed. "I

Adrian felt no remorse for people like him as they were not on his side.But despite the demise of the army’s leader, there were others still alive in the area. Adrian's gaze swept over them icily. They were thoroughly frightened, avoiding his eyes and appearing extremely fearful.Adrian chuckled coldly and said, “If any of you have something to tell me now, I welcome it. That might just earn you a reprieve. But if you remain silent..."As he spoke, he clenched his fists tightly. These people knew firsthand how strong Adrian was after the recent battle. They pleaded, "Sir, spare us! We'll tell you everything we know!"Adrian found a chair and placed it in front of them, sitting down. "Good, in that case, you'll each speak one by one. Remember, no hiding anything. Tell me everything you know."Under Adrian's stern gaze, the people dared not withhold anything. One by one, they spilled all the information they possessed. And from their accounts, he gleaned much information that was n

“We will be your followers. We can help with anything, from pouring tea to doing dirty work.""Yeah, you can't take on Kayden alone, right? We can help."The people were enthusiastic as they spoke.Adrian narrowed his eyes, their words triggering a thought. He had never considered establishing a power base here. Taking on Kayden alone would be daunting, especially since Adrian had decided to break away from Dragoria and rebuild his influence from scratch. Having followers by his side could indeed be advantageous.Despite this, Adrian replied, "Seems like you're not foolish. You know I'm going after Kayden. So, why are you willing to follow me? Do you think I'm naive?" His gaze intensified as he spoke. The men responded, "No, no, it's not like that.""Then what is it?" Adrian asked."You’ve already captured us, which means Kayden will never take us back. Even if we try to return, we'll meet a miserable end at his hands. So rather than suffering, it's better to stay with you and

Someone asked Adrian, "Sir, outposts are usually in the outskirts, far from major forces. Why is ours right next to Silverboa City?"Adrian looked puzzled and asked, "Why? Isn't being near the city a good thing? There's food and drink in plentiful supply, much better than being out in the wilderness, right?"The group responded, "It's convenient for travel, but if we encounter enemies, this place is too confined to maneuver."Adrian replied, "But that's exactly what I want. If enemies could easily find and attack us, that would be a problem."His words made a lot of sense. If enemies could easily locate them, Adrian would indeed be in big trouble, as he was hoping to use this time to develop his forces further.After hearing Adrian's explanation, everyone suddenly understood.Then, Adrian said to them, "Alright, I have something to do. You all stay here. If you need to procure anything, go ahead. I want to see some changes around here by the time I return.""Yes, sir," they repl

After ensuring that no one was around, Adrian immediately climbed over the fence and followed the iron ladder up. When he reached the second floor, he first saw a few guards standing there. These guards were no match for him and were easily eliminated.After dealing with them, Adrian observed the base’s interior through the skylight on the floor. From this vantage point, he could see the internal structure very clearly. Moreover, if he entered through this skylight, he would not be detected by the enemy. This realization greatly reduced his vigilance.Although infiltrating this place wasn't particularly difficult for someone of Adrian's skill level, he wasn't fond of carrying out infiltration missions as they required constant vigilance. However, the crude defensive measures in Jelzuc amused him. Such defenses were practically non-existent to him.Without hesitation, Adrian sneaked in. Despite not sensing any particularly tight defenses, he remained cautious. He needed to ensure a p

Adrian quickly searched the guards he had knocked out and soon found a key. As he unlocked the door, he asked, "Where’s Rhys? Have you seen him?"Expecting several responses, Adrian was puzzled when the captives looked at each other as if they had never seen Rhys. Something felt off.Soon, someone stood up and said, "Rhys was taken away by the Jelzucs. We don't know what happened to him." The person's tone revealed a sense of dejection as if deeply worried about Rhys.Adrian then said, "You all head out first then. I'll go rescue Rhys. Don't worry, I've already eliminated all the enemies that would’ve been in the way."With that, Adrian turned to leave. The captives wanted to say something, but he didn't wait to hear their words. As he disappeared, one of the captives glared at the person who had spoken and said, "I told you not to reveal Rhys' whereabouts. Now he's gone! How are we supposed to get out now?""Exactly, it's clear this person has a special relationship with Rhys. If

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!Adrian suddenly made his move, his speed astonishing. Although he had no weapons when he first infiltrated Jelzuc's headquarters, he had acquired a few along the way, including several darts taken from the enemies he had defeated.He flung the darts at the guards, targeting their throats with pinpoint accuracy. The guards barely had time to react before they were struck down. They didn't even have the chance to scream.With a few muffled thuds, the guards fell, effortlessly defeated.Adrian spat disdainfully, "Useless trash. You’re not worth my time."Defeating the enemies so easily didn't make Adrian proud as these guards were not particularly strong to begin with. Under his assault, they were completely helpless, and he quickly dispatched them all.Adrian went on to search their bodies but found no keys, which surprised him. "These guys are more cautious than I thought. They know better than to carry keys on them to prevent intruders from unlocking doors

Rhys, fortunately, was conscious. Seeing Adrian approaching, he gasped. "Mr. Adrian, how...how did you get here?""I'm here to rescue you," Adrian replied. "Don't say much now; we'll talk once we're out."Rhys, too weak for prolonged conversation, nodded weakly. "Okay..."Adrian quickly unlocked the chains binding him. Everything was going smoothly until an eerie occurrence transpired just as they were about to leave.They heard urgent footsteps approaching rapidly, and Adrian immediately realized it was the Jelzucs. He became alert, scanning the surroundings, and quickened his pace.But before they could escape, a group of people charged toward them, led by Malik and his men. Shockingly, those who were previously imprisoned with Rhys were now with them, standing resolutely by Malik's side.Adrian was initially stunned but quickly regained his composure. He laughed coldly. "I never imagined you’d betray Rhys. I regret rescuing you."One of the traitors retorted, "Don’t blame us.
