The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 672

Just as Blade was about to lead a few men down to the hidden room, a silhouette rushed out from within.

“Be careful” Adrian shouted.

The person down there was so quick that Blade could not react in time. Adrian quickly pulled Blade backward when he saw that the person was about to attack him. Then, the person came out of the hidden room, dressed in white and wearing a ponytail.

The person had no plans of staying there for much longer and quickly dismantled the soldiers and beat them unconscious,

“Bye–bye, my friends from Wyvern Peak”

The voice definitely belonged to a woman, and she instantly disappeared, followed by a cloud of smoke.

“Get down!” Adrian said.

Everyone’s first instinct upon hearing this was to lay low, while Adrian turned around to evade the incoming attack. An explosion happened right after, but nobody was hurt since the blast radius was small.

As the smoke subsided, Blade angrily yelled, “F*ck! It was a woman! How dare she get in our way! I’m going to make her pay for this!!!

“She had a book in her hands,” Mya said.

“Then it’s probably the one we’re looking for. You lot, come with me. We’re going after her!” Blade yelled.

However, Mya stopped Blade just as he was about to leave. “Don’t. You’re no match for her. Sir should go after her instead.”

Blade stopped and looked at Mya in confusion, but Mya merely shook her head at him.

“Sir, did you see that woman’s face? judging by how quickly she was moving, she’s definitely no ordinary human.”

Adrian replied, “It’s clear she’s more powerful than you all since none of you were able to react to her attacks. Mya’s right. You’ll only get brutally beaten if you try to pursue her.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I” Blade hesitated to speak.

Adrian patted his shoulder. “Take a few men down into the hidden room. I’ll pursue iser.”

After that, he dashed off and quickly disappeared into the night.

Meanwhile, Blade said nothing and led his men downstairs

At that moment, a beautiful figure was dashing through the night forest. She somersaulted over rocks and swerved past tree branches at high speed.

Upon closer look, the woman with the ponytail was in her late twenties. She was wearing a tightly–fitted white suit that exuded her beautiful and attractive figure. She was also holding a book in her hand.

The woman was celebrating how she was able to get to the book earlier than Wyvern Peak and was gleefully smiling as she ran. However, before she got out of the forest, she noticed a man standing atop the rock in front of her.

The man was dressed in a black battle suit with a mask covering his face. He had his back facing her as he looked into the

distance

The woman immediately stopped and dared not take

ther step forward. She took a deep breath and drew the dagger she had holstered at her waist and said, “Who goes there? Identify yourself!”

The woman was in a defensive stance as she spoke, ready for whatever might happen.

Upon hearing this, the man standing atop the rock slowly turned around to look at her, causing the latter to be shocked the

moment she saw him.

“War Legate Draco? Damn… When did you get ahead of me? That’s right. The man standing on the rock was none other than Adrian.
