Chapter 4: More Noble than Aristocrats

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“What happened?!”

Adams watched his companion die with indignance. He desperately wanted to know what had happened over the past few days.

Unfortunately, this person’s injuries were too severe, and there was no hope of saving him. Right now, if he wanted to get things straight, he could only rely on Vivian, the aristocratic lady who was still fighting!

Adams took out a lightning magic scroll and quickly rushed towards the platform.

On the stone plateau, Vivian was wielding a shortsword forged from high-quality steel as she engaged in battle with a swarm of Bladed Praying Mantises. She was like a fluttering butterfly as she dodged the rain of attacks. There were already many wounds on her body, but fortunately, none of them were fatal.

However, as blood flowed out, Vivian’s stamina gradually decreased, and the speed at which she was dodging the attacks also became slower. A few more wounds immediately appeared on her body.

Vivian gritted her teeth and held on. Step by step, she retreated to the edge of the cliff plateau. Her left hand was still on the bag at her waist, as if she didn’t intend to use the trump card she had brought with her until the very last moment.

Finally, under the attack of a Bladed Praying Mantis, Vivian sank down to the ground at the edge of the plateau, and the short sword in her hand fell into the abyss.

Faced with the swarm of Zergs, Vivian finally made up her mind. She took out a muddy scroll made of yellow jade at her waist, and crushed it with all her might.


A ray of yellow light suddenly flared and rapidly expanded into a semi-circular light barrier that enveloped Vivian.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The razor-sharp forelegs of the incoming Bladed Praying Mantis were completely cut off by the light barrier. As more and more mantises gathered in front of the light barrier, no matter how hard they attacked, they were unable to break through the light barrier’s defense, let alone injure Vivian in the slightest.

Looking at the group of praying mantises that were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, Vivian couldn’t help but comment, “You b*stards, this is a Defense Magic Scroll left behind by my grandfather. How can the Kevin Family’s treasure be broken by the likes of you? Even if it’s a higher-level Zerg, don’t bother thinking about breaking through the defense set up by this C-rank spell!”

Boom!

Just as Vivian’s voice fell, a blinding blue light enveloped the entire stone plateau, and also blinded Vivan’s sight.

When her vision was restored, Vivian rubbed her stinging eyes and was surprised to find that all the praying mantises on the plateau had disappeared, leaving behind only a thick layer of black ash.

At the same time, the light barrier around Vivian also disappeared.

“Where did Grandpa’s defensive spell go?” Vivian wondered as her eyes widened in shock.

“We meet again, Miss Vivian!” Adams greeted indifferently as he stepped onto the plateau.

Vivian looked at Adams in a daze and asked in confusion, “Who are you? Were you the one who killed all the Bladed Praying Mantises?”

“Me? My name is Adams. I’m one of the cannon fodders that your cousin Anthony sent out to die. It’s normal that you don’t remember me!”

Adams looked at Vivian with displeasure, and said, “As for those bugs, they were indeed destroyed by me. I seem to have also destroyed your magic scroll. I’m really sorry!”

When Vivian heard this, the shock in her eyes could not be any greater. The Kevin Family’s defensive magic scroll is the strongest defence in the city, and no one has ever been able to destroy it.

But this man did it in the blink of an eye!

This means that he alone has the strength to go against the entire Kevin Family!

It was not until Adams approached that Vivian stood up with a hand over her wound. Lowering her eyes as she didn’t dare to look directly at Adams, she had completely lost the imposing manner of an aristocratic lady. With an ashamed expression, she uttered, “Cousin’s actions are indeed inappropriate. If he has done anything that upset you, please forgive him on account of the Wester Family.”

Seeing Vivian’s humble attitude, Adams nodded and asked, “I fell off the cliff when I first arrived here. Tell me what has happened these past few days!”

Vivian nodded slightly, not daring to disobey Adams’ request in the slightest. She recounted, “After we descended from the teleportation array, we suffered heavy losses. Later on, we finally managed to repel the swarm of Blade Praying Mantises. Cousin led everyone to build a camp on the mountaintop, and we finally had a safe stronghold.

“After that, Cousin ordered the others to split into teams to gather supplies outside the camp every day. However, the number of people who could make it back decreased. I didn’t agree with him and quarreled with him. Then, I led a team out to rescue the survivors. In the end, I nearly died here!”

Seeing the sincerity in Vivian’s words, Adams realized that this pair of aristocratic siblings were not the same. Vivian was still considered a responsible person. The one who made people’s blood boil was Anthony, who had been hypocritical right from the beginning.

Adams changed his attitude and took the initiative to speak to Vivian, “I see. If you still want to rescue those people dispersed outside, I can help you!” Adams changed his attitude and took the initiative to speak to Vivian.

Hearing this, Vivian raised her head excitedly and said, “Really? That’s great!”

Adams raised his head to look around, only to discover an extremely dazzling red marker not too far away. He then turned to Vivian and said, “I’ll bring you to a safe place to tend to your wounds first, before setting off together!”

Vivian nodded with a smile. She was extremely honored to be able to go together with such a powerful being like Adams. At the same time, she had a little selfish motive, which was to see Adams’ power again.

If he really was a super strong powerhouse, Vivian had to help her family become friends with him as soon as possible.

Just as Vivian was lost in thought, Adams’ voice rang out again, “Oh that’s right! I saw you lose your short sword just now and I destroyed your magic scroll. Consider this compensation!”


When Vivian snapped out of it, she saw a crystal-like object flying towards her, and she subconsciously reached out to catch it.

When she saw the item in her hand, she sank to the ground in shock.

“This… This is a magic scroll made from magic crystals! This is a high-grade military resource!” Vivian exclaimed as she held a lightning magic scroll in her hands. She looked at Adams with reverence.

In this era where resources were extremely scarce, there was a strict distribution system for all the resources of the human race. Even the Kevin Family, which ruled over an area, could only use a B-grade material, Yellow Jade, to create magic scrolls.

To add on, the difference in materials would directly affect the power of the magic scroll!

The human race’s military was a more noble existence than the aristocrats. High-purity spell crystals were rare S-grade material that was only available to the military!

Nervously looking at the bewildered Adams, Vivian felt a turbulent storm raging in her heart.

Can this extraordinary man possibly be the son of some military big shot?

Adams turned around to look at the dazed Vivian, and shook his head with a resigned expression. He then stepped forward to help Vivian up and said, “Don’t force yourself if your injuries are too severe. Let’s hurry up and get going!”

Flattered by Adams’s support, Vivian nodded and agreed, “Okay.” She carefully followed him up the hill.
