Chapter 378: Chapter 388: Utmost Persuasion

His words were serious and earnest, more so than ever before.

He hadn’t known the person Stella Sterling intended to confront was Miles Sanctus. If he had, he never would have said what he did earlier. Instead, he would have tried to dissuade her from the very beginning.

Anyone who could survive the apocalypse and become a renowned figure was no simple character.

He had never heard of Sanctyr Base, but the name Miles Sanctus was very familiar to him.

The man himself was incredibly powerful. By the time I had grown stronger, he had already become a regional powerhouse with countless underlings.

Most things didn’t even require him to act personally, but he had still heard stories of the man’s deeds.

Moreover, he also controlled a massive research base and held significant influence in the apocalypse.

Most importantly, this Miles Sanctus was different from Wyatt Xavier and Gordon Ford.

All three were major figures of the apocalypse, on a completely different level from an ordinary person like him.

Wyatt Xavier, for example, was approachable and often did good deeds, so he had a pretty good reputation among people like them.

Gordon Ford was a pure madman. But for all his madness, he wouldn’t bother you as long as you didn’t provoke him.

But Miles Sanctus was different. He was utterly ruthless. In the apocalypse, anyone who crossed him was just courting death.

Moreover, he had no regard for human life, and the things he did were truly inhuman.

And as his power grew, he became more and more unbridled in his actions. No one dared to cross him.

A person like that should have been a public enemy, yet in the apocalypse, many people actually supported someone like Miles Sanctus.

And because he was so powerful, plenty of people still followed him, even knowing he was cold-blooded and selfish.

There were also many people similar to Miles Sanctus, and they were incredibly supportive of Noon Sanctus.

’Back then, my friends and I avoided this man like the plague. We’d immediately hide just from hearing his name, terrified he might be nearby and we’d accidentally suffer his wrath.’

But now, this woman was telling him she was going to stir up trouble with that man—and she was heading straight for his main base to do it.

’If this were the past, I’d definitely be shouting, "Is Stella Sterling crazy? Has she completely lost her mind to be doing something like this?"’

’Is he someone we can afford to provoke?’

But even though he was terrified, he also understood that the Miles Sanctus of today wasn’t the same as the one from his time. He probably wasn’t that powerful yet.

Besides, this woman, Stella Sterling, was no simple character either. Her strange and uncanny power still made him wary, and he had no idea just how formidable she truly was.

That was the only reason he could remain rational and calmly explain the situation to Stella Sterling.

Otherwise, if he had heard about Stella Sterling’s insane idea back in the future, he would have bolted immediately without a second thought. He’d never have stuck around here.

After saying this, he worried his words might have displeased Stella Sterling.

So he quickly added, "Of course, you’re very powerful too. I’m not saying you aren’t. But right now, you’re all alone. As they say, two fists are no match for four hands, so you can’t act rashly!"

Now he was truly curious. How did someone like Stella Sterling end up at odds with Miles Sanctus?

It seemed their grudge was a deep one. Otherwise, with Stella Sterling’s laid-back personality, she probably wouldn’t have gone to so much trouble to specifically track down his main base just to cause him problems.

In the end, he thought about Miles Sanctus’s character, and then he thought about Stella Sterling’s.

Both were very capable, and both acted without restraint. When two people like that clashed, they would either be kindred spirits...

...or it would be like Mars crashing into Earth—the kind of conflict that would likely erupt at the slightest disagreement.

But he still truly hoped that, unless it was a matter of life and death, Stella Sterling wouldn’t make an enemy of someone like that.

"Hahaha!"

After hearing Andrew Shaw’s words, Stella Sterling didn’t get angry. There wasn’t much worry on her face either; instead, she burst out laughing.

Andrew Shaw stared at her and asked tentatively, "What do you think of my suggestion just now? I’m not kidding, you know. This Miles Sanctus is bad news. He’s ruthless, and if you fall into his hands, the outcome won’t be pretty."

"So, if there isn’t some life-or-death grudge between you two, there’s really no need to provoke him."

After saying this, he paused, thought for a moment, and added, "And even if there is a major grudge that must be settled, there’s no need to rush. You can plan it out slowly."

"All in all, you’ll be at a huge disadvantage facing him alone. You can make plans for the future, build up your own forces. I believe with your abilities, you’ll achieve great things. Then you can go head-to-head with him."

Andrew Shaw kept trying to persuade Stella Sterling. In the past, he wouldn’t have dared to stop Stella from doing what she wanted, but today, he had to.

Perhaps it was because the name Miles Sanctus cast such a shadow in his heart that even with his confidence in Stella Sterling’s power, he didn’t want her to do this.

’The main thing is, I’m on Stella Sterling’s side now. If she does this, won’t I also be offending Miles Sanctus?’

’If Stella Sterling develops her own forces, with her strange abilities, the people she trains will also be very powerful.’

’Add her own strength to the mix, and there’d be no need to worry about facing Miles Sanctus then.’

’Most importantly, by the time Stella Sterling’s forces have grown, the situation might have changed. I might not be so passive anymore.’

’I’d have far more options then than I do now.’

He looked at Stella with a sincere expression, but another thought surfaced in his mind.

’Stella Sterling is so powerful... why have I never heard of someone like her in the future?’

He hadn’t thought much about it before.

But now...

His gaze grew uneasy. ’Don’t tell me it’s because Stella Sterling went looking for trouble at Sanctyr, failed, and then kicked the bucket?’

’She died before she could fully rise to power, which is why I never heard her name.’

The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed.
