The moment these words were spoken, a look of shock appeared on their faces.

All of the people from the Litlan Empire were dead?

​​

"Don't be anxious. Tell us what happened clearly."

It was Clemente who reacted first and asked with a frown.

That person panted a few times. Flying at full speed along the way had made him extremely tired.

After he panted, he continued, "It's like this. Previously, Lord Clemente asked us to go out and search for information about the last key."

"For a few days, we didn't find any information. After that, I split up with the others to search."

"We didn't find any information about the key, but we ran into Sapir!"

Clemente and Valentine looked at each other.

Sapir and the others naturally knew that, like the two of them, he was also one of the four great geniuses of the Plane of Slaughter.

That person continued, "Sapir has already gathered the people of the Litran Empire. There were about 10,000 of them!"

"When I ran into them, I was preparing to escape, but just as I was preparing to leave, someone suddenly came!"

Valentine narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Gladstone!"

"That's right! It's Gladstone!"

"But I didn't know it was him at that time, and the people of the Litlan Empire obviously didn't know either. Sapir even planned to kill him to obtain points, but he didn't expect that this was also his goal!"

Hearing the description of the person who came, everyone finally understood why Gladstone's points had skyrocketed.

The people from the two empires who had rushed to the palace to listen started to discuss.

"I didn't expect that the 10,000 people from the Litlan Empire would all become Gladstone's score. How tragic!"

"I just saw Sapir's name disappear from the screen. It seems that he was killed as well."

"But how did Gladstone do it? His score skyrocketed in an instant!"

"Yeah, what's going on?"

"He must have used some kind of trick!"

"Listen to him."

Everyone shut their mouths and quieted down.

Clemente and the others also looked at that person, wanting to hear what kind of trick Gladstone used to kill 10,000 people almost at the same time.

If he didn't use some kind of trick, but really relied on strength...

That would be too terrifying!

Seeing this, that person continued to say, "Gladstone didn't use any tricks."

The moment these words were said, everyone was stunned. They stood rooted to the ground, unable to react for a moment.

"He used magic to kill 10,000 people of the Litlan Empire!"That person said.

Clemente and the others' pupils suddenly contracted.

"And he only used one move! I've never seen such a terrifying magic! He turned all 10,000 people of the Litlan Empire into metal sculptures in an instant! They didn't even have time to react!"

As the man said this, his eyes revealed a look of fear, as if he recalled the scene he saw earlier.

"If Gladstone hadn't intentionally spared Sapir's life, I'm afraid he would have died under that move!"

"However, after that, Gladstone still broke his neck!"

"Then, I hurriedly flew back to report."

After hearing this person's story, everyone fell silent. They looked at this person with a hint of disbelief in their eyes.

It wasn't that they didn't want to believe him but this person's story was simply too bizarre. It couldn't even be called fake, but rather bizarre.

With just a single spell, he had transformed nearly ten thousand genius demigods of the Litlan Empire into metal sculptures. Even Sapir hadn't been struck by the spell because the other party had spared his life.

They had never heard of such a bizarre spell.

Although metal-type forbidden spells and ultimate alchemy would have the same effect.

But in their opinion, things like magic would only be used before the divine realm.

After reaching the divine realm, everyone had already familiarized themselves with the power of laws.

At the divine realm, they could directly grasp the origin of laws, the power of the arcane.

Who would use clumsy magic?

However, unlike everyone else, Clemente and the others had solemn looks on their faces.

"Don't doubt him. What he said is true."

Clemente said.

Although everyone didn't believe him, they knew very well.

Gladstone had used a metal-type arcane magic!

Clemente had once seen real arcane magic during an exchange at the Supreme Academy. He knew very well how terrifying arcane magic was.

The power of that kind of magic was even more terrifying than Joelson's strange magic!

It could even be said that they were on a completely different level!

Thinking of this, Clemente and the others couldn't help but feel worried for Joelson.

There was only one type of person who could master arcane magic.

And that was a student of the Supreme Academy!

Or perhaps a student who had already graduated from the Supreme Academy!

But clearly, Gladstone was the former. If he had already graduated from the Supreme Academy, it was impossible for him to only be at the demigod level.

Hearing Clemente's words, a look of terror appeared in everyone's eyes.

They didn't believe what that person had said but if Clemente had said the same thing, things would have been different.

Everyone unconsciously turned to look at Joelson.

They had seen how powerful Joelson was, but even Joelson had never been able to kill ten thousand genius demigods with a single spell!

He had relied on four terrifying dragons to accomplish this.

Could it be that Gladstone was even stronger than Joelson?

No one dared to imagine what sort of person, at the demigod level, would be stronger than Joelson!

"Joelson, I suggest we leave first."

Clemente looked at Joelson and said solemnly.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Joelson, but that he had personally witnessed the terror of arcane magic.

Although he thought that in terms of talent alone, Joelson might be better than the geniuses in Supreme Academy.

But after all, Joelson had yet to learn real arcane magic, so it was difficult for him to compete with Gladstone who had already mastered arcane magic.

Compared to the worry and nervousness of the others, Joelson appeared very calm.

"Don't worry. If something is wrong, I have a way to leave."

Joelson nodded. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and continued, "But you can leave first. I'm not confident that I can protect you under the arcane magic."

"Alright."

Clemente let out a long sigh and finally agreed to Joelson's suggestion.

Since Joelson had already said so, they had no other way.

They could only leave early so as not to cause any trouble for Joelson.

As for staying behind to help, that was impossible.

With their strength, they were simply not strong enough to interfere in a battle of this level.

Staying behind would only hinder Joelson and prevent him from unleashing his full strength.

As they spoke, Clemente and Valentine prepared to leave with the people of the two empires.

Just then.

There was a sudden commotion outside the palace.
