Very soon, a massacre occurred, and a river of blood flowed in the ground, filling the entire place with a deathly aura.
The stench of blood permeated the surrounding area, with a mountain of corpses stacked upon themselves.
Brunos also lay in the mountain of corpses, his eyes still looking at the sky with horror.
"The demonic wizards are truly ruthless to kill me, and you dared to even slaughter the innocent?" Hazel said with unconcealed anger.
"They were initially test subjects anyway, so what does it matter to you?" Rowena's lips curled upwards. "They could have lived longer and even survived if you were not there. So you are the cause of their death."
Hazel coldly looked at Rowena. "I have already rung the sect signal. The elders will be coming soon, so I advise you not to play tricks, or else you will face the consequences."
Rowena chuckled while shaking her head. "Even if I believe your bluff that you have signaled your sect, do you really think you will be able to survive?"
Her presence as a peak tier two wizard leaked outward, radiating with a strong force.
"Hmph." Hazel coldly snorted, extending her sword and revealing her own presence as an equally powerful peak tier two wizard.
"I see your peak tier two wizard realm has given you confidence?" Rowena looked at her amusingly as she lightly waved her hand.
Two old people, one male and one female, appeared in front of her, their auras unmistakably those of tier three wizards.
"What about now?"
Hazel's expression immediately changed as their presence completely suppressed her like towering giants. Although this presence couldn't physically harm her, her mentality was already weakened, making her mind unstable.
"Sigh." She sighed in resignation. "I admit that I have underestimated you."
"So, are you giving up?" Rowena's eyes lit up with anticipation.
"No."
Bang!
Two powerful tier three beasts soared into the air—a massive white tiger and a blue eagle, both emerging from Hazel's beast bag.
"Did you think I would risk my life without any preparation to retreat?" A smug smile appeared on her face, making Rowena's expression darken.
"Fight."
There was no delay. Immediately, both sides engaged in combat without mercy. Every move aimed to kill, and spells flew through the air.
In the initial collision, the two tier three beasts gained the upper hand. However, after a few exchanges, the dynamics shifted. The two old wizards eventually adapted to the beasts' fixed attack patterns and slowly started to gain the upper hand.
Even though the beasts and the human wizards were of the same tier, the beasts only had a single type of spell from their bloodline.
In contrast, the wizards might not have had stronger power, but their battle awareness was astonishing and powerful.
"Attack."
Without any nonsense, the two old wizards instantly made their moves, and a wooden cage made of countless spikes appeared where Aur was resting.
"Oh no! Protect the young miss," the old male wizard hurriedly said, his eyes widened.
Unfortunately, it was too late. At some point, Aur appeared near Rowena, his big arms tightly holding her neck.
Rowena gasped as she felt out of breath, her consciousness sinking away. As she was about to close her eyes, she saw only the faint outline of a burly youth and felt a warm hand grabbing her neck, not even allowing a single sound to pass through. There was no resistance!
The two wizards looked warily at the sight of their passing miss, their expressions filled with apprehension.
"Let's call those people and Lord Forest."
The female old wizard decisively dropped her blood, her eyes glowing with a pattern.
Aur looked amusedly at the two wizards.
"You can call anyone you like, I am waiting."
"I hope you will be that confident after this," the old woman shouted, and a small figure descended from the sky at lightning speed.
"What happened to the young miss?" the man landed on the ground and asked, frowning.
The man wore a green coat and white pants, with a top hat and his chin had peculiar goatee that contrasted starkly, sticking out like a sore thumb.
"Master, please punish us. We couldn't protect the miss," the two old wizards immediately bowed down and started to cry.
"What happened? Tell me everything," the man, addressed as Lord Forest, commanded.
"Yes, Lord Forest," the two old wizards immediately recounted all the details of what had happened.
"Oh?"
After listening to all these details, Lord Forest's gaze finally turned to Aur, who was sitting casually with amused eyes.
"Boy, how do you want to die? You decide; I will grant it," Lord Forest said confidently, as if stating a matter of fact.
"If you could survive, then you can grant me death," Aur humbly bowed, his grip tightening on the neck of the girl.
"I have been expecting a tier four wizard to come, but you are alone? Who built the circle then?" Lord Forest asked, looking around him.
Lord Forest narrowed his eyes. "Why is this brat so confident? Is there a trump card of his?"
But he soon shook his head. He was quite confident that Aur was only a tier three existence at most, and with his means, no matter what he did, tier four was an absolute chasm that no one could cross.
There was a chasm no one in history could cross, because a tier four wizard existed in a different dimension compared to all other living beings.
