Lucien stood there for a mont, still staring at the spot where Zayen had just vanished.
"...Seriously...?"
He swallowed and rubbed his eyes, as if trying to confirm what he had just seen.
But no matter how many tis he looked, Zayen... and that unlucky guy were really gone.
"Boss is really... sothing else. ..."
He muttered under his breath, a mix of awe and fear flashing across his face.
That guy... probably didn’t even get the chance to beg properly before being taken away.
After a few seconds, Lucien shook his head and forced himself to calm down.
"Forget it... I’d better do what I was told."
His gaze slowly shifted back to the corpses lying on the ground.
Lucien took a breath and placed his hand on the corpse of the white-haired middle-aged man and activated the [Divine Extraction] skill.
"Divine Extraction."
The next instant, a faint light gathered in his palm. Thin strands of energy slowly ca out of the body. They moved like smoke and gathered in his hand.
Lucien kept his hand steady and focused.
The energy slowly ford into a small ball of light. It trembled for a mont before becoming stable.
A small glowing fragnt remained in his palm.
"Hahaha!... It worked." Lucien looked at the small glowing fragnt in his palm. and suddenly burst out laughing.
Then, with hesitation, he swallowed the fragnt in one bite.
Without hesitation, he swallowed the glowing fragnt in one bite.
A rush of warmth and power surged through him, filling every fiber of his body.
He laughed again, louder this ti, the sound echoing through the hall.
"This is insane!"
Then, without any further delay, he moved to the next corpse and did the sa.
In just a few minutes, Lucien had extracted all the talents from the three dead players, absorbing them into his own skill set.
Just as he was still imrsed in excitent.
Zayen, who had disappeared a mont ago, suddenly reappeared, holding the corpse of the last player in his hand.
Lucien jumped in shock at Zayen’s sudden appearance. "B-Boss?! You are back?!"
Zayen simply nodded and tossed the corpse of the last player toward Lucien.
After that, he turned his head and looked at the three corpses on the floor. Seeing that they were still intact, Zayen let out a quiet sigh of relief.
Although Lucien had said he wouldn’t damage the corpses, Zayen was still a little worried. He intended to turn them into Redeed Holy Angels, but he hadn’t fully tested the limits of the Legion of Light yet—there were still too many unknowns.
Zayen’s gaze lingered on the corpses for a mont before he stepped forward.
He raised his hand slowly, golden light already beginning to gather around his palm.
"Rise... and be redeed by the Light."
Buzz~!
Golden light surged out and wrapped around the corpses, forming radiant cocoons.
In the next instant the cocoons shot upward at an incredible speed, piercing through the ceiling and leaving trails of golden light behind as they disappeared into the sky.
Lucien froze, his eyes wide open in shock.
He couldn’t even process what had just happened. "What... was that...?"
At that mont the system notification appeared before Zayen.
[Congratulations, Host. You have successfully resurrected a Redeed Holy Guardian Angel.
Lucien finally snapped out of his daze and hurried toward Zayen, his face still filled with shock. "B-Boss... what was that just now?!"
His voice was full of disbelief as he pointed toward the ceiling where the golden light had disappeared.
Zayen didn’t even look at him. "You don’t need to know for now," he said calmly.
Lucien froze for a mont, then scratched his head awkwardly. "...Alright."
Even though curiosity was eating him alive, he didn’t dare to press further.
Zayen’s gaze slowly swept across the entire hall one last ti.
"There’s nothing left here," he said indifferently.
He turned around and began walking toward the exit. "Let’s go."
Lucien quickly nodded and followed behind him. "Got it, Boss!"
Before leaving, Lucien couldn’t help but glance back at the massive hall one last ti.
Then, without hesitation, he turned and chased after Zayen, disappearing into the distance.
"There’s movent."
After walking out of the larger hall, Zayen suddenly took out a Primordial Star Core Fragnt, and a brilliant light shone from it.
The next mont, the fragnt shot up into the sky.
"Follow."
Zayen’s expression remained unchanged. After speaking to Lucien, six golden wings appeared behind his back, and he chased after the fragnt, while Lucien, though confused, activated his speed skill and obediently followed behind Zayen.
"Hiss, such a big commotion from the fragnt. This ti, there might be a fragnt very close nearby."
Zayen followed behind the jade talisman, unable to help but take a deep breath.
After rging six Primordial Star Core Fragnts, the core had undergone a subtle transformation.
It could now float on its own, drifting through the air as if guided by an unseen force—leading Zayen toward any nearby fragnts.
...
Elsewhere, on a vast platform, two teams stood facing each other in silence.
The air between the two teams was tense, thick with hostility.
Neither side spoke first.
They simply stared at each other, their auras clashing invisibly in the air.
"Leave the fragnt behind; otherwise, not a single one of your team will leave today."
One of the n on the left team, who stood at the very front, holding a long spear, his expression cold. His eyes locked onto the other team mbers.
The leader of the opposing team let out a low chuckle. "Your confidence is impressive... but unfortunately, useless."
His gaze sharpened. "Anyone who wants that fragnt... will have to take it from us."
A muscular man standing beside the man holding the long spear picked his nose, his eyes fixed on the other team mbers in front of him with a grave expression. "Leave the crystal behind or die."
"If you want the fragnt, then co and get it. Do you think that we are afraid of you guys just because you have more people on your side?"
The atmosphere instantly turned explosive.
Just then, a middle-aged man stepped out from the other side, with his aura surging, though he looked sowhat elderly.
"In that case, let test your thods!"
With that, he leaped up and lunged toward the leader of the team holding the Primordial Star vote fragnt.
His aura completely erupted the mont he made his move.
At this mont, facing the nacing attack of the middle-aged man, the team leader holding the Primordial Star Fragnt simply threw a palm strike and forced him back!
"With all your strength, do you dare to think about taking my things?"
After these words were spoken, the middle-aged man, whose attack had just been blocked, imdiately felt slighted.
"Sharp-tongued brat! Watch how I deal with you!"
Seth, the team lead who was holding the Primordial Star Core Fragnt, sneered, his figure vanishing instantly before reappearing in front of the middle-aged man, sweeping a kick toward his head!
This kick was like a clap of thunder, incredibly fast.
Horror appeared in the middle-aged man’s eyes; he only had ti to bend his arm to block!
Pfft!
A burst of blood mist erupted. His entire arm was directly blasted into a blood mist by the million-pound force.
"Ah!"
The middle-aged man let out a miserable cry, his figure hurriedly retreating hundreds of ters.
He panicked. After only two exchanges, he had already lost an arm. The youth before him didn’t seem human at all; his physical body strength was as formidable as a primordial magic beast!
"Thinking of running? If you don’t die, how am I supposed to establish my authority?"
Seth’s figure was like lightning, following him like a shadow.
Before the opponent could react, he struck another palm toward the back of the middle-aged woman’s head.
The man felt his scalp tighten and imdiately lunged forward to dodge the palm. Looking back, the space itself had been distorted for several seconds by the force of that strike!
Appalling!
If the fight continued, his life would be lost here!
"Spare ..."
Zayen couldn’t be bothered to listen.
You were the one who ca up to fight, and now you’re the one trying to run because you can’t win.
"Do you think this is a ga? Die for !"
Spirit energy surged wildly.
Combined with the monstrous force of his physical body.
He swept another kick toward the man!
The middle-aged man had no ti to dodge; his eyes filled with regret and despair.
"Stop!"
At that mont, two figures appeared together in front of the middle-aged man, raising their hands to et Seth’s strike head-on!
Boom!
Seth was jolted back, performing a backflip before coming to a steady. "One-on-one didn’t work, so now you’re starting to gang up?"
"Everyone, the Primordial Star Core Fragnt and the other treasures are on them. Why don’t we all act together, kill them, and take the fragnt and all their treasures!"
After seeing Seth’s strength, everyone no longer dared to look down on them.
If Seth was this strong, then how strong must the other two players, who hadn’t even moved yet, be?
Thinking of this, everyone subconsciously prepared to strike together to suppress and kill the three!
