"It's over, we're all going to die here!"

The fall of Chaos, a Five-star Demon, greatly stimulated the remaining examinees, who wore bitter expressions.

They could all see that if things continued at this rate, it would only be a matter of time before the other two Five-star Demons failed as well.

Although it was two-on-two, the owner of the Bloodthirsty Castle was two Divine Avatars of the same person. Their divine domains could stack together, which was a huge advantage!

"Are you still waiting to die!"

Claude roared, "Hurry and come help! Even if you can slightly wear down Camilla, it'll give us a chance!"

He was mainly speaking to two Three-star Demons and one Four-star Demon.

That's right, among the people who had come out of the castle earlier were three more Demons. Their mission targets were Camilla's personal Blood Slave and butler.

Without much hesitation, these individuals charged forward, and even some Mid-level God examinees, including Claude's daughter, joined in.

"Where are Mariana and her son Aaron? Did they die in the castle?"

Linley noticed two missing faces and glanced back at the castle. He quickly dismissed the thought and joined the fray to assault Camilla after a moment's consideration, displaying strength close to that of a Four-star Demon, just to go through the motions.

However, to outsiders, he, a Mid-level God, was already surprisingly powerful.

No one suspected that he was still hiding his strength.

Joseph was greatly shocked and thought enviously, "This kid is actually this strong. He's probably fusing with the third Profound Mystery?"

Claude and Chaos were both surprised and delighted. At this moment, an extra strong person meant a greater chance of victory. Even delaying Camilla slightly could create opportunities for them.

Camilla's eyes gleamed with greed. She thought to herself, "I can't believe my luck! To encounter such a genius Mid-level God who fuses Profound Mysteries. As long as I capture him, I might have a Six-star Demon subordinate in the future."

"Whoosh!"

The Blood Lake churned with huge waves.

A tall figure with a human torso and a snake's tail leaped rapidly into the sky. Their long, dark green hair cascaded down, their forehead and cheeks were covered in black snake scales, and their golden vertical pupils flashed with a bloodthirsty ferocity. Their aura was no less than that of a Five-star Demon.

"Blood Soul Snake!!"

Joseph's face turned extremely grim.

This was a special and rare divine beast that could grow by devouring blood. It possessed a powerful physique, immense strength, and a soul that was immune to the erosion of the Blood Lake's energy.

"Buzz... Buzz..."

The Magic Array barrier flickered slightly, appearing somewhat unstable, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Some of the more astute individuals guessed in their hearts, "Is the core of the Magic Array connected to this Blood Soul Snake?"

The moment the Blood Soul Snake charged forward, a Four-star Demon participating in the encirclement suddenly changed direction and retreated. They accelerated sharply, crossing the original range of the Magic Array barrier and escaping to the outside.

Rather than fighting Camilla to the death, it was better to use the two Five-star Demons to stall her and escape.

After all, the mission was already complete, and there was no need to court further trouble.

This scene greatly encouraged the examinees, who began to flee in disarray.

Linley, Thomas, and Corey were no exception.

However, Linley alone was blocked by a sweeping snake tail, but fortunately, his body flickered like lightning, and he dodged it.

Camilla spoke astonishingly, "Joseph, Claude, I only need this kid. You can leave."

Joseph and Claude's eyes flickered, showing some interest.

Sacrificing one Mid-level God to disengage sounded like a pretty good deal.

Camilla's strength was even greater than estimated, and she had more trump cards.

While they also had trump cards, a prolonged battle carried the risk of falling.

Gratitude and the mission were important, but preserving oneself was more realistic.

Claude stated decisively, "My wife and son are poisoned. You must give me the antidote."

Camilla's life Divine Avatar tossed out a bottle of blue potion and said, "Just drink it."

Claude handed the potion to his daughter, Lisa, who immediately headed towards the castle.

Joseph gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I agree."

He only felt regret and jealousy that Camilla had obtained a Blood Slave with immense potential.

All these transactions happened within the span of two to three breaths. Camilla and the others didn't even bother to conceal their conversation.

They completely disregarded Linley's own opinion. No matter how great his potential, it wasn't strength.

The fate of a mere Mid-level God who hadn't yet grown was already sealed.

Linley sneered inwardly, "Heh, you all think you've got me cornered, do you? I'll kill you all!"

His figure flickered with lightning!

Linley suddenly accelerated and appeared before Camilla's life Divine Avatar. Taking advantage of her stunned moment, a red blade, condensed with a scorching and domineering Magnetic Field fused with Divine Power, struck her head swiftly, accurately, and lethally!

A one-hit kill! Clean and decisive!

Relying on the attack amplification from fusing higher Profound Mysteries, Linley's full power possessed the attack strength of a Six-star Demon!

Slaying a Five-star Demon that didn't see him as a threat and was full of openings in a sneak attack was perfectly normal!

"This is impossible!!"

Camilla's remaining Death Divine Avatar screamed in horror, filled with uncontrolled, mad rage.

In an instant, she had lost her most promising Life Divine Avatar. This was a devastating blow!

Linley scoffed, "Foolishly arrogant!"

He hadn't intended to cause trouble, but since this woman was practically asking for it, there was nothing he could do.

"Swish!"

While speaking, Linley didn't hesitate to unleash his second strike, which was just as fast and brutal!

His target was still Camilla's Death Divine Avatar; after all, it was the closest one!

"Whoosh!"

A massive snake tail swept towards him with immense power.

Linley's face hardened as he endured the tail strike. Explosive electrical sparks erupted from his body. His Magnetic Field talent, Divine Power, and three Profound Mysteries, all fused and layered into his clothes, provided powerful defense. The electromagnetic force rebounded, repelling the Blood Soul Snake and sending it plummeting into the lake below, splashing a large amount of water.

"Ah! You've already offended this brat, why aren't you attacking faster!"

Camilla barely managed to dodge a fatal blow to her head, but half her body was still cleaved open by the blade. Severely wounded and her face contorted in terror, she shouted hysterically.

Claude and Joseph's faces were filled with frustration and helplessness.

Though they hated to admit it, Camilla's words were entirely true.

Since they had misjudged and offended this Mid-level God, they could only see this through to the bitter end.

"Just you guys!"

Linley's voice was icy. The moment he made his move, he had already decided in his heart not to leave anyone alive!

"Sizzle... sizzle..."

The lightning dragon snake writhed, emitting countless small tendrils that quickly formed a semicircular electromagnetic domain. Like a cage, it drastically restricted their movement.

"Splash!"

Blood water splashed, and the dark figure, suppressed by the electromagnetic domain, writhed frantically but was still helpless.

"Crack... crackle..."

Countless arcs of electricity snaked out, blasting open gaping wounds, causing a torrent of blood to flow. The surface was scorched, emitting a burnt smell.

Linley swung his blade repeatedly, his myriad afterimages converging into a brilliant, luminous crescent of lightning.

"Wait, I have a mas..."

Camilla's mouth gaped in horror, as if she was about to say something.

But it was too late!

Linley showed no hesitation when cutting down his enemies! He sneered inwardly, Don't even think about stalling for time!

Under her gaze of regret and unwillingness, she was cleaved in two by the lightning crescent!
