At the mysterious place beneath the outer floating island,
Everyone had collapsed?
Li Si found that strange. What did that mean?
A great many people had lived on the Floating City. Aside from the Legendary-level Arcanists at the very top, there were Gold-level, Silver-level, Bronze-level individuals, and ordinary people below them. How could they all have collapsed?
Li Si pondered this in secret.
Did "collapse" mean that all their bodies had disintegrated, or that they had suffered a mental collapse?
More importantly, was their collapse the reason not a single trace of them had been left within the Floating City?
If it had been a mental collapse, that still could not explain why everyone in the Floating City had vanished.
If it had been physical collapse, then unless they had suddenly turned to ash, it would have been impossible for no traces at all to remain.
Most crucially, according to the girl Azera before him, the cause of these people's sudden collapse seemed to have been the same.
How had that been done?
No matter how Li Si thought about it, aside from a terrifying large-scale offensive spell like Meteor Burst, only methods such as a mass plague seemed capable of killing so many Extraordinary Professionals at once.
But this was a Floating City!
Leaving everything else aside, could those Legendary powerhouses who had once controlled this Floating City really have been wiped out so easily for such a reason?
And—
Li Si recalled the Netheril Magic Empire, which had for some unknown reason suddenly vanished into the dust of history.
In the Gaia World of the past, mages had nearly controlled the entire world with their power.
The several Magic Empires founded by mages had been immensely powerful, far surpassing the human kingdoms on the Fanor Continent today.
