The entire battlefield fell silent.
The First Domain ability users charging onto the island all stopped in their tracks.
They were utterly stunned.
Who was Bruno Kane?
An ability user of the [Giant Axe] sequence, domain sequence level three, and a notorious monster of strength in the First Domain.
During an operation against the World-Destroying Church, he had once shouldered his giant axe and single-handedly smashed through every defensive formation, then hammered a physical-enhancement ability user of the same level into the seabed. They had never even recovered the body.

He was not dead, but the armor over his chest was completely caved in. Half his rib cage had visibly collapsed, and blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Even as a domain sequence ability user renowned for his strength and physique, that blow had left him barely able to breathe.
Bruno looked down at his chest in disbelief.
"How could this..."
He raised his head to look at Qin Siyang, his eyes full of wariness.
"What sequence ability do you have?! How can you be stronger than my hundredfold strength amplification?!"
Qin Siyang merely sneered and gave no answer.
That was nothing yet.
That swing had been pure brute force. He had not even activated his skills.
But the battle would not pause for long just because Bruno was injured.
Elsewhere, Hu Chan and Gu Yunzheng had already led the others in holding their ground and fighting back against the First Domain forces.
Lucius reacted at once, raising the white emblem in his hand high.
"Surround them!"
Six shields of light flew out and landed around Bruno,
