This Great Annihilation Plan was devised from the moment of arrival, or rather, the plan was originally designed; the arrival was tailored to the situation in the Giant World.

The five Stigmata Wizard tacitly approved and carried out the plan with their consent, meaning they would bear the consequences for the deaths of over 300,000 wizards.

During the execution of the plan, all five Stigmata Wizard were mobilized to ensure its smooth progress, in order to prevent the World Lord the Giant World from disrupting the plan.

Now, with the plan almost complete, not a single World Lord of the Giant World has appeared.

The seven World Lord of the Giant World seem to have all become deaf and blind!

"Are they scared after being beaten?"

Leo couldn't think of any other reason why these World Lord would refrain from intervening while watching their subordinates perish.

"Lord Leo, there's something I'd like to tell you, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate?"

Seeing Leo deep in thought, Benji hesitated and spoke softly.

"What is it? Speak."

Leo snapped out of his reverie and looked at Benji, whose face was full of confusion. This was the first time Leo had ever seen such a pained expression on Benji's face, one that seemed to want to say something but couldn't.

"It's Lady Yaoyao,"

What's wrong with him?

"About two weeks ago, with the help of Wizard Kaba and the others, Lord Yaoyao captured a level one giant and is currently imprisoning him in the fortress's basement." Benji, with his one eye, glanced cautiously at Leo, fearing Leo might mistake him for a taciturn informant.

However, this matter cannot be ignored. It wouldn't matter if it were other native creatures, but the matter of the giants is of great importance. This is something that the Stigmata Wizard ordered to be handed over.

But now Yaoyao has secretly captured someone without even informing Lord Leo.

Benji thought it was fine not to hand it over, but at least Lord Leo should be informed.

Is that so?

Leo's emotions didn't change, but through his soul perception, he had already sensed Yaoyao's location; she was indeed in the basement of the fortress.

No wonder I only appeared once in all this time since I woke up, and when I asked what was wrong, I couldn't answer any questions. It turns out I had secretly hidden a giant inside.

What's even more despicable is that Kaba also helped Yaoyao cover for her.

The life or death of one giant was insignificant; during their year-long defense, they had killed countless giants.

However, when there is a clear instruction from the command center, killing Titans must have a legitimate and appropriate reason, rather than being done based on personal preferences.

Leo guessed that Kaba was keeping quiet because he was afraid this matter would affect him, and if it came to light later, he could receive less punishment.

If Yaoyao goes too far, it can be said that the giant died while Leo was in a coma.

But now that Leo knows, there is absolutely no reason for Yaoyao to continue. There is no need to offend those guys in the command center because of a giant.

"Very well, I won't tell Yaoyao that you were the one who told her," Leo said to Benji.

"Thank you, Lord Leo."

Leo didn't let Benji follow him; instead, he walked alone towards the basement, leaning on the Godslaying Staff.

As Shadow Walking, not a single wizard noticed Leo's figure. Even Yao Yao, whose Shadow Talent talent Yaoyao than Leo's, did not realize that Leo was right outside the door.

Leo was about to push open the basement door, but the Yaoyao laughter coming from inside made Leo stop. He wanted to see what Yaoyao was up to.

"Hehehe, Wakeda, are you still not going to tell me where your tribe is?" Yaoyao's eerie laughter came from inside the door.

"Evil creature, kill me! The great God of Giants Kampas will avenge me!"

A voice filled with anger yet helplessness rang out, its strained tone revealing weakness.

" Kampas, the God of Giants??"

"Don't you know that your god has already been driven away by our great, Undying Body Stigmata Wizard?"

"In just over a year, hundreds of millions of you giants have been captured, and millions have died, but where are your gods?"

"What makes you think your god would come running to fight our great Invincible wizard for a mere level one giant like you?"

Yaoyao's words, piercing straight to the soul, caused the giant's final act of bravado to crumble like a castle in the air; any words without a foundation of strength are utterly powerless.

The giant fell silent, no matter what Yaoyao said.

"We made a deal: if you gave me a piece of information, I'd treat you to a good meal. Our deal was clearly successful, so why are you unilaterally breaking it now?"

"You must know that we wizards are the most trustworthy of our promises. Once we make a promise, we never break it, even if it costs us our lives."

"Of course, if anyone breaches the contract, the price they pay will be far more than just their life."

"You're now in breach of contract!"

Do you know what the consequences of breaching a contract are?

"I don't know." The giant's deep voice rang out again, filled with resentment, indicating that the breach of contract was causing him great distress.

"Your body will be cut off piece by piece, and you will feed yourself with this flesh. Because of your powerful physique, new flesh will grow from these wounds."

"When it grows out, we cut it off and feed it to you, then it keeps growing, and we keep feeding you, until your body has no flesh left, and you're just a skeleton."

"This process will take a very, very long time. Do you want to end up like that?"

"I don't want to." The giant's voice rang out, tinged with fear; perhaps the concept of such cruel punishment was simply not in his mind.

"Then you must keep our agreement. I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer it. If you answer correctly, I'll feed you. I promise I won't mistreat or harm you. Isn't that much better than falling into the hands of those cruel wizards?"

"You lied to me back then. You didn't say you were looking for my tribe." The giant was getting anxious; he was confused by what Yaoyao had said.

It seems like it's my fault, but it also seems like it's Yaoyao's fault; in short, something is wrong.

He had never encountered such a difficult question before and had no idea how to answer it. Perhaps only the wisest priest in the tribe could answer it.

"The issue has come full circle. Since you said you didn't want to make a promise with me, what about the meal I gave you as a token of our agreement?"

"Is this how all giants trick people out of their food? Do you know how precious that food is? We wouldn't even eat it ourselves, and I secretly gave it all to you, and now you're denying it?"

Yaoyao's mouth was like a machine gun, rattling away so fast that the giant couldn't get a word in edgewise. In short, Yaoyao said that the giant was wrong; he had deceived Yaoyao and cheated her out of Yaoyao food.

"Then let me go, and I can hunt for you to repay your food debt. I am the most skilled hunter in our tribe. Just give me a few days, and I will hunt three times the amount of food for you." The giant's voice was muffled, perhaps because he was very frustrated and didn't know how he owed Yaoyao so much food.

"Hmph, what if you run away? I won't be able to find you. You lied to me before, so who knows if you won't lie to me this time!"

"Besides, if you die or get injured along the way, or fail to hunt enough prey, I won't get any protection."

"You claim to be the most skilled hunter in your tribe, but I've never seen you."

"You have to give me a promise," Yaoyao's resolute voice rang out.

"If I don't return, you can go to the Left Bank Dense Forest to find my tribe. As long as it's my promise, my tribe will fulfill it for me." The giant Wakeda, questioned by Yaoyao, loudly defended himself. He was a giant who kept his promises, not a giant who broke his word.

" Left Bank Dense Forest?"

"Uh-huh."

Leo scratched his head speechlessly. Hearing the giant Wakeda's "uh-huh" sounds, he could tell that Vakda was nodding seriously.

"Alright, you can have a good meal today. I'll bring it to you in a bit." Yaoyao suppressed her laughter; she had actually managed to get the tribe's address so quickly.

"I can't keep our promise, I can't eat your food." The giant Wakeda hadn't reacted yet; the stubborn man was still stuck in their previous conversation, and he was going hunting to repay Yaoyao for the food she had given him.

Leo laughed at the Wakeda giant's stupidity; he hadn't even realized what was happening by now.

Yaoyao didn't explain, but instantly appeared outside the door, clutching her stomach and opening her mouth wide, about to burst into laughter. However, she saw Leo glaring at her menacingly outside the door.

In an instant, all the smiles froze on their faces!

"Give me a reasonable explanation," Leo said calmly.

Yaoyao's big eyes Gulu left and right, and then she suddenly shouted while clutching her stomach, "My stomach hurts! I'm going to poop! Wait for me, I'll explain when I get back!"

Leo reached out and grabbed Leo, Yaoyao had vanished from the shadows, instantly pulling him back. Leo sneered at Yaoyao pitiful Yao Yao in his hand, "You don't need to eat, so why are you taking a dump? I'll give you ten seconds. If you don't tell me, don't blame me."

"I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?" Yaoyao seemed to have a motor installed in Leo's hand, spinning wildly, but unfortunately, she just couldn't escape from Leo's grasp.

"I just saw you were working too hard and wanted to help you out. If we can get the location of their tribe from the giants, we can capture a group of giants and achieve great military merit."

"Gone?" Leo lifted Yaoyao up to his face, his disbelieving gaze seeming to see right through Yaoyao.

"You don't trust me anymore, waaaaah!"

Meeting Leo's disbelieving gaze, Yaoyao burst into tears, but after crying for a long time, not a single tear fell.

"Alright, I don't object to your actions, but next time you must tell me first, so I can protect you immediately if you get into trouble."

How could Leo possibly punish his soulmate? He was just afraid that Yaoyao would go too far.
