This time, the Black Skull Academy wizards no longer disguised themselves as docile and tacit lambs, but instead opened their bloodthirsty maws, wanting to tear a large chunk of flesh from the Purple Flame Academy.
But Purple Flame Academy realized the danger too late. Caught completely off guard, they were in dire straits. Even sending out all the teachers and senior students, they still couldn't stop the advance of the Black Skull Academy.
Besides being teachers, the wizards of the Black Skull Academy also regularly undertake expeditions, never ceasing their wars and killings.
How could the teachers from other academies, who hadn't fought in a long time, possibly be a match for these killing wizards who had entered and exited the battlefield countless times?
As soon as they clashed, the five academies felt the pressure from the battlefield and could only barely maintain the status quo. If the Black Skull Academy launched another attack, they didn't know if they could stop it.
"What about the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard? Didn't he negotiate with the Black Skull Stigmata Wizard?" Leo asked.
This question completely stunned all the wizards in the hall, because with their strength and level, they were simply not at the level of the Stigmata Wizard that Leo mentioned.
They rarely even have contact with Level Two Wizard, and Stigmata Wizard are legendary beings that one might never see in a lifetime.
From their bewildered and shocked expressions, Leo knew that he had once again been considering the issue from his own perspective. Having encountered so many Stigmata Wizard, he believed that Stigmata Wizard were not difficult-to-reach higher life forms, but other ordinary wizards were a different story.
"I have some news here, saying that the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard went to attend some Stigmata Level meeting, but I don't know if it's true or not," Abigail said uncertainly in a low voice.
Although he was fairly strong among the first-level wizards, he had no access to information about the Stigmata Wizard level. Even the information he was talking about now had to go through countless wizards before it could be relayed.
As for accuracy, it's okay to listen to, but there's no need to take it seriously.
Leo didn't speak, but instead tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair. Considering the information these wizards had given him, it was practically the same as saying nothing at all.
Unable to glean any useful information from their analysis, they had no idea why the Black Skull Academy was so keen on plundering people, nor where they housed so many people.
They knew nothing, only how to protect their academy and block enemy wizards when they came, without caring about any underlying reasons.
They hadn't even gone to the areas controlled by Black Skull to check things out; Black Skull Academy clearly had some unspeakable secrets.
But what does all this have to do with me? This isn't my territory.
" Nigel, is your request that I protect you, or help you solve the problems in Tiyama City?"
Unable to understand the situation, Leo turned to Nigel for advice. After all, he hadn't come to discuss with these wizards how to stop the Black Skull Academy's invasion; rather, he had come at Nigel's invitation to fulfill a promise he had made.
"Master, I hope you can help me protect Tiyama City through this crisis, if possible..."
Seeing Nigel's flickering gaze, Leo directly interrupted him, "According to the contract I signed with your father, I can only accomplish one thing. Since you asked me to protect Tiyama City through this crisis, I will naturally do so. Let's not talk about anything else."
"... Then thank you very much for your help, Master."
Nigel, unwilling to give up, wanted to say something more, but meeting Leo's cold gaze, he swallowed all his words, only uttering a bitter gratitude that only he could understand.
"I will be staying in Tiyama City for the time being. As long as you don't leave the city, I will protect your safety," Leo said after thinking for a moment.
"Thank you, Master."
Hearing that Leo would provide extra protection for his safety, Nigel instantly banished his earlier disappointment and bitterness. As long as he could still have even the slightest connection with Master Leo, he might have a chance to learn something.
"You just said that Purple Flame Academy didn't send any reinforcements or spare wizards to the front lines. Are you sure?"
Leo asked Abigail and the wizard behind her with a puzzled look.
"Master, we are certain,"
"Master, to be honest, we Heavenly Capital, but the academy's reply is always the same: they don't have any spare resources to send reinforcements and tell us to figure it out ourselves," Qiwituo complained.
"So, the wizard outside isn't from the Purple Flame Academy."
Leo's gaze seemed to pierce through the hall's doors and land on a certain figure. His tone instantly turned icy, as if the temperature in the entire hall had dropped by more than ten degrees.
Upon hearing Leo's words, the wizards and Wizard Apprentice in the hall scattered like startled birds, clearing the center of the hall in a flash.
The staffs were pointed towards the hall entrance, yet they hadn't even noticed the enemy getting so close. Didn't that mean the enemy could take their lives at any moment?
"It must be Tuoluoyin from the Black Skull Academy. He's an expert at infiltration; he once infiltrated the residences of thirteen wizards without being discovered."
"These guys are really persistent. Do they have to steal all the people before they stop?" Qiwituo cursed. These Black Skull Academy wizards are no good. They're always thinking about doing bad things.
"That's amazing! I'd love to see for myself."
A cruel smile crept across Leo's lips, making the Leo Wizard Apprentice watching him vaguely see a scimitar reaping lives in Leo smile.
With a light tap of the finger on the chair armrest, a black sphere vanished instantly.
A look of amusement flashed in Benji's single eye, while Yaoyao was perched on Leo's shoulder, seemed to have discovered something interesting and vanished instantly.
When Yaoyao reappeared on Leo's shoulder, a wizard was pinned to the ground and unable to move in the center of the hall.
Beneath the large wizard's robes was a thin, small body, and a pair of seemingly ugly, triangular eyes constantly scanned the surroundings of the hall with a look of terror.
He boasted that his hidden witchcraft was unbreakable even by Level Two Wizard, but he was discovered the moment he sneaked into the dilapidated town.
The attack came without any warning.
The immense pressure rendered his magical power ineffective, and his concealment spell was immediately broken. When he realized something was wrong and tried to escape, he couldn't even move a finger.
When he felt the pressure on him lessen slightly and was able to lift his head, he saw Leo sitting in front of him.
A wizard whose presence cannot be sensed at all is definitely much more powerful than myself.
But when he saw the three medals Leo was wearing on his chest, his face turned even uglier than if his own daughter-in-law had died.
At first glance, he doubted his own eyes, but after sensing the intense aura of Wizard Will he had never felt before, he knew it was all over.
This is a Great Wizard I cannot approach!!!
"Da da da"
Leo tapped the armrest of his chair slowly, looking down at the wizard who could only move his head, suppressed by the Gravity Domain.
There was indeed a black skull pattern on one corner of his wizard's robe.
This black skull is the symbol of the Black Skull Stigmata Wizard. When Leo was in the Black Tomb World, he also received a Black Skull Stigmata Wizard's Stigmata Gift, which was the same as this symbol.
"Master, he is none other Tuoluoyin, First-Level Wizard from the Black Skull Academy. I have fought him before."
Looking at the immobilized and suppressed Tuoluoyin, Qiwituo once again felt the terror of Leo.
When he fought with Tuoluoyin, he was almost ambushed by Dharani's ability to conceal his aura. If it weren't for his own considerable strength, he might have become another illustrious achievement in Tuoluoyin's hands.
As a result, even with such a powerful wizard in front of Leo, Leo suppressed Tuoluoyin to the point of immobility without doing anything.
"Um,"
Leo nodded.
"I ask, you answer,"
"I'll let you go if I'm satisfied, otherwise I'll kill you."
After briefly expressing his attitude to Tuoluoyin, Leo, regardless of whether Tuoluoyin was suppressed on the ground, would comply, directly asked his question.
"Why is your Black Skull Academy plundering so many people? Who gave you that order?"
Tuoluoyin seemed still stunned by the medal on Leo's chest, staring intently at Leo Leo as if trying to memorize his appearance, but showed no intention of answering Leo's question.
"Maybe he's not fully awake yet. Why don't we increase the intensity and bring him to his senses?" Yaoyao suggested with a mischievous grin, perched on Leo's shoulders.
Leo didn't speak, but instead tapped his finger lightly. With a 'boom,' the already immobilized Tuoluoyin crashed into the ground, shattering large sections of the floor tiles.
Everyone in the hall heard a crisp sound of bones breaking, followed by a muffled groan and scream from Tuoluoyin.
Can you tell me now?
"No, you can't... get any... information... from me. Have you... heard of... a... surrendered... wizard who leaked... information?"
Tuoluoyin spoke, but his words, broken and intermittent under the pressure of Gravity, were harder than his bones.
"Alright, then have a safe trip."
Leo lost interest in asking further; after all, he was only curious about the question and didn't necessarily need to know the answer.
With a light tap of his finger, the Gravity Domain was instantly magnified to 150 times, Tuoluoyin, who had been pressed to the ground by Gravity, was instantly shattered into bloody foam.
Because his explosion was so fast, some Wizard Apprentice didn't even have time to react before they were covered in blood.
A Wizard Apprentice had a few drops of blood on his finger. He instinctively rubbed it with his finger and felt tiny bones in the blood.
At this moment, the Wizard Apprentice realized that a First-Level Wizard had been crushed into dust by Leo with a flick of his finger right in front of them.
So strong!
