Lokas didn't answer the question because he didn't know either. He had never seen a Level Three Great Wizard who could withstand 80,000 points of attack power with just his physical body; even those body-refining Great Wizard couldn't do it.

No wonder Great Wizard Leo dared to push against the Pseudo-Level Four male ant. With that defense that ignores 80,000 attack points, he could probably take on another Pseudo-Level Four male ant without any problem.

In particular, the 80,000 points of defense is only because the attack power of the Pseudo-Level Four male ant is 80,000 points, not because the defense power of the Vengeance Giant is 80,000 points.

Without witnessing an attack capable of injuring the Vengeance Giant, who knows how strong his defense is?!

If Leo knew about Lokas's question, he could easily answer it for him and tell him the extent of his defensive capabilities.

The evolution rate of the Indestructible Body is 3.2%, which translates to 32,000 points of defense.

The Godslaying Wizard Robe increases Leo's defense by 20,000 points based on his strength.

The bone armor on the Vengeance Giant could completely withstand an attack of 15,000 points.

Another thing that went unnoticed was that Leo had a layer of domain covering him. This was the seventh domain that Leo had added after completing the new Godslaying Set — the Space Deflection Domain.

This area has no direct lethality; when it covers an enemy, it can only deflect their attacks. What was originally aimed at the target may actually be deviated by tens of degrees.

Leo did not cover the Pseudo-Level Four four male ant with the Space Deflection Domain, but attached it to himself. This caused the attacks he was attacked to undergo a certain degree of spatial deflection.

Originally aimed at Leo's vital points, the shot somehow missed its mark when it actually landed on Leo.

The same applies to the fire attacks of the Pseudo-Level Four four male ants. Although they all seemed to stick to Leo, some of them were deflected and did not stick to Leo.

With the combined defensive powers of the Indestructible Body, the Godslaying Wizard Robe, and the Vengeance Giant's Bone Armor, Leo's physical defense soared to 67,000 points. This figure does not include the four protective shields provided by the Wizard Medal, since the Pseudo-Level Four four male ant's fire attack is a continuous attack, and the protective shields were instantly broken, so they cannot be included in this defensive power calculation.

As for Lokas's statement that the Pseudo-Level Four male ant's fire attack power was 80,000 points, that is indeed true. However, what he didn't know was that the Pseudo-Level Four male ant was covered by Leo's six domains, leaving it with only 70% of its strength. The 80,000 points of attack power was actually only 56,000 points.

Faced with such an attack, the Vengeance Giant didn't even need to use the shadow within his body that could absorb 50% of the damage; it was blocked by his own defenses. This is why he could ignore the high temperatures and bathe in the flames.

"Hehehe, little guy, aren't you going to call your parents?"

In the distance, the Vengeance Giant had already lifted the Pseudo-Level Four male ant, now only its torso, above its head, its mocking tone still demanding to know the whereabouts of the World Lord.

The male ant showed no sign of compromise, spewing its last flames at the Vengeance Giant in a final, desperate counterattack before its death.

But even the flames he unleashed at his peak couldn't harm the Vengeance Giant of Vengeance Giant, so how could his current death throes possibly hurt it?

The Vengeance Giant let the flames spray onto his body, and then, before the eyes of all the wizards, he suddenly exerted force with both arms, instantly tearing the Pseudo-Level Four male ant apart.

Large swathes of flame flowed from the mouth of the male ant after it was torn open, and these flames spread to the ground, burning through large craters.

The soil, which is normally non-flammable, becomes the most durable fuel under the flame in the male ant's mouth.

With a wave of its hand, the Vengeance Giant took the corpse of the Pseudo-Level Four male ant into its Shadow Space. Pseudo-Level Four materials are rare treasures.

Leo glanced around at the unconscious Queen Ant, then immediately released the Bloodline of the Vengeance Giant, reverting to his normal human form.

The Godslaying Staff in his hand continuously channeled magic power into the Vengeance Giant's body, rapidly restoring his nearly depleted mana.

The entire battle appeared easy, but in reality, the Seven Great Domains were constantly exerting their power. While the Space Deflection Domain protected Leo, the six domains continuously suppressed the Pseudo-Level Four male ant, directly reducing his combat power by 30%, which is why the battle looked so easy.

Of course, even without this 30% suppression, the battle wouldn't be too difficult.

Leo appeared in front of Mahad and the others with a light step, looking at Lokas and asking, "Master, have you discovered anything?"

Lokas knew what Leo was talking about, and shook his head, saying, "This male ant didn't send out any information throughout the entire battle; he didn't contact the World Lord."

The reason Leo repeatedly tortured this Pseudo-Level Four male ant was to force it to contact the World Lord.

As long as he contacts the World Lord, Lokas and his group will be able to make some progress, and may even be able to find the World Lord's location by following the clues.

Unfortunately, even after being tormented by Leo, this male ant still failed to contact the World Lord, shattering Leo's hopes of gaining some battle merits.

"Master, you've worked hard. Please rest for a while. We'll return to the ground after we capture the queen ants."

Mahad never put on airs in front of Leo; his goofy grin made it impossible to tell that he was the son of a noble Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard.

"Those ant queens have all been knocked unconscious by the aftershocks of the battle and won't wake up for ten days to half a month. You can just seal them away," Leo said.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master. I have some rare ingredients that my father has collected. After we return to the ground to rest, I would like to ask you to do me the honor of tasting them."

Upon hearing about the rare ingredients, Yaoyao immediately turned her gaze away from the distance and stared intently at Leo, wanting to eat.

"Then I'm sorry."

Leo laughed heartily. He couldn't miss out on free food. Although wizards didn't need to eat, as their magic power could sustain their bodies, he had never actually seen a wizard who didn't eat.

Enjoying delicious food is probably a way to relax that all wizards agree on!

"Let's all do it together."

Overjoyed to receive Leo's agreement for the first time, Mahad invited all the wizards to enjoy the meal together.

Having witnessed a legendary battle, and with even Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard declaring that he wanted to eat the rare ingredients, all the wizards wore smiles of joy.

Of course, they were even more respectful when facing Leo. As expected of Legendary Great Wizard, his skills were beyond their comprehension.

For lower-level wizards, a simple nod was enough for Leo. Only when facing Lokas and the other Level Three Great Wizard did he maintain normal communication, but he could still sense some respect from these Level Three Great Wizard.

Strength is always the foundation of status and the strongest backing for respect!

While Mahad led the wizard to seal the thirteen queen ants, Leo subtly moved his fingers and sent out several level-two male ant puppets to explore deeper underground.

Over the past five years, Yaoyao has sent out dozens of male ant puppets, but none of them have yielded any effective results.

Leo and Yaoyao's idea was to see if the ant colony could dig the burrow to the center of the plane. If they did, they could try to secretly mine some of the Planetary Core.

The ability to evolve a world within the Shadow Space is an irresistible temptation for Leo, and he will not give up as long as there is even a glimmer of hope.

An entire world is born before one's eyes. The sheer number of rule changes involved is likely an invaluable opportunity that even the Supreme Lord would not want to miss.

Unfortunately, so far, none of the male ants sent out have found the cave that leads directly to the center of the plane.

Perhaps the ant colony in the Ant God World never actually dug to the center of the plane; it was just wishful thinking on Leo's part.

Without the Planetary Core, the evolution of the Shadow Space is impossible, and any opportunity that even Supreme Lord would not miss is merely a mirage.

After sending out the male ant puppet, Leo also checked the information on the information exchange platform and transmitted the intelligence he had collected about the Pseudo-Level Four male ants, including the male ants' attack methods, attack power, defenses, and weak points.

Before they encountered this Pseudo-Level Four male ant, there was no information about this type of male ant on the information platform. However, when Leo passed on the information, they saw the second message about being attacked by Pseudo-Level Four 4 male ant.

That was a relatively powerful wizard squad, led by two Level Three Great Wizard, consisting of twenty-three Level Two Wizard, hundreds of level-one wizards, and an army of one hundred thousand slaves.

They also encountered the Pseudo-Level Four male ant in an enormous cave. In the end, the Pseudo-Level Four male ant was killed, and all the queen ant army that had been lying in ambush were also killed.

However, this wizard squad paid the price of half of the slave army being killed, including no fewer than fifty first and second-level wizards.

These are just the death statistics, not the injury statistics. The injury statistics are likely much higher, and Leo guessed that the two Level Three Great Wizard wouldn't be doing too well either.

After all, Leo had personally experienced the combat power of Pseudo-Level Four male ant; in a one-on-one fight, few Level Three Great Wizard could defeat it.

Such casualties meant a disastrous cleanup mission for that wizard squad. The battle merits gained could not offset the cost of the wizards' losses, especially considering the deaths of more than 50,000 slaves – all of which cost money.

Mahad's situation is different. He didn't even consider making money when he came on this expedition. The wizard bodyguard team his father found for him would cost him more than ten worlds to recoup his investment.

Mahad's expedition served two purposes: to learn and to adapt—to gain experience from expeditions and to adapt to the life of a wizard.

As for how much money it would cost, with his father's status, even a single hair would be enough for Mahad spend lavishly.

Leo also checked the information about the World Lord of the Ant God World, but there was no news. The two Stigmata Wizard, Star Gravity and Invincible, had been searching for their location since the Great War of Descendants, but they had not found them yet.
