"No need for that expression. The wizarding civilization is one of the most advanced civilizations in the universe, and it has ruled countless worlds. The power of the Stigmata Wizard far surpasses yours. It's already quite good that only four of them died."
A familiar voice
A voice that's all too familiar.
The Purple-Gold Vine seemed to have forgotten that they had been captured alive, staring unblinkingly at the void in front of them.
A figure dressed in a black, illusory wizard's robe emerged from the void before him.
A faint smile played on his lips, a slightly mocking look in his eyes, and his black soul companion perched on his shoulder, winking and making faces at him...
"Why is it you?"
The Purple-Gold Vine stared in disbelief at the numerous Barbarian World lords bowing respectfully... the Atomic Control Stigmata Great Wizard.
Even though he was a level six expert, whose brain could instantly process countless problems, he still couldn't figure out the issues when Leo appeared before him.
He couldn't understand why Leo would target him.
He couldn't understand where Leo had trained so many powerful World Lord.
He simply couldn't understand what Leo was trying to achieve by doing all this.
Leo's appearance completely disrupted his thoughts; his mind was in a whirl, as if countless people were arguing.
He had so many questions he wanted to ask, but because he had so many questions, he didn't know where to begin.
"Master Purple-Gold Vine was quite good to me back then, so I shouldn't be treating you like this. But if I don't treat you this way, I won't be able to attract the person I want, so I can only ask you to make do for now."
Leo opened his palm, and countless runes appeared, completely sealing the Purple-Gold Vine, the Furious Blood Dragon, and the Level-Five Stigmata Wizard Leo had never seen before, throwing them all into the Shadow Plane.
The Purple-Gold Vine tried to speak, but the sealing magic on its body completely sealed all its abilities. Apart from blinking its eyes, it couldn't even make the slightest movement.
When he was thrown into the Shadow Plane and saw a group of World Lord appear in front of and behind him, his mind went completely blank.
How can there be so many World Lord?
Leo has always maintained a neutral stance, acting as a lone wolf wizard without any power.
They originally wanted to recruit Leo, but as conflicts arose, they and Leo drifted to opposite sides.
They even went so far as to insist on capturing the enemy alive if there was an opportunity, and to create opportunities to capture them alive even if there wasn't one.
But only today did he discover that this seemingly powerless neutral wizard possessed a side none of them knew.
That is, in addition to being powerful, they have also secretly cultivated a terrifying force.
Just as the Purple-Gold Vine's head was about to explode from overthinking, a small red snake of only level three walked over amidst a group of World Lord bowing their heads.
His crimson eyes scanned the three sealed Stigmata Wizard, his flippant gaze as if he were appraising three precious commodities.
"These are precious resources of the great Lord of the Universe, placed alongside those newly captured World Lord, awaiting the Lord of the Universe's time to complete their control."
"Remember to keep a close watch on their health. Don't let them die. Whoever lets them die can die."
"Yes."
The Purple-Gold Vine ignored why those World Lord would fear a low-level level three life form, but they overheard a crucial piece of information: Leo was secretly capturing World Lord and taking control of them.
And they too will face the same outcome: being controlled!
Aside from the Black Skull Stigmata Great Wizard, no one else could control the World Lord.
The Purple-Gold Vine finally confirmed that the missing Black Skull Stigmata Great Wizard was in Leo's hands, and that Leo had even learned how to control the World Lord. But now it was all too late.
They are sealed here, with no possibility of escape. Even if they know more about Leo, they cannot pass it on.
What terrified him even more was the prospect of being controlled in the same way...
As Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard, he never imagined that one day he would be controlled, just like those lowly slaves.
It's better to commit suicide than to be controlled.
However, with his entire body sealed, he couldn't mobilize any energy, making suicide impossible.
Just as the Purple-Gold Vine were trying their best to commit suicide and escape Leo's control, the dimensional sky suddenly tore open.
Under his gaze, more than a hundred World Lord flew into the sky rift, and with each strained cry of perseverance, the three enormous motherships were slowly dragged into the plane.
He recognized those motherships.
Of course he knows.
Because they came to the Blue Sea Great World on these motherships for their expedition.
Upon seeing the mothership captured, the Purple-Gold Vine was shocked, surprised, and even terrified, because in the records of previous expedition defeats, the number of times the mothership had been captured was far less than the number of times the Stigmata Wizard had been killed.
But considering that Leo spearheaded this attack, there's no problem at all.
Leo has secretly developed such a powerful force that he cannot possibly let these three motherships go. Whether he takes them back to replicate them or dismantles and analyzes them, their value is immeasurable.
Leo was unaware that the Purple-Gold Vine in the Shadow Plane wanted to commit suicide, and of course, he didn't care about that; the sealed Purple-Gold Vine couldn't die even if it wanted to.
He pointed to the interior of the Blue Sea World, facing the Barbarian World lords who were still awaiting his orders.
"Go, assist the barbarian army in eliminating all the wizard armies and the remaining forces of the Blue Sea World as quickly as possible, and transport all collectable resources back to the Barbarian World."
"Yes, sir."
These World Lord were unaware of Leo's true identity; they were simply following orders from Lord Baturu, who commanded their complete obedience. They needed no further information and naturally complied.
"Hehe, all done."
After the Barbarian World lords left, Yaoyao smiled at Leo and said...
"Go and check those motherships again. Have everyone shut down all the information-leaking magic arrays. We can't let the Wizard World find us through the motherships."
Leo was a little worried about the previous actions of the Barbarian World Lords. The Wizard World had left many contingency plans when building the mothership, and they had to be completely eliminated one by one.
Otherwise, if it's taken to the Barbarian World for dismantling and research, it's easy for the Wizard World to pinpoint its location via the mothership.
"Don't worry, I'll go right away. I have all the mothership data provided by Xiao Er, so I can guarantee that all the backdoors will be completely dismantled," Yaoyao said with a smile.
"But are you sure it's definitely him who came to rescue us this time? Or it could be someone else?"
Before teleporting into the Shadow Plane, Yaoyao paused for a moment and asked worriedly.
"According to intelligence analysis, there's a greater than 40% chance the target will come. We can take a gamble on that. If it's not someone else, we can just leave. They don't know our location or who we are, so what could possibly happen?" Leo said confidently.
"I hope everything goes smoothly. We should curb their arrogance and not let them think they're easy targets."
Yaoyao clenched her little fists, wishing she could punch those people in the face a few times. She had suffered a lot of bullying from them over the years.
"We have plenty of time. It will take them at least 20 to 30 years to get here, so what's the rush?"
Leo looked towards the Blue Sea Great World and saw the spatial passage from which even more barbarian armies were pouring out.
For this operation, they deployed only barbarian forces; not a single extra person was deployed.
The army of Gulu Beast, the forces of giants, low-level wizards, and some other controlled slaves were all absent.
To prevent information leaks, the Wizard World could no longer find them, reducing the risk of exposure.
The barbarian army may seem to have a single attack method, but all members are equipped with Intelligent Soul. They may appear to be just a single barbarian, but in fact, they are fully equipped with all the necessary combat capabilities.
After thousands of years of warfare, these barbarians are no longer the clueless fools they once were.
They work perfectly with intelligent souls, obey commands unconditionally, never act alone, and always act in unified teams of at least ten people.
While minimizing personnel losses, it also ensured maximum combat effectiveness.
In addition, the Intelligent Soul has a good understanding of low-level wizards and has collected more than 90% of the witchcraft up to level three. Except for a few wizards who hide themselves, no one can escape the Intelligent Soul's search.
Leo even suddenly had an absurd thought: when he created the Intelligent Soul, he included all the low-level knowledge of wizards in the Intelligent Soul to serve as the expeditionary library for the barbarian army, as if it were specifically designed to counter wizards.
Compared to life forms in other worlds, the Intelligent Soul understand the life systems, combat styles, and ideologies best best—all of them are wizards!!
Therefore, Intelligent Soul can unleash their strongest power when facing wizards.
The result is that when the barbarian army fights the wizards, the wizards feel a sense of being targeted and restrained that they have never experienced before.
It was as if the barbarian army had fought them many times and knew them very well, just like the feeling of those commanding wizards when they watched the Barbarian God capture the mothership.
The barbarian army was all too familiar with them. Although it was their first meeting, their opponents' movements and attacks were definitely not new.
It's as if the seeds of war with wizards were sown many years ago.
The only thing that Leo is a little dissatisfied with is that the Blue Sea Great World is too big. It's a large world, and even if billions of barbarian armies flood in, it would take decades to completely clean it up.
Even with the help of fifty Barbarian God, the speed increase wasn't significant.
What a vast world it must contain, yet in just a few decades it will be reduced to nothing but cosmic dust.
The barbarian army can take some things, but not much.
"In that case, let more barbarians get involved, and take as many as they can."
