Space was distorting

Previously, the man in the black-golden robe had Cast his spells easily, and they had been significantly stronger than the spells Cast by Mages with four Elements at the peak Super Level.

This time, he took some time to Channel his spell. It was obviously going to be a deadly attack that was going to claim the Sea Skeleton King’s life.

Not far away, the general had dried up the area, evaporating the water to stop the Sea Skeleton King from retreating with the tide.

He grinned when he saw the man in a black-golden robe accumulating magic, and let out a relieved sigh.

It did not matter if the Sea Skeleton King was one of the strongest Ruler-level creatures. It was still going to die at their hands!

The general was standing three kilometers behind the Sea Skeleton King. He suddenly heard a strange noise from further in the distance.

He turned around with a confused face and almost fainted after seeing the sight before him.

It was a claw. It felt like the whole sea had come alive and was stretching its claw forward!

The general had been completely unaware of its existence.

The claw was hovering above the three Top Seaters. Most importantly, they were unaware of it!

Was it an illusion?

It was not!

The sea had indeed turned into a gigantic claw. The claw fell!

The world fell silent. The three Top Seaters had turned into red fine powder amid the huge deafening blast.

The general looked at the shattered sky, and his soul almost perished.

The God of Death had just brushed past him. It did not see him as a threat, despite him being a powerful Mage with four Elements at the peak Super Level.

Its target was the three Top Seaters!

The sound was so loud that people could not hear anything.

Their eardrums had burst not because of the loud noise, but because the silence was causing them to feel like their heads were about to explode!

A moment ago, the people were in high spirits, as they were about to slay the Sea Skeleton King under the lead of the three Top Seaters. However, the trio had just been smashed into dust by a giant claw!

The people recovered their hearing after a long time.

The tides were back to normal, and the shattered sky was recovering, too. Everyone was gradually gathering their thoughts after being on the brink of death, but the three Top Seaters were nowhere to be seen.

They had been killed. They were the strongest representatives of human Mages, people who were one step away from becoming Forbidden Mages.

However, they had turned into red powder in front of everyone!

What was that attack? It had killed three Top Seaters in an instant!

What was their place in this world? Even those who had reached the peak had died to a single blow!

“An…an Emperor…” Fear rose deep within Mo Fan’s soul. His demon blood was surging as a means of self-protection.

However, the demon blood gradually calmed down.

The hand had already left after achieving its goal. It could not care less about the rest of those remaining.

“Brother…brother Fan,” Zhang Xiaohou was sitting on the ground. His legs were unable to support him at the moment.

Jiang Shaoxu and Lingling were also struggling to stand properly. Countless other people were exhausted, lost control of their bladders, or fainted.

The High Seaters and generals were stunned, with frightened expressions.

The sea had returned to normal, and the wind started blowing once again.

No one talked for a long time. The claw not only crushed the three Top Seaters, but everyone’s souls, too!

It felt like their struggle was meaningless in the end!

“It had been waiting all along…

“The Sea Skeleton King was just bait…

“It lured out the Top Seaters and killed them to take out our greatest weapons!…”

The commander stood there, murmuring with a blank face.

Not only had they failed to kill the Sea Skeleton King according to plan, they had even lost three Top Seaters, men who were going to become Forbidden Mages!

They had underestimated the sea monsters’ intelligence, patience, and strength!

Losing the three Top Seaters would only put them in a more difficult position. Most terrifyingly, they had no clue what the creature was.

They did not learn any information about the creature. They only knew it could control the sea and turn it into a claw.

Or perhaps the claw was part of its body?

The creature had never shown itself, even when they were searching and probing the sea monsters. It had not shown up when they started the operation to kill the Sea Skeleton King.

Its claw had descended only after the humans had sent out three Top Seaters. It was hiding behind the Sea Skeleton King all along, waiting like a hunter. It had waited until the most valuable prey had stepped into its trap!

“Chief, we failed,” the commander reported through his communication device.

The other end remained silent.

“We have lost three Top Seaters without obtaining any information about its strength, appearance, traits, and species,” the commander admitted in a helpless voice.

The chief had ordered him to hold the line. However, the commander could adjust the plan based on circumstances.

The commander had been too careless. He had underestimated the sea monsters, resulting in this tragedy.

How were they going to recover from this and find the resolve to face the sea monsters again?

“At least we confirmed there’s an Emperor in the East China Sea,” Chief Hua replied.

The commander’s face contorted. They had paid a huge price just to obtain such a useless piece of information.

It was a total failure!

Mo Fan, Jiang Shaoxu, and Lingling went back to the city.

They did not speak, sitting quietly in the living room. Everything felt so unreal to them.

The tall buildings, busy roads, and the flourishing city did not feel real to them anymore. They knew everything could be destroyed in an instant after witnessing the horrifying sight.

“Actually, we didn’t have to feel so dispirited. The creature was hiding for so long and left so quickly after making its move because it was wary of our Forbidden Mages,” Lingling spoke up.

Mo Fan twisted his lips. Her words were reasonable…

Humans still had Forbidden Mages. They did not show themselves because they were wary of the Emperors among the sea monsters.

They would not show themselves until they learned the numbers, species, and strength of the sea monsters’ Emperors.

Just like today. If it had been a Forbidden Mage who had tried to kill the Sea Skeleton King, he or she would have died with the others!

A Forbidden Mage could not take on an Emperor alone. If the creature had managed to lure out a Forbidden Mage, it would do everything it could to kill the Forbidden Mage, even if it meant exposing itself to take out the human leaders.

Without Forbidden Mages, how were the humans going to stop the sea monsters?
