Chapter 240: End of team test (I)

Biting into his thumb, Luciano smeared his blood on the surface of the golden neckless which had the image of an armored warrior on flames.

Luciano went down on one knee bowed. \'I need your protection grandfather.\'

The ant queen dashed forward at a blinding speed and appeared in front of Luciano. It raised its hand to decapitate Luciano\'s head but that was when a pillar of golden flames descended from above.

BOOM!

The pillar of flames crashed down heavily on the ground and turned everything in a 20 meters radius to ashes. That included the ants, trees, and the corpse of the nobles murdered by the queen ant.

(AN: Wow, protection from the god of destruction still ended up destroying things. Lol)

The only things that had survived the pillar of flames were the group, the tree they were standing on, and the ant queen which had managed to dodge it on time.

The ant queen was lucky enough to have sensed the attack on time on time, but even at that, the force of the blast had sent the ant queen crashing into multiple ants and trees.

Due to its enhanced body, it had taken close to no damage at all. When it got up, it didn\'t care about the ants it had crushed but stared at the pillar of flames that formed a continuous flame barrier around the humans.

It was afraid of it because if it had wasted even a second more before retreating, it would have been instantly killed!

It could only stare at the human as a spatial corridor opened below them and they fell into it.

…

Having gotten a head start from the other group, Castiel had used the boost gotten from darkbringer to weave through the forest.

After he had made sure he was far away from the former position of the ant barrier. Castiel made sure the area was free from any beast before casting night mist.

3 minutes into waiting for Blake, he saw a golden pillar of flames descended from above.

Golden flames were Luciano\'s signature flames and seeing it meant that he was helping Blake. This reduced Castiel\'s worry, but it didn\'t take long for a spatial corridor to open. Luciano and Blake, along with the unconscious nobles, fell on the tree branch.

Once Blake was sure that they were out of danger, he turned to Luciano and Castiel and said. "We are not sure if they would still try to kill us. So keep knocking them out till we are warped back to the school."

Immediately Blake was done he slumped and fell unconscious.

"What is wrong with him?" Castiel panicked when Blake fainted.

"Mana exhaustion. I am even surprised that he had reached this level because he used mana way greater than a normal person." Luciano explained as he sat down in a crossed-legged position.

Seeing that Blake wasn\'t in a life-threatening situation Castiel rested his back on the tree because he too needed rest.

…

Back at area Blake and Luciano left.

The ant queen was rage not only because the humans and pile of unconscious bodies had managed to escape, but the 3 humans it had decapitated had been turned to ashes.

Since there was no food for it after its evolution. The ant queen was about to go on a feeding rampage on its subjects, but that was when a human appeared.

The human had a very muscular physique and was bald with scars all over his body. The human didn\'t carry any weapon on him and he didn\'t have any form of aura meaning he was weaker than the last ones.

Driven by hunger, the ant queen was about to rush forward and tear the bald human apart, but that was when it noticed it couldn\'t move.

"First, let\'s deal with the small fries. God says die." With a snap of his finger, all the ants below the king realm began exploding into ash.

"You see. Everything living thing emits a certain level of mana no matter the power level." Zirrack said as he slowly walked up to the ant queen that was rooted to the spot. "So if you are unable to sense the aura, it means it is too strong for you to gauge.

At the King rank beats gained abilities similar to mana vision and one of its functions was to see the aura of anything. At lower beast realms it was termed as instincts.

One\'s aura could be defined as the amount of mana a living thing unconsciously emitted. For both humans and beasts, their aura and control over it were mostly dependent on their realm and mana control.

At the human realm, a human had an insignificant aura the size of a pebble at the center of his body. When he/she advanced to the warrior realm it expanded to the entire body and formed a thin halo. At the champion realm, it increased to 20 meters around the body.

As for Zirrack, he was in the battle angel rank and if he was to release his aura it would encompass more than double the size of the test location.

The only reason the queen ant couldn\'t detect it was because Zirrack had absolute control over his aura, but if he decided to release it to the full extent everything below the king rank that was within range would die on the spot.

As for King rank beasts, they wouldn\'t die on the spot but be paralyzed, but that wasn\'t the reason the ant queen couldn\'t move.

The reason was that they were both from the same earth pathway.
