Worst of all, heads belonging to Golden Cicada's subordinates were strewn all over the floor in the training room!

With the place drenched in blood, there was no doubt it was a hellish scene of death and destruction.

“What's going on here?” Sebastian muttered before a fresh swell of rage rose in him. “Who killed them? Who? I

want you guys to look into this immediately! Get to the bottom of it!”

Alas, everyone was in such a state of shock that they remained speechless.

Of all the Centurias in Northern Faction, the one led by Golden Cicada was undeniably the strongest, yet they were

still wiped out overnight.

One thing was for sure—the perpetrator must've been insanely powerful and brutal to have carried out such a cold-

blooded massacre!

If even Golden Cicada's Centuria had fallen prey to the killer, how would an ordinary Centuria ever stand a chance

of winning?

Overcome with intense fear and shock, Sebastian's subordinates couldn't hear a word he said.

It wasn't until he had repeated himself several times that the team finally snapped out of their daze and began

combing the scene flusteredly.

Soon, one of the men shouted, “Here, Sebastian! I found a piece of torn fabric that looks rather familiar.”

“Quick! Let me see it!”

After inspecting and sniffing the piece of fabric that his subordinate handed over, Sebastian added, “This is leather,

and there aren't many people who wear leather clothes on Theos Island. Moreover, it has a feminine scent to it...

The only person who fits all the criteria is Phoenix! After her sneak attack on me earlier, I wouldn't be surprised if

she also committed these murders!”

Sebastian's subordinates, however, had their doubts.

“From what I've heard, Phoenix isn't all that powerful. There's no way she could've beaten Commander Golden

Cicada and his men.”

“Are you dumb? Phoenix must've attacked with her troops!”

“Take a closer look at the scene, though. There aren't any traces of a large army trampling through... There aren't

even signs that a big fight had occurred!”

In any case, the crime scene created more questions than answers, but since they had no other suspects,

Sebastian remained insistent that Phoenix was the culprit.

To him, it no longer mattered who the murderer was. His priority now was to seek revenge and kill Phoenix once

and for all!

With that, Sebastian turned to his fallen comrades and bowed deeply.

“Golden Cicada, you've treated everyone here like your brothers, and your death saddens us all. Don't worry,

though. We'll avenge you guys! The murderer will be brought to justice!” he exclaimed. “Listen up, guys! Inform all

the Centurias in Northern Faction to meet at our base. It's time to attack Phoenix!”

“Attack Phoenix!” everyone chimed in.

After offering a simple prayer for the dead, Sebastian hurriedly returned to his base.

However, as soon as they left, two figures strode out of the nearby forest.

One of them was a big, strapping man who strutted with confidence, while the other was a tall and lean man who

looked meek and terrified.

His legs were trembling, and it soon became clear that the burly man was dragging him along.

As it turned out, the big man was none other than Zeke's nemesis, Erebus of the Netherworld.

The other one, unfortunately, was the commander of Northern Faction's Centuria, Golden Cicada.

Upon seeing the sea of severed heads and blood, he was hit by yet another wave of despair as he closed his eyes.

Alas, the terrifyingly brutal scenes from before immediately reappeared in Golden Cicada's mind.

Even though his subordinates had all been slain by Erebus, he didn't have the guts to exact revenge!

He had witnessed how Erebus unleashed several shadows to possess his subordinates, effectively turning them into

puppets that the latter could control.

Erebus then sent the group into the training room before ordering them to cut their own heads off.

Scarily enough, the headless men could still move under the control of the shadows and proceeded to pile their

severed heads together in the training room.
