Lightning pierced through the air and trees, the smell of burning permeating the atmosphere; at this moment, the world seemed to suddenly fall silent.
Quin Essey and the Gray-robed Mage, who had been in a standoff, both looked at Lyle warily, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Fifth Tier Magic... this brat?" The Gray-robed Mage's light brown eyes widened.
Being able to use Fifth Tier Magic inevitably meant the opponent had stepped into the Hero Realm, but how was this possible!
The terrifying magical fluctuations in the air still hadn't completely dissipated, as if telling him that everything that had just happened was not a dream.
The problem was!
This brat had clearly displayed faith system magic at the start, and it was even the summoned Tier 4 Archangel of Observation.
Fourth Tier faith system magic?
Fifth Tier magic power system magic?
Mastering two such high-level casting abilities meant this black-haired brat had absolutely surpassed the "Hero Realm" and stepped into the level of an "Outlier."
"This is impossible!"
The Gray-robed Mage roared, his voice nearly cracking, as he subconsciously took a step back.
In all the human nations, the number of people who had openly reached the level of an "Outlier" could be counted on one hand; perhaps there were others hidden in the shadows, but it could absolutely not be this black-haired kid who was young to an absurd degree.
Compared to the shocked Gray-robed Mage.
Quin Essey calmed down immediately, quickly having the water-blue Great Lizardman block his front, his deep red pupils flickering with suspicion.
The reason he could calm down so quickly was that he had seen truly powerful existences that could not be described in words.
It was a suffocating Aura and pressure that one could feel just by being looked at!
People of this other world could not accurately judge their own or others' specific levels like players could; they could only make certain judgments based on general strength.
At least!
The dual high-level caster system abilities Lyle displayed were completely abnormal.
Suddenly.
Quin Essey noticed the magic circle behind Lyle in the charred forest, which had been stained red by blood eroding the ground.
In the current environment, the large area of blood erosion marks was quite obvious.
I see!
"It's a magic ritual."
Quin Essey's face returned to tranquility as he spoke lightly with a faint smile, regaining his usual composure once more.
As for the Four-tailed Black Panther that had died and turned into charcoal, he didn't care from beginning to end, not even sparing it a glance.
The calm words reached the ears of the nearby Gray-robed Mage, causing him to startle; he also quickly noticed the blood-red, gory magic circle.
"This brat actually mastered such a method." The Gray-robed Mage's heart relaxed; although he was still a bit surprised, the tension from before was gone.
If it was a magic ritual, then it made sense!
The "Guardian God" of the Bahaus Empire, Fluder, was a legendary powerhouse among humans, known as the "Triple Magic Chanter."
He could not only use Sixth Tier magic power system magic but also Third Tier faith system magic.
Having lived for nearly 300 years since the founding of the Bahaus Empire, it was also because he mastered Sixth Tier mental magic!
Ordinarily, this was clearly impossible, but Fluder had achieved it; he had relied on magic rituals and mysterious forbidden arts.
The Gray-robed Mage had also heard that some special classes possessed common characteristics between different systems.
Crack!
A charred black branch was snapped underfoot.
"You know, I don't want to fight guys like you at all—not because you're strong, but because of the existence of resurrection magic."
"Trying to kill you off completely is just too much trouble." Lyle's icy voice rang out in the now silent forest.
Seeing the two men, who had been somewhat surprised just a moment ago, regain their composure.
Lyle didn't know what they were thinking, but he could guess the general idea.
A "Maximize Magic" ritual required magic-containing Materials to set up.
He used Troll blood, such a conspicuous material, partly because he really didn't have any good magic Materials on him, and partly on purpose!
There were simply too many spells and skills in the game "YGGDRASIL"; what Lyle knew himself was quite limited.
Not to mention that people in this other world would develop or even modify magic themselves; Lyle couldn't be sure if even killing these two would carry the risk of leaking information.
Quin Essey was a member of the Black Scripture; whether he carried items of the "six great gods" was completely unknown.
