Upon hearing Ernesto’s words, the multitude of alchemists fell silent. In their hearts, hope was kindled. They hoped that Wyatt and his group would come to attack Sky Slasher Sect.
Upon falling into the hands of Wyatt and his associates, it wouldn’t result in becoming their captive. After all, the main culprit was Thaddeus, who was already beaten and cowering in a corner, barely hanging on.
One of the alchemists was livid. In the past, he would have unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks on him, but he refrained from beating him to death. After all, this guy still had his uses. When the time came, he could be handed over to Wyatt and the others to atone for his sins.
Boom!
Suddenly, a massive tremor struck, causing the entire small island to shake violently.
The defensive array surrounding the small island collapsed in an instant, and the vibrant, multicolored spiritual light vanished. At the heart of the island, the Divine Bell also shattered with a resounding crash at that moment.
“Kill!”
Upon seeing the collapse of the defensive array, Wyatt immediately led a group of alchemists toward the people from Sky Slasher Sect, ready for the attack.
These alchemists were desperately giving their all, tapping into their full potential. They understood that, before Ventus and the others could arrive, if they couldn’t secure the island, their lives would be in grave danger.
Under the pressure of impending death, these alchemists unleashed extraordinary combat abilities.
Upon witnessing the situation, the numerous disciples of Sky Slasher Sect had no choice but to rise and engage in battle. However, the highest-ranking among them was only an enforcer, whose combat abilities were simply no match for these alchemists.
Besides, Jared and the people from Duad Formation Sect were also there. The members of Sky Slasher Sect were simply subjected to a one-sided slaughter.
“Show no mercy to anyone! Leave no survivors!” Jared ordered loudly.
Jared knew that if he left any survivors, these guys would definitely stir up trouble when Ventus and his crew arrived. If they ended up attacking from both sides, it would spell trouble.
Jared was no saint. If his safety was threatened, the threat had to be eliminated.
Wyatt, upon hearing Jared’s orders, roared, “Kill every single one of them!”
The members of Sky Slasher Sect were slaughtered, and they were wailing and howling. Seeing this, Sinclair was already scared out of his wits and hastily made his way toward the dungeon.
He was still an alchemist at that moment, so as long as he mingled with other alchemists, his life wouldn’t be in danger.
He knew that people like Wyatt could never kill all the alchemists. After all, many of them had worked together in the past.
All he needed to do was apprehend the masterminds, Thaddeus and Ernesto.
However, when Sinclair rushed anxiously to the dungeon, he was dumbfounded. This was because he saw Thaddeus, beaten to within an inch of his life, curled up in a corner of the dungeon.
When Ernesto and the others saw Sinclair rush into the dungeon in a state of panic, they all instantly became thrilled.
“Haha! This guy is so flustered. Someone must have broken in from outside!”
“Eliminate all the b*stards from Sky Slasher Sect! Not a single one can be spared!”
“Sinclair, you’ve deceived us. Now, it’s time for your comeuppance.”
The multitude of alchemists reveled in the misfortune, hurling insults loudly.
Sinclair hadn’t anticipated that these alchemists would be so violent. They had even taken down Thaddeus, the president of Alchemist Guild.
Listening to the commotion outside, Sinclair was left with no choice but to seek refuge in a cell.
At that time, outside, Jared and his group had already annihilated every member of Sky Slasher Sect. They had begun their search for Thaddeus and the others.
“Mr. Chance, we’ve scoured the entire island, but there’s still no sign of Thaddeus and the others. Could it be possible they were never on this island?” Wyatt asked.
“That’s impossible. We’re far from the mainland here. Aside from this small island, they had nowhere else to go,” Hartwin said.
“President Chance, could you please lead some people to check if Sky Slasher Sect has any basements or secret tunnels? I’m certain that’s where Thaddeus and his associates must be hiding. I, along with the people from Duad Formation Sect, will set up a defensive array on the small island. Once Ventus and his crew arrive, the defensive array can hold them off for a while!” Jared exclaimed.
“All right! I’ll go and search!”
With that, Wyatt led his team to continue the search.
