Chapter 4252

The voice belonged to someone that was standing at a distance. The figure looked like a human and

was dressed in a black robe.

He seemed like an average middle-aged man in his 50s and had some wrinkles on his face. He had

long black hair with a few white strands.

His gaze was extremely menacing. As his gaze swept past the crowd, it made everyone tremble in fear.

The man had a very unusual aura. His aura felt cold as if he had been living in a dark and humid place

all year round.

Everyone scattered to safety. Some rushed behind Deshawn, while the majority stood behind James.

James stared at the black-robed man that had just appeared and unleashed his Divine Sense.

He realized that the man’s body was simply an illusion. It was not an actual physical body but a

collection of dismembered body parts and skeletal remains.

James could sense the power of at least 300 different races from his body.

His brows furrowed.

“W-What is that man? Why does he have such a sinister aura?”

“Not only does his aura feel despicable, but it’s also imposing. He’s already surpassed the Permanence

Acme Rank and is most likely a Terra Acmean.”

“Let’s attack him together. Even if he’s a Terra Acmean, we can definitely overpower him with sheer

numbers.”

“I agree. If we kill him, the twelve death spirits will lose their master, and will be easy to deal with later.”

Many creatures voiced their thoughts.

James turned around and looked at Yente, Leilani, and the other creatures standing behind him. He

reminded them, saying, “Don’t act without my orders.”

Everyone nodded back to him.

James took a few steps forward. He stood right in the front and looked at the black-robed man in the

distance. Then, he asked calmly, “You can control the twelve death spirits and the Light of Acme.

So killing us should be an easy feat. But before that, I’d like to know who’s behind this entire thing. Who

is trying to eliminate me and the others in this competition?”

James wanted to fish for information.

“Unfortunately, you’ll never find out the answers, Wyot.”

The black-robed man had a blood-curdling expression. His lips parted in a creepy grin and replied,

“You should blame your fate for being born to the Dooms.”

At that moment, the 12 death spirits surrounded James. Although they had been struck by James’

Chaos Power, they reappeared completely unscathed.

Following the appearance of the death spirits, a beam of magical light appeared above the black-robed

man.

It was the Light of Acme again.

The powerful man was most likely a Terra Acmean, who had control over twelve death spirits and a

Light of Acmean, making him a terrifying opponent. With his trump cards, he could fight and destroy a

powerful race. Yet, he appeared merely to deal with some Quasi Acmeans.

James’ expression gradually became solemn. He had the opportunity to open the formation and leave

long ago, but he had other plans in mind. Thus, he missed his chance to leave. James had the strength

to defend himself but could not protect everyone.

He attempted to get an answer again, saying, “At least let me know why before I die.”

Although he suspected it was most likely Youri from the Doom Race, he could not be certain.
