Chapter 190
Chapter 191 Marked
Those ten minutes were enough. In that short time, all the attributes and talents of those top prodigies were fully drained.
So when the ten minutes ended, Garfield traded the students away using death-row prisoners. Viola did not care at all. Her goal had already been achieved.
Now, she could activate Fair Trade.
She wanted Joanna.
Viola knew they would probably refuse the exchange. Still, making the offer was enough to give Lucas and the other newcomers an explanation.
Kidnapping students from the program was pointless. They had bright futures ahead of them. All it would bring was hatred toward Bloodmoon.
Only people like Lucas and his group-greedy, unwilling to accept their limits, full of regret, and desperate to grasp treasures that were never meant for them-would truly follow Bloodmoon without hesitation.
These people had to be nurtured. And they had to be rewarded.
When Joanna overturned the balance scale, Viola let out a soft, regretful murmur. “What a pity. They didn’t agree. Joanna is far stronger than I expected p>
See? It wasn’t that she didn’t try to capture Joanna.
She simply failed.
Lucas and the others didn’t blame Viola at all.
“It’s fine. We didn’t lose this round.” Cedric laughed loudly. His eyes burned with ambition. “My talent is now SS Rank. Too bad we didn’t catch a few more students. Otherwise, I could’ve gone even further p>
He could feel his own power surging. The sensation was intoxicating.
It reminded him of the days before he fell out with Joanna. Back then, he had been the chosen. star of Trinity High, admired by everyone. He could do whatever he wanted. He felt like a king.
And thinking about the future made him even more excited. Bloodmoon would capture more elite for him. They would push him to SSS rank. One day, he would roam the galaxy freely as a feared space pirate lord.

Sooner or later, Joanna would surrender to him.
But his pride didn’t last long.
Inside the blood-fog projection, Joanna suddenly unleashed a special ability.
A moment later, silver attacks, like shattered mosaics, burst out from the circle and destroyed everything around them.
Kayden, who stood on the circle, was sliced into countless perfect squares. His body collapsed into fragments.
The death-row prisoners bound within the circle suffered the same fate.
The silver mosaic shot upward, tearing through the hall’s ceiling, smashing through the underground structure, piercing layers of rock, and finally breaking into the atmosphere.
Everything nearby began to collapse. A force that erased all things spread outward, and Viola was hit first.
“Run p>
Viola summoned a purple shield, forcing back the expanding space power and buying time for Lucas and the others to escape.
They didn’t hesitate. They turned and ran.
The shield shattered almost instantly. Viola’s hands were shredded as well. But at that moment, something seemed to awaken in the ruined front of the hall.
It looked like a demonic frenzy. Countless twisted, writhing giant serpents rose and wrapped around the space energy. At last, they turned the silver square mosaics dull and gray.
The space element was petrified.
Viola was badly wounded, yet she burst into wild laughter.
“Joanna, you’ve angered a god. You will be marked. Sooner or later, you will be devoured p>
She pulled out a potion and drank it, trying to restore her hands and arms.
But the next second, she realized the bleeding wouldn’t stop.
It was Punishment of Destruction.

After The Great Ruin finished activating, the circle inside the white giant python’s mouth shattered instantly. Then its entire body was torn apart by collapsing space.
Moments later, it twisted and revived again.
But the circle was gone.
The portal disappeared. Yet the disaster born from sacrifice did not fade. The Black and White Pythons were still raging.
By now, Joanna had already figured out how to kill them.
She had to kill both at the same time.
This type of boss wasn’t rare in strategy groups.
But the condition was extremely harsh, because both enemies were incredibly strong.
Luckily, it seemed others understood Joanna’s plan.
Besides Samson, who had swept in to clean after the mess left behind by Hank earlier, a paladin arrived as well—Urban Ramos. The two of them locked onto the Black and White Pythons, drawing all their attention.
In Joanna’s mind, every number was crystal clear. She calculated her damage precisely. One strike. Which angle? Which position? What result. She knew it all.
When the final tornado swept across the battlefield, the pythons died at the same time.
Black and white mist slowly dispersed.
“You have slain Twin Serpent: Black Python.
“You have slain Twin Serpent: White Python.
“You have obtained Diamond-tier gear: Black Python Bracelet.
“You have obtained Diamond-tier gear: White Python Bracelet p>
Before Joanna could even check her attributes, a beam of black light and a beam of white light shot out of the fading mist.
They were impossibly fast. Joanna couldn’t dodge.
They struck her neck.
“You have been marked by Evil God. Followers of the Evil God will see you as a mortal enemy.

To them, you shine like a burning torch. You may be attacked at any time and offered as a sacrifice to their god. Stay alert and remain cautious at all times p>
