The vortex expanded rapidly and spread to the entire sky in an instant, and the students in Emenas witnessed a sight that they would rarely see in their lifetime.

The azure sky seemed to be hollowed out, revealing a deep, vast starry sky. The sun, moon, and stars rose above the same sky. Though the sunlight glared, it couldn't alter the deep, dark background of the starry sky. The stars, from ancient times, appeared in their most pristine and authentic form to the eyes of the people below.

The mana and magic power within a radius of nearly 100 kilometers also flowed towards the dazzling vortex above the academy. A tiny black hole was taking shape, and everyone below felt that the magic power in their bodies was extremely unstable, as if it was about to break free and fly into the vortex.

In an underground laboratory deep in the central school building, the floor suddenly exploded, and a gray figure leaped up at great speed and rose into the sky.

A red light flashed at the bottom of the lake of the Walled City Academy, and a black shadow seemed to flash across layers of space and appeared above the academy.

The two of them joined forces and managed to protect the academy below them, but the tiny black hole above their heads seemed to be expanding, the suction force was getting stronger and stronger, the surrounding space was somewhat broken, and the vision was distorted into a mess.

This suffocating magical power gathered and circulated, as if it had opened up something, and waves of chaotic aura began to emerge in the vortex.

Shit, she's about to open a new vortex of chaos.

This thought occurred to the minds of several Sequence 9s present, but even if they realized it now, it was too late.

The three witches were frozen in that small piece of space and time, and it would probably take several seconds for them to escape. The two Sequence 9 Sages nearby were in a hurry and had no specific means to suppress the chaotic vortex that suddenly appeared.

Everything seemed to have entered a countdown to destruction.

In just a few seconds, boulders, trees, soil, and debris were sucked toward the sky by the sweeping gale and gravity, and the sky was covered with dark, flying sand.

After a witch's self-destruction, a cold wind swept across the land, casting a gloomy shadow over everything in Emenas.
