Isolde's landing caused a fierce gale to blow outwardly through the field that had been flattened by the Skinless Hell Cavalry. There were about four thousand of them.

Edwin was taxed with teleporting the weaker students, while those who had the chance made a run for it on the backs of their summons.

Manhattan, Fukushima, and London High elites couldn't hold back four thousand high tiers, they would be crushed.

All they were doing was trying to buy time for weaker students to get out and for aid to arrive.

"He's alive," Ivy said as tears spilled from her eyes. Isolde's golden-orange eyes gleamed as white scales covered her soft skin, and dragonfly wings sprouted from her back, allowing her to fly above the next wave of Hell Cavalry still pouring down from the red gate.

The dragonfly wings allowed Isolde to hover mid-air while Nyx screeched and planted its six sleek legs like black steel poles into the earth, swinging its long tail and sweeping lots of Hell Cavalry away.

Ten purple portals appeared in the sky, and from them, meteors fell out, crashing into the very bottom of the red gate where the greatest number of Skinless Hell Cavalry were located.

Even as they charged, the explosions caught up to them.

Arlo's Sidewinder slithered like a golden blur, leaving corpses it had bitten, torn apart by its fangs or poisoned until they withered into bones.

Not far from it was Snow, releasing waves after waves of silver glimmers that caused great explosions, blowing several high tiers into bloody parts.

Nyx swiftly shot into the air, unleashing one last meteor, roaring with flames as it streaked toward the heart of the horde once more, but something massive burst out of the red gate, blocking the meteor with its hard exoskeleton.

This creature was a gigantic centipede body attached to a humanoid torso which had massive arms and a head.

It wrapped white cloth like a cloak around its head, revealing only one crimson eye while the other remained hidden.

Its skin was pitch black, matching the ink-black sheen of its centipede part that stretched over a hundred feet.

Its thousands of legs had a crimson sheen like they had come fresh out of a volcano. Its eye alone caused the summons of Snow, Jon, Rick, Damien, Tyla, Vin, Ren, and others, except Arlo and Isolde, to freeze, as if a huge weight was upon them.

This dungeon boss was clearly demonstrating its dominion.

"To demonstrate such might… that has to be a mid-level King tier dungeon boss," Evangeline said before straining her eyes toward the gauge.

"11.0!"

Sebastian clenched his hand tight. As powerful as he was, the power of an Invincible was only potent against opponents below their strength.

His summon's factor leaned heavily into Trick, and now that he had risen to an 11.0 King tier, he was invincible to those below.

Anything, as long as it wasn't beyond twenty-four hours, could be reversed as long as he willed it. But when it came to physical capabilities, he would be no match for that dungeon boss.

However, as long as he stood, it could not kill them either. It would take a higher power, like that of Isolde's Dragonfly, to negate his innate skill.

Seeing the monstrous size of this dungeon boss and the two ten-foot, statue-like beings without facial features, each holding an even longer halberd, the same kind that nearly took the life of Ivy's dragon, made everyone's expressions more grim.

"It's them." Ivy's pupils narrowed.

Far to the north, at the building areas, Gregory's summon, a ten-foot panda with thick claws, long arms, and a ferocious look, dropped a dead Hell Cavalier and growled deeply at the dungeon boss.

Around the summon, which was fused with its summoner, were the corpses of countless Skinless Hell Cavaliers, and not far away were trembling students.

There were several wounds on the panda's body.

'I wasn't sure we were going to survive the next ten minutes against these Skinless Hell Cavalry, and now that the dungeon boss and its mini bosses are out, our hopes have grown quite thin.'

Seeing the ever-increasing number of soldiers pouring out, Gregory was certain this dungeon would cause great havoc in Manhattan, resulting in the death of tens of thousands unless a peak-level King/Queen tier or a Throne Tier arrived on time.

But the time they were talking about here wasn't more than ten minutes.

"Are we not going to join them? Thousands of people are going to die, Godfrey," Isaac said, his tone grim as he faced Godfrey, who finally finished his bottle of water.

His eyes had been shut the entire time, puzzling Isaac.

"The headmaster might have a lot of mana, but he's running out of stamina. He's been making sure no one dies, and it will wear him out badly, using his innate skill so frequently in such little time."

"I know that." Godfrey finally opened his eyes, revealing a pair of strange eyes with strange features; black sclera and golden pupils.

It made Isaac lean backward.

"Are you about to summon your knights? You've got a fourth one, right? Isolde told Lucy, and she told me." Isaac said, slightly excited as he prepared to summon his evolved spider, but Godfrey sighed.

"There is a better way." Godfrey lifted his arm. All this while, he had been striving to maintain focus on the headmaster using Ballista's sight ability, but there was a reason that knight didn't have eyes, and it was because eyes were a great flaw to such ability.

This was why it took a long while to finally get what he wanted.

His index finger and thumb met, unleashing a casual snap, but immediately after that casual snap, the red gate dungeon reversed, erasing both it and the thousands of Hell Cavalry that had flooded everywhere.

Sebastian was tier 11.0, but in Black-Out State, Godfrey's tier was 11.7.

While Godfrey, for the first time in a while, felt a massive drop in his mana, so much that it felt like over half of what he had was gone, a city-wide threat vanished into thin air to everyone's disbelief.

They looked at each other, shocked speechless. Evangeline looked at Sebastian, but the headmaster's equally astonished expression made her face change.

"Don't tell me… it's him."

"No one else has such a perfect mimic summon. That boy… he's already surpassed his father," Sebastian said softly.

Isaac's mouth fell. He couldn't bring it back up after seeing what Godfrey did with just a snap. If he wasn't here with Godfrey, he would never believe it.
