Everyone present understood how Constantine met his end.


    This time, all eyes were on David and the Eldest Prince, witnessing clearly—


    David flicked his fingers slightly, and a blue beam of light shot out from his hand. It looked incredibly refined, almost simple in appearance, but anyone who dared to focus on that light would feel a searing pain in their eyes.


    Then...


    The beam pierced through the Eldest Prince''s body, draining him of all life instantly!


    Even though he had reached the third sslevel and was supposedly blessed with the "Titan" enhancement, with an almost imprable defensive aura surrounding the Eldest Prince...


    In the end, he still died silently.


    David lifted his hand and, just like that, it was over in a second!


    "What kind of technique is this?" Everyone''s expressions were stiff as they spoke. They couldn''t believe this was one of the skills listed on David''s panel.


    But the key question was—what grade of technique was that finger flick?


    A purple-tier skill might achieve such an effect, but surely it couldn''t be a gold-tier skill, right?


    A second-ss yer, no matter how strong, simply had no chance of obtaining a golden-quality skill! The reason Constantine possessed a golden-quality move was because of his countless meritorious deeds for the Antic Empire, and also due to his partial royal bloodline connection to the empire. That''s why it was bestowed upon him.


    David, on the other hand, belonged to the impoverished Earth Human race. How could he possess a gold-tier skill?


    But at this moment, it no longer mattered how confused or bewildered everyone present was.


    The people on the side of the Divine Mountain Empire looked at David, who was still leaning casually against the dining table, savoring the blood-red wine in his ss, with eyes full of reverence!


    Meanwhile, the morale of the people from the Antic Empire hadpletely copsed.


    They had been chasing down various NPCs and yers, but now were at a loss. Continue fighting? It was pointless.Theirmander was dead!


    Surrender? Impossible! Falling into enemy hands would mean a fate worse than death!


    The soldiers and remainingmanders of the Antic Empire were so demoralized that they quickly fell to the losing side in battle, suffering rapid casualties.


    Sterl, outwardly calm andposed, was inwardly quite pleased.


    Earlier, he had used Star Point Finger, enhanced with stardust to maximize its output. To ensure sess, he had even boosted it to level 4, costing him over 20,000 stardusts, increasing its power fivefold.


    With such instantaneous output, even an elite-enhanced Constantine couldn''t survive unless he transformed into a boss.


    Of course, Sterl felt a slight twinge of regret.


    His stardust reserves had beenrgely umted from the initial wave of imperial trials. Normally, it would take months to gather tens of thousands of stardusts.


    Fortunately, the opponent was killed instantly.Otherwise, Sterl would have felt it was a huge waste!


    As for the instant kill of the Eldest Prince with that Star Point Finger, Sterl had only enhanced it once. Breaking through that strange protective aura, he sessfully achieved an instant kill.


    Sterl pondered this while continuing to lean against the dining table, sipping his drink.


    At the same time, he casually unleashed more Star Point Fingers, killing the soldiers andmanders of the Antic Empire.


    On the surface, it appeared as though he was expending no effort and waspletely at ease.


    In reality, he was entirely reliant on energy potions to barely sustain the continuous release of golden-tier techniques.


    Sterl may have looked calm, but the intense consumption of energy made him feel like he was about to copse.


    However, in order to maintain the image of a strongman and to eliminate at least the second-ss units of the Antic Empire to gain more rewards, he had no choice but to put on a brave front.


    The system notifications ringing in his ears brought him immense joy, allowing him to ignore the physical pain.


    [You have killed Hoffmann, a general of the Antic Empire, gaining 145,671 experience points, 2,000 Divine Mountain Empire reputation points, and 1,000 Divine Mountain Empire contribution points.]


    [You have killed an elite soldier of the Antic Empire, gaining 21,441...]


    Especially given his low level, the experience from killing these strong enemies skyrocketed! His experience bar surged like a rocket!


    At this moment, Sterl had an epiphany.


    That''s right, although he cleared monsters quickly, it was merely to collect stardust and blood power. When it came to truly leveling up, he had to take on higher-level challenge tasks. The efficiency was just off the charts!


    About ten minutester, all the Antic Empire members were cleared out.


    Sterl didn''t need to lift a finger, as someone collected all the dropped loot orbs and handed them to him.


    "Lord David, please verify the quantity." a leather-armored yer said, kneeling on one knee with utmost respect. This yer had been among those mocking Sterl earlier.


    Seeing him groveling now, Sterl couldn''t be bothered to care and waved his hand, "Thank you."


    The yer looked both honored and surprised, "I dare not take the credit."


    After that, the atmosphere grew somewhat tense.


    The yers and NPCs all stared at Sterl, falling into an eerie silence. Everyone knew that this disaster had beenpletely turned around by David alone.


    The terrifyingbat prowess disyed by this yer convinced everyone.


    Before long, David''s name would surely resound across nations! Previously, people merely thought David had the potential to be a legend, perhaps even a demigod.


    Now...


    They believed that David would undoubtedly stand at the pinnacle of all yers! Being a demigod might not even be the end of his power.


    The NPCs and some well-read yers knew their history. Before the Divine Mountain Empire was established, a god of hunting had once ascended to godhood on thisnd.


    Though poets had embellished his past, even at his second-ss stage, this god''s feats paled inparison to David''s!


    For a time, there was widespread unease.


    Everyone looked at David as if gazing at an unapproachable sun. Faced with such a powerful figure, even those who wished to curry favor didn''t dare to approach!


    Even the Fourth Prince felt the same. He pondered whether rushing forward to kneel and express his gratitude woulde off as too sycophantic.


    However, the awkward atmosphere was broken within seconds.


    "Thank goodness you''re alright!" Faye approached Sterl with a joyful expression. She hadn''t overthought it.She was simply relieved that "David" was unharmed.


    In Faye''s mind, Felicia was frantically shouting, "Hey! Hey! No, no, no!"


    "Now is the time to build a good rtionship with him. You can''t just blurt things out."


    "Thanks for your help earlier." Sterl responded with a smile.


    He was still quite fond of Faye, who had the potential to be his primary star, and treated her kindly.


    "Huh?"


    "That worked!"


    Felicia was stunned for a moment, then excitedly eximed, "Good!"


    "You did well!"


    She had initially thought that after David revealed his true power, he would disdain interacting with a bunch of weaker individuals.


    Felicia had been worried about how to ensure her good disciple maintained a rtionship with him.


    Unexpectedly, Felicia had aplished this daunting task herself.


    Could it be that... sincerity truly is the ultimate weapon?


    Sensing her disciple''s genuine concern for David, Felicia couldn''t help but ponder.


    At this moment, seeing Felicia and David chatting, the eyes of the others lit up.


    David wasn''t that difficult to talk to after all!


    "Lord David, we owe you so much!"


    "Words cannot express our gratitude. If you have the time, you can visit our Bird Feather Tribeor Snow ins Tribe, and our tribe will reward you generously!"


    "Warrior David, your Earth Human race has long wanted to coborate with the empire on the development of Lustrous Crystals. We, on behalf of the empire, agree to this cooperation as a small token of gratitude for saving us."


    yers and NPCs alike wereing up with various reasons to get closer to him.


    After listening for a while, Sterl started feeling bored.


    He nced at the Fourth Prince. "Is the issue not resolved yet?"


    The Fourth Prince was momentarily stunned, then realized that David, being a warrior from another world, was concerned about the rewards after the historical event concluded.


    The Fourth Prince quickly spoke, "There''s onest step, restoring the consciousness space to normal."


    He walked over to the Eldest Prince''s corpse, which had beenpletely reduced to ashes. Amid the dust, there was a golden chain gleaming brightly.


    The Fourth Prince picked it up and chanted, "Titan, restore the consciousness space to normal."


    As the Fourth Prince spoke, a strange light illuminated the area. Everyone felt a sense of relief, as if some kind of constraint had been lifted.


    At the same time, all the yers present showed expressions of ecstatic joy.


    The main quest rewards were being distributed!


    Although most of them had zero contribution, even inflicting a little damage on those soldiers would yield some benefits.


    Moreover, the scattered rewards from the main quest were still higher than the full rewards from many regr quests!
