The man ensnared by the serpent's tail screamed in agony, frantically casting skills to attack the serpent.
However, this only enraged the creature further.
Soon, he was completely crushed, turning into white light and vanishing from the secret realm.
"Who else wants to try?"
The sight of the gruesome death sent chills down everyone's spines.
John could have killed him with a single blow, but he chose this brutal method to make a point.
It was a clear message to anyone considering an attack: think carefully about whether you can handle the consequences.
"Brothers, let's go! He can't fight all of us at once! With our numbers, we can definitely take him down."
"Exactly, guys! He's the top of the leaderboard now. If we kill him, we become the new number one!"
A few voices tried to rally the crowd, and people started feeling emboldened again.
