Leo's explanation hung in the air, leaving everyone in the group stunned and speechless. The Basilisk they had faced, a Gold-tier bloodline totem, was on the same rank as Hellion, Leo's totem. However, it was not the rank that had everyone baffled but the fact that Hellion, at the early stage of rank one, had managed to defeat such a powerful opponent.
The implications were profound. Hellion's bloodline, it seemed, was not just Gold tier but even higher, at the level of Black Gold—a rank just below the highest tier. Such a revelation promised a bright future for Leo, filled with potential and unprecedented power.
As the realization dawned upon them, the team's astonishment turned into jubilation. Congratulations and praise for Leo echoed through the forest clearing, celebrating his remarkable victory over the Gold-tier Basilisk. It was a moment of shared triumph, and Leo's comrades were genuinely thrilled for his success.
