Phoenix scanned her surroundings before her gaze landed on Scar Face.

Besides Calix, Scar Face was considered the most powerful in Calixion. He was known as the second-in-command.

Since Calix was not present, she could only converse with Scar Face.

Scar Face was in a miserable state, seeing that his hand was broken by Megahead.

With a stern expression, Phoenix asked, “Scar Face, tell me. Is Calix really dead?”

Scar Face was overcome with grief as he wept. “Ms. Phoenix, do you think we would use our Centurion's life as a joke? Mr. Calix's really dead. You have to avenge him for us.” He continued sobbing.

Phoenix took a deep breath and scanned the surroundings once more. She replied uneasily, “Come in and explain the entirety of the situation to me.”

“Of course!”

Phoenix brought Scar Face into a small office which was beside them.

She quickly located a medical kit to clean up Scar Face's wounds before asking, “Tell me how all of this happened.”

Therefore, Scar Face told her about the situation in detail.

After hearing that, Phoenix was dazed for a long moment. “Apollyon from Archfiends? How did he reach Archduke without anyone helping him? Did a Centurion give him pointers? However, that's not possible. In order to prevent any Contubernia in the outer district from challenging our authority, we have agreed to keep the technique a secret from them.”

Scar Face immediately replied, “Oh, right. Ms. Phoenix, Apollyon is no longer Decanus. Someone else has taken over him.”

Oh?

Phoenix cast a curious glance at Scar Face. “Didn't you say that Apollyon was the strongest Decanus in the outer district? How did someone replace him?”

Scar Face answered hastily, “Ms. Phoenix, a newcomer defeated Apollyon, so the latter willingly resigned from his position as Decanus for him. Oh, right. Apollyon must have been insinuating that it was the newcomer who had assisted him in improving his abilities. I suspect the newcomer must be a warrior!”

Phoenix was instantly intrigued by the newcomer. “A newcomer! What is he like? How long has he been here? Has he done anything special or shocking?”

Scar Face answered, “I'm not sure. I only found out about him just now, as I have never heard of him before.”

Phoenix nodded. “All right. I understand. The key to this matter lies in this newcomer. I'll send someone to look into this.”

Scar Face sobbed and said miserably, “Ms. Phoenix, you must seek revenge for Mr. Calix. He died a horrible death.”

Avenge?

Phoenix could not help but sneer inwardly.
