Alec and Carcel froze in their place as they saw a bright light engulfing Kyle’s figure.
Kyle eyed the warm light surrounding his body with confusion but then his eyes widened in the next second when he saw the broken broach lying on top of his left thigh.
All the pieces of the broach shone brightly turning into small particles and soon they engulfed Kyle’s whole body.
Kyle cursed he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry in this situation! He felt his body lighten up and a familiar nauseating sensation crept up in his stomach.
‘Master, I want to question if this broach is a life-saving treasure or did you plot my death secretly!’
Kyle eyed the warm light and stopped the urge to curse the old man.
“Step on the platform now!”
He shouted as he knew barely ten seconds were left and the Array would activate itself. Alec and Carcel wanted to step forward to grab his body but Kyle disappeared from the room with bright light blinding everyone.
Everything happened so fast that even Aoky and Oliver were dumbfounded but they didn’t stop fighting.
Bia cried out again this time with more vigor but Mia grabbed her firmly. After a second, Kyle’s voice resounded in her mind barely calming her down.
‘Stay with Mia until I pick you up!’
After this single line, she didn’t hear Kyle’s voice again. Her round eyes turned moist with tears when she felt the connection between them becoming dim with each passing second.
At the same time, Alec and Carcel dashed to the platform with gritted teeth. They could only wish for Kyle to be safe in their mind.
The students were standing on the platform when the mana around them surged upward violently.
Aoky eyes almost bulged out from the sockets when he sensed the mana movement. His gaze swept past the broken containers as he kicked Oliver with his leg, sending him a few steps backward.
“How?”
He questioned when he saw the edge of the platform where the kids were standing firmly. How was it possible for a Teleportation Array to appear in this place?
Aoky wanted to pull his hair with anger. Just what the heck was happening? He couldn’t even secure some kids?
At this movement, Alec shouted at the top of his lungs.
“Professor jumped backward!”
Oliver saw another attack coming his way. Opposite him, the cyan-hair man attacked crazily without even caring about his safety.
At the same time, Larry dragged his body and tried his best to stand up but from his pale face, Oliver was sure it would at least take the latter half a minute to handle the grave injury.
Oliver didn’t bother blocking the cyan-hair man’s attack and jumped backward toward the platform. The blazing attack landed on his chest and a pained expression appeared on his face.
His left hand twitched as his body flew back with an unimaginable speed.
Alec saw Oliver’s figure and shouted again.
“Now!”
Immediately afterward all the individuals standing on the platform drained every bit of mana present in their bodies hurling out all the skills present in their arsenal without restraint.
Aoky saw the many attacks aimed at him, he shouted with so much frustration and anger that the ground beneath him cracked.
“Ahhhhhhhh…”
Oliver spit out a mouthful of blood and his body crashed at the edge of the platform. A hand tugged on his shoulder and dragged him inside the platform.
Another blinding flash of light appeared in the room but this time the light was brighter. The ground beneath their feet cracked within a second.
Aoky dashed to stop them but alas it was too late. The light engulfed everyone present on the platform and they all disappeared within the void, leaving behind a trail of their warmth.
The cyan-hair man gazed at the lingering white particles but his soul almost flew out from his body when the remaining mana around the platform trembled so violently that the nearby walls started shaking.
A few faint symbols flew in the air, they swelled up with a frightening speed. Aoky eyes contracted he didn’t care about anything else and ran in the opposite direction with his tail tucked between his legs.
“Damn it! Those bastards!”
His protest died down in the next second when a huge force crashed into his body, sending him flying. The ground under the Array blasted into many pieces. Dust and debris flew everywhere as one of the room walls crashed down, shaking the whole building.
At the same time, with trembling hands, Larry finally managed to stand up straight but seeing the incoming doom he almost spit out blood and fainted again.
He didn’t even know when a large boulder crashed on top of his head and he lost consciousness while his body was barely grasping a thin thread to stay alive.
While all this was happening, Ziner and the group of men looking around for the escaped individuals returned after receiving a single from Aoky.
Ziner’s floating figure landed in front of the building with a nonchalant expression. The other men quietly followed behind him.
He didn’t even step inside when he felt a huge tremor shaking the very foundation of his secret base.
Ziner’s eyes flew open with shock as he disappeared from his spot heading directly toward the source of destruction. The group of men following behind him looked at each other with confusion but followed behind him.
After a few seconds, Ziner appeared in front of his room. His vibrant eyes lost their luster when he saw the condition of his room.
Dust and smoke flew everywhere. Broken glass containers, the ground was caved in, and one of the walls sustaining the roof was nowhere to be seen. The only table was split into many pieces.
Lastly, his eyes landed on the cage that was buried under a large rock. He staggered toward the cage and pushed the rock away. It was empty. The beast was gone!
The group of men following behind him stood outside the room with grim expressions when a small groan resounded in the room.
Ziner turned around to look at the place where the voice came from and then he snapped.
“You bastard! What the hell did you do with my room? Where is the legendary beast? You were not even able to take care of some kids!”
He lashed out at Aoky who was coughing out blood. Aoky eyes contracted into a slit when he saw Ziner approaching fist.
Aoky coughed another mouthful of blood as Ziner’s fist collided with his chest. He would have probably perished if not for the other men stopping Ziner on time.
