14 Escaped!

Nash stared at his Character Status with shock plastered all over his face, while his gaze caught a glimpse of something quite shocking.

'Essence: 432'

'Essence: 422'

'Essence: 412'

'Hell, it's reducing rapidly!' thought Nash to himself and raised his gaze.

Watching as now everything was in flames with severed body parts and blood all over the place, Nash remained indifferent and commanded the Souls back.

Swish!

Not even a second later he did, the three black Souls appeared right before him, each grasping their blood-covered weapons firmly and staring at him in unnerving silence.

"Let's go," said Nash, but suddenly a deafening roar halted his steps, shifting not only his, but every other humans' gazes from the spaceship toward the skies above.

"There they are! Get them! None of them are allowed to escape!" a loud roar reverberated through the atmosphere, shaking not only the air but even the ground below Nash's feet!

"Nash! Quick, come! We have to go!" yelled Uncle Ben as he watched the hundreds of Sky Beasts flying toward them, both carrying armors and weapons that were seemingly crafted for battle!

However, for some strange reason Nash didn't move nor panicked, but simply waved his hand.

"What are you doing?! We need to g-, huh?" Uncle Ben shouted at Nash to come, but before he had the chance to finish talking a figure stepped forward from behind him and walked next to Nash.

"That girl? What is he trying to do with her?" questioned Uncle Ben inwardly, hardly imagining what a little girl like her could do to assist him.

Though, those humans that came from Section D together with Nash seemed to understand what was about to happen, thus their gazes immediately brightened with anticipation!

When Erys arrived at his side, Nash crossed his arms before his chest and asked in a calm, but kind of ice-cold voice, "Can you kill them?"

"Yes."

"Then do it."

Although Erys didn't like the fact she was controlled, unfortunately, she couldn't do anything against him and summoned her sword in her grasp.

'A sword? What is she trying to achieve with a single sword from the ground alone? She can fly?' many from Section F had this question in mind, especially Uncle Ben, but soon all of their complexions changed drastically.

Once Erys hand was extended next to her side and a gentle white light enveloped her blade, Erys swung her weapon horizontally, sending a ridiculously long and huge crescent arc toward the group of Sky Beasts that radiated like the sun itself!

Whoosh!

BOOOOM!

Like an oversized firework, the entire army of Sky Beasts in the sky exploded into bits, turning their body into nothing more but ash without the chance to even scream up!

"This..." Uncle Ben seemed deeply shocked by this spectacle, not knowing what he should say.

'...' Nash stared at the huge dust cloud in the sky with a nonchalant gaze, but soon his eyes caught a glimpse of another wave of Sky Beasts in the distance, but this time with a stronger presence, thus he had no chance but to turn around and run.

"Are you sure you can pilot this thing?" once inside this shuttle cockpit that was extremely large and filled with hundreds of buttons, Nash asked Revio, a bit skeptical if he truly could pilot such a complicated-looking thing.

"I can." nodded Revio even though he didn't want to and without hesitation pressed several buttons on the panel before grabbing a lever on his side.

Swish!

Pushing the lever up, Nash and every human watched as the spaceship truly started to ascend into the air, and it wasn't long before they were hundreds of meters above the ground!

"Haha, let's get out of here!" said Nash, and without further ado, commanded Revio to drive the spaceship away.

And exactly as he did, the engines of the spaceship exploded with tremendous power, and with a speed that was surprisingly faster than light, the spaceship flashed into the unknown.

'...'

After a few minutes that they escaped, the army of Sky Beasts, each wearing armors and weapons, arrived at the Space Station, every one of them looking at the chaos that emerged in split seconds.

A Sky Beast wearing crimson armor and a crimson sword glanced at the exploded buildings and the corpses below its feet before shifting its gaze at the sky.

"How did this happen?"

After many minutes later, the Sky Beast asked in a low and cold voice, but when no one replied it turned around and roared, "HOW IN THE HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?"

Every Sky Beast trembled in pure fear, but because they were scared that their leader's wrath will fall on them if they won't answer, a Sky Beast in the front stepped forward and began to speak.

"Sir, it looks like some of the humans had escaped and were the ones causing this chaos!"

'...'

The Sky Beast in crimson armor slowly glanced at its subordinate with a rock-solid complexion and asked, "Really?"

The subordinate obviously misunderstood his leader's question and even nodded with a wide smile, but it seemed that was his biggest mistake in his entire life.

Whoosh!

With a speed that seemed to be teleportation, the Sky Beast in crimson armor flashed before its subordinate before swinging its arm that twisted even the air itself, and punched the Sky Beast right in the face!

BAM!

With a thunderous eruption that carried the sound of many breaking bones in the air, the Sky Beast's body was blasted into the ground below, forming a several meters deep and wide crater as if an asteroid exploded there just now!

"!?"

Every Sky Beast seeing this sight and the motionless body of their comrade whose life was unknown sucked in a mouthful of cold air, their body soaked with cold what in an instant!

"Any other remarkable idea or suggestion about our current situation or what could have happened here? I'm listening..."

The terrifyingly calm tone of the Sky Beast made everyone froze up, none of them daring to utter a word any longer.

"Hmph!" with a cold sneer the Sky Beast pointed at several of its subordinates and then told, "Go and check all the Sections and see how many escaped. You and you, go and see if there are any survivors and if there are any, bring them to me! As for the rest, search the whole planet and search for clues about how those low-life slaves escaped! Video feeds, all pieces of information about the escaped captives, and documents! I want to know everything, even the slightest detail!"

"Now scram!"

"YES, SIR!"

With boisterous roars, every Sky Beast proceeded to fly away, only leaving the leader alone in the sky, his gaze now firmly fixed on the spot where the spaceship has vanished.
