"Damn it! Damn it all!!" Sanada cursed inwardly, grinding his teeth so hard that it made an audible sound. "Retreat!"
The enemy reinforcements were already closing in. They couldn't afford to squander the hard-won advantages of the operation by losing more of their elite forces.
Upon hearing Sanada's command, every terrorist commander, including those from other factions, swiftly initiated their group's retreat plan.
"Retreat! To the mass-teleportation magic circle!"
"Everyone! To the spatial tunnel!"
As for Hadean Varsa, their elite forces entered a void portal that had taken twenty-five of their top members five full minutes to summon, linking directly to their main headquarters.
Shye felt a ridiculous urge to leap into the void portal, momentarily forgetting he was present as a hero.
Fortunately, he caught himself before making any movement, as getting noticed in such an act would have been catastrophic.
