Attack

"What did you say?" Souta narrowed his eyes and asked Alice again through the transmission talisman.

"The White Wheat City has fallen. Our forces in the city are annihilated and only a few lucky ones survived. We lost a lot this time. I'm willing to receive any punishment." Alice said.

She really felt that it was her fault. While she was enjoying the benefits of the underground base, the others were fighting for their lives. If she stayed, she could probably help them on time before they got annihilated.

But that seems impossible because even Kessa...

"It's fine. It's not your fault. It's just that we didn't expect that the enemy would attack us directly." Souta said to her through the transmission talisman.

"Elder Guan... He is dead. Yenxa is missing. Yuko is injured. Kessa is..." Alice paused.

"What is it? What happened to Kessa?" Souta asked.
