Chapter 216: Flying Space Shuttle
How about on your side? Kostas asked downcastedly, when he saw the elementless core. The awakened dead they targeted didnt drop a skill core. He was visibly depressed.
It was a skill core, alright. Malcolm fished out a blood-colored orb. They didnt know what skill it was carrying, but it had the characteristic of a skill core.
Then it means the awakened dead are not dropping Skill Cores every time. Merlin mused.
Maybe this awakened dead wasnt up to standards yet. It was a tad weaker, right? Malcolm asked Kostas.
Yeah. It was even weaker than the first one. Kostas nodded.
Lets help father, and return, Malcolm ordered after they had finished with the battlefield.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

After Mercer took fifty fighters with him to deal with the Awakened Dead situation, the capital was fretting with unrest. Explosions went off in many places at the same time, and one of the places was Cross Mansion. This mansion was once a place where everyone feared, now blockaded. People with full black clothes and masks were battling with soldiers and guards.
Protect the entrance. Man the walls, try to call Mercer again! Kenway ordered with his sword in his hand. The sword was a meter and half long with wingguards. It looked like a giant cross. It was the family heirloom of Cross Family and a gift from Malcolm.
Roger, get inside. It is getting dangerous. Evelyn shouted as she attacked with an orb weapon in hand. When the mansion was attacked, Roger was still there to assist her in the autopsy. Now he was there to defend it with them.
What use is there if we cannot beat them? Roger shook his head and a nurse figure flew out of his body. It went to the battlefield and started to slash black figures with the scalpel in her hand.
I cannot continue like that, my energy is running low. Gordon, the healing guy, was there to help them. Because Serzen was taken away by Mercer, he was taken to the mansion for his protection. But now, even the mansion was under attack.
Sir, you go inside first. We will take care of ourselves. Kenway told him and Gordon nodded. Without energy to heal, he had no use. So staying there would only make it harder for others to battle.
What the hell is that! One of the guards shouted and pointed at the sky. There, a space shuttle was moving towards the mansion with its engines on full power!
Clear the way! Kenway shouted like a sword, and everyone in front of him moved aside. He locked his penetrating gaze at the ever-growing gigantic object, flying true to the mansion, wanting to destroy the structure with every person living inside of it. The thrusters of the shuttle were fired at full power, increasing its speed and velocity every second, making it more and more dangerous, while Kenways aura was rising more and more.
Roger was near Evelyn, trying to pull her out of the mansions garden. Evelyn was rooted on the ground, looking helplessly at the shuttle. A bundle of memories of her late-life passed through her life. How for the first time Mercer brought the young couple to the mansion. How she gave birth to three angels, how she watched her children grow
All of them were about to end with this heinous act. Two lines of tears fell from her beautiful eyes to her cheeks as she clenched her dainty fists in desperation and anger, as she looked at her doom, and accepted it solemnly.
She wouldn't run away. She was the mistress of the mansion and the others were away. She would do her best to protect their sacred home.
