Whether it was Adam or any other Phantom, Phantoms were obligated to help each other in difficult situations. Sure, some might refuse like Iren since no one could force them to, but most Phantoms were willing to help any fellow Phantom in trouble. Fred, Ester, and Romeo were here, and for the same reason, a few other K1-Squads that were near Iron Beacon or in the nearby ruins of Salt Village were on their way. However... In especially dangerous situations, when a strong monster or aggressive Phantoms from the Lower Ring appeared, the Citadel would send help directly from the center. It was always a stronger Phantom. Sometimes, it could even be someone like Damien, one of the Second Rank Phantoms, but it happened more on his whim, and only if the mission could be finished quickly, so he would not waste his valuable time. This time, the dark fighter was quickly heading towards Iron Beacon. There was only one K2-Phantom inside, but that was more than enough for a mission like this. No matter how strong Tirana and Olax were, they were no match for the K2-Phantom, especially considering Fred, Ester, and Adam were on the battlefield as well. A man with calm eyes and short black hair looked at the rapidly passing clouds. Iron Beacon was about thirty more seconds away and he would be in position. "Well... Who would have thought it would turn out like this?" Prago muttered, staring thoughtfully ahead. It had been a while ago that they were fighting to the death, and now Prago was going on a rescue mission for Adam. Crackle. A massive rock with a sharp tip pierced the cockpit, killing the pilot and stopping the fighter. Prago's eyes went wide as he abruptly stood up and opened the black case, pulling out his Nexus - a massive halberd with a sharp dark blue blade. He hadn't expected someone to attack him directly into the fighters at all, but he had no time to waste worrying about it. The pilot was already dead, and the best thing he could do was get ready to fight! Whoooooooosh. Prago rushed forward, jumping out of the fighter. He turned back only to see dozens of rocks turn the fighter into nothing. Then, Prago glanced down, meeting his gaze with a fragile-looking girl with two long scarlet pigtails and a confident smirk on her face. However, her muscles would be the envy of any man, they weren't massive, but they were tough and strong as steel twigs. "Run if you want to live!" The girl exclaimed, pointing her hands at Prago. On her wrist was a black NEP - that was more than enough for Prago to realize what was going on here. "Should I deal with him?" Olax asked as black smoke began to cover his body. Tirana shook her head as she looked towards the ruins that were about a kilometer away from them. "No. The plan is still the same, just don't let him get away. Now, the situation has completely changed, because time is short for them, not us." Tirana said menacingly, pointing her sword at Adam. "Agh? What the hell is she talking about?" Ester said, puzzled, rubbing the back of her head and approaching Adam. Adam smiled as he waved his hand. "It's been a while, hasn't it?" Ester smiled bitterly as a flame reappeared in her eyes. "Yes. Back in battle, as it should be!" Ester exclaimed vigorously. Fred, who was watching them, shook his head. 'Damn, can't you be a little more serious? One day she's going to die because of this, it's bound to happen.' Fred pondered, preparing to fire, but something distracted him. Soon, everyone was paying attention, not just Fred, as several dozen shadows appeared from the far ruins. It only took them a few moments to realize what Tirana was talking about, for now, they had to run again, not fight. "We're leaving...?" Ester asked uncertainly, clutching her axe tightly. She was ready to fight, but not suicidal. Adam wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Silvana's harsh voice. 'Adam! Look at the top!' Silvana shouted. Adam immediately did, only to see three huge vortices located right above their territory. Lightning discharges were constantly appearing among the vortexes, powerful and aggressive, showing that it was electricity that was the main power here and not the wind. Then, the vortexes descended to the ground with bright flashes in the center, creating some objects on the ground with a powerful, dense energy that only artifacts could possess!
