"We absolutely can't let them take the resources here, as it's likely some high-quality ore materials."
'Now!' Danzo internally roared.
Lightning exploded from his body as he shot forward.
Joyan slammed both hands down.
'Seal them!'
Massive brown crystalline walls surged upward, trying to isolate Rudrean and Aelira.
Ruben raised his hand. 'Tracking volley!'
Dozens of sharp blue projectiles formed and locked onto Rudrean.
Yufania's voice followed, calm but sharp. 'I'll distort their senses.'
Pink ripples spread across the cavern, bending perception and warping distances.
Jolina rushed low. 'I'll break their stance!'
Aelira smiled.
"They're serious."
Rudrean glanced once.
"They're coordinated. Don't underestimate."
Then everything collided.
The projectiles arrived first.
Rudrean shifted slightly.
One step.
Half turn.
The entire volley missed in an absurd way, but what they couldn't see was the complex flow of wind that redirected them.
