:::[Third Person POV]:::

The next day, everyone prepared themselves mentally and physically to move to the hidden area.

"Are you ready?" Adam asked, looking at the girls.

Even though a lot of issues that needed to be discussed and dealt with were still put on hold, it was already a good thing that there was a way out of this critical situation.

It was not often that a group of people in the same position as Adam and the girls get this lucky, looking back at the people who were supposed to use the ship in the first place.

Such luck was indeed unbelievable, but it was also the result of Adam's efforts and the presence of certain individuals among the group.

However, Adam was lost in his thoughts the whole night, and even though he didn't appear to be worried about his parents or anything else, one would certainly think that he had become insane if they took a peek at what he was thinking about. He had already thought about almost a thousand scenarios and realistic strategies to deal with them all.

Nevertheless, everything needed to have a certain balance and Adam had a hard time finding this balance. Imagination was indeed a useful tool, but it didn't mean that everything Adam thought about was the undeniable truth.

He didn't have such ability yet, so overthinking things that were likely to happen in the future made him miss things that were already happening in front of him.

"Yes, I am ready," Zax replied to Adam's question, a look of determination appearing on her face.

She was wearing Cristal's suit as Adam instructed since everyone else could use their own ability to float.

Liu just nodded and didn't say anything. After what Adam said yesterday, it seemed like she was more conscious of him. Even though she calmed down, controlling her emotional instability caused by the thoughts related to her father, she no longer knew how to deal with Adam.

Both of them agreed that it was not the time to discuss this matter, but Adam was still as ignorant about people's feelings as always, mostly women's, and he didn't really understand why Liu asked that question the night before.

"Let's go already," Blanca said, "we have already made sure of everything at least three times, didn't we?"

"I see," Adam said, knowing that everyone seemed to have understood what they had to do. "Let's go."

The group finally left the little house and began to travel through the rocky area.

Adam already made sure that everyone understood the hand signals when needed, and he also explained to Zax and Liu that they needed to avoid fighting monsters for as long as it was possible.

The rocky area had a lot of narrow pathways where they could sneak through without being detected by monsters, but it was also dangerous, as they were moving in groups and fighting monsters in such a place would be tricky.

Fortunately, Adam's power covered an area of twenty meters and with Cristal's superior scanning ability, he could take care of the monsters before they were even aware of the group's presence.

Adam was completely focused on this task, making sure that they reached their goal successfully by finding the best route to follow, so he asked Liu and Blanca to keep an eye on the immediate surrounding and Zax, just in case he missed something.

Everyone was quiet during the whole process and used their senses to their limit.

'We didn't encounter as many monsters as I expected,' Liu thought, and it was a good thing, but she couldn't help but stare at the man in front of her. She was convinced that he was making sure that everything went smoothly. As she thought about that, a lonely smile appeared for a split second on her face.

Behind Liu, there was Zax, and she was also observing the two dependable people in front of her. Something she didn't expect happened the night before, and at first, she was extremely worried, thinking back about the tense atmosphere between Adam and Liu.

'I am glad that they could swallow their pride at times like that,' Zax thought, 'Adam always continues to amaze me, but he is also stupid. He didn't even notice… Well, there was no way for him to know, and I am sure that miss Liu didn't want him to know too.'

The last person who followed from the back was Blanca, and Adam asked her to watch their back because his trusted in her increased.

'He is always good at handling things when it comes to fighting monsters,' Blanca thought, knowing that it was Adam who was dealing with the monsters without letting them get closer to the group. 'I don't know about his ability to deal with other people though. Liu is supposed to be his love isn't she? Why does he keep denying it though? Well, I am not good at it myself…

Adam raised his hand and everyone halted. He could observe a group of monsters ahead, and it seemed like they didn't intend to leave the area soon.

Liu and Blanca used their power to float, so they were consuming a lot of strength even though they were not fighting, that was why the group moved at a very quick pace, to not waste time and energy.

Adam gestured to the others to not make any noise, mostly because only he and Zax wore the helmets that could keep their voice from leaking out.

The girls quickly understood his instructions and hide behind the boulders in the area.

They still had a few meters to go before they reached the wall of the city, and Adam was as careful as before, making sure that he didn't miss anything that could lead to failure.

After that, Adam moved slowly forward until he was sure that all of the monsters were within his range of attack.

'One, two… twelve.' Adam began to count the monsters and made sure that he didn't miss one.

After that twelve black orbs materialized around him and then took the form of extremely pointy sticks.

Swoosh!

The monsters didn't even understand what was happening to them. Adam controlled the black sticks with his thought and they pierced the monsters' heads and chests, making sure that they died instantly.

After that, Adam stayed immobile for a few seconds before gesturing to the girls that it was time to move.

The monsters that Adam just killed consisted of giant wolves and some goblins were riding on top of them.

'These monsters keep getting more intelligent as time passes…' Adam thought, looking at the dead monsters as they continued to move forward. 'In the long term, this is not a good thing… If those monsters reached humans' intelligence, they would be able to control the primordial particles too, and humans would be at a great disadvantage…'

Everyone followed Adam, they already know that he would still do everything by himself even though everyone was already there.

'He is a lot stronger than before,' Liu thought, looking at the dead monsters. 'What happened? How did he grow this much power in such a short time?...'

p However, she knew that it was a good thing, and she also remembered what Blanca said. Liu was a prideful woman, and when Blanca lectured her a bit, she felt a little bit frustrated and embarrassed. Still, she recognized that her way of thinking would do any good for the group, and when she calmed down, she realized that Blanca was right.

Nevertheless, she also began to wonder about Blanca and what happened between her and Adam.

With everyone in the group having different thoughts in their mind, the trip continued and they were nearing the city's wall.

This was the trickiest step in their plan because there was an open space between the rocky area and the wall.

They had to cross this area to reach the hole that Adam made, but the timing of their activities needed to be perfect. In other words, they needed to make sure that they weren't spotted even though they were moving in a group, at least that was the best outcome that they wished for.

But they had to face the reality, which was more tricky.

Adam observed the top of the wall and the surrounding, but as expected there were a few monsters.

It seemed like it was unavoidable that they had to fight the monsters, so from there, the most important factor was speed.

The hidden area was more or less a fortress, and it could protect them from the monsters, at least unlit they manage to repair the ship, or so Adam concluded.

Consequently, they needed to make sure that they reached this area and run from the monsters because now that they were moving in a group, they couldn't move as stealthily as before.

'Let's do this,' Adam thought.
