Meanwhile—
Ethan and his crew were already racing full-speed toward the Citadel of the Fallen Angels, the stronghold of the Angel of Death. And they'd done it—they'd secured the magic orb that represented the Angel of Death's power, one of the legendary Ten Orbs.
Without wasting a second, they took off again.
Their next targets? The domains of the remaining three Overlord-class powerhouses.
Time was everything now, and they were moving fast.
Sure, each of those territories was guarded by massive armies of regular troops, but to Ethan and his team, those forces might as well have been made of paper.
At this point, they were so powerful that even going head-to-head with the Overlords themselves wouldn't necessarily mean defeat. And since they were pulling off sneak attacks instead of frontal assaults?
It was practically a guaranteed win.
