When Albert was following the invisible lines that were made by Ahab, he was watching his clones because getting caught, which is what made him terrified, because if they got caught by the concilium or the Quegz, it will be game over for Dante and Aitor in their attempts to free the continent, so Albert took this as his greatest duty as if the future of the weeping skull is between his hands.
So he stayed determined, kept giving new commands for his clones sush as changing directions, stopping at their places doing nothing and he went up to many very diabolical extends such as making them change their customs, into something like the people he have seen earlier (the Quegz) in Ahab's pocket dimension by making them wear white cloaks with six black lines.
And list goes even further such as making them piss in open fields completely naked or making some of them become a live mustard gas bomb so that if anyone hot a little too close they will just self destruct themselves.
And after running for more than 6000 kilometres at a speed that was a few times faster than sound just so it doesn't become loud enough for it to make a lot of sounds and still fast enough, Albert also made a feild around him that completely silences sound that is resulting from him travelling this fast, as for the question, "if he got a feild that stops or reduces sound why is he travelling slowly?"
Short answer is that he doesn't want to look suspicious for the continent scanners that scan the continent acording to physical movements, like if he was moving ten times faster than sound then that will be very suspicious because very few who can move this fast, so the scanners will keep an eye for him.
But what he didn't know was that Ahab wasn't just giving him an invisible line to follow, Ahab have also kept that possibility in his mind and decided to do all that is in his might to make a sheild that completely hides physical presence and barely hides the spiritual presence of himself, the child and Albert.(by the way, Ahab was activating that sheild ever since Albert started running).
Finally after an hour and fourty minutes of constant running, Albert have finally made it to the headquarters because he noticed a big dot that stops the invisible line, Ahab then channels into his mind:
"(Under, ground, is, the, hide, out, you, call, them, make, large, element, wave, aim, it, below, they, feel, danger, they, come, out)" Albert replied:
"I don't know about you but the way you described it wasn't that good at the end because of the danger part but here we go."
Albert then gathered all he had left from his stamina and made powerful element wave that was directly aimed to the ground, Albert didn't feel much was happening but after a few minutes, Albert felt something worng with the air as if someone was watching him but he couldn't prove it or tell from where it's starring so he said:
"Ahab you would make a very great help if you raised your head because i can feel someone watching us, and mostly he could be of your followers."
Ahab without hesitation barely raised his head and after a few seconds, two individuals have came out of the shortcut, and they were Dante and Aitor, they both were in lost words and actions except that they have said:
"Albert?!?!" In the same time, and Ahab have made a psychic wave saying:
"(Let, him, in, he, is, on, our, side.)" So they did as how Ahab have said and rushed Ahab into the medical section, the Medical experts started to get in shape, ready for bringing Ahab back and all the four have left the medical section, the situation was so awkward to a very severe length because Dante and Aitor's past with Albert in specific was purely enemies, there was no good, so Dante decided to break the silence and said:
"The wound, your left hand, it seems like it's a very recent one." Albert replied:
"It is, because i had to cut my hand into several hundred pieces and added a small fragment of my soul to each one of these hands just to turn them into perfect copies of myself, i then sent them in different directions and made them unnatural and as confusing as much as i can just to mislead anyone who was trying to track me down." Aitor replied:
"Nice strategy, but have counted the physical and spiritual scanners? Who will track everyone of those clones down and sooner or later they will reach to us?"
"I tried all i can, i even ran at low speeds just to not raise attention, however i felt something was covering up on me, it was mostly Ahab because he was also capable of guiding me all the way through the continent." Aitor replied:
"So you let a man who suffering such a severe wound in his face to also help you make a retreat did you?" And here Frektalyes pulled out of nowhere and said:
"Mind i remind you that he was running away from the fucking conclium itself and was also being chased down by the Quegz too, not to mention that Ahab have also slowed him down to pick the orphan child over there, so the conclusion is that Ahab had to do something to help especially that Albert was carrying both of them with lost hand..."
Aitor was silenced for a moment and said:
"Fine, i will let it pass." Nikolas then asked:
"And who is that orphan over there?" Frektalyes answerd:
"Ahab's adopted child, disciple, and the one to inherit being as effective in battle as Ahab is,...hopefully."
"Is there anything special about him?"
"Nothing so far, he just witnessed his parents die from a corrupted element being at night around three months ago and that's it." Dante then said:
"Ok can we juststay quite for a moment and address the elephant in the room? Which is how the fuck are you standing with us, Frektalyes? Like shouldn't you be in Ahab's mind because he is very weak right now?"
"Well guess what, he channelled psychic waves into the healers minds and demanded him to clear the brain first and pump him with as much medicine and painkillers just to be barely able to call out for me to put him in a cacoon that was made by me to heal in a much more complex and better way." Nikolas replied:
"That maniac will never fail to make me say what the fuck did i just hear." Dante replied:
"I know right?" Frektalyes then said:
"But the thing is that the the claw that harmed him has fucked up his abilities to use element properly and absorb the neutral element, and so for that, he will stay in the cocoon for around thirty days, but don't worry yall, i am still here, even though i am as weak as a basic human but ehh, at least I, someone who have been around Ahab ever since he was an infant will be here as his voice." Aitor replied:
"Well i guess that's better than nothing..."
"Anyway, get to sleep yall it's very late now and Albert, let me guide you where you will be sleeping."
