Hearing Enigma's sharp cry, Varian ran without any hesitation. So did Sarah.

Varian's body powers enabled him to run faster than the wind as did Sarah's. Moreover, Enigma used gravity power to lighten their bodies as she ran beside them.

As a result, the ground nearly cracked apart as the three shot forward like a rocket.

In Varian's view, the surroundings seemed to be playing fast forward. In just a second, the hills passed by, the large valley receded into the distance, the distant lake was now a foot away and the landscape in front of him completely changed.

All this happened in a second. And before Varian could even ask Enigma why they had to run, he heard a loud bang from behind and the ground under his feet suddenly shook as a shockwave hit his back.

Varian staggered forward before balancing his body and continuing his run. Even though he didn't turn back, his lightning sense expanded and captured everything behind.

There were five natives in the location they ran from. But unlike any previous teams which mostly consisted of level 8s or low level 9s, four of these five members were mid level 9s. And the captain was a high level 9!

"Merciful Sword reporting, we found them at Xonos mountain, Perclus region." The Captain reported into his communication crystal.

An encrypted message arrived a second later.

"But I wish I could kill them my own stands..." The captain frowned at the order in frustration but thinking of something, his lips curled into a sadistic smile. "Chase!"

The team chased the invaders. Their speed was so high that a storm began in the area due to the harsh winds.

Even though they started a few seconds later, they quickly narrowed the distance with the invaders. In a few seconds at most, they'd catch up!

Varian realized the problem and enveloped the girls in his space power. The space around them distorted and they appeared two hundred miles away.

Previously, they were at the border of the Wilderness area and the Natives' kingdom. With this teleportation, they went back into the forest which was filled with many dangerous beasts.

The teleportation didn't help Varian for long. Even though he created more distance between them, it was narrowed in a blink.

Even when he tried teleporting twice or thrice, he remained in the sensing range of the hunting team.

This frustrated Varian and he decided to teleport continuously until he disappeared from their sensing range.

Varian, Sarah, and Sia's bodies blurred and they appeared a hundred miles away in the forest. They blurred again and were now a hundred miles farther. And again. Once they cross five hundred more miles, they'd be out of range.

Varian was excited and teleported again. As a result, they ended up under a giant tree that Varian's senses deemed safe before teleportation.

But the moment they appeared, a pair of red eyes opened on the green bark of the tree, and the green snake shot at them with lightning speed.

"What?!"

Feeling the peak level 9 aura from the snake, Varian's heart sank. He hurried and used teleportation on them once again.

He was fast, but the snake was faster.

As the space around them distorted and they were about to teleport, the snake's fangs reached Varian.

Varian put up a last-minute defense of lightning and ice walls that instantly crumbled in front of the snake's power.

At that last moment, two walls of light and darkness stood in front of Varian. Even they only lasted a moment before they were crushed.

Thankfully, the small time period these defenses bought gave them the time to finish the teleportation.

So, when the snake bit tightly with the intent to kill, it only found empty air. This greatly enraged the snake.

Its two-meter body suddenly swelled into a length greater than an anaconda. The green snake enveloped the giant tree and hissed into the air.

"HISS!"

The birds froze in the air out of fear and all the beasts on the ground stopped moving. Even the tree leaves stopped rustling. Everything and everyone in the surrounding hundred miles froze.

"Damn this forest!" Appearing two hundred miles away within a row of blue trees, Varian cursed.

Five auras locked onto them and were chasing them at full speed. The natives were about to lose them but thanks to the Green Snake's fiasco, they were able to close the distance with them.

With dangerous beasts hiding from his senses lurking all over the forest, Varian couldn't afford random teleportations.

So, the only choice was to run with caution.

The hunting team didn't have that problem. They literally hunt in the forest—that's their usual job. Based on their familiarity with the forest, they had the safest and shortest route to Varian.

And by now, other professional teams started arriving.

"Shadow Hunters, reporting."

"Smiling Butchers, reporting."

"…"

"…"

"Purity Swords, reporting."

The small team of five was quickly joined by nine more teams, pushing the total number to fifty.

These fifty level 9s had eight high level 9s and forty five mid level 9s. There were even two peak level 9s!

This formation would've been useless in front of other native teams because of their Sovereigns but for Varian's team, it was lethal.

Dozens of colorful attacks shot into the air and chased after Varian's team. Varian's trio used all their divine paths and sped up the best they could.

But the distance continued to shrink.

In the end, Varian even abandoned caution and started continuous teleportation. Even Enigma used her artifact and teleported them.

But to their horror, the natives were able to learn his location instantly, as if they had messengers everywhere in the forest.

So, the chase continued in the dense, colorful forest filled with dangerous beasts.

More than once, Varian wanted to use the sliver powers and kill them all—but the problem was that the hunting teams weren't together.

They acted in perfect coordination and acted as a single unit, but the distance between them was too big.

Firstly, to use the sliver power, he needed to concentrate and preferably, stand still. And if he used the sliver powers and killed one team, he wouldn't be able to immediately recharge another sliver attack for another team.

The trees in the surroundings continued to shrink as Varian's trio ran.

The forest quickly turned into a swap and the swamp turned into plain grasslands. And they soon ran to the edge of the grasslands, following a river. The river flowed down the cliff, creating a beautiful waterfall. Other than beautiful flower beds, and exotic plants, there wasn't a single beast here.

And that's exactly why Varian had an ominous premonition. Especially because of the cliff. He couldn't see anything below the cliff due to dense white fog.

"We should try to get out her—"

The sky lit up with hundreds of attacks.

Fire roses, ice lilies, lightning leaves, and earthen sticks. Following those attacks were the bulky body awakeners from the natives.

"Shit." Only then did Varian realize what these teams were planning. They weren't planning to kill them. At least not directly. If that was. the plan, they could've started some serious attacks before.

Instead, the chasing teams used their attacks and guided them in a certain direction and brought them to this place.

Varian's guess was spot on. The Matriarch's order was to push them to the Mad Zone.

Even though the Natives regretted missing the chance of killing the invaders with their own hands, they too liked the idea of throwing these invaders into that terrible zone.

"Die!"

"Hahaha!"

"Taste despair, bitches!"

With roaring laughter, the teams attacked the foreigners with full strength.

Sarah, Enigma, and Varian put up their defenses. But hundreds of attacks rained down on them and blasted them toward the edge of the cliff.

Varian grabbed Sarah and Enigma's sleeves and was about to teleport when the space around him solidified and his mind was attacked. "Fuck!"

Enigma's attempts to teleport them were also sabotaged.

Under the bloodthirsty gaze of the invaders, more attacks hit the trio and shot them off the cliff.
