"Follow them! This is going to change history," Tarron shouted, scrambling to get into a car with his assistants and speeding after the group of people.
Over in the capital of Terya, Gary and Milo had fled to the middle of the city with what remained of their men, hastily setting up a defensive line.
Milo looked at Gary in terror. "What do we do now?"
"What do you think?" Gary spat, nearly exploding with rage and panic. "I'm done here! It's your call now."
Michael was already dead, and the Church of Holy Illuminati had been defeated fair and square. The holy warriors and church militia knights had retreated halfway, and there was no way Gary was staying to die.
Gary barked out an order and fled toward the east with the remaining members of the Scorpion Army.
Milo was left alone in the city, unable to believe what had just happened.
How could a force as powerful as the Church of Holy Illuminati have lost? Michael, someone of the Super Sanctuary level and even armed with a divine weapon, had died.
What was he going to do now?
Milo was overwhelmed with terror.
The Church of Holy Illuminati could retreat, and Gary could flee as well. They were not Teryan and could very well leave.
But what about Milo? He was Teryan born, and there was nowhere he could run to.
There were barely ten thousand defense soldiers left, and Milo hardly thought that they would be capable of holding their own.
Amidst a fit of terror, Milo began frantically dialing the numbers of multiple foreign armed forces and promising them the world.
As long as they said yes, Milo was more than happy to give them control over a portion of the country. More importantly, he would be able to stay alive.
His only hope was in these armed forces now.
Milo paced about in the presidential office, shaking with nerves and panic.
Hours had passed, and he had not gotten a single reply.
Finally, the phone on the table rang.
Milo grabbed it at once, picking it up with glee.
