In an abandoned factory on the northern side of Churron, Caspian landed safely as well. He folded up his parachute before walking to the factory. Everyone else followed behind him.
Most of the fighters had been killed, and only a couple dozen people were left. Avon and several medics quickly went over to Aria and the others to give them emergency treatment.
Laina was extremely saddened by the sight of the severe injuries suffered by Aria and the others.
Most of the Jessop family's fighters were either dead or injured, while the others had run away in all directions. When Lacey and her husband and son saw this, they knew that they were totally done for.
However, there was nowhere they could run away to as there were paratroopers everywhere. How were they supposed to escape this place? If they attempted it, they would surely be killed by Caspian's men.
Caspian headed directly toward the factory. Sherry saw him. He was surrounded by his men and appeared to be mighty and powerful.
Although it had been more than twenty years since Sherry had last seen him, she recognized him at first glance. Perhaps this was because of the connection between mother and son related to each other by blood.
Caspian was no longer a baby in her arms but instead had become the Diatoranian God of War whose reputation traveled the seas. Also, he came with his troops to rescue her when she was in grave danger.
Upon seeing this, Sherry felt like she was in a dream.
Caspian also felt emotional upon seeing everyone in the factory. He noticed Sherry too. Although this was the first time they had met, he could sense that Sherry was his biological mother.
Caspian's thoughts had always been preoccupied with the identity of his parents. He had succeeded in finding his biological father and could be reunited with his mother now. This made him feel unspeakable emotions.
Looking at the wrinkles on Sherry's face, it was obvious that she had suffered after leaving the Massey family.
Miranda was emotional upon seeing Caspian. The moment she saw him, she finally felt relieved as she knew that he could resolve everything.
Cecilia, on the other hand, had only heard of Caspian's name and had never met him before. When she saw him come over, surrounded by a group of people, she could be certain that this was the famous Diatoranian God of War. He was Caspian Lynch, who was also her brother!
"Mom, is that mighty-looking man Caspian, my brother?" Cecilia said excitedly.
"Yes, he is!" Sherry nodded, her eyes rimmed with moisture. She noticed his resemblance with a younger Logan.
"He's so cool!" Cecilia said, delighted.
The Jessops were surprised to see Caspian come over. At this moment, they finally believed that Sherry was Caspian's mother.
"Mom, Caspian's here! We're done for!" Blake wailed.
"D-Don't panic. We still have a chance. Your grandpa has his ways, and he can surely save us. Perhaps he's already convinced the King." Lacey was so nervous that she struggled with saying a coherent sentence.
At this moment, she was more terrified than everyone else.
"When will Jerry get back to us, darling? If we wait for a second longer, we'll die!" Fergus was panicked as well.
"When His Majesty learns about this, he'll let us go thanks to our relationship with my father, so don't worry," Lacey said, putting up a pretense of calmness.
