The moment the soldier deposited the core in his hands, Lucien didn't hesitate for a second.
Without waiting for the soldier to finish explaining the situation, he launched himself from the parapet toward the city's interior.
The combined impulses catapulted him through the air at vertiginous speed.
He controlled each movement with millimetric precision, gliding through the air at great speed to maintain the most direct possible trajectory toward the center.
When he landed before the great door, he didn't hesitate to use his muscles to the maximum to shoot like lightning through the hallways.
Some unfortunate citizens found themselves pushed against the walls when Lucien passed by them like a contained hurricane. His wind impulses left a trail of flying things and people staggering as they fell after the tempest.
