"Quick, ascend now! It's a high-level demon! It's a high-level demon!"
After detecting unusual movements in the forest, the other crew members were still confused about what was happening, but the captain of the Escort Ship reacted first and immediately ordered the crew to ascend because such a disturbance sure signified a high-level demon!
Indeed, one does not become captain of a ship by being mediocre; from reactions to judgments, this captain was spot on.
This time, they truly had stirred up a hornet's nest, provoking trouble they shouldn't have!
Though the captain reacted quickly, the warship could not move as fast as he did; even as the crew immediately started to lift the warship upon receiving the orders, the trees that had collapsed in swathes had already spread close by, followed by a dark shadow leaping from the forest into midair, heading straight for the Escort Ship!
