Once the folks got into the spaceship, they carried on running. No time to waste. They were well-aware of the situation - if Ye Chong got into anything, they would be that part of it too. Even though most of them came only under Ye Chong's threat, they worked hard, striving to help out their fallen ally, including the little boy who was biting his lips stonily.
”Everyone. Get ready in your positions,” commanded the little boy. ”Sister Bing, the main processor.” And she ran to the processor with her maximum speed, as the stack of afterimages traced her sprint. She then placed little boy in front of the main processor.
The little boy then quickly booted the system, while the remaining folks got to their steerings.
”Check-ups.”
”All air ventilation system: normal.”
”Engine system: operational.”
”Detection system: operational.”
He received the few notifications on the screen, as his fingers clumsily fiddled the program.
”Spaceship Pre-departure Program: Activated.”
”Calculating energy remained. Performing optimized calculation. System is ready to take off.”
The last task before taking off had been completed promptly. Everyone was concentrated in holding their steerings, as taking off could get as complicated as one could imagine a plane would do. It required coordination across the ship. The tasks had been completed flawlessly thus far. So it would be fine to take off.
”Next-”
*Beep*
*Beep*
”Warning.”
That was not a good word to hear.
”Warning. Remaining Energy Level is less than 8%. Remaining Energy: Insufficient. Remaining Energy: Insufficient. Request unable to be completed,” said the angelic-voiced system.
Rui Bing's face was drained.

Ye Chong was catching his breath. The air filled with Night Enchantment was slightly sweet, yet it scorched his throat every time he breathed. Sweat rolled over his bloody body. He was breathing heavily. His expression was still, yet there was blood at corner of his lips, along with scratches over his body. People were amazed by his vitality - that was the only they could do anyway as they were blocked off by the mist of Night Enchantment.
”I have an idea!” Right when they felt helpless of the situation, a genius gave an idea, ”Throw your weapons at him!”
Oh no.
Ye Chong recognized the voice of that mastermind! The voice was the assassin's. He quickly reacted with a tumble on the ground right after the statement was shouted.
He got to run, he got to run fast.
But his stamina was below the safe level and he was surrounded by a swarm of attackers. He suspected if he could last even a minute if they launched their attacks again...
The villagers started lobbing their weapons at Ye Chong. Sharp clinks could be heard all over the place as the weapons showered upon the ground.
Ye Chong pressed the ground with both his hands and knees, rolled and bounced off like a pinball.
Weapons penetrated the sandy ground.
Ye Chong was glad he acted fast or he would have been turned into a dead porcupine.
Ye Chong made another tumble to reposition himself and discerned that one blank spot, he tossed his weapon that flew through the very gap.
