The space rip formed by the detonation of the space exile bomb was bound by formless chains formed from the shackles of order, shrinking until it became nothing more than a black dot in the sky. Much to the disbelief of the shade leader, his plans had been foiled without achieving the desired effect.Right now, the shade leader dumbfoundedly staring at the spot where the space rip had been. Right now, there was only a mass of red-colored chains in that spot and the swirling black dot that had lost all its power but still tenaciously existed.After the shock of his failure finally settled in, the shade leader became manic and turned his unsettled gaze to Fabian before asking numbly, "How did you do it?""How were you able to close up that space, rip and ruin all my plans? I thought you had already used your shackles of order? You have already used it to deprive me of my powers, so you shouldn't be able to stop the space rip from opening up and devouring all of yo

The shade team leader escaped!Fabian stared at the disappearing figure of the shade team leader for a time. He saw the look of hatred in his eyes and the desire for vengeance hidden in his cold, dark eyes.For some reason, Fabian felt himself unconsciously shiver, but he caught himself in time and prevented this from happening. Finally, the figure of the shade leader disappeared completely.Fabian sighed deeply to himself. He was feeling very regretful for not being able to kill the shade team leader just now and allowing him to escape.After everything he had done to anticipate all his moves and counter them, the shade team leader was still able to successfully escape and now there was another enemy out there who hated him and was bound to seek vengeance on him."What the hell... let's just forget about it.""It's not like I have no enemies who want me dead out there. He would just be joining a long line of them. I can deal with him later.

The war lasted for more than five hours. In the end, the Aeth successfully drove the invading shades away from their planet. When the last invading ship retreated into the abyss door, it signaled the end of the invasion. But that was not where everything would end... Although the invasion had been stopped and the shades repelled, there was still the aftermath of the war to deal with. The shades had been expelled from planet Etherium but the abyss door was still open as it hung in the sky like a huge behemoth opening its massive jaws. Due to the large amount of energy required to open an abyss dorr, it was usually very stable. It would take a very long time for the energy of the abyss door to be depleted before it would close up. Unless the Aeth were willing to bear the risks and cost of forcefully closing the abyss door prematurely, they could only dispatch a troop of soldiers to guard it strictly in order to prevent anyone or anything from slipping t

It didn't take long for the aftermath of the war to be thoroughly dealt with. With the technology of a high-level civilization, the efficiency of the Aeth in handling matters was very high.Just after three hours since the shades were repelled, the battlefield had already been cleaned up and a detailed list of the casualties, along with the total costs incurred in the battle and the gains gotten from it was already fully calculated.After the battlefield was cleaned up, the Seven Kings Army gradually retreated from the area, leaving only a few warships and personnel to watch over the abyss door. They were to make sure that no shades or other parties would sneak in through the abyss door. At the same time, the Etherium was still put under lockdown, with no one being allowed to go in or out.Any operation that usually needed to be handled outside the Etherium was put on hold and most personnel outside who held relevant tasks apart from those with sensitive identit

In the dark void of space, silence pervaded the area without a single light in sight. This region of space was completely empty and devoid of anything except stray space rock that wandered aimlessly in the distance.Suddenly, there was a surge of energy, and a swirl appeared out of nowhere in space. A dark mass of energy with twinkling star lights opened up a hole in space from which a figure clumsily fell out. This figure appeared disheveled and haggard. Tumbling weightlessly in space, the figure spun a few cycles around before it was able to stabilize itself.Finally, as soon as this figure stopped spinning around, it raised its head to reveal Arran's handsome face.Right now, Arran floated in the empty void of space with his hair and clothes in a mess, but his eyes shone with a bright and deep glow. Although it looked like Arran had just been through a major ordeal, his face shone with excitement and his body shook occasionally due to his excitement.I
