Chapter 493: 493: Destruction of Ethan

As the veteran team observed Caleb's creation of the empty energy ball, they launched into a tirade of mockery that was cutting and merciless. "What's this? A light show to entertain us before your end?" the leader jeered, his voice dripping with scorn. "Did you pick up that trick in a circus, Earthling?"

Another team member joined in, their words sharp and demeaning, "Look at him, playing with a little ball of light as if it's going to save him. It's like watching a child pretending his toy can fend off a storm."

The ridicule intensified, each member of the veteran team taking turns to deride Caleb's actions. "Is this your grand plan? Did you really think such a pathetic display would do anything against our combined might?" one sneered, the others laughing cruelly.
