Bab 1707: A Sudden Trouble

"I'm assuming what sensed you are not beasts?" Alex asked.

The old man frowned, pulling up his medallion. "I don't want to risk spreading my spirit sense to see if they're beasts and humans," he said. "None of my formations returned warned me of any human or ships flying over us, so it couldn't be…"

He slowed down a bit, his face darkening even further. "Dammit!" he cried out all of a sudden. 

"W-what?" Alex asked. He was slightly scared by the old man's outburst. 

"Two of my warning formations are down on the other side," the old man said.

"You don't get notified when they're down?" Alex asked the old man.

"I'm supposed to, but I didn't receive any. It happens from time to time." The old man sighed and turned toward Alex. "What do we do now? Fight?"

"Are you sure they're coming this way?" Alex asked.

The old man checked the medallion again.
