The car had to be around two kilometers away from the area. It was still large and in sight from most of the city as it was a central point for a lot of the city.
A place where most of those that lived there were proud of. When visitors would come, people would usually show them the arena as one of the big landmarks.
Now, as those in the city looked at the arena—those that were driving, those that were leaving the arena, and those that just stared at it as the LED lights shined on the outside—they could see something almost glowing.
A large figure, with its claws dug in on the outside, its large wings slightly moving as the giant creature breathed in and out.
“What is that?” Clem said. “It looks like a dragon.” She quickly pointed to the man next to her, who had pulled the camera out and began the live stream immediately.
Several users had logged on, looking at the large creature that was currently there.
“Is that… a monster, a dragon, on Earth?” the cameraman said.
“It came from the AFC stadium… could it be, is it actually a type of Altered?” Clem asked, speaking to the viewers.
The comments were coming in one after the other. It was hard for them to believe that this really was an Altered. If it was, it certainly had to be one of the biggest ones in existence.
They had seen people change in size when using their Altered forms and full Altered transformations, but it was the first time for them to witness something so large in sight.
As the commenters were thinking this, Xin, as well as the others driving away in the car, thought the same thing.
“That’s his fully transformed Altered form! It’s so big!” Xin said.
“It’s ginormous, it could eat other Altereds up with ease,” Park added.
“Everyone!” Austin said with a strict voice, snapping everyone out of it. “Get ready!”
Austin could feel it, a sixth sense of his, that Harvor hadn’t just transformed into his full Altered form for no reason.
He wasn’t going to let them go.
The claws dug into the stadium, and then Harvor set off. Parts of the stadium crunched off, falling onto the ground below, and now a giant creature in the sky was flying over the city.
Due to its size, it was impossible to miss. People pointed up at it, pulled out their phones, and began to film as they stared at it in awe.
When the dragon went past them, a few seconds later, large gusts of wind swept them up.
In one of the cars, it also didn’t take long for a particular member of NIRV to see this.
“Harvor is showing his Altered form in public!” Rumper said. “What does that man think he’s doing?”
“Maybe he’s finally decided to act, sir,” his man on the side said.
“Something must have happened. It’s no wonder he didn’t arrive at the meeting. And where are our men in the first place? Shouldn’t they have sent a message, sent some type of report?”
“I will go investigate both of these matters for you, sir,” the man said as he got out of the car and started to walk toward the stadium. To get a full answer on what was going on, all they needed to do was find Stanley.
In the vehicle itself, Ice had already stepped heavily on the pedal. They were passing cars quite quickly left and right, and now they were on the highway heading across a large bridge that went over the river.
After the large bridge, around five kilometers more, and they would be out of the city and be on their way to Slough.
However, with this large creature flying toward them, even getting to Slough wouldn’t be the best decision.
“Hey, it’s catching up! That damned dragon is pretty fast!” Park shouted.
“How’s Gary?” Ice asked.
Xin took a look at him. She gently tapped the side of his face, but he still appeared to be completely out.
Daphne, who was in the car, was wondering if she should just jump out of the vehicle, but due to who she was, there was a good chance that Harvor would decide to chase her rather than Gary.
So she decided it was best for her to stay inside for now.
“If Gary is still out, then we need to make decisions ourselves!” Ice claimed. “Park, swap!”
Park didn’t have to be told twice as he quickly climbed over the seats and headed for the steering wheel.
Ice had swapped and now had moved toward the back where the others were.
“I don’t have much energy left, so I’m hoping you can carry me if I end up passing out,” Ice claimed as he had formed two spears made from ice in his hand.
He then hurled them right at Harvor. The spears were on course and fast, but as they hit Harvor’s large face, they just shattered, doing no damage as Harvor continued to fly closer and closer.
“That’s not going to be enough!” Austin said, looking around at anything. “Go closer to the side!” Austin shouted.
Park listened, and as he went to the side, Austin transformed, his arms reached out, and he snatched up a large parked vehicle.
He lifted it above his head and then hurled it with all of his strength.
The car spun through the air several times, but unlike the ice spears, this time, a strange gold mist surrounding Harvor’s body swirled around the car, moving it around its body to crash onto the ground and explode.
The car took a heavy turn as they had joined onto the bridge and were now going down it as fast as they could.
When joining the bridge, they could see Harvor fly up above. It was then they noticed that his wingspan was wide. If he flew where the bridge was present, then he would snap the wires holding the bridge.
Still, now he was directly following them from above, and there was no turning around.
“What do I do?” Park said.
“Just keep going!” This time, it was Jayden who spoke. “Keep going… there’s something that I can do… something that I have to do.”
