"Yes, sir!"
After that, the three thousand Lightning Legion girls hesitated no longer and began to act according to Nalant's orders. Some of the girls fully empowered their innate abilities, and funnel-shaped whirlwinds gradually appeared in the sky.
As the whirlwinds formed, the branches and leaves of the surrounding forest were blown into a rustling clamor, while the woods in the distance that had already been set alight began to spread and link together at an extremely rapid speed.
"Quick, all of you, run that way! There's a huge open space up ahead. As long as we get out, that Nalant won't be able to do anything to us!"
Although the squad captains could not see the whirlwinds, they could sense that the whirlwinds were about to begin wreaking havoc.
Clinging to a fluke of hope, they charged madly toward the road ahead.
In their view, as long as they could escape this first encirclement, they should be able to shake off Nalant's pursuit.
After all, in front of this forest was an open stretch dozens of miles wide.
Of course, regardless of whether Nalant could catch up to them afterward, the first thing they had to be certain of was whether they could run out of this first encirclement.
Originally, judging by the blaze, it would still have taken quite some time before the flames linked together.
But with the appearance of the funnel whirlwinds of the tornadoes, the fire that had already grown larger seemed to have taken a stimulant, rising higher at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In less than a short thirty seconds, almost all the fire points had linked together.
And with the fire points linked together, this also meant that the first wave of flame whirlwinds could enter the stage of devastation.
