At the instant of the explosion, Leia had seen with her own eyes that Lin Dong's figure had been swallowed by the energy. He had not emerged.
The power of the Crystal Core Bomb had exceeded her expectations.
Several students wept with joy and hurried over.
"Teacher, I think we succeeded!"

"B-But why?"
