On the other side of the chamber, Cassian's teeth clenched violently as the final traces of Crypian's figure vanished completely into the swirling blue transportation stream.
The unstable portal distorted heavily for a few moments, ripples of mana spreading outward across the underground chamber like waves striking stone, yet despite that, the commander did not hesitate even slightly.
The instant Crypian disappeared, Cassian moved.
His armored body crossed the chamber in a single explosive step before appearing directly before the transportation gate.
The violent pressure radiating from him caused the loose debris across the floor to tremble beneath his boots as he immediately attempted to step into the portal after him.
However….The moment his foot touched the edge of the transportation stream, an invisible force erupted from the gate itself.
Boom!
Cassian was forced backward several steps as the unstable mana violently rejected his entry.
