Just as Cael bent his knees to dash forward and strike first, another notification popped up.
[Enemy team has surrendered.]
For a moment, silence took over the arena.
Cael froze mid-step, blinking in confusion.
Leila lowered her staff slowly, looking surprised.
Kristoff let out a small sigh, shaking his head.
"That was… fast."
Xel'Shaar simply stood silently by Adam's side, as though it didn't surprise him at all.
Adam's gaze didn't waver.
His eyes locked onto the Thunderstrike Alliance, who stood there with pale faces.
Their leader raised both hands in surrender, avoiding Adam's eyes.
"Lost the will before even trying..."
Adam muttered under his breath in disappointment.
Such people would not serve much use when the retaliation of Yxthar comes.
A few moments later, the system spoke again.
[Congratulations. You have won the first round.]
[You will be teleported back to the waiting lobby shortly.]
Cael clicked his tongue in annoyance.
