Long chapter
—-
After finishing everything that needed to be done, Ethan brought Micah and Ryan with him as they left the hidden territory of Silverwood and headed straight toward Central Magnolia.
He and Uncle Jed's group were moving in completely opposite directions. Uncle Jed's team was pushing south while Ethan led his small group north, the two sides gradually forming a wide arc that would eventually allow them to regroup later on.
Along Uncle Jed's route there were three remaining energy sphere sites, and Ethan's path also contained three of them. Aside from the one near Trunk Line that Uncle Jed's team was currently heading toward, the other locations were all positioned inside densely populated urban areas.
Before they separated, Ethan had given Uncle Jed a very clear instruction. Do not split the team. Stay together, concentrate your firepower, and destroy each site one at a time.
