With its leader gone, the rest of the birds fled in different directions. The ability users killed as many as they could, but at the same time many escaped.
After the battle was over, the highway was littered with corpses of mutated birds.
There were many injured people this time. Leo and the other ability users quickly started healing the injured.
Under Major Kyle's instructions, the corpses of the mutated birds were cut open to check for energy stones. Many of them were low-level mutated birds without energy stones, but they did find quite a few energy stones among some mid-level mutated birds. The energy stones of the mid-level mutated birds were the size of a pea, but the energy stone inside the leader, the high-level mutated bird, was the size of a marble and contained strong energy.
Major Kyle distributed the energy stones among the ability users and gave the high-level energy stone to Sylas.
