After having most of his questions answered, Emery said his goodbye and proceeded to move all the survivors who were already gathered on the Eastern base to the main base.
With the number of survivors that the Eastern forwarding base has managed to gather, Emery sadly has to split them into two groups. All the women, children, and the old would go to the main base through his portal, while the strong men would go by foot escorted by Roran's squad.
Meanwhile, Julian would stay at the Eastern base for another day, waiting for the last bit of incoming survivors.

By the time the seventh day arrived, Emery had returned to the North forwarding base. Upon his arrival at the location, he found that nearly 400,000 more survivors had gathered in the settlement with most of the acolytes having returned as planned.
The three groups of 6 seemed to have been waiting for him, with Klea swiftly pounced at him the moment she saw him. It was obvious that she was delighted to see him again.
"Aaahhh I am smelly aren't I?... I really could use a shower.. It was such a dirty place, those nests."
"Me too!" Annara chimed in, and the two found a place inside the settlement to clean up.
Among them, there was also Arcana who had been waiting in irritation. At this time, the kid-looking acolyte had only managed to reach half of his targeted number of points and thus couldn't wait to receive Emery's get-go order to clear the shrine which had obviously been crowded with Abyss creatures.
"Commander, The shrine is ready… Let's clean it up! Let me do it.. please!"
Per Emery's instruction, Arcana had trapped tens of thousands of Abyss creatures inside the peculiar Abyss nest, and with the fact that there was not much time left before the end of the mid-test, Emery finally instructed all acolytes who still needed more points to enter the shrine with Arcana while those who already had sufficient points to continue taking care of the survivors.
As for Emery, as soon as he was done instructing them, he went ahead and once again took a rest to ease his mental exhaustion. At the same time, he also made use of the opportunity to refill his depleted Spirit Pool.
The constant, non-stop channeling of the space magic took a toll on him, but fortunately, it also helped him push the boundaries of undertaking the darkness element, specifically the Law of Space.
When he was done, once again Emery proceeded to use [Spatial Gate] to continue his task of transporting the remaining survivors.
This time, however, he stumbled across a horde of Abyss creatures on the second opening of his Spatial Gate. The unexpected horde of Abyss creatures caught Emery and the survivors off guard, and thus chaos struck.
Tens of thousands of survivors who had just crossed the portal were screaming in panic, hundreds of them who were holding projectile weapons started to open fire at the incoming creatures.
Tratatata Tratatata Tarattata
With the chaos happening, Emery couldn't afford to close the Spatial Gate as people turned and ran back towards the portal, trying to return to safety's embrace. This only made the situation worse and made both Emery's hands occupied keeping the Spatial Gate open.
Fortunately this time, Emery had his 6 team members helping him.
A dozen shadow figures stood in the front line shooting arrows, while a red-haired girl created a wall of dark flames. At the same time, two fierce figures dashed into the ocean of Abyss creatures, one with a golden glaive and another with a huge ax.
It took a moment for Atlas and Klea to join the fray and unleashed their powerful spells that burn and blast the incoming creature to the point of leaving a massive crater on the yellow plains
And thus, the six of them swiftly annihilated all the hordes of Abyss creatures that came at them with ease. Thanks for their help, he could focus on channeling his [Spatial Gate], making the delivery of the remaining survivors much safer and faster.
Now that Emery has unsummoned all of his [Mineralized Warriors], with a larger Spirit Pool he could use, Emery was able to create an even bigger portal, allowing more people to go through in less time.
Within the next day, Emery moved around from the north base, back to the east, and then to the west again.
On the ninth day, Emery and his platoon 3 had gathered a total of 2.5 million people within the main base. There were reports of dozens of settlements that refused to evacuate, but the platoon still managed to get the number of survivors that they were aiming for.
As he looked at the overcrowded outpost and compared it with the number of survivors still left on the data, Emery hoped that the other platoons managed to save as many survivors as he and his platoon did, if perhaps not more.
"We are looking at 250,000 extra points in front of us," Annara said in astonishment as she looked at the number. To tell the truth, she did not expect that platoon 3 would be able to achieve such a thing, but here they were.
"The success rate was higher than expected," the half-machine acolyte shortly remarked. "81%."
As of this moment, most of the acolytes in their platoon were still busy handling the incoming survivors. Even so, most of them were elated by the result they managed to achieve.
Now, they only needed to wait another day and a half to finally pass their mid-test.
[Personal Points Ranking]

Since Emery had not done anything apart from moving as many survivors as he could as fast as possible these last two days, his personal points ranking had fallen a few ranks. Such a result was to be expected, and if he were to be honest, he was not really that concerned about it at this point.
However, before Emery could appreciate the fruit of their labor, he suddenly felt a strange, overwhelming aura violently rushing from the north. Almost immediately after, the rush of aura was followed by heavy tremors that shook a large area of the ground he and his friends were standing on.
The aura was felt by all the other acolytes, and made Roran and Julian who had arrived at the base immediately approach him.
"Roran, do you know what this is?" Emery quickly asked the Harlight prince, but Roran shook his head with a doubtful expression.
A few minutes later, Emery received messages from Trish who was still on the frontline with her squad.
[Commander, there are an increasing number of Abyss creature hordes moving across the western plains]
Not even quite finished reporting the message to the other, a similar message came from Anas and also Rayne who were currently in the east and in the north respectively.
It was safe to say that the previous tremors brought the hordes out and just increased the dangerous level of the mid test a few folds.
"We need to fasten the evacuation and prepare for battle!" Emery quickly said
However, at the same time, Emery received a message on his device.
[You are being called upon for an Urgent mission to the restricted area. Will you accept?]
