As soon as they reached the designated spot, Theo ignored all the desperate people and asked Felix to start.
"Stop those who are crying out loud. We're on a tight schedule! And we don't have enough personnel to handle this!" Felix shouted. Obviously, the people didn't trust them that much so they didn't make a single move despite following Felix's command to move to the designated position. After all, they didn't want to hurt those desperate civilians.
That was why Felix continued, "I am from the local group, Ending Shal. We stumbled upon you a few hours ago and saw that you seemed to have been like this for at least two days. Because we're a small group, we don't have enough provisions for handling so many of you.
"Luckily, there is a path that we can cross from this place to a weird place that seems to be connected to the other side. I know that you don't trust us since we're strangers, but this might be the last chance for you to survive.
"If you want to help us move hundreds if not millions of people, please raise your hands. I'll talk about our plans with you."
When they heard Felix's explanation, it made sense. They had been teleported to the other sides where none of them could recognize it. So, it was clear that they were somewhere else.
And as a local hunting group, it was clear that Felix didn't have that many people. There were many questions in their heads, but they could only trust Felix if they truly wanted to survive.
Suddenly, one of them raised his hand. "I am Ricky from the Military! I'm prepared to help!"
There was research that people loved to follow other people. And Theo took advantage of that psychology to get the rest of the people.
"Stan from the Military! I'm ready to help!"

"Reyhan…"
More and more people raised their hands. Even those who didn't want to help somehow raised their hands.
"!!!" Felix widened his eyes and the people who gathered below him and those who didn't move earlier somehow raised their hands.
Theo took a deep breath and moved toward them. After that, he raised his hand and lifted twenty people to the air at a time for accuracy purposes.
He finally utilized his Telekinesis to the limit and somehow brought three hundred people into the air.
"Hu…" Theo let out a tired breath because using his Telekinesis on these many people took so much toll on his mind.
"Are you alright?" Felix asked, worried.
"Just continue." Theo nodded, assuring him.
Although he was still worried, Felix looked at the people that Theo lifted and shouted, "I need your help to spread the messages to the people in this area. I know that it's going to be close to impossible, but I want to repeat my words.
"I believe these lines are the best to convince them. Tell them, 'We've stalled the monsters in the perimeter for at least an hour. The explosions are our group fighting against the monsters.
'Soldiers or experts, please help us protect the civilians and guide them to safety. Follow the people in the sky! We can return to the city within three hours!'
"These are the words that you're going to tell them. Do you have any questions?"
Felix's instruction was clear. Still, one of them raised his hand. As a soldier, he needed to know about the military.
Of course, Theo used his Telekinesis to move him to Felix so that he could ask the question.
After that, Felix shouted again, "The man asked where the military is? The answer is there are none. When our group found you, we knew that we would be fighting against time. That's why we also sent a few experts to inform the military in that area.
"However, if we waited for the military, many people would have died from dehydration! I believe we can meet the military on our way or even when we reach the city. If you still don't believe us, then we can't do anything. We'll only help the people who are willing to trust us because it's impossible for a small group like us to help so many people!"
Felix's answer instilled fear in many people's hearts but also many questions. They wanted to ask again, but Felix warned them they didn't have much time left. If they failed to evacuate from this area within an hour, they would die under the monster's onslaught.
"If you don't believe us, please raise your hands. We'll put you down. Those who remain, please shout those words so that we can get as much help as possible while escorting all the civilians to safety."
They were still hesitant, but surprisingly, only around ten people raised their hands.
After that, Theo put them down as he used the Telekinesis to hover at that altitude while bringing them to the masses.
"We've stalled the monsters in the perimeter for at least an hour."

"Soldiers or experts, please help us protect the civilians and guide them to safety."
"Follow the people in the sky! We can return to the city within three hours!"
"Please keep in line and avoid stepping on each other."
It might be due to the fact that most people in the sky were from the military, the civilians actually believed there was going to be a rescue. And their speech raised the spirits of other soldiers to help the civilians.
Even the experts also rose from their positions, trying to help the people.
As expected from the soldiers, they seemed to have learned sign language as well. While shouting, they informed the other soldiers about taking their own positions.
Due to their initiative, Theo managed to control the crowd easier. Even so, it required a huge amount of effort to convince them.
And Theo didn't plan to convince all of them.
As long as half of the people in the valley could move, they would ultimately drag or force another thirty percent to move. And another ten percent would come from the desperate people that were scared they would die, so they had no choice but to follow the masses.
As for the remaining people, Theo had considered them as casualties, thinking that they didn't want to move because they thought they would anger the monsters.
Yes, Theo had expected at least one hundred thousand people to stay behind and die here. And there was nothing he could do.
