With 16 hours remaining until the conclusion of the expeditions, an unforeseen event occurred that sent shockwaves through the Celestials ruins. The colossal planet-like structure underwent a dramatic transformation, leaving all humans and elves observing from space in a state of disbelief. The massive ruin was suddenly placed on lockdown, with all nine gates simultaneously closing. Over 50,000 humans and elven magus found themselves trapped inside the structure, unable to leave or communicate with the outside world. Panic and confusion swept through the Magus Alliance Space Station, where several elders from human factions anxiously awaited updates on the young and talented magus participating in the expedition. The situation had become increasingly alarming, especially in light of the recent news about a massive battle erupting on the seventh layer.

The Grand Magus Council, responsible for overseeing the event, was equally troubled. Furry Hammar, had reached a point of anxiety where he felt compelled to summon the supreme magus, Imperio. He demanded explanations from the elves, particularly focusing on the Eldamar clan of the high elves, as they were suspected of having knowledge about the unfolding events.

The situation was becoming increasingly tense, leaving both humans and elves on edge as they sought answers to the unfolding crisis.

The unexpected lockdown didn't confine itself solely to the seventh layer; rather, it extended its reach to encompass all six layers of the crossover. Enforcers, under the capable leadership of Zach Talon, swiftly took control of the situation. Their primary objectives were to ascertain the cause of this unprecedented event and to bolster the security measures in place.

"Summon all the human magus," Zach ordered, urgency evident in his voice. "Let's gather everyone at this base!"

While the Magus Alliance had established base camps on the second and fourth layers, the other layers lacked such facilities. The Earth Magus team found themselves trapped within one of the third-layer vaults, desperately attempting to devise an exit strategy. Unfortunately, their communication devices had ceased to function, leaving them in the dark about the situation.

"Let's stay calm," Klea said, her voice steady as she attempted to reassure the group. "First, let's clear this place of the drones, and then we can start looking for a way out."

The tension was palpable as they prepared to face the unknown challenges ahead.

Back at the Seventh Layer, Emery was frustrated that the major incident unfolding before them didn't bring the ongoing battle to a halt; instead, it seemed to escalate further. More elves arrived, intent on entering the mysterious hole in the ground, while others remained behind to bolster their defenses. Their determination to protect the site reinforced the belief that their actions were the primary cause of the lockdown affecting the ruins.

As Emery observed this chaotic scene, he suddenly found himself targeted by a group of dark magus who recognized him. These dark elf magus possessed a unique skill that allowed them to single him out from the sea of human magus and bind him with high-grade magical strings. Without hesitation, they unleashed their most potent attacks in an attempt to harm him.

Emery's patience had worn thin, and he had no interest in playing games with the dark elf magus. His transformation alone was enough to shatter the binds they had placed on him, leading to the swift demise of all five assailants at the edge of Emery's blade. He promptly captured their souls, and thanks to his heightened soul force, he found it effortless to delve into their memories.

What he discovered was disheartening. These dark elves were entirely ignorant of the situation and had been acting as mere pawns, blindly following orders to defend the area. "They were nothing more than mindless puppets," Emery concluded with a hint of frustration.

In order to gain a clearer understanding of the events, Emery plans to capture one of the high-ranking high elves. However, before he could pursue this course of action, Jinkan approached him once again.

"We must discover what the elves are up to. We need to pursue them!" Her plea was grounded in the realization that only limited information had trickled in from the outside. She also understood that the lockdown had affected all layers, putting their friends in the lower layers at risk. The situation demanded swift action and answers.

Without hesitation, a group of magus volunteered to enter the mysterious hole within the celestial structure. Jinkan swiftly signaled the rest of her team to join her. Her team consisted of 40 members, not including the mercenaries, who chose to abstain, citing that it was not part of their original agreement.

Surprisingly, Olivier, along with a small contingent of 20 from the Arkaland faction, also stepped forward. Additionally, Liam from the Azazel faction sent 20 of his men to assist, with the powerful Faith child, Nael Nephilim leading them.

The Golden Prince of the Nephilim, Liam, emphasized, "There are already at least 50 Oculus Dark magus inside. You can collaborate and support each other in there."

The situation had grown increasingly dire, and cooperation was now crucial.

As preparations were underway, the structure once again quaked, intensifying their mounting anxiety. Even more magus arrived, and the numbers of elves now greatly outnumbered the humans. With nearly twice as many elves on the seventh layer, the odds could quickly tilting against them.

Desperation filled the air as the situation grew increasingly dire. "You need to leave now!" shouted Liam, giving his order.

As the signal was given, a group of Imperium magus took the forefront, unleashing a relentless and thunderous barrage of heavy artillery fire. The explosions that followed created chaos among the elven defenders who guarded the entrance to the structure. The Cross and Arcanum magus quickly followed suit, combining their considerable magical talents to cast an array of their most potent offensive spells. The result was a dazzling display of magical might, aimed at diverting the elves' attention and sowing confusion among their ranks.

In the midst of this coordinated assault, another wave of celestial constructs surged forward, charging toward the hole with unwavering determination. These mechanical beings were an imposing force, threatening to overwhelm the already strained elven defenses.

Amid the chaotic clash of magic and the deafening roar of weaponry, Emery seized a pivotal moment. He harnessed his portal-creating abilities to create an ethereal gateway, providing their group with an escape route that slipped through the very cracks in the enemy lines. Through this portal, they advanced toward the heart of the unfolding mystery, leaving the ongoing battle behind them.
