About a week had passed. Torc had prepared all of Hammer team for this mission. This team, which is normally adept at spells that will cause as much damage as possible, has been trained with spells that can't make too much noise and finish the job quietly but effectively. Everyone in the team had a good success in this regard and mastered at least one spell in a week, there were even those who could do three or four spells flawlessly. Torc has divided the 30-man Hammer Team into 6 groups for any possible situation. Each team was led by someone who had mastered at least 3 spells. Heart Crusher had told him to choose his men carefully, so Torc decided to use his whole team because he didn't think there was any man in his team he could afford to lose, he needed every potential manpower he could get.

In addition to all these physical developments, he knew how important it was for his team to be mentally ready. One thing was certain, this mission will not be without losses. His men were not supposed to succumb to their anger no matter what. But Torc had some doubts about it. Hammer Team gets its power from revenge. Before getting in a war, the atmosphere in the team would smell of hatred and they would let out a warcry, which enhanced this atmosphere even more. If any harm came to one of them, they would become angry and fight more aggressively. But on this mission, they shouldn't be interested in what happened to the others. They had to stay away from anger and revenge, and leave their feelings in the Lower World, in their homeland. Torc had repeatedly warned his men about this. He had even put them through a simulation spell, to assess their most natural reaction to a possible loss. All of his men had taken valid notes from the simulation, but there was still a little bit of doubt inside Torc. No matter how advanced the magic was, real life was completely different.

They had arrived to the address found in the envelope that Heart Crusher's butler gave. It was a gulf between the two worlds, which the army does not use often. They made their way to the place where Heart Crusher's henchmen were waiting. As he wrote in the same letter, this was a ship that could lift about 30 people. But it didn't look like any of the army ships that Torc had ever seen before. Usually, crystals were used to increase the effects of spells that generate energy for the ship. But he had never seen such a department on this ship. Moreover, there was no place on the ship that would provide energy. It had oars dangling down the sides that resemble the ships that poor people who are not able to use crystalline vehicles embark on. It was just like those ships but floating in the air with magic. Heart Crusher said in the letter that they would use a different way of transportation, but Torc thought it would be a very superior level of magic, not a ship that could not be used for magic at all, except that it could fly...

One of the henchmen gestured to Torc. The time had come. Torc looked back at his soldiers once more and smiled. It was a nervous smile, but also full of excitement and hope. All 30 members of the Hammer Team boarded this old ship, which was most likely used in the early years of the Great War. The navigator determined the route and the soldiers that received the first watch began rowing.

When they reached the space where the atmospheres of the two planets met, they started to cast a veil spell. It was a spell that completely concealed their existence and felt like it made them disappear into nothingness. He understood now. Although crystals were useful things that greatly reduced the burden on warlocks, the amount of magic accumulated in them was too much. There were also spells that would prevent their presence from being detected, but he could never be sure to what extent the other party could sense these spells. It was best to move forward with normal physical strength and block the existence of warlocks with a veil spell. A spell that can cover even your own existence. Although the distance between the two worlds was not very long, it seemed to take more time with only physical strength. They've been on the road for two weeks. It's been an annoying and very difficult two weeks. Rowing all the time would make you feel exhausted, no matter how strong you are.

Finally, the great facility of the sorcerers they must infiltrate is on the horizon. Torc ordered his men to anchor without getting too close. Then he started to observe what kind of magic, traps, and protection the building was protected with, how many guards there were, and how often they take shifts for the right moment before sneaking in. Then he started looking for the right moment.

This old army ship, which has been at anchor for a day or two, had been waiting. His exhausted men had taken a rest and were getting impatient. Torc had a lot of plans in his head on sneaking into and escaping. But it was all very risky, and the disadvantage of not knowing what was happening inside was making his job very difficult. Actually, Torc would have already entered if he wanted to enter, but he wanted to do it in a smooth way. Although he thought fighting was inevitable, he still believed he would find a way. He couldn't bring 30 of his men into a collision with all the sorcerers of the Upper World. He continued to think, looking at the huge structure that appeared on the horizon. Now his men were getting worried as well.

- The captain has been watching the horizon with all his attention since we docked.

- That's right, he doesn't sit with us, he doesn't eat, he doesn't drink, he doesn't even talk.

- Usually, before each mission, he would be the most active among us.

-I'm getting worried.

- It's all right, Arthur said. Mind your own business.

Arthur was Torc's right-hand man, and he had a great respect for his leader. He was aware that this mission exerted an unusual pressure on Torc. He was trying to help his leader as much as possible by trying not to create the slightest tension in the team. The Hammer Team listens to Arthur's word as much as they listen to Torch. They had a much different bond with Torc over the years. Arthur was very strong, just like Torc, but the reason Torc has been leading the team was because Torc was prudent. Arthur, on the other hand, was having trouble controlling his anger. He had quarreled with Torc many times over these outbursts of anger. For this reason, Arthur was very afraid of not being able to pass the simulation, which is one of the main conditions for this mission. But here he was on this ship, next to Torc. And he would do everything in his power to achieve this mission, which is very important for his leader.

Finally, Torc began to tell his soldiers about the plan that he considered the most risk-free among them. One of the groups of five that he had separated before setting out would protect the ship and they would continue to feed the covering spell. The last thing Torc would want is for the ship to be noticed by the enemy, while they were sneaking in. When they got in, they would try to stay as close to each other as possible. Being a big group would make it easier for them to be noticed, but the loss would be much greater if they go around separately. Torc was working results-oriented. Only Torc and Arthur knew what the thing that Heart Crusher wanted them to steal looked like. If the groups had to be separated, they would first be separated under these two leaders, and then if they had to be separated again, the leaders would give information and responsibility to someone who they thought could take over this mission from the group, and the division would continue in this way. Of course, this was something they didn't want.

As for how to sneak in; this was the matter on which Torc thought the most on. He had a lot of elemental masters on his team. But this wasn't a job for just anyone. To be able to sneak the whole team inside by turning them into an element and meanwhile, making sure the sorcerers inside will not notice the element that they just formed, and to turn each team member properly back to their old forms. In addition, the right choice of elements was also important. For example, the first element that came to mind was air, it could pass through even the slightest gap. But although it was invisible, the presence of air was quite perceptible, especially if all 25 men were to be turned into the air and put inside, a serious airflow would form inside, and the sorcerers would definitely suspect it. They also cannot camouflage the presence of air. There was no one on his team who was adept at using the covering spell on beings other than himself. Those with some knowledge were staying outside to protect the ship. Similar things were valid for water. If they were to leak inside drop by drop, a pond of water would form which would definitely alert the sorcerers inside. Torc's eyes shifted to Ari.

Although he was very young, he was a very talented magician. Since the war began, many valuable magicians have come out of his family. His parents had also always played important roles in major collisions. When Ari was a young child, his mother was taken captive by wizards, and he never heard from her again. Thanks to the hatred from his childhood and the high-quality education of his father, he became a strong sand element master at a young age and was able to enter the Hammer Team, the best pioneer unit of the wizard army. He had an aggressive attacking style. He was very smart. He would fight tactically, and make powerful attacks and seriously defeat his enemies. He could use everything around him to attack. Even on the shore of the ocean, he would be the dominant side in the attack. And in the desert, he would not leave such a thing as the opposite side, he would destroy it.

Although he had a very aggressive style, Ari could be useful for this sneak-in mission. He would turn the men into grains of sand first, and he could get them in through any gap. Having regained his former form, the magician could immediately apply a cloaking spell there and hide his presence. It might take a long time to get 25 guys in one by one, but it was the best way. Also, after a spell that requires such a contraction and energy, Ari wouldn't be able to hang on, he would need to stay on the ship and rest. For that, Torc has put one of his men that he chose to stay on the ship, which was partially good at the cover spell; on the sneak-in team instead of Ari. It was also good that someone with high offensive capabilities would remain on the ship. In case of possible detection, Ari would protect the ship at all costs.

And the exit plan was quite simple. It's what the Hammer Team has always done so far, hit and run. When they struck, they would cause such destruction that even if they were outnumbered on their way back, it would not matter to them. Powerful explosives were to be placed at various points and tricks of the building while searching for the object. They would take the object and detonate the main entrance of the building first, and activate the other bombs they hid when everyone got on the ship. And so they were going to say goodbye to the Upper World with a farewell party befitting the Hammer Team.
