Chapter 494
The folks living in these houses had to be Union Base members. The idea of them launching a survival-of-the-fittest plan just to handle a couple of intruders, disregarding their own members' lives, was beyond twisted. Union Base... what a joke!
If this is how they treated their own, invaders didn't stand a chance. With heightened senses, the duo ventured deeper into the labyrinth. Jasper pushed open a door and, to his surprise, found a two-way corridor leading to another passage. One scouted ahead while the other watched their six.
Stella noticed faint seam lines on the floor. Jasper was right; the base was multi-layered. This was just the first level. They twisted and turned through several corridors but still couldn't find an exit. Were they trying to trap them here until they died?

Now, Stella faced these bio-engineered bats, their danger magnified a thousandfold. It wasn't just the threat of physical attack; the pathogens they carried were deadly.
And they were swooping down on them.
Without hesitation, Stella pulled out a flamethrower from their Arcadia gear and unleashed a torrent of fire. A dragon of flame roared to life in the darkness, the bats screeching in agony as they fell from the sky. The intense heat sealed their fate.
