Even After Death novel (Olivia and Ethan) novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339

1/2

This area in the suburbs outside the city had been turned into a natural reserve some years ago. All of the inhabitants were moved a long time ago, so it became deserted over the years.

Some old abandoned buildings could be seen through the rain. There were also some crows on old electric poles.

Some noises could be heard amongst the thunder. It was like someone was setting off fireworks in the area. The noises were deafening.

Continuous gunshots followed the noises. The sound of gunfire disrupted the peace of the woods.

The underground base was thrown into chaos, and the speakers were blaring “Warning, danger!” on repeat.

Some giant screens revealed the situation outside. The base had been surrounded without their knowledge. Some drones were laying waste to the cameras outside. Static began to show up on the screens.

All the doctors in the labs were alerted. They came out and began pacing, saying, “What’s wrong? What’s happening?”

Most of the people in the base were bookworms who were obsessed with their research. They couldn’t hold their own in a fight. They had no life skills other than doing research.

Amidst the chaos, a cold voice rang out. “Come with me. Evacuate from the secret passage.”

Colin had a stormy expression. “They didn’t attack out of nowhere. This is a planned assault. They might be waiting for us at the end of the passage. Who’s able to evade all of our security cameras and find our location?”

Colin finally realized that he had provoked a madman.

His area of activity had long been under Ethan’s watchful eye, but he thought he had fooled Ethan. He was proud of it too. But his actions had brought disaster to the organization’s doorstep.

“It’s too late for words now. I’ll lead a team to attract their attention. The rest of you escape while I keep them occupied.”

“Leo!”

Colin stopped in his tracks. His face was calm under the mask, but his voice was laced with bloodlust. “I don’t have to be responsible for the murders I commit with this identity, right?”

“There’s no need for that. We don’t need to confront them. Take the drug and leave with the others.”

“I’m sorry, boss, but I’ll have to defy you on this.”

Colin had spent enough time as a goody-two-shoes. He didn’t have to do that today.
