"What's up?" Crimson asked, strolling over with a curious look.
Kruz didn't hold back, spilling the beans about the sudden crowd from Empire Base heading to the medical facility. Crimson's face turned serious in an instant.
Empire Base wouldn't move so many people without a good reason—unless—
They've probably tracked down Flora and Connor!
"Get the chopper ready, we're heading to the medical base right now!" Crimson barked urgently.
Ten minutes later, a fleet of helicopters was slicing through the air, all heading towards the medical base!
...
Meanwhile, over on Lone Island, the Falcone and Reyes families got the scoop too. They were buzzing with excitement!
"It's gotta be news about Flora!" Ethan exclaimed, "Mom, we need to get over there, pronto!"
"Round everyone up, let's head to the medical base!" Karter commanded, leading a big group with Raul and Henrik tagging along. Ever since Flora's incident, they'd been camping out at Lone Island with the Reyes family. With Flora's fate hanging in the balance, there was no way they could just chill back in Austenberg.
The two families met up at Lone Island's border, forming an even bigger group, all making a beeline for the medical base!
...
In the lab, Flora's experiment was wrapping up. She was as cool as a cucumber, while Eula was practically bouncing off the walls with excitement. They were on the last step, and Eula was so pumped he could barely contain his joy.
Success was just around the corner! An experiment that had eluded him for half a year was about to be nailed by Flora in less than an hour!
Flora glanced at his ecstatic face with a calm gaze, then suddenly paused her work. With a soft chuckle, she pulled up a chair and sat down.
Nope, not gonna finish it.
"What are you doing?" Eula was frantic, "It's the last step, come on, finish it!"
He was itching to step in for Flora, but he knew this last step was crucial. A tiny misstep and the whole thing would flop, so he didn't dare to touch it.
Flora casually lifted her chin, clearly not planning to continue.
Eula was so frustrated he felt like pulling out a gun! Not that he'd actually shoot her, of course. She was too much of a treasure to harm.
