Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2225

The personnel in front only noticed the dead staff when they arrived at the signal center half an hour later. They immediately reported the incident to King, who was the chief commander. “What did you say? They’ve all been killed? By whom?”

“There are some footprints at the scene, and these footprints disappear at the entrance of the cave. Chief Commander, these people have also gone underground. Surely they are not. targeting Mr. Quarles?!”

King’s face turned grave. These people were most likely the ones they had detected through the external signals the previous night. He instantly realized that they might be responsible for this disaster. Not only that, Ethan was their target.

“Quick… Quickly contact the nearest rescue team and request immediate reinforcements. We’ve come in contact with enemy forces,” King urgently commanded. It seemed that relying solely on the base’s rescue efforts was no longer sufficient; they needed to deploy more rescue personnel.

His greatest concern was Ethan’s safety. Since he hadn’t had a chance to learn about everything that had transpired, it was too dangerous for him to be inside the cave at this moment.

Suddenly, a loud explosion as if something had detonated underneath came from underground. The terrifying tremors proceeded to knock King to the ground. He crawled on the floor and shouted in distress, “The president is in danger!”

All rescue operations immediately came to a halt. But strangely enough, due to the earthquake-like tremor, some rocks blocking the cave entrance rolled away, revealing a passageway.

“Chief Commander, good news! The earthquake just now opened up the cave entrance. We only need to wait a little longer before we can go down and rescue them.”

“Quick, prepare yourselves to go in for the rescue,” King instructed. He then grabbed someone next to him. “Assign four people to me. I’m going to the back mountain to take a look.”

After reaching the back mountain, King was left dumbfounded. The cave entrance, which had been smooth just moments ago, was now completely blocked by the snow that had fallen from above. The entrance was nowhere to be seen.
