Chapter 312.
Cyrus’s handsome eyes snapped wide open.
His heart suddenly raced with a frantic rhythm.
Something was wrong. Very wrong.
Someone had been here first!
Cyrus didn’t care about anything else anymore. He blew the massive doors open with a single palm strike and stormed inside.
When he saw the scene of utter emptiness, he nearly lost his mind.
“Damn it!” Cyrus snarled. He knew exactly what had happened.
Josie had been here first!
Aside from her, no one could have quietly moved every single item right under his nose. And aside from her, no one possessed the capacity to take so much stuff at once.
This was an entire research institute!
Three floors, each spanning over ten thousand square meters. Aside from Josie, who else could have hauled away every table, chair, and piece of equipment?
However, Cyrus still held onto a sliver of hope.
Perhaps Josie had only taken the equipment and furniture because she couldn’t find the nuclear material storage.
Josie was a pure-blooded human; she had no natural sensitivity to nuclear materials. Finding it through manual searching alone was nearly impossible. Only the Undead or Mutants could sense nuclear materials and radiation.
Cyrus knew that Josie’s sentient plant, Lirio, had gone to a different irradiated zone to absorb radiation. Therefore, Josie shouldn’t have any means or channels to locate the nuclear materials.
What Cyrus didn’t know was that while Lirio wasn’t by her side, a timid little thing named Ivy had gathered every ounce of courage in her tiny body to approach Josie.
To stay alive, Ivy had spent her life running and hiding. She knew every inch of Newport City’s underground tunnels like the back of her vine. And since she was a Mutant, en though she was the weakest and most insignificant type, she still possessed a natural sense for radiation.
It was a matter of fate.
Both Cyrus and Josie were in
favored by great destiny. It all came down to who claimed the advantage first!
Cyrus shoved aside his fury and began searching for the nuclear materials.
The tables, chairs, and lab equipment didn’t matter. What mattered were the massive stockpiles of nuclear materials!
Relying on his own sensitivity to radiation, Cyrus quickly located the hidden warehouse.
But as he stood before the warehouse doors, that same sense of dread washed over him again.
Fine. Very well.
He didn’t even need to go inside to guess the result.
Josie had already found this place.
With a face like iron, Cyrus blasted through several heavy lead doors. When he finally looked up at the vast warehouse-now so clean there wasn’t even a trace of debris left-he finally snapped.
“Damn it! Damn it! DAMN IT!” Cyrus could no longer contain his rage. He unleashed a full-strength strike.
The power of a Tier-6 Alpha Undead was terrifying.
