"As long as there's a trail, I don't care what dark corner of the earth he's hiding in. I will drag this rat out into the light and tear his Obsidian Sun network apart, piece by piece."
Serena turned and walked out the door.
Nicholas watched her retreating figure, a profound emotion flashing through his eyes before his long legs carried him after her.
The three Lancaster brothers exchanged a glance, their eyes still swirling with cold, undiluted murderous rage.
They had completely upended the sinister trap set in Severia.
But everyone knew the truth.
This was far from over.
The real mastermind had used the chaos to cut his losses and slip away once again.
And what they had to do now...
Was follow this trail relentlessly.
Track it straight to the true stronghold of the Obsidian Sun.
Hunt down The Overlord who cowered in the shadows, too terrified to even show his face.
And then.
They would drag him out into the bloody daylight.
...
Meanwhile.
Deep within the Severian tech center's underground base.
The shrill blare of alarms continued to echo through the facility.
Debris and dust rained down from the ceiling as entire sections of the structure began to collapse.
"Hurry! We've got survivors over here!"
"Bring the stretchers!"
"This corridor is caving in! Get them out now!"
Thirty Dragon-Thorn Operatives and the reinforcements dispatched by Elyndor were frantically digging through the rubble to save lives.
It was a literal race against death.
Some were hauling stretchers.
Others were battering down reinforced doors to reach the trapped victims.
A few sprinted through the flames, carrying salvaged data drives on their shoulders.
Others cleared the wreckage, screaming for the medical teams to prepare for immediate intake.
Some of the rescued victims were still conscious, their eyes hollow and utterly terrified, as if they couldn't fathom that they were finally seeing the light of day again.
