In the Federation Suburbs of New York, a cargo truck traversed the national highway, escorted by a total of eight off-road vehicles, all the way to a military restricted area surrounded by barbed wire.
Inside the checkpoint, Federal soldiers loaded their fully automatic rifles, barrels pointed at the ground beneath the vehicles. They only relaxed their trigger fingers after identities were verified, allowing the convoy to enter the restricted zone.
The fierce-looking Zack glanced at the stationed soldiers at the gate and felt a bit surprised. The guards turned out to be F-ranked Transcendents at least!
This was his first visit here. Although he already knew that this military restricted area was a Supernatural Research Base highly esteemed by Federation officials, he never imagined that even the gatekeepers were F-ranked Transcendents.
