The sound of gunshots filled the room.
Mixed with alarms howling endlessly.
And the increasingly wild pulse of the Helios core.
All these sounds collided, creating chaos that was almost indistinguishable.
But amidst it all.
Ethan stood firm.
Not retreating.
Not hesitating.
Behind him, Arman Virelli remained focused on the main console.
His hands moved quickly.
His eyes never left the data changing every second.
"Two minutes!" he shouted again.
Leonard Graves shot a man trying to approach from the left side.
The body fell hard to the floor.
But others kept coming in.
More of them.
Faster.
"They won't stop!" Daniel shouted from behind the console.
He tried to hold off the gunfire while keeping an eye on the electrical panels.
"We can't hold on like this!"
Ethan did not reply.
His eyes were focused on every enemy movement.
One step.
One shot.
One decision.
Everything precise.
But their numbers were too great.
Leonard stepped back slightly.
