Claire Chapman and Paige Summers exchanged a look. Instead of relaxing, their expressions grew even more serious.
The Foundry, which could house thousands, and the nearby military base… and all they had were the Zombies at the entrance? What a joke! Even if they had dwindled from fighting each other, the survivors should have become High-level Zombies by now. And yet, all they had seen were mere grunts.
This lack of logic usually meant a bigger trap was waiting.
For a moment, Claire Chapman considered taking another route, but she immediately dismissed the idea.
This was the most direct path to the warehouse district. Taking a detour would likely mean encountering more Zombies. Besides, who could guarantee other routes wouldn't have the same problem?
"Probably a big one."
Paige Summers said softly, a faint, almost imperceptible excitement in her voice.
Advancing her superpower after reaching the Eighth Rank would require more and higher-level Crystal Cores.
