'It's that squad. They've caught up!'
Though already exhausted, Alina found a new surge of strength from somewhere and charged forward again.
After rounding a corridor, the way ahead suddenly opened up, revealing a relatively wide stone platform.
At the far end of the platform, a dilapidated archway was faintly visible—it seemed to be the true entrance to the ruins.
However, just as she was about to rush onto the platform and step through the archway, several figures shot out from the shadows on both sides like phantoms, blocking her path. It was the Dome squad!
"Running? Why'd you stop?" The commander's cold voice echoed in the empty corridor, tinged with the playful cruelty of a cat toying with a mouse. The squad members behind him quickly fanned out, their muzzles glowing with energy as they locked onto Alina and the man on her back, Jian Yi.
