[Moscow]
As the battle raged on inside the building, the Terrorist group led by August is currently residing within the underground facility which was made way before the apocalypse and used by the underground company hiding under the dark of the society. Ever since the apocalypses happened, such facility were abandoned, which caused it to be a deso0late ruin to the outside world.
This time such facility is being used by the terrorist group as their temporary base. Thanks to Argie's work which is related to controlling the chaos beings that had once died, they were able to independently maneuver such trick without Argie's influence and made their previous victims of hunts to serve as guard dogs and deter any invading forces.
Due to the sudden telepathic heads-up by Helena on the surface, the group were able to activate their defenses and let their guard dogs loose towards their supposed invaders. Of course this didn't mean that they were cowards who are running away from their pursuers, but in fact they were buying time for themselves to engage in combat and possibly relocate to another place of location while the organization was distracted on one spot.
But if a fight is inevitable, they wouldn't hesitate for one bit to actually kill the person standing against them.
The reason for them to stall for time is to actually finish the very product they wanted to procure in order for them to initiate their revenge. Their ill feelings they harbor against the organization was secondary in comparison to their hatred towards Argie, the sole reason why their group fell apart.
Once they finished their business with Argie, they would then turn their hostility towards the organization who further pushed them to their current state of endangerment. With that in mind they would be able to take down two variables that caused their current situation at hand. In other words for them, this is simply a revenge story that they must enact.
Their very product, the serum, the serum that contains all the current understanding and knowledge of Argie that will help a person surpass the current limit of a human existence. The serum which would help a mortal to turn into a completely godly being that far surpass the superhuman of this world.
This type of serum has already proven their effectiveness when Argie used such concoction on himself back on the Philippines. Such speed, strength, agility, and alertness far surpassed any human standards. If it weren't for its imperfect state back on the Philippines, any person who took such boost would never ever be defeated by people who rely on human standard limit of power.
Till this time the serum is still imperfect and has some minor flaws, but if we compare this serum to the serum that Argie made in the Philippines, this serum on the terrorist hands are 5 times better than its predecessor. The only flaw is that such boost have the potential to destroy the body of the person who took such serum.
But such flaw can be ignored by applying Claire's ability that they have harvested from mixing her blood on the product. With the application of Life essence that was harvested from Claire's blood, they would then have no problem in terms of body's durability to handle the stress that the body would undertake once the serum is taken.
Not only would they have an indestructible body and infinite vitality, they would also be able to temporarily apply the aura of death on their attacks. Such is the trait of having Claire's ability be mixed in with something quite inhumane product of an experiment. Plus all of this were copied and distributed to all the remaining members of the terrorist group.
Each person has about three serums on hand, which would then prolong their activity and be able to actually do a long term battle with advantages.
As the serum was manually distributed towards its members, in front of the cell where they had kept both Claire and Argie, August and the rest of the group felt a strong tremor above them as they guessed that someone or something was releasing a powerful attacks on the building above.
After that strong tremor, August then looked at the prisoners in their cell, as Viktor approached him from behind.
"What shall we do?"
"Its a time to leave this base while the monsters stall for time... Andrei! lead the way"
Hearing August words, Andrei who were twice than august size, then stood up and followed his leader's command. With him on the lead, some of the members of the group followed suite as August gave another order towards his members
"Kentaro, Maria! take out the prisoners from their cell... we're gonna move them elsewhere alongside us"
This time the whole group then suddenly came to a stop as they all got confused by August orders and looked at him with a questioning look. But upon seeing their reaction, August simply understood them before he replied"
"What we have is only a limited serum, we would need them to further produce more of it in the future"
"But august we already learned the process of this so called serum, we don't need Argie's help any longer... he's useless to us now" retorted by Viktor
After contemplating for awhile, August realized that it was the case time around. They already learned what they needed to learn to produce the serum, Argie's knowledge held no meaning at this time around. However if they leave him in this place, Argie might be able typo escape without their supervision and if they tried to kill him, Argie would naturally fight bac k and maybe try something up on his sleeve to escape from their clutch.
That was how cunning Argie really is, so with that in mind, August then issued a new command.
"Still release them, we cant kill him here or leave him behind, he might use that chance to escape from our sight. So in order to ensure that he will be killed by our hands, we will bring him with us and kill him in a place where his body would not be found"
With such order, the rest simply accepted his words with the expectation to murder Argie with their bare hands. There was a time for everything and this was not the time for Argie to die as of yet.
At that, Sekai pulled out Argie who is suppressed by the cuffs around his wrist out of his cell and yanked him in the middle of the group. As for Maria, she teleports the cuffs which suppressed chaos ability of a user towards Claire's wrist and yanked her out of her cell. With the power temporarily sealed tight, Claire was no different from a little girl who got lost in the street and got kidnapped by a random group of people.
With everyone on the line, Andrei then lead forward as the rest of them followed from behind and August watching their rear.
At the same time unknown to any of the terrorist group, Jinwoo had broken through the thick ceiling of the underground facility and now has arrived at the very large open area of the facility. However the moment he started to walk out of the room, an intense killing intent swept towards him like a tidal flood, as Jinwoo quickly glanced at the shadowy area that is hiding the enemy that hostiles against him.
Not long after, the enemy itself walked out from the shadows as it resembled mix of chaos knight, chaos beast, and a human corpse. The moment Jinwoo saw such abomination, only one word jumped on his mind upon seeing it.
