Kyle took a deep breath to calm down because he knew opening Pandora's box comes with risk. However, this espionage was a huge mistake in his end.
As soon as Kyle stepped out from the portal, he saw the yellow sky with dust-covered ruins. Moreover, he saw the radiation of this place was skyrocketing as the time passed.
" All units retreat to the city."
Kyle shouted with a hoarse voice, activating his armor to block radiation damage. If it wasn't for Arthur who prepared for the worst apocalypse world, perhaps he would have caused quite a number of casualties here.
For that he thanked his father inside his head, retreating to the portal with a serious face while thinking the positive impact of this world.
" What is happening?"
Hill came running toward them with confusion, not knowing they had met radiation in the other world.
" The expedition was a failure. This world is filled with radiation. It might be an apocalyptic world."
The corporal reported back to her with a pale face due to radiation sickness that he got from the radioactive weather. Fortunately, Kyle moved them quickly so the damage wasn't permanent.
" Radioactive world? Why didn't drones report it back?"
Hill was puzzled by his report since she was the one who authorized the expedition after looking at the report of the drones. Although there was minimal radiation in the atmosphere, it was negligible and there were sightings of living beings around the vicinity.
" It was a failure, Mother. We have met a radioactive storm."
Hearing his words made them realize how grave was her mistake. Despite seeing the radioactive elements in the air, she thought it was safe to send her forces to a place that she even hadn't seen before. This was the biggest mistake that she made after Arthur's incident.
" I am sorry, Kyle. Honestly, I have been stressed lately due to my workload. I almost caused huge problems for the city."
She apologized for her mistake to Kyle. The air between them turned awkward because Kyle couldn't blame Hill and Hill couldn't face Kyle.
" It is good that everything is okay."
Suddenly Natasha came behind from the box, looking at them with a smile. She was making sure that everything went smoothly after Arthur departed into another world. She knew one tends to make a mistake due to their confidence, so she made sure that everything went smoothly.
" Indeed, my lord. It is my mistake that I didn't warn, Miss Hill."
Star recognized its error after getting a report from the other AIs. He wasn't able to analyze the pattern of the world because he was searching for traces of the villains.
" This doesn't matter anymore. We have to reorganize the group and reenter the portal."
Kyle decided to leave it as be because he understood the potential of the apocalyptic world where he could get resources for free like Resident Evil World. The huge amount of natural resources and renewable resources would be a huge benefit to the city.
" Then let's select elites this time. I think scientists would be great because we need to analyze the world."
Hill spoke calmly while looking at the potential candidates who were experienced with nuclear physics, physics, biology, and chemistry. The names appeared almost instantly after her search, showing the senior scientists who had sufficient power to protect themselves in the wasteland.
" Found it. We will send Firestorm, Banner, Viper, and Tesla with you since they are extremely potent people. Also, we will provide you with armors that can withstand high radiation."
Before Hill could finish her words, Tony came down from the sky with his signature smile.
" You!"
Natasha understood what he was trying to do with his smile. She had known this man for a long time, so she could see through his thoughts.
" Well, Kyle. I have an interesting proposal. How about I go with you?"
Kyle couldn't refuse Tony who was winking at him with a pleading face. Two men unconsciously reached an agreement at that moment because it was clear that he was making a run from Pepper after screwing up something.
" Under one condition. You will give me the newest armor set."
Kyle said with a helpless face, admitting he had a soft side for his people.
" Deal!"
Tony didn't hesitate to agree with his terms.
