After half an hour, Jacob's figure appeared outside the secret underground stairs while holding the scanner in his hand.
After exiting the passage, he pressed the scanner's screen a few times before he activated the self-destruction protocol without hesitation.
He took whatever he deemed important from this facility, which included the data on cannibals and a jar of titan tears which were clearly saved for the cannibals.
Although the effect of Basic Grade Titan Tears almost none exists on Jacob in his current state, it was still better than nothing.
As for other things like firearms, Jacob didn't need them anymore, not of common region quality at least.
To make things difficult for the killer skull society, he decided to destroy this facility.
But he wasn't going to kill those mutants roaming freely in the uncommon region since it would be quite cumbersome, and the more time he wastes here the more danger he'll put himself in.
