While the crowd was discussing their next move
Baam
I heard a strong crash coming from above
When I looked up, I saw that the giant glass dome had cracks due to the collision of a vehicle
"What is happening..."
"How did the vehicle hit this place..."
The crowd became confused and the voices started to get louder
Atlas looked at the glass dome, then looked at the crowd, and shouted at the top of his voice, "They want to flood the city, run away, all of you...."
The crowd panicked and people started running
I'm still looking at the vehicle that hit the dome
Boom
Suddenly, a huge explosion occurred, destroying the glass dome
Water started entering the city , and the buildings were flooded with water
I suffered from the explosion and the water fell directly on me, my body felt pain
I held my breath and tried to find a place where I could breathe, but where can I find this place?
I'm under thousands of meters underwater
I saw dead bodies scattered everywhere, but the body of a specific person caught my attention
It was the body of Atlas
I started swimming towards him, and when I reached his body, I saw his eyes open, and he was struggling to hold his breath.
I saw lights approaching us and it only took seconds for those to reach us
It was a gigantic vehicle. One of the doors of that vehicle opened, and I saw people inviting us to enter through the windows of the vehicle
But Atlas stayed where he was, apparently injured by the explosion
I approached Atlas and grabbed him and tried to reach the door before we ran out of oxygen
After we entered through the door, we found ourselves in a small room filled with water
The door has been closed
Forrrrrrr
I heard motors and water was drawn from the room
"Ha, dammit, I want to go home...." I cursed as I tried to get my oxygen
"Hahaha, I want to too…" Atlas laughed when he heard me.
I looked at Atlas. "You're lucky..."
Atlas became sad, "But tens of thousands of innocent people died...."
"But who did it?..."
"It's Andrew Ryan..." Atlas said hatefully, "In order to destroy me, he destroyed this part of the city..."
Did Ryan kill all those people just to get rid of Atlas? , I was looking at the vehicle that crashed into the dome, and I am sure that it exploded because there were explosives inside it, this means that someone wanted to destroy this part of the city, and Andrew Ryan is the main suspect
A door opened and several men entered carrying blankets. These men helped Atlas get up and put a blanket over his shoulder.
They also helped me and put a blanket over my shoulder
Atlas approached me and extended his hand, "I am Atlas Forex, thanks for saving my life..."
I shook his hand and smiled at him, "I'm Joe, you don't need to thank me, if I did the right thing..."
Atlas smiled and wanted to talk, but one of the men interrupted him
"Atlas, we have a problem…."
The men followed us to the front of the vehicle
There were windows on the sides of the vehicle. I could see dead bodies floating in the sea. It was painful to see this sight.
A screen was turned on, and on it appeared a gigantic arena filled with people in different clothes who were fighting uniformed soldiers, I think they were the regular forces inside the city.
Atlas frowned as he looked at the screen, "What is the situation?…."
There was a blond man sitting on one of the chairs and pressing computer buttons with his eyes on his computer screen "Andrew Ryan's forces are attacking Fontaine's men, they are arresting and killing everyone, and Fontaine's men started to defend themselves, the city center has become a Battlefield...."
"Then we have no other choice..." Atlas looked at the woman driving the chariot. "Cassandra, point the chariot toward the center of town..."
A bald man with a long white beard stood up. "what do you want to do..."
Atlas smiled, "We're going to take advantage of the chaos and attack where Andrew Ryan lives..."
We were all shocked, that the attempt to assassinate the city's chief was a suicidal idea
I looked at Atlas. "Isn't it dangerous?..."
"Of course, this is a suicide mission, but this is our only option, Andrew Ryan won't stop until he kills all of us..." Atlas looked at me, "Sorry to get you involved in this, Joe, I..."
But I interrupted him. "Don't apologize, I plan to help you take over this city…"
Atlas put his hand on my shoulder, "Thank you, my friend..."
Cassandra smiled. "Looks like we've made a new comrade in our Suicide Squad..."
"Haha, it's still too early to be pessimistic..." Atlas laughed
Everyone smiled and greeted me when I made the decision to participate with them
I know this is a dangerous decision
But there was a crazy idea in my mind
What if I change the future?
Olympia City is destroyed by a conflict between Andrew Ryan and Frank Fontaine's men
If I can kill Andrew and make Atlas lead this city, I'm sure the future will change
I don't know Atlas very well, it might be a wolf in sheep's clothing, but as Alexander once said to me
Sometimes fateful decisions must be taken quickly
I have two options, the first is to let the war continue, and thus the city will be destroyed
And the second option is to help Atlas
So I decided to bet on Atlas, and I hope my choice is not wrong
But I was worried about what would happen if I died in this place
Will I really die and my soul disappear? Or I will return to Elia's body
I doubt the orb would let me die so easily
So I decided to rush with all my might to save this city
