Jaden was surprised when he heard those words. Even with hissharp senses, he could not detect the sound of someone approaching them.
He could of course detect the sound of the movements from
within the parking, but that was not from the mutants, but instead, it was from
the guards and other owners of some of the cars within the parking.
If what Nameless had said was the truth, then that implied Read the latest on empire Sear?h the N??eFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
that he had an ability that was related to detection. Either blocking or doing
the tracking himself, it was quite an ability.
Regardless, he followed behind Nameless, and the two of them
got into the space that had been opened up after the wall had moved.
Even though the wall had moved, and there was light within
the underground parking, Jaden could not see what was inside. It was as if
there was something that was blocking the light from penetrating the entrance
that had just been opened.
But all of this changed the moment that they got in. The
darkness inside simply dissipated, allowing Jaden to see what was around him.
It turned out that they had gotten inside something like a
cube, which looked like an elevator. But there were no buttons that could
control the elevator.
Just after the two of them had gotten inside, the wall that
had opened began closing. And it was also at this point that he noticed
something.
Inside the cube that they had entered, while on the other
side, especially the door, was just normal construction material, from the
inside, he noticed that it seemed that advanced technology had been used.
It was some kind of shiny material that could reflect light
slightly, but not glaringly. They were so smooth that even Jaden could easily
see his appearance. Had it not been that the surface was brownish in color,
Jaden would have thought that this was a mirror.
After the ''door'' was closed, Nameless approached it. He then
placed his hand on it. The next moment, a faint light came from the surface
that he had touched, before it scanned his hand.
{Welcome.} A female electronic voice suddenly resounded
within, startling Jaden slightly.
"Take us to the entrance of the lab." Nameless stated.
{Please wait for a moment.} The voice responded. And then in
the next moment, Jaden noticed that there was a change.
He could tell that they were moving downwards at this
moment. That was simply due to the feeling that came, especially due to an
elevator moving downwards at a high speed.
Jaden understood that they were currently moving downwards,
which was something to be expected. And a few seconds later, the electronic
voice sounded once again.
{We have arrived at the entrance of the lab.}
Immediately after the voice, the entrance of the elevator
opened, allowing Jaden to see what was on the other side.
"This is something that I had to find some guys that are
quite skilled to create it. They knew about this place, but they did not know
about what is here.
It can be said that those that I invited have a slightly
good relationship with me. That is the only reason why I trusted them to create
this for me. Otherwise, in order for us to be able to get here, we would have
had to demolish the hotel above us." Nameless explained just after they had
gotten out of the elevator.
"How deep are we underground?" Jaden asked in response as he
looked around.
He noticed that there was nothing around them other than a
metallic door a few meters ahead. As for the path that led there, it was a
corridor that was led from the elevator that was already closed.
The entire space was currently lit up, making the place seem
more advanced, just from the metallic walls. The floor beneath them was clean,
reflecting the light that came from the ceiling.
"We are currently just about a hundred meters underground.
This was something that we did in order to make sure that the location of the
laboratory was not revealed.
The entire laboratory walls are reinforced with steel,
making the lab something like a stronghold. It cannot collapse despite the
pressure coming from above.
Of course, this is something that I would not have been able
to complete recently. With the current development of the city, it is obviously
impossible for me to do something like that as it will lead to a huge
commotion.
But considering that this was something that was done years
ago, just before this city developed to the current level, the tremors that
were caused back then we''re thought to be a small magnitude earthquake."
Nameless responded with a lengthy explanation.
Jaden raised his brows slightly when he heard that. It was
quite unexpected that this lab was located this deep underground. But when he
thought about it, he realized that it actually made sense.
In any case, this city was only established recently, at
least to become a first tier city. It was initially a small second tier city,
but that changed with the change in powers in the government.
The new leader wanted the entire central province to be
developed, which was the reason for the rapid development of the city to the
current level.
Just as he thought about it, he realized that in the
information about this city that was presented by the AI, this piece of
information was contained.
But it was impossible for Jaden to know about something like
this as he had never anticipated that the laboratory was located in this city.
More than that, it was completely unexpected that the lab would be located in
the heart of the city.
But thinking about it, Jaden realized that this was not
something that had been done intentionally. It was just that during the
development of this city, it was just coincidental that this area developed
more, leading to this area being the central and most developed area.
"Let''s go. We better get what we need as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if this guys up there come to know that there is a space down here,
which they will surely know, we will have to fight against them, and there is a
great risk that they will know about the presence of the lab here.
It would be better if we go and confront them up there
instead. That way, they can only imagine about what is here, and not be sure
about it." Nameless said as he led the way towards the entrance of the lab.
Jaden discarded the thoughts in his mind and immediately
followed behind Nameless. He realized that he would have to be prepared to
fight the moment that they got out of here.
When the two of them got to the door, Jaden noticed that the
entire door was just a piece of metal without any advanced devices. But after
observing carefully, he noticed that there was a small part that looked
completely different.
Nameless was currently standing there. He placed his hand
there, and in the next moment, the same light flashed like it did in the
elevator.
A few seconds later, there was a slight tremble before the
metallic entrance began moving. And just as Jaden wanted to question why that
was the case, when the door was only supposed to be opened by him, he stopped
himself.
The reason being that he saw that after the metal retracted
into the wall around them, it exposed yet another door. It was just that this
door looked to be more advanced as compared to the one before.
"Go ahead. You just have to put your hand there, and the
rest will be automatically completed." Nameless said as he pointed to a spot on
the newly exposed door.
Jaden looked over and realized that there was a small panel.
On that panel that was the size of a hand but was rectangular shaped, there was
a small opening. Jaden understood that this was the one that was supposed to
get his blood for the DNA test.
Jaden did not immediately do as Nameless expected of him. He
would obviously not just blindly trust Nameless as this was just the first day
that they had met.
He observed carefully, just to see if there was any danger
around, or traps. After detecting none, he looked at Nameless, observing his
expression. But he noticed that Nameless was extremely calm, not having the
anticipation that a person that was about to get what they wanted would have.
Nameless noticed that Jaden was cautious, and he nodded in
his heart in approval. That was something that he had hoped for.
After observing for a while, Jaden went ahead and approached
the door. He then placed his hand on the door. It was at that moment that light
lit up on the panel. It seemed to be scanning his right hand.
He suddenly detected some movement coming from within the
door. It was clearly some mechanism of the door. And, it was operating at a
high speed.
Jaden did not feel any danger, and so, he left his hand
there. And less than a second later, he felt that something had pricked his
palm, shocking him slightly. After the advancement that came from the physique
enhancing pill, it was not that easy to prick his finger.
But it seemed that the material that was used to create the
needle was quite special that it could still prick him despite the strength and
tenseness of his skin.
About five seconds later, Jaden retracted his hand. And
then, he detected that a slight movement coming from the door and it began
opening.
