"Hey, help!" Dunn's lit up as he saw the guards at the gate of the fifty-ter-high wall. He looked behind him in fear. The Spider Queen's presence was a shadow in his heart. They have already widened the distance thanks to Johan's spring. Yet when they removed it, they quickly caught up to them and were now seven ters away.
"Here! Fucking hurry, or else we'll lock the gate!" The two guards pressed a button of so device on them and the gate started to move up.
The guards hurriedly went inside, unwilling to stay outside for another second. If not for the law that mandates helping survivors outside, they wouldn't bother to wait for eight people. As for why is there a law to help survivors, it's to increase the population, improve the governnt's reputation, and get powerful warriors. Survivors outside usually have a high potential to beco Destiny.
Most of the people who occupied a position in the higher seats ca from the outside. They are also the ones who pushed the bill to help survivors as much as possible. Coincidentally, this task was one of the responsibilities of Guards.
'Finally arrived! Now, I can finally contact another power system and get stronger.' While running, Caleb tried his best to suppress the grin that was about to appear on his face. He was excited about the possibilities the Destiny Power System would offer to him.
After all, he had already tasted the sweetness. Just the gum gum rubber managed to increase his comprehensive capabilities.
Kicking the ground eight tis, Caleb accelerated like a speeding race car. Jin, Dunn, and Rina who were carrying Luna, Fatty, and Clifford channeled all the strength they had to their legs.
Under the astonished face of the guards, the eight entered the gate. However, they didn't dare to neglect it. They quickly closed the gate as they saw the horde of spiders and the queen outside the gate.
The gate began to lower, but it wasn't fast enough. Two of the spiders stumbled against each other as they tried to fit their bodies on the gate. Discover hidden stories at m,v l'e-
Caleb was about to take action when the two spiders. No... A hundred spiders exploded simultaneously.
Then four strong backs appeared, along with a strong pressure that would make everyone palpitate.
"This..." Caleb looked at the four n that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Unfortunately, the gate closed completely before he could even see the face-off between the Queen and the four. 'What a bum.'
"You guys. Don't just stand there. I must remind you that there's a procedure that survivors outside need to follow before being accepted into the city. Understand!? So follow us first."
Jin, Caleb, and others looked at the two guards and nodded. Procedure or what, they were glad that they managed to reach their goals.
"Can you help our friend here?" Caleb brought down Fatty to the ground gently. "He's bleeding internally and he might have suffered an injury internally..."
"Well, no worries. We would go first to the city's dical facilities to examine and assess your bodies. Don't worry, the city is just making sure that you guys don't carry a virus or potential disease that would cause a pandemic. And you're lucky. The director of the Facility is a good surgeon who can even reattach limbs. Your friend's internal organs are not that damaged, since he would have already died if that's the case."
...
Just like that, the two guards nad Albert, and Chris led them to quite an advanced dical facility. The City of Phenos managed to preserve and save a lot of technologies that ca from the prosperous ti, or before the invasion of the Apokalips. Although the technologies they preserve haven't reached 15% of the past. Caleb found out that even that 15% had left Earth in the dust.
They didn't have the ti to enjoy the scenery of the city along the way since their friend was on the brink of death.
The two guys are quite efficient at doing things after they reach the so-called advanced dical facility. It was a tall white building every door and window was made of transparent glass that brought Caleb to a realization that the City he was in might not look much outside, but they had so black technologies and advanced stuff. Although they are few and far between.
Two hours have passed. After entering the facility, they entrusted Fatty to the two guards who in turn would bring him to the director of the facility. Speaking of which, the inside of the facility looks futuristic. With scanning technologies and machines scattered around. According to the guards, advanced facilities such as the one they were currently in could only be counted on one hand. As for the rest of the city, and the people, the technology they can access isn't that advanced.
In those two hours, various people wearing different suits than the guards ca into the facility to interview them. The questions? Well, they asked where they ca from and how did they manage to surpass. It was Dunn, Jin, and Rina who answered the questions, though. After all, Caleb was just a 17-year-old teenager. As for how Jin and others answered. The three didn't lie... Of course; they didn't tell everything. They exclude so things such as Caleb's powers... After all, that was just sensitive, and they didn't want to cause trouble for Caleb.
The three told about the house, how long they lived there, and how it was invaded by a stray Apokalip, which forced them to take the risk of coming here. Then, they also describe the general process of the journey from the Quincy Mountain Range and Spider Town. After all, they can't really lie since they were with Tamasai in the entire journey. And Tamasai was a Destiny living in the city. Lying, given that fact, would just lead them into trouble. Fortunately, Tamasai already left before Caleb had awakened his ability, so he didn't know about Gum Gum Rubber.
After the interview, so of the staff inside the facility perford a comprehensive examination for them. Such as blood type and things that could detect viruses or diseases.
