Boom!
A muffled explosion rang out again. The already tilted floor suddenly shook like an earthquake, and amid a chorus of screams, people toppled like rag dolls.
The floor beneath the Gas Circulation System suddenly bulged. A jet of molten orange metal punched through it and erupted like a volcano, swallowing the machine Xia Lun had just repaired!
Electric light flashed, briefly illuminating the dark room. A huge, ghostly blue face rose from the burning machine. It growled and swiped its claws at the people sprawled on the floor!
Bang!
With a sharp sonic boom, the flat-haired attendant beside the man in the pink suit kicked off the floor and charged straight at the Giant Electronic Ghost. He flicked a finger, and with several sharp clicks, his walking stick transformed into a serrated chainsword!
Spinning teeth met luminous blue claws. A shock wave burst outward, splitting the silver-gray wall and sending rubble and blood flying!
"Run!" Manhunter cried. "The facility's done for! Get to the escape pods!"
The moment Manhunter spoke, everyone who had recovered their senses scrambled toward the room's entrance. Only Roman remained where she was, excitedly holding up her camera.
"Click, click, click—"
"Stop taking pictures. We need to run." Xia Lun grabbed Roman's wrist with his right hand and Manhunter's collar with his left, then headed after the crowd.
In this Scenario, he intended to keep his head down and let others do the heavy lifting. The Giant Electronic Ghost was terrifying. He would leave it to the so-called Level IV Security Officer!
The crowd scattered, but the armed guards at the doorway pushed against the tide of people and charged toward the Electronic Ghost.
"Turn left at the first entrance! The escape pods are that way!" shouted the guard who had initially stopped Xia Lun
