Chapter 177 - 177: Breaking into the Enemy Base Part 2 (1/2)
”It's under this little cabin!” Dennis said as he pointed to a small secluded cabin in the woods.
Theo, who looked at this, was doubtful but soon considered that the actual base might be well underground.
”You're sure?” Theo set him down and asked.
”Yes, I am!” He spoke confidently of his declaration.
”Good.” Theo nodded and swept the entire region around him with his Divine Sense.
”It actually is this place, and there's a lot more kids and women here… but there's not a lot of men, and the men who are here are possibly the ones guarding this place.” Theo thought, helplessly. He could imagine what really happened, but he still had some hope since he could also sense the presence of some men a few miles away from here, and apparently, they were digging in a Mana stone mine.
”Anyway, I think it's best if I save children and women first, and after that, I can go over there.” Theo thought and said to Dennis, ”You should hide in a place nearby. I'll go in and save them all, okay?”
Although he wanted to help, too, Dennis could understand that he would turn out to be a hindrance, so he reluctantly nodded, ”Okay…”
Soon after, Theo used his illusions over the whole area and made sure that no one noticed his approach. He moved in serpentine form as fast as lightning. In a matter of seconds, he had already invaded the underground base.
It was not difficult for him to find the entrance; he just had to sweep over the whole place with his Divine Sense, and soon, he found the entryway, despite it being well hidden under a large rock.
Entering the room in question… his rage intensified, he could see the situation more or less with his Divine Sense, but observing what was before him with his own eyes… caused his anger to reach the heavens!
Inside the room were some deformed children and women, still alive in large glass jars, filled with some kind of clear liquid. The eyes of these women and children were totally lifeless, no different from being dead… maybe if they were really dead, it wouldn't be that horrendous. There were some children with four arms of different types of animals, a few even having either three or four legs.
Of course, they were not born that way. These experiments they were subjected to caused them to become these abominations. There were even some who had no skin on their bodies, exposing raw tissues.
Theo, who looked upon all this, wasn't sure what to do. ”Should I kill them and bring an end to their suffering? Or should I try to find a way to help them recover?”
He shook his head. Neither of the two options would be easy.
After thinking about it, Theo came to a decision and placed them all within his Dimensional Room for now. Theo felt that he could at least try to help them, but otherwise… well, he will decide when he gets to that point.
Sweeping his Divine Sense in every direction, he walked toward another room. He could see that this one had someone guarding it. At the front of the room was a large silver door, but it was utterly stained with red blood, giving it a sinister feeling.
”Who are you? How did you get here?”
