Book 4: Chapter 23
It was after midnight according to my body clock. That’s when I commenced my operation.
I was on the roof of the building where the Levs were being kept prisoners. As expected, even bars seemed to be closing up shop. So there was a silent atmosphere in the underground city. It’s as if the original silence of the mountain had been restored before it was dug into a city by the underground humans.
I had already called out to all 12 who were imprisoned in the cells and finished explaining what was going to happen next. It seems that the master sergeant’s approval led the crew members to trust me.
But there was one problem. To escape, we have no choice but to pass by the military building. The building is lit up throughout the night. So it’s highly likely that 12 people moving in a group will be found out.
Therefore, I prepared a solution.
(Now, time to raise the operation start signal.)
I looked across the huge dome. Located exactly in the opposite direction of the entrance I came in from was a huge warehouse with a large stockpile of mica mushrooms.
From the fact that mica mushrooms are cultivated on the roof of each building, they are not of rare value. Therefore, anyone can go in and out of the warehouse, and there are no lookouts.
The only problem was that there was a liquor store next to it. The liquor store was so tightly guarded that I almost felt sorry for the mica mushrooms. There were no lookouts at the store, but a huge iron door stood firm with an imposing lock.
