Chapter 138: Initiation Ceremony
In an apartment South of the city, a group of eight people sat together in a room that resembled both a study and a conference room.
They were discussing something that ordinary people would probably not understand. However, it was obvious that the topic was important to all of them.
One man asked no one in particular, "Have you located her?"
The rest kept quiet for a while before a young woman who seemed to be only in her early twenties replied.
"Her life signature has lit up, but we can’t determine her exact location. We are also afraid of being too obvious and aggressive in our search and end up alerting the enemy."
"What about her protector? Is he alive as well or is she alone?" The man asked another equally confusing question.
"He is with her. When her life signature lit up, his flashed as well. They should be together." The girl who answered the earlier question replied again.
"Do you think they have awakened?" Another young man dressed like a superstar even in the apocalyptic world asked a question that seemed to be in everyone’s minds but no one dared to ask.
There was a loud silence in the room that lasted a full two minutes before the man, who could be assumed to be the leader, spoke again.
