People started panicking, thinking there was a problem with their ears.
Some people tried to get away from the situation by running away in a hurry. The whole scene was filled with confusion.
My mind raced through various possibilities. I quickly ruled out the notion of an attack from other clusters; their inability to breach the barrier was a comforting thought.
The Quantum Pathogen from the higher dimension crossed my mind; could the architects be involved? Were they angry or trying to push me to learn more about the higher dimensions?

Oliv nudged my arm and yelled, "Max! What’s happe..." Her voice was cut off as the sound disappeared yet again.

Sensing immediate danger, I urgently instructed Veronica, Oliv, Milena, and Robert to drop to their knees and stay close.
