Chapter 271: Mission

"Khan, can you take care of it?" Lieutenant Leville asked.

"Another one?" Khan commented while peeking past the corner to inspect a metal wall that blocked the path.

"They are trying to slow us down," Lieutenant Leville sighed. "Though I don't understand why unless they can expand the underground structure in a matter of weeks."

"It would defeat the labs' purpose to expand deeper into their territory," Khan commented while coming out of the corner and approaching the wall.

"And we can't leave the area assigned to the thirty-seventh battalion," Lieutenant Leville added. "Well, we shouldn't, at least."

'It's about time for us to go out too,' Khan thought before stretching his fingers to give his hand the shape of a sword.
