On the ground.
A massive gathering place was situated there.
Though its area was much smaller compared to the colossal Steel City, the level of security within its walls far exceeded that of a typical large gathering place.
Watchtowers stood everywhere.
All manner of defensive fortifications were in place.
The guards' gazes were sharp and piercing.
They were ever-vigilant against any potential threats.
At this moment, inside the conference room of a tall building, the atmosphere was heavy enough to be suffocating. The silence was absolute.
You could have heard a pin drop.
The oppressive atmosphere felt like the calm before a storm, making one's chest tighten and breathing difficult.
A group of Evolvers stood neatly to one side, their expressions varied.
Without exception, all of their gazes were focused on the figure at the head of the room.
After hearing his subordinate's report, Mukedo's expression instantly grew as dark and stormy as a tempestuous night sky.
