Rendezvous

Ceningmis, at the periphery of the main city area.

Genava and the military exoskeleton-wearing Shang Jianyao walked to the suburbs from under a bridge. They didn't return the way they came; the latter also hid his human consciousness the entire time to prevent them from being discovered by the Eighth Research Institute members summoned by the gigantic feline creature.

The rash Shang Jianyao suggested laying an ambush for a counterattack, but the motion was rejected by the other Shang Jianyaos before it entered a vote. This was because they didn't know how many people the Eighth Research Institute had stationed in Ceningmis and what their overall strength was.

Even if Vice President, Professor Li, and the other New World powerhouses weren't carried over and were sleeping here to preside over the area, it was already tough enough for the Old Task Force to deal with two to three Awakened who had explored the Mind Corridor's depths.
