The small door slowly opened.
In the faint smell of disinfectant, Su Ming'an saw the scene inside.
Inside was not any kind of royal escape route, nor was it the so-called barrier.
...It was just a laboratory with various instruments laid out.
Soul Clan members wearing gloves and masks stood inside, each holding different instruments, as if they had been waiting for a long time.
The smell of disinfectant wafted from their bodies.
And Sevya, who should have been knocked out, was standing inside just fine, watching him like a predator waiting for its prey.
A crisp mechanical sound came from above the spiral staircase, and the path Su Ming'an had originally taken was completely locked down.
Just as the small door opened, Yuanyuan suddenly stepped behind him and pushed him in the back.
But the moment she reached out, Su Ming'an, as if he had anticipated it all along, grabbed her wrist and pulled her in with him.
"Bang!"
