They were attempting to tame mutants, transforming these freakish monsters into their own pets!
This plan was extremely dangerous, but the illegal forces of Dark City had already achieved some success.
The aberrations that showed up in the Food Storage of the Third Underground Level were a prime example.
Blackbone Hermit Kodar and his alchemy slaves were responsible for spreading the aberration disaster in the underground area of Sector 7.
They manually transported aberration eggs, placing them on various underground levels, periodically patrolling and monitoring breeding data, like raising aberrations, and this Fissure Corridor was their pasture in their eyes.
Noland Lee had caused quite a commotion when he was clearing the food warehouse before, alerting Kodar and causing the earlier battle.
