In an instant, the runes pulsed, and the bodies vanished, replaced by sleek storage capsules.
Mai collected the capsules with the bodies inside and turned to the team.
"I've taken care of the bodies," she said, her voice steady. "Let's get out of here before anything else happens."
Sid and Liam nodded; their adrenaline still high from the close call.
Ram started the truck, and the team quickly climbed back inside, eager to leave the eerie forest behind.
As they drove away, something unsettling caught their eyes. The path was littered with dead bodies of various monsters, their wounds still fresh and clearly inflicted by a powerful force.
The sight was disturbing, and it was evident that someone—had been through this area recently, leaving a gruesome trail of destruction.
Mai furrowed her brow, scanning the bodies as they drove by. "These wounds don't match the old woman's weapons or her robots," she said, her voice tinged with concern.
