Chapter 91: The Final Door

Nyla's team was pinned down by gunfire, the alarms blaring throughout Solas's stronghold. The guards were relentless, forcing them to take cover behind whatever they could find. Each second wasted was another victory for Solas on the battlefield outside. The resistance couldn't hold out much longer without Nyla's plan succeeding.

"We need to breach that door now!" Nyla shouted, her voice barely audible over the gunfire.

She glanced toward the control room just a few meters ahead, the entrance heavily fortified. Inside, Solas was still directing his army, unaware of just how close Nyla and her team were to breaking his control. If they could get in and disable his communications network, they could turn the tide of the battle.

But the guards weren't letting up. They were Solas's elite forces, trained and prepared for this exact scenario. Nyla's team was at a disadvantage, but they had one ace up their sleeve—technology.

Nyla turned to her lead hacker, Zane. "Can you break the door's security system?"

Zane nodded, already working to bypass the security protocols. "I'll need a few minutes."

"We don't have a few minutes," Nyla said grimly.

"Just keep them off me," Zane muttered, his hands flying over the controls.

Nyla signaled to the rest of the team, and they returned fire, trying to hold the guards at bay while Zane worked. Time felt like it was slipping away, but finally, Zane grinned.

"Got it!" The door's locking mechanism clicked open.

"Move!" Nyla commanded, and the team surged forward, breaking through the door and rushing into Solas's command center.
