"They're drilling?" Kai repeated.
Horcus nodded before continuing.
"Yes… But we didn't stay long. We encountered several mechanical soldiers inside, and we barely managed to escape. After that, those things began pursuing us."
"Did you see any humans inside?"
"Yes."
Horcus's answer came without hesitation.
"There were people inside the facility. Some were being held in those containers, while others were connected to machines. We couldn't tell whether they were still alive."
Kai narrowed his eyes.
That description sounded suspiciously similar to the experiments conducted by the Anima Civilization.
However, he still needed more information.
"How did you manage to escape?"
"We found another passage leading outside. Unfortunately, the mechanical soldiers noticed us before we could get everyone out. We lost several people during the escape, and the remaining soldiers kept chasing us."
Horcus lowered his head.
