章 67: Iron Vanguards

Ethan stood in the expansive training center, deep in thought, as he reviewed the next steps in his plan. The spacious warehouse felt almost too quiet, save for the low hum of the overhead lights and the occasional murmur from Jessica and Lena, who were busy checking last-minute details.

Suddenly, a low rumble echoed outside the warehouse, growing louder by the second. Ethan's eyes narrowed as he turned toward the entrance, a hint of curiosity flashing. Jessica and Lena looked up, both equally intrigued by the sudden noise.

Within moments, a convoy of sleek, rugged vehicles pulled up to the warehouse's entrance. They resembled high-end military transport vehicles but with a refined, commercial twist—sleek matte finishes, tinted windows, and reinforced exteriors that hinted at their durability and strength. Each vehicle was marked with discreet logos, and their all-terrain tires suggested they were built for more than just city streets.
