Chương 530: Alive

Khan kept his eyes on Wayne, but his mind worked at full speed. He had breathed that air and sensed that symphony. He knew where he was without needing additional clarifications.

'Lauter,' Khan realized. 'It makes sense.'

The bomb probably was part of a terrorist ploy, and Lauter was a perfect target due to its connection to the ships' fuel. The weapon would inflict a lot of damage to the Harbor if it exploded there.

Moreover, Lauter was mostly automated. It had many outposts with teams of soldiers and scientists, but the population density was relatively low. The casualties would be minimal, even with such a powerful bomb.

Traces of synthetic mana stretched in the distance and leaked out of the underground passage behind Wayne. Khan could confirm the presence of outposts or similar human settlements. He could also conclude that the bomb must have landed nearby. Yet, a problem remained.
