Ivy set the report aside and leaned back, her expression calm but firm.
"It will be dangerous," she admitted, "but danger is something we can never eliminate. We can only manage it."
Annie's brows furrowed. Ivy could clearly see her worry; she always wore her heart a little too openly when she wasn't paying attention.
"That's why," Ivy continued, "the luring zone will have triple-layered barricades and watchtowers. If a zombie breaks out of the fighting path, the guards can shoot it before it reaches the city's edge. And as for people turning mid-fight…"
She paused, tapping the table with her finger. "Everyone entering that zone will undergo a mandatory health check. No exceptions. If they show the slightest symptom, they won't be let in."
Annie slowly nodded, reassured but still uneasy. "Still… it sounds like a lot of pressure on you."
