The news of Xinyuan waking up had spread fast through the Espers and Guides of the Sovereign Faction. Once the dust settled, everyone gathered in the meeting lounge, some sitting, some pacing, including Doctor Ruixin, the newest addition to their core team.
Before heading inside, Wenzhi paused in front of the high-security cell where Jingxin was being kept. He stared coldly at the monitor displaying the interior.
Despite being bound in heavy restraints and left on the floor for days without food or water, Jingxin didn't look nearly as broken as Wenzhi would have preferred.
Now that the crisis with the red-zone rift and Xinyuan's instability was handled, it was time to get back to business.
Xinyuan and Chenxi approached, their gazes tracking the footage over Wenzhi's shoulder. Without looking at either of them, Wenzhi spoke first. "The red zone is spreading."
Xinyuan kept his eyes on the monitor, but Chenxi snapped his head toward Wenzhi. "Is that what this meeting is about?"
