Though he heard that the conservative faction still managed to gain control of some facilities in order to 'restore' the braindead Supreme Sage, Ves didn't think this was the right lab.
If the conservatives were truly in control here, then they would have occupied all of the floors! They have placed numerous engineers and guards in the power generation room that Ves and his men had initially entered.
"What is going on here?"
