Out Into The Boons.

Many people threw his side glances for talking to no one, but no one bothered to point it out. They followed their boss into one of the large buildings at the edge of the farm. 

These buildings are factories for processing the harvested fruits of the vines into red dust. They also contain some living spaces for the members of the workforce that still require them. 

All of them bore the same signs of incursion as the walls. They were broken up in several places. Certain parts also had more colors and materials than the other parts of the buildings. 

One of them is the armory. They were led into it and told to have their pick. Unfortunately, they could only pick two weapons each. It was like being led into a buffet and told they couldn't eat all they could stomach. 

He picked a sniper rifle and a handgun. He did so while watching his fellow hired hands clearly. He was looking for anyone too familiar with guns beyond the level of skill. Those are the signs of a weapon-class super. 

He doesn't plan to attack every weapon class super he finds. He is not crazy. He only plans those worthy of having their ability stolen. In fact, they would have to be incredible for them to make the cut. As it is, they were falling far below the threshold of anything worth his attention. 

They eventually were sorted into living quarters for those who wanted to stay behind and protect the farm. The rest of them went to the briefing room to see the maps of Blue Crystals facilities. 

There was a copy of the maps for everyone. Then those who wanted to venture out were given bikes for transportation. Kelvin was part of them. He got a bike and a survival pack. Then he left the farm behind.

His destination was one of the many abandoned cities of earth before the incursions. Many organizations use them as hideouts for storing their stash or as bases of operation if they can't afford the taxes of a city or are avoiding people. 

It took two hours to reach his destination. One thing he noticed was that it wasn't walled. There was almost no demarcation to indicate where the city began and ended. 

This lack of differentiation became worse because of the overgrown flora in the city. The ancient concrete buildings had been battered by the incursion and were falling apart. This made it easy for the city to be slowly transformed into a forest. Colorful trees were growing out of buildings, and bright animals were roaming about. 

There was also the occasional incursion zombies but they were too slow to keep up with him. 

He didn't drive straight to his destination, though. He had to stop his bike far away from it so that those he was going to meet wouldn't hear the sound of his engines and become alert to his presence. 

So he had to walk the rest of the way. That meant he had to deal with the zombies and he had to deal with them silently. 

It was easy to kill them silently. He just had to cut off their heads with his claws. But he couldn't draw too much attention to himself by allowing a zombie hoard to form. So he prioritized hiding and escaping from them. 

It took him an hour to reach the cluster of buildings he was after. All the detours he took made him waste a lot of time. It also took him time to ascend a skyscraper without elevators. He had to climb the stairs and examine each floor as candidates for a vantage point.

He stopped when he found a floor with sufficient sight access to the Blue Gang facility that wasn't full of too much plant life. It was about two-thirds up the skyscraper. 

He took out a bedroll, which he laid on the ground. Then he began putting the sniper rifle together. He made sure to take his time with the process while eyeing the facility below him a couple of blocks away. 

He couldn't see much from his position. All he could see was that there were guards patrolling the facility. He had to use his binoculars to tell their figures apart. 

The facility looked like a prison. It had several walls, turrets, and manned towers, and the windows were barred. What's most odd about it is the use of a blue crystal to plug the holes in the walls and to reinforce the buildings. 

"This looks like it will be easier to get into than to get out of. Not that getting into it will be easy." 

Wrath sighed and said, "Now we wait." 

He nodded. "Yes, we wait. Hopefully, we don't have to wait until my next game." 

He could infiltrate the facility, but it is too risky. The information Red Dream gave them was not complete. For one, he doesn't know the layout of the facility.

If he were to enter the facility now, he would essentially be wandering about. His odd movements might draw attention, but he will certainly draw attention if he asks for direction.

That is, if he can even manage to gain access to the facility at all. He doesn't know what their security and alarm systems are. He might not even be able to wander about aimlessly. He might just walk into a trap.

And if something goes wrong, he will have a lot of difficulty escaping since he is not familiar with the environment and the security protocols. 

Secondly, the dossier only contained information about the subordinates of Blue Crystal. It said nothing about any hired help. There is bound to be hired help since tensions have already escalated to this point.

So not only is he lacking in knowledge of the location, he is lacking in the knowledge of the people. Those are dangerous enough, but there is more. 

The last problem is the problem of his fellow hired help. He is not alone on this mission, so if he infiltrates the enemies, his teammates might mistake him for one of the enemies.
