The sight lit a spark of excitement among the guards, like wanderers spotting an oasis after a long trek through the desert.
Moments later, Vulture and his team reached the front of the shelter.
"Who are you people?" one of the guards called out, his tone sharp but wary, clearly trying to ensure they weren't a threat.
"We came from City B's HOPE Base. We're here at Adam's request…" Vulture explained openly, holding nothing back. After all, it was the truth, and it was impossible these people weren't already aware of Adam's plans.
Sure enough, once his words settled, the crowd exchanged glances before one of them stepped forward toward Vulture. In response, Vulture retrieved a copy of the mission notice, one that had been entrusted to the STAU for safekeeping, and handed it over.
