“You’re from KI Canip?” The man on the screen stared at them with commanding authority
“I’m Lucas Keaton,” Lucas replied calmly.
Dr. Klein’s expression eased slightly. “I knew your grandfather.”
“General Keaton,” he continued, “we need your help. Please assist us in locking down all three basement levels. The payment we promised will be delivered in full
Theresa frowned. “Three floors? I thought there were only two?”
“There were,” Dr. Klein said grimly. “We just lost the third.
Theresa snorted. She couldn’t help herself–she laughed out loud.
“And who are you?” He snapped, annoyed by her gloating laughter.
“Dr. Klein, she’s… my sister,” Lucas answered quickly.
“When did your grandfather get another granddaughter?” He asked, suspicious.
“She’s his daughter,” Lucas said curtly. “Let’s not get into it. She’s family.”
Dr. Klein grunted, mildly appeased. “Fine. Just get over here quickly.”
“Wait a minute, Theresa said, smiling brightly. “We haven’t finalized the price.”
Dr. Klein: “What?”
“One price for the second floor, and a separate one for the third,” she said sweetly. “Double the rate, since it’s higher risk–200 thousand gleamstones and 200 thousand tons of food.”
Dr. Klein: …That’s daylight robbery!”
“I’m being generous for only charging double, ” she said, still smiling. “If you think that’s too much, fine- we’ll stick to your original deal. We’ll clear the second floor, and you pay us what you promised. The third floor? You can handle that yourself,”
He stood stunned, speechless.
“Better hurry,” she added. “If you take any longer, your fourth floor will fall too–and that’ll be a whole new rate. Or hey, you can always wait for one of the other Ark Camps to rescue you. If you’re rich enough to stall, go ahead.” Newest update provıded by.net
He gritted his teeth, staring at the girl on the screen. “Fine. 200 thousand it is. Get it started!”
“Deal!” Theresa replied cheerfully.
Thanks to her “friendly” negotiation, the two sides reached a ‘mutually satisfying agreement. Dr. Klein sent over a set of high–level access codes and detailed floor maps.

Their task was to enter the compound and manually activate the floor locks on each level
As the team arrived at the entrance of the bunker, a massive, reinforced security door stood before them Lucas did not hesitate and input the lengthy password
Ding
“S–Level Authorization. Access Granted”
The door–previously inaccessible even to residents–slid open.
It was clear now, after the outbreak, Ark One had revoked all standard resident access. No one without top clearance could come or go.
The Ark One residents, seeing the door open, lit up with hope. They watched Theresa and her team walk in and quickly moved to follow them without a second thought.
They had no choice. They were on the open plains. There was nowhere else to hide. If a zombie wave hit now, what could they do? They’d be slaughtered. Even a fool would follow them inside.
“You guys planning to tag along?” Theresa asked flatly.
“This is our home! What’s wrong with going home?” Yuki shot back defensively.
She didn’t like that Theresa was the only woman in the group. It irritated her. She felt the need to start something.
If Lucas had been the one asking, she wouldn’t have said a word.
Theresa didn’t take offense. She simply smiled and stepped closer. “You’re going home, huh?”
“Yeah, ” Yuki said, arms crossed. “This is the road for our camp. It’s my way home. It’s none of your
business.
The next second, she went flying from Theresa’s slap, and with a crisp ding, the bunker door slammed shut behind her.
“There. Try coming back in now,” Theresa said, dusting off her hands.
Finally. That felt amazing!
Outside the sealed door, Yuki stood in stunned silence.
She held her cheek, blinking at the locked door.
What the hell?
Did she actually just lock me out?
“Ahhh!”
She screamed, pounding her fists against the door.
She didn’t have a password.

Her ID card didn’t even work.
How was she supposed to get in?
Inside, Theresa turned to the rest of the group, her tone casual,
“You’re welcome to follow us–but just so we’re clear, this is the minimum of what happens if you piss us
of
No one uttered a single reply.
That was just the minimum?
