"BOOM!!" A deafening explosion rang out. When the smoke finally cleared, Charles was shocked to find that the entire door hadn't budged an inch; the chains were far sturdier than he'd imagined.
"Doesn't matter if we can blow it open or not, we have no time to waste. Put all the explosives we brought onto it—every last one. Light the fuse and we get out." Charles's tone was tinged with urgency.
On the icy cold floor, an extra-long fuse was ignited. Without waiting for the bang, Charles led everyone as they bolted for the exit.
The group moved quickly through the lab. Thanks to the chaos caused by the Monsters, their retreat sped up considerably. But the closer they got to the exit, the more Mih surged in from the doorway. Even if they just looked like ordinary civilian Mih, they were just as tough to handle.
Now Charles and the others were like a tiny wooden boat battling monstrous waves, a single slip threatening to capsize them at any moment.
