Chapter 640
Back in her room, Aria grabbed some paper and a pen and spent half an hour sketching a map of the experimental base.
She marked several spots on the map. They were potential sniper nests that she suspected.
After several days of casual reconnaissance, Aria identified three potential sniper positions, with several others still under
assessment.
She thought, This experimental base’s security is top-notch. It’s equipped with armed guards, and maybe even explosives. I need to check it out myself. Maybe this place and the storage labs have the highest level of security.
Finally, Aria pinpointed a spot, which was the rooftop of the warehouse area, blanketed by full surveillance.
At 10 p.m., Aria reached out to Owen and told him what had happened lately. She said, “I’m safe here. Flynt means no intent to kill me.”
Owen thought, ‘Flynt truly harbors no intent to kill because he likes Madelyn. That scheming guy is always making trouble. So damn annoying.
‘Flynt started laying his plans so early. White’s whereabouts were exposed, and he was hunted by the Solemnity Guild and finally ended up in Flynt’s clutches. Likely, all of this is just a trap Flynt set to lure Madelyn to Torrenia.
Owen said, “Madelyn, blowing up the lab is secondary. Your safety comes first.”
“I see. I know what I’m doing,” Aria replied.
Aria never abandoned the idea of blowing up the lab, but she wouldn’t act recklessly. Though Flynt’s experiments may not be illegal, they certainly didn’t benefit the nation. Aria hoped she could destroy the lab without harming others.
Owen couldn’t help with this because the security protocols were so strict that no outsiders could get in.
Aria said, “Don’t worry. Opportunities are there to be made. Besides, I’m not doing it alone. Margery is with me. With her help, it’ll save us a lot of trouble.”
She thought, ‘Pearl has good hypnosis skills, and so does Margery. There’s also Luna. She wants out, and so do others. But they just can’t.’
Aria decided to have Luna give it a shot.
The base was severely lacking in people with genuine vitality. Luna, with her lively, unconventional personality, always believed Aria could get her out. She wasn’t afraid of stepping on anyone’s toes.
Luna even dared to stand up to Flynt, so Aria was not worried about her getting hurt.
Aria asked, “When are you heading to the Solemnity Guild?”
Owen replied, “Barring any surprises, we’re setting off the day after tomorrow.”
Owen was about to continue when the door suddenly slid open.
Wilson stood in the doorway, glaring at Owen with barely contained anger. Wilson asked, “Didn’t I tell you to inform me when she contacts you?”
Owen showed no guilt at being caught. He glanced up at him coolly and said, “We just started talking. I was about to text you.”

With his face full of disbelief, Wilson barged in and reached out to grab the phone. “Cut the crap. Hand it over.”
Owen raised his hand, deftly evading Wilson’s grab. Owen darkened his gaze and asked, “How did you get my room passcode?”
Wilson snapped impatiently. “This isn’t the time for that. Hand me the phone. I need to talk to Aria”
