Nina felt a bit bewildered by this. "I''m not sure."
Everything she knew felt incredible. Seth had already disappeared into the rushing waterfall, and there was no sign of him. They had no choice but to return the way they came.
Theb was in disarray, but it had not changed much. Nash thought about what was inside and hesitated. "Maybe you shouldn''t go in."
"Why not?" Nina asked. "You were just asking me about the mechanisms inside. I need to go in to understand."
Nash frowned slightly. "The things inside theb are not easy to look at."
"So that''s what you''re worried about," Nina realized. "It''s okay. I''ve heard about so many unbelievable things already. Nothing can scare me now."
She reassured Nash, showing her inner strength.
As they walked in, she was still shocked by the cruel extent of theb''s contents. There were human organs used for some kind of experiments and various deformed animals from failed experiments.
Caged animals were screaming, with one monkey having self-harmed to the point of bleeding fingers. The smell was a mix of blood and chemicals, nauseating.
"Wilfred," Nina saw Wilfred standing in the center, holding a test tube with gloved hands.
Wilfred turned, relieved to see she was okay. He said, "I''m d you''re safe. But there''s bad news. The test tubes here aren''t the real deal. They''re probably fakes." "Fakes?" Nash''s expression turned serious. "That old fox!"

James, worried about Nash''s safety, suggested, "Captain, let me go first."
They wanted to protect Nash too.
Nash looked at them coldly, saying, "If a simple tunnel stops us, how will we handle bigger threats in the future?"
James did not insist further. Nash tightly held Nina''s hand as they slowly descended the stairs, leading her down.
Nervous, Nina gripped his hand tightly, ignoring their strained rtionship for the moment. They worked together, moving forward.
The path was dark, and the initial team that chased Seth had stopped here, unable to see and afraid to make a move.
Every step Nina took felt like a race against her fears, the dark environment suffocating. Her heart trembled with each step.
"It will be okay," Nash reassured her gently. "We''re almost through."C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
His encouragement helped calm Nina''s nerves until she noticed the sound of their footsteps suddenly bing hollow. She immediately became alert and warned, "Stop!"
Nash immediately halted.
