"Does Stephanie truly know how to reincarnate someone?" Carol asked softly outside of the lab capsule.
"How would I know? Anyway, we'll all die if Andy doesn't wake up." Jimmy glanced around at the mercenaries, with all their guns pointing at the both of them.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Carol frowned and looked toward Stephanie. She hoped that Stephanie would actually have the ability to do it otherwise, they'd all end up dead because of her.
"What did that lunatic, Andy, tell the mercenary leader before he killed himself?" Jimmy whispered a question to Carol, wanting to create a plan to escape.
He no longer believed that Stephanie knew the key to reincarnation. What he wanted now was to escape.
Carol glanced around carefully and said, "I don't know."
Surely, Andy had told the mercenary leader a secret code. But she didn't know what it was.
Jimmy cast Carol a dirty glance, wondering how she even became the leader of the Rebels when she knew nothing. No wonder they almost got wiped out by Genome Society.
She glared at him in return. "What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at a useless piece of trash," Jimmy replied, annoyed.
Carol's temper flared up. "Who are you calling a useless piece of trash now?"
Jimmy replied, "You're the useless piece of trash!"
Both of them started throwing punches at each other, garnering the attention of the mercenary leader. "What's the ruckus here?"
He then reached out to separate the both of them.
At that moment, Carol swiftly snatched the gun from one of the mercenaries and fired a shot. She then hid behind a nearby cover.
Jimmy took the opportunity to grab the gun of the mercenary who was shot dead and took cover behind the lab capsule.
The mercenary leader glanced indifferently at the two, who were hiding with their respective guns. "This is a foolish choice. You can never escape."
Jimmy and Carol exchanged glances. They had to work together to escape at this crucial moment.
Stephanie was carefully studying the data in the lab capsule, seemingly uninterrupted.
The mercenary leader had coldly opened fire as the others were caught in a chaotic fight. Gunshots could be heard, yet the lab capsule was not penetrated as it was made of bulletproof glass.
Stephanie remained calmly seated inside, never once sparing a glance outside.
Just as she was counting down, the electrical switch within the lab capsule was shot, plunging everything into darkness. Fortunately, the lab capsule had its own power supply.
"Idiots" Stephanie cursed, standing up when she heard the gunshots from the outside. She yelled angrily, "Stop it!"
Jimmy stopped shooting and turned to her. The crew members of the ship rushed over to fix the electrical switch and quickly restored its power.
Andy's clone subject woke up from the bed, seemingly cold and stiff. He inspected his own hands before reaching over to the mirror by the side to look at his reflection.
He started laughing before turning to look at Stephanie.
"Boss." The mercenary leader hurried in and looked at the clone subject nervously. He had gestured for the others to stop their fight for now.
Carol and Jimmy were warily hiding away. They were afraid that everyone would have to die if the clone subject couldn't answer Andy's secret code.
Stephanie watched Andy from the entrance.
Everyone held their breaths as they waited for Andy and the mercenary leader's exchange.
Nobody heard what Andy whispered to the mercenary leader, but the leader soon nodded and gestured for his men to put down their weapons.
Only then did Jimmy and Carol truly let out a relieved sigh.
"You did well." The mercenary leader gave Stephanie a thumbs-up.
Stephanie glanced at Andy coldly, asking, "Are you able to trust me now?"
