Clyde did not move forward. He and Mina stayed where they were while half-hidden behind the corner of a collapsed building, close enough to see but far enough to retreat if needed.
Dust still hung in the air from the fallen building, drifting slowly between broken streetlights.
Mina shifted her weight, her eyes following the group as they spread out again.
For a moment, she thought Clyde intended to move on and search for another target.
Instead, he decided to stay here longer.
"Qe need to watch this," Clyde said. "If we ever run into them later, I want to know what they can do."
Mina considered that, then nodded. It made sense. Knowing an enemy's skills mattered just as much as raw power.
They stayed where they were.
Ahead of them, the group had already found another target.
A moving house dragged itself out from between two taller buildings. It was smaller than the office structure before, a squat two-story residential block with cracked walls and a sagging roof.
