While Ragna followed the black car, lody couldn't help but notice Kanaria's expression. "What's wrong, Kanaria?"
Kanaria replied with a request. "Can you search Master Genzert on Skynet? Who is he?"
lody hurriedly searched for the na and said, "Genzert is a master explorer whose work is not in the line of exploration but in the research departnt. His na is Ryan Genzert. He is a professor in the field of geology. There isn't much that can be found here. He is a clean guy, so other than basic information, I can't find anything. But it states here that Erwin Genzert is his adopted son."
Clovis furrowed his eyebrows. This explained why Erwin told them to ntion his na. However, there was sothing weird about this information.
"Hmm. When I investigate Erwin, his background is that he actually cos from a big family background. Why would such a person adopt Erwin?" lody frowned.
"No. That's not important right now." Kanaria pinched the bridge of her nose.
"What's wrong?" lody turned serious, wondering if there was a detail she missed.
"If you think about it, would the soldier have that much respect for a re professor? Rember that our world respects strength right now. So his na shouldn't be that powerful. Is he a Tier 7 or sothing?" Kanaria asked.
"No. It's said that he is a normal person."
"See? It's rather suspicious. It feels like he is being highly regarded for no reason. It's not that I'm trying to insult Erwin, but there must be sothing wrong in this city, to the point where such a person becos a highly important person."
"Aren't you thinking too much about this?" Jay asked nonchalantly.
"No. If you take a look at the map, you will realize that the supply route is from Serrest City, which is located to the north. There are no other cities that are still standing that can beco their supply line. If you think it that way, the number of supplies that are being transported to the city is much lower than what a city needs."
"Wait. Are you talking…" Clovis frowned.
"Yes. If you look at their supply line, you will understand the situation. This is why I love logistics in the first place." Kanaria looked at the city. "Take a look at the citizens around you."
They turned their eyes to the people on the street. They noticed that their expression was quite dark as though they didn't have their energy. Their bodies were not thin, so the only thing that ca to their minds was one word. Depression.
"The city looks like they are grieving. Then, if we take the alert state as well as the low number of supply containers, there might be a serious problem in this city. Sothing that even high-tier people can't do anything about."
"!!!" Everyone inside the car gulped. They didn't think Kanaria could reach that conclusion by only observing the city.
"And that problem is…" Clovis paused, wanting to know the root of the problem.
"I can speculate. It's probably sothing related to the hole leading to the underground city. This is the only reason why the city doesn't have a lot of supply trucks going in and out. In other words, you can say that those trucks are most likely food supplies."
"Food supply? How do you know?"
"It's just speculation. Besides, it'll explain everything. You know that the underground city is the main source of food, right? The at is being brought from the underground city. If sohow the tunnel can't be accessed, they have no choice but to import food. And the tunnel is made of stone… A person like Professor Genzert would definitely be respected in this situation.
It can be said that he is one of the most important people right now."
Clovis looked down, falling into deep thought. He fully understood the current situation because of Kanaria. While they didn't know the exact details, they already got the gist of it. Still, he was a bit surprised that Kanaria was able to deduce all of this from logistics alone. It seed that he had underestimated her talent.
"I will call Erwin first since we have arrived at the city." Clovis imdiately called Erwin since it would be awkward if they ended up eting his father first.
"Clovis? You've arrived?" Erwin's voice sounded even more hurried. He could clearly hear the sign of shortness of breath.
"Yeah. We're currently being guided by the soldiers to, I don't know, maybe you have specified the location."
"Oh. That's great. I'll be standing outside the building when you arrive."
"Sounds good."
Once they got confirmation, the car beca silent once again as Kanaria kept observing the city. It took them about ten minutes before they reached the heart of the city.
They were guided to a tall building not far from the Explorer Association. Erwin was already waiting for them as well.
"Yo. You're here." Erwin waved his hand while they were opening their windows. "Just park here."
"Okay." Clovis and his team exited the car as Kanaria couldn't contain her curiosity anymore and asked, "Erwin. I'm sorry if this is rude, but is the underground tunnel not accessible right now?"
"Mhmm?" Erwin raised his eyebrows, looking shocked. "Did soone leak the news?"
"No. I just reached that conclusion from what I found so far." Kanaria shook her head.
"I see. I thought we had been hiding it well. I guess it's fine to show you what's currently happening in this city, which is why I'm unable to join you right now. Of course, if you can solve that problem, I will join your group right away. Anyway, please follow ." Erwin sighed.
The atmosphere between them turned serious as soon as they arrived. Erwin guided them toward the Explorer Association.
There were a lot of soldiers and workers that weren't supposed to be here filling this building. They all appeared to be rushing sothing.
"As I said earlier, the city's situation has changed from bad to worse. I don't know how you are able to reach that conclusion, but you're right. The underground is inaccessible, and there are nurous problems due to it. Anyway, this is what's currently happening to the underground tunnel." Erwin pointed at the tunnel inside the building, showing the true state of the problem.
All of them widened their eyes in shock. Clovis gasped. "This is…"
