Benik orders lethal pursuit

The air conditioning plant becomes a focal point of the manhunt after Benik deduces the fugitives’ escape route. Its labyrinthine ducts and machinery transform it from a mundane utility into a deadly chokepoint, where the regime’s guards are stationed to intercept the fugitives. The plant’s role here is tactical, as it represents the last known point of contact before the fugitives could reach the streets. Its mention in Benik’s orders elevates its significance, turning it into a battleground where the resistance’s survival hangs in the balance.

Before: A functional but overlooked part of the city’s infrastructure, unnoticed by the regime until the fugitives’ escape.
After: A heavily guarded and monitored zone, with guards deployed to cover all exits and ducts, turning it into a trap for the fugitives.
