While the change in scenery was not particularly surprising given what he had already experienced that day, Sento found himself quietly staring at the nature-laden scenery they had been transported to. At a glance, the abundance of greenery left the place feeling less like the result of an apocalypse and more like they had just arrived in some sort of deeply-forested area.

Said assumption was promptly thrown out the window once the composition of the region was taken as a whole. The unnatural structure in front of them quickly told Sento that nature had [i]long[/i] since claimed this region for itself; the skeleton that it was built on top of was simply obscured from their sight.

For what it was worth, that also meant that scrounging up whatever they needed to keep themselves afloat might not be the [i]worst[/i] of jobs. While the exact nature of the plants growing in the region would be nebulous with the who-knew-how-many generations of iteration between the world's end and now, surely there had to be [i]some[/i] things here that were close enough to what he was familiar with.

The steady rumbling of the ground underfoot was enough to pique his interest, though; if the smaller wildlife wasn't acting up because of it, then maybe it would be safe enough to get a closer look at the type of fauna that would've come about after—at the minimum—centuries of evolution.

"I think that the word 'cataclysm' was doing a lot of heavy lifting in Wynn's explanation," Kiryu remarked as he began to make his way towards the exit. "Going to be honest, I expected a lot more fire and lava at first, but I'm not going to complain about this."

After a brief moment of prescience, Fu Xuan would find that the helmeted figure in the distance would, in a few seconds, catch sight of the pair of girls and, provided they did not resolve the issue in time, begin to open fire upon them. The ensuing noise would naturally draw the attention of others present nearby, and if the two managed to handle the oncoming waves unscathed, then it would only be a matter of time before more enemies would join the fray. The window of opportunity to change that future was shortening, but the fact that it existed was enough to make a decision on how to proceed.

In that brief period of time, Miku's voice would come through the bracelet, though slightly less certain than Wynn's had been.

"Hello? This is Kohinata Miku speaking now," she said in response to Qingque's question. "By the looks of things on this terminal Miss Wynn gave me, it seems that the aliens you'll be engaging have gone through extensive genetic modification. It looks like they were made for fighting more than anything else, so I don't think they can be reasoned with if what I'm reading here is correct..."
