Chapter 192: Tempestechnologies II
The Incubus System Chapter 192. Tempestechnologies II
Our feet moved quickly through the rooms and neatly arranged desks. Around us, the specters flew around, going through desks, chairs and walls without making any sound. Occasionally, Emma swept her gaze in caution and stopped her steps when one of them passed in front of us or rather went through our bodies.
We arrived in front of the meeting room, next to Myra's room.
"Open the door," I ordered. We couldn't go into Myra's room, because I was sure the securities didn't have the key.
The security swiped his card followed by a beep.
* Beep *
The door opened and the security turned on the lights as we entered into a large meeting room dominated by warm wood colours with a long black table with neatly lined up chairs. A large TV was attached to one side of the wall with a large whiteboard with a projector hanging on the other side.
'Demonic Form Activated.'
My wings appeared on my back as I continued to walk towards the window.
[You have activated your Demonic Form.]
[Fly has been activated.]
[All skills effectiveness + 30%.]
"Open the window," I ordered again. The securities rushed past me, unlocked the window in front of us and opened it. The strong night wind combed our faces and hair since we were at a high place.
I looked through the window to make sure no one was around the building.
"Close the window after we leave and wait for us in the lobby," I instructed the securities.
After they answered me, without hesitation, I jumped out of the window and flapped my wings towards the next room. I used my Telekinesis skill to open the window's lock from within and opened it wide. Then I turned my gaze to Yuffy and Emma who were watching me from the previous window.
"They found nothing but the lab. No secret labs, no secret rooms, no secret storages, no weird devices. Nothing."
"Whatever the outcome, we just have to do our best," I said. After all, this was just my wild guess.
The elevator door opened, we walked through the dim corridor to a large door with the sign 'Warning! Restricted Area '.
As before, the security swiped his card and opened the door. We entered a pure white room filled with dim blue light emanating from the huge tubes containing the magic energy. A device that resembled a half gauntlet half bracelet was in the middle of it. I recognized it, it was Myra's device that was used to imitate the Holy Chain and the Mana Strike. On the other side of that room, were desks with computer monitors, devices used to monitor and regulate that place's magic power and ensure it remained stable. These were important devices because once the flow of that magic power went chaotic, it would explode.
We quickly split up, racing against time to check if there were any objects or devices related to Myra's slavery plans. Like something similar to the medieval Magic Collar or maybe their documents or research results. But after we searched for a while and we couldn't find anything, we finally decided to check the magic device.
Although we wanted to check it from the start, that was the last thing we wanted to check since the magic power covered the device, if we made a mistake then an explosion could occur at any time. And judging by the magic power in those tubes, it should be enough to destroy this whole building.
"How do we check it?" I asked. My eyes and Yuffy looked at the device. I could faintly feel the magic power's flow from there, just like Pearl's Demon Shield. What distinguished it, was that the device's magic power was much greater and a little unstable. Now I understood why it exploded a few years ago. Besides, unlike the Demon Hunter, I didn't feel any Holy element from there.
"We can check it out with this," said Emma, who had just come beside me. Her hand was holding the 'magic item appraisal' she had just found in the room. Like when her father checked Pearl's Bracelet, Emma brought the device closer to that Bracelet and we could see the flow of blue magic energy inside of it.
But only briefly, she shook her head.
"It can't be used to capture demons or enslave anyone. The magic power flow is too wild and unstable, it's a weapon."
Just as those words left Emma's mouth, Yuffy spoke.
"Damian, we have to get out now. It's almost thirty minutes!"
"Tsk." I clicked my tongue in annoyance. Either because my guess was wrong or our investigation results were in vain. Then I turned to the securities who were waiting for us.
"Forget about this incident, lock this place and return to your post," I ordered.
"Yes, sir," they said. And they did what I told them.
While Emma returned the 'magic item appraisal' to its place and Yuffy cancelled her Necromancy skill.
I stretched out my hand and opened my portal skill to the earlier alley as my eyes glanced at the CCTVs around us and could see the red light had blinked, indicating the devices would turn on soon.
As soon as my portal opened, we quickly ran into it without saying anything.
