Chapter 184: Sealing The Flesh Pt.2

Lake saw how fast the attack that came out of the flesh shot out and was happy the guy in charge of the formation had been able to dodge it in time. "Suppress it." Lake and the others all snapped into action doing what they had come to do. He was here to help keep the man controlling the formation until the flesh was sealed so that's what he did.

Stepping in front of the man, Lake held up his barriers in front of them both just as the first barrage of Life and Antimagic spells hit the flesh. Lake saw the effect of the spells on the flesh almost instantly and thought it was dead because it became completely still for a few seconds. He was clearly not the only one who thought this because Freed had enough time to say. "Maybe we overestimated it." Before it started to move again.

The flesh wasted no time in sending out another attack at the one controlling the formation but since he was there all it did was knock one of his barriers a few feet back from where he had been holding it. He had learned earlier that strong attacks could move his barriers so he hadn't been holding it right in front of them so it wouldn't crash into them if it received a hard enough attack.

After that Lake and the others just kept it suppressed with a constant barrage of spells every few seconds until it had been completely sealed. The disgusting ball of moving flesh was now completely still and looked like it had been cast in metal so he and the others had finished the job and could now discuss what they should do with the sealed monster.

They couldn't just leave it here because all someone needed to do to free it was damage the seal and it would wear off and the creature would be back to normal in no time. Lake had an idea of how to get it out of here though. "Grendia, could you raise us all to street level with a stone platform?"

If she was able to do that they would have the hardest part done and all they would have to do is get it to a big elevator to ride with it back to the surface. Once they were there they could just leave it in the hands of the guild's people and they could come back to deal with the other locations he had found earlier.

"I can but it'll be faster if it's just me and it that I have to lift up to the street. The rest of you should walk up using the stairs." Lake could understand that if they went up with her she would have to move more stone which would take her longer so he said. "You sure you don't want any of us with you just in case?"

In his mind he was sure they were actually a better choice to deal with something like this since they were probably capable of laying another formation if it became necessary to do so. With them showing up, Lake wondered if the situation had become more urgent and every person who could help in the city was now active in the field instead of just leaving it up to the Fighters guild.

He was sure the fact that the word had gotten out to the general population had made sure other groups had to step in publicly so that people wouldn't blame them if anything happened while they just watched but even if that was the case he had to say he was happy they had more people helping because he was starting to feel he might have to leave soon so he wouldn't get caught up in whatever was going to happen at some time tomorrow.

With the people from the temple taking charge of the flesh they were able to go back down to the 21st tier. Freed seemed to be thinking the same thing and he turned to the large group they had gathered over the course of the day and said. "Are you all going to stay with us? We have another lead that has some substance to it."

Freed was talking about the building Lake had seen the Demon Worshiper go inside earlier. He had told Freed in detail about that place and they felt like it was more important than the house he had seen Demon Worshipers just living in. They had three other groups plus the few that had come to help seal the flesh so they had around twenty people with them now.

Lake felt they didn't need that many people for what they were about to do but he wouldn't say no if they wanted to come with them because it would just give him more people to impress in the hopes they would tell masters about him. So far he was pretty sure the four on his team were impressed with his scouting abilities so he was pretty sure Masters would hear about that and give him a mission to find more Demon Worshipers if the guild started to run out of leads.

They didn't seem to have that problem yet though so maybe he could show off his combat abilities a little more today and get put on a solo kill mission tomorrow. He was sure Masters would want to use every person he could tomorrow once the time started to run out. "We're going to return to the guild for now. You five seem to have the 21st tier under control so we want to see if there's somewhere we can be of more help."

This came from one of the leaders of one of the groups that had joined them and after he said this the other two group leaders echoed what the first leader had said and walked back towards the guild. After a while they were left with only two people who seemed to want to join them in what they were going to do now.

One was the girl he had met on Stans cart a while back and the other was the man who had laid the formation earlier. "We would like to stick with you five for the rest of the day if you wouldn't mind." Freed smiled and said. "No problem. We might end up needing your skills again later anyway and I don't think we'll get lucky enough to find another person like you today."

Walking over to the elevators made for people they all loaded on and rode back down to the 21st tier. Once they got back down there Lake said. "I'll lead the way there." Freed knew where it was but Lake had actually been there already so he was the most suitable to lead the group there.
