Chapter 265: Looking For The Spot Pt.1

Once he passed the gate Lake made it to where Wezz had said they would be hiding when he came looking for them and using Detector started to look for them. Lake saw the group near the bottom of the mountain without even using Detector and went towards them.

When he landed the guards that were protecting the sleeping people looked like they were about to attack but they noticed it was him before they did and put their weapons away. "Is Wezz asleep?" Everyone was just asleep on the ground so Lake could find Wezz pretty easily but he just asked one of the guards since he didn't want to disturb everyone sleeping by walking around looking for him.

Seeing the guy that the guard pointed at looked like Wezz Lake thanked them and walked over. Seeing Wezz was completely asleep, Lake just left him alone. He really didn't need to tell Wezz anything directly so he just told one of the guards to tell Wezz people from the Holy Domain would be here in three days to help.

After he told the guard this he told them to be safe until he came back and left heading towards the barrier that was covering the city. Lake needed to start gathering information about the barrier so he could help the people take it down once they got here. He knew for a fact that they would be sending people that specialize in barriers here since he was in the meeting and he was hoping to be able to speed up this process by having everything ready when they got here.

This was the reason why he had spent the few hours of free time he had in the guild reading a book about barriers. It had been one of his top priorities for a while so he was unhappy to know the subject was a lot more complicated than he had ever feared. Thankfully there seemed to be a common weakness that every type of barrier made by formation shared and with Detector he would be able to find it much faster than normal.

Setting Detector to look for the barriers weakness, Lake started to fly around the Barrier looking out for the small spot that would be the key to taking down the formation without suffering the backlash. After a while of not seeing it Lake started to worry that it might be somewhere underground. Continue reading on No_veLbIn

At least half of this barrier was underground so it was completely possible and if the person who had made it was a real expert and knew what they were doing he was sure they would have made the weak spot somewhere that was hard to find. This was why it was a good thing he had come a few days before the experts had.

Once there was enough space to stand Lake did and cast fly. Once he was in the air all he had to do was dig like he had in the first tunnel with all the rubble falling down the shaft and into the water pipe. This made his job a lot easier and he was able to get really close to the dot in less than an hour.

As he continued his way towards it one of his sword swings let light into his tunnel and afraid he had cut into some secret base that had been placed here to protect the weak spot he got ready to run. He did not want to fight while still trapped in a small tunnel so he felt this was the best option for him if any attacks did come for him.

After a few seconds Lake remembered he could tell when people had their attention on him but didn't drop his guard and went ahead and used Detector to look for Demon Worshipers. When he saw none start to glow he guessed the light was caused by something else so he turned on Mana Vision and looked in front of him. Finding that there were indeed people in whatever he had just cut into Lake wondered how he should tell them he was there without causing a fight since none of them had noticed the hole he had made yet.

Deciding he should just go with a hello, Lake first used Detector to make sure none of them could kill him. Seeing someone start to glow golden when he set it to look for people who could kill him, Lake sighed and called out. "Hello, is there anyone nearby?"

With Mana Vision Lake was instantly able to tell that they had all moved towards him when he said this and waited for them to call out something back to him. "Look there's a crack in the wall. Hello." Lake was happy that no one tried to fight him and said. "Can I come in?"

"Who are you?" Lake wasn't really sure what he should say to this so he just started with his credentials. "I'm from the fighters guild."

"What are you doing here?" Lake was sure it was exactly the same reason they were here so he said. "I'm looking for the barriers weakness."

"Alright we're going to take the wall down." Lake let them do this even though he would have done it much faster. Once there was a hole he could see through, the digging stopped and one of the people put their face up to the hole to get a look at him. "Pass us your guild badge." hearing this, Lake got a little nervous since it had been destroyed and he didn't have a new one yet.

"I don't have it. It was destroyed a few days ago but I have my Alchemist guild scroll but don't tell anyone you saw this because the alchemist guild is neutral." This plea was a mess and Lake really didn't expect it to work at all. "Give us a minute." The face disappeared and Lake quietly waited to see what they would decide.
