Infinite Gacha - Chapter 323

--At the time when the lights are fighting against Gira, the master of the demon kingdom.

Mei and her friends head for the laboratory of Doc, one of the Majin Nation masters.

Doc's laboratory is located deep in the royal hunting ground forest on the outskirts of the Majin Nation capital.

Of course, this information comes from Miki, who has defected.

As she had informed us, there was a cave in the depths of the forest, and a door leading underground was disguised as a door.

undefinedThe door to the basement was disguised. "Other people are protected by magic, but my partner can disguise it without much effort.

............"

While listening to Rock's rattling soliloquy, Tin, the gunner, discovers physical and magical traps one after another and neutralizes them without being noticed by the opponent.

This is also a feat that can only be done by "UR, double gunner Suzu level 7777," who has a high ability to search for enemies.

The enemy is a good idea. If you create a laboratory in the royal hunting grounds, civilians and adventurers will not come by without permission, and if they do, there will be no problem killing them as suspicious. The forest is ready to be guarded, and the demon kingdom is ready.

Noticing that his partner, Suzu, has finished her work, Rock calls out to her.

When he called out to the rear, he found Mei, Nazuna, and Ice Heat, who had hidden themselves with "SSR Existence Concealment," including Suzu, standing by.

Mei gave a small nod and confirmed to everyone once again.

Then, I will confirm the details of the operation once again. Our objective is to secure Doc, one of the "Masuta" of the Majin Nation. The objective is to secure him. Killing is prohibited."

By capturing Doc, who serves as a liaison, the objective is to secure all the Majin Nation masters and extract information from them.

Above all - and May continues.

We need to capture Gou, the leader of the Majin Nation "Master" who may be in the 9,000th level who destroyed Master Light's hometown, without letting him get away. Failure is not an option for this mission. Everyone, please be firmly aware of that point."

Of course!　For the sake of my master, I'm going to get that Doc guy for sure!"

Ice Heat will not be able to face its master unless it can clear its name with the success of this operation!

(NICK!)"

Since the power of the infinite mess card prevents any sound from leaking out to the surroundings, everyone raises their voices as they please.

Led by Mei, Nazuna, Ice Heat, and Suzu were all in high spirits.

Locke, on the other hand, tutted unintentionally in his chest.

(I don't know... ...... if you're so fired up, it's going to be a terrible thing... ......)

Intelligence Weapon, but Locke had the compassion to not just say it out loud.

Confirming everyone's motivation, May nodded her head in satisfaction and remembered to check and nail each person's movements.

Tin," she said, "go ahead and disarm the traps, just as you did with the neutralization of the cave area. I will prepare the magic string so that we can restrain Doc (the target) at any time. If I fail to secure him, please prevent him from escaping by freezing him with Ice Heat's freezing system. Do not touch Nazna until the battle has started. Also, remember and be aware that in some cases, they may give up on securing you and retreat. Remember what Mr. Wright said about prioritizing our safety over securing Doc (the subject)."

When she finished listening to everyone's replies, May nodded her head in satisfaction and immediately began her actions.

--The interior of the cave is not very deep.

When one arrives at the far end, there is a door disguised as a cave wall, which opens to reveal a staircase leading to the basement.

For now, with the power of "SSR Existence Concealment," May and the others should not be able to catch them visually or magically.

With Tin leading the way and keeping a watchful eye, it was unlikely that the other side would be aware of their intrusion.

This is a very good thing, but of course there was the ...... problem.

The first thing to do is to make sure that the other side is aware of your presence, and that they are not preparing to intercept you.

You can find the answer at: "...... No, it is not. The place is underground, and the smell is just trapped.

Nazna, walking at the end of the line, picks her nose and speaks up.

May responded to her question, frowning at the smell.

The smell of blood, putrefaction, and chemicals mingled with each step down the basement stairs, creating a foul stench.

It is hard to imagine that ...... is aware of May and her team's intrusion and is preparing a stench weapon to repel them.

If that were the case, they would have prepared something different to intercept us.

After descending the stairs, Tin leads the way toward the presence.

Mei and the others followed, making sure not to step on anything other than where Tin had stepped.

The underground entrance was narrow, but the underground laboratory itself was as spacious as an aristocratic mansion.

There was a dining room, a hall, a guest room, and other rooms used for ordinary purposes.

Going further into the laboratory, we found that monsters had been pushed into cages that had been stacked or lined up like containers.

Why are monsters being held captive in such a place?

All we understood was that it was not a pleasant object by any stretch of the imagination.

We proceeded further.

In another section, there was what looked like a cell.

Inside, people of all races, young and old, were being held captive, and they had nothing animate in common.

It seems that they are deprived of the will to act out by something magical, rather than ...... because they are in despair of this situation.

It would be a troublesome measure if they were to kill themselves while you are not looking at them.

May and his team also searched for Doc, carefully probing multiple locations and frowning .......

He was a very bad ...... man," she said. It's a good thing I didn't bring Mr. Wright with me."

Tin and Ice Heat nodded deeply at May's words, and Nazna frowned, looking heartbroken.

I entered the laboratory and saw 'no sign of Doc at all. ......

The treatment of the race was just too much.

There were dismembered bodies, those with monster-like entrails sewn into them, those who had been melted down and mixed together by chemicals, and many others who were of a race in a state that I am afraid to even describe.

This is not so bad.

In addition, Mei and her team found a huge, deep hole to dump the bodies, where a large number of undead people were screaming out their vindictiveness, suffering, and sadness.

Voices that continue to suffer even in death.

I would like to release them from suffering for the sake of Wright and his kind, but I can't. ......

We can't let them know about our intrusion by purifying them badly. Above all, it is impossible for us to purify this many people with our magical power.

Rather, even Ellie-sama can't do it, can she?"

Everyone silently agrees with Ice Heat's point.

Although Ellie boasts the highest amount of magic power in "The Abyss," it is impossible for her to purify thousands--or even tens of thousands--of undead in a physical way.

Unless, of course, they are prepared to replenish their magical power from the outside for an extended period of time, or if they are burned and cremated.

The most important thing to remember is that the undead are not just a bunch of people who have been killed and left to die, they are a bunch of people who have been killed and left to die. What is really called "poison" is a race.

............"

Tin squeezes his partner tightly at Rock's blur.

It's not that I agreed with what he said.

Tin himself is confident that he would not fall behind Doc if they were to engage in battle. ......

The first time I saw him, I got a chill from the madness that was right in front of me.

'Let's continue our search for ...... Doc (subject). If he has noticed us and is running away, we will investigate possible clues, escape routes, traces, etc., and pursue him."

Everyone agrees with May, and once again Tin begins his search.

--In the end, the discovery of Doc (the subject) is unsuccessful.

Nevertheless, everyone's expressions are not particularly gloomy.

Because from the situation at the institute, it was thought that they were out on an errand rather than 'having noticed us and fled.

The reason is that the situation in the laboratory suggests that they were out on business, rather than having noticed them and fled in a panic. What do you want to do, Ms. Mei?

Yes, sir. ......

Ice Heat's question makes May put her finger to her shapely chin and think.

We can either wait until Doc comes back and surprise and capture him, or we can retreat and attack again. ......

Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

While May is pondering which to choose and whether to come up with another plan, Nazna looks around at her leisure.

Currently, May and the others were in what appeared to be Doc's study.

Except for the entrance and exit, the area was surrounded by bookshelves, and the shelves were filled with books, documents, and stacks of papers summarizing his research.

On the desk, too, there were piles of books and data on his research.

This study was the place where the stench of the institute was the thinnest, so everyone was gathered here.

As one would expect, they would not pull books from the bookshelves just because they were bored.

If they were not careful, the magic trap might be triggered, or they might physically lose their balance.

Again, even if you stuff them in, if the other party notices the discomfort and realizes the intrusion, you can't even look at them - but Nazna shows interest in a bundle of papers plucked from a corner of the desk.

He says, "......?　This is ......."

Without time for Tin & Lock to stop him, he approaches the desk and pulls out a stack of paper stuck between a stack of books.

May notices her and presses her temples, her head aching from her actions.

She shows me the paper in her hand before May can open her mouth to scold Nazuna for acting selfishly in her position of being entrusted with the command.

She showed him a piece of paper in her hand before he could open his mouth, "Hey, hey, Mei, what's the name written here?"

Not only May, but also Ice Heat, Tin, and Rock all nearly uttered a croak when they read the name.
