The Only Aura User In Magic World Chapter 460: Big City Under A Roof

Chapter 460: Big City Under A Roof

When we got closer to the building we assume where the lab is, I am looking through it with my Divine Vision to see how big it really is. And the size was so big that it couldn't even be said as a building anymore.
"…Rather than a building, it's more like a city under a roof. There must be other facilities than just the laboratory. For now, we will look around this place first. Once it's clear, I will use portal to get Candy and Wendy to investigate this place," I said to my two familiars. Three including Victoria.
Like I just said to them, this place is more like a city under a roof. It has lodging, a farm, a ranch, and other things so this place can be maintained without ever going out.
But maybe because the people inside have gone, or they are focusing to protect the other side of the gate to the direction of where I hid the compass is, there is no one here except for just one guard at the entrance. Even inside this place, there are no other people.
But the guard might not an average mage. The guard couldn't detect my position from where he is. That mean he's not master level mage. I can tell from seeing his normal heartbeat rate that he's not acting.
But he might still be an expert level mage. Still, for us who have fought a lot of them and probably someone stronger than an average expert level mage, it won't be a problem for us.
Soon after, Graham and his shadow showed up. Now, what to do?
Well, this is a raid. Not a secret espionage mission. I don't need to hide from the enemy, but the less they know, the better it is for us.
But since no one is here, I can just kill that guard. It will also deplete the enemy's strength even if it's just one person.
"Graham, use your shadow to kill the guard. I doubt he will get reinforcement," I ordered Graham.
Graham nodded, and his shadow clone approached the guard.
When it has reached within twenty meters of the guard, even when it's in the man's blind spot, he realizes quickly and attacked using an Ice Spike. I guess he's an expert level mage.
But the giant shadow clone is stronger than an average expert level mage. Graham's clone is as strong as Graham without his magic. And his spear technique is great as well.
The shadow clone easily dodged the Ice Spike, and flies toward the man. The man notices that the monster is stronger than he thought, so he aimed his hand to the sky.
Is he going to call for reinforcement by giving a signal using his magic? But he's too slow.
The giant shadow clone is faster than that and easily cut the man's hand with its spear. Even when the man is screaming in pain, there are no one to ask for help nearby. His shout can't be heard by his friends that is not here.
The man dies soon after the shadow clone repeatedly stabbed his body with his giant spear. That was easy and fast.
"Now is how to enter the gate. There's something in the gate that I don't know. Something like a magic item. Maybe it will send some sort of signal once someone opened it without permission? We need to be careful. Victoria, there's a gap under the gate. You should be able to send a Blobby inside through there. Once the Blobby is inside, we will enter with portal. And then I will open a new portal to get Candy and Wendy here," I said.
"Roger that," Victoria said.
"Who is Roger?" Graham asked.
"You just need to shut up and do what I say. No questions from you. Only reports," I ordered Graham to shut his mouth.
Still, who is this Roger?
Anyway, Victoria sends a Blobby inside through the small gap under the gate. And I used portal to enter it.
"It's huge. It's really a city under one roof. Where should we search information?" Victoria asked after entering the portal.
"Let's ask Candy and Wendy. They are better for this job," I said.
I opened a portal to call the two special agents and they are already prepared and have worn their masks to cover their identities even before I called them.
"Is this the lab?" Candy asked.
"More like the city where the lab is. I hid the compass outside, so we don't know the direction where the compass is pointing anymore. For now, let's split up. Wendy will go with Graham, and Candy will go with Shelia. Victoria, me, and Graham's shadow will check on the other gate first. If there are more guards at that side, it means they know the location of the compass," I said.
"Alright. Wendy, you and Graham will check the surrounding from above. Shelia and I will enter each door one by one. Roy, contact us through Sonia if you see anything suspicious."
Since this is where Candy can show her best ability, she will be in charge here. I don't have any problem with that. Though I can't tell what's suspicious and what isn't.
"Roy, is it safe?" Wendy asked if she can fly without being seen.
"There are no one within my sight. It should be fine around this area. But beyond this, there are probably a lot of people. Be careful," I said before leaving to my destination.
With that, Candy and Shelia enter the first door they see. It's some sort of lodging for the guard probably. Wendy and Graham fly above them. Wendy is being carried by Graham. Graham is holding her hand as her body is dangling. So, Graham is unable to see girls in revealing outfits, but still fine holding girl's hand directly? I guess just holding hand is not that exciting for him, huh.
As for me, I'm being carried by the giant shadow clone to the other side of the gate. Where I should be entering from if I go straight without changing direction.
This place is really big as I couldn't see the other side for ten minutes. That's almost the size of the Capital. I guess this place is not somewhere anyone would investigate. And they must have a lot of time to build this place since none of the building was built normally without the help of earth mage. At least that's what I see.
Still, it's weird that I didn't see anyone. Though there were some building that goes deep under the ground. They must be the lab. Or at least one of them is. There were some people there under the ground, but for now, I need to take care of those guards on the surface first.
I was right that there are more guards in this side. Which mean they can tell where the compass is. And one of them is holding similar looking compass which pointed at where they are watching. Since that tool is a pair, I don't need to worry about anything else after grabbing that one, right? And I can grab the previous compass. I can use them later.
"What to do now, Roy?" Victoria asked.
"They don't even bother closing the gate on that side. We can just fight them right away. And since none of them reacted, there are no master level mages or even artificial one on that side," I said.
"How many of them are there?" Victoria asked.
"About fifty of them."
"If they are all expert level mages, you think you can win?" Victoria asked.
"As long as I can get in the middle of them, I can have them attack me with magic. Their magic will hit other people as well. Whether they care about other people or willing to kill their own friends, it should be easy," I said.
"Do they have explosion devices in their mouth?"
"Hmm… most of them do," I said after seeing the inside of those guards' mouth.
"What if they decided to kill themselves with the explosion once you are in the middle? You can't dodge them or cut them, right?" Victoria said.
"…You're right. I need to think carefully on what to do. I guess using the gas that will make them kill each other is better. No, let's get them angry first by using infuriating gas," I said.
Without them noticing, I had Victoria made a lot of clones which I will insert the gas in.
I will use the infuriating gas to start making them angry at each other. And after they started using magic to fight, I will use the killing gas. This way, it will be more effective since they will only think about killing each other.
During that chaos, Graham's shadow clone and I will start killing them. Once their anger and killing intent are aimed at me, I doubt they will be sane enough to use the explosive devices to kill themselves and me in the process.
…Though killing themselves means that they are no longer sane. Well, whether they kill themselves or not, they are not sane since they decided to join the cult.. And I have no problem killing them all.
