Zeras crawled through the pitch darkness, the horrible stench and dirty water of the sewers afflicting his nose but he continued nonetheless. He had been through much worse. Judging by how far he had been crawling, Zeras could tell right now, that he should already be under the Museum Hall. Now all he needed was so type of opening to enable him to pass outside.
And he didn’t wait for long, and Zeras soon found one and his ears leaned to the tallic plate trying to pick up any sign of sound. He could imdiately hear the sound of footsteps imdiately on placing his ears and judging by how it was moving, he could tell it was a total of two guards moving but slowly the guards went far away and imdiately, Zera’s hands pushed open the tallic covering and he imdiately exited the hole.
Looking around where he was, it was just a small balcony-like opening that was at the end of a long passageway, and the entire passageway was pretty clear, save for the back of the two guards that were slowly disappearing into the distance.
The sll was very bad on him and one could easily sniff him out from the sll. Imdiately Zera’s hands pressed tightly one of the buttons on his robe.
Instantly, the Nanite which the robe was made beca very visible as they all suddenly rippled. Instantly his robe was completely cleaned of dirt and filth and the pocket swelled up. Dipping his hands into it, he could already see the large nylon bag that contained the filth on the robe initially.
“It would have been a headache if it had spilled everything on the floor. Thanks a lot, Syndyl…” Zeras mused and imdiately the voice rang in his ears.
“You’re now inside the base, and at the first floor, Right boss?” Olyn’s tiny voice rang out.
“Yes, Olyn. So, I have to make it to the fourth floor to retrieve the footage, right?”
“Yes, boos. And there are only two ways to do that…”
“The stairs and the elevators…”
“Yes, boss. This one will be simple…”
“It won’t be simple. The stairs will no doubt be filled with guards at regular intervals and even though I can sink into their shadows, they would still be able to notice if I get too close. The second path is the elevator but there will no doubt be also guards at every entry and exit…” Zeras mused as continued inching his way forward and formulating a plan in his mind.
“I’ll have to find a way through…” Zeras mused before imdiately directing his attention to Olyn.
“Hey, Olyn…”
“Yes, boss…”
“Can you try tracking down the power of the elevators from the first to the fourth floor…”
“Yes… Done. It’s at the lefthand corner, just five rooms after…” Olyn replied as Zeras imdiately moved forward.
The guards lined at every entry and exit just as he redirected and the stairs actually had two standing guards at every ten steps!
“I can’t think of a monster that can get through that security…” Zeras said to himself as he kept following the shadow of a patrolling guard and avoided the eyes of the other guards and soon, he arrived at the large tallic door of the elevator operation room.
The door was incredibly thick and no doubt also locked. That Zeras could say from the absence of guards watching it but it still had a small opening below it and Zeras slipped into the shadow of an object present within the door that showed outside and instantly he found himself before the hundreds of wires and switches.
“Just how many damn elevators do they even have…” Zeras thought to himself but he was still able to easily navigate through the intricacies and instantly he opened up his watch application, grabbed a cord wire within the place and instantly plugged it into his watch with another large machine in the room.
Less than 10 seconds later…
The done tab appeared on the watch as Zeras imdiately began copying the strange letters and symbols…
“Hey, Olyn…”
“Yes, boss…”
“I’ll be sending you the code of the elevators, Piece it together and build a controlling app for them…” Zeras ordered and instantly, he sent the files through his watch to Olyn.
“Received boss. This will take two minutes…”
“Take your ti Olyn…” Zeras replied as he sat on one of the chairs exhausted.
Using the shadow sinking ability of the robe wasn’t an automatic feature but an energy-based feature. The more he uses it, the more energy it sucks away from him. Although for an awakener the energy wasn’t even worth considering. To Zeras, the energy was too exhausting…
4 minutes later…
“All done boss…” The words rang out as his watch screen brightened up and he could instantly see the new application.
Every elevator had its open and close buttons and using that, Zeras could easily control to open the elevator as he liked without getting physically in touch…
“HUUUU…” Zeras exhaled loudly and imdiately he began clicking the buttons erratically before imdiately bursting outside…room in his shadow form…
——
The guards who were responsible for the elevators were all suddenly alerted when they felt the elevator suddenly opening up. Before it could even open completely, the sound of ability crashing against the wall echoed out from every floor as they all imdiately threw out all their abilities at the elevators.
If Zeras had been there, then he would have no doubt been reduced to ashes by the destructive attack! But their expression beca confused as they looked at the elevator which had nobody within…
“That’s strange. I just got a report from the other floors. It is said all the elevators are malfunctioning from the 1st floor to the 4th, it will take so ti to get it together…” One of the guards said out loud as his companions snorted as they both looked at the elevator which was opening and closing like a toy…
“It must have been those lazy-ass engineers. Well, it wouldn’t hurt to take a rest until they had their shit done…” He mused as they both walked away from the elevator. As they left, never would they have noticed the shadow that stuck out like a sore thumb in dim lighting and entered the elevator as it opened up.
DIIIIIING
Instantly, the elevator moved up and passed through every floor before coming to a stop at the fourth
