She went to the pilot’s cabin and inford him before coming back and offering a beverage to Lucifer.
"I’m fine. I don’t need anything to drink. Just get sothing to eat," Lucifer said, refusing to tackle the cold drink.
"Right away." The woman left and soon brought sothing to eat.
In the anti, the pilot took the necessary permission to take the flight off the ground. The plane started moving.
The journey seed to be so short that Lucifer had just finished eating when the plane landed at the destination airport. The flight lasted for only an hour.
The current airport was a part of Magna City, which was the closest to the Uprising base. The helicopter flight, which would have taken days to get him to Uprising base, was reduced to hours because of the flight.
Leaving the plane, Lucifer stepped inside another helicopter that was already waiting for him nearby. It was the last part of the journey which took him straight to the desert where the Uprising base was hiding.
The helicopter floated in the middle of the desert as if waiting for sothing. Soon, an opening appeared in the ground, revealing the helipad underground. The helicopter landed on the helipad.
Sliding the door of the helicopter, Lucifer stepped aside to be greeted by two Warlocks.
"Greetings, captain. We were told that you would be coming," one of the Warlocks said. "I’m Joan, and he is Qia."
"How are you two feeling now?" Lucifer asked the two n.
He recognized the two n as they were a part of the n who fought the APF in Kensington. Since they were amongst the many that were injured like Tristan, they were sent to the Uprising base to get dical help.
They weren’t part of the team that besieged the Capital City.
"We’re perfectly fine now," Joan replied. "Let us escort you to the lab."
"I rember this place a bit from the first ti I ca here. It hasn’t changed even a bit in the last eight years. Do you all still use the fingerprint system to get access to lifts?" Lucifer asked, walking towards the lift.
As he stopped in front of them, he was able to see that the sensor was still there.
"Yeah. Since we’ll be getting a new base in the capital and you weren’t expected to co here, there was no need to change this system," Joan let out, placing his thumb on the lift. The lift opened.
The three of them stepped inside the lift, and Joan pressed a button. The doors closed, and the lift started going down.
Stepping out of the lift, Lucifer walked to the lab. He had already been to this place when he was brought here to get his battle gear, so it wasn’t hard to locate the lab.
The lab, which covered more than half of this floor, had only one entrance which was a white door at the end of the corridor.
Pushing the door open, he stepped inside with Joan and Qia.
The leading scientist noticed Lucifer. He couldn’t help but smile wryly. "You’re actually here. Didn’t I tell you that you didn’t need to co personally? I would have sent that thing to you myself."
"There was no need for it. I needed to co here for another reason. I thought I’d pick that up while I was already here. No need for you to make an effort to send that to . So where is it?" Lucifer asked, stepping closer to the scientist.
The white-haired scientist looked towards a dark-haired man in the back. "Bring that to ."
As the dark-haired man went to get sothing, the white-haired scientist accompanied Lucifer. "May I ask why you said that you needed to co here?"
"I wanted to et the person that can never co out of this place," Lucifer replied.
"You an you’re here to take Predictor? He’ll never co with you."
"I have a feeling that he won’t. And I won’t force him. I’m not here to take him. I’m here to simply talk to him personally," Lucifer replied.
The black-haired man returned with a small box, placing that on a glass table.
The white-haired man opened the small box to reveal the item inside. "Here it is, our last pair of gloves. Make sure they aren’t destroyed again, alright? It’s pretty hard to find those things. After eight years, we only managed to find two of these."
Lucifer took off the glove from his left hand, which looked old and worn out. Since his left hand and the glove on it had turned to stone, he lost the glove. Since then, he had been using his old worn-out glove that he used for the last eight years.
Soon after returning from the Dungeon, he had asked Kellian if there were more gloves.
He was told that there was another pair back at the Uprising base. Since he was coming to et Predictor anyway, he decided to collect the gloves here.
He wore the new left-hand gloves and kept the other glove in his pocket.
"How’s the work for Cassius’ battle gear coming along? It’s been a long ti; I think you should’ve been done by now, right?" Lucifer asked, rembering another thing.
"That’s also finished. We already sent that though. I’m sure the battle gear will reach your friend by tomorrow. Not only him, but we also prepared sothing for the man nad Uzuki too," The scientist inford.
"Good." Lucifer turned to leave.
"Ah, wait! There’s one more thing!" The scientist called out to Lucifer.
"What?" Turning around, Lucifer asked.
"We prepared sothing for you as well. Well, not one thing but more than one. Since we had so ti to work on stuff, we managed to create so ti, especially for you. I’m sure you’ll love it."
"What did you create?"
"Please follow to see," the scientist smirked, walking towards a tallic door.
He pressed a button. The door opened on its own.
Lucifer stepped inside the chamber with the scientist, stopping at a pure white room.
Not only the walls but even the ceiling and the floor were white.
"There’s nothing here," Lucifer pointed out the obvious, unable to find anything.
"Correction, there’s nothing here yet," the scientist responded, smiling. He walked over to the wall and drew sothing using his finger.
As he finished, sothing started happening in the room.
The wall where he had drawn started going down, revealing the other part of the room, which wasn’t as empty.
"Now that we have so many resources, making these things seed like the most logical choice. And these will help you a lot in your journey to the Divine Empire," the scientist said.
