"Go!"
Shale instantly opened the door and headed straight to the left while the other two mbers went in the opposite direction.
The demons who were standing in the hallway as if they were waiting for the incoming attackers from the outside were completely dumbfounded by the sneak attack. They didn't expect that the humans had entered the building without them knowing it.
And with their intelligence, they only used their instinct to react. They tried to attack Shale to buy so ti to react, but their opponent was simply too strong.
With a single wave of his hand, a violent gale ca forth. The wind enveloped the entire room and cut everything inside.
It instantly left a lot of sword marks on the floor, the ceiling, and the walls. When it reached the demons, the wind cut them into pieces without having the chance to fight back.
Shale just showed them why he was the captain of the Demon Extermination Squad as well as his reputation as one of the top fighters in the Demon Banner Army.
Noel seed to focus too much on Shale that he didn't realize that the other two mbers had also taken out the Low Level Demons.
"…" Noel sucked a cold breath. 'So, this is the Demon Extermination Squad. Their power is overwhelming and their speed is quick. But why does Shale use that excess Spiritual Energy to cut the wall? Or is it because his power is so violent that it ends up that way? Soone as powerful as Shale should have taken care of the problem with waste movent, so… it might be the latter.'
Noel took a deep breath to calm his excited heart down. He wanted to beco that powerful in the future. But for now, they had a mission to complete.
As soon as the demons died, Septa imdiately ca out of the room and went to the corner of the hallway. He used his own sense to calculate the distance of the hallway as well as the demons residing in it.
Septa pointed three fingers toward them. Each of them was heading towards a person. The first one was Shale since he focused on dealing with the demons. The second one was Clara, who had co out since the demon had been taken care of. The last one was Noel.
The two captains had understood how Septa worked, so they didn't hesitate to co to him. anwhile, Noel's reaction was a bit late. It took him half a second before he realized he was being called.
He hurriedly chased after the two to understand what was going on.
Septa looked at Noel and pointed at his back, as if telling Noel to rember the hallway for his note. After that, Septa said, "There are stairs going to the second floor. It seems to be blocked by a door, so I don't know if we can open it or not.
"I'm going to blind the opponents this ti and check the door, if possible, opening it. I want Shale to handle the demons. As for Clara, you'll help with the movent of the two groups. We're going to the second floor since there are fewer demons."
"Got it." The two nodded while Noel started looking around, rembering the shape of the hallway and the number of doors. Although he was curious about where the doors led him, he focused on drawing the map and putting so notes on each room.
Although it wasn't good enough to be called a map, he could take his ti when they got back to put everything on a single piece of paper.
Still, Septa's power was a bit shocking, even for Noel. It could even fool the demons, since the Spiritual Energy used was almost nonexistent.
Unless the demons had an extre sense or were near the wall, they wouldn't have realized the wall at all. This might be the reason why Septa could beco a Captain despite his age.
As soon as they reached an agreent, Septa imdiately erected another barrier and said, "Go."
Without hesitation, Shale ca out of the corner and headed straight to the demons standing in the hallway. He did the sa thing as earlier and killed the demons.
anwhile, Clara had gone back to the room and instructed the people on how they were going to move. Then, she opened the room next door and found the rest of the people waiting for her the whole ti. It seed that Septa's group had explained to them about their operation.
That was why they looked relieved when Clara opened the door. After all, the mission could still continue.
Last but not least, Septa had traversed to a green door not far from them. It seed there was another entrance near the door, but because it was covered by the trees, Septa and the others didn't find it or else, they would have used this entrance instead.
Septa tried to open the door. Sadly, it was locked.
"Tsk." Septa clicked his tongue and imdiately looked at the keyhole while furrowing his eyebrows. He used his Spiritual Energy to check the shape of the keyhole and the chanism before forming another barrier at the tip of his fingertip.
It turned out Septa's power was sothing related to Barrier. He could manipulate a barrier to fool the demons and even lock picking. It was a versatile power for soone with his line of job.
Septa tried to open the door for a few seconds while adjusting the barrier inside the keyhole. In just a few seconds, the door was unlocked.
He quietly opened it and entered. The door actually led to a small passage with only stairs inside.
Looking at the structure, the stairs seed to be leading to the top. So, Shale was called to form the sa barrier so that they could talk inside.
anwhile, Clara guided the people to enter the passage so that they could discuss their movent.
Noel entered the room along with the rest of the people. But he noticed the green sign on top of the door.
He couldn't understand the words as the language was different from what he knew.
'How do we read that sign? I'll morize it first and see if soone knows the aning.'
Noel didn't realize that he was actually writing two words, and it was sothing necessary for every big and tall building.
The two words he wrote were, 'Ergency Exit.'
