Chapter 1017 Breaking In
-----
Drake had managed to infiltrate Alma's team by using a small slime he slipped through the hoodies of one of the twins and has been spying on what they were doing all this time. It was certainly very useful to have the ability to turn his own flesh into slimes and separate them, each one with a small will of their own. Like this, he saw what they did, from infiltrating the facility to even investigating the entire interior, which resembled, according to his own thoughts, like the interior of a spaceship from the star wars movies.
The entire facility was filled with high technology, which quickly confirmed what the Frost Queen had told Drake about Oberon's Soul Fragments acquiring most of the inheritance from the Great Demon of Technology and using it to their advantage, creating these high-technology facilities to maintain prisoner Unique Skill users, which were the fuel and pillar of Oberon's research to acquire the power he desired.
After Hermes infiltrated the facility, Drake saw many things, from an area where clones were made, to the area where the unique skill users were held, they were over thirty of them, at the exact number of 32. Hermes and Alma, as former prisoners of such prisons, couldn't tolerate this any longer, and once they infiltrated inside, without further ado, they immediately acted.
First, Alma used her Mana Overload, a special spell she designed using her no-attribute magic to destroy the technology of these people, disabling the special collars that seemed to control the prisoner's mana, magic usage, and even disabling the power of their unique skills through mysterious means.
TRUUUUMMMM…!
And that wasn't the end of it yet.
"Wh-What was that just now?!"
"You! What did you do?!"
"Who the heck are you?!"
The elves surrounding Hermes panicked. Hermes, however smiled, quickly letting go of Alma and the twins, who emerged at his right and left side. Without thinking it twice, Alma quickly ordered the girls to act.
"Elena! Elma! Do it!" Alma said.
"Got it!" The twins said.
Drake knew these girls were special. Since he checked their status that he discovered they held unnatural powers yet they were not Unique Skill users, holding within them not only powerful magic but also powerful psychic powers.
Holding hands and then closing their eyes. As the guards ran towards them to attack them, a shockwave of psychic power surged from the twins, quickly attacking the guard's minds.
TRUUUMMMM…!
It was like a wave of electricity, hitting their brains and almost frying them! No armor or helmets could protect them anymore, as Alma had already learned the perfect spell capable of disabling them.
"Uuuagggh!"
"My head!!!"
"Gyyaaaaaeeghh…!"
"Uuggh…! UAGGH!"
Almost all the soldiers fell to their knees screaming in agony, some of them tried to resist but were still pushed down.
"Those two girls are certainly something…" Thought Drake, peeking at the scene through the small green slime in one of the elven twin's hoodies.
Most of the test subjects looked in surprise at the scene, feeling completely taken aback. Many of them had been living in here with no hopes of being rescued, thinking this world was cruel and inhumane. There was no heroes to come to their rescue, and the guards here were abusive and rough, always treating them badly.
However, as they saw a group of noble elves appear, most of the captives minds changed, once more believing in hope, and that there might be some goodhearted people in this world, even if they are not many, there were some!
"We are captives like you!" Hermes said, as he suddenly conjured his Spatial Magic.
His powerful Unique Skill [Runaway] granted him the Affinity with Space Attribute Magic even when his Mana Core was born with the Wind Attribute and had not acquired any other attribute. Combining both his Wind Magic to control the movement of his daggers while using space magic to allow them to bypass physical objects, dozens of daggers flew towards all directions, piercing the heads and throats of all nearby guards.
Hermes had struggled through his life a whole lot, but after having accumulated enough fighting experience and almost completely mastered his two types of elemental magics, he had become capable enough to most of the time easily one-shot these measly soldiers.
"Amazing…"
"He killed everyone?!"
"Ugh, so much blood…!"
"Did you listen to what he said?! He said he was a captive like us!"
"Someone that escaped?!"
"Yes, we escaped from our captivity and we have come here to rescue you. We have already rescued many like you, there's a safe shelter where we can bring you all." Said Alma. "We need to gather you all near us so we can teleport away, so please come here!"
Suddenly, the twins looked into the closed doors, as invisible waves of energy distorted the walls and suddenly broke them apart. The two twins began to bleed a bit from their nose, but they seemed fine, having practiced Telekinesis for a long time, they were able to bend and crush metal doors with ease.
"Come! Quickly! Before-"
Alma tried to bring everybody to her side so Hermes could teleport everyone and get out of here as fast as they could, but it was too late. She took a bit too long, as red lights began to shine all over the facility, as a mechanical voice resonated around, Drake felt surprised that such a good and effective plan was suddenly going downhill.
[INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT!]
[Dispatching Emergency Units…]
[Activating Magic Jamming Device…]
"Magic Jamming device?!" Asked Hermes, as he suddenly felt as if space attribute magic didn't answer his orders as good as before moving daggers across space felt sluggish and the distortions he created began to distort and disappear before they could do anything.
Even as he tried to teleport away with only those around him, it was futile, as the Spatial Layers themselves, which composed space itself did not answer his commands… He was unable to use his Unique Skill.
And even worse, the talking Knife suddenly fell stiff, he could not speak anymore nor even use his abilities, it was as if the entire surroundings were inhibiting him from doing a thing other than being a mere knife.
And to make things worse, hundreds of armed soldiers with new technology Alma had never seen before showed up!
