Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 436: 149. Is this an angel?!

In a corner of the 21st underground layer of Sector 6.

Noland crouched in a cluttered room filled with broken crates, the floor covered in broken wooden boards, wood shavings, and bent nails.

This was an abandoned underground warehouse, occupying an area of about 300 square meters.

There were hundreds of warehouses like this one in the 20th underground layer. Along with similar workshops, steam boiler rooms, and liquid cooling rooms occupying 300 or even 500 square meters, there were at least two hundred of them in the 20th underground layer.

He found this out after finding a map.

The map, left on a mucus-covered carpet, was about 4 cm thick when folded palm-sized.

When it was spread out on the floor, the densely packed corridors and room layouts appeared before him. There were also numerous hand-written numbers and notes beside the layouts.

According to the information on the map, its original master was an alchemist from the Re-forged Association.

Whether the alchemist was dead or alive, Noland didn’t want to investigate. He only knew one thing:

This 21st underground layer was too big.

Simply too big.

The total area occupied was at least five times that of the 20th underground layer. Even by merely looking at the map, one could feel the complexity of the labyrinthine structure.

And this was just the 21st underground layer of Sector 6. The adjacent Sectors 5 and 7 also had 21st underground layers of the same scale.

It was unimaginable how vast the entire Union City’s 21st underground layer was.

Thinking about it now, the surface area of the underground layers 20 and above only occupied about a fifth of each sector’s surface area. Starting from this 21st underground layer, each underground passage made full use of the area in each sector.

After using the Deconstruction technique to store the map in his mind, Noland didn’t hurry off.

Because he had discovered traces of combat alchemists and wizards.

Five Re-forged alchemists of the third to fifth orders, six canine society alchemists of the same strength levels, three Razor Gang combat alchemists, and a Night Spirit wizard – Fugidia.

These individuals had come from neighboring sectors, forcibly blew up the inter-sector passage gates, and entered the 21st underground layer of Sector 6 from Sector 5 next door.

The sudden gathering of extraordinary individuals from four different factions made the vast layer feel crowded.

The five Re-forged alchemists had ten alchemical constructs and were equipped with alchemy goggles for perceiving life signs and seeing through walls. Their detection range was extremely wide and their firepower fierce, employing alchemy bullets capable of creating vacuum cavities to clean up the aberrations in the layer.

All six canine society alchemists were magic beast hunters. Each of them had two alchemical attack dogs, armed to the teeth and half a person tall. The canine society’s magic beast hunters could also transform into “Wolfpack Guards”, summoning a large number of cannon fodder dogs using alchemical fur. Their killing power was comparable to that of the Re-forged alchemists, as they used the self-explosions of cannon fodder dogs to clear aberrations over a wide area.

Three combat alchemists from the Razor Gang were fortunate enough to avoid being locked up in the Alchemy Cathedral’s prison cells.

Upon arriving, they summoned streamlined metal armor and used the mantis blades on their arms to reap the lives of the aberrations. Firing a sharp blade from their elbow joints in between swings, they precisely blew up the heads of distant aberrations.

Fugidia of the Night Spirit Cult was more low-key.

Arriving later than the others, she noticed the movements in the corridor as soon as she stepped into the 21st underground layer of Sector 6.

At this moment, this Night Spirit magician, capable of transforming into a swarm of bats, took advantage of the bats’ ability to disperse into individual units and passed through the metal fence on the edge of the cliff.

She entered the vertical downward cliff passage, flying straight down towards the deeper layers below.

When Noland noticed Fugidia’s flight, he couldn’t help but feel envious.

“Bat Wing Spell” and “Death Flight” could pass through metal fences, but his learned Flight Spell, “Bone Spirit Flight Technique,” couldn’t.

How regrettable.

The commotion of Fugidia passing through the metal fence alarmed the alchemists in the 21st underground layer.

Three groups of alchemists from different factions performed the same operation in unison.

They maintained a tacit distance from each other and used their alchemical cutting tools on the metal fence. Amidst a grating noise, the sturdy metal bars were forcibly sawed off. The metal fence now had three gaps large enough for a person to pass through.

Without saying a word, the three groups of alchemists jumped out, spread their alchemy flying wings in mid-air, and flew towards the lower layers. When their figures disappeared from the 21st underground layer, the sound of cutting metal bars echoed again from the layers below.

They were forcibly entering another layer.

What was attracting these three groups of alchemists and one Night Spirit magician?

Noland crouched in the abandoned warehouse on the 21st underground layer, using “Life and Death Tracking” to observe the situation below through his magic vision.

At the vertical limit of his vision, the 26th underground layer, the alchemists and Night Spirit wizard were engaged in a fierce battle.

The four factions were fighting fiercely, with constant gunfire. Every now and then, alchemical bombs, energy rays, or blood magic light sources would erupt against the cliffside, sending echoes throughout the different layers.

Seeing that their target was not the alchemy water well on the 28th underground layer, Noland let them be.

After their fight was over, it wouldn’t be too late for him to enter the 26th underground layer through the gap in the metal fence.
