After five minutes, Rosabel came back down alone. She didn't know why Boss asked her to bring that person up, but she wouldn't ask any questions. Usually, Boss would fill them in on whatever he wanted them to know.
Alec looked at Rosabel and smiled faintly.
This time, it carried a different meaning compared to before.
Rosabel felt a thrill go up her spine, and her blood started boiling in anticipation of the upcoming fight. No doubt this would be a long, drawn out and messy affair. She didn't know if there were Meisters here, but she couldn't wait to test herself against them.
It had been a long time since she'd been in a situation like this, and the fact that it was Boss leading them made it even better.
Her Sin instincts were screaming out at her to go, go, go already, but she obediently waited for Boss' instructions.
Just looking at Boss' smile, she could already tell that Boss had a plan. The Sin faithfully waited for his orders, almost vibrating in place as she waited in anticipation.
Alec pointed out the routes on the map in front of him. "These are the routes that everyone can use to come down. Inform them to gather in their groups before moving out. Take out those you see, no exceptions."
Rosabel stared hard at the map, memorizing where the people were mostly concentrated, as well as the easy to access entrances. After she was sure that the got everything, she retracted her gaze.
"Yes, Boss!" Rosabel cheekily saluted, but she still very seriously went to carry out his orders.
Alec listened as Rosabel left and met up with his Spectres up above.
As he waited for them to converge and enter the headquarters, Alec checked out whether those 'higherups' were here or not.
They were marked clearly on the base map, which was… quite frankly, to him, a breach in security. The moment this security room was breached, weren't they all in danger?
He found that there were three Meisters in the base, which made him frown. If possible, he wanted to avoid direct confrontation with them. After all, the only Meister that he had under him was Dominique, who wasn't here at the moment.
The rest of his Spectres were mostly in the advanced rank, including himself. It wasn't that easy to breakthrough to become a Meister.
The most important thing that he had to take note of right now was that some of the people in the company headquarters probably had that serum that would allow them to directly breakthrough into the Meister ranks with the side-effect of consuming their own vitality.
Alec didn't know whether or not those people knew about the side-effects, but he supposed it didn't matter.
If they were brainwashed sufficiently by the company, it wouldn't matter to them at all. Brainwashing wasn't something that would disappear just like that even if the brand on them was gone.
It was something lifelong, something that lasted forever. It would always be there in the background.
There was a reason why Alec disdained it so much and felt so disgusted by it.
Alec already elevated the company to cult-like status. The brand was the perfect thing to cause that mentality.
He studied the various plans that had been stuffed in one of the drawers at the side of the security room, and his eyes narrowed, his lips pulling into a cold smile as he realized that this one method was very useful to them.
It appeared that the higherups rooms were very well-equipped. In order to be considered one of the 'higherups' you needed to achieve Meister status naturally, and the benefits awarded to that status was far above what one had by being a normal member.
But Alec wasn't interested in that at all.
Instead, what he was interested in was much more useful.
The rooms that the bigshots stayed in consisted of magic neutralizing material, so much so that neither those outside nor those inside could exert any magic on the room.
This was so that in the case of an explosion, the room would supposedly protect those so-called bigshots from even a Grand Meister.
Alec's lips curled into a smile.
Checking the monitors again, the Meisters were all in their rooms at this time.
Tilting his head, Alec noted that his Spectres were still coming down in batches, which meant that he had no time to lose.
The arrays from the restaurant directly extended to this place, but that wasn't the main bulk of the arrays.
Alec flashed out of the room, running towards that area that he could faintly sense the usage of runes. It was like it was calling to him almost, with the power of the array there.
The only thing that Alec could say was that the Array Master that had created the arrays were not here.
Otherwise, any intrusion would have been directly sensed and dealt with. It wouldn't have been so easy to take over those arrays up there.
There were a few people patrolling the place, but Alec didn't deal with them at all. Instead, he used his stealth to the fullest, misdirecting their attention and slipping past them without a single sound.
Before long, he finally found the place where the arrays had their core.
It was in the middle of the headquarters, and there were always a few people passing by at once.
It was the intersection in the middle that everyone used as a shortcut, and Alec silently raised a brow when he saw it.
How surprising.
Then again, perhaps not. after all, the most easily defensible place was the place that people always passed through. Even if someone wanted to take advantage of it, they would first have to dodge the eyes of all the people of the company here.
In this way, it was really quite strategic.
The more he saw, the more he felt like there was a discrepancy between the levels of the company. At times, it was ingenious, but at other times, it was really…
Alec looked around at the floating golden runes in the air, and he finally found the central rune piece.
The entire wall looked like a mosaic of colourful stones, which was treated as a decoration.
Perhaps, Alec was the only one who knew the true worth of the wall.
A few people walked past him, and Alec casually leaned on the wall as he deciphered the arrays that had been built into the place.
The core runestone was inserted in the middle of the wall. It was a yellow stone that looked just as colourful as the rest of the stones in the wall.
Alec clicked his tongue. He had to give it to that bastard. He really was not bad at his craft, but Alec just couldn't accept that he'd created the brand.
He really couldn't let it go.
If it weren't for this, Alec would even have wanted to exchange notes with the person who made this masterpiece here.
Alec smiled faintly.
He wondered how angry that person would be if they came back and realized that all their hard work had been wrecked by Alec in a single day? He wondered if they would cough blood from obtaining internal injuries.
Alec really wanted to see that person's face.
Touching the core runestone faintly, he plucked it out of the wall.
There was a faint noise as it disappeared from the wall, and a few people looked over curiously at the sound, but there was nothing there.
With a smile on his face, Alec easily overwrote the core commands of the stone and placed himself in the highest command order.
Now, this place belonged to him.
With a single thought, Alec sent a command.
Over on the other side of the bigshots, their rooms suddenly went on lockdown mode and activated the bunker system.
It shocked the Meisters who had been doing their own things.
Could it be that a Grand Meister was about to attack?!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
