Chapter 242: Running Around

Waking up and getting dressed, Lake was pretty sure he spent the same amount of time getting his armor on as he had sleeping. Maybe in the future he could look into getting some armor that was made of leather. At this point the metal he was wearing was weaker than his skin so maybe there was armor made from skin like his.

He would settle for anything that could stop an attack from an actual threat though even if it was the most uncomfortable thing he had ever worn. Stepping out of his room, Lake went to look for Wezz to see if they had somehow finished his list already. "I thought you were going to sleep."

"I gave up." Wezz shrugged and said. "The list isn't finished yet so you can try some more if you want." Lake shook his head and said. "No point, plus I already put my armor back on." When he saw he was disturbing the list making process he said. "I'll go and start. I'll get the list later."

Stepping out into the street, Lake tried to remember where he had seen the most bodies in one place yesterday. Looking on the ground around the base he guessed this was it but they had already striped the bodies of anything useful. That left the street he had started his search on the first time he had brought potions.

It was near the elevator shaft so he passed it every time he came here and had seen the piles there. It was also far away from where he thought the Demon Worshipers were hiding so there wasn't much chance they had been carrying any of the ones there away. This meant those bodies weren't being messed with by either side so they had the best chance of having their gear around still.

He wouldn't know if the gear was any good until he got there though. Thinking back he didn't really see many people with weapons dead there and he thought maybe they were killed trying to escape and that was why they were near the elevator. Their armor might be misleading because here people wore it as clothes just as much as warriors wore it.

It was now set to weapons over level 30 that were in usable condition. He was pretty sure usable was the best term to use to specify condition because if he asked for good condition it might exclude something beat up that someone could still use. After a while he had enough to head back again. Going in to drop off the weapons he didn't talk and just went right back out after he delivered what he had.

If he stopped and talked every time it would probably waste an hour over all the trips he was going to make. He still needed to finish his tunnel today and who knew what that would lead to. He didn't have the time to take it easy and chat if he was serious about getting out before the day passed.

...

Looking down the road Tiff didn't even need to ask why they had stopped; she could feel it in the air even with her lack of talent in magic. It helped that Holy and Unholy were opposite but she was sure anyone would get a chill if they happened along the road right now. "Well I don't know what's happening right now but get ready to run as soon as the fight starts. Our guy will be with you."

As the Temple Head finished talking all three of them snapped their heads up. A new source of Unholy mana had started to rain down on them and when they saw the clay colored cloud spinning above them they knew what was causing it. "Looks like they did know after all." Tiff had heard of what was about to happen many times but had never seen it herself.

The fact they were about to send a Demigod after them meant the Demon Lord knew she was about to be a new threat he would have to worry about. It made sense to kill her now she guessed but it wouldn't stop the God of Light from choosing another person for the job. This would be more like stepping on the God of Lights toes compared to if they killed her after she got the job.

"Ok once the cloud opens there's no way to know what's going to come out of it so change of plans we'll all run now." Following the Temple Head as she started to run Tiff heard her say. "Get in front of me." Tiff was already moving as fast as she could without skills so she had to use one to get in front of the Temple Head like she had asked.

Tiff heard a boom and was about to turn to look when her training took over. They had run drills like these in the past and it was a bad idea to stop in front of or try to look at an opponent that you couldn't handle when you had been told to run. Reaching out to grab Dawn's wrist, Tiff pulled her to make sure she didn't get caught up in the moment and forget what they needed to do to stay alive.The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
