"Look, it's weapons, a stockpile of weapons, only one place would have a warehouse like that." The wisp spoke.
"A military base!" The two said in unison.
Weapons were neatly lined up inside the cabinets, the simplest types of weapons, all the same, swords, spears, shields, bows, hammers and many others could be seen lined up there.
"Perhaps we can find out more if we go inside", he showed the drawing to Tuatha and pointed to a place where all the soldiers were heading, at the end of that hall there was a cube much bigger than the others, whichever was more valuable to an army, it would be stored there.
If only at the entrance door he had already found a scale that could increase his demonic lineage, imagine in that huge building, surely there must have been a deposit of powerful materials and artifacts there.
The two left the first building firstly, but Nicola didn't forget to store the weapons in his space artifact before leaving, after all, he was assembling his own undead army, and even if those weapons were archaic, they would be well used by they.
Tuatha didn't care much, he was more interested in the knowledge he would acquire on that expedition, and the stronger Nicola was, the more he would be protected, after all he had decided to stick by his side.
Even though they were targeting the larger building at the end of the hall, they didn't miss out on all the smaller cubes that were scattered there. None of the arrays withstood their onslaught and were soon torn down, giving access to the buildings.
It was a very long job and they spent a few days searching everything in their path, Nicola was not a person who would leave anything valuable behind, after all he would need every possible resource to build his own strength.
Some buildings had dormitories, others were training spaces, offices, weapons depots, cafeterias and changing rooms. Everything that was to be taken was duly sent to the space rings and sent to the depot inside the space artifact.
He didn't even miss the cubes that served as buildings for these spaces. He had taken the ant queen puppet, Antoniette, to control her army of ants and dismantle those cubes in construction materials, it would be a great thing for the construction of his future tower, after all military buildings would be very resistant.
Within these spaces he found few interesting things, like high quality mana crystals and some metallic spheres that possessed the power of a specific element, a kind of ancient weapon. Of course what he had been looking for more was yet another demonic heritage like the one he had found, but it seems that there was none more to be found there, his last hope was in the main building.
The two were standing outside the larger building as they stared at it, it was the only one that still had the working arrays, certainly weathered, but still functional enough to set off alarms and take them both by surprise, even to kill them. Nicola used the same tactics as before and spent a long time trying to decipher the arrays that sealed that opening.
Even though it was formed from ancient runes, the pattern was much more intricate than the previous ones, even above Nicola's current level of arrangement formations. The much more elaborate design made hundreds of separate arrays work together almost like a set of gears.
Both of them spent days analyzing that formation until they decided to destroy a single rune that would impede the movement of all others, according to their calculations. Nicola used the same electricity technique to bring down that rune and make the entire system fail.
Everything happened as before, the runes turned reddish and emitted a hum before they stopped working and the whole chain of runes broke and shattered, slowly making room for the passage in the building.
Tuatha and Nicola waited a moment hoping that something would go wrong, everything had gone strangely silent.
Nicola felt a sense of urgency and turned around, the scene that his special senses and eyes brought to him was a great layer of energy filled with a life force coursing through the layer of dust several inches thick covering the floor, making it come alive.
