Remuel walked around the facility and looked for the experimentation chamber. He easily moved around without any hindrances as all people within the facility are currently unconscious and unable to move. Thus, he was able to explore everything fairly easily.
"Damn, just what did these people do to you to deserve this [People of Earth]..." Monologuing as he explores further into the facility, he found multiple people inside stasis chambers being used as samples. He checked the computers and logs to see what they have been injected with.
"Forced to feed magic crystals imbued with a certain magic type to forcefully gain aptitude. They really don't know what they're doing..." Remuel looked up to check the amount of people within the facility. The people that were being experimented on reached over to hundreds. It wasn't as much as Santuria's Council experiments, but this was still something that could potentially be dangerous. Remuel continued to look through the logs of the other experiments as they were forced to gain magic that they could not control. "What's even the cost of using this magic..." Remuel pondered as he examined more logs left by the laboratory testers.
"Whoa there... The hell do they mean by [Balance Break]? This is some crazy reference to one of my favorite stories." Remuel read through the contents of a person that was fully covered in a mixture of red and white armor with a draconic design. This easily reminded him of a certain novel he read, making him feel all sorts of déjà vu and discomfort. "Ugh, it would be bad if we end up facing an enemy that can not only double his power, but to also divide mine in half." Remuel had no choice but to await for further commands from Serkyrio regarding what to do with the experimentation subjects.
He looked around once more to check if there are any more interesting developments in the experiment before disabling it all. It was then he found another person that had gigantic hands holding that person up. "[Genshin]? or maybe [Honkai]? Can't really tell but I think Draxus could examine this one. Oh right, the logs." Remuel quickly read the logs in front of the stasis chamber that held the unconscious subject in. "Hands of Puppetry, this concept made by a certain team allows a person to use direct manipulation of its targets. Another function is restraining with string that cannot be broken by even the sharpest blade in this country, allowing you to do all sorts of things such as dislocation of limbs of your target... Damn..." Remuel narrowed his eyes as he felt extremely uncomfortable with the kinds of abilities they're putting on innocent people. If they ended up developing trauma, or causing mayhem in their pursuit of world peace, they would have to deal with the highly dangerous enemies.
While waiting, Remuel suddenly detected two presences moving around the room, as if preventing Remuel from investigating further. Remuel felt a major power coming from the two presences that are completely unfamiliar. At first, he thought about a hero inheriting the power but it was currently impossible. It was then he thought that there could be reinforcements coming from [People of Earth] but with the process of elimination, he made a decision to step forward. It was then he felt some sort of tripwire stopping him from moving forward. At the same time, he was instantly targeted by an attack from a different angle.
He dashed backward and instantly felt another tripwire, thus another attack came from an entirely different direction, causing him to avoid it drastically. But just as he dodged, he felt another one and was attacked. "Tch! Troublesome!" Remuel got impatient as he decided to block the next attack with his scythe instead. But the projects that were shot were small clumps of ice that could still potentially damage Remuel, they were deflected in different directions, causing more tripwires to be triggered. He was then attack from all directions. "Ahh! Annoying! [Amalgam of]-!" "[Soul of Greed]!"
Just as Remuel tried to activate [Amalgam of Destiny] to use [Belial] for speed, his artifact instantly disappeared as he heard the shout of a person. He looked around and tried to look for the person that stole his artifact. After he focused his gaze to his front, he widened his eyes as a person who held the artifact was right in front of him. He had a gaudy look as most of his clothing looked extremely rich. From the mantle, down to the pants that he wore. His face was filled with extreme satisfaction as he held the [Amalgam of Destiny] right in front of Remuel. "This is such a valuable weapon, I'll be taking it now. [Amalgam of Belial]! [Bring forth endless acceleration to me]!" In that instant, the young gaudy man disappeared and reappeared right behind him, about to swing his hand to slice Remuel. Since the speed Remuel had was stolen, his dodge wasn't able to get far enough to receive a clean cut right at his back. Remuel then coughed out blood as he distanced himself from the young man, but the problem is that he triggered another tripwire, causing another attack of ice clump projectiles to attack him from a direction. But now with a hyperspeed young man that stole his [Amalgam of Destiny], he was forced to dodge, causing more tripwires to be triggered as he started to feel extreme danger to himself.
He stopped making monologues of complaints, as he was clearly being defeated right now by the two presences. One of them was hiding from sight, while the other was overwhelming him completely. "[Fog of Pestilence]!" Remuel's blood pressure finally rose up to the point where he started to let out extreme killing intent. Since the [Amalgam of Destiny] already granted the speed, the young man was able to keep it until the book comes off from his hands. But Remuel was not gonna give a chance to two people that have cornered him. "[Deal], [Crimson World]."
And that instant, everything in the room was coated by Remuel's blood.
Remuel's power had surged out completely, he wasn't using divinity as he can still recover from the current situation without using it. But using the deal was already a necessity. It revealed all the tripwires surrounding Remuel which made him know how to cut all the tripwires down. The covering of the entire room allowed Remuel to find the other person attacking him, and allowed him to surpass everything in humanity without reaching divine levels.
"Your judgement has come, [Artifact Magnetize]." He saw the young man trying to wipe off the blood that scattered onto him. Thus he quickly retrieved [Amalgam of destiny as he magnetized a small metal rod on the spine of the book to his hands. After taking it back, he quickly returned it to [Interdimensional Storage], preventing it from being stolen. A thought crossed his mind that his scythe could also be stolen, but immediately realized that he has to use a chant on the artifact for it to be stolen by [Soul of Greed].
"Tch! Our cover's blown! Immediate Retreat!" The two men that were coated in Remuel's blood quickly escaped using an artifact that instantly teleported them somewhere. Due to instant teleportation, Remuel was not able to pursue them and tried to trace them with [Amalgam of Destiny] but there was a more familiar presence that entered the facility, along with multiple guards.
Remuel sighed as he felt exhausted from using a huge portion of his mana and blood, bringing him close to death. He then heard the door from the entrance of the room he's currently in open up, and Arlesk was the person sent by Serkyrio.
"Whoa there! You went batshit crazy Remuel." With a slightly shocked tone, Arlesk looked around the room that was completely covered in blood. Remuel's complexion was completely pale, and for him to use [Deal with the Devil] twice within a week, it was not something should be done as he was still recovering lost blood. "Don't worry about it Arlesk, [Revitalized Transfusion]." Remuel instantly absorbed all the scattered blood within the room, making a quick recovery. "Only ten percent were lost this time huh?" Remuel tried to stretch a little as he felt a little bit more blood trickle down from his back. "Crap, this should work then." Remuel took out a [Blood Potion] from his [Interdimensional Storage] and gulped it down to instantly recover his lost blood. He forgot to drink it before which made him feel embarrassed.
"Aight, how about we go arrest these guys now?" Remuel smiled as they arrested all the noblemen involved in the experiment.
