Constructing-Style Wizard Chapter 239

Chapter 239:113. “Throwing Money” Spell_3

Translator: 549690339

In the vertical shaft entrance, the two semi-circular metal gates were violently broken open, with the doors severely deformed.

The two door panels hung in the shaft like dead leaves ready to fall from a branch, suspended by fragile hinges.

It seemed that there was no way to close the metal gate sealing the shaft entrance.

Iron Thorn Shield would need to send someone to install a new gate.

Noland Lee made a note of this to report back to Iron Thorn Shield.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, a sudden sound of gears turning startled him.

Noland Lee's body shivered as he turned to look at the shaft, his gaze falling on the cable used to pull the lifting platform.

There were four vertical metal chains.

The top of the chain was connected to the traction device in the ceiling, while the other end hung in the shaft, extending far below.

Now, the traction device in the ceiling was struggling to move, and the rusty gears emitted a grating noise.

The device was slowly pulling up the metal chains, hoisting something from below.

The four chains were taut. It seemed that whatever was being hauled up was quite heavy.

“What the hell! Who activated the traction device? I've been walking around in this food storage warehouse, and I haven't seen the switch for the device… Could it be controlled by a remote control, or is the switch on the seventieth underground level, not in this food storage warehouse?”

Noland Lee watched the bizarre scene in front of him, slightly dumbfounded.

Looking around the food storage warehouse, it was indeed a perfect setting for a horror movie.

Not only was there no illumination, but the floor was also covered with aberration secretions. Filthy and gloomy, it could easily serve as a location for works like Alien or Dead Space.

Glancing at the four chains being pulled back, Noland Lee, despite his alarm, became a little curious.

He approached the edge of the vertical shaft entrance and leaned out slightly, casting his gaze into the darkness below.

Before entering the underground, he had drunk a Night Vision Potion.

The potion's dark vision effect was limited, but the range of Deconstruction was quite large. If there were no obstructions all the way down, Deconstruction could completely examine the bottom.

Noland Lee, his face towards the darkness, cast out a series of Deconstruction techniques.

At the same time as the system message came through, faint voices came through from the vertical shaft.

A man lowered his voice and whispered harshly:

“Fucking hell, the noise from the traction device must have alerted the security personnel above! Why can't you find time to fix it?!”

“Damn, if you want to fix it, you go and fix it! Why the hell are you bossing me around? I'm not your father, why should I indulge you!” The speaker's voice gradually rose, clearly angered by being ordered about.

“Shut up! You two damned fools, choose the right time and place to argue.” The third person's voice appeared, suppressing the oncoming dispute.

After he finished speaking, he called out to the entrance above:

“Hey! Are you from the Iron Thorn Shield Security Corporation? We are maintenance workers from the Re-forged Association working on the seventieth underground level! We heard gunshots and came to check! We're not bad guys!”

Noland Lee heard the shout.

He glanced at the system message with a cold smile emerging at the corner of his mouth.

[System Message: ]

[You are about to initiate Deconstruction on “Living Alchemy Products”.]

[Based on your understanding of living alchemy and the level of related passive skills, the energy points required for this Deconstruction have been reduced to 110 points.]

[System Message: ]

[You are about to initiate Deconstruction on “Unnamed Alchemist”.] [Estimated to consume 6,000 energy points, reaching 100% completion.] Maintenance worker?

Which maintenance worker requires 6,000 energy points for Deconstruction?

Which maintenance worker has two living alchemy products with them?

Those two living alchemy products were clearly Kent's mentioned “alchemy slaves.” Transforming people into slaves was something that only illegal alchemists of Black City could do.

And to say that, “I am a maintenance worker of the Re-forged Association (sarcastically repeated)…”

Who are they trying to fool!

Noland Lee reached into his backpack, grasped two fragmentation hand grenades intended as a trump card, pulled the safety pin without hesitation, and threw them down.

These two fragmentation hand grenades were impact-activated.

Within 0.5 seconds of removing the safety pin, they would not explode upon impact. After 0.5 seconds but before 7 seconds, they would explode upon touching something. When the 7 seconds had passed, they would explode even if they hadn't touched anything.

About 3 seconds after Noland Lee released them, the two hand grenades exploded with a bang.

From this, it was not difficult to conclude:

Those three guys were about eighty or ninety meters away from the shaft entrance.

However, that was not important. What was important was the blast wave and the debris from the hand grenades, creating a deafening noise in the vertical shaft.

Metal fragments from the hand grenades flew everywhere, hitting the walls of the shaft and producing a series of crisp sounds.

The two alchemy slaves were torn to shreds by the fragments, becoming tattered corpses before they could even scream.

[System Message: ]

[You have eliminated “Alchemy Slaves” x2 with fragmentation hand grenades.]

[Passive Deconstruction activated!]]

[You have obtained the following Deconstruction results:] [1. 110 Energy Points.] [2. General panel information for “Alchemy Slave”:] [Name] Alchemy Slave [Type] Alchemy creation of living alchemy [Alchemy Recipe]
