Number One Dungeon Supplier-Chapter 1395: Betrayal of the Research Rats

It was no brainer that Kraft would eventually decide to take the Research Demon Rats into his 'care'. However, he has to complete what Jin and the System had asked for him.

"The corpse catcher…? Ah, Prototype CXVV. The one that eats people to gain their abilities temporarily. I forgot those Demon Rat Generals loved to give fancy names to our subjects and imagined that they had complete control of it. They had forgotten that they were also Demon Rats that had mutated and some might have used the chance to bite back at the owner's hand." Transquick then asked one of his assistants to get the data drive with regards to the Corpse Catcher.

"This is awfully too easy. I can sense red flags coming up already." Tinda said as she was baffled by how the Demon Rats Researcher and Kraft had come to an agreement way too smoothly.

And just as Tinda had predicted, there was no doubt a twist to the entire situation. The assistant who was about to give the data drive suddenly got stabbed by another Demon Rat Researcher.

"You! How dare you betray us! I finally caught you in the act Dr Transquick! You will not leave this room alive as well as the oth-" Before he could finish his sentence, Kraft already sent a bullet right into his brain and walked forward to pick up the data drive from the injured Demon Rat Assistant.

At that point, a few of the assistants immediately revealed themselves to be assassins sent by the Demon Rat High Command and attempted to pounce on the scientists. Yet, their actions were instantly detected by the Night Foxes as their not so subtle movements were more than enough to prompt the Dark Elves to react.

Arrows flew even faster than the Demon Rat Researchers could even see and all the assassins were down to the floor without a sound.

"Guess, you need to vet your people even more thoroughly," Kraft said as he shrugged at Transquick, waiting for an answer for this betrayal.

"Heh. If I was killed by this encounter then it's my fate. But it looks like my gamble has paid off. And to be frank, I am actually surprised that all of my other assistants are alive…though I think some had no idea that this happened." Transquick surveyed the area and saw some of the Demon Rat scientists were shaking in their knees.

"See. I told you that this agreement was going way too smoothly." Tinda told Narris as she walked to a dead rat and kicked it. A few trinkets came out from the dead which she assumed that it indicated the rat's allegiance to the High Command. She pulled the trinkets out and showed them to Transquick, allowing him to decipher.

"Ah. The Mage General. I did not expect the one who is sponsoring us the most would be the one who will kill us compared to the other Demon Rat Generals but I guess it made sense." Transquick said as he told the rest that the trinkets were some sort of transmitter and there would be no doubt that the Mage Battalion would be here in no time.

"Then I believed that you need the rest of your data drives out here to prove that you all are useful to us?" Kraft asked and Transquick nodded his head, happy to know the humans caught on quick.

"If you are able to reach here undetected, I trust that you have an escape plan too?" Transquick asked and Kraft merely snapped his fingers and a portal emerged right beside him. The Head of Research laughed loudly and began shouting at his team.

"Everyone. Get all you can pick up and throw them into the portal, we can sort them out later! If the long ears can help us, it will be app-" Transquick suddenly felt like a thousand knives being pressed onto his body.

"Oh. Don't call them Long ears. They usually kill anyone who calls them that since you are ignorant of us, I guess they would let you off with a warning this time around." Kraft smirked and told the group to assist them while he opened a few more portals up so that the 'grand moving' would be a tad faster.

"Then Boss, I assume you are going to have all the fun to yourself," Narris asked Kraft as he pressed the elevator. He merely smiled and waved back at him.

"Of course, I am the boss after all."

And when he entered the elevator, the Devil already sensed a variety of magical auras from the top. "So they do have teleport magic as well."

"Don't worry. The assassins probably already disabled the anti magic barrier at the higher levels but I always have a backup plan." Transquick heard Kraft's comment and went to the closest computer to activate software module, allowing a few barriers to pop up just in time to interrupt their teleport magic.

Unknown to the group who were hurrying to clear the research lab, the emergence of the backup anti magic barrier caused not just the Demon Rat Mages' teleport magic to be interrupted, it even killed a few Demon Rat Mages who were teleporting halfway by causing them to be lost in ethereal space.

Kraft could sense the number of auras decreased drastically and though the help was not necessary, the kind gesture ironically warmed his heart knowing that the Research Head was trying his best to make relations with the Devil.

Thus, the trip to the top of the underground bunker was uneventful to the point that Kraft even had time to load all his guns without the use of any chi. "Sometimes, the feel of loading the gun does bring satisfaction to me, knowing that I had a hand in killing them personally."

But without any doubt, the moment the elevator door opened, the Demon Rats had no chance of winning at all. Each step the Devil took, each second that had passed, bodies dropped to the ground without a care. Bullets were spent and the smile on Kraft's face grew ever larger.
