Chapter 404 Honest Jobs

The government man took out a binder full of carefully typed pages, and checked down the list before speaking again. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

"Right, that should work. The researchers are ready now, so we should get started as soon as you have eaten." He announced.

"Would you like to join us? We made plenty." Doug asked.

The man shook his head, while Colonel Valerie took a seat at one of the tables across from the silent church representative.

"We won't be more than fifteen minutes, if you would like to let the researchers know of the updated plan and the order for our entry."

They finished breakfast quickly, and found the two security guards at the entry to the dungeon, both equipped with some sort of fancy equipment in a backpack and clipboards.

With a nod, they fell into position, and the team entered.

Karl was the last to enter, and as he stepped through, he found himself with a much smaller group. The dungeon had split them into teams of five, as the government man had said was possible.

"Ew, it smells so bad in here. Like the laundry room of the boys dorms mixed with an overflowing latrine." Lotus complained before covering her face with a bandana.

"Thank you for that vivid mental image. But you're not wrong. The smell of an Ogre camp will not be at the top of my list of favourite memories." Karl chuckled.

Their researcher was already making notes and a light on the backpack was blinking, showing that it was doing ... something.

Karl had no idea what it recorded, but if the specialists said it was important, he would believe them.

"Do we have the manpower to clear this dungeon?" The researcher asked as he counted the five of them, which included two Clerics.

That was not usually the recipe for a powerful team when it was this small, but once Karl called out the beasts, things changed dramatically.

Thor bugled a challenge that had the nearest group of Ogres coming their way, Rae called out her Golems, and Remi crawled up the pole on the researcher's backpack, nearly toppling him over backwards.

"He's not an Elite. Regular humans have balance issues." Karl joked as he lifted the confused snake off the terrified researcher.

[He's bigger than Sister Morgana. Why can't I climb him?] Remi asked.

[Because regular humans are weak, and his backpack is heavy. Your weight was going to make him fall over on his back.]

Tessa ran up Thor's back and settled into position after Rae spun a quick web saddle for her.

The researcher looked shocked at the dramatic change in circumstances, and it was obvious that nobody had thought to inform him of the abilities of the team that he had been sent with.

To the researchers, it likely didn't matter. The Elites were here to gather data for them, and that was the extent of what they thought of the matter.

Karl watched as the metre in the man's hand went crazy and peaked out for a moment, before settling down again.
