Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1219 Secret Lab

"She can already do something like that with just 8 nodes. Imagine what she could do with 88?" Serafall commented after seeing Furoufushi drop a meteor coupled with a Gravity Amplification Formation on Chigiri's head.

"And depending on how she uses those 'constellations' and 'stars', it wouldn't be impossible for her to cast a large-scale Ritual Class Magic all on her own," Kunou added while admiring the sight.

Kisuke didn't say anything else and turned his attention to the other battlefronts. While Furoufushi won't be able to kill Chigiri, she's more than enough to contain him for some time with just those two spells, 'What is this guy doing?' Kisuke asked himself while keeping Szayelaporro under his radar.

Like what he and the girls were doing, he's keeping watch on everything though it didn't seem that he had noticed their viewing spot, 'His focus is on Claire? Well, considering how she's the only unknown variable here, it's understandable.'

Kisuke was actually already done with his preparation to permanently kill all these [Chained] and in reality, it's easier to do that than permanently remove the chains themselves. However, he's still curious about one thing. How did Szayelaporro take command of all the [Chained]?

There's still a missing piece that's preventing Kisuke from seriously flipping the whole table in fear that something might hit him back and those around him, 'I prepared for all the scenarios I could think of, but that doesn't mean I'm prepared for everything.'

In any case, Szayelaporro just has to make a move and he'll be able to ascertain things and finish this whole ordeal.

[Sir! We've detected a massive spike in both Reiatsu and Magic Power northwest of the outpost. From our current prediction model, we estimated that it's way beyond our explored region!]

While listening to various reports that have been coming in, most of Mayuri's focus is on the directive that was sent to his device just now, [To all Captains and Lieutenants. You are to return to the Seireitei and be prepared to be deployed at any moment's notice. This directive is from the Central 46 and the Zero Division. This directive is a top priority and supersedes any current and past orders. Any failure of compliance will be subjected to a Class A punishment and removal from the current position.]

'What the hell is this?' Mayuri questioned himself while reading the ridiculous directive for the 3rd time. It's not that the directive itself is ridiculous, but the punishment is unreasonable, 'It even came from the Zero Division... What are they up to?'

He contemplated for a bit before saying to all the clamoring members of the 12 Division around him, "I need to take care of something. All of you continue to monitor the situation and record everything."

As he turned around against the shocked researchers, Akon came running towards him, "Captain! Are you going to go against the directive?"

"Of course not. Even I won't be safe if I ignore the Zero Division's directives. And from the looks of it, they're serious about enforcing it."

"Then where?"

"..." Mayuri became silent for a moment before answering, "To prepare for something. Akon, if things get a bit dangerous in Hell, immediately deploy the emergency escape module."

"But that means abandoning it. It's going to be a huge loss."

Mayuri resumed walking and said before exiting the building, "I know what I said."

Akon looked at his back and recalled what he had been doing these past few days, 'He opened another lab but it was in the Rukongai. And ever since then, no one has seen Nemuri. I wonder what it is for?'

Akon turned around and resumed his work. Whatever it was, he knew that he couldn't have discovered that lab by accident, and it could only mean that Mayuri trusted him with this knowledge, 'Are we in for another upheaval?'

After making sure that he isn't being followed, Mayuri deployed his decoy that will enter his 'fake lab' and do some menial experimentation with Magic.

Once he confirmed that everything was in order, Mayuri made his way further into the Rukongai before a Magic Circle appeared under his feet and he disappeared.

He then reappeared inside a moldy, humid, and suffocating room. It was a very familiar room for him since it was the room that was located in the now deserted Nest of Maggots that contained him for a few years before Kisuke invited him to work for the 12th Division.

Mayuri didn't reminisce and moved to the right side of the cell and touched a certain part before injecting his own Reiatsu.

The next second, dust became unsettled as a new door appeared in front of him. Mayuri didn't let it open fully and hurriedly entered it. As a response, the door also started closing and went back to look like an ordinary wall that hadn't been touched for years.

Beyond the door was a fully operational lab and various glass tubes filled with translucent purple liquid. In the middle of these glass tubes were throbbing orbs of flesh.

Mayuri quickly checked their status by looking through various screens displaying logs and alerts. After making sure that there was nothing wrong with them, he hastily made his way towards another wall which was once again, a disguised door. As he went through it, a wider and very well-lit white room with almost nothing inside it aside from a few pieces of furniture that you'd normally find inside a house.

With such a design, it's obviously tailored to be livable and there are indeed other people inside it. One is someone expected, Mayuri's partner and the latest and 8th iteration of the 'Nemuri Series', Nemuri Hachigo.

Normally, Nemuri would come running toward him whenever she felt his presence, but this time, she was busy practicing.

With her small stature, she put her hand forward with a focus that couldn't be found in someone of her age. Immediately after, a blue Magic Circle appeared and blue flames were ejected out of it.

Once flame ejection stopped, Nemuri relaxed, wiping the sweat that pooled on her forehead, "Huuu..." It was then that she finally noticed his presence and panicked.

"C-Captain!" She nervously shouted while running towards Mayuri.

"How is it?" Mayuri simply asked.

"Reporting to Captain! I still don't have an accurate figure but I can confidently say that using Magic and Soul techniques is several times easier compared to before due to the almost nonexistent collision of Magic Power and Reiryoku!"

"Continue your testing."

"Understood!"

If one is observant enough, one would notice that Nemuri possesses the same type of body as Soifon.

Nemuri ran towards the center of the wide room once again to continue her work. Meanwhile, Mayuri turned his attention to the only other person present, currently lazing on the couch while playing with a game console and snacks scattered around her.

Mayuri wanted to berate her and ask how she got all this furniture inside the room but didn't have the energy to do so right now, "I changed my mind. Give me all the documents and materials referring to the 'Homunculus'."
