The Lost Morningstar

🌷Chapter 15🌷

♡Salem POV♡

Did the spooky ass corridor take us anywhere special or of use to us?

Yes.

When we came towards the final stretch it felt like we've been walking for hours but as soon as we saw those iron doors I realised a sign of relief because all I know is that of we continued to walk I'd rip out my eyes and eat them, the iron door wasn't locked which surprised me and Lucifer but instead of questioning the weirdness we just said it fuck it and went in.

Dear all seven holy Gods we didn't expect to be thrown into Frankenstein's laboratory because this is the vibe I was getting from this room. Everywhere had little science stiff that looked important but I failed at science therefore I was completely baffled at what I was looking at, one thing I did recognize was the emerald creatures that where hibernating in glass cyro chambers or the beginning of what will eventually become a fully grown creature.

"Clearly this man wants us to know about his secret little lab I mean why else bring us besides gloating about your brain power. It's almost as if he's collecting various animals and testing on them to create obedient soldiers, he could have more especially as he has an endless supply in chambers ready to be freed." Lucifer is right as well as the growing animals in tubes there are multiple chambers filled with thousands of different animals/hybrids of various sizes, there's some humans as well. "This is much worse then anything before."

I snoop around more and a table with a dead corpse on it grabs my attention, the poor man has been gutted and injected with a lot of liquids but what really interests me is the hammer besides the table. "I've seen this in books I believe it's called a forge hammer mostly commonly belonged to forge masters aka powerful people with powerful mind able to create anything including their own army of loyal soldiers." It's said that with this hammer the wilder can use it to create what they desire but it requires a lot of power as well as training as it's not easy to become one of these masters.

"Haven't seen a forge hammer in forever almost forgot their existences, it seems like we are in for some trouble...if this man commands a bunch of dead creatures at his will whilst mastering magic PLUS being a skilled swordsman then we are truly fucked."

"All we need to do is simply slow down his work and I know exactly how to do that." I grab my magic bag where I pull out some exploding dust Linken gifted me before we left. "If he doesn't have an army then we can focus our attack on him and only him." I head towards the glass chambers where the sleeping creatures lay and blow the dust around the area making it a danger zone. "Soon as we grab your mother we dip and caboom explodes his army then we return with our own and kill this son of a bitch."

"I knew I married the right one, you truly are a genius."

"I'll try not to let that compliment get to my head and as a safety measure we should steal his hammer just as a precaution." I somehow manage to lift the heavy thing and place it in my bag securing it safely. "Now that's done we still have small amount of time to find what the fuck this liquid is."

"My bet is that he used the essence provided by the Forbidden Forrest and managed to convert it into a serum that helps boost his soldiers essentially become a drug like a steroid if I'm being honest." I take small samples and seal them in my bag where I can look over them properly or have a trained professional do it for me.

Just as we were about to leave a flap in the ceiling opens allowing this chunky liquid to come falling down into a tube from the looks of it the liquid seems to be the remains of an animal just how I murdered the bear and it turnt into a green mess leaving on small crystals behind, the tube seems to be pushing the remains are pushed onto table probably awaiting for the forge master to repair it.
