180 Red Light Distric (1/2)

After rendering the fourteen guards unconscious, Raven went down the roof and dragged every single one of the guards inside. He finished tying all of them up while Bradley was re-adjusting his state. The technique he used earlier was something that he hadn't mastered yet.
Bradley created this move and named it as Terra Stun, it uses some of his minimal understanding of Earth Laws to immobilize everyone in a certain area for a brief moment, however since he hadn't mastered this technique just yet, he couldn't use it repeatedly. At most he could do it one more time and that's it, further attempts would just result in failure.
Raven didn't want to take chances so he told Bradley to use this technique as early as now. Now that they reduced the number of guards roaming around, they have more room to move and scout inside.
Bradley finished recovering, the unconscious guards wouldn't wake up until tomorrow so there's no need to worry about them. Both him and Raven left the warehouse and traversed the shadows, making very sure to stay as hidden as they could.
While they moved, both of them spread their consciousness to the maximum. Each guards that came nearby would automatically faint and be dragged at an inauspicious corner. The two proceeded to clear out the eastern gate to create an opening for the Ellen and the rest to come over.
Raven and Bradley made a quick work out of the guards in the eastern gate. After isolating the fainted guards they sent a signal for the rest to come over. Once Ellen and the rest arrived, they were tasked to take down the rest of the guards and wait until Raven or Bradley released another signal.
The two then moved towards the dungeons of the Mort Family Estate according to what was written on the map. The entrance to the dungeons was somewhat hidden from plain sight and under surveillance as well. According to what the earlier infiltrators reported, there's no one guarding the entrance but it was filled with all kinds of traps and alarms.
There is an inconsistency from the reports though, it was the kinds of traps that the previous infiltrators listed and triggered. From what Raven observed from the reports, he reckoned that they must be replacing the traps very often in order to catch people off guard.
Raven and Bradley arrived at the general location where the dungeon entrance was. Raven unleashed his spying capabilities to the maximum since he didn't want to mess up the operation.
\”There is at least ten kinds of traps in there. Some are dangerous pitfalls, some are arrow and spike traps, some are net traps or alarms.\” Raven whispered to Bradley as he observed the sight in front of them. He also added, \”The door is also another trigger to a trap. We can't touch this door or else everyone in the estate would be alarmed. We need to find a member of the Mort Family and get their insignia, that's the only way we could enter.\”
\”Is that so?\” Bradley asked, when he saw Raven nodded he said, \”Wait for me here.\”
Bradley disappeared in a flash, Raven patiently waited from his hiding place. After a couple of minutes, Bradley returned, carrying an unconscious noble on his shoulders. When Bradley placed the noble down, Raven got into work and immediately searched through the noble's belongings, he then found what he was looking for.
It was a golden ring with the Mort Family's symbol engraved on it. Raven took if off and nodded towards Bradley.
\”I got it, step where I step Uncle. Let's be careful.\”
After saying this the two stood up and walked towards the entrance with Raven on the lead. Bradley followed his instructions and stepped where he stepped. As they moved, no traps were triggered at all and eventually they arrived at the entrance of the dungeons. Raven raised his hand and placed the ring inside a very inauspicious socket on the wall.
The entrance shifted and opened by itself, not triggering the trap placed on it. As soon as it opened, Raven and Bradley instantly smelled some questionable substances in the air making them frown in disgust.
Raven took out two bottles of high-grade Moonshine and passed one towards Bradley. He then said: \”Empty the whole bottle, this way we won't be affected by the drugs in the air.\”
Without any hesitation, both of them emptied the whole bottle of Moonshine, instantly allowing them to enter a heightened state of mind. Their alertness and attention to details was raised and they won't be affected by the substances in the air due to their enhanced brain activity.
The two walked forward and made sure to not make any noise. They even had the same thought and started walking on the ceiling in order to not be spotted.
The road towards the dungeon is somewhat similar to cave entrance. It was a tunnel that eventually leads towards a large excavation underneath the Mort Family Estate. Once the two arrived at the end of the tunnel, they had an overview of where all of the Mort Family's wealth was going to.
