As soon as everyone entered the passage, they all looked at each other, wondering what they should do next.

Since he was the leader of the investigation, Septa immediately explained their current situation. "It's not good at all. The layout of this building is far too different from what I have in mind. Our plan won't work this way, especially with those demons roaming around."

"That's true…" Shale looked down while putting his hand on his chin as if he was contemplating their next move.

Noel also looked down, but he wasn't thinking about their plan. Instead, he was recalling every detail about the landscape of the building.

'Hmm… the room is weird. We haven't seen anything much currently, but there is that one white coat that is different from the rest. I don't know the purpose of that coat…

'But when I look at the hallway and the area near the entrance…' Noel closed his eyes, imagining the area.

On the right side, Noel could see a reception table. He often found it in the administration building. With it being placed near the entrance meant whoever came had to go there first to explain their purpose of visit.

But not many administration offices would have a lot of chairs. Noel remembered that on the left side of the room, specifically right in front of the entrance, there were a lot of chairs lining up together.

Just by looking at the number of chairs, he could see that this building was visited by a lot of people.

And there were a lot of rooms from what he had seen this whole time. From the way they were positioned, it seemed that the rooms weren't that identical. In other words, if he could explore all those rooms, he would be able to understand the identity of this facility.

Last but not least, the hallway itself. The height wasn't that much different, but this was the first time he had seen a hallway this wide. It felt like six people could walk side by side without any problem.

'What's the use of having this wide hallway other than wasting space? There is also a reception counter like an administration office… And that white coat… Still, if all the rooms are different, we might have to check every single room, which is extremely hard in the current situation…'

"Iadre."

"Iadre."

His name had been called out repeatedly, but Noel was too focused on his imagination that he didn't hear it. Ultimately, someone grabbed his shoulder to wake him up.

"!!!" Noel's body shook as he looked around, wondering what had happened. But he soon realized that he was the problem when everyone was staring at him. "Y-yes?"

Septa sighed. He wanted to berate Noel for being careless, but it wasn't the time to do that. "Is there any detail you picked up from looking at the hallway? We're planning to split our team even further and try to look around a few floors at once. But we need to understand the situation first."

"Hmm… It's a good suggestion. I have noticed a few details. From the way the doors are positioned, it seems that each room is different. However, I can't say the same about the rooms on the upper floor without looking at the landscape and their position. So, we might have to confirm it. Having a smaller group will help us do that."

"The building should be visited by a lot of people. That's all I can find for the time being…" Noel looked down as if he was disappointed by his own ability.

The others were completely speechless since he could grasp that much within a short time.

But his opinions gave a lot of options for the group.

Septa looked around as if he was calculating their number. At the same time, he was expressing his idea. "In that case, should we split the group into five? Each group shall be led by either a captain or an elder. As for their positioning…"

"Since there are more demons on the bottom floor, I'm going to lead the team on the bottom floor. I'm good at investigating, so I might be able to find an entrance to a hidden nest as well."

"The Stone Lord shall move to the second floor. Although it's not the ground floor, you should be able to feel the vibration of the ground as long as you're not far from it, right?"

"The Plant Lord shall go to the top floor, if possible, the rooftop. He wants to check if there is no more hidden danger from above."

"Clara and Shale will lead each group to two other floors of your choice. Just find the safest one and move as quietly as possible."

"If we end up alarming the demons, those who are spotted will immediately leave the building at once and bring all those demons away. The rest will find any spot to hide immediately. If spotted, do the same thing. Any objection?"

Septa had given them all their tasks. But there was one big question. "How are we going to split our people?"

"Since there are five people from my squad, including me. Each person will have one of us. The Demon Extermination Squad will divide ten people into five squads and split the remaining two into the groups with the lowest combat power.

"Clara should be able to go alone, so six of you divide into three groups. As for me, I only need Iadre with me. He seems to be familiar with the layout, so it's better for me to use him."

They all looked at each other. On the one hand, they didn't expect that Septa had such a high opinion of Noel. On the other hand, with all the details he grasped, they could understand Noel's worth a bit.

In the end, Noel and Septa had three Demon Extermination Squad members to fill their number. With Septa dealing with the detail and Noel handling the map and layout, the three Demon Extermination Squad members would have an easy time since all they had to do was follow Septa's instructions and kill the demons.

Now that they had gone to their own group, Septa finally said while opening the door, "Let's go."
