Very nearby to the fight stood the armored van, smooth and surprisingly hard to spot in the snow. Not hard for a vampire or trained sniper though, but fairly safe by virtue of it's thick plating. In it was a small unit of vampire soldiers, armed with machine guns and a collection of grenades, flash-bangs and EMP's. The vampires had no rush of getting out though, they were absorbed with drinking a single drop of Martin's blood. As they received their drop and slumped onto their chairs to the side of the van, Martin tapping into their minds and sending them to sleep. He could send and take information at will from these drug addled minds, and as he'd done many times before he cleared their minds of any activity to replace it with packages of information. He'd let their opened minds process the information and then took it back and replaced it with other information. This connection allowed him to outsource processing power. He called it 'Brainstorming'.

Though he still couldn't quite grasp what it was he could tell the patterns of the demon assassins movements. Though Axel's mind was full of doubt, he shot vampire after vampire.

"̢̀͡ Roll to your right side! "̸̶̴͠
"̢̀͡ Step back! "̸̶̴͠
"̢̀͡ Mine! "̸̶̴͠
And the death expectancy of a vampire soldier dropped significantly.
After that he send his thoughts to Rhyss.
"̢̀͡ Well Met Mercury Soldier. Are you overwhelmed? Would you call out for help? "̸̶̴͠

Cedric descended down the mine and fished a map from his pocket. It was fairly detailed and he was sort off surprised at this, but he knew his benefactors did their research well so he simply followed the winding path trough the labyrinth of depleted corridors. After a few hours of walking he saw something reflect the light and he rushed over. He found the sarcophagus...
