As soon as he finished speaking, several Night Doctors deftly pulled one small arcane machine after another from their coats and swiftly installed them on the floor.
Then came a teleportation device and a beacon. The entire setup took barely two seconds.
And in the very next instant.
The arcane mechanisms inscribed on the teleportation device lit up one after another.
Under Lynn's bewildered gaze, fully mechanized, beak-masked Night Doctors in Powered Armor poured out of the teleportation Magic Array like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
The moment they appeared, they began setting up defensive positions in the hall.
Clack-clack-clack-clack-

Five anti-mechanical Night Doctors, armed to the teeth and carrying firearms, swiftly surrounded Lynn to protect him.

Signal jammers.
Anti-Evil Spirit detectors.

Precisely guided grenades whizzed around the hall, weaving through the air before dropping onto the Wanderer being beaten below.
