Suppose we have a Lagrangian $L=L(a,b,c,d)$ which is a function of the fields $a,\, b,\,c,\,$ and $d$. We denote the variation of $L$ wrt to a given field, say $a$, i.e. $\frac{\delta L}{\delta a}$, by $E_a$. Then $L$ is gauge invariant when $\delta L = \delta a\, E_a + \delta b\, E_b +\delta c\, E_c+\delta d\, E_d = 0$ (+ tot. derivative). This gives $\delta d = - (\delta a\, E_a + \delta b\, E_b+\delta c\, E_c)/E_d $ (+ tot. derivative). The total derivative terms above don't affect the gauge transformation. From the above well-defined equation $\delta d$ can be obtained for arbitrary $\delta a,\, \delta b,$ and $\delta c$ with no necessary relation b/w $\delta a,\, \delta b,$ and $\delta c$. Doesn't this imply that there is an infinite number of gauge transformations? If yes, isn't that absurd?
