"Give up, the ancient city has probably been moved."

"Ah? Then I'm not..."

"Yes, that's right. Your mission has failed. Go back and report your findings to your superiors."

"But my radar shows..."

Sid suddenly stopped and turned his head slightly to glance at Kirasaka Sayaka. His cold eyes made Kirasaka Sayaka swallow the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

What on earth is going on with this guy’s experiment…how could he change his expression so quickly?

"This is the territory of the evil scientist under Shadow. Do you know what this means?

Giving up the mission now will be good for both you and me. If we continue investigating, it will be more than just a small fight now."

"I know, I know."

Kirasaka Sayaka wanted to retort that she didn't care about her own life, but for some reason, looking at Sid's cold and ruthless eyes at this moment, the boundless fear suddenly broke down her psychological defenses.

"Well, that's good. It's not worth it to fight against that evil shadow just for you..."

Thanks to Kirasaka Sayaka's understanding, Sid relaxed his cold attitude and returned to normal, walking towards the passage at a leisurely pace, and the atmosphere returned to what it was at the beginning.

Just like that, as the two of them communicated with each other, Sid and Kirasaka Sayaka disappeared into the passage, and silence returned to the deepest underground experimental base.

……

"Da da da……"

The black figure quickly flew through the depths of the underground, passing through laboratories that looked like something out of a Frankenstein movie, and finally stopped at the end of the corridor.

He pushed open the door, glanced around, walked slowly inside, and his fingertips lightly touched the instrument made of special metal.

"The texture is real, the magic trail is real, and the visuals are perfect, but why..."

A deep voice sounded, and the corners of the black figure's mouth curled up under the mask, and blue-purple flames emerged from his excited eyes.

"My heart is beating so fast!"

Pitch-black magic power gushed out, instantly covering the entire room. Tiny magic powers entered the runes on the ground, replacing the original flowing magic power, and controlled the entire magic circle along the pipes.

"found it……"

The various high-tech instruments in the room began to flicker like the screen of an old TV, and finally shattered like an illusion.

The entire laboratory changed its appearance in an instant. The original high-tech instruments disappeared, leaving only an empty room that looked impoverished as if it had been looted. Apart from that, there was an underground passage several meters wide and high in the corner of the room.

"Slurp... I can already smell it."

Strolling to the underground passage that was obviously dug no more than a day ago, the black figure took a deep breath, ran his tongue across his lips, floated into the air, and flew into it at an extremely fast speed.

With the help of the flow of wind to find the way and avoid traps, Sid passed through the dark passage without any light, and a ray of light appeared in front of him.

Gold, gems, materials, treasure chests...

In the huge basement, countless gold was scattered on the ground and piled up together. All the illusion instruments seen in the laboratory before were here. Various magic materials and rare metals were packed in treasure chests and arranged in an orderly manner. In the glass tubes filled with special preservatives, there were floating corpses of mythical beasts, monsters and alien species.

Walking out of the underground passage and looking at everything in front of him, Sid put one hand on his face, his body trembling slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.

“Haha, haha, haha, hahahaha, hahaha…”

The crazy laughter resounded throughout the entire underground space, and the echoes piled up layer by layer. The various treasures piled together even vibrated slightly because of Sid's excited laughter.

"It's pure natural, not artificial or made by alchemy, hahahaha..."

I picked up the gold, silver and jewelry on the ground and examined them. They were not artificial gold and gems that had been tainted by magic or were unusable and only looked good, but pure natural treasures without any signs of use.

What a wealth! What a wealth this sea of ​​gold in front of us is. Let’s put it this way, the small treasury that Sid had when it was bombed was less than one twentieth of the amount here.

It can be said that with this wealth, he will no longer have to kneel on the ground and serve others for a little bit of gold coins.

One-fifth of the art he liked? He bought it outright.

"Well, but before that, these things that have no collection value need to be disposed of."

Looking at the experimental instruments and research materials in the experimental glass tubes, Sid showed an uninterested expression.

Yes, yes, these things may be more precious than the gold, silver and jewelry on the ground, but unfortunately, Sid is not interested in them. They are just impure things from external forces. They are of no use to him and cannot be displayed to show off.

Isn't it just right? He is not interested in these, but other forces may not be interested. He can make a fortune from this.

"Dragon, griffin, siren, king kong...what are these two?"

Looking at the two glass tubes in front of him in confusion, Sid made a puzzled sound.

It looked like the corpse of some large animal, but in Sid's eyes, the system tree of this creature in front of him was out of tune with this world.

The other glass tube contained a piece of meat that looked like it was possessed by a demon, and like the other side, a new separate system tree.

"Ding dong!"

While Sid was thinking, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly made a sound, interrupting Sid's thoughts.

"Tsk, I'm too lazy to think about it. It's been a while. Let's move all these things away."

After glancing at Rias's message asking where the others were, Cid put his phone down and looked at the treasure trove in front of him with a bloodthirsty smile.

With all the magic power in his body surging out, he found a way out of the underground space in the shortest time possible, and then began the tedious work of moving things.

When all the treasures were moved and Sid successfully arrived at the place where Rias left, the negotiations between the underworld and the heaven had just begun.

"Well done, hehe, Sid, did you see that? His Majesty Leviathan was praising you just now!"

No, I think it's just your illusion, Rias.

Thinking of how Chito Sona's sister patted her chest, as if she had helped him a lot and told him to just ask for whatever he wanted, but in fact she had already used her body to block all his attempts to approach Chito Sona, Sid curled his lips. If his sister hadn't asked him to maintain a relationship with Rias, he would have quit long ago.

But... can I ask for anything? I don't need money now, so I can ask the devil for anything.

Sitting on the stool in the plane, waiting for the negotiation between the "Underworld Devil" Serafla and the "Heavenly Joker" Durio to be completed, feeling the two slimes of Rias leaning on his arms, Cid's brain was thinking divergently.

I really can’t think of anything. How about asking the devil for more money?

Ha, I suddenly feel so vulgar!

Thinking of this, Sid himself laughed at this sudden idea.

"By the way, Captain Rias, where is Yuto? I have some information that I need his help with."

While thinking divergently, he suddenly remembered that his investigation data was still missing a Kiba Yuto. Sid immediately perked up and wanted to find Kiba Yuto to temporarily complete the investigation.

"Yuto, he..."

Hearing Sid's question, Rias loosened her grip on Sid's arm and placed her palm under her chin, looking embarrassed.

"What happened to Yuto?"

Seeing Rias like this, Cid couldn't help but feel puzzled. He glanced around and found that Kiba Yuto was not here. This was quite amazing. Even Gasper, the embarrassing vampire in a cardboard box, was dragged here. How could Kiba Yuto, who treated him as a knight, not come?

"He said he found something that needed to be investigated. He had something else to do and couldn't come over, so he asked my soldiers to go with him to investigate."

Another voice sounded, and Zhiqu Cangna walked over from the other side with a cold face and sat down, while looking at Rias with a bad look.

"...Ah, Cang Na, weren't you in there negotiating with your sister? Why are you out now?"

Being stared at by Chitoge Sona, Rias knew that she was the one who had done something wrong and was too embarrassed to retort, so she could only smile awkwardly and change the subject.

"The general outcome of the negotiations had actually been agreed upon before the negotiations. Now it's just the final consultation. With my sister around, it's impossible for me to participate, so I came out."

Rias seemed to have successfully changed the subject while explaining, but from the fact that Zhitou Cang was staring at Rias, it could be seen that she was not fooled.

"Hahaha, it looks like the negotiation results are very favorable to us, otherwise you wouldn't be so relaxed, Cangna."

Pretending not to notice Chito Sona's gaze, Rias stood up calmly and poured a cup of tea for Chito Sona.

"Well, the negotiation result is certainly in our favor. It was the church that attacked us first. Unless they are able to prove that we participated in the curse, plus your Sid's investigation that proves all of us are innocent, we are naturally invincible."

"Hey, my Sid..."

"..."

After looking at Rias who was lost in her own world with contempt, Chito Sona then looked at Sid with a strange look.

"Speaking of which, Sid is really absurdly good at intelligence. Counting the time my sister tricked him, it probably took him less than a day to figure out the trajectory of all of our actions..."

Zhichu Cangna's voice stopped abruptly, and he was stunned when he saw Sid's body suddenly became very stiff and stood up abruptly.

"I'm sorry, I need to go to the bathroom!"

Saying this, Sid walked past Zhitou Sona and tried to go outside, but Rias suddenly grabbed his arm.

"Wait a minute Sid, you don't look right."

Rias asked this question out of concern for Sid's thoughts.

"It's okay, I just feel a little uncomfortable. I'll be fine after lying down in the toilet."

"No, this doesn't look like everything is alright. These two don't have anything to do with each other."

Rias, let go!

Feeling the terrifying magic power approaching here at an alarming speed, Sid's face became paler and he became more anxious.

"I really just need to go to the bathroom..."

"boom!"

The door was knocked open and slammed heavily against the wall with a loud noise, but what attracted people's attention more was the black figure who rushed in from outside, carrying a blonde nun on his back.

"Sid!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Sid, I didn't like Delta."

Knocked to the ground in an instant, Sid had a desperate look on his face as the stupid Delta licked his tongue. Asia, who fell off Delta, was also apologizing to Sid, but it didn't matter anymore.

"Hey, Sona, she's the one from that night, right?"

Rias asked in a stiff voice while shaking her body.

"Although his temperament is a little different, it's him from the looks of it."

Zhi Qu Cangna seemed quite calm, if she could hide her shaking hands...

Chapter 218 Confirmed

What to do now?

This thought came to Sid's mind as Delta rubbed his face expressionlessly.

Did time stop and erase everyone's memory?

No, that’s too much trouble. There are just too many people seeing it!

If only a few people saw it, Sid wouldn't mind taking some time to clear his memory, but if he had to eliminate dozens of people, he'd better spare him. It's very difficult to control the force to step on the ant without killing it.

"Sid, what's wrong with you?"

Delta's puzzled voice brought Sid back to his senses from his thoughts. Looking at Delta's stupid appearance with his tongue hanging out and his tail wagging behind him, he felt a surge of anger in his heart.

Honestly speaking, he was very happy when he first met Delta. After all, the friendship between them growing up together was not fake. But he forgot one thing. Delta... was the only naughty child among the Seven Shadows!

Then tell Gamma or Beta and ask them to take Delta away. My mission as the Shadow Power Master cannot fail because of stupid Delta.

"Let go of Sid!"

After a glance, they confirmed that the woman who pounced on Sid was the woman who attacked them that night. Rias and Chito Sona immediately stood up, used their feet to distance themselves from Delta, and at the same time gathered magic power on their fingertips and pointed it at Delta, scolding him loudly.

"Captain, what's wrong?"

Seeing the commotion here, Kitten from Tower City walked over to Rias and asked. When she saw Delta clearly, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously looked around for her sister.

Naturally, the private negotiations between the heaven and the underworld could not be held in public. Apart from the personnel specifically responsible for the negotiations, only the two people whom Dulio and Seraful trusted could enter. Otherwise, it would be hilarious if an internal conflict broke out in the middle of the negotiations.

Except for these few people who were able to enter, most of the people brought by both sides gathered outside the conference hall to guard the negotiations between the two parties.

At this moment, everyone in the field, who had already been attracted by the loud noise when Delta entered the door, but did not attack immediately because Delta did not show any aggression, and her harmless appearance and the look that she knew the devils, saw Rias and Sona Shitori like this and subconsciously raised their weapons.

"Hey, demon, what are you making a fuss about? Isn't this orc your friend?"

Xenovia broke the tense situation. She did not recognize Delta as the beastman who attacked them. Her only knowledge of Delta came from the beastman that Cid mentioned she met by chance. She immediately complained about Rias's fuss.

"Hah, friend?"

Even though she knew that she and the others were in a very dangerous situation - that they could all be killed by Delta at any time, Rias still made a sound of surprise, with part of her attention focused on Xenovia.

"Captain Rias, she is the beastman I told you about the day before yesterday who knew Sid-senpai."

A faint voice came from her ear. Rias looked at the kitten in Tower City who was talking to her in a low voice, then looked at Delta who was shaking his tail in front of her, and blinked in confusion.
