Become a powerful shadow master in the new world

So the mastermind behind this is to kill Setsuna Himeragi?

How is that possible? This is when the person that Himeragi Setsuna was originally going to meet needs to appear.

If Himeragi Setsuna was really sent out by her own forces to be someone else's mistress, what better way to increase her favorability than by being a hero saving a beauty?

Reasoning completed.

Sid tilted his head, and the black pupils in his eyes gradually turned red and expanded.

"Oh my, I really am overthinking it. How is this possible? How is it possible that there is a force that goes to so much trouble just to send subordinates to others? And how could there be so many coincidences to form this conspiracy, and how could an ordinary extra like me just happen to guess the whole picture of the conspiracy? How could it be such a coincidence? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha."

A youthful and energetic voice came out of Sid's mouth. Although his face was full of sarcasm, his laughter was full of applause.

Strolling towards the alley on the side, black slime liquid oozing out of the surface of his skin and a magnetic and mature voice coming out of his mouth.

"I've...seen the script."

Chapter 37 Who is justice?

The time goes back to a dozen minutes before the explosion.

The teacher named Rudolf brought the artificial life form Astaruti to the center of the String God Island, the Cornerstone Gate.

"I can feel him here, Astraluti, go ahead and destroy everything here. Kill them all. No... this is where the Son of God was found. Although it is a cursed land, only His Majesty Sid, the Son of God, is qualified to kill the people living here. Don't kill them unless it is absolutely necessary."

Rudolf hated the management commune of this island, and in his eyes, these guards were also the running dogs of the management commune and deserved to die.

But this is where he met the Son of God. He didn’t know whether the Son of God moved to Gengami Island later or was born on Gengami Island.

If it was the latter, then this would be the territory of the Son of God. He told the Son of God that he wanted to sink the island, and the Son of God agreed. But the Son of God did not say that if he could kill the people in his territory, then he would not be qualified to kill.

As he said this, Rudolf took out a metal sphere from his clothes and threw it into the cornerstone gate.

After the metal sphere landed on the ground, a magic circle appeared in the sky. The huge magic power covered the entire cornerstone gate. The next second, the sound of an explosion resounded throughout the island.

When the smoke and dust cleared, all that was left was a pile of ruins and two people covered by a special barrier on the ruins.

"Orders accepted."

Astraluti seemed to have just reacted. The white magic power was activated and the white giant arm appeared again.

The giant wrist slammed heavily on the iron wall left in the ruins after the explosion. On the iron wall that had blocked the previous wave of explosions, magic symbols glowed faintly, as if trying to activate the magic defense that blocked the previous wave of explosions again.

Unfortunately, the building's defense mechanism has consumed all its energy in order to block the previous explosion and prevent the entire Cornerstone Gate from being destroyed.

Without energy, no matter how powerful the magic circle is, it is just a decoration. The giant arm easily blasted a hole in the alloy wall several meters thick.

As Rudolf, Astraluti and the others stepped in, the guards in the Cornerstone Gate finally reacted and rushed out to capture Rudolf.

Within just a dozen seconds, the guard walking in front met Rudolph and shot him without any warning.

Without any reaction to the guards' actions, he just watched them pull the trigger. A crazy smile appeared on Rudolf's rough face. Astaruti beside him moved without any orders.

"Rose's fingertips!"

A mechanical sound was heard, and magic power condensed into a white entity on Astralude's body. A four-meter-tall white giant appeared.

The magic formula on the enchanted bullet was immediately destroyed by the divine vibration wave driving magic formula engraved on it when it touched the surface of the white giant. Without the blessing of magic power, the fired bullet was not even capable of breaking the white giant's defense.

Ignoring the bullets fired by the guards, Astaruddy controlled Rose's fingertips and came in front of them, raising her giant arm high and then swinging it down.

Violence, pure violence.

How can an ordinary human body withstand this force that can easily shatter a huge rock?

The guard was directly knocked against the wall by the giant white arm. With just one hit, the guard lost his ability to fight.

Ignoring the guard lying in a pool of blood, the two men headed towards the bottom floor.

The further they went down, the stronger the defenses they encountered. Their opponents were the most elite heavy-armored troops of the Gengojima Guard, but they were just troops.

Cannonballs engraved with magic patterns, spells with various special abilities that attack from a distance, and magic bullets containing huge amounts of magic power whizzed towards them.

The one-sided massacre began.

No, it cannot be described as a massacre, because although the security officers lying in a pool of blood had lost their ability to fight, their lives would not be in danger as long as they were treated in time.

It only took them a dozen minutes to reach the deepest point. The only thing the so-called elite troops could do was to delay their progress.

This is a dark place buried deep under the sea, completely enclosed and without even a trace of light. It is also the foundation that supports the entire island. If this place is destroyed, Genshin Island will probably sink to the bottom of the sea within a day.

"boom!"

The iron door blocking the last floor was blasted open, and light from the floor above shone into this place that had been in darkness for decades.

What is surprising is that in the center of the room, the foundation that bears the weight of the entire String God Island is actually a glass cover with a diameter of less than one meter. The inside of the glass column cover is filled with liquid, and an arm is immersed in it.

"Oh... oh oh!"

As he approached the glass cover, Rudolph uttered a mixture of anger, joy, sadness and other emotions, tears streamed down his face, and he fell to his knees with his whole body trembling.

"The immortal body that was usurped from the hands of the Western European Church... I have waited too long for it to return to the hands of our believers!

Astralude, please pull out that hateful wedge for me and bring punishment upon this cursed island!"

Gazing at the arm that looked like an old man, wrinkled, pale but with a sacred aura, Rudolf gave the order.

"Orders accepted, Rose's fingertips!"

After receiving the order, Astaruti controlled the giant white arm formed by the magic power in her body and smashed it hard at the glass pillar.

"clang--"

A silver spear dropped from the sky and blocked the giant white arm.

"what!"

Unexpectedly, someone came to disturb at this critical moment. Rudolf picked up the axe again and looked at the person who came.

The visitor was none other than Setsuna Himeragi. Thanks to the guards' delay, Setsuna Himeragi managed to arrive before Rudolph destroyed the foundation.

"Stop. As a clergyman, do you want to let hundreds of thousands of lives on this island sink to the bottom of the sea? Do you want to commit such a crime that is intolerable in this world?"

A voice filled with anger and doubt came from Himeragi Yukina's still gasping mouth. She was angry at the crime of killing hundreds of thousands of people, and was puzzled as to why a holy clergyman would rather come to this island from afar, only to commit such a heinous crime and die together with the island.

"Want to stop me?"

Rudolph looked at Himeragi Setsuna coldly, but suddenly raised his voice.

"Look behind you, Sword Wizard of the Lion King Agency. Once you see it, you will know why."

The excited voice reached Himeragi Setsuna's ears, and the emotions of humiliation, excitement, and anger contained in it made Himeragi Setsuna involuntarily do what Rudolf said.

Because the first thing she saw when she arrived here was Astralude trying to destroy the foundation, she didn't have time to see her surroundings clearly, so when Himerahira Setsuna turned around and saw her arm soaked in liquid, her pupils trembled in an instant, and the spear she was holding lowered one or two degrees.

"This, this...what is this?"

"This is a legendary holy relic, the right arm of the saint."

The calm but angry voice continued to reach Himeragi Setsuna's ears.

"This island called 'String God Island' was built forty years ago. Sword Wizard, do you think there was enough technology to build a foundation that could support an island forty years ago?"

Looking at Himeragi Setsuna's face which turned paler as he spoke, Rudolf showed a mocking smile on his face.

"Of course not, then how was this island created?

It was a living sacrifice. The designer of this island, Senra Gengami, used living sacrifices to increase the bearing capacity of the cornerstone. The one who was sacrificed was the right arm of the saint worshipped by our Western European Church. Just because of such a ridiculous reason, the body of a saint was trampled by tens of thousands of people.

Tell me, should I be angry?

At this point, the emotions hidden in Rudolph's voice were no longer hidden, and he raised his voice.

"You said I committed a crime. What crime did I commit? I just wanted to take back what originally belonged to us. What crime did I commit?

Who is just, you who want to save the saint's body that was sacrificed on the island, or me who just wants to get back what was stolen?

Now, get out of the way, sword wizard."

After saying that, Rudolf picked up the giant axe again. After what he just said, his current mood has made him give up the idea of ​​letting Astraluti destroy it. He wants to destroy the foundation with his own hands. Only in this way can he vent his anger.

Just as Rudolph was about to pass Himeragi Setsuna, a silver spear blocked his way.

"Why, Sword Wizard, after knowing the truth of the whole matter, you...still want to stop me?"

Facing Rudolph's questioning, Himeragi Setsuna just lowered her head and spoke with tears in her eyes.

"Yes, I'm sorry, but please, I beg you, please, for the sake of the innocent lives on this island, give this island a chance. With current technology, we can quickly create a replacement to replace the holy relic. There is no need for you to be so radical."

"I'm sorry, what's the point of saying sorry? I admit that there are innocent people on this island, but we are not innocent. Those buried here are not your relatives. Of course you can say that.

If you wait until the truth is revealed before you think about replacing the foundation and making up for your mistakes, then the island itself is stained with sin. You admit your mistakes not after you have built the foundation, but because the island is about to sink. This is not guilt, this is not regret, this is fear of pain. "

Seeing that Himeragi Setsuna had not put down the gun, the anger in Rudolf's eyes was about to overflow, but thinking of Sid, he still suppressed his anger and said the last sentence.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, and you can't beat us. Get out of the way, Sword Wizard."

Himeragi Setsuna raised her head, with guilt in her eyes, but the determination in them seemed to tell others that she had made up her mind, and there was a resolute expression on her face.

"Although I have only been on this island for a few days, I have already met a senior who cares about me very much. For the sake of my senior, my classmates, and my own selfish desires, I cannot let you sink this island."

"Astaroth, do it."

Without further ado, Rudolf directly ordered Astaruti to take action.

----

Sitting on the armrest, Sid was wearing a black coat, and his face under the mask calmly watched the three people fighting below.

"It seems there is no chance of becoming a powerful shadow person."

Chapter 38: The Defeated Akatsuki Kojo

Sid's expression under the mask began to become solemn, and as the fight below became more intense, his expression became more solemn.

"No, no, this script won't work. I'm a shadow powerhouse, not a partner of justice."

After rejecting another script that popped into his mind, Sid experienced the feeling of being stuck for the first time.

"You'd better pray that I don't know who you are, you who are behind this, you have a hole in your brain?"

As a powerful shadow person, he is neither good nor evil. He can be a righteous partner or an enemy of the protagonist. Which one depends on the position of the powerful shadow person in the event.

But the situation like the one below, where each person has his own reasons, is definitely what Sid hates the most, because in this situation, no matter who he helps, he is wrong, and no matter who he helps, he is right. The correct answer from the perspective of the Shadow's Powerful Person in this matter should be the mastermind behind the scenes.

The incarnation plays the role of a third-party entertainer, and only stands out at the last moment to say that he is the mastermind behind the scenes, but he will not intervene. Instead, he will be the referee and decide who wins and who is just. He is a powerful shadow person.

But now the role of the mastermind has already been taken, and it is impossible for him to snatch a role that has already been played by someone else, so how can he insert himself into this incident as a powerful shadow master?

Just when Sid was worrying about this, two people broke in and joined the battle below, which attracted Sid's attention again.

"That's... Gu Cheng! Why is he such a wimp?"

The golden arc of electricity wrapped around a hand and collided with the white giant. The next second, the golden arc of electricity was destroyed by the divine vibration wave-driven technique engraved on the surface of the giant, and the owner of the arm, Akatsuki Kojou, was knocked against the wall.

The sudden intruder caused the three people who were fighting to stop what they were doing and look at the intruder.

"Fourth True Ancestor, why are you here? Wait, my Shikigami!"

Being besieged by the two and being defeated step by step, Himeragi Setsuna was the first to recognize Akatsuki Kojou, after all, he was the target of his surveillance.

"The fourth true ancestor is so weak! I didn't expect to meet him here. This is a rare opportunity. Astraluti, don't hold back on him. Kill him."

"Orders accepted!"

After hearing what Himehira Setsuna said, Rudolf also knew Akatsuki Kojou's identity. As Rudolf's orders were given, the white giant arm controlled by Astaruti became visibly more solid. At the same time, the silver spear in Himehira Setsuna's hand was also aimed at Akatsuki Kojou.

This is not difficult to understand. For Himeragi Setsuna, although after several days of surveillance she found that Akatsuki Kojou did not look like a conspirator who wanted to destroy the world, she still remembered what the Lion King Agency told her.

Destroying the Shikigami she was monitoring at this time and then appearing in this place made it hard for her not to suspect that the previous few days were the Fourth True Ancestor's disguise, and now the Fourth True Ancestor wanted to take this opportunity to carry out some conspiracy.

As for Rudolf, there is no need to explain. He is a teacher in the church and has a natural hatred for vampires.

If Akatsuki Kojou really has some conspiracy, the three people on the field now definitely wouldn't mind joining forces to kill Akatsuki Kojou first.

"Wait a moment, Himeragi Yukina, this is an order from the Lion King Agency. We must first work together with the Fourth True Ancestor to resolve this crisis. The Fourth True Ancestor will deal with Teacher Jian, and the two of us will deal with this artificial life form."

Just as the three were about to take action, a girl in a red uniform attacked Astarute and spoke to Himeragi Setsuna.

The spear in the girl's hand collided with the hand of the white giant, making a metallic collision sound, and was pushed away by Astralute with absolute strength.

This confrontation ended with the girl being suppressed. After she landed, her hair fluttered in the wind, revealing two bloody holes on her neck.

"That's... the uniform of the Lion King Agency, and more!"

All kinds of doubts filled Himeragi Setsuna's heart, and she was no longer able to understand the situation at the scene.
