God of Tricksters Chapter 591 – Promise

Chapter 591 - Promise

"Holy sh*t!" Theo immediately leaped back as he was scared. "What did I just see? Am I in a horror movie?"
The human corpse was wearing a blue shirt and black pants, covered with a long white coat.
"Still, clothes like this… Is this guy a scientist or something? To make a lab in this place, it's kinda suspicious." Theo frowned and looked around, sensing no presence around him despite letting out his voice.
His sound kept echoing, but at the very least, he knew there was nothing that would ambush him in this place.
Although it was gross, Theo used his Telekinesis to take the lamp off its hanger and tried to move it around the corpse, wondering if he could gather some information from him.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in his clothes. Theo had even used his Telekinesis to check his body.
'Nothing?' Theo frowned. 'I think I should go back to where I came from. I mean, exploring further is my main objective, but if I can gather all the lights around here to look around, I should be able to learn something here.'
With that thought in mind, Theo used his Telekinesis to fly a few inches above the ground while carrying the corpse. The moment he returned to the first corridor, he dropped the corpse and started gathering all the lamps around him.
There were a total of seven lamps. Although they were dim, it was still better than nothing, especially since they could illuminate a certain distance together.
Now that he had prepared for the second exploration, he returned to the big room and was shocked by his discovery.
"Seriously?" Theo gulped down. The floor seemed to be made of ceramic and the ceiling seemed to be higher than he thought.
When he looked around, Theo found nothing, so he explored slowly until one of his lamps hit something.
Tak.
The sound made Theo's heart skip a beat as he turned around, seeing his lamp stopped by some sort of glasses.
Theo immediately moved his lamps around the glasses and realized it was a cylinder with blue-colored liquid inside it. The tube had a similar size to the hole leading to this tunnel, but nothing was inside.
He explored every inch of the tube and finally found something when he reached the top of the tube. It was an eyeball. And looking at the size, he thought it was a hobgoblin's eyeball.
"What is this…" Theo gulped down. "Have I found something that I shouldn't have? But the Holy Knight Order will find this sooner or later."
Theo looked down and started thinking. "I wonder if they abandoned this place because they knew the Holy Knight Order would find this place? In that case, that can explain why there's no electricity here and only some lamps are still on. They must have destroyed the data in this place as well, but why is there a human corpse?
"Or is the scenario like this… The humans have made this place to experiment on the goblins, and it's a failure, resulting in the goblin storming out of this place and killing the researchers? Either way, I need to find something in this place."
Theo was confused as he couldn't come up with something good because of the lack of information. Since he had no idea what was going on, Theo decided to explore the whole place.
Still, there was a thought arising in his mind.
"Wait a minute. Should I let the Holy Knight Order handle this matter? To be honest, I have already stepped past my bound." Theo looked down, wondering what he needed to do.
Surprisingly, God of Mischief took the matter to his own hand by sending a message.
[Remember your promise to me.]
"…" Theo fell silent when he read the notification. "This message… He wants me to use this place to create chaos in Italy? But if I do this carelessly, the one who builds this place will hunt me down. I really need to be careful."
Theo contemplated his choice and sighed. "Well, it's true that an experiment lab like this can create a big chaos in the media. And those who are related to this experiment won't have an easy time either. Just by giving this kind of information to an independent media alone is enough, but… I'm not going to have my hand directly involved in this.
"And even if the Holy Knight Order finds this, they may only cover it up to avoid their involvement. In fact, the Holy Knight Order may bury this place to make sure this place can't be found. And if I ask the scouts to search this area, they will know I have been here and know what's going on. It will just risk my life."
Theo bit his lips as he began formulating his plan. "Now, what should I do…"
While Clone Theo was occupied with his approach, Theo led the group to the other villages without saying anything regarding the underground facility.
Because his clone was investigating the facility, he also needed to fight alone without making anyone suspicious. Hence, Theo changed his plan and eliminated the goblins at a slower rate. He even emphasized teamwork instead of getting more kills.
Theo eliminated the goblins with Ava's help and managed to increase his level three times. Obviously, Agata couldn't comprehend Theo's change of plan and became suspicious.
Theo only shrugged his shoulders, telling her that he had realized another thing within the group and chose this way. He asked her to trust him, which she did.
Enrica and Ava were concerned with Theo's change as well and tried to ask him the reason, but Theo was adamant about keeping it a secret. He promised them that he wouldn't be playing with their lives.
Little did they know, Theo was exploring the underground facility with all his might. Unfortunately, he couldn't continue for long since he would have spent too much Magic Power… It would become even more suspicious, so he recalled his clone and made a different approach.
